2、s.The fact is that teachers are being loaded down with ridiculously high expectations. Some studies have shown an association between student performance and teacher effectiveness, depending on how this elusive education quality is measured, but there is also confirming evidence proving the stronger
3、 connection between student performance and a much more important variable: family income. Yes, Im talking about poverty. Sorry to be so gauche, but when teachers point out the relationship between income and achievement, theyre not escaping responsibility, but merely stating an embarrassing truth.A
4、ccording to figures by the College Board, students from families making more than $200,000 score more than 300 points higher on the SAT, on average, than students from families making less than $20,000 a year. There is, in fact, a clear relationship all the way along the scale: Each rise in higher f
5、amily income translated into points on the test. Sean Reardon of Stanford University concluded in a recent study that the achievement gap between high-income and low-income students is actually widening. It is unclear why this might be happening. Maybe it is due to increased income inequality. Maybe
6、 the relationship between income and achievement has somehow become stronger, and maybe there is some other reason.Whatever the cause, our societys answer seems to be: Beat up the teachers. We tend to believe that most of the teachers in low-performing schools are incompetentand, by extension, that
7、most of the teachers in upper-crust schools, where students perform well, are paragons(典范)of virtue. But some of the most dedicated and talented teachers Ive ever met were working in failing rural schools. And yes, in award-winning schools where all the children are above average, Ive met some unima
8、ginatively boring teachers who should never be allowed near a classroom.It is reasonable for teachers to take on responsibilities for their performance, but it is not to hold them accountable for factors that lie far beyond their control. It is fair to insist that teachers approach their jobs with t
9、he assumption that every single child, rich or poor, can succeed. It is not fair to expect teachers to correct all the imbalances that result from growing inequality in our society.1、The text mainly _.Adiscusses the social inequalityBexplains why teachers are treated badlyCargues that it is wrong to
10、 blame teachers for all education problemsDlists reasons beyond teachers control for students poor performance2、The underlined word gauche in para.2 is closest in meaning to _.AseriousBawkwardCconfidentDproud3、According to the text, which one of the following is strongly related with student perform
11、ance?ATeacher effectiveness.BParental involvement.CSchool ranking.DFamily income.4、Which of the following would the author most probably agree with?AWhether all teachers are competent in one school has nothing to do with its overall student performance.BNone of the students from poor family perform
12、well in the school.CMost of the teachers in low-performing schools are lacking in competence.DParents should work hard to earn money to ensure their childrens performance in the school.A new heat-detecting camera can catch a liar in the actat least 75% of the time, according to a small scientific st
13、udy recently. If additional tests confirm its ability, the lie-detector camera might one day be used by airport security to identify terrorists before they get on an airplane, says researcher James Levine of the Mayo Clinic.But it is questioned whether the camera would ever be reliable enough to be
14、used on a large scale, or whether it could spot someone who plans to commit a crime. Levine and his colleagues enlisted 20 volunteers to help test the camera, which records the heat patterns that are created when blood rushes to the human face. The researchers told eight of them to commit a fake cri
15、me. They were told to stab a model, rob it of $20, then lie about the rime. The remaining 12 people in the study knew nothing about the crime.The researchers took all 20 people into an interrogation room(审讯室). They asked them whether they had stolen $20 and then recorded their answers with a standar
16、d polygraph(测谎仪) test and the new camera. The camera caught six out of eight liars as they were lyingthe same lie-detecting ability as the polygraph test. The camera also correctly identified 11 of the 12 people who were telling the trutha slightly better rate than the polygraph. The study is so sma
17、ll that it cant be used as proof of the cameras ability to catch a thief or a liar, Levine says. Still, he is hopeful that the camera is recording a subtle flushing of the face that may automatically occur when someone lies.That flushing may not be caught by the naked eye, but the camera shows a bri
18、ght red-orange-yellow zone that represents blood rushing to the eyes. People who lie are afraid of getting caught. That fear triggers a primitive response to run away. Blood goes to the eyes so that the liar can more efficiently map out an escape route.Levine claims even if the camera works as well
19、as it did in this study, it could mean a thousand passengers a day would get pulled aside by security, causing lots of missed flights and irate passengers if it mistakenly labeled, thus it may take time before the camera would be ready for a test at a large airport.5、What does the lie-detector camer
20、a detect during the experiment?AThe changes in the testees emotions.BThe heat patterns in the testees faces.CThe blood pressure of the testees.DThe testees heartbeat.6、Which is the finding about the lie-detector camera by experiment?AIts lie-detecting ability is somewhat superior to a standard polyg
21、raph.BIt can accurately detect who is telling lies.CThe camera can clearly distinguish an honest person from a liar.DA standard polygraph cant tell who is telling the truth.7、What can be inferred from the passage?AThe new lie-detector camera still calls for further testing for airport application.BT
22、he liar cant manage to escape if the blood goes to his eyes.CWe can tell blood rushing from some color indicator from ones face.DThe lie-detector camera is designed for airport security.Valentines Day had arrived and like other day of the year, I was very busy.My romantic husband, Roy, planned a dat

26、 home, honey, he said.Thats OK, Becky replied. I understand.The entire evening was bittersweet. I couldnt help being concerned about the disappointment in Beckys eyes.
