    Teaching Math,Teaching Anxiety
    In a new study about the way kids learn math in elementary school,the psychologists at the University of Chicago Sian Beilock and Susan Levine found a surprising relationship between what female teachers think and what female students learn:If a female teacher is uncomfortable with her own math skills,then her female students are more likely to believe that boys are better than girls at math.
    If these girls keep getting math-anxious female teachers in later grades,it may create a snowball effect on their math achievement said Levine. In other words,girls may end up learning math anxiety from their teachers. The study suggests that if these girls grow up believing that boys are better at math than girls are,then these girls may not do as well as they would have if they were more confident.
    Just as students find certain subjects to be difficult,teachers can find certain subjects to be difficult to learn一and teach. The subject of math can be particularly difficult for everyone. Researchers use the word“anxiety”to describe such feelings:anxiety is uneasiness or worry.
    The new study found that when a teacher has anxiety about math,that feeling can influence how her female students feel about math. The study involved 65 girls,52 boys and 17 first-and second-grade teachers in elementary schools in the Midwest. The students took math achievement tests at the beginning and end of the school year,and the researchers compared the scores.
    The researchers also gave the students tests to tell whether the students believed that a math superstar had to be a boy. Then the researchers turned to the teachers:To find out which teachers were anxious about math,the researchers asked the teachers how they felt at times when they came across math,such as when reading a sales receipt. A teacher who got nervous looking at the numbers on a sales receipt,for example,was probably anxious about math.
    Boys,on average,were unaffected by a teacher's anxiety. On average,girls with math-anxious teachers scored lower on the end-of-the-year math tests than other girls in the study did. Plus,on the test showing whether someone thought a math superstar had to be a boy,20 girls showed feeling that boys would be better at math一and all of these girls had been taught by female teachers who had math anxiety.
    “This is an interesting study,but the results need to be interpreted as preliminary and in need of replication with a larger sample,”said David Geary,a psychologist at the University of Missouri in Columbia.

    The sixth paragraph tells us that the research findings______.
    A:prove a strong link between female teachers'math anxiety and their female students' math achievements
    B: show that male students are less likely to be affected by their math anxiety than female students
    C: provide strong evidence that math superstars are more likely to be males than females
    D: discover a strong link between teachers'math anxiety and their students'math achievements

    答案:A
    解析:
    题干意为“依据第一段的内容来看,芝加哥大学的研究结果是什么?”利用题干及备选项中的细节信息词/短语result of the research, University of Chicago, girls, math skills,boys,female teachers' math skills,girl students' math skills作为定位线索,在第一段中寻找到相关句:In a new study about the way kids learn math in elementary school, the psychologists at the University of Chicago Sian Beilock and Susan Levine found a surprising relationship between what female teachers think and what female students learn:If a female teacher is uncomfortable with her own math skills,then her female students are more likely to believe that boys are better than girls at math.第一段是一个独立成段句,该句意为“在最 近一项关于小学生学数学的研究中,芝加哥大学的心理学家Sian Beilock和Susan Levine发现,女教师的想法和女学生的学习之间有着惊人的联系:如果女教师对自己的数学能力感到焦虑,她的女学生很可能会认为男孩学数学比女孩学得更好”。由此可知女教师对自己数学能力的自信会影响女生对自己数学能力的信心,从而最终会影响到女生的数学能力,因此答案为D项“女教师对自己数学能力的自信与女生的数学能力相关”。
    题干意为“第三段暗示了什么?”题干中没有任何细节信息词可以利用,因此 只能利用备选项中的细节信息词/短语math teachers,math learners, subject,difficulty, difficult subject,teachers' confidence, teaching math, students learning math,利用这些线索词 在第三段中找到相关句:Just as students find certain subjects to be difficult, teachers can find certain subjects to be difficult to learn一and teach. The subject of math can be particularly difficult for everyone. Researchers use the word”anxiety“ to describe such feelings:anxiety is uneasiness or worry.第三段第一句提到“如同学生会认为某些科目很难学那样,老师也会认为某些学科既难学也难教”。最后一句提到“这就是研究者所言的‘焦虑’:不自在或担心”。依据这两个句子可以推断出作者想要告诉读者,教师会因为数学这门学科的难度而对教授该课程产生焦虑,也就是不自信,因此答案为B项“像数学这样难学的科目可能会影响教师对教授该学科的自信”。
    题干意为“根据实验来看,当那些老师感到……时可能会对数学产生焦虑 感”。利用题干及备选项中的细节信息词/短语experiment , teachers , numbers of a sales receipt作为定位线索,在第五段中找到相关句:The researchers also gave the students tests to tell whether the students believed that a math superstar had to be a boy. Then the researchers turned to the teachers:To find out which teachers were anxious about math,the researchers asked the teachers how they felt at times when they came across math,such as when reading a sales receipt.A teacher who got nervous looking at the numbers on a sales receipt, for example,was probably anxious about math.定位线索词集中出现在第五段第二句和第三句中,因此重点关注这两个句子。这两个句子提到“然后研究者们对教师进行测试,试图找出哪些教师对数学感到焦虑,研究者们问教师们当遇到数学问题诸如阅读销售清单时的感受,如果一位教师一看到销售清单的数字就感到紧张,那么她可能会对数学存在焦虑”。由此可知选项C项“一看销售清单上的数字就感到紧张”是答案。saving the numbers意为“保存数 字”,filling in the numbers意为“数字排序”,memorizing the numbers意为“数字记忆”。

