知識點解析：節能是當前備受關注的一個話題，因此可說的內容很多，緊緊圍繞

提綱要求進行闡述是本文的鮮明特點。文章首段直截了當地提出能源短缺這樣一個

話題，中間段概括說明節能是解決能源短缺問題的重要措施之一，運用并列型擴展

法介紹了幾種節能措施。末尾段重中主題，再次強調問題的緊迫性和嚴重性。本

文詞語和句型運用自如。如第二段的列舉法雖然沒有使用first,second等詞語，但

使用了Also,Stillmore,使整個段落看起來內容充實，條理清楚。結尾段使用了此

類分析問題的作文的典型結尾句型“itishightimethat../\

2、WhatdidthestudypublishedinthejournalSciencereveal?

A^Testingisapassivestudyingmethod.

B>Testisthebestwaytoassesspeople'slearning.

C^Takingatesthelpspeoplelearnbetter.

D^Moretestsaren'tnecessarilybetterforstudents.

標準答案：C

知識點解析：該段提到，該研究于周四刊登在《科學》期刊的網站上。研究發現，

那些讀完文章后參加考試的學生在一周后所記住的內容要比采取另外兩種學習方法

的學生多出50%以上。由參加考試的學生記住的內容多可知，參加考試能幫助人

們學得更好,故答案為［C］。首段第二句提到的Itactuallyhelpspeopleleam（ItJHK

Takingatest）也印證了這一點。

3、Accordingtothepassage,themethodofrepeatedlystudyingthematerial.

A^shattersstudents,confidence

B、isverypopularamongstudents

C、ishighlypraisedbymanyteachers

D、worksbetterthanconceptmapping

標準答案：B

知識點解析:第3段首句提到的Oneofthosemethods指repeatedlystudyingthe

material,這種方法對眾多……應考的學生來說并不陌生。再結合第4段提到的

Theseothermethods...arepopular…可知，作為Theseothermethods之一的

repeatedlystudyingthematerial也應該是很popular的，故答案為［B］。

4、WhatdidMarciaLinnsayaboutthestudentswholooktherecalltests?

A、Theirmindseemstofunctionlessefficiently.

B、Theyaremoreoptimisticabouttheirperformance.

C、Theytendtostudyharderbeforeandafterthetest.

D、Theyreconstructtheknowledgeintheirownway.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：這兩段都是MarciaLinn對參加回想考試的學生的看法。第9段提

到，她（MarciaLing繼續說道，他們……按照他們自己能夠理解的方式來組織所學

知識）,其中they指代Thestudentswhotooktherecalltestso［D］中的reconstructthe

knowledgeintheirownway正是對第9段提到的organizetheknowledge...inaway

thatmakessensetothem的同義轉述，故答案為［D］。

5、Inthefirstexperiment,thestudentsinthethirdgroupusedthemethodof.

A、drawingdetaileddiagrams

B、readingthepassagerepeatedly

C、reorganizingthepassage

D、takingatestbeforereading

標準答案：A

知識點解析：該段首先提到笫三個小組則采取“概念圖學習法”，隨后對該方法進行

解釋：學生把文中的細節……記在手繪的標注框中……將各個標注框連結起來，將

文章制成示意圖。由此可知，第三小組使用的“概念圖學習法”就是將文章繪制成標

注了詳細信息的示意圖，故答案為［A］。

6、Intheinitialphaseofthesecondexperiment,thestudentsusingretrieval

practice.

A、didmuchbetterintheshort-answertests

didbetterindrawinglogicalconclusions

C、recalledlessdetailsthantheothergroup

D、preformedbetterthantheconceptmappers

標準答案：C

知識點解析：該段末句提到，在最初階段，studentswhomadediagrams

whileconsultingthepassage給出的細節要多過studentsaskedtorecallwhattheyhad

justreadinanessayo結合首句可知，students...consultingthepassage指的是使用

conceptmapping的學生，students...recallwhattheyhadjustread…指的是使用

retrievalpracticetesting的學生。由此可反推出，使用retrievalpracticetesting的學生

回憶起的細節少于另一組使用conceptmapping的學生，故答重為［C］。

7、Studentswhotookretrievalpracticetestswerelessconfidentabouttheirperformance

dueto

A、theformerfailures

thestruggleinvolved

C^thedifficultyofthematerials

D、thecompetitors'advantages

標準答案：B?

知識點解析：第19段提到，或許這也解釋了為什么參加回想考試的學生對自己一

周后的表現情況較為缺乏自信，ihatisalsowhy表明，出現上述現象的原因應該在

前文中找。前一段提到，這也可能是因為回想時的struggleinvolved能夠幫助鞏固

記憶。由此可知，參加回想考試的學生對自己一周后的表現情況較為缺乏自信是因

為回想時的struggleinvolved,故答案為［B］。

8、AccordingtoProfessorDanielWillingham,bycomparingtestingwithconcept

mapping,thePurduestudy.

A、madetestingagoldstandard

B、provedmanyeducatorscorrect

C^increasedthesignificanceoftesting

D、stressedtheimportanceofactivelearning

標準答案：C

知識點解析：該句表明了DanielWillingham對thePurduestudy的看法。題干中的

AccordingtoProfessorDanielWillingham與該句提到的saidDanielWillingham對

應，bycomparingtestingwithconceptmapping與bycontrastingitwithconcept

mapping對應，［C］increasedthesignificanceoftesting與bumpsitupalevel

ofimportance對應，故答案為［C］。

9、HowardGardnersaideducatorswhoadvocatedconceptmappingwereto

provethatthisapproachwassuperior.

