26、   How do you feel when your teacher asks you to work on a group project with other students? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?

The Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of students' ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people.

This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems. But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who tend（趋向）to have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative（合作的）skills.

“One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades, ”said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association.“Students have a lot of exam pressure and they view school as a place for competition.”

“However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society, ”he added.“Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill.”

Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls tend to be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes toward relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to others' opinions.

PISA also found that the classroom environment tends to influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication, such as class debates, students tend to have better attitudes toward collaborating.

【1】Which of the following is NOT one of the survey's findings?

A.Those who do well on tests are also better at working with others.

B.Collaborative skills are more important than scores for students' futures.

C.Girls are better at working with others than boys.

D.The classroom environment can influence students' ability to work in groups.

【2】What can teachers do to improve their students' ability to work with others?

A.Give students high scores on every test. B.Help students to get used to exam pressure.

C.Make girls work with girls instead of boys. D.Arrange more communicative activities in class.

【3】What's the passage mainly about?

A.How to improve collaborative skills.

B.Who tend to cooperate in working.

C.The result of a survey on students' collaborative ability.

D.The process of a survey on students' collaborative ability.

27、  Most people follow others blindly mainly under the effect of peer(同龄人) pressure. Some people also feel it safe to follow a large number of people. In some rare cases it might be right to follow the crowd (群众), but in most cases this can be one big mistake. Ninety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group. Actually there are reasons why we shouldn’t follow the crowd blindly.  According to a study, people tend to follow the crowd when they aren’t sure about the direction they should take. This means a large number of people could be following others without understanding what’s right and what’s wrong! This attracts more people to follow them and the result is that most people move in a certain direction even if it isn’t right.

A man who wants to be successful always hopes for others’ guidance and he usually follows the same path of most people, but the question this man never asks himself is: are all of those people successful? Of course not! If you want to follow a crowd, then follow a successful one. However, in real life you’ll only find one successful person among hundreds of people, and that’s why following the crowd makes no sense at all.

Most people act without thinking wisely. If you always follow others because

they're greater than you in number, then sooner or later you'll discover that you're

making decisions you might regret later.

However, should we never follow the crowd？No. I'm not trying to say you should never follow the crowd, but instead I'm just asking you to think wisely before you take a decision. If you find others are right, there is no problem in following them, but if you have doubts about the direction they're moving in, don't follow them blindly.

【1】What does the underlined word “rare” mean?

A. A small number of.

B. A large number of.

C. The total number of.

D. The same number of.

【2】A man who wants to succeed should_____________.

A. follow the crowd

B. follow others’ guidance

C. follow a successful person

D. follow the same path of most people

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Ways of finding successful people to follow.

B. Advantages of making a right direction.

C. Examples of not following others blindly.

D. Reasons of not following others balindly.
