二、复现话题词汇——提高阅读准度
新高考下的命题新视角：近年来，很多父母都选择让自己的孩子出国接受西方国家的教育，在他们看来，这样可以为孩子的未来打下更扎实的基础。因此“出国热”一度成为热门话题，高考中也会涉及此类话题，以此探讨出国留学的利与弊。实际上，无论是在国内还是在外国接受教育，取长补短，才能培养出更多更优秀的人才。
[话题感悟]
学习目标 ——语篇复现词汇，活学活用记忆更深
(加蓝词汇为本单元话题词汇，读文时请揣摩其用法)
[1]In the 1970s, a typical Chinese student in the US was there for a master's or doctoral degree.They were then followed by students getting their undergraduate degrees.Now, Chinese are the largest international group in US kindergarten­through­12th grade programs of study.
[2]Statistics show that 34,578 Chinese students are studying in primary and secondary schools in the US, or 52 percent of all international students there.When Tangwei first arrived at the school in 2009, the 18­year­old found that South Koreans were in the largest number at their boarding house.Then Chinese students took the place, as China has increased in affluence and economic success.
[3]Ma Shuheng, a senior at the high school, said, “Not only is the number increasing, the standard for admission is higher, too.” He said that when he first applied in 2012, there was hardly any limit to entry.“Now, most students who get in have a 90­plus TOEFL score, ” he added, referring to the Test of English as a Foreign Language.
[4]One of the reasons for many Chinese students studying in US schools is to escape the Gaokao, China's national entrance examination, and the fierce competition that comes with it.The other motivation is to get prepared for US colleges.“More younger Chinese students choose to go to US high schools, as more parents believe that this leads to a better education if their kids finally choose to go to US universities and colleges, ” said Yu Haoyang, founder of Global Intellect Consulting in Beijing.“They believe that US high schools offer better English­language and cultural training, and it is easier for their kids to master these skills and become more competitive, ” she said.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要向读者介绍了赴美国留学的中国留学生群体所出现的变化趋势：随着中国经济实力的增强，赴美国留学的学生的数量迅速增加，且不再是为了接受高等教育，而是贯穿从幼儿园开始的整个初级教育、中级教育、高等教育全部阶段。
1．In the 1970s, a Chinese student who went to the US was probably taking the________ course.
A．kindergarten　　　　　　 B．middle­school
C．undergraduate D．postgraduate
解析：选D　细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第一句“In the 1970s, a typical Chinese student in the US was there for a master's or doctoral degree.”可知，20世纪70年代，中国学生赴美主要是为了接受研究生教育，从而获得硕士研究生或博士研究生学位。undergraduate“本科生”， postgraduate“研究生”。
2．What's the meaning of the underlined word “affluence”in Para.2?
A．Wealth. B．Population.
C．Education. D．Environment.
解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据与之并列的名词“economic success”以及一般常识可以推知，此处affluence指代的是“财富(wealth)”，因为随着国家经济的增强，国民的收入增加，赴国外留学的人数自然会增长。
3．What can we learn about the students who expect to study in the US now?
A．They have made a large amount of money.
B．They can be admitted in the American school after the application.
C．They need to get high marks in TOEFL.
D．They should prepare as early as possible.
解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Now, most students who get in have a 90­plus TOEFL score ...”可知， 如今中国学生想要到美国学习，需要很高的托福(TOEFL)分数。
4．More Chinese parents choose to send their children at a young age to the US because ________.
A．the fierce competition in the Gaokao does harm to their children
B．only in the US can their children get a better language training
C．the middle school education in America is much better than that in China
D．their children can be better prepared for US universities
解析：选D　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“More younger Chinese students choose to go to US high schools ... choose to go to US universities and colleges ...”可知，越来越多的中国父母在孩子还小的时候就把他们送到美国学习，主要是想为日后上美国大学提前做好准备。
