Many teachers believe frequent quizzes(小测验) help students better grasp classrm material. Crede, an assciate prfessr f psychlgy, was skeptical that smething as simple as a quiz culd psitively affect students’ academic perfrmance. He decided t dig deeper and cnduct an analytic study f existing research t see if there was any prf t the idea. What he discvered truly surprised him.
Crede analyzed data frm previusly published studies that examined 52 classes with almst 8,000 students, primarily cllege-level curses, t determine if frequent quizzes imprved the students’ academic perfrmance. Labratry settings were kept ut f the study because Crede wanted t bserve whether similar studies frm labs wuld apply t general classrms.
Crede discvered that when students are quizzed ver class material at least nce a week, they tend t perfrm better n midterm and final exams cmpared t students wh did nt take quizzes.

The chances f passing a class went thrugh the rf where instructrs used this.

Als, quizzes that required students t answer with written respnses prved mre beneficial t their understanding f class material cmpared t multiple-chice questins.
Asking teachers t grade written quizzes daily r weekly may discurage sme frm carrying them ut in their classes. Instead, it is recmmended that instructrs give nline quizzes that can be autmatically graded by a curse management system. Quiz attributes(属性) prved insignificant in the study, including whether the tests were pp quizzes r planned, r if they were nline r n paper.
24．What did Crede d t ensure his study’s accuracy?

21．细节理解题。根据第3段的“By aviding just ne flush a day, yu culd save abut 4.5 gallns f water.(通过避免一天一次冲洗，你可以节省大约4.5加仑的水)”可知，一个人可以“ save abut 4.5 gallns f water.”那么本题三个人所节省的水，就是3乘以4.5等于13.5，因为是“ abut”，所以选择B项，数字14最接近。故选B。
22．词句猜测题。根据第5段内容“Leave yur shes at the dr when yu cme int yur hme. Unwanted fertilizers, lead, and pisnus cleaners fund n utdr surfaces can hitch a ride n yur shes and track thrugh yur huse.( 当你走进你的家时，把你的鞋子放在门口。 在户外地面上可以被发现的不必要的肥料、铅和有毒清洁剂可以hitch a ride在你的鞋子上，进入你的房子)”可知，进屋前把鞋子放在门外，以免不必要的肥料，铅和有毒的清洁剂进入室内，那些东西自然是在外面鞋底粘回来的。故划线部分与A项“被粘贴”意思相近。故选A项。
23．主旨大意题。文章第一段就点明了主题“t make a difference t ur envirnment.(对环境做出影响)”，其他部分仅仅是不同方面的措施。由此推断，本文主要讲述了人们可以用一些方法来保护环境。故选C项。

26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Asking teachers t grade written quizzes daily r weekly may discurage sme frm carrying them ut in their classes.”可知，要求老师每天或每周给笔试打分，会让一些老师不愿在课堂上再去批阅，因此推断因为那样的话，需要批改的作业就太多了，工作量太大了，这是一课堂测验的不利之处。故选B项。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一自然段中“He decided t dig deeper and cnduct an analytic study f existing research t see if there was any prf t the idea.”（他决定深入挖掘，并对现有的研究进行分析研究，看看是否有任何证据证明这一观点。）和“Crede discvered that when students are quizzed ver class material at least nce a week, they tend t perfrm better n midterm and final exams cmpared t students wh did nt take quizzes.”（Crede发现，当学生每周至少接受一次课堂材料的测验时，他们在期中和期末考试中的表现往往比没有参加测验的学生更好。）可知，本文主要讲述了Crede经过研究证明经常进行小测验会对学生成绩有积极的影响，故B项“小测验可以提高学习成绩”最适合作文章的标题。故选B项。
