In July, China introduced the “double reduction” policy. It hopes to reduce
students' learning burden by reducing homework and after-school classes. One
month has passed since the new term began. How do students feel about this new
policy?
“Our homework is clearly less than before,” said 13-year-old Shen Yuzhe from
Beijing. “We are not encouraged to buy workbooks any more. The exercises are
mainly from the textbook.
According to Shen, teachers now teach at a much slower pace (节奏) . Students
have enough time to process new knowledge. “Our teachers are also giving us morechances to do experiments and learn from real life,” said Shen. “For example, we
went to research earthworms (蚯蚓) in a field during a biology class. This is a much
better way to learn things than just hitting the books.”
For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about
“double reduction” is the increased time in after-school activities. “We can now
spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and
drama. I have joined a group called‘leadership development in business’where I
can learn all kinds of skills beyond academic (学业的) study.”said Zhang.
Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now. But they think it's not
necessarily a good thing. “Exams force me to study harder. Each exam shows my
progress as well as my weak points,” Zhang said.
Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened, self-discipline (自律)
becomes the key. Some students now spend more time having fun when homework is
finished early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others."
he said.
51. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The result of “double reduction” policy. B. The future of “double reduction”
policy.
C. The difficulty of “double reduction” policy. D. The introduction of “double
reduction” policy.
52. What is Shen Yuzhe's idea about the new way of learning?
A. He fails to enjoy it. B. He thinks highly of it.
C. He takes it old-fashioned. D. He has some doubt about it.
53. What can we know about Zhang Hangming?
A. He does well in playing volleyball. B. He wants to join the drama club.
C. He is younger than Shen Yuzhe. D. He is interested in business
54. Which word has the most similar meaning to the underlined word “force”？
A. Teach. B. Help. C. Drive. D. Ask.
55. According to Shen Yuzhe, who may fall behind?
A. Someone who is weak in self-discipline. B. Someone who makes use of his
free time.
C. Someone who finishes homework on time. D. Someone who spends less time
on having fun.
C
When the bell rings at 9 o’clock, He Yue, 18, and a group of other

center and other parts of the project including cultural and creative product

Historians study the past. They care about past events and people who
lived in the past. But historians do not just learn names, dates and places.
Instead, they try to explain past events. They want to know why an event
happened. They want to know why a person acted in a certain way. And they
want to know how one event caused another to happen.
To learn about the past better, historians must study many sources. First,
they use primary sources that were recorded at the same time as an event
happened. They could be journals. They could be books. They could be
newspaper articles or photographs. In modern times, they could even be video
recordings. Historians use primary sources to get the opinions of eyewitnesses
(目击者) to important events. They also use secondary sources. These are
works written by people who did not see an event themselves. Good historians
use both primary and secondary sources in their work.
There are many kinds of historians. Some historians like political history.
Others study military history. Some are centered on economics. And others
prefer social or cultural history. All of them are important. And all of them
help us understand the past better.
61. Which of the following may interest a historian most?A. B. C. D.
62. According to the passage, the primary sources include the following
EXCEPT ________.
A. journals and books B. newspapers articles
C. video recordings D. opinions of eyewitnesses
63. Which of the following is FALSE about sources in Paragraph 2?
A. Primary sources could be different kinds of things.
B. Sources can help historians to understand the past events.
C. Historians need not only primary but also secondary sources.
D. Primary sources are more important than secondary sources.
64. What is the passage mainly about ?
A. What historians do B. How historians learn about
the past.
C. Why historians like to study the past. D. What primary and
secondary sources are
65. We can read the passage in the column(栏目)________ of a magazine.
A. Arts B. Economy C. Culture D. Science
