Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph mor

10、e than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Make Stuff, Fail, And Learn While Youre At It A)Weve always been a hands-on, do-it-yourself kind of nation. Ben Franklin, one of Americas founding fathers, didnt just inven

11、t the lightning rod. His creations include glasses, innovative stoves and more.B)Franklin, who was largely self-taught, may have been a genius, but he wasnt really an exception when it comes to American making and creativity.C)The personal computing revolution and philosophy of disruptive innovation

12、 of Silicon Valley grew, in part, out of the creations of the Homebrew Computer Club, which was founded in a garage in Menlo Park, California, in the mid-1970s. Members including guys named Jobs and Wozniak started making and inventing things they couldnt buy.D)So its no surprise that the Maker Move

13、ment today is thriving in communities and some schools across America. Making is available to ordinary people who arent tied to big companies, big defense labs or research universities. The maker philosophy echoes old ideas advocated by John Dewey, Montessori, and even ancient Greek philosophers, as

14、 we pointed out recently.E)These maker spaces are often outside of classrooms, and are serving an important educational function. The Maker Movement is rediscovering learning by doing, which is John Deweys phrase from 100 years ago. We are rediscovering Dewey and Montessori and a lot of the practice

15、s that they pioneered that have been forgotten or at least put aside. A maker space is a place which can be in a school, but it doesnt look like a classroom. It can be in a library. It can be out in the community. It has tools and materials. Its a place where you get to make things based on your int

16、erest and based on what youre learning to do.F)Ideas about learning by doing have struggled to become mainstream educationally, despite being old concepts from Dewey and Montessori, Plato and Aristotle, and in the American context, Ralph Emerson, on the value of experience and self-reliance. Its not

17、 necessarily an efficient way to learn. We learn, in a sense, by trial and error. Learning from experience is something that takes time and patience. Its very individualized. If your goal is to have standardized approaches to learning, where everybody learns the same thing at the same time in the sa

18、me way, then learning by doing doesnt really fit that mold anymore. Its not the world of textbooks. Its not the world of testing. G)Learning by doing may not be efficient, but it is effective. Project-based learning has grown in popularity with teachers and administrators. However, project-based lea

19、rning is not making. Although theres a connection, there is also a distinction. The difference lies in whether the project is in a sense defined and developed by the student or whether its assigned by a teacher. Well all get the kids to build a small boat. We are all going to learn about X, Y, and Z

20、. That tends to be one form of project-based learning.H)I really believe the core idea of making is to have an idea within your head or you just borrow it from someone and begin to develop it, repeat it and improve it. Then, realize that idea somehow. That thing that you make is valuable to you and

21、you can share it with others. Im interested in how these things are expressions of that person, their ideas, and their interactions with the world.I)In some ways, a lot of forms of making in school trivialize (使变得无足轻重) making. The thing that you make has no value to you. Once you are done demonstrat

22、ing whatever concept was in the textbook, you throw away the pipe cleaners, the straws, the cardboard tubes.J)Making should be student-directed and student-led, otherwise its boring. It doesnt have the motivation of the student. Im not saying that students should not learn concepts or not learn skil

23、ls. They do. But to really harness their motivation is to build upon their interest. Its to let them be in control and to drive the car.K)Teachers should aim to build a supportive, creative environment for students to do this work. A very social environment, where they are learning from each other.

24、When they have a problem, it isnt the teacher necessarily coming in to solve it. They are responsible for working through that problem. It might be they have to talk to other students in the class to help get an answer.L)The teachers role is more of a coach or observer. Sometimes, to people, it soun

25、ds like this is a diminished role for teachers. I think its a heightened role. Youre creating this environment, like a maker space. You have 20 kids doing different things. You are watching them and really its the human behaviors youre looking at. Are they engaged? Are they developing and repeating

26、their project? Are they stumbling (受挫)? Do they need something that they dont have? Can you help them be aware of where they are?M)My belief is that the goal of making is not to get every kid to be hands-on, but it enables us to be good learners. Its not the knowledge that is valuable, its the pract

