21、Language learning is a long-term process—it takes commitment and enthusiasm. And just like any long-term goal, we all need encouragement from time to time to keep us going【1】.

Remember why you started

When you first started your language journey, it was for a reason. Perhaps you wanted to get more out of your travels or make yourself more competitive in the marketplace. When your brain is focused on learning, it makes sense that these concrete goals may slip out of your mind.【2】.

Reflect on what you’ve learned so far

Learning a new language is undoubtedly a huge undertaking and you’ll feel overwhelmed. But before you look ahead, take some time to reflect on how far you’ve come.【3】Being able to hold something that’s a direct result of your effort will help you stay on track.

Identify distractions

When our energy dips, it’s the best way to identify the choices that are distracting us from our goals. Maybe it’s our environment to staying up-to-date with television shows, or that extra hour of Facebooking before we go to bed.【4】We have a limited amount time and energy and every decision we make has trade-offs. Find a balance so that we have enough time to achieve the things that are really important to us.

【5】.

To stay on track, divide up your main goal of learning a new language into smaller goals, and then reward yourself after you reach each one. Perhaps that means after you master all the vocabulary in the food and drink category you’ll finally throw that fancy dinner party you’ve been dreaming about. A big reward at the end, such as an international trip, can certainly be motivating, but don’t forget to also celebrate your small triumphs along the way.

A．Reward Yourself.

B．Build confidence through practice.

C．The most important thing is to do something every day.

D．With that in mind, here are our top tips for staying motivated to keep learning.

E．For example, you can try writing a short story or poem in the new language you’re learning.

F．Whatever our distraction of choice it’s important to recognize it and ask if we can do without it.

G．But research shows that returning to these images and visualizing your goals can help you succeed.

23、Flying High

Barrington Irving landed his record-breaking light at age 23 and founded an educational nonprofit organization. His message for kids: “The only thing that separates you from scientists is determination, hard work and a strong liking for what you want to achieve.” The secret, he believes, is having a dream in the first place.

The moment of inspiration for Irving came at the age of 15 in his parents’ bookstore. One customer, a professional pilot, asked Irving if he’d thought about becoming a pilot. “I told him I didn’t think I was smart enough; but the next day he took me to the cockpit (驾驶舱) of the commercial airplane he flew and just like that I was hooked.”

To follow his dream, Irving Turned down a football scholarship to the University of Florida. He washed airplanes to earn money for a flight school and increased his flying skills by practicing at home on a $40 flight simulator (模拟) video game. Then another dream took hold: flying alone around the world. He faced more than 50 rejections for sponsorship before convincing some companies to donate aircraft components. He took off with no weather radar, no de-icing system, and just $30 in his pocket.

After 97 days, 26 stops and dozens of thunderstorms, he touched down to a cheering crowd in Miami. “It was seeing so many young people watching and listening that pushed me into giving back with my knowledge an experience.” Irving has been doing it ever since. He set up his non-profit organization, Experience Aviation (航空), aiming to increase the numbers of youth in aviation career. By bring challenging project-based learning, hands-on and other educational opportunities to school districts and local communities nationwide, the organization has excited the hearts and minds of youth. “We want to create chances for students to accomplish something amazing,” he notes. Perhaps Irving’s most powerful educational tool is the example his own life provides.

【1】According to Irving, what is the most important in achieving success?

A.Meeting people to get sponsorship.

C.Communicating with different organizations.

D.Getting chances to study technical knowledge.

A.He finally raised enough money to keep going.

B.he chose to reduce his budget as low as possible.

C.He took on a further challenge while learning to fly.

D.He got the most useful flying tips from video games.

A.To become a well-known public figure.

B.To start a business in other related fields.

D.To direct more youth to a career in aviation.

【4】Which of the following best describes Irving as a pilot?

C.Generous. D.Determined.

24、

Removing the sleeve (封套), you will find a book that is entirely white,except for the names of its author and subject in elegant black type on the cover. It is the perfect design for the biography of a man who insisted that even the insides of his products be perfectly constructed, and that his factory walls flash in the whitest white.

