China has so many more conv

27、n was born in 1903 in the southern city of Danville, Kentucky. His mother was his first music teacher. As a young man, he continued his music study in Indianapolis, Indiana.In 1930, he completed musical education at Columbia University in New York City. Then he moved to Washington. For fifteen years

28、, he taught music at Howard University in Washington. At that time, not many black musicians were known for writing or performing classical music. Teaching at Howard gave Duncan the chance to share his knowledge of classical European music with a mainly black student population. He taught special wa

29、ys to present the music. These special ways became known as the Duncan Technique.Besides teaching, Duncan sang in several operas with performers who were all black. But it seemed that he always would be known mainly as a concert artist. However, his life took a different turn in the middle of 1930s.

30、 At that time, the famous American music writer George Gershwin was looking for someone to play a leading part in his new work Porgy and Bess. A music critic (評(píng)論家) of The New York Times newspaper suggested Todd Duncan. Duncan had almost decided not to try for the part as he knew it would not be easy

31、 to get it. But he changed his mind. He sang a piece from an Italian opera to Gershwin. He had sung only for a few minutes when Gershwin offered him the part. He became famous because of the part in Porgy and Bess.Todd Duncan gained fame as an opera singer and concert artist. But his greatest love i

Numerous researchers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school, and that positive attitudes promote learning. It is no coincidenc

36、e that girls are more passive in the classroom discussion and score lower than boys on SATs.We found that at all grade levels in all communities and in all subject areas boys controlled classroom communication. They participated in more interactions than girls did, and their participation became gre

37、ater as the year went on.Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention. That

38、teachers talk more to male students is simply because boys are more aggressive in grabbing their attention by calling out answers to the teachers questions first. While girls sit patiently with their hands raised or keep silent. Psychologist Lisa Serbin and K.Daniel OLeary, then at the state univers

39、ity of New York at stony brook studied classroom interaction at preschool level and found that teachers gave boys more attention, praised them more often and were at least twice as likely to have extended conversations with them.Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is

40、to do it yourself. It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers. Teachers behave differently depending on whether boys or girls are active to provide answers during discussions. During classroom discussion, teachers in our study react

41、ed to boys answers with powerful, precise and effective responses, while they often gave girls mild and unclear reactions because of their silence. Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academical

42、ly. And they are more likely to be boys.This kind of communication game is played at work, as well as at school. As reported in numerous studies, it goes like this.Men speak more often and frequently interrupt women. Listeners recall more from male speakers than from female speakers, even when both

43、use a similar speaking style and cover the same content.Women participate less actively in conversation. They do more smiling and gazing, and they are more often the passive by standers in professional and social conversations among peers.Women often their own statements into unsure comments. This i

44、s accomplished by using qualifiers and by adding tag question. These uncertain patterns weaken impact and signal a lack of power and influence.Only when girls are active and treated equally in the classroom will they be more likely to achieve equality in the workplace.1、What does the authors mean wh

45、en they say“Education is not a bystanders sport.”?ABoth boys and girls should do more sports.BThe girl students should be the audience to watch the boy students discussions.CThe boy students should not be too active in the classroom discussions.DBoth boy and girl students should take an active part

46、in the classroom discussions.2、Which of the following is Not true?AGirls scores are lower than boys on SATs.BGirls control classroom discussion in reading while boys in maths.CBoys control classroom discussion in both reading and maths.DBoys are more confident in calling out answers to catching the

47、teachers attention.3、The factors that contribute to the students effective learning are the following except_AThe students can take an active part in the classroom discussion.BThe students do it themselves.CTeachers can give students specific and direct feedback the quality of their work and answers

48、.DStudents transform their own statements into uncertain comments.25（10分） The secret to living longer could be as simple as picking up your walking pace, according to a new study. Researchers from the University of Sydney found that walking at a brisk(快的) or fast pace was associated with a risk redu

49、ction of 24 percent for any cause of death.This effect was even more obvious in older age group, with fast walkers over the age of 60 reducing their risk of death by a surprising 53 percent. Professor Emmanuel Stamatakis, who led the study, explained, “A fast pace is generally five to six kilometers

50、 per hour, but it really depends on a walkers fitness levels; an alternatives indicator is to walk at a pace that makes you slightly out of breath or sweaty.”In the study, the researchers looked at the results of 11 surveys from 134 to 2008, in which participants recorded their walking pace, as well

51、 as age, sex and BMI. The analysis showed that walking at an average pace was associated with a 20 percent risk reduction for all-cause mortality(死亡率) compared with walking at a slow pace, while walking at a brisk or fast pace was associated with a risk reduction of 24 percent.The researchers hope t

52、he findings will encourage the development of public health message about the benefits of walking pace. Professor Stamatakis added, “These analyses suggest that increasing walking pace may be a straightforward way for people to improve heart health and risk for premature mortality- providing a simpl

53、e message for public health campaigns to promote.“Especially in situations when walking more isnt possible due to time pressures or a less walking-friendly environment, walking faster may be a good option to get the heart rate up- one that most people can easily add to their lives.”1、Who benefit mos

54、t from walking fast?ACancer sufferers.BThe elderly.CThose who have heart problems.DThose who have high BMI.2、What decides how fast a person can walk according to Professor Stamatakis?AHis/Her fitness levels.BHis/Her ages.CHis/Her will.DHis/Her BMI.3、Why can walking fast reduce death rate?AMost peopl

55、e like doing it.BIt benefits the heart.CIt reduces cancer mortality.DMost people can do it easily.4、What is the main idea of the text?AWalking is easy exercise for people to do.BWalking has received little attention until now.CMore and more people are walking fast for health.DA fast walking pace can

56、 benefit peoples health.第三部分 語(yǔ)言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)26（30分）完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。Several years ago, while attending a communication course, I experienced a most unusual process.