    Teaching Math,Teaching Anxiety
    In a new study about the way kids learn math in elementary school,the psychologists at the University of Chicago Sian Beilock and Susan Levine found a surprising relationship between what female teachers think and what female students learn:If a female teacher is uncomfortable with her own math skills,then her female students are more likely to believe that boys are better than girls at math.
    If these girls keep getting math-anxious female teachers in later grades,it may create a snowball effect on their math achievement said Levine. In other words,girls may end up learning math anxiety from their teachers. The study suggests that if these girls grow up believing that boys are better at math than girls are,then these girls may not do as well as they would have if they were more confident.
    Just as students find certain subjects to be difficult,teachers can find certain subjects to be difficult to learn一and teach. The subject of math can be particularly difficult for everyone. Researchers use the word“anxiety”to describe such feelings:anxiety is uneasiness or worry.
    The new study found that when a teacher has anxiety about math,that feeling can influence how her female students feel about math. The study involved 65 girls,52 boys and 17 first-and second-grade teachers in elementary schools in the Midwest. The students took math achievement tests at the beginning and end of the school year,and the researchers compared the scores.
    The researchers also gave the students tests to tell whether the students believed that a math superstar had to be a boy. Then the researchers turned to the teachers:To find out which teachers were anxious about math,the researchers asked the teachers how they felt at times when they came across math,such as when reading a sales receipt. A teacher who got nervous looking at the numbers on a sales receipt,for example,was probably anxious about math.
    Boys,on average,were unaffected by a teacher's anxiety. On average,girls with math-anxious teachers scored lower on the end-of-the-year math tests than other girls in the study did. Plus,on the test showing whether someone thought a math superstar had to be a boy,20 girls showed feeling that boys would be better at math一and all of these girls had been taught by female teachers who had math anxiety.
    “This is an interesting study,but the results need to be interpreted as preliminary and in need of replication with a larger sample,”said David Geary,a psychologist at the University of Missouri in Columbia.

    What is implied in the third paragraph?
    A: Math teachers,like math learners,do not like the subject due to its difficulty.
    B: A difficult subject like math may affect teachers'confidence in teaching the subject.
    C: Teachers are more anxious teaching math than their students learning math.
    D: Math is so difficult that no teachers like to teach it.

    答案:B

    Write a compositionof about 200 words on the following topic:
    Teachers′ Salaries Linked With Students′Evaluation


    答案:
    解析:
    Teachers' Salaries Linked With Students' Evaluation Nowadays, people tend to break thetraditional absolute authority of teachers and grant students more freedom, whichmakes the classroom more liberal and democratic. In some pilot programs,teachers' salaries are linked with students' evaluation.
    While this is without doubt a good attempt,it seems to have gone too far. As I see it, students' evaluation is not a reliablecriterion to judge teaching quality and overemphasis on the evaluation maycause difficulties on the teachers' side. To start with, students' evaluationis far less than accurate. Hence linking the evaluation directly with teachers'salaries is not appropriate. Generally speaking, it is very difficult forstudents to evaluate their teachers fairly and objectively. Not beingeducational experts, students' evaluation is solely based on how they feelabout the teachers: Is this teacher friendly to the students? Is he too strictand most importantly, is he likely to give a high score to a particularstudent? Such evaluation is highly subjective, unprofessional and unreasonable.A teacher may receive less salary because he is so responsible for his coursethat he has failed a couple of students in the exam. Apparently, such evaluationsystem is not fair when seen from the aspect of the students' immaturejudgment. Additionally, such system actually does no good to students. Everyteacher has his own teaching plan and teaching style. We cannot expect teachersto make every student pleased and satisfied, because one man's meat can beanother man's poison.
    However, under such evaluation mechanism,students are given too much power which they do not know how to exercisewisely. Students tend to blame the teacher--not themselves or the courses--oncethey feel unhappy about their study. And it is likely that some students willabuse their power to vent off such unhappiness by giving unreasonably lowscores to their teachers in the evaluation. In this case, teachers may losetheir initiatives in teaching, and be forced to please their students, whichwill lead to the deterioration of teaching quality. Therefore, such evaluationsystem is not good for students.
    Giving students more freedom is advisable.But before rushing into implementing new rules, we should always consider thepossible outcomes. Linking teachers' salaries with students' evaluation mayseem a good idea at the first glance, but actually it will affect the teachingquality by giving too, much power to educational amateurs.

