请阅读Passage 1,完成第21~25小题。
Passage 1
The ugly word “staycation” was coined to describe the trend towards people staying at home during their vacation-going
out for day trips, perhaps, but using their home as their base. There is as yet no word to describe the growing trend for
people to do pretty much the reverse: going away on holiday but blending in some work—maybe quite a lot of it-into their
holiday time. For many, indeed for many away this month, the frontier between work and leisure has become much more
blurred. Each blends into the other, and not always to the benefit of either.
It is a trend we all recognise, but why is it happening? There is one obvious reason and some other rather less-obvious
ones. The obvious one is the ubiquitous nature of communications. It is not just that everyone can be in touch with their
work just about anywhere; it is also that for many people the tools they need to do their work-broadband for a start-are
available too. Finishing a report or polishing a document can be done anywhere. On the Internet no one needs to know
where you are.
But there is more to this transformation in behaviour. Just as important are the changing composition of the workforce and
the changing nature of work itself. As far as the workforce is concerned, the biggest change has been the growth of selfemployment,
which has nearly doubled in the UK over the past 25 years. Management writer Charles Handy identified the
growing division between core workers and portfolio workers back in 1990 in his book The Age of Unreason. People would
learn their craft and make their contacts working full-time in whatever field they had specialised in as core workers, then
later on they would go portfolio, self-employed and working for clients.
The combination of the growth of self-employment and portfolio working change the nature of holidays. Obviously, if you
work for yourself you make your own decisions about such things as holidays and retirement. You have the freedom to go off
when you want but also the responsibility to keep clients on board. Some clients don’t need attention: others might.
There is a further way in which the distinction between work and holiday is blurring which is that the nature of work is itself
changing in a host of different ways. Many jobs, of course, have to be performed at a single location: a factory, a hospital, a
supermarket, pub or wherever. The people who make these places function have to “go to work”. But gradually the
proportion of tasks that can be done wherever there is a broadband connection is rising relative to those that are location
based. Just as most working people in Britain will now become self-employed at some stage of their lives so too will most
people be able to do at least some of their work from home - or, indeed, on holiday. Look at the way in which the recent
London tube strike encouraged many people to work from home that day.
If many people can do at least some work at home, there are two groups where the distinction between work and leisure has
pretty much disappeared. There is the small minority for whom the hobby has become the job. The evidence is anecdotal
but it is clear there are many thousands of people who have managed to turn something they had done for leisure into an
income-producing activity. These include artists and writers and craft-skilled workers. Then there is a rather larger group
of people for whom work has become the hobby. These are people, often retired, who gift their skills to charities and other
voluntary bodies. Is a “holiday”that consists of going on an archaeological dig work or leisure? Of course, it is both. It is
an education too.
There are several growth points in the leisure business. These include activity holidays of all sorts,from hang-gliding to
walking, and from some form of educational experience to volunteering. And for more and more of us, that activity includes
a bit of work.
21.What has enable many people to work almost anywhere they want to?
A.Easy access to broadband.
B.Their close relationship to clients.
C.A common practice labeled as “staycation”.
D.A fuzzy boundary between work and leisure.
22. What does the underlined expression “this transformation” in Para 3 refer to?
A.Submitting a report.
B.Knowing where you are.
C.Polishing a document.
D.Combining work and leisure.
23.According to the writer, which of the following factors plays an important role in changing the nature of holidays?
A.The growth of self-employment.
B.The proportion of tasks people have.
C.Transformation of people’s behaviors.
D.Opportunities people have to work full-time.
24.Which group of people may enjoy the freedom of working at home?
A.Surgeons.
B.Sculptors.
C.Assembly line workers.
D.Grocery store employees.
Which of the following coined words may be used to describe the trend of going for a holiday but blending in some work into
their holiday time?
25.
A.Docation B.Gocation C.Staycation D.Workcation

Passage 2
In our classes, formative assessments are essential in checking student understanding, and are fundamental in the formation
of student content knowledge. Both of us have taught chemistry for many years and over that time we have our subject to
quickly tell whether a student understands key points.
As we move around the room and interact with students, we spot-check their understanding. While students are in the
process of learning, we discover and correct misconceptions. We recognize that as students develop concepts, they require
different levels of support depending on their individual cognitive development as well as the cognitive load of a particular
objective. At times, we provide a student with very structured assistance, but in other situation, we allow students to
struggle. We realize that the learning is not a matter of spoon-feeding the context to the students. It is appropriate for the
teachers to allow a student to wrestle with a difficult concept so that the student learns it deeply. So, some students we leave
alone because we know their learning will be much deeper than if we hold hand throughout, and we proceed to provide
support to students who need it.
The burden of proof in the formative process is placed on the student. We provide students with learning objectives and the
resources necessary to meet those objectives is being learned. For students who can’t prove that they are making progress
toward the objective, we quickly assess their comprehension and created a customized remediation plan on the spot so the
students can go back and learn what they have not yet mastered.
The types of remediation and reteaching vary from student to student. We may ask students to rewatch a video or, in some
case, to watch it for the first time. We give them textbook resources to consult and web pages to visit, or we may simply sit
down with them and work through the concepts that weren’t understood. We used to**to the formative assessment process
as "checking the oil", but education speaker and design thinking *adrocate**Mczntosh corrected us and equated formative
assessment to a GPS. When a driver using a GPS begins to go astray, the GPS “recalculates”the route to help the driver
get back on track.The driver can continue to ignore the GPS and will either eventually listen to the GPS and get back on
track, or drive into a lake. In the classroom, the teacher can be the voice of the GPS redirecting students when they go
astray in their understanding. Students can accept the advice and redirection of the teacher, or they can drive themselves
into the cognitive lake of misconception.
It is the responsibility of the teacher to constantly evaluate each student’s path and provide immediate feedback that will
keep the student traveling safely through the highways of learning. Ultimately the key questions are always “Did you learn
it?” And if you did, can you provide evidence that you have? However, part of good teaching is knowing where the student
is along the journey, not just checking to see if they arrived safely.
26.Why do the authors**formative assessment?
A.To raise students’ awareness of their learning difficulties.
B.To facilitate students’ self-directed independent learning.
C.To provide students timely feedback on their performances.
D.To evaluate students’ leaning process via end-of-term tests.
27.According to the passage, what evidence are the students expected to ****teachers in the formative process?
A.Their ability of making progress towards objectives.
B.Their persistence in getting their work done.
C.Their capacity of making remediation plans.
D.Their tactics of using various resources.
28.Why is formative assessment compared to GPS in this passage?
A.To verify whether people have reached their destination.
B.To detect the location of someone you are looking for.
C.To get people back on track when they get lost .
D.To calculate the distance people have covered.
29.What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph mean?
A.What has been written in the teacher’s evaluation.
B.What has been set as the objective of learning.
C.The answer to the key question.
D.The teacher’s feedback.
30. What*contexts are good teaching according to the last paragraph?
A.Teaching the emphasizes outcome over process.
B.Teaching that provides evidence of students’ learning achievement.
C.Teaching that stresses the importance of process rather than product.
D.Teaching that ensures learning accomplishment of teaching goals.
