  Section Ⅱ Reading Comprehension

  Part A:

  Directions:

  Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET I. (40 points)

  Text 1

  It is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to justify his efforts to give his students a better future.

  Mr. Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not something of books and tests and mechanical memorization, but practical. When did it become accepted wisdom that students should be able to name the 13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike chain?

  As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a graffitied desk stuck with generations of discarded chewing gum. They can also learn geometry by assembling a bicycle.

  But he’s also found a kind of insidious prejudice. Working with your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. Schools in the family of vocational education “have that stereotype..that it’s for kids who can’t make it academically,” he says.

  On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America’s evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that it once was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely evaporated. More education is the new principle. We want more for our kids, and rightfully so.

  But the headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all -and the subtle devaluing of anything less-misses an important point: That’s not the only thing the American economy needs. Yes, a bachelor’s degree opens more doors. But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained.

  In other words, at a time when the working class has turned the country on its political head, frustrated that the opportunity that once defined America is vanishing, one obvious solution is staring us in the face. There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most aren’t equipped to do them. Koziatek’s Manchester School of Technology High School is trying to fill that gap.

  Koziatek’s school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size-fits-all, it risks overlooking a nation’s diversity of gifts.

  21. A broken bike chain is mentioned to show students’ lack of______.

  A. mechanical memorization

  B. academic training

  C. practical ability

  D. pioneering spirit

  22. There exists the prejudice that vocational education is for kids who______.

  A. are financially disadvantaged

  B. are not academically successful

  C. have a stereotyped mind

  D. have no career motivation

  23. We can infer from Paragraph 5 that high school graduates______.

  A. are entitled to more educational privileges

  B. are reluctant to work in manufacturing

  C. used to have more job opportunities

  D. used to have big financial concerns

  24. The headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all_____.

  A. helps create a lot of middle-skill jobs

  B. may narrow the gap in working-class jobs

  C. is expected to yield a better-trained workforce

  D. indicates the overvaluing of higher education

  25. The author’s attitude toward Koziatek’s school can be described as_____.

  A. supportive

  B. disappointed

  C. tolerant

  D. cautious

  答案及解析:

  21. 选C. practical ability

  答案在第二段第二句,学校教授的不是书本和死记硬背的内容,而是practical,实际的。因此选C

  22. 选B. are not academically successful

  答案在第四段第二句话和第三句话,a mark of inferiority,自卑的标志和kids who can’t make it academically, 那些在学术上失败的孩子。

  23. 选C. used to have more job opportunities

  答案在第五段第三句话,“美国经济过去提供的工作安全感现在消失了。”

  24. 选D. indicates the overvaluing of higher education

  第六段第一句话,“…没有抓住重点:这并不仅仅是美国经济唯一需要的东西。”

  25. 选A. supportive

  从文章第二段开头一句,“…是先锋人物”,为称赞句。
