Deborah Kenny's "Born to Rise" Tells Story of Harlem Village Academies

A) Deborah Kenny, CEO of the Harlem Village Academies, is frustrated with the nation's current education system. Unlike most, though, she decided to do something about it. Part declaration part record, her book Born to Rise writes down her journey toward creating and running her own system of progressive charter schools in Harlem in New York City.

What is your educational philosophy?

B) We want our students to receive the same high-quality education as students who are privileged to attend the best private schools in the country. Personally, I believe a progressive education is superior as long as it's delivered by really smart, talented teachers who know how to execute well. It's a sophisticated approach that really only works well in the hands of a  really sophisticated educator. We're dealing with a little bit of a challenge because students enter this school from the regular public system. And when they enter in fifth grade, they're not yet well-trained in the basics reading, writing, and math--which means that we have to catch them up on basic math skills, on the 'basics of writing. And many of them come in at a kindergarten, first, second-grade level in reading. So we have to accelerate their mastery of the basics, but we reject the idea that if you do that you can't teach that at a high level. We push ourselves constantly to think about how we can make sure that our students will catch up while we teach at the highest possible level. It means asking difficult, delicate questions, not accepting an answer that is not backed up by evidence, the kinds of things that you would expect to see in the best private schools. We aim for a high level in rich discussions where the students are asked to analyze a challenging text and where the teacher does not accept just any answer simply because the student is behaving. What makes the Harlem Village Academies different?

C) First of all, I have to say what we have in common with other charter schools because we have learned so much from them: creating an expectation that all students will attend college, naming classrooms after colleges, the longer school day, the longer school year. I feel it's important to give credit where credit is due because I learned from them. In those early years when I opened the school, most of these other schools bad been around for seven years, ten years, some of them even longer.

D ) As far as what makes us different, I'll tell you what the teachers say: teachers tell us that the level of professionalism and passion for teaching at a high level and teaching above the test, not to the test, and working in an environment, where everybody is trusted to do their job and continually learning--there's this incredible culture of learning. There's this incredible workplace culture where the adults are continually becoming better and learning more about how to become a better lead her. The teachers get to make all of the decisions 'about their own professional development rather than being enforced to at tend the training. They are treated like professional-grade' doctors and lawyers at the. Highest level. They actually make the decisions not only about what books to use and what teaehing methed, but even about what their own professional development Ioukslike.There's a very clear set of standards far what the students need to know and be "able to do at the end of each year and quarter, and we hold people accountable for that end goal. But we give them complete freedom to decide how they're going to achieve it, which is how all professionals are treated. Unfortunately, it's not how most teachers are treated inthis country. Most teachers are treated like factory workers, where there's a hig set ofrules on how they have to do everything.

What does the curriculum look like at Harlem Village Academy schools?

E) It looks like a classic liberal-arts curriculum, where math, reading, and writing are not the only subjects taught. Even if the state focuses its testing on those things, we do not let the state dictate our curriculum. We are interested in a rich curriculum that includes art and music and seience and social studies and a wide variety of electives, and character education is integrated throughout.

How do you address the criticisms people have regarding charter schools?

F) I'd say that the .main criticisms are stemming from the fact that in a charter system the teachers are not unionized, and they're treated as professionals instead of as manual laborers. The charter movement is challenging the current situation, it's eoming along and saying we used to completely change the underlying premiere ( 前提) of how we go about public education. Parents should be able to choose the scherzi. We should give power to all parents, regardless of socioeonomie level, to choose where they send their child, and that creates market competition: if you have an amazing school with caring teachers and great results, parents are going to ~ant to choose that school. The charter movement is putting the needs of children first anti is holding teachers accountable. It ehalleuges the notion of tenure (终身教职), where there's no accountability at all.

What's next for you and the Harlem Village Academies?

G) We are going to triple (增至三倍) in size in the next twn years. We will have a full K -12 system. We're starting two new elementary schools, we will be serving 2,000 children, but we are not eager to grow super-big. We want to use the platform of what we' re learned and the results that we've produced--that ant teachers have produced--to have an ational influence on policy and on teaching methods. The laws that govern how school srun constrain the ability of the printcipal to run the school well. They're not allowed to build a team. And building a team where teachers are trusted, happy and cooperative is really the foundation for an excellent school. So we want to find a way to get our message out nationally and continue to be part of the movement.

