As a public school superintendent (督导), I believe the best way to prepare students for colleges and careers is to focus on everyone else in a community, should play a role as a “cognitive coach” to students, helping develop good thinkers among your youth.
The best way for you to become 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 position 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 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 student’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.
29. According to the 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. 30. 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. How do you like this basketball team? D. Where are you going this weekend? 31. 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 topics 32. 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.
D
A name is supposed to last a lifetime, so picking a name for your baby doesn’t seem like something you would want to base on current trends. The general trend in baby naming these days is all about originality. Classic, traditional names like the ones given to the characters of most Hollywood movies over the past 30 years are on their way out. Instead of common and familiar names, new parents want unique and even strange ones.
This can mean reaching a bit further into the past for names that were typical a few generations or more ago but are uncommon now. Old-fashioned names have a strangeness that many new parents judge to be cool. Need another option for your special little boy or girl? Try a foreign name because a name from another language is sure to draw attention and might give your child an attractive image within your own culture. After all, if you look beyond your own language, there are an incredible number of charming names to choose from. Another option is to use a last name as a first name. Parents who want to honor someone important or someone famous like a politician, artist, or writer might tend to give the famous surname to their child as a first name. Hence parents that like music or sports have been choosing names like Jackson or Jordan to honor their favorite people. Celebrities(名人)have always liked to stand out from the crowd, and they are making sure their children do as well, with names like Moon Unit, Apple, and Jermajesty. Just remember, a baby’s name is theirs for life, so choose wisely and avoid picking a name that will likely result in endless jokes and nicknames for the first 20 years of his or her life. 33. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. The popularity of original baby names. B. Current events influencing naming babies.
C. Hollywood celebrities prefer classic names. D. Picking out names for children isn’t so important. 34. What does the expression “on their way out” mean?
A. Losing popularity. B. Drawing attention. C. Causing dissatisfaction. D. Gaining force.
35. In regard to baby naming, what does the author think is a good idea? A. Naming from only the parents’ mother tongue. B. Naming children after someone important.
C. Using names of foreign streets, cities or countries. D. Using strange name making children instantly popular. 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There are three things that will get you ahead in life: good looks, smarts, and being considered as being smart. 36 And unluckily most of us are not good-looking. Let’s explore some different ways to become smarter.
37 College doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be smarter, just educated. It means you’ll be exposed to many different ideas and hopefully you’ll learn how to think. Being able to think outside the box and for yourself are features smart people possess.
Read books and educational magazines. 38 Educational magazines are a wealth of knowledge you can share with others, thus making you sound very smart. If you do watch television, try watching something where you can learn.
Expand your vocabulary. Try to learn one new word a week. It doesn’t seem like much, but adding 52 new words to your vocabulary will really make you appear much smarter. Subscribing(订阅)to vocabulary. com is a good start. 39 This way you’re actually getting 365 words a year, but that is usually more than most people can absorb.
Don’t repeat everything people tell you until you know that it’s true. _40__ They hear a strange claim and they repeat it to the nearest ear. You can do much harm
