Communities had almost twenty years to make the change. So some students went to school for seven years while others went for at least nine years.This difference gave researchers the chance to see if the additional schooling had any effect on intellectual development.All young men in Norway must take a test of their cognitive ability at age nineteen in preparation for required military service. This is commonly called an IQ，or intelligence quotient test.The researchers compared the test results of one hundred and seven thousand young men to their years of school. Taryn Ann Galloway is a researcher at the University of Oslo.“The young men who were basically forced to stay in school for two years longer actually did have higher IQs. So，based on that，we were able to say that increasing compulsory schooling did actually have an effect on their cognitive abilities as measured at nineteen years of age.”Taryn Ann Galloway says.The average IQ is one hundred. Most people score between eightyfive and one hundred fifteen.Ms.Galloway says students who attended school for nine years scored seven points higher than those who attended for seven years. Those who went for eight years scored about four points higher.Taryn Ann Galloway says，“So that’s still quite large.”The findings appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Another recent study，in the journal Nature，found that IQ scores can rise or fall during the teenage years. In two thousand four，researchers from University College London tested thirty-three young people aged twelve to sixteen. They repeated the tests four years later. They found increases or decreases of as much as twenty points.Professor Cathy Price says the differences in performance could be the result of some teens being early or late developers. But she says it is equally possible that education played a part. She sees a lesson for educators：“We have to be careful not to write off poorer performers atan early stage when in fact their IQ may improve significantly given a few more years.”1．According to the passage，in Norway ________.A．teens stay at school longer than those in other countries B．students usually begin school at 7C．the public must carry out the requirement at onceD．the government did a lot of things to improve students’IQ 2．Young men in Norway must take an IQ test at 19 ________.A．to help researchers do a study on intellectual developmentB．to see whether their IQ scores rise or fallC．to prepare for the required military serviceD．to b e allowed to graduate from the school3．How did the researchers do their study?A．By comparison. B．By asking questions.C．B y giving examples. D．By discussion.4．From what Cathy Price says，we can know that ________.A．it is important to start educating earlierB．we shouldn’t jump to conclusions about teens’performance C．the IQ will be improved as one agesD．educators must try to improve teens’IQ5．What is the best title of the passage?A．Education quality is determined by studying timeB．The IQ is developing faster as one is getting olderC．Beginning school late does harm to studentsD．More school may mean higher IQ参考答案Ⅰ.语法和词汇知识1．【解析】选C。

AAs the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作品). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first o f which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Eight years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.Frédéric Chopin(1810-1849)Chopin was born in Warsaw, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.Franz Schubert(1797-1828)Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors, Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.1. Beethoven did not make a living by ________.A. teaching studentsB. giving concertsC. selling his worksD. doing business2. Bach worked as an organist in Weimar until ________.A. 1765B. 1707C. 1750D. 17173. What do we know about the four musicians?A. They all lived a hard life at their old age.B. They were all talented musicians.C. They became famous at a young age.D. They were all good at playing the piano.BWho would have thought that potato fries could unite an entire country? Well, that seems to be the case in Belgium where there is currently a movement to have Belgian potato fries officially recognized as cultural heritage.The fries are served in a paper cone(圆锥体) from a “fritkot”, which is a shack(小屋) or a food truck. Across Belgium, there are at least 5, 000 fritkots which is 10 times more common than McDonald's restaurants in the United States.The movement for the fries to be declared official cultural heritage was started by UNAFRI, also known as the national association of fritkot owners. They claim that their establishments represent Belgium very well. “A cone of potato chips is Belgium in miniature(微模型). What's amazing is that this way of thinking is the same, in spite of differences among communities and regions,” added spokesman Bernard Lefevre.Tourists can even be seen to line up with locals in Brussels to buy a cone of fries from well－known fritkots such as Frit F lagey and Maison Antoine. “Before I came here, the only thing I knew about Belgium was that they liked their fries,” said Rachael Webb, a tourist from Ottowa, Canada.In order to be recognized by UNESCO, it has to be formally supported by the Belgian government of culture.As of right now, UNESCO has a list of 314 items of “cultural heritage” that they say is worthy enough to be preserved. Items on the list include Turkish coffee and the old native singing of the Central African Republic.Potatoes reached Belgium in the 16th century, but it wasn't until the 19th century that they were cut up into fries and sold as a meal.4.It is considered that potato fries could unite Belgium because they________.represent Belgian history B. are enjoyed by many BelgiansC. make a huge profit each yearD. are recognized by foreigners5. The movement to have potato fries declared cultural heritage was started