    问答题
    The well-known phrase “honoring the teacher and respecting his teaching” has long been a part of Chinese tradition and culture. According to recent Global Teacher Status Index, teachers have the highest social status in China across the world. The following is a new report on people’s view on teaching profession. Read it carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should:  1. summarize briefly the public’s view on teaching profession nowadays;  2. give your comment.  Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.  As Teacher’s Day is approaching, the China Youth Daily received 1,089 reader responses from a nationwide survey. Results indicated that the teaching profession is still a respectable occupation; 91.6 percent voted that they wanted the most outstanding people to be teachers.  “The profession of teacher should be the most respectable occupation in our society. The group should consist of the most outstanding people, or our nation’s development will be affected,” a respondent stated in the poll.  Asked about which kind of teachers are the most outstanding ones, some readers answered: “Not all talented teachers are outstanding in their fields. An excellent teacher ought to be first of all a person of high morals, since teachers educate young people.”  Even more interesting, 76.3 percent of the respondents said that a teacher is someone who influenced them most. But people’s views toward what kind of teachers are good teachers have changed. Another survey this June showed that 31.6 percent of the people admired knowledgeable teachers, 67.6 percent liked teachers who made their classes easy and interesting, and 51.9 percent preferred teachers with a good sense of humor. In short, being knowledgeable is the first and most important aspect of being a teacher, and on this basis, students clearly prefer lively and witty teachers.  The bad news: recent years have seen the rapid reduction of normal universities and colleges. Many have been upgraded to comprehensive universities by name changes and mergers. Education experts worry that this kind of development will harm teacher training because these courses were conducted in those types of universities or colleges.  The good news: the latest government work report states that the country would provide free education for students attending teacher training universities. The policy has become a reality as a total of 11,000 students enrolled in six teacher-training universities bare now begun enjoying free education as of last week. These students began registration respectively at the six universities based in Beijing, Shanghai, Changchun, Wuhan, Xi’an and Chongqing on September 4th.  73 percent of the readers who responded to the survey believed that the free education policy signals that the country is paying greater attention to education and teachers. 60.1 percent of the respondents said that the policy should be popularized and extended to more normal universities and colleges.  Of those polled, the majority (55.6 percent) said that they wanted to be university or college teachers, because of the “high salary and low pressure, good working environment and non-fixed office hours.” “Some teachers even have their own research program.” 29.5 percent wanted to be middle school teachers, 13.4 percent wanted to be kindergarten teachers, and 8.2 percent say they didn’t want to teach at all.  Some respondents said that the salary of rural teachers in central and western areas should be increased. If not, even those students who enjoy free education in normal universities and love the teaching jobs will still face the ultimate question: choose their dream job or find something better to make ends meet?

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    Even Teachers are Humans Needing Material Comfort The article above describes the dilemma of being a teacher in China The teaching profession, according to the survey did by China Youth Daily, is respected by the majority of Chinese people and the social expectation of teachers’ morality and knowledge remains high. Nevertheless, there is a worrisome trend that the number of teacher-training universities is decreasing and teachers’ salary is less than satisfactory. This mismatch is the very obstacle that prevents many young talents from the teaching profession. The fact soon catches the government’s attention and six universities are taking measures to help those potential teachers. From a student’s point of view, I know how important it is to have qualified teachers in my life and what a significant role the government should play in ensuring the teachers’ interests.
    Two pertinent rewards to teachers should be guaranteed: tangible and intangible. We can learn from the news coverage above that teachers are now well-respected and have gained social recognition, which represents the teachers’ high social status. As for the tangible rewards, the situation is far from being contented. Most teachers in rural areas are under-paid and lead a dismal life. They are suffering from poverty, but meanwhile, they are responsible for thousands of students’ morality, knowledge and personality. I strongly believe that teachers deserve favorable housing allowance or an annual increase of bonus.
    In conclusion, since teachers’ social value is widely recognized, they sure deserve better living conditions and higher salary. Without the fear of disturbance in the rear, the aspiring teachers can fully throw themselves into the teaching career.
