To do this, teachers and actually everyone else in a community, should play a role as a ―cognitive coach‖ to students, helping develop good thinkers among our youth. The best way for you to become a cognitive coach is to seek out and engage school children and adolescents in meaningful conversations. The objective here is to get kids talking about what they think, how they feel, and what they believe whenever and wherever you may find them. It may be in a classroom. It may be at the grocery store. It may be at a basketball game. It doesn’t matter where as long as you engage students in a topical conversation and, hopefully, even a debate. Mainly, you want to encourage students to voice their opinion about things. Get them to take a position on ―this thing, or that thing,‖ and ask them to support their positi on with evidence. Curiously enough, the simple process of engaging students in real life conversations and debates will serve to strengthen what they have learned in the classroom, and help them试卷第2页，共13页create their own knowledge about a subject or a topic.Learning indicates that a student has been exposed to material, understands the material, and can recall the information. Knowledge, on the other hand, goes beyond recall and includes information processing, application to other situations, consideration of meaning, and contrasting with other concepts. Naturally, the topic of conversation you engage in with one of your learners will differ from student to student, and in the level of complexity based on child’s age and developmental level. Even a kindergartener has an opinion about things that are going on in his or her life. Engaging in conversation with any members of your learning community in ways that get at what they have learned and what they know will help them develop higher order reasoning skills.A stud ent’s synthetic thinking(综合思维) process occurs when a respected adult asks a question, particularly a question that requires reflection. I think all adults in a community have a responsibility to help children with this process, with the goal of producing independent thinkers.1、According to writer, what most helps develop students’ thinking? A ．Enlarging one’s knowledge. B ．Learning from respected adults. C ．Attending instructional programs. D ．Making evidence-based arguments.2、Which is the best question raised by a cognitive coach? A ．What have you learnt recently? B ．Will you pay by the credit card? C ．Where are you going this weekend? D ．How do you like this basketball team?3、The writer mentions a kindergartener in Paragraph 3 in order to _____. A ．emphasize the importance of being a good thinker B ．suggest that education should start at an early age C ．prove that even children have their own ways of thinking D ．explain the necessity of choosing proper conversation topics4、What is the main purpose of the passage? A ．To state an education idea. B ．To assess a teaching strategy.C．To introduce a learning method.D．To compare different education methods.When Barbra -Streisand discovered in 2003 that a photograph of her California beach house was among 12,000 photos on theInternetas part of a -collection by photographer Kenneth Adelman, she did what any famous person would do:hit him with a $50 million lawsuit. But in trying to hold back the images, she caused a different outcome. Her legal actions led to almost half a million people visiting the website, viewing and copying the photos within a month. Ever since then, the effect of letting public know something you are trying to keep secret has been called the―Streisand effect‖. The problem for anyone trying to suppress information is that the Internet is the world’s biggest and most efficient copying machine. Put a document on to a connected machine and it will spread. So when you want to be famous, you can’t, but if you find -yourself in the spotlight and want to erase -yourself, you cannot.There is no shortage of examples of the Streisand effect. Nine-year-old Martha Payne created a simple blog, posting the meals her school served. She took a photo of what was barely a filling meal by anyone’s standards. With the photo, she filled a comment, ―Now Dad understands why I am hungry when I get home.‖ The thing did not go too far, until the local authority banned little Martha from doing that again. Martha posted a supposedly final post called ―Goodbye‖, explaining everything. Once the media found this out, things went from bad to worse for the authority. Now the blog has more than 9.5 million page views. Martha has even expanded her blog by including pictures of school meals taken by other kids from all over the world, like Germany and Japan.We can find similar examples throughout history, to be frank. Man has experienced the Streisand effect ever since the birth of mass communication. Why does it exist? Every time you are told not to see what’s in the secret shiny box wrapped in gift paper, you’re going to do everything in your power todo exactly that! Just realizing that knowing something about someone is harmful to their status, we will want to know that piece of information. This is exactly the human nature. This is what lawyers and authorities should be familiar with. Unfortunately, a few of them fail to grasp it.5、The underlined word ―suppress‖ in Paragraph 2 probably means________.A．give away B．look intoC．cover up D．search for试卷第4页，共13页6、What speeded up the spread of Martha’s story? A ．Parents’ complaints. B ．The authority’s order. C ．The photos of other kids. D ．Supporting from the school.7、What is the last paragraph mainly about? A ．The root of Streisand effect. B ．The influence of Streisand effect. C ．People’s reaction to Streisand effect. D ．Historical examples of Streisand effect. 8、What can be inferred from the passage? A ．Streisand effect benefits most famous people. B ．It’s not a good idea to argue against authorities. C ．The ban on something may have opposite effect.D ．