Passage 1
FROM James Moriarty to Ernst StavroBlofeld, the idea of the evil genius has been a staple of storytelling. But is it true? Or, to put the matter less starkly, is there a connection between creativity and dishonesty in real people who are not bent on world domination, as well as in fictional supervillains? Writing in Psychological Science, Francesca Gino of Harvard University and Scott Wiltermuth of the University of Southern California suggest that there is—and that cheating actually increases creativity. Dr Gino and DrWiltermuth tested the honesty of 153 volunteers with a task that involved adding up numbers for a cash reward, which was presented in a way that seemed to them to allow them to cheat undetected (though the researchers knew when they did). This was sandwiched between two tests forcreativity, one of which was to work out how to fix a candle to a cardboard wall with a box of drawing pins*, and the other a word-association test. This combination showed not only that creative people cheat more, but also that cheating seems to encourage creativity—for those who cheated in the adding-up test were even better at word association than their candle-test results predicted.
That result was confirmed by a second set of experiments, in which some people were given many opportunities to cheat and others few. The crucial predictor of creativity, the researchers confirmed, was the actual amount of cheating, not any propensity to cheat. A third experiment tested the idea that this is because both creativity and dishonesty require, as it were, a flexible attitude to rules. In this experiment volunteers were asked about their attitude to bossy signs, such as “no cycling” and “no diving” notices, after being allowed to cheat (again, in a way transparent to the experimenters) on a coin-tossing test. Cheats, it turned out, were less constrained to obey such signs. It is, it goes without saying, a long way from such acts of petty defiance to building a lair inside an extinct volcano and threatening Washington from it—or even to non-fictional acts of serious crime. But some sort of link exists, so this research does indeed suggest that Arthur Conan Doyle and Ian Fleming were on to something.

23.Which of the following describes the sequence of Dr. Wiltermuth’s research? A candle test, word assoviation test, adding-up test B candle test, word association test, adding-up test C adding-up test, candle test, word association test D adding-up test, word association test, candle test
24.What does the underlined words “ the other” in paragraph 2 refer to ? A The trick B The test C The reward D The combination

简答题:
31.请说明精听与泛听的区别,并分别简述教师应该如何指导学生进行精听与泛听的训练。
[答案]精听与泛听的区别;
精听(Careful listening),是通过听课文,再把文章的内容感知一遍同时可以加深对文章细节内容的一个深入了解。并且可以通过一些训练来检验听的效果(Filling in Blanks/TrueorFalse/Questions/Forms)。
泛听(Extensivelistening),是让学生初步听材料并回答问题,让学生初步了解文章的主旨大意(main idea)和基本信息(basic information),例如:时间、地点、原因、方式等。
教师在指导学生进行精听训练时,要与语音、语法和词汇的学习结合,可以“听”“读”“写”的技能训练相结合,还可以与社会、文化背景知识的学习相结合。在进行精听训练时,教师可以指导学生在反复多听的基础上完成一些辨音、填充缺失内容、听写的练习,之后还可以进行一些拓展练习,如总结听力材料中出现的语音现象、跟读或朗读内容、分析听力材料的文本结构和语言特点等。
教师在指导学生进行泛听训练时,一定要严格要求学生,应该一气呵成地只听一遍就完成听力练习,中间不能停顿或重复。在进行泛听训练中可以使用的听力训练包括:测试对听力内容是否理解的选择题、判断题,测试是否抓住重点词句的填空题,以及用自己的语言写出或口述出听到的主要内容的练习等,完成这些练习后,教师要注意和学生及时总结,或与同学共同讨论泛听的策略,如:如何根据上下文判断生词的含义,如何预测下文等。
32.教学情境分析题
王老师是七年级的英语老师,在一次英语课上,他首先讲解了like与dilike的区别,然后要求学生做一项配对活动,活动结束后,他宣布做练习四,整个活动过程中,王老师始终在台上,活动过程如下图。
(1)该教师在每个活动阶段分别存在什么问题?(15分)
(2)针对每个阶段中存在的问题提出相应的建议(15分)
[答案]
(1)该教师在每个活动阶段存在的问题有:
活动开始前,该教师下发任务不是很明确,没有限定活动时间,学生在练习的过程中可能会没有计划,课堂会比较散漫;另外,教师在活动前应该提供一个示范,使学生在活动练习的过程中更明确。 活动开始中,该教师不应该一直站在讲台上,应该参与到学生的活动中去,体现教师参与者、指导者、更正者、控制者等的角色。活动结束后,该教师不应该直接宣布做训练四,应该要求学生对前面的配对活动作出反馈,并给予适当的反馈与鼓励。
(2)每个阶段的建议:
活动开始前,教师应该合理选择任务的难度,使学生明确任务的目标,尤其是任务的目的、完成的过程以及对于结果的要求,都要交代的清清楚楚,使每个学生都有事情干。同时要给予学生充分的活动准备时间,提供必要的语言资源,给学生提供一些可供选择的完成思路。
活动开始中,教师要充分发挥自己的作用,摆正自己的位置,此时教师不仅是平时课堂的指导者、更正者、控制者,同时还是讨论组中的一员。教师应该走到学生中去参与讨论。同时,还要注意防止学生失控,如说一些与主题无关的事甚至出现吵闹的现象。 活动结束后,教师要注意引导学生进行反馈,让学生独立、完整的反馈结果,提升语言的准确度和流利度。对于学生在活动中出现的问题,要及时反馈,引导学生更正;对于学生表现优秀的地方,要及时给予鼓励,加强学生的自信心,增强英语学习的兴趣和合作意识。 33.