36. In the Harlem Village Academies. teachers can decide themselves how they are going to achieve the teaching objectives.

37. The charter movement challenges the tenure system in making children's needs apriority and holding, teachers responsible.

38  The Harlem Village Academies will be able to enroll 2,000 ehildren in the next twoyears

39. Deborah Kenny admits that she learns a lot from other charter schools.

40. The curriculum at Harlem Village Academies not only includes the subjects frequentlytested.

41. The Harlem Village Academies are eager to exert a national influence on policy and teaching methods.

42. Students entering the Harlem Village Academies are from the regular public system.

43. Deborah Kenny decides to create and run the Harlem Village Academies because sheis disappointed about the current education system.

44. Charter schools are mainly criticized for treating the teachers as professionals.

45. One of the challenges facing the Harlern Village Academies is how to accelerate students' mastery of the basics.

Section C

Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions orunfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C andD . You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on AnswerSheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.

Sign has become a scientific hot button.Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand.They offer a new way to probe how the brain generates and understands language,and throw new light on an old scientific controversy:whether language,complete with grammar,is something that we are born With,or whether it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington,D. C.,the world‘s only liberal arts university for deaf people.

When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English,the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd: among themselves,students signed differently from his classroom teacher.

Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code,each movement of the hands representing a word in English.At the time,American Sign Language (ASL) was thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语)。But Stokoe believed the “hand talk”his students used looked richer.He wondered:Might deaf people actually:have a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth?It was 1955,wheneven deaf people dismissed their signing as“substandard”。 Stokoe‘s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说)。

It is 37 years later.Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English,French and Japanese.They assumed language must be based on speech,the modulation (调节)of sound.But sign language is based on the movement of hands,the modulation of space.“What I said ”Stokoe explains “is that language is not mouth stuff—it‘s brain stuff.”

Choose correct answers to the question:

46.The study of sign language is thought to be ________.

A.a new way to look at the learning of language

B.a challenge to traditional, views on the nature of language

C.an approach: to simplifying the grammatical structure of a language

D.an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language

47.The present growing interest in sign language was stimulated by _______.

A.a famous scholar in the study of the human brain

B.a leading specialist in the study of liberal arts

C.an English teacher in a university for the deaf

D.some senior experts in American Sign Language

48.According to Stokoe, sign language is ________.

A.a Substandard language

B.a genuine language

C.an artificial language

D.an international language

49.Most educators objected to Stokoe‘s idea because they thought ________.

A.sign language was not extensively used even by deaf people

B.sign language was too artificial to be widely accepted

C.a language should be easy to use and understand

D.a language could only exist in the form of speech sounds

50.Stokoe‘s argument is based on his belief that ________.

A.sign language is as efficient as any other language

B.sign language is derived from natural language

C.language is a system of meaningful codes

D.language is a product of the brain

Passage Two

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality,but when it comes to mycollege education I am an idealist and a fool.In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and,of course,any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department,famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that‘s not what I did.

I chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts(文科)university that doesn‘t even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously,this was not a practical choice;I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career.I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren’t studying science orengineering. My parents,teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice.They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years,and I believed them.

I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didn‘t care if you have values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer:technical genius and sensitive humanist(人文学者)all in one.

Now I‘m not so sure.Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality,as all noble ideals eventually do.After three years of struggling to balance math,physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses,I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile(协调) engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.

The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply don‘t mix as easily as I assumed in high school.Individually they shape a person in very different ways;together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.

Choose correct answers to the question:

51.The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he ________.

A.intended to be a combination of engineer and humanist

B.wanted to be an example of practicality and rationality

C.intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals

D.wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal-arts courses in college

52.According to the author,by interacting with people who study liberal arts, engineering students can ________.

A.broaden their horizons

B.become noble idealists

C.receive guidance in their careers

D.balance engineering and the liberal arts

53.In the eyes of the author,a successful engineering student is expected ________.