Turning to the law is a perfect way to get one out of trouble.The girl was hanging by her hands from the railings of a balcony(阳台的栏杆). The balcony was on the twelfth floor of the high-rise block next to his. His flat was on the ninth floor and he had to look up to see her. It was half-past six in the morning. He had been awakened by the sound of an aircraft flying dangerously low overhead, and had got out of bed to look. His sleepy eyes, moved from the blue sky which was empty of cloud, empty of anything but the bright disappearing arrow of the aircraft, and then rested on the hanging figure.He really thought he must be dreaming, for this sunrise time was the hour for dreams. Then, when he knew he wasn’t, he decided it must be a scene in a film. There were cameramen down there, a whole film unit, and all the correct safety precautions had been taken. Probably the girl wasn’t even a real girl, but a d ummy(假人). He opened the window and looked down. The car park, paved courts, grass spaces between the blocks, all were deserted. On the balcony rail one of the dummy’s hands moved, desperately. He had to believe then what was obviously happening. The girl was trying to kill herself. She had lost her courage and now was trying to stay alive. All these thoughts and conclusions of his occupied about thirty seconds. Then he acted. He picked up the phone and dialed the emergency number for the police.The arrival of the police cars and the rescue of the girl became the focus of talk for the people ofthe two blocks. Someone found out that it was he who had called the police and he became an unwilling hero. He was a modest, quiet young man, and was in relief when the talk began to die away. Again he was able to enter and leave his flat without being pointed at as a kind of St George and sometimes even congratulated.About a fortnight after that morning, he was getting ready to go to the theatre, just putting on his overcoat, when the doorbell rang. He didn’t recognize the girl who stood outside. He had never seen her face. She said, ―I’m Lydia Simpson. You saved my life. I’ve come to thank you.‖9、What did the man do first after he got up?A．He looked down from the window.B．He went to see the noisy aircraft.C．He called the police to save the girl.D．He hurried to check who was outside.10、The moment the man saw the girl hanging there, he felt it was _________.A．scaring B．desperateC．unbelievable D．dangerous11、We can learn from the passage that __________.A．the man disliked to be talked aboutB．the girl was unwilling to be rescuedC．the police arrived quickly on the sceneD．the girl was actually an actress in a filmCome out and let us teach you how to skydive today!

This is because the consumption of the forests has affected not only the animals living in the area but also the people. And reforestation is about the rebuilding of the forests that have been severely destroyed. It can offer a lot of benefits when the recreation is successful.51、 This includes collecting seedlings(幼苗) that are native in the area to make sure that there is a natural reconstruction of the area. Some additional trees which are not native in the area also need to be planted. 52、 The importance of having multiple species of trees is considered to make sure that the needs of other species that will live and grow in the area are met. Destroying a forest is easy but rebuilding it is really hard. 53、 The plan must include accurate spacing on plants and trees. This is to ensure that they won’t cover each other while they grow. 54、The forest greatly helps in the reduction of the air pollution. Trees are responsible for the production of oxygen and absorption of carbon dioxide. 55、 It is there for a reason just like everyone else on this planet.There cannot be a better way to restore the balance of nature than to increase the forest area. We must remember that the forest is a natural habitat of wide variety of animals and plants. In this manner, there is no substitute for reforestation.A．And global warming will speed up the destruction of forests.B．Keep in mind that you can’t just plant the seedlings anywhere.C．Recreations won’t work until all these details have been considered.D．So a good plan is needed to make the reforestation a successful one.E. The forest also protects us from typhoons and other natural disasters.F. There are many things to be done when it comes to this type of effort.G. It is important to make sure that they are suited to the climate and the type of soil.五、书面表达（题型注释）56、假设你是光明中学高二（1）班的学生李华。

Other days, I feel a sense of expectation within me just thinking about fall that makes me want to burst. Tonight, all five of us were in the family room doing our own things.At this moment, my littlest kid is my number one trouble and my number one joy. He has a tooth on the way and although it‘s such a tiny thing, it‘s causing so much grief. I‘m holding him a lot and I‘m not going to lie. I live for his afternoon nap (小睡) so I‘m able to actually get dressed and use the restroom.The big E is starting school soon. The other day, I found myself a bit depressed about the end of summer and the beginning of another school year. I looked out of our front window with eyes that were heavy and a bit teary. Then, I suddenly realized just how silly this end of summer depression of mine is. I can‘t change time. But, I can change my emotions and my thoughts. I decided not to spend my final days of summer vacation walking around with a sad face. I decided to hug the last few days of summer and remind myself that before I know it, we will be back in our school routine and all will go well.This week we plan on meeting teachers. I‘m taking my girl to have her nails done before her firs t day of kindergarten. We want to bake a few dozen cookies. We‘ll take our evening walks as usual and stay up late. And last but not least, I‘ll get sc hool cloth ready, I‘ll pack lunches and write lunch notes, we‘ll read―The Kissing Hand,‖ like we normally do, and I‘ll tuck (掖好被子) my third grader and kindergartener in their little beds