10、ay camps and lifeguard stands.But the summer vacation hasnt always been a birthright of US schoolchildren.Before the Civil War,schools operated on one of two calendars(日历),neither of which included a summer vacation.Rural(农村的) schooling was divided into summer and winter terms,leaving kids free to h
11、elp with the farm work in the spring planting and fall harvest seasons.Urban students,meanwhile,regularly had as many as 48 weeks of study a year,with one break per quarter.In the 1840s,however,educational reformers like Horace Mann moved to combine the two calendars out of concern that rural school
12、ing was not enough and that overusing of young minds could lead to nervous disorders.Summer appeared as the obvious time for a break:it offered a rest for teachers,fit in the farming calendar and reduced doctors concern that packing students into hot classrooms would promote the spread of disease.Bu
13、t peoples opinion about the modern US school year,which averages 180 days,is still divided.Some experts say its pleasant but lazy summer break,which took hold in the early 20th century,is one of the reasons maths skills and graduation rates of US high school students ranked well below average in two

18、il the subjects that children should study and the levels of achievement they should reach by the ages of 7,11,14,and 16,when they are tested.The National Curriculum does not apply to Scotland,where each school decides what subjects it will teach.ExaminationsAt 16,students in England and Wales take
19、GCSE examinations.These examinations are taken by students of all levels of ability in any of a range of subjects,and may involve a final examination,an assessment of work done during the two-year course,or both of these things.At 18 some students take A-level examinations,usually in no more than th
20、ree subjects.It is necessary to have A levels in order to go to university.In Scotland students take the SCE examinations.A year later,they can take examinations called Highers,after which they can either go straight to a university or spend a further year at school and take the Certificate of Sixth
21、 Year Studies.In Scotland the university system is different from that in England and Wales.Courses usually last four years rather than three,and students study a large number of subjects as part of their degree.24.According to the passage,children have to go to school between the ages of in both Br

26、students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation,as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.“This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas
27、,” says Wang Lan,a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC),a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.However,in the past few years,many of Wangs student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the
28、language requirements,visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough.The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia,Wang says.A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li,in Beijing,who is planning to do her postgraduate studies in Austra
29、lia,learned about the policy change several weeks ago.“According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa,my family was required to put down 550,000 yuan.Now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan.This is a relief for my parents,” Li says.She also says that the two-to-four-year working

36、y schools specialise in different areas of study.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology,for example,is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study.However,if you want to study oceanography (海洋学),your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that
37、 is on a coastline or near the ocean.Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country.So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.California is a nice state.Northern California specifically has very good weather.Los Angeles in Southern Cali
38、fornia is another story though.Life in Los Angeles is fast,full of excitement and sometimes dangerous.As for me,I enjoyed the time I spent in Massachusetts,Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture.The weather is not as perfect as California,but it is still quite nice.
39、My favourite area of America is the Midwest.Middle America,I think,is home to the true American sense of values.In addition,there are many good universities there.Also,you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states.You like sunshine and hate snow?Then you probab
40、ly wont like the Midwest or even the Northeast.Open space,nature and peace and quiet?Then you probably should stay away from Americas large cities.Are you interested in government?Then Washington,D.C.is the only place for you.Whatever you decide,put some thought into it.The place you live could be t

45、a big part of how you look and act.36Your environment isnt just the air you breathe and the food you eat,though.Cultural differences can make it difficult to adapt to the new surroundings.Culture is made up of the common things that members of a community learn from family,friends,media,literature,a
46、nd even strangers.37 Often,you dont even know you are learning these things because they become second nature to you.For instance,the way you shake hands with someone when you are meeting them,when you eat your meals each day or the kind of things you find funny.When you go to a new place,such as a
47、new country or even a new city,you often enter a culture that is different from the one you left.38 Other times,they can be very different,and even contradictory.What might be perfectly normal in one culturefor instance,spending hours eating a meal with your familymight be unusual in a culture that
48、values a more fast-paced lifestyle.39 You may encounter unfamiliar clothes,weather,and food as well as different people,schools,and values.You may find yourself struggling to do things in your new surroundings that were easy back home.40 Those feelings are part of getting used to a new culture.A.A b

82、est boxes for them in their gardens.One of our favourite things is feeding the birds so that the production of wild bird food is now a huge industry in our country.New research shows this enthusiasm has had a great effect on our countrys bird population.A study in the 1970s showed that only one or t
83、wo types of birds were fed.Now,however,over 30 types are taking advantage of the free food.Numbers of wild birds have greatly increased,which has to be good news.However,caution is needed.Some worry that wild birds may grow to depend on human help and may not be able to look after themselves.15 CCAA
84、B610 CBCAA1115 BACAB1620 BCBAC21.D根据第一段中的“Rural schooling was divided into summer and winter terms,leaving kids free to help with the farm work in the spring planting and fall harvest seasons.”可知,在内战前,农村的学校分为夏季和冬季两个学期,这样可以让孩子们在春天播种和秋季收获时给大人帮忙。22.A从文章第二段中可以看出,教育改革家出于对农村教育不足以及青少年过度使用大脑会导致神经紊乱等问题的考虑,认为
85、夏天应该是休息的时刻。由此可以推知,当时的教育改革家提出了暑假这一设想。23.B根据最后一段可知,一些专家认为,美国高中生的数学技能和毕业率远低于2007年发布的两份国际教育报告中的平均水平的原因是美国轻松慵懒的暑假。由该语境可知,人们认为美国现代的学年制降低了教学质量。24.B根据第一段中的“between the ages of 5 and 16.from the age of 6 to the ages between 14 and 16,depending on the state they live in”取交集可知选B项。25.A根据第二段中的“In England and Wal
86、es the subjects taught in schools are laid down by the National Curriculum”可知选A项。26.A根据Examinations部分的内容可知,GCSE与英格兰和威尔士的学生相关,苏格兰的学生不参加这个考试,所以选A项。27.C根据第三段中的“It is necessary to have A levels in order to go to university.”可知选C项。28.C通读全文可知,澳大利亚简化了留学申请程序,降低了保证金和语言要求。故选C项。29.C根据第三段中的“Language requirement
87、s for overseas students have also been eased.”可知C项是错误的。30.D根据第六段中的“The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia,Wang says.”结合常识可知,宽松的政策会鼓励更多的学生去澳大利亚留学。31.A根据倒数第二段中的“I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness
88、when I return to China”可知选A项。32.D通读本段尤其是“Also,the best places to live are not always home to the best schools.”可知,宜居的地方未必有好学校。故选D项。33.C通过本段的第二、三句可知,加利福尼亚州南部和北部的天气状况不一样。故选C项。34.B根据第三段中的“Middle America,I think,is home to the true American sense of values.”可知,Middle America最能体现美国的特点。35.B根据最后一段中的“Are yo
