A few weeks ago, I went into my son Chase’s class for tutoring. Afterward, Chase’s teacher and I sat for a few minutes and talked about shaping little hearts to become contributors to a larger community.
Then she told me this.
Every Friday afternoon, she asks her students to write down the names of four children with whom they’d like to sit the following week. The children know these requests may or may not be honored. She also asks the students to nominate（提名）one student who they believe has been an outstanding classroom citizen that week. All votes are privately submitted to her.
Then after the students go home, she takes out those slips, places them in front of her and studies them. She is looking for children struggling to connect with others. She’s identifying the little ones who are falling through the cracks of the class’s social life. She is discovering whose gifts are going unnoticed by their peers.
As Chase’s teacher explained this simple, creative idea, I stared at her with my mouth hanging open. “How long have you been using this system?” I said. Ever since 1999, she said.
This brilliant woman watched Columbine in 1999 knowing that all violence begins with disconnection. All outward violence begins as inner loneliness. Children who aren’t being noticed may eventually result in being noticed by any means necessary.
So she decided to start fighting violence early and often in the world within her reach. What Chase’s teacher is doing when she sits in her empty classroom studying those lists written with shaky 11-year-old hands is saving lives. I am convinced of it.
What this mathematician has learned while using this system is something she really already knew: that everything—even love, even belonging—has a pattern to it. She finds the patterns, and through those lists she breaks the codes of disconnection. Then she gets lonely kids the help they need.
It’s math to her. Yet all is love—even math.
24. What are students required to do every Friday afternoon?
A. Name 4 students to be honored. B. Hand in a name list to the teacher.
C. Choose a student to sit with. D. Tell the teacher a secret.
25. Why does the teacher ask her students to do so?
A. To discover potential risks. B. To figure out new seating.
C. To research on her students’ talents. D. To spot kids disconnected with others.
26. What do we know about Chase’s teacher?
A. Columbine led her to fight violence. B. Her students have difficulty in writing.
C. She established the system in 1999. D. She cares about saving lives.
27. What message does the text convey?
A. Math patterns are important. B. Students suffer a lot in social life.
C. Love is the key to going with loneliness. D. Breaking disconnection helps prevent violence.
C
Science textbooks around the world have become suddenly out of date. Four new chemical elements have been added to the periodic table. A big decision now lies ahead—elements（元素）113,115,117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.
New elements can be named after a mythical concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property or a scientist. The names have to be unique and maintain “historical and chemical consistency”. This means a lot of “-iums”. “They’re Latinising the name,” explains chemist Andrea Sella. “The most recent tradition is to name them after places or people.” The places chosen tend to be where the element was discovered or first produced.
No one has yet named an element after themselves but many elements are named in honour of important scientists. Albert Einstein was given einsteinium. This can also be a way of righting the wrongs of the past. “Lise Meitner was really the chemist who spotted nuclear fission but she was never really recognized for it because she was Jewish and a woman,” says Sella. “Giving an element a name that reminds us of her is greatly important.”
The naming process isn’t quick. The scientists who discovered them will start things off by suggesting a name. But it will be down to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) to approve it. A special division of the US-based group has to accept the suggestion. Then there is a public review period of five months before the IUPAC gets the final approval. Once it’s ready, the name is announced in the scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.
Naming an element is not just about functionality. Names are always important.
28. What is the function of Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To present a finding.
C. To point out a problem. D. To call for a decision.
29. An element was named after Lise Meitner to ________.
A. praise her for her discovery B. remind us of her reputation
C. correct the mistakes of the past D. fight against racial discrimination
30. Who has the final say in the naming process of an element?
A. The scientist who discovered them.
B. The special division of US-based group.
C. The scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.
D. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How elements get their names.
B. Why science textbooks are out of date.
C. How new elements are discovered.
D. How functional naming an element is.
D
In the first quarter of 2018, China's box office overtook North America for the first time to become the biggest in the world. What do foreigners think of Chinese films?