by________.A. the Belgian governmentB. many Belgian communitiesC. a Belgian industryD. a Belgian cultural association6. From the passage, we can know that Maison Antoine________.A. is a popular Belgian tourist destinationB. is very welcome among CanadiansC. is a famous restaurant in BelgiumD. is a big international company7. It can be inferred from the passage that foods and drinks________.A. are thought to be a symbol of national achievementB. are regarded as a culture by many peopleC. express ideas of a particular periodD. record the traditions of a regionCWildlife faces threats from habitat destruction, pollution and other human actions. Although protecting wildlife can seem difficult at times, even small actions in your own neighborhood can help protect many different animals. As the saying goes, “Think globally and act locally.” You can protect wild life for future generations.Create wildlife-friendly areas in your backyard. When choosing your lawn and landscaping, choose native plants that can provide food or living places for native wildlife. This will also help cut down on pollution. Add bird or bat houses to your yard or garden to attract these species and offer places to them to live in.Avoid disrupting(扰乱) the natural ecosystem in our area. Non-native plants or animals can destroy habitats, particularly if there is no natural predator(捕食性动物) to keep the species in a certain amount. They can kill or disturb native plants that provide food and living places for wildlife.Practice a greener lifestyle. By saving water and fossil fuels, you will be helping to protect the wildlife around you. Take public transportation when you can, turn off electric devices when you’re not using them, take shorter showers and keep your heat at or below 20°C during the winter. Become knowledgeable about what can cause global warming, which disrupts migration patterns and habitats.Buy products that are wildlife-friendly. Avoid products that are made from threatened or endangered animals. Keep in mind that some endangered animals are killed by traps, or hunters who are after other wildlife within the same habitat.Talk to or write to policymakers about protecting wildlife. Write letters to a local newspaper. Discuss ways to help animals with friends and family members.Limit the family size. Population growth is one of the major factors in habitat destruction. By living in established city limits and limiting the family size to around two children per family, the earth’s population will stabilize(稳定) and native habitats can be protected.8. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. It is impossible to protect wildlife.B. You can protect wildlife by taking small actions.C. Protecting wildlife needs ideas rather than actions.D. Humans are big threats to wildlife in fact.9. What should we do to protect wildlife?A. Stop non-native plants and animals destroying the natural ecosystem.B. Know more knowledge about wildlife.C. Increase the number of the population in the world.D. Write letters about animals to your friends.10. Which of the following can be taken as a greener lifestyle?A. Planting native trees in your backyard.B. Keeping the water above 20°C when you are bathing.C. Taking a bus when you are going out.D. Only eating vegetables.11. What’s the best title for the text?A. Why global warming affects wildlifeB. Whether we are friendly to wildlifeC. What makes wildlife endangeredD. How we can protect wildlifeDStarbucks says it uses one billion plastic straws(吸管) every year, but it plans to stop the use of plastic straws in each of its 28, 000 stores across the globe. Starbucks’ announc ement comes just a week after Seattle, the city where the first Starbucks opened, forbade plastic straws.In order to replace the straws, Starbucks has developed a new lid(盖子) for some of its drinks like iced coffee and tea. Actually, the lid has a raised lip. Some people have compared the new lids to “adult sippy cups”, CNN Business reported.Starbucks is always saying it is a company that cares much about the environment. In recent years, awareness about the effect that plastic is having on the environment—in particular, the ocean—has caused scientists to sound the alarm about a need to curb the use of plastics.“What we realize is that these billions of little things in the ocean, such as one man’s toothbrush, one lady’s comb, all can cause the problem,” Emily Penn said. She is the co-founder of an expedition(探险队).“But what makes us happy is that we can solve it well through our daily actions. We need billions of small actions—just little daily things to reduce the pollution.”Customers who still want to enjoy a Starbucks drink with a straw will be able to request one, but it won’t be plastic. Instead, they will be given a straw made from paper or other eco-friendly materials.In May, McDonald’ s said it would experience a change from the use of plastic to paper straws in Ireland and the United Kingdom. The announcement from Starbucks could be a sign that more large chain restaurants will accept this kind of activity.12.How does Starbucks serve customers without using plastic straws?By selling iced drinks.By providing cups without lids.By using spoons to replace straws.By providing a new kind of cups.13. What does the underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Stop. B．Notice. C．Control. D．Report.14. According to Emily Penn, what can be the main cause of sea pollution?A. Plastic alarms.B. Some special lids.C. Paper straws in the ocean.D. Small things thrown into the sea.15. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Starbucks Will Stop Using Plastic StrawsB. Starbucks Is Trying to Reduce Sea PollutionC. Starbucks Will Invent a New Kind of StrawsD. Starbucks Is Trying to Attract More Customers第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AAnger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents, a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug; go for a bike ride ; think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don't let your anger control you.21．You may not get angry when ________.A. there is too much homework this weekendB. your favorite basketball team wins the gameC. a friend breaks your favorite thingD. your parents don't let you watch TV22．________ doesn't show that you're angry.A. Taking a faster breathB. Getting a headacheC. Getting a stomachacheD. Wanting to protect someone23．According to the passage, you can do everything when you get angry EXCEPT ________.A. go for a bike rideB. think about good thingsC. talk to a good friendD. say bad things to the people around you答案：本文是一篇说明文，作者说明了生气时人的外在表现和内在影响，告诉人们应该尽量控制自己的情绪，尽量避免生气，同时给出了排解怒气的方法。

Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional,or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take theirparents and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.36.An effective way to prevent the burnout ofyoung athletes is_________.A.to make sport less competitiveB.to increase their sense of successC.to reduce their mental stressD.to make sport more challenging金戈37.According to the passage，sport is positive foryoung people in that__________.A.it can help them learn more about societyB.it enables them to find faults in themselvesC.it can provide them with valuableexperiencesD.it teaches them how to set realistic goals forthemselves38.Many coaches and parents are in the habit ofcriticizing young athletes________．A.believing that criticism is beneficial for theirearly developmentB.without realizing criticism may destroy theirself confidenceC.in order to make them remember life’slessonsD.so as to put more pressure on them39.According to the passage parents and coachesshould________．A.pay more attention to letting children enjoysportB.help children to win every gameC.train children to cope with stressD.enable children to understand the positiveaspect of sport40.The author’s purpose in writing the passageis________.A.to teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutB.to persuade young children not to worry aboutcriticismC.to stress the importance of positive support tochildrenD.to discuss the skill of combining criticism withencouragementBIf the Olympic Games are a history of mankind，wrestling(摔跤)is the prologue(序幕).When the ancient Games of the Olympiad were born,wrestling was already an ancient game.Widely recognized as the world’s oldest competitive sport，wrestling appeared in a series of Egyptian wall paintings as early as 5，000 years ago.When the ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC，more than two thousand years later，it included wrestling and in the years that followed，wrestling featured as the main event.The sport would return in a similar role when the Olympic Games returned after a 1500-year absence in anizers，seeking direct links to ancient times，found wrestling was very popular across much of the ancient world，from Greece，Assyria and Babylon to India,China and Japan.Greco Roman wrestling，a style which was believed to be passed down from the Greek and Roman wrestlers of old was brought back into use.In Greco-Roman wrestling，the wrestlers used only their arms and upper bodies to attack.They could hold only those same parts of their opponents(对手).It worked nicely from a historical attitude，but another cheerful and relaxing style was sweeping across Great Britain and the United States by then.Known as “catch as catch can”，it had become popular at fairs and festivals in both countries.In 1904，the Olympic Games added the second wrestling event and called it “freestyle”.Now，wrestlers could use their legs for pushing，lifting and tripping，and they could hold opponents above or below the waist.41.The first ancient Games of the Olympiad wereheld more than_______ years ago.A.776B.1,500C.2,500D.5,00042.What does the writer want to tell us by saying wrestling is the prologue?A.The ancient Olympic Games had a long history.B.Wrestling was an important game in theancient Olympic Games.C.Wrestling is popular all the time.D.Wrestling has a really long history.43.Why was Greco- Roman wrestling brought back into use in 1896 when the Olympic Games returned?anizers wanted to find direct links toancient times.B.Wrestling was very popular across much of theancient world.C.People believed it was passed down from theGreek and Roman wrestlers of old.D.All the above.44.Another style of wrestling became popularacross Great Britain and the United States，because it was________.petitiveB.difficultC.cheerful and relaxingD.interestingCThe Olympic Games are held every four years in a different city in the world.Athletes from many countries compete in a variety of sports which are divided into winter and summer games.The Olympics began in Greece more than 2,700 years ago.The games were originally part of a religious金戈festival in honor of the Greek gods.Eventually，the games became the most important festival in all of Greece.The first recorded Olympic competition was held in 776 B.C.It was held in an outdoor stadium which was about 200 meters long and 300 meters wide.The stadium was in a valley，and about forty thousand people watched the event.The first thirteen Olympics consisted of only one race—running.Since 776 B.C.