標準答案：challenged

知識點解析：空前的were以及空后的to表明，本空應填一過去分詞。題干中的

HowardGardnersaid與該段提到的hecontinued（he指代HowardGardner）對應，

educatorswhoadvocatedconceptmapping與Educatorswhoembrace...concept

mapping對應，were與are對應，toprovethatthisapproachwassuperior與

to...demonstratethesuperiorityofsuchactiveapproaches對應，故文中to前面的

challenged即為本題答案。

10、Ineducation,toomuchtestingiscriticizedfbrwastingstudents,timefbrlearning

newthingsandcausing.

標準答案:excessivestudentanxiety

知識點解析：空前的causing表明，本空應填一名詞（短語），與wasting…timefor

learningnewthings并列說明過多考試被指責的一個原因。題干中的Ineducation為

原文信息重現，toomuchtesting與toomuch（后面省略了testing）對應，iscriticized

fui與diiiwingciilicisni對應，wabling...timeRnlearningnewihings與原因之

swallowsvaluabletimeforlearningnewthings對應，andcausing與andcauses對應，

故本空應填andcauses后面的excessivestudentanxietyo

II、Dr.Linn'sworkwithCaliforniaschooldistrictsindicatedthatsomeversionof

retrievalpracticetestingwasnottostudents.

標準答案：beneficial

知識點解析：題干中的Dr.Linn'sworkwithCaliforniaschooldistrictsindicatedthat

與該段提到的herworkwithCaliforniaschooldistrictshadfoundthat對應，that賓語

從句說明了該發現：對學生benefkial（有利的）的是讓學生解釋他們在科學實驗中做

/什么事情，而不是讓池們直接動手做實驗（這是retrievalpracticetesting的一種）。

由此可反推出，讓學生直接動手做實驗，即讓學生參加retrievalpracticetesting并

不能有利于學生，故本空應填beneficial。

rose[I]usually[N]exams[E]increasing[J]difficulty|O]difference

48、[SI]

標準答案：O

知識點解析：分析句子結構可知，所填詞應為名詞作賓語。同時空格前面的the提

示所填詞指的是上一句話，因此根據上一句話中的whallookslikeimproved

efficiency和fallingquahty看出此空應填difference0

49、[S2]

標準答案：A

知識點解析：空格所在位置決定所填詞應能修飾teachers,并能被alot修飾，觀察

列表中符合條件的只有Afewer^n[H]better<>而通過下一段中的In1992-1993,709

full-timeinstructors和In2002-2003,'thenumberofregistrations是623,可以看出

教師現在比十年前少了，因此選fewer。

50、[S3]

標準答案：M

知識點解析:從上一句可知In1992-1993,教師的數量是709,而In旬02-2003教

師的數量是623,可以看出數量呈下降的趨勢，觀察列表中只有和B

declining表示下降的概念。再分析本句結構可以看出while從句中缺少謂語動詞，

因此fell是答案。

51、[S4]

標準答案：D

知識點解析：從空格后的數字from77to97可以看出平均每個教師的注冊學生人數

上升了，而列表中只有[E]increasing和Drose表示上升的概念。再分析本句的結構

可知，空格處應為渭晤動詞，故只能選rose。

52、[S5]

標準答案：B

知識點解析：分析本句結構可以看出，所填詞應能修飾quality。空格所在句是一

個設問句，因此應從下文找答案，根據本段最后---句市的qualityischangingover

time,以及下一段中的changesinqualily看出，教育質量變化了，7旦究竟是變好還

是變壞呢?下一段第一句話指出教育指導方法的變化間接地反映出質量的變化。下

文最后兩句指出現在學生的考試只是多項選擇，而過去班級規模小時，每個學生都

有機會寫短論文，老師給評判。從這一變化可以看出教育方法變壞了，因此這里應

選decliningo同時所填

53>[S6]

標準答案：G

知識點解析：空格所在位置要求所填詞能被test修飾，因此只能選名詞。同時所填

詞還需要能和compare搭配，觀察列表中只有[G]rcsults符合要求。testresults的意

思是“測試結果”。

54、[S7]

標準答案：K

知識點解析：分析句子結構可知，whether從句做空格所填詞的賓語，而該詞同時

又必須能做介詞of的賓語。觀察列表中符合條件的只有Bdeclining,|E|increasing

和[K]judging,而符合句意的只有judging同時while提示所填詞和maketheirown

comparisons形成照應。

55、[S8]

標準答案：F

知識點解析：空格前面的an提示所填詞應為名詞。上一段最后一句提到學生沒辦

法判斷教育質量是否變化，而本段給出解決辦法，即通過Examiningchangesin

methodsofinstruction來判斷，四此選measureo

56、[S9]

標準答案：I

知識點解析：空格位置決定所填詞應為副詞。列表中只有[I]usuaHy,[J]difficulty和

[L]rarely符合條件，而根據后文中的allexamsarcbasedoncomputer-graded

multiple-choicequeslions可以看出人數很多，所以才采取計算機打分的多項選擇題

來測試學生，因此選usually,而不選rarely?

57、[S10]

標準答案：C

知識點解析：分析句子可知，所填詞應能被the修飾，作表語。而根據本句中的

Today和下一句中的Inihepast看出兩句是對比關系，現在應該大多都是400人的

班，因此過去每班不到100人才是正常的，同時根據后面的studentshadthe

opportunitytowriteshortessayanswers看出，只有人數少，學生才有機會寫短文讓

教師評估，因此選norm。