Aistrodositu (Germany)
The marketing budget of US movies is likely higher than the budget of most non-US movies. English is still the lingua franca.
Information about US or British movies is readily available through sources like the British Film Institute's Sight and Sound. I find it hard to find information about Chinese movies and buy them, at least with English subtitles（字幕）. Some improvements could be: more second language speakers of Chinese, raised visibility for Chinese movies through an English publication similar to Sight and Sound that separates the wheat from the chaff, and making movies available via streaming platforms more aggressively.
Tomahawk (US)
I live in the United States and absolutely love watching Chinese actors and actresses in movies. I think the main problem we have here in the USA is that most of us here have not been trained enough in our lives to become bilingual. Or if we are, it is more common in our public school system to learn French or Spanish as a second language. Unfortunately Mandarin or Cantonese was never an option. China now has a great chance to share with the world the beauty of its people and its culture. I hope Chinese people continue to prosper, so we can all be blessed to see actors like Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li grace movie screens here in America. In the meantime, I will continue to watch with subtitles.
Slaphead (UK)
I like Chinese films, but the problem is they are often not available in the UK, either on disk or via streaming services. I only get to see them on flights to Asia. Examples like River Road and To the Fore don't seem to be picked up by distributors. The distributors seem to take the easy and lazy path of just promoting martial arts films which can often be repetitive.
That said, there are a lot of Chinese movies I would not consider my cup of tea: too much magic, wuxia, etc. But that's up to the audience to decide. I don't know enough Chinese movies to say that on average their quality is much worse than standard UK fee. But you don't know what you don't know.
32. What does the underlined word “the lingua franca” mean?
A. The key factor. B. The common language.
C. The basic element. D. The major barrier.
33. What can we know from Tomahawk’s words?
A. He doesn’t like to learn French or Spanish.
B. Chinese movies are shot in an elegant way.
C. He never watches Chinese movies with subtitles.
D. Movies help promote the beauty of Chinese culture.
34. Aistrodositu shares the same opinion with Tomahawk about ______.
A. encouraging taking Chinese as a second language
B. increasing exposure to Chinese movies
C. the use of streaming platform service
D. improvements on subtitles
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Chinese movies are well worth the money.
B. More options of movies should be offered to the audience.
C. Movies with magical effects appeal to the UK viewers.
D. British people prefer to watch movies while drinking tea.
第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Forty years ago, when Marilyn Loden made a speech at the 1978 Women’s Exposition, she didn’t know that a phrase she came up with would still be alive after all these years. “It seemed to me there was an invisible barrier to advancement that people didn’t recognize.” That barrier, according to her, could all be boiled down to one phrase – “glass ceiling”.
36 We’ve seen women achieving bigger and bigger things in cinema, education, politics and even business. But sadly, there’s one field that’s still run mainly by men: science.
That’s why it was inspiring when Zhang Miman was given a L’Oreal-UNESCO For Women in Science award on March 22. 37 She is the fifth Chinese female scientist to receive this award in its 20-year history of celebrating the achievements of women around the world.
According to China Daily, the number of women working in science around the world has increased by 12 percent in the past 20 years. 38 Indeed, less than 30 percent of researchers are women, and only 3 percent of Nobel prizes for science have been awarded to women.
May 24 marks the 40th anniversary of the phrase “glass ceiling”. As Hillary Clinton said in 2008 after she failed her first presidential bid, “we weren’t able to break that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time. 39 And the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time.” 40
A. But even so, the glass ceiling is still there.
B. How hard it was for women to climb the career ladder.
C. But thanks to you, it’s got about 18 million cracks in it.
D. Even though the ceiling is still there, things are changing.
E. Since then, there have been major advances in gender equality.
F. Zhang was honored for the discoveries on the process of human evolution.
G. And with Zhang winning her award, one more crack has been added to the ceiling.

If you are able to come with us, please let us know and we’ll wa
it for you at the school gate at 9 in the morning.
Looking forward to your reply.