The cover was the only part of the book Steve Jobs wanted to control,writes Isaacson in his introduction.Though Mr. Jobs pushed the biographer of Albert Einstein and Benjamin Franklin to write in his own way, generously allowing the writer more than 40 interviews, this book offers quite a different view of Mr. Jobs, who won much praise from his fans after his death on October 5th at the age of 56.

As a biographer of Albert Einstein and Benjamin Franklin, Mr. Isaacson knows how to celebrate long­dead genius, but he claimed that Steve Jobs would not be entirely praiseful words.The picture he paints, particularly in the first half of this book, is not nice. Mr. Jobs emerges as a controlling and often cold­blooded character. A child of the 1960s counter­culture (反主流文化)，he hated materialism and lived in simply furnished houses (in part because he was too particular about furniture),But when Apple went public in 1980, he refused to give any share to Daniel Kottke, a longtime supporter and soul mate from college. “He has to abandon the people he is close to”, observes Andy Hertzfeld, an early Apple engineer.

Mr. Jobs was undoubtedly possessing an extraordinary ability to attract others and inspire a kind of faith that could not be questioned. But also he could be cold and cruel. If he disapproved of an employee’s work，he often shamed him.“This is who I am,” he once said after being challenged,“and you can’t expect me to be someone I’m not.” This disgusting personality wasn’t always helpful, but it served a purpose, writes Mr. Isaacson, many would “end their chain of horror stories by saying that he got them to do things they never dreamed possible”．

Mr. Isaacson treats Steve Jobs as the biography of record,which means that it is a strange book to read so soon after its subject’s death.

【1】The biography for Jobs is believed to have the perfect design because________.

A. it follows Jobs’ style

B. its cover is entirely white

C. black and white are his favorite

D. it is designed by a famous biographer

【2】The picture of Jobs that Isaacson paints in his book is________.

①cruel ②humorous ③particular ④generous

A. ①③   B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④

【3】It can be safely concluded that________.

A. Jobs is highly spoken of in the book  

B. Isaacson doesn’t think Jobs a good man

C. Jobs didn’t care about the design of the book

D. all descriptions of Jobs are not nice in the book

【4】This passage can be classified as________.

A. a personal diary   B. a book review 

C. a news report    D. a TV interview

25、Standards for Schools: Developing Organizational Accountability(绩效)

Quality teaching depends on teachers' knowledge and skills but on the environment in which they work. Schools need to offer a coherent curriculum focused on higher-order thinking and performance across subject areas and grades, time for teachers to work_________with students to accomplish challenging goals, opportunities for teachers to plan with and learn from one another, and regular occasions to evaluate the outcomes of their_________.

If schools are to become more responsible, they must, like other professional organizations, make evaluation and assessment part of their everyday lives.

As Richard Rothstein and his colleagues describe in Grading Education: Getting Accountability Right, school-level accountability can be supported by school _________, like those common in many other nations, in which trained experts evaluate schools by spending several days visiting classrooms,___________samples of student work, and interviewing students about their understanding and their experiences,___________looking at objective data such as test scores, graduation rates, and so on. In some cases, principals accompany the inspectors into classrooms and are asked for their own evaluations of the lessons. In this way, the inspectors are able to make _________about the instructional and supervisory competence(能力)of principals. As described earlier, inspectors may also play a role in ensuring the _________ and comparability of school-based assessments(as in England and Australia), as well as schools internal assessment and evaluation process(as in Hong Kong).

In most countries’ inspection systems, schools are rated on the quality of instruction and other services and supports, as well as students’___________and progress in a wide range of aspects, including and going beyond academic subject areas, such as extra-curricular, personal and social______________, the acquisition of workplace skills and the________________to which students are encouraged to adopt safe practices and a ______________lifestyle. Schools are rated as to whether they pass inspection, need modest improvements, or require serious intervention(介入), and they receive extensive feedback on what the inspections both saw and ________________. Reports are publicly posted. Schools requiring intervention are then given more expert ____________and support, and are placed on a more frequent schedule of visits. Those that persistently fail to pass may be placed under local government control and could be____________ if they are not improved.