A.to be imaginative with a value system to guide him

B.to be a technical genius with a wide vision

C.to have an excellent academic record

D.to be wise and mature

54.The author‘s experience shows that he was ________.

A.creative

B.irrational

C.ambitious

D.Unrealistic

55.The word“they”in“together they threaten to confuse.”(Line 3,Para. 5) refers to ________.

A.practicality and rationality

B.engineering and the liberal arts

C.reality and noble ideals

D.flexibility and a value system

写作指导

这是一篇关于广告的议论文,考生应根据题目所给出的结构进行展开,千万不可因为熟悉“广告”这一题材就浮想联翩,下笔千言却离题万里。首先弄 清楚每一段的内容及各段之间有何联系,不要在写完了第一段之后,发现要写的第二段的内容已在前一段写过了,所以写之前先构思,找个腹稿,或在稿纸上写上要点。

在范文中,第一段指出广告的目的有的是让消费者知道其产品和服务,但大多数广告是为 了说服人们买这而不是买那。第二段指出广告是推销产品的手段,做广告让消费者清楚某种品牌比其他的更有优势是十分必要的。即做广告的必要性及原因,最后一段写厂商做广告的起初原因是因为他们发现花一笔钱对其产品做广告总的来说比降价出售更有利。

Sample Writing

Advertising

A certain amount of advertising is of an informative kind, the aim simply being to let consumers know what goods and services are available—“consumer education” as it is sometimes called. Most advertising, however, is of a persuasive or competitive kind, the aim of which is to persuade people to buy one thing rather than something else.

Advertising is a selling cost particularly associated with imperfect competition. Advertising is a way of marketing goods. In the sale of branded goods, advertising is essential in order to try to impress on consumers that one maker's brand is superior to all others, although in fact the only difference between brands may sometimes be in their trade marks and labels.

Any producer with some degree of monopoly, however slight, will generally find it more advantageous to advertise his products widely and at considerable expense rather than cut his prices.

46.[B] 从文章第3句“手语提供了一种新方法,用以探索大脑如何产生和理解语言,并为一个长期以来的科学争端——语言(连同语法)究竟是我们与生俱来的,还是一种我们后天学会的行为——提出了新的解释”可以看出,这是对语言的性质的传统观点的挑战,即B .A错在learning,文章并不是在讨论语言的学习,而是语言的产生和理解;C为简单原词干扰D;中的an attempt to clarify misunderstanding是对throw new light on an old scientific controversy的曲解,因为controversy不等于misunderstanding.另外,第1段最后一句中的rebel“反叛”一词也与B中的“挑战”一致。

47.[C] 根据第1段最后一句可知,选C.题干中的was stimulated相当于原文中的has roots in.

48.[B] 根据第3段第2—4句以及最后一段第3句,可知B为答案。前者提出猜想(Might deaf people actually have a genuine language?),后者含有一个同位语 his idea that signed languages are natural languages.

49.[D] 根据最后一段第4句,可知D正确。D中的only exist in the form of speech sounds是对原文中be based on speech的同义表达。

50.[D] 根据文章最后一句,可知D正确。D中的a product of the brain是对原文中brain stuff的同义表达。B中的derived from错误,因为Stokoe认为sign language就是一种natural language.

1.第一句话的汉语由两个分句组成,句子较长,在译成英文时,可把它拆分成两句。“也指发源于中国的烹饪方式”可单独译成一句also refers to cooking styles originating fromChina,这样可以更好的体现两句的并列关系。

2.第二句话由三个分句组成。翻译时将“中国菜流派众多”译为主句,“历史悠久”用with a history of...来表达,“主要代表菜系有…”则用非限制性定语从句表示。这样可以使译文结构紧凑,句式多样。

3.第三句中的“风格各异”可以用be distinctive from表达,比用have different styles更地道。

4.在“中国菜强调色、香、味俱佳”中,“色、香、味俱佳”的英文翻译并没有逐字的对应,因而增译了combination,把汉语中暗含的意思完整地表达出来。
