Passagel 2016 北京卷A
Dear Alfred ,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150 at 17, I ' m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD（Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder 注意力缺陷多动障碍）.Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five releva nt pre-college courses.
While I was explori ng my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wan ted to go to college after
high school, but couldn ' t . So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered
the on li ne computer courses of your trai ning cen ter.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advaneed Mathematics. Currently, I ' m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has give n me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public ,
I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job —Data Analyst —this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful professi on, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better tha n, my competitors.
Thank you. You ' ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I ' m doing some thing, not because some one told me I was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you ' re saving my life.
Yours, Tan is
A. explain why she was in terested in the computer
B. share the ideas she had for her professi on C .show how grateful she was to the cen ter D. describe the courses she had take n so far
Passage 2 2016 浙江卷 C
A scie ntist work ing at her lab bench and a six-old baby play ing with his food might seem to have little in com mon. After all, the scie ntist is en gaged in serious research to un cover the very n ature of the physical world, and the baby is, well
, just play in g,right?
Perhaps, but
some developmental psychologists have argued that this “play ” is more like a scientific
in vestigati on tha n one might think.
Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls
in the ground — and, in the process, it belongs out important evidenee
about how physical objects in teract ; bowls of rice do not flood in mid-sit, but require support to rema in stable. It is
likely that babies are n ot born k
nowing the basic fact of the uni verse;
nor are they ever clearly taught it. In stead, babies may form an un dersta nding of object support
through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects in teract.
Though their ran ges
and tools differ, the baby ' s in vestigati on and the scie ntist
' s
experime nt appear to share the same aim (to lear n about the n atural world), overall approach (gatheri ng direct evide nee from the world), and logic (are my observati ons what I expected?).
Somepsychologists suggest that young children
learn about more than just the physical world
in this way — that they in vestigate huma n psychology and the rules of Ian guage using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experime nts, evide nee gatheri ng,
and fin ally
overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires
from what he or she has, for example, unlike the child , Mommyictually doesn ' t like Dove chocolate.
Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation
throws on how children
learn ,but it also offers an inspiring
look at scienee and scientists.
Why do young children
and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that scie nee as an effort
— the desire
to explore, explain, and understand our world — is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cog nitive systems that make young childre n feel
good about figuri ng someth ing out may have bee n
adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, ” It is not that children are little
scie ntists but tha
t scie ntists are big childre n.
”
50. Accord ing to some developme ntal psychologists, _____ . A . a baby ' s play is nothing more than a game. B. scientific research into babies; games is possible
56. Why didn ' t Tanis go to college after high school? A. She had lear ned eno ugh about computer scie nee C. She preferred tak ing on li ne courses
57. As for the worki ng en viro nment, Tanis prefers ____ A .work ing by herself C. competi ng aga inst others
58. Ta nis wrote this letter in order to . B. She had more difficulty
keeping focused
D. She was too slow to lear n
B. deal ing with the public
D. stayi ng with ADHD stude nts
C. the nature of babies ' play has been thoroughly inves tigated
D. a baby ' s play is somehow similar to a scientist ' s experiment
51. We lear n from Paragraph 2 that _____ .
A. scientists and babies seem to observe the world differently
B. scie ntists and babies often in teract with each other
C. babies are born with the kno wledge of object support
D. babies seem to collect evide nee just as scie ntists do
52. Childre n may lear n the rules of Ian guage by _____ .
A. explori ng the physical world
B. in vestigati ng huma n psychology
C. repeat ing their own experime nts
D. observi ng their pare nts ' behaviors

A. The world may be more clearly explained through children ' s play.
B. Studying babies ' play may lead to a better understanding of scienee.
C. Childre n may have greater ability to figure out things tha n scie ntists.
D. One' s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.
54. What is the author ' s tone when he discusses the connection between scientists ' research
and babies ' pla y?

