B 　     We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, other, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it. 　　   Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect—but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher. 　　   Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them—a form of favourtism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill—respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lake of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well—respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child for m a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school. 　　   The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.

88. The word “favouritism” in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that________. 　　A. bright children also need certificates go get satisfying jobs. 　　B. children from well—respected schools tend to have good jobs 　　C. poor children with certificates are favoured in job markets 　　D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success

89. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author? 　　A. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation. 　　B. There would be more opportunities and excellence. 　　C. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools. 　　D. Children’s job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation.

90. The opponents of the examination system will agree that _________. 　　A. jobs should not be assigned by systematic selection 　　B. computers should be selected to take over many jobs 　　C. special classed are necessary to keep the school standards 　　D. schools with academic subjects should be done away with

91. The passage mainly focuses on ___________. 　　A. schools and certificates       B. examination and equality 　　C. opportunity and employment   D. standards and reputation

C Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A—F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. A. New teachers’ opinions of involving parents B. An argument over an assignment [来源:Z#xx#k.Com] C. A conflict between assumption and reality D. Difficulties in sharing goals AB. The best way to score high AC. Proper ways of parental involvement 92. _________________________________ An Iowa high school counselor gets a call from a parent protesting the “C” her child received on an assignment. “The parent argued every point in the essay,” recalls the counselor, who soon realized why the mother was so disappointed about the grade. “It became apparent that she’d written it.” 93. ________________________________- In a survey, 90% of new teachers agreed that involving parents in their children’s education is a priority at their school, but only 25%described their experience working with parents as “very satisfying.” When asked to choose me biggest challenge they face, 31% of them quoted involving parents and communicating with them as their top choice. 73%of new teachers said too many parents treat schools and teachers as enemies. 94.__________________________________ At a time when competition is rising and resources are limited, when battles over testing force schools to adjust their priorities, when cell phones and e-mail speed up the information flow and all kinds of private ghosts and public quarrels slip into the parent-teacher conference, it’s harder for both sides to step back and breathe deeply and look at the goals they share. 95.__________________________________ Everyone says the parent-teacher conference should be pleasant, civilized, a kind of dialogue where parents and teachers build partnership. But what most teachers feel, and certainly what all parents feel, is anxiety and panic. 96.___________________________________ When a teacher asks parents to be partners, he or she doesn't necessarily mean Mom or Dad should be camping in the classroom. Research shows that though students benefit modestly fro m having parents involved at school, what happens at home matters much more. According to research based on the National Education Longitudinal Study, a sample of nearly 25,000 eighth graders, among four main areas of parental involvement (home discussion, home supervision. school communication, and school participation), home discussion was the most strongly related
