Question

【題目】 How do you feel when your teacher asks you to work on a group project with other students? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?

The Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of students' ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people.

This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems. But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who tend（趨向）to have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative（合作的）skills.

“One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades, ”said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association.“Students have a lot of exam pressure and they view school as a place for competition.”

“However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society, ”he added.“Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill.”

Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls tend to be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes toward relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to others' opinions.

PISA also found that the classroom environment tends to influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication, such as class debates, students tend to have better attitudes toward collaborating.

【2】What can teachers do to improve their students' ability to work with others?

A.Give students high scores on every test.B.Help students to get used to exam pressure.

本篇是對(duì)學(xué)生的小組合作能力進(jìn)行了調(diào)查得出的結(jié)論：自己考得好的學(xué)生也可能更擅長(zhǎng)與他人合作；女孩比男孩更擅長(zhǎng)協(xié)作；課堂環(huán)境往往會(huì)影響學(xué)生的協(xié)作能力。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people.”， 根據(jù)第六段“Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls tend to be better than boys at working together. ” 根據(jù)第七段“PISA also found that the classroom environment tends to influence how well students collaborate.”，可知“調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示自己考得好的學(xué)生也可能更擅長(zhǎng)與他人合作；女孩比男孩更擅長(zhǎng)協(xié)作；課堂環(huán)境往往會(huì)影響學(xué)生的協(xié)作能力”；可知B表述的“協(xié)作能力對(duì)學(xué)生將來的重要性”不屬于調(diào)查得出的結(jié)論，故選B。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第七段“In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication, such as class debates, students tend to have better attitudes toward collaborating.”，可知“有很多需要交流活動(dòng)的課，學(xué)生能持更好的態(tài)度合作”，由此可知“在課堂上老師要安排更多的交際活動(dòng)。”；故選D。

【3】主旨大意題。本篇是對(duì)學(xué)生的小組合作能力進(jìn)行了調(diào)查出的結(jié)論：自己考得好的學(xué)生也可能更擅長(zhǎng)與他人合作；女孩比男孩更擅長(zhǎng)協(xié)作；課堂環(huán)境往往會(huì)影響學(xué)生的協(xié)作能力；故選C。

本篇閱讀單選考查推理判斷和主旨?xì)w納能力。題1要根據(jù)文本敘述的調(diào)查結(jié)果排除選項(xiàng)B，選項(xiàng)B是中國(guó)家庭教育協(xié)會(huì)副主席趙中信的陳述，不是調(diào)查的結(jié)果。
