【題目】What a journey!

There's one journey I'll never forget. It was about six years ago. I was going to Hong Kong, from London. The flight was early in the morning, so I stayed in a hotel near the airport the night before. I was in a holiday mood that night, so I went to the hotel bar and ordered a drink to celebrate. And I got talking to some other people. We had a great time. When I left the bar, it was about three in the morning. The flight was at six o'clock, so it wasn't really worth going to sleep. I watched TV for a bit but I fell asleep. When I woke up it was after five o’clock. So I panicked, grabbed my bags and rushed outside, looking for a taxi. Of course - no taxis anywhere. Luckily, after a few minutes running up and down the street, an airport bus came along, so I got on that. When I got there it was actually nearly six, so I thought the gate must be closed. I'd missed my plane. The whole terminal(航站樓)was empty except for a huge crowd of people at one end and luckily, that was the queue for my flight. It was delayed! Yeah. I was real pleased. But the delay went from one hour, to four hours to finally nine hours! Nine hours waiting in the airport. I slept on some chairs most of the time. Finally, at around three o' clock, the plane took off. But the worst part came! After a few hours there was a huge storm and the plane started bouncing all over the place - I remember feeling it was like being in a washing machine. People were screaming babies crying and food flying everywhere. I was really scared. And then! The worst thing of all - the oxygen masks dropped down. Suddenly we all were staring at these yellow oxygen masks and the feeling of fear - I just can't describe it. I put my mask on and just sat there in absolute terror, with the plane bouncing all over the place and lightning outside the windows Anyway the plane didn't crash, thank God, and we got to Hong Kong in the end, but what a journey! I'll never forget it.

【題目】Are “Basics”Enough for Students?

An American education expert says many schools are spending too much time teaching the ―basics‖ reading, math and writing. That might be different from what educators have been saying in America. But U.S. Education Secretary John King says children really need a well-rounded(全面的)education that includes music and the arts.

King spoke about his own education when explaining why schools need to teach more than math, reading and writing. His parents died when he was young. He said things in his house were frightening. It was his teacher in Grades Four, Five and Six Mr. Osterweil who helped him escape from his difficult life at home. Each day in Mr. Osterweil’s class, students would read a newspaper. The teacher took him and his classmates to the theater, the zoos and famous museums.

“Those were powerful, life-changing experiences,‖ King says. After he graduated from Harvard University, he took charge of New York State public schools from 2011-2015. ―I’m alive today, I’m doing the work that I do today because I had Mr. Osterweil during that period of my life,‖ King says. ―Students need to connect their studies to things that matter to them, such as music, if they want to become a thinker.‖

A 2013 report by UNESCO(聯(lián)合國教科文組織), says world needs people to be able to solve new and unusual problems now. It says arts can help students find those answers. In the report, UNESCO says teaching the arts in China, South Korea and Japan is different from that in many western countries. ―The educators in those three countries pay more attention on joyful experiences and children’s interests,‖ the report says. ―In the West, educators are more likely to connect the arts to reading, writing and math.”

Comparing countries is hard because they have different ways to define success. For example some people may think getting high marks in exams is success, while others may hold different views. A 2014 survey by the Program for International Student Assessment tried to compare how well countries teach children how to solve problems. It found Singapore, South Korea, Japan, and China with the highest scores. Singapore was the top one with a score of 562 out of 1,000. The average(平均的) score was 500. The United States had a score of 508, one point behind Germany.

So it may be worth rethinking what we should focus on in our class. The ―basics‖ is not the only part of education.

【1】 We can learn from the passage that __________.

A. King’s family life was warm and happy

B. King’s teacher focused on ―basics‖ more

C. educators in the West teach music for joy

D. arts can help students solvenew problems

【2】 The word “define” in Paragraph 6 probably means―_________”

A. get the pleasure of B. make full use of

C. give the meaning of D. take the place of

【3】 The writer probably agrees that______.

A. students need more than “basics”to learn

B. getting high marks in exams is success

C.education depends a lot on the hobbies

D. we need more time to learn “basics”
