文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了加州12岁的学生将一张纸对折了12次,她目前保持着将一张纸对折次数最多的吉尼斯世界纪录。

3 . A common claim states that a sheet of paper cannot be folded in half more than seven times. But is this true?

In 2002, Britney Gallivan, then a junior in high school in Pomona, California, folded a single piece of paper in half 12 times. She currently holds the Guinness World Record for the most times to fold a sheet of paper in half.

The prompt that led Gallivan to accomplish this was an extra-credit challenge in math class to fold anything in half 12 times. Her teacher asked the students to fold something thicker: a piece of paper.

Gallivan said “it was very frustrating, as I had many unsuccessful attempts at trying to fold different papers in half. I began to question if folding paper in half more than eight times could be impossible.” However, Gallivan recalled. “I knew I needed to understand what was limiting the folding progression.”

The equations (方程式) that Gallivan came up with calculated how many times a sheet of paper could be folded. She found that in order to fold many times, a long thin sheet is needed — the more a sheet is folded, the thicker the resulting stack becomes, and once the stack becomes thicker than it is long, there is nothing left to fold. She ultimately set her record with a sheet of tissue paper she found online that was 4,000 feet (1,219 meters) — more than three-quarters of a mile, or over a kilometer long, Guinness World Records noted.

“Working on the problem took a tremendous amount of time and effort,” Gallivan said. “As frustrating as it was at times, I learned an immense amount from the experience, which has been valuable to me throughout my life in more capacities than one would expect.”

Since Gallivan set her record, others have made claims of folding a sheet of paper more than 12 times. Still, “I anticipate that my current record will be surpassed,” Gallivan said.

1. What prompts Gallivan to accept the challenge?
A.Peer pressure.
B.Mathematics anxiety.
C.Academic requirement.
D.Guinness World Records.
2. Under what circumstances is it impossible to fold a paper in half more times?
A.The stack is as thick as it’s long.
B.The paper is neither long nor thin.
C.The stack is thicker than it’s long.
D.The paper is longer than it’s thick.
3. What can we learn about Gallivan’s attempts?
A.It’s risky.
B.It’s fruitless.
C.It’s meaningless.
D.It’s energy-consuming.
4. What can we infer from the passage?
A.Gallivan’s record is impossible to break.
B.Folding paper in half is merely a math problem.
C.Folding things in half may not be limited to 12.
D.Folding paper 12 times is a required credit in high schools.

5 . Types Of Students You Will Meet In College

There are thousands of universities around the world, and each school boasts its own traditions and slogans. Some schools pride themselves on sports, while others emphasize their research facilities. While there are a myriad of differences among each and every school, there will always be these three types of students in class.

The one who sits in the front row

There’s at least one of these people in every single class,whether it’s a required General Education class or an upper division major course. These students always sit in the front row and ask at least five questions every lecture.

They attend all the discussions and office hours, and try to turn in homework at least a week in advance. These are also the people who remind professors about assigned homework and upcoming exams. Nothing bad about being studious, but are they even human?

The one who never studies (but still aces the class)

Standing as probably the most frustrating category of people in this list, these students won’t know about a midterm until two days before. They go to class every once in a while when the class time doesn’t clash with one of their many elaborate social plans, but never pay attention. Somehow, they still ace all their exams and end up with the top grade in the class.

The one who always falls asleep

This person comes to class every day, but somehow never stays awake for more than 20 minutes. You can sometimes hear the occasional snore from a corner of a large lecture hall, or catch their heads nodding like a pendulum near the front of the class if they’re the studious type. But let’s be real here: we’ve all been one of those students at some point.

1. Who always sit in the front row?
A.The studious students.
B.The sleepy students.
C.The smart students.
D.The frustrated students.
2. We can know that       from paragraph 4.
A.Some students never go to classes but still get top grades.
B.Some students never go to classes and get bad grades.
C.Some students go to lectures occasionally but still ace the class.
D.Some students go to lectures everyday and still ace the class.
3. From this article, most of us have been         .
A.The one who always falls asleep
B.The one who sits in the front row
C.The one who never falls asleep
D.The one who never studies (but still aces the class)

7 . 请在以下对话中提取相关信息,参考已给的例子将其整理好一篇小短文,内容包括大学录取方式、大学和专业的选择。

Liu Ming: Hi,Susan! Hi, Olivia! I have been thinking a lot recently about university. Have you guys made any plans yet?

