Art is an important part of education, not only on its own but in the rest of education as well. However, in this information age, advanced technology in school has gained more attention than art. Sometimes when the school has a tight budget, it is usually art rather than technology that becomes the first thing to be cut.Anyway, the significance of art can't be ignored. First of all, in school it can help students develop a variety of life skills such as communication skills, problem solving skills and self- expression skills. Secondly, for high school students, those who arc involved in arts classes can have higher test scores. Besides, for some students, art seems to be motivation for coming to school because it’s a subject that they can outshine, which eventually balances their educational experience. New technology surely offers many benefits to some aspects of education, making teaching and learning easier and more effective. For example, technology simplifies tasks that take much longer to do, like conducting research or finding information. But advanced technology has bad effects such as the risk of being overweight, tiredness and even potential mental health problems, while art doesn't. On the other hand, unlike art, no technology can develop students' critical (批判的) thinking skills and a creative mind, both of which can help them to find successful careers after they graduate. Furthermore, no technology can help students to learn to bear responsibility, develop their imagination and increase their confidence.Generally, art should not be replaced with advanced technology in schools and the last thing to be cut out of school curriculum.【参考答案】任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）76. replace 77. attention 78. significant/ important 79. various80. motivation 81. creativity82. responsibility 83. confident 84.

DCEAF(五)----(2013·赣州市十二县/市联考)[1]The research, which followed 200 students for four years indicates that women consistently outperformed men in their studies even though they had their courses with almost identical Alevel grades.[2]An analysis of the results showed that while 65 percent of female graduates were awarded, only 35 percent of male graduates did as well. Girls are known to outperform boys at school, but this research showed that the trend continued at university.[3]Fion a Smith who led the research said, “The research shows that the difference has something to do with schools in general.”[4]“It also shows something about ________ for working women in terms of pay and promotion. Women work harder at school, harder at university, and do better at both, but they still receive less pay.”[5]The research found that female students were more faithful, less likely to miss lectures, and more likely to believe that their marks reflected their abilities than male students. Female students were also more likely to ask for and receive support from their professors.[6]Women were also more likely to choose their universities because they liked the courses offered.[7]In contrast, men were likely than women to miss lectures due to “other affairs” and “laziness”， and to believe that playing sports was an important part of university life.[8]Generally, people think that women's success comes from more emphasis on coursework, but the research showed that female geographers at Brunel did better in their exams than in their coursework.[9]Dr. Smith said, “Most women feel that getting grades is the most important part of university life. They believe that they need to work harder in order to compete in the maledominated environment they will encounter at work. Good grades are viewed as an ‘insurance policy’ for success. Men, on the other hand, prefer going out and playing sports to academic work.”[10]“This research shows how important it is to get young people working hard and teach them the value of higher education，” he said.1．What is the main idea of this passage?

Lady, I beg you to look where you're going！” A man complained to a journalist yesterday.[2]In fact, of more than 1, 000 people crossing 20 different roads in Seattle, 10% were listening to music, 7% were texting and 6% were having conversations on phone, the journal Injury Prevention reports and it estimates there was a 5% rise in the numbers of pedestrian deaths and injuries from June 2012.[3]The texters were four times more likely to ignore red lights or fail to look both ways before crossing.And it took almost two seconds longer to cross the road.Listening to music seems to shorten the time taken to cross the road, but when they were doing it they were less likely to look both ways before crossing.[4]Kevin Clinton, from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, said, “Looking properly when you are walking is as important as when you are driving, sotake care not to be dangerously distracted, whether by mobile phones, listening to music or being caught up in conversations with other people.Road users need to be tuned in to what's happening around them and shouldn't do the wrong thing at the wrong time.We have always told motorists to look out for pedestrians.Now we are increasingly telling pedestrians to ________.A change in attitudes, similar to efforts around drunk driving, will be important to limit the risk of pedestrian misbehavior.”Thank you!1．Why does the writer introduce the man's experience in Paragraph 1?

Today, this art form is facing the danger of extinction as the younger generation is mostly interested in pop culture.A Peking Opera project for primary and secondary schools was launched by China's Ministry of Education. But it has met with a cold reaction from the public. More than half of the 1,000 respondents from ten big cities expressed doubts about the practical meaning of the project in the survey conducted by the Social Survey Institute of China. The project plans to add 15 Peking Opera pieces into music courses in 200 schoolsin ten provinces. The pilot programs will last from March to July next year. At present, teaching materials and video tapes are still in production, China News Service reported.

They also understand the purpose of the educational project. However, they wonder whether it is necessary for every student to learn to sing Peking Opera, when they are already stressed from endless exams.
