2016年上学年第六周长沙市一中天天练3
(2015陕西质检二，D）题材:学校生活词数：447 限时:7分钟Whether it is an elementary school,a middle school，or a high school in the United States,there will always be an awards ceremony at the end of the year.Though it varies from school to school①，there are a few that are given by most schools across the nation.
The first one is given from Grades 3 to 8 and it is the Honor Roll Award.In elementary and middle school，this award is used to recognize academic excellence.This award is also separated into②two groups: A Honor Roll and A/B Honor Roll.It is given out at the end of a school year and students who receive all averages of 93 or above (90 in some states) on a final report card receive an A Honor Roll，and students with grades above 85 （80 in some states）receive an A/B Honor Roll。

It is to reward students who have worked hard and received all A’s or A’s and B’s。

In high school，this is changed a bit，but still can be classified as the same type of award.The difference is that instead of using the scale(等级）of 100，they use a grade point average(GPA) based on a 4—point scale.They recognize students with a high GPA as “Honor Students”.If the students keep it up for all four years of high school，then they graduate with honors.
Another notable award is the President's Award for Educational Excellence。

This is given by the President’s Education Awards Program each year to students all over the United States.This award is offered to elementary school,middle school and high school students。

To be eligible （有资格的）for this award, elementary school and middle school students must earn an average grade of 90 or above on a 109—point scale。

High school students must have a GPA of at least 3.5.Students must also have a high score on a statewide or national standardized test or have a recommendation from a ually this award is given at the end of
the year。

It is a certificate③with a signature from the president along with a letter of recognition.
However，many people confuse the President's Award for Educational Excellence with another award,the US Presidential Scholars Program.Even though both have the word “President” in the title，they are completely different awards。

While the President’s Award for Educational Excellence is relatively easy to achieve,the award from the Presidential Scholars Program is not.To earn the honor of being a Presidential Scholar,a student must be a high school senior with
outstanding④standardized test scores.

（2015河南联考，B）题材：社会教育词数：419限时：6分钟I once knew a high school teacher who made，in my mind,a curious comment。

Referring to①a naughty student，he remarked，with a tone of gloomy②resignation，“People don't change."I knew the kid well.He was what one would call a“juvenile delinquent(少年犯)”.But if schooling held no promise of making positive changes in kids，what was the point of teaching？
My own son，Alyosha，growing up，was athletic,energetic，and occasionally hard to handle.But he never showed the least interest in tools,or working with his hands in any way.The result was that he couldn’t tell a screwdriver from a paintbrush。

I recall one day when I fussed under the car,calling out him to bring me an adjustable wrench（活动扳手）。

He fetched a pair of pliers（钳子).“No，”I pleaded while trying to hold an oily car part in place。

He went back into the garage and returned with a bar。

“No，no，"I corrected him。

“The adjustable wrench！For loosening a nut。

”In his own defence,he exclaimed③,“We ll，I don’t know!”Years passed.And then,one day，well into his 20s,he told me he had decided on a technical school:machinery technology。

I nodded approvingly，but already knew that it was a challenging field,full of moving parts，tools，and dreaded④math。