Susan: Hi, Liu Ming! I guess I’ve thought about it, but I haven’t made any firm plans yet. How about you, Olivia?

Olivia: The same. My parents said that my future career might depend on what university I end up getting into.

Liu Ming: If I had a chance, I’d love to go to a top Chinese university. But it’s so hard. I need a really high score to pass the National College Entrance Exam.

Susan: Oh, in the UK, we don’t have a university entrance exam. We take a separate exam for each subject that we study. Then we use our grades to apply to a university. We also have to give a long essay to the university saying why we want to study our chosen subject.

Olivia: Well, in the US, we need to get really high grades and we need to take a college entrance exam. Plus we have to write an admission essay.

Liu Ming: So, we must all study extra hard, then. I really want to major in computer game design. I'd like to design fun games for children to learn with.

Susan: That’s a great idea! I’d like to study international business. According to the school’s careers advisor, it could help me find work overseas. It would be great to see more of the world!

Olivia: Hmm ... I’m not sure what I want to study as my major yet. But right now I’m thinking about robotics. I’m really interested in futuristic things.   

Liu Ming: How about cybersecurity or data science? I read that they’re really fascinating subjects you’re good at computer programming. But I’m hopeless at programming!

Susan: That’s a good point. I was told that there’s no point choosing a subject that you like you’re not very good at.

Olivia: Yes, and don’t forget that where you study is also important, too. I’m planning on taking few campus tours to see what the atmosphere and facilities are like.

Liu Ming: Good idea! I really hope that we can all find good universities.

Susan: Me, too. I hope we are all lucky and find great universities.

Olivia: Luck? Ha-ha! I think we all need to start studying even harder, too!

短文样例:

Liu Ming has been thinking a lot recently about university, which Liu considers to be a top Chinese university. It’s so hard to be admitted to a top university with a high score to pass the National College Entrance Exam. For success, Liu has to study extra hard, hoping to major in computer game design out of love for fun game design for children to learn with.

Susan

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了研究表明,在某些情况下,使用英语作为教学语言可能会对学习产生负面影响。

10 . English is increasingly used as a global language of instruction in higher education, known as English Medium Instruction or EMI. The aim is that a student taking a course in English should learn just as well as a student studying in their first language. But a new study involving 2,263 Swedish students now casts doubt on this assumption.

When these students registered for an introductory course in programming, they were randomly divided into two groups, either an English or a Swedish version of the course. The course was entirely digital and self-paced. Students’ performance was measured based on the number of correctly answered test questions and on how many left the course without completing it. When the researchers compared the number of questions answered correctly, they found that those studying in Swedish gave the correct answers to 73 percent more questions in the test.

“It’s important to remember that the only difference here is the language of instruction. The fact that the students on the Swedish-language course performed significantly better indicates that the use of English as the language of instruction can have a negative impact on learning under certain circumstances,” says Olle Bälter, one of the researchers from KTH Royal Institute of Technology.

When the researchers measured the student completion rate on the course, the results were confirmed; 25 percent more students dropped out of the English-language course.

The study now raises issues about the advantages and disadvantages of having such a large proportion (比例) of teaching at universities and higher education institutions in English, something that is common in Sweden as well as in other countries where English is not the first language for the majority of the population.

“It’s important to remember that a single study shouldn’t be used as the basis for a reform of the language or teaching policy in higher education. However, we believe the results from this research can contribute to a more informed discussion about the consequences of using English as the language of instruction,” says Bälter.

1. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?
A.How the study is conducted.B.What courses the students choose.
C.What information is needed.D.How the students are grouped.
2. What aspect is different between the courses taken by the two groups of students?
A.The questions for students.B.The content difficulty.
C.The teaching language.D.The class size.
3. What is the result of using EMI in higher education?
A.It reduces the dropout rate.B.It changes the focus of teaching.
C.It leads to poorer learning outcomes.D.It helps improve the students’ English.
4. What is Bälter’s attitude toward the result of the study?
A.Indifferent.B.PositiveC.Doubtful.D.Negative.
