　　(2017·临沂模拟)

　　It is often said that you cannot “teach an old dog new tricks”, but three New Zealand dogs have decided to prove otherwise by learning a skill—driving a car!

　　What’s even more impressive is that the three who have become skilled in just eight weeks are not special dogs that belong to some rich owners, but abandoned ones at New Zealand’s SPCA.

　　To get their training started, 10-month-old Porter, 18-month-old Monty and one-year-old Ginny were selected from a pool of seven potential candidates and moved to Animal Q, a talent agency that teaches animals tricks for movies and television shows.

　　The driving classes began with teaching the dogs some basic driving techniques like turning the steering wheels(方向盘)and applying the brakes. After that the dogs practiced everything they had learnt behind the wheels of a motorized(装上发动机的)car. Then finally, it was time for the big test-driving a real car!

　　Human cars are not really built for four-legged animals, so the car they drove was adjusted so that the dogs could sit comfortably and easily reach the steering wheel with their paws.

　　Though they all seemed to do very well, the real test came on Monday night when Monty, the best driver of the three, showed his great driving skill on live television.

　　Why would the SPCA go through so much trouble to highlight the skills of homeless dogs? The reason is to show that adopting a dog from a shelter does not mean owners are getting a pet that is worse than one purchased from a keeper. The CEO of the SPCA is hoping that this unusual event will be enough to convince the residents of New Zealand to consider them, when searching for a pet.

　　We surely hope so, meanwhile we are almost certain that these three pioneers have at least landed their names in the Guinness World Records, creating a category that probably does not even exist today!

　　1. Who do the three dogs belong to?

　　A. Some rich owners.

　　B. Animal Q.

　　C. A shelter.

　　D. A zoo.

　　2. The car the dogs drove was adjusted.

　　A. because it was too big for the dogs to drive

　　B. because it had no steering wheels and brakes

　　C. to ensure the dogs could sit comfortably and drive easily

　　D. to motorize the car and turn it to be a real one

　　3. Why does the SPCA decide to teach the three dogs to learn to drive a car?

　　A. To prove old dogs can learn new tricks.

　　B. To teach them performing tricks for movies and television shows.

　　C. To provide amusing performances for homeless children.

　　D. To encourage people to adopt the abandoned dogs.

　　4. What can we learn from the passage?

　　A. A new Guinness category for driving dogs will probably be created.

　　B. Abandoned dogs are much cleverer than house-kept ones.

　　C. All the dogs at New Zealand’s SPCA will soon be adopted.

　　D. New Zealand has the most homeless dogs among all countries.

　　B

　　(2017·启东三模)

　　On a wet Wednesday evening in Seoul, six government employees gathered at the office to prepare for a late-night patrol(巡逻). The mission is to find children who are studying after 10 p. m. and stop them.

　　In South Korea, it has come to this. To reduce the country’s addiction to private, after-hours tutoring academies(called hagwons), the authorities have begun enforcing a curfew(宵禁令)—even rewarding citizens for turning in violators.

　　But cramming(临时死记硬背)is deeply anchored in Asia, where top grades have long been prized as essential for professional success. Before toothbrushes or printing presses, there were civil service exams that could make or break you. Chinese families have been hiring test preparation tutors since the 7th century. Nowadays South Korea has taken this competition to new extremes. In 2010, 74% of all students engaged in some kind of private after-school instruction, sometimes called shadow education, at an average cost of KRW 2, 600 per student for a year. There are more private instructors in South Korea than school teachers, and the most popular of them make millions of dollars a year from online and in-person classes. When Singapore’s Education Minister was asked last year about his nation’s reliance on private tutoring, he found one reason for hope, “We are not as bad as the Koreas. ”

　　In Seoul, legions of students who failed to get into top universities spend the entire year after high school attending hagwons to improve their scores on university admission tests. And they must compete even to do this. At the prestigious Daesung Institute, admission is based on students’ test scores. Only 14% of applicants are accepted. After a year of 14-hour days, about 70% gain entry to one of the nation’s top three universities.

　　South Koreans are not alone in their discontent. Across Asia, reformers are pushing to make schools more “American”—even as some U. S. reformers make their own schools more “Asian”. In China, universities have begun fashioning new entry tests to target students with talents beyond book learning. And Taiwanese officials recently announced that kids will no longer have to take high-stress exams to get into high school. In South Korea, the apogee of extreme education, gets its reforms right, it could be a model for other societies.

　　The problem is not that South Korea kids aren’t learning enough or working hard enough, but that they aren’t working smart. When I visited some schools, I saw classrooms in which a third of the students slept while the teacher continued lecturing, seemingly undisturbed.

　　The government has repeatedly tried to humanize the education system, but after each attempt, the hagwons come back stronger. But this time, its reforms are targeting not just the dysfunctional symptom but also the causes. It is working to improve normal public schools by putting teachers and principals through rigorous(严格的)evaluations—which include opinion surveys by students, parents and peer teachers—and requiring additional training for low-scoring teachers. At the same time, the government hopes to reduce the pressure on students. Admissions tests for high schools have been abolished. Middle schoolers are now judged on the basis of their regular grades and an interview. And 500 admissions officers have been appointed to the country’s universities, to judge applicants not only on their test scores and grades but also other abilities.

　　5. The six government employees were asked to　.

　　A. arrest the students who work late at night

　　B. reward citizens who turn in violators

　　C. conduct a survey among students

　　D. prevent students from studying too late

　　6. In Paragraph 3 toothbrushes and printing presses are mentioned in order to　.

　　A. tell us that they were invented in Asia

　　B. show that hagwons play an important role in people’s daily life

　　C. show that private tutoring has a long history

　　D. tell us that civil service exams are of equal importance as them

　　7. What can be concluded from the passage?

　　A. Hagwons are the source of South Korea’s educational problem.

　　B. Students in South Korea don’t learn efficiently.

　　C. It is the teachers and headmasters who are to blame for the educational problem.

　　D. Private tutoring is not common in Singapore.

　　8. The main point of the last paragraph is that　.

　　A. it is very difficult to get rid of hagwons

　　B. the causes of hagwons have been found

　　C. teachers will have a hard time because of the reforms

　　D. the government is determined to reform the present education system