■ Test训练 A
From the very begi nning of school we make books and readi ng a con sta nt source of possible failure and public humiliati on. When childre n are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they "know" all the words they are reading. This means that whe n they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right i n front of every one. After havi ng taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read ofte ner and more adve nturously.
One day soon after school had started, I said to them, "Now rm going to say something about readi ng that you have probably n ever heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questio ns to find out whether you un dersta nd the books or no t. If you un dersta nd eno ugh of a book to enjoy it and want to go on readi ng it, that's eno ugh for me. Also I ' m not going to ask
you what words mean."
The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come
to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, "Mr Holt, do you really mean that?" I said just as seriously, "I mean every word of it."
During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a glimpse of the illustrati ons I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, "It can't be," and went to take a closer look. Sure eno ugh, she was read ing Moby Dick , in editi on with woodcuts. I said, "Don't you find parts of it rather heavy goin g?" She an swered, "Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part."
This is exactly what readi ng should be and in school so seldom is, an excit in g, joyous adve nture. Find somethi ng, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to someth ing else. How differe nt is our mean-spirited, picky in siste nee that every child get every last little scrap of "un dersta ndin g" that can be dug out of a book.
41. Accord ing to the passage, childre n's fear and dislike of books may result from ____ .
A. readi ng little and thinking little
B. read ing ofte n and adve nturously
C. being made to read too much
D. being made to read aloud before others
42. The teacher told his stude nts to read ____ .
A. for enjoyme nt
B. for kno wledge
C. for a larger vocabulary
D. for higher scores in exams
43. Upon heari ng the teacher's talk, the childre n probably felt that ___ .
A. it soun ded stupid
B. it was not surpris ing at all
C. it sounded too goodto be true
D. it was no different from other teachers' talk
44. Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?
A. She skipped over those easy parts while readi ng.
B. She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.
C. She lear ned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.
D. She turned out to be a top stude nt after coming to this school.
45. From the teacher's , point of view, ________ .
A. childre n cannot tell good parts from bad parts while read ing
B. children should be left to decide what to read and how to read
C. readi ng is n ever a pleasa nt and in spiri ng experie nee in school
D. reading involves understanding every little piece of information
B
Graphs can be a very useful tool for conveying information, especially numbers, percentages, and other data. A graph gives the reader a picture to interpret. That can be a lot more efficient than pages and pages expla ining the data.
Graphs can seem frighte ning, but readi ng a graph is a lot like read ing a story. The graph
has a title, a main idea, and supporting details. You can use your active reading skills to analyze
and un dersta nd graphs just like any other text.
Most graphs have a few basic parts: a captio n or in troducti on paragraph, a title, a lege nd
or key, and labeled axes. An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to
interpret the data. Captions will usually tell you where the data from(for example, a scientific study of 400 African elephants from 1980 to 2005). Captions usually summarize the author ' s main point as well. The title is very important. It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of in formati on is being show n. A lege nd, also called a key, is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph. Many graphs, in cludi ng bar graphs and line graphs, have two axes that form a corner. Usually these axes are the left side and the will always have a label tells you what each axis measures. Bar Graphs
A bar graph has two axes and uses bars to
show
amoun ts. In Graph 1, we see that the x-axis shows grades
stude nts earn ed, and the y-axis shows how many
bottom of the graph
students earned each grade. You can see that 6 students
earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the vertical measureme nt. There is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like Graph 1. Student Performance on Social Studies Quiz
.Each axis

.ULLU0L JT FUH.1LBLLL 二寸I. ULUF
this (See Graph 1). Line Graphs
A line graph looks similar to a bar graph, but in stead of bars, it plots points and conn ects them with a lin e. It has the same parts as a bar graph---two labeled axes---a nd can be read the same way. To read a line graph, it ' s important to focus on the points of in tersect ion rather tha n the line segme nts betwee n the poin ts. This type of graph is most com monly used to show how someth ing changes over time. Here is a graph that charts how far a bird flies during the first five days of its
spring migration (See Graph 2).
The un it of measureme nt for the x-axis is days. The un it of measureme nt for the y-axis is kilometers. Thus we can see that, on the first day, the pipit flew 20 kilometers.
The line segment
goes up between Day 1 and Day 2, which means that the bird flew farther on Day 2. If the line
segme nt an gled dow n, as betwee n Day 4 and Day 5, it would mean that the bird flew fewer kilometers than the day before. This line graph is a quick, visual way to tell the reader about the bird ' s migration. Pie Graphs
A typical pie graph looks like a circular pie. The circle divided into secti ons, and each sect ion represe nts a fraction the data. The graph is com monly used to show perce ntages; the whole pie represe nts 100 perce nt, so each piece is a fracti on the whole.
A pie graph might in clude a lege nd, or it might use icons or labels withi n each slice. This pie graph shows one month ' s e xpenses(See Graph 3).
