23、e plans for a shorter summer holiday 【要點綜述】本文是一篇說明文。介紹了英國諾丁漢城市委員會把學生假期縮短至4.5周的計劃。 71. D 推理判斷題。從文章倒數(shù)第二段“Nottingham City Council is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down to four and a half weeks”和最后一段“We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff”可知答案。 72. B 代詞指代題。根據(jù)第二段

24、,度假是昂貴的,并且對于那些低工資和靠救濟為生的人,度假是不可能的。 73. B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第一句可知答案。 74. C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句話“The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment.”可知如果假期縮短,學生就可以更多地享受學校提供的照顧和鼓舞人心的學習環(huán)境。 75.

25、cknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff”可推知一些學校員工會反對這個計劃。 76. Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the c

26、ountry. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, “In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence”. Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manag

27、e conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit? First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a r

28、elatively minor insult(侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the confl

29、ict. Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution(解決):stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusations only add fuel to th

30、e emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control. After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy(策略) for conflict resolution: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other

31、. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles. Finally, students need to consider what they are bearing. This

32、 doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try n

33、ew things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these:How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution. There wi

34、ll always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teach

35、ers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in

40、te teaching conflict management in schools D. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violence 【要點綜述】作者在文章中主要探討了如何讓學生正確、冷靜處理校園沖突,從而減少校園暴力以及介紹了學生學會解決沖突的益處,最后呼吁全國的各個學校教授學生解決沖突的技能。 50. D 主旨大意題。從文章第一段…is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence…,以及下文提到的

41、First of all…;Once students…;After both sides have calmed down…;Finally, students…等知,該文主要介紹了如何幫助學生正確處理校園沖突的方法,所以選D項。 51.