before the big first day.Thank you summer, you‘ve been warm and wonderful, you‘ve been sweet and sticky, you‘ve been refreshing and exactly what we need. And your sunsets have been amazing, so thank you.56. According to Paragraph 1, the author __________.A. feels excitedB. has mixed feelingsC. feels worriedD. has bad feelings57. How will the author spend the final days of the summer vacation?A. Live a simple life.B. Stay at home and relax herself.C. Treasure the vacation.D. Walk around with a depressed face.58. From the passage, we can learn that the author __________.A. is fond of reading novelsB. has two annoying childrenC. often takes evening walksD. has no time to get dressedBCCBEver walked to the shops only to find, once there, you‘ve completely forgotten what you went for? Or struggled t o remember the name of an old friend? For years we‘ve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of ageing as wrinkles a nd grey hair. But now a new book suggests that we‘ve got it all wrong.According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s – much later than previously thought.Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we retain them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years it‘s been assumed that brain, much like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive (认知的) tests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifically, order people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving.Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual speed– how fast you can push a button when ordered. However, with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with ageing. A recent US study found older people were much better at controlling and balancing their emotions. It is thought that when we‘re younger we need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as we get older we‘ve learned our lessons and are sub-consciously aware that we have less time left in life: therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy.59. Barbara Strauch probably agrees that __________.A. the young are better at handling important thingsB. people‘s brains work best between their 40s and 60sC. ageing leads to the decline of the function of the brainD. wrinkles and grey hair are the only symbols of ageing60. The continuing research has found older people perform better on __________.A. vocabulary testsB. number abilityC. perceptual speedD. body balance61. People are happier with age because __________.A. they learn to value the time leftB. they know how to share feelingsC. they cannot focus on negative aspectsD. they do not realize the possible dangers62. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People get wiser with age.B. People get more forgetful with age.C. People get happier with age.D. People get more self-aware with age.BAAACEveryone procrastinates. We put things off because we don‘t want to do them, or because we have too many other things on our plates. Putting things off – big or small – is part of being human. But procrastination does have consequences. When your procrastination leaves you feeling discouraged, it is time to take action, and one of the best ways to get rid of it is to make an un-schedule.An un-schedule is a weekly calendar of all the ways in which your time is already accounted for. You consider not only your timed commitments such as classes and meetings, but also your untimed activities such as meals, exercise, time with friends, and the like. Once you have made your un-schedule, you may be able to see your time is often filled with more activities than you realize, for instance, that you really don‘t have five hours to spend writing on the night before your paper is due. Procrastinators‘ views of time tend to be unrealistic, and the un-schedule can help you outline a realistic plan. By planning accordingly, you will not only get a better night‘s sleep, you may also end up with a better paper.The un-schedule might also be a good way to get started on a larger project, such as a term paper or an honors paper. Youmay think that you have ―all semester‖ to get the writing done, but if you really map out how much time you have available to write on a daily and weekly basis, you will see that you need to get started sooner, rather than later. In addition, the un-schedule may reveal especially busy weeks or months, which will help you budget time for long-term projects.Perhaps most importantly, the un-schedule can help you examine how you spend your time. You may be surprised at how much time you spend watching television, and decide to make a change. It‘s especially important that you build time for fun activities into your un-schedule. Otherwise, you will procrastinate in order to steal time for relaxation.You can also use the un-schedule to record your progress towards your goal. Reward yourself for your small successes. Seeing what you‘ve achieved will help you reinfor ce (强化) the productive behavior, and you will feel more motivated in the following process.As you explore ways to conquer procrastination, don‘t expect overnight transformation. You developed the habit over a long time; you aren‘t going stop magically. But you can change the behavior, bit by bit. If you start to make an un-schedule now, you will eventually develop new habits.63. From Paragraph 2, we can know that procrastinators __________.A. usually have sleeping problemsB. tend to be unrealistic in daily lifeC. spend more time in doing exerciseD. often fail to notice untimed activities64. Which of the following statements best reflects an un-schedule?A. ―Now I have more time for fun.‖B. ―I can start my big project later.‖C. ―I‘ll treat myself to a movie for my progress.‖D. ―I‘m going to have more time to finish my paper.