，the games had been held regularly for about 1,200 years.In 397 the Olympics were prohibited by the Roman Emperor.It was not until 1896 that the first Olympics of modern games were held in Athens.From then on the games are held every four years regularly.The Olympics have become the world’s most important athletic events and a symbol of the sporting friendship of all the people of the world.45.The first modern Olympic Games were held.A.about 115 years agoB.about 200 years agoC.about 251 years agoD.about 300 years ago46.What does this passage mainly tell us?A.The history of the Olympic Games.B.Various sporting events of the OlympicGames.C.The Standard size of an Olympic stadium.D.Several important athletic events in ancientGreece.47.Which of the following statements is false?A.The Olympic Games were once prohibited.B.The first recorded Olympic competition washeld in honor of the Roman Emperor.C.Running used to be the only sporting event inthe ancient Olympic Games.D.Today the Olympic Games are the world’smost important athletic events.DWhat is America’s number one sport? Can I still say baseball? You could make that statement 30 years ago，but things have changed.Baseball of course has the richest history of all sports. But with the popularity of basketball and American football，there can now be an argument on which sport is American’s number one pastime.Basketball really took a turn in the 1980’s as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird took the NBA to another level. Of course，basketball was already popular and had seen such stars as Jerry West and Dr. J.,but the real breakthrough came in the 1980’s and it really took off with Michael Jordan into the 1990’s. Basketball has even become very global now as many NBA stars competed in the Olympics and faced no competition. Today，they had better be ready because there are so many talents in other countries and the competition will be stiff.Like basketball, American football has always been a favourite of many sports fans and its popularity has grown widely.The ratings that Super Bowl Sunday brings are amazing. They have even talked about making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday.In the year 2050, basketball and American football will have history like baseball’s rich history and may be American national sports. They have been trying for years, but it is not going to happen.So what is America’s number one sport? To me baseball will always be America’s pastime—rich in history and many memories for folks of all ages. If you have any comments on this subject,do not hesitate to give your opinions.48.This passage mainly talks about________.A.baseball and its historyB.the most popular sport in the worldC.which sport is the number one in AmericaD.whether basketball is a global sport pastime49.Which of the following words can replace theunderlined word “stiff” in Paragraph Two?A.safeB.hardC.crazyD.strong50.The author wrote the passage to_________.A.persuade people to support baseball asAmerica’s number one sportB.introduce the history of different sports inAmericapare different kinds of sports that arepopular among American peopleD.express his idea that baseball is America’snumber one sportⅣ.语法填空(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)T here was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love.One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving birds. __51__She cared them with love and the birds grew strong.Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song.The girl felt the great love from the birds.__52__The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage.The girl was so frightened that金戈he would fly away.As he flew close,she grasped him wildly.Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. __53__She opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird.Her desperate love had killed him.She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage.She could feel his great need for freedom.He needed to fly into the clear,blue sky. __54__The bird circled once,twice,three times.The girl watched delightedly at the bird s enjoyment. __55__She wanted the bird to be happy.Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder.It sang the sweetest song that she had ever heard.The fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight,while the best way to keep love is to give it wings!A.She gave them some delicious food and left.B.Suddenly she felt the bird go softly.C.Her heart was no longer concerned with herloss.D.One day she left with the two birds at homealone.E.She took them home and put them in a smallcage.F.One day the girl left the door of the cage open.G.She lifted him from the cage and threw himsoftly into the air.Ⅴ.书面表达（满分30分）最近你们学校将开展“创建文明班级（civilized classes），共建和谐校园（harmonious campus）”活动。

I was really nervous about what the next two weeks would bring. However, my roommates turned out to be overly welcoming and energetic, which made the transition very easy. Little did I know how close we would all become by the end of the two weeks!For the next two weeks we attended classes and had field trips. It actually killed me because I was a terrible hiker. One day our teacher rented a bus and led us to go hiking to different spots. We arrived at a river to eat lunch and sit on the bridge. I sat up onto the bridge looking down at the water below me. My phone was in my lap while I ate my food. Suddenly I heard the actual worst sound — a splash (溅落声). Without even looking down, I knew that my phone had dropped into the river.I was used to keeping my ID and bank cards in the back of my phone case. I stared down in disbelief at the flowing water. I stood up to jump off the bridge into the river, but Corina pulled me back. I started to scream because what else you could do when you were in a different country and your phone, ID and bank cards were about to disappear. Hope, one of my roommates, was along the bank and dove into the water to retrieve my things. With her help in time, I didn’t suffer any loss. The best tiling that came out of my study experience abroad was my roommates who became my close friends. Corina, Hope and Emily made my study experience abroad so memorable. We had so many truly memorable experiences during our time in Galway. I was amazed at how close we became in such a short time. One thing I have learned this year is that you have to hold the moment now! If I had waited to study abroad until this summer, which I once considered, all of these friendships and memories wouldn’t exist.4. What are the author’s roommates like according to Paragraph 1?A.

