21、Isaac Newton on a skateboard?

Does maths explain everything?

It’s long time since most of us were at school, sitting in maths class and thinking: “When am I ever going to need this?”   As adults we know that the answer is “all the time” --maths is everywhere, and not just in the places you’d expect. The challenge is to help children realize its relevance to their everyday life.

AQUlLA’s Real World Maths Issue:

They may not know it, but even skateboarders and dancers are using maths all the time --- and your   local skate park is actually a great place to put mathematical theory (think calculus) into action! In this issue, children can read about Sir Christopher Wren’s plans for re-building London; try AQUILA’s topologist game; investigate snowflakes-nature’s little mathematical masterpieces, and learn about artist L.S Lowry’s ideas on perspective. Plus: find out some really bad maths that ended up in catastrophe and discover why being a perfectionist is not always a bad thing.

22、   The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) released a report on Australian students’ sense of belonging in school in May. It described as “disturbing” some of the differences in Australian students’ sense of belonging between male and female students, students from high and low economic backgrounds, and students from different cultural backgrounds.

A sense of belonging in school is the degree to which students feel respected, accepted and supported by teachers and peers. It has been linked to students' attention and effort in class, their persistence and completion of learning activities. An understanding of belonging is important for educators. It allows them to plan effective practices to support students in the classroom and school-wide.

A study from the US found students' sense of belonging declines from year 7 through to year 11. With it, students' educational expectations also decrease. This decline may be due to a mismatch between students’ need for autonomy (自主) and interaction，and their learning environment. They may experience less supportive and caring teacher — student relationships，increased teacher control, and limited opportunities for autonomy. A similar study in Finland also found this might be because secondary students need to adapt to a larger social network and a larger number of teachers, so they may not know their peers or teachers as well.

Importantly, some groups of students may feel lower levels of belonging. This includes students with different cultural or language backgrounds, students with disabilities or students awkward in social interaction.

Teachers and schools play an important role in nurturing students’ sense of belonging. If a student considers their school and teacher to be caring and accepting，they’re more likely to adopt the academic and social values of their school and teacher. Teachers and schools can take steps to improve students' sense of belonging in school, which is important for all students and especially   those identified as being at-risk.

【1】Why is it important for educators to understand students’ sense of belonging?

A.Teachers can evaluate students' effort easily.

B.Students can plan their learning effectively.

C.Teachers can be more supportive to students.

D.Students can understand learning activities better.

【2】Students’ sense of belonging declines partly because.  ____________

A.they expect less of their academic performance

B.they care less about teacher-student relationship

C.they are less involved in teacher-student interaction

D.they are given limited opportunities for discussion

【3】What may be the author’s purpose in writing this article?

A.To advise teachers to raise students' level of belonging.

B.To persuade students to interact more with teachers.

C.To explain why students are less motivated in learning.

D.To present how schools can benefit both teachers and students.

23、They Love You More than You Know

Do you hesitate to ask your friends and family for help because you don’t want to be a burden? Don’t be afraid to ask; they want to be there to help you as you have been there for them. Researchers found that we are appreciated and cared for more than we know. They want to be the supportive friend for you, but what you have to do is trust them.

【1】 From parents to presidents, everyone has needed some assistance. You don’t have to face life alone. We all have people in our lives who are willing to help, from friends, classmates, roommates, co-workers, to parents and professors. No one is alone. You are not the first, and you won’t be the last person who needs assistance. So ask! It takes courage to admit you need help. So be brave! 【2】

Strength comes from your weakness and being able to step outside of your pride, your protective shell, your fear and say. “I need help.” Strength comes from letting go of what you've been taught, the way you’ve been raised, and knowing that sometimes you need a friend alongside you 【3】

Sometimes you need a little guidance or a bit of advice from someone who actually knows their fields. 【4】 They are working in their respective jobs because they have the knowledge that is necessary to help the company be successful. A librarian will be able to tell you where a book is. Doctors are able to provide you with the care you need to be healthy.

There are people in your world who do actually care about you. 【5】 You just have to put your self-respect aside and trust them.

A．But you have to hide it.

B．Everyone will need some help.

C．It might be scary, but it is worth it.

D．And they want to offer a helping hand.

E．It is so easy for people to ignore their need for help

F．They can be a doctor, a librarian, or even a grocery store clerk.

G．The friend may help carry those burdens weighing you down for so long

24、Why do we like drinking water form plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy — you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, they often buy bottles of cold water in summer.

However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source (资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn’t need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn’t need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, they don't recycle much of the plastic they use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.

So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn’t a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in halves, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.

【1】What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage? It’s ______.

A．expensive

B．healthy

C．clean

D．easy

【2】Plastic products are made from ______.

A．energy

B．oil

C．soil

D．plants

【3】________ of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006.

A．10%

B．50%

C．80%

D．90%

【4】Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?

A．To drop them into the river.

B．To make a plant pot.

C．To make a piggy bank.

D．To recycle them.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I have kept a watch from my grandfather. When I was a schoolboy, the watch hung by my grandfather’s bed. The case was gold. It was a splendid watch and I often stared at it longingly sitting with my grandfather. He would often ask about my progress at school. The day I told him my success in the examinations, he was overcome with pleasure.

He took off the watch and wound it. “It was given me for fifty years of faithful service with my firm,” he said proudly. I held the watch, feeling its weight. As I was leaving him, he said, “And you’ll not forget what I told you?” I was suddenly moved a lot.

Arriving home, my mother was to hold it in trust until she considered me old enough to look after it, but I protested so strongly that she finally agreed to hang it where I could always see it. The summer ended and it was time for me to enter the new school. I never made friends easily there. One boy, Crawley showed off his possessions. His bicycle was new; his boots were of the best hide; everything, in fact, was better than ours—until he brought a watch. Crawley said his watch was absolutely the finest watch.

“I have a better watch,” I announced. “Well, show it to us, ”Crawley said sneeringly. “I’ll bring it this afternoon,” I said. “Then you’ll see.” I rode my bike home, wondering how I would persuade my mother to let me take the watch. Luckily, she stepped outside and I slipped the watch into my pocket.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

I rode my bike fast to school after lunch, excitement through me.

When I said my mother couldn’t let me bring the watch, they burst into laughter.
