Question

【題目】

Chinese students are thought to be hard workers who put great effort into their studies. How well do they perform on tests on a world level? The 2018 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA國(guó)際學(xué)生能力評(píng)估項(xiàng)目) found that 15-year-olds in Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang ranked(排列) No 1 in reading, science and math. They got the highest rating(等級(jí)) — Level 4.

The PISA is carried out every three years by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). This year, it tested around 600,000 students in 79 countries and regions.

Students from Singapore came in second place in reading. Students from Macao ranked third in all three categories (類別). Students from the United States ranked Level 3 for reading and science and Level 2 for math.

Chinese mainland students first took part in the PISA in 2009, when students from Shanghai ranked on top. The city's students got the top spot again in 2012.

The PISA rankings have raised global(全球的) interest in Chinese teaching methods. The UK ranked 26th in math in the 2012 PISA. Teachers there are starting to use Chinese math-teaching methods. Around 5,000 of Britain's 16,000 primary schools have used the Shanghai math-teaching method, China Daily reported.

Britain translated math textbooks from Chinese schools and published them in 2017. Every year since 2014, groups of British and Chinese teachers have visited each other's schools to share teaching tips and discuss methods.

The new teaching methods have allowed younger students to learn basic knowledge in a more solid (堅(jiān)實(shí)的) way that makes sure they understand more complex content (復(fù)雜的內(nèi)容) when they are older, noted Carol Knights from Britain's National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Math.

Both China and the UK have benefited (獲益) from each other. “We've benefited from working with Chinese partners due to(歸咎于) the very high quality of lesson planning and teaching for memorization in China. Our Chinese partners have benefited from our methods of the development of character, focus on innovation (創(chuàng)新) and application (應(yīng)用) of knowledge," Philip Avery, from the Bohunt Education Trust, said to China Daily.

【解析】

本文主要介紹了在2018年的PISA國(guó)際學(xué)生評(píng)估項(xiàng)目中發(fā)現(xiàn)，來自北京、上海、江蘇和浙江的15歲的學(xué)生，在閱讀、科學(xué)和數(shù)學(xué)方面排名第一，取得了很好的成績(jī)。其他國(guó)家也對(duì)中國(guó)的數(shù)學(xué)教學(xué)方法更加注意，英國(guó)翻譯并出版了中國(guó)學(xué)校的數(shù)學(xué)教材，中英兩國(guó)的教師團(tuán)隊(duì)每年都會(huì)訪問彼此的學(xué)校，分享教學(xué)技巧，討論教學(xué)方法。通過這種方式，雙方都收獲了很多。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“The 2018 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA國(guó)際學(xué)生能力評(píng)估項(xiàng)目) found that 15-year-olds in Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang ranked(排列) No 1 in reading, science and math.”在2018年的PISA國(guó)際學(xué)生評(píng)估項(xiàng)目中發(fā)現(xiàn)，來自北京、上海、江蘇和浙江的15歲的學(xué)生，在閱讀、科學(xué)和數(shù)學(xué)方面排名第一�？芍獊碜源箨懙膶W(xué)生在2018年的PISA國(guó)際學(xué)生能力評(píng)估項(xiàng)目中表現(xiàn)很好。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“The PISA is carried out every three years by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). This year, it tested around 600,000 students in 79 countries and regions.” PISA由經(jīng)濟(jì)合作與發(fā)展組織(OECD)每三年舉辦一次。今年，它對(duì)79個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)的約60萬名學(xué)生進(jìn)行了測(cè)試。It tests students from different places. 它測(cè)試來自不同地方的學(xué)生。A項(xiàng)符合句意。It is carried out every year.它每年都會(huì)舉行。根據(jù)句意可知，PISA每三年舉辦一次，故B項(xiàng)不符合題意。It is held by the United Nations.它由聯(lián)合國(guó)組織。根據(jù)句意可知，它由OECD組織，故C項(xiàng)不符合題意；Its tests cover students in all countries.它的檢測(cè)覆蓋所有的國(guó)家。根據(jù)句意可知，它測(cè)試79個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)，故D項(xiàng)不符合題意。故選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Students from Singapore came in second place in reading. Students from Macao ranked third in all three categories (類別). Students from the United States ranked Level 3 for reading and science and Level 2 for math.”來自新加坡的學(xué)生在閱讀方面排名第二。來自澳門的學(xué)生在所有三個(gè)類別排名第三。來自美國(guó)的學(xué)生在閱讀和科學(xué)方面排名第三，在數(shù)學(xué)方面排名第二。Students from Macao ranked second in reading.澳門學(xué)生的閱讀排名第二。 Students from the US are better at math than reading.美國(guó)學(xué)生的數(shù)學(xué)比閱讀好。15-year-old students from Beijing ranked highest in reading.來自北京的15歲學(xué)生在閱讀方面排名最高。Students from Shanghai were the best math learners in 2018. 2018年，上海學(xué)生是數(shù)學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)最好的學(xué)生。故B項(xiàng)符合題意。故選B。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Britain translated math textbooks from Chinese schools and published them in 2017. Every year since 2014, groups of British and Chinese teachers have visited each other's schools to share teaching tips and discuss methods.”英國(guó)翻譯了中國(guó)學(xué)校的數(shù)學(xué)教材，并于2017年出版。自2014年以來，中英兩國(guó)的教師團(tuán)隊(duì)每年都會(huì)訪問彼此的學(xué)校，分享教學(xué)技巧，討論教學(xué)方法。推測(cè)可知英國(guó)將中國(guó)學(xué)校的數(shù)學(xué)課本翻譯成英文版是因?yàn)橄胍獙W(xué)習(xí)中國(guó)學(xué)校如何教數(shù)學(xué)。故選A。

【5】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“The new teaching methods have allowed younger students to learn basic knowledge in a more solid (堅(jiān)實(shí)的) way that makes sure they understand more complex content (復(fù)雜的內(nèi)容) when they are older, noted Carol Knights from Britain's National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Math.”這種新教學(xué)方法讓小一些的學(xué)生用一種更踏實(shí)的方法學(xué)習(xí)基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)，確保他們?cè)陂L(zhǎng)大后能夠理解更復(fù)雜的內(nèi)容，這些被來自英國(guó)國(guó)家數(shù)學(xué)教學(xué)卓越中心卡羅騎士注意到�！笨梢酝茢嘈碌慕虒W(xué)方法可以幫助學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)，所以更多的學(xué)生會(huì)關(guān)注教學(xué)方法。故選A。