‖65. According to the writer, people need to make an un-schedule because of their __________.A. interests in doing things differentlyB. determination to try out new thingsC. inability to manage time properlyD. lack of concentration on a project66. The author writes the passage to __________.A.show concernsB. offer suggestionsC. express dissatisfactionD. make commentsDCCBDI wish documentaries, not movies. I read history books, not fiction. I use every free moment to accomplish one of the tasks on my never-ending checklist, and I am completely filled with thoughts of productivity. An hour sleeping is an hour wasted. And like the rest of 21st century America, I like it. But this fixation on productivity is increasingly destroying character and transforming men into robots.New York Times c olumnist David Brooks warned American University students of this cultural decline in a speech. ―We cut off all things spiritual and emotional in a competitive urge to stand out‖, he said, ―The pressure to succeed professiona lly, to acquire skills, to do the things you need to do to succeed in an information age economy really became the overwhelming (难以应付的) pressure, and it sort of eclipses the thinking about character and morality.Many students happily go to college, viewing it as a next step on their rise to professional achievement. Forcing as many success-building activities into their schedul es as they can, they enjoy keeping busy with little sleep. ―Today‘s outstanding kids are likely to spend their afternoons and weekends shuttling from one skill-improving activity to the next,‖ Brooks wrote in an article, ―We fear failure more than we desire success.‖A century ago, college was about character building. Today, our characters are in decline. We are experts on economics, material things and professional skills. We fail to discuss and understand relationships, emotions and all things spiritual. Philosophers Karl Popper divided the world into two categories: Clocks and Clouds. Clock problems are those that can be taken apart, examined and solved through deductive reasoning (演绎推理). Clouds cannot be taken apart. Cloud problems represent whole systems that need to be understood in a different way.―When we have a Cloud problem, we try to turn into a Clock problem,‖ Brooks said. And in a reason-centered culture, adding titles to one‘s resume becomes a trend. At American University, 85 percent of seniors (and 89 percent of business majors) graduate with at least one practical experience which is often helpful to a student‘s future career, but can sometimes draw f ocus away from academics.To prevent the death of man‘s character, Brooks urges rediscovering our human natures through falling in love. And by love he means love for a task, job, or another person. ―Synchronicity is key to happiness,‖ he said. Rather than crazily increasing our long lists of accomplishments, we need to lose ourselves in what we do, and success will come on its own.67. From Paragraph 1, we can learn that people __________.A. are controlled by timeB. are keen on reading booksC. are changing their charactersD. are eager to achieve more68. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word ―eclipses‖ means __________.A. deletesB. weakensC. worsensD. emphasizes69. The last paragraph mainly tells us that __________.A. love is more important than focusB. the focus on human natures countsC. more work contributes to happinessD. success comes from devotion to work.70. The purpose of this passage is to __________.A. bring awareness to character buildingB. stress the importance of productivityC. warn about the pressure to seek successD. criticize students‘ desire for achievementsDBDA第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Weighing the OptionsMaking decisions when shopping is often a to ugh cal l. Even if you‘re satisfied with the first dress you try on, would you go on looking for alternatives, comparing styles and prices, until literally dropped dead?Psychology researchers have studied how people make decisions and concluded there are two bas ic styles. ―Maximize r s‖ like to take their time and weigh a wide range of options, – sometimes every possible one –before choosing. ―Satisficers‖ would rather be fast than thorough.__________ (71) So even if they see what would seem to meet their req uirements, they can‘t make a decision until after they‘ve examined every option to make sure that they‘re making the best possible choice. Researchers followed 548 job-seeking college seniors at 11 schools from October through their graduation in June. They found that the maximizers landed better jobs. __________ (72)―The maximizers is kicking himself because he can‘t examine every option and at some point had to just pick something,‖ they say. ―Maximizers make best decisions and end up feeling bad about them. __________ (73)‖Satisficers also have high standards, but they are happier than maximizers. Maximizers tend to be more depressed and to report a lower satisfaction with life, his research found.Faced with so many choices in our lives, we need to learn how not to waste time and energy on our decision-making._________ (74) For instance, if you‘re picking a restaurant for lunch meeting, first deciding on a certain part of town or type of cuisine can narrow your options.Once you‘ve arriv ed at a decision, stick with it. __________ (75) To limit the number of options you can set a time for decision-making. Say you are buying a new bag, you could spend an amount of time studying features, price and value – but if you give yourself only five minutes to make a decision, and there are only bags you can consider, you‘ll save time. You‘ll be happier with your decision, too.A. Maximizers are people who want the best.B. First of all, decrease your range of options.C. Comparing is often a must when you make a decision.D. Just accept that no decision is ever completely perfect.E. Satisfiers make good decisions and end up feeling good.F. The other is to make decisions more accurately at the beginning.G. Their starting salaries were 20 percent higher but they felt worse about their jobs.AGEBD第四部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节（15分）你的英国朋友Tom 将来你家共度除夕，你打算当天下午去地铁站接他。