Daniel later changed his name to Daniel Defoe, wanting to sound more gentlemanly. Defoe went into business in 1683, having given up his earlier plan to become a dissenting minister (大臣). He traveled often, selling such goods as wine and wool, but was rarely out of debt. He went bankrupt (破产) in 1692, and decided to leave the business industry altogether.Having always been interested in politics, Defoepublished his first literary piece, a political booklet, in 1683. He continued to write political works, working as a journalist, until the early 1700s. Many of Defoe’s works during this period focused on supporting King William III, the then King of England. Some of his most popular works include The True-Born Englishman which uncovered racial prejudice (偏见) in England following attacks on William for being a foreigner. Political enemies of repeatedly had him imprisoned for his writing in 1713.Defoe took a new literary path in 1719, around the age of 59, when he published Robinson Crusoe, the best-known fiction novel based on several short essays that he had written over the years. A handful of novels followed soon after — often with criminals as lead characters — including Moll Flanders, Colonel Jack, and Captain Singleton. His last major fiction piece Roxana: The Fortunate Mistress came out in 1724. In the mid-1720s, Defoe returned to writing editorial pieces, focusingon such subjects as morality (道德), politics and the breakdown of social order in England. Some of his later works include Everybody’s Business, Is Nobody’s Business published in 1725.Defoe died on April 24, 1731. Defoe is remembered today as a journalist and a writer, and has been praised for his hundreds of fiction and non-fiction works. The characters that Defoe created in his fiction books have been brought to life countless times over the years, in editorial works, as well as stage and screen productions.8.

As a child of teachers, he was often immersed (沉浸在) in the world of classrooms, chalkboards and textbooks. While deeply inspired by his parents, Batra’s desire was always to go beyond traditional teaching methods. As a graduate student in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University, he has established a unique style of teaching that might affect how engineering courses are taught in classrooms.During his time at Texas A&M University, Batra joined the materials science program there. “I thought that it was the perfect place for me to combine my academic training in engineering science and electrical engineering with my research interest,” Batra said. “I couldn’t wait to jump in and begin my own research project.”Batra began working on his research project, attending classes and taking exams. However, the turning point came when he was hired to teach an introductory engineering course to undergraduate students. During this time, he grew increasingly dissatisfied with the standard slides(幻灯具) based method, particularly because slides, which arc 2D surfaces, were used to display complex 3D concepts.“I knew there has to be a better way to help students visualize in 3D,” Batra said. “I want to develop an instructional strategy that would really help my students to learn and enjoy the process while they arc in it.” He started to use 3D cardboard goggles (a kind of glasses) to study students’ motivation when materials science concepts were being taught: He found that when a slides-based lecture was combined with virtual reality, the students’ motivation increased by 77%.“I always remember what my parents taught me about the power of a pen in shaping society, and the influence of a teacher on the future generations of teachers, scientists, engineers, etc.,” Batra said. “In addition to being an educator, in the future I would love to have my own research lab where I can work with future generations of scientists to make discoveries and solve problems.”12. What can we know about Jaskirat Batra?A. He felt bored with school life as a child.B. He set a goal of being a teacher in college.C. He taught 3D technology at Texas A&M University.D. He devoted himself to improving traditional teaching methods.13. What did Jaskirat Batra think of the materials science program?A. It was boring.B. It was creative.C. It was attractive.D. It was promising.14. Why did Jaskirat Batra introduce the 3D-assistcd teaching method?A. To meet practical needs in his teaching.B. To respond to his students’ advice.C. To collect data for his research.D. To improve his teaching skills.15. What happened after Jaskirat Batra applied the 3D-assisted teaching method to his class?A. His students’ academic performances were improved.B. He no longer needed the standard slides-based method.C. His students’ enthusiasm for his class was increased.D. He popularized his teaching methods among his colleagues.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
