BEDGEWOOD - Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district’s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs. Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries. By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks. "Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good," Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher. The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school. They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers. Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia. Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content? Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (营养) guidelines. The whole school has joined in to help. Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.59．What is the text mainly about?A．A best-selling coffee.B．A special educational program.C．Government support for schools.D．A new type of teacher-student relationship.

Passage 1
In recent years,however, society has come to understand the limitations of schools that merelysort and rank students. We have discovered that students in the bottomone-third to one-half of the rank order-plus all who drop out before beingranked-fail to develop the foundational reading, writing, and mathematicalproficiencies needed to survive in, let alone contribute to, an increasinglytechnically complex and ethnically diverse culture. So today, in asking schoolsto leave no child behind, society is asking that educators raise up the bottomof the rank-.order distribution to a specified level of competence. We callthose expectations our?? "academicachievement standards". Every state has them, and, as a matter of publicpolicy, schools are to be held accountable for making sure that all studentsmeet them.
?To be clear, themission of sorting has not been eliminated from the schooling process. For theforeseeable future, students will still be ranked at the end of high school.However, society now dictates that such a celebration of differences m amountlearned must start at a certain minimum level of achievement for all.
??The implications of this change in missionfor the role of assessment are profound. Assessment and grading proceduresdesigned to permit only a few students to succeed (those at the top of therank-order distribution) must now be revised to permit the possibility that allstudents could succeed at some appropriate level. Furthermore, procedures thatpermitted?? (perhaps even encouraged)some students to give up in hopelessness and to stop trying must now be replacedby others that promote hope and continuous effort. In short, the entireemotional environment surrounding the prospect of being evaluated must change,especially for perennial low achievers.
??The students' missionis no longer merely to beat other students in the achievement race. At leastpart of their goal must be to become competent. Teachers must believe that allstudents can achieve a certain level of academic success, must bring all oftheir students to believe this of themselves, must?accommodate?the factthat students learn at different rates by making use of differentiatedinstruction, and must guide all students toward the attainment of standards.
??The driving dynamicforce for students cannot merely be competition for an artificial scarcity ofsuccess. Because all students can and must succeed in meeting standards,cooperation and collaboration must come into play. The driving forces must beconfidence, optimism, and persistence-for all, not just for some. All studentsmust come to believe that they can succeed at learning if they try. They musthave continuous access to evidence of what they believe to be credible academicsuccess, however small. This new understanding has spawned increased interestin formative assessment in recent years.
Which of the following would happen due to the change in mission for the role of assessment?A.Most students would achieve a certain level of academic success.
B.Educators would raise up the bottom of the rank-order distribution.
C.Teachers would help low achievers to beat high achievers successfully.
D.Schools would eliminate sorting and ranking from the schooling process.

问答题Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. High Dropout Rate in US Many young people in the United States never finish high school. Exactly how many dropouts is another issue. Recent studies of dropout rates have had conflicting results. For one thing, schools define and measure their dropout rates differently. Some researchers say about fifteen to twenty parents of public school students do not complete their education. But many other experts and policymakers believe that for the past twenty years, the dropout rate has been around thirty percent. For Latino and black students, the numbers are even higher. Researchers say almost half of them leave school. At the same time, almost half the states let students leave school before the age of eighteen without informing their parents. Finding a good job without a high school education is more and more difficult. A Northeastern University study in 2002 found that almost half of all dropouts aged sixteen to twenty-four did not have a job. The lack of high school education can also lead to other problems. An estimated two-thirds of prisoners in the United States dropped out of high school. Recent studies have shown that the majority of students who drop out do not do it because they are failing. Many are bored with their classes or feel disconnected from their school and teachers. Some students feel that educators place low expectations on them. Teen pregnancies also add to the dropout problem. During the past twenty years, there have been efforts to increase graduation rate through education reforms. Some communities are working on dropout prevention programs. These include alternative high schools to meet special needs. Some programs, for example, provide free transportation and childcare to help young mothers and fathers finish school. Yet special programs can cost a lot, and many school systems have limited budgets. Federal spending on second-chance programs to help students finish school has decreased from the 1970s. This was shown in a report last year from the Educational Testing Service. Experts suggest early warning systems to help identify young schoolchildren at risk of dropping out of high school. They say schools also need to get parents more involved, especially if their children are missing school often. Questions: 1．What is the researchers’ estimated percentage of school dropouts among Latino and black students? 2．What efforts have been made to increase graduation rates? 3．What has been done to help young parents complete their education? 4．Who made a report about the decrease，of Federal spending on second-chance programs to help students finish school? 5．What do experts suggest setting up to help prevent students from dropping out of school?

单选题Passage1In recent years，however，society has come to understand the limitations of schools that merely sort and rank students. We have discovered that students in the bottom one-third to one-half of the rank order-plus all who drop out before being ranked-fail to develop the foundational reading，writing，and mathematical proficiencies needed to survive in，let alone contribute to，an increasingly technically complex and ethnically diverse culture. So today，in asking schools to leave no child behind，society is asking that educators raise up the bottom of the rank-order distribution to a specified level of competence. We call those expectations our "academic achievement standards".Every state has them，and，as a matter of public policy，schools are to be held accountable for making sure that all students meet them.To be clear，the mission of sorting has not been eliminated from the schooling process. Forthe foreseeable future, students will still be ranked at the end of high school. However, society now dictates that such a celebration of differences in amount learned must start at a certain minimum level of achievement for all.The implications of this change in mission for the role of assessment are profound. Assessment and grading procedures designed to permit only a few students to succeed (those at the top of the rank-order distribution) must now be revised to permit the possibility that all students could succeed at some appropriate level. Furthermore, procedures that permitted (perhaps even encouraged) some students to give up in hopelessness and to stop trying must now be replaced by others that promote hope and continuous effort. In short, the entire emotional environment surrounding the prospect of being evaluated must change, especially for perennial low achievers.The students' mission is no longer merely to beat other students in the achievement race. At least part of their goal must be to become competent. Teachers must believe that all students can achieve a certain level of academic success, must bring all of their students to believe this of themselves, must accommodate the fact that students learn at different rates by making use of differentiated instruction, and must guide all students toward the attainment of standards.The driving dynamic force for students cannot merely be competition for an artificial scarcity of success. Because all students can and must succeed in meeting standards, cooperation and collaboration must come into play. The driving forces must be confidence, optimism, and persistence-for all, not just for some. All students must come to believe that they can succeed at learning if they try. They must have continuous access to evidence of what they believe to be credible academic success, however small. This new understanding has spawned increased interest in formative assessment in recent years.Which of the following would happen due to the change in mission for the role of assessment?A
Most students would achieve a certain level of academic success.B
Educators would raise up the bottom of the rank-order distribution.C
Teachers would help low achievers to beat high achievers successfully.D
Schools would eliminate sorting and ranking from the schooling process.