27、ice of learning new things and understanding how things work. These are processes that you are developing so that you are able, over time, to tackle more interesting problems, more challenging problems problems that require many people instead of one person and many skills instead of one.N)If teache

28、rs keep it form-free and student-led, it can still be tied to a curriculum and an educational plan. I think a maker space is more like a library in that there are multiple subjects and multiple things that you can learn. What seems to be missing in school is how do these subjects integrate, how they

29、 fit together in any meaningful way. Rather than saying, “This is science, over here is history,” I see schools taking this idea of projects and looking at: How do they support children in a higher level learning?O)I feel like this is a shift away from subject matter-based curriculum to a more exper

30、iential curriculum or learning. Its still in its early stages, but I think its shifting around not what kids learn but how they learn.36.A maker space is where people make things according to their personal interests.37.The teachers role is enhanced in a maker space as they have to monitor and facil

31、itate during the process.38.Coming up with an idea of ones own or improving one from others is key to the concept of making.39.Contrary to structured learning, learning by doing is highly individualized.40.America is a nation known for the idea of making things by oneself.41.Making will be boring un

32、less students are able to take charge.42.Making can be related to a project, but it is created and carried out by students themselves.43.The author suggests incorporating the idea of a maker space into a school curriculum.44.The maker concept is a modern version of some ancient philosophical ideas.4

33、5.Making is not taken seriously in school when students are asked to make something meaningless to them based on textbooks.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A)

34、, B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Most kids grow up learning they cannot draw on the walls.

35、hat training this summer, group of culture addicts, artists and community organizers are inviting New Yorkers to write all over the walls of an old house on Governors Island.The project is called Writing On It All, and its a participatory writing project and artistic experiment that has happened on

36、Governors Island every summer since 2013.“Most of the participants are people who are just walking by or are on the island for other reasons, or they just kind of happen to be there,” Alexandra Chasin, artistic director of Writing On It All, tells S.The 2016 season runs through June 26 and features

37、sessions facilitated by everyone from dancers to domestic workers. Each session has a theme, and participants are given a variety of materials and prompts and asked to cover surfaces with their thoughts and art. This year, the programs range from one that turns the house into a collaborative essay t

38、o one that explores the meaning of exile.Governors Island is a national historic landmark district long used for military purposes. Now known as “New Yorks shared space for art and play,” the island, which lies between Manhattan and Brooklyn in Upper New York Bay, is closed to cars but open to summe

39、r tourists who flock for festivals, picnics, adventures, as well as these “legal graffiti (涂鸦)” sessions.The notes and art scribbled (涂画) on the walls are an experiment in self-expression. So far, participants have ranged in age from 2 to 85. Though Chasin says the focus of the work is on the activi

40、ty of writing, rather than the text that ends up getting written, some of the work that comes out of the sessions has stuck with her.“One of the sessions that moved me the most was state violence on black women and black girls,” says Chasin, explaining that in one room, people wrote down the names o

41、f those killed because of it. “People do beautiful work and leave beautiful messages.”46.What does the project Writing On It All invite people to do?A) Unlearn their training in drawing.C) Cover the walls of an old house with graffiti.B) Participate in a state graffiti show.D) Exhibit their artistic

45、females.B)It helped expand the influence of graffiti art.C)It has started the career of many creative artists.D)It has created some meaningful artistic works.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Online programs to fight depression are already commercially available. While

46、 they sound efficient and cost-saving, a recent study reports that they are not effective, primarily because depressed patients are not likely to engage with them or stick with them.The study looked at computer-assisted cognitive (认知的) behavioral therapy (CBT) and found that it was no more effective

47、 in treating depression than the usual care patients receive from a primary care doctor.Traditional CBT is considered an effective form of talk therapy for depression, helping people challenge negative thoughts and change the way they think in order to change their mood and behaviors. However, onlin

48、e CBT programs have been gaining popularity, with the attraction of providing low-cost help wherever someone has access to a computer.A team of researchers from the University of York conducted a randomized (随机的) control trial with 691 depressed patients from 83 physician practices across England. The patients were split into three groups: one group received only usual care from a physician while the other
