Passage 2 请阅读Passage 2，完成第26-30小题。 Passage 2 Teacher education provided by U．S． colleges and universities has been routinely criticized since its inception in the early nineteenth century, sometimes deservedly． These programs, like non-university programs, are uneven in quality and can be improved． What makes today´ s criticisms different is an aggressive effort by advocacy groups, and self-proclaimed educational entrepreneursto deregulate the preparation of teachers, and to expand independent, alternative routes into teaching． This effort to "disrupt" the field of teacher preparation in the United States has gained considerable momentum and legitimacy, with venture capitalists, philanthropy, and the U．S． Department of Education all providing sponsorship and substantial funding． The strength of this effort is that the United States may quickly seek to dismantle its university system and replace much of it with independent, private programs． The resulting system of teacher preparation may differ dramatically in its government, structure, content, and processes moving away from its current location alongside legal, medical, and other professional preparation that pairs academic degrees with professional training． Throughout the nation, states are reporting teacher shortages in particular subject areas and geographical locations, and several states have either passed legislation to lower the standards for becoming a teacher or, like the state of Washington, have looked toward expanding the number of teacher education providers to try to fill teaching vacancies． The federal government has contributed to the push to lower standards for becoming a teacher with the Teacher Preparation Academy provision in the new K-12 education law, the Every Student Succeeds Act, which encourages states to expand the number of independent programs not associated with colleges and universities． Because of the increasing tuition rates, a consequence in part, of cuts in funding to public universities that continue to educate most U．S． teachers, enrollments in college and university teacher education programs have declined in many parts of the country． Independent teacher education programs are being viewed by some as an important part of the solution in staffing the nation´s classrooms and addressing our serious and enduring problems in education inequities． Additionally, advocacy groups, philanthropists, and so-called education entrepreneurs are working aggressively to expand these independent alternative routes into teaching． Given the seriousness of the teacher shortage problem in the United States and the substantial media attention that has been given to independent teacher education programs as the solution to teacher shortages and education inequities, policy makers should very carefully examine the evidence that exists about the nature and impact of these relatively new programs that are rapidly expanding while university teacher education enrollments decline．What can be inferred from Paragraph 1 about criticisms against teacher education?
A
The criticisms have been increasing．
B
The criticisms may not be well justified sometimes．
C
The criticisms mainly focus on the quality of non-university programs．
D
The criticisms usually come from advocacy groups and so-called educational entrepreneurs．

Teaching aims:
Knowledge aim:
Students will grasp and understand the main and detailed information of the passage.
Ability aim:
Students will improve their reading and speaking skills.
Emotional aim:
Students will foster the interest and desire of learning English and take part in speaking activities actively.
Key and difficult point:
Key Point: Students will totally understand the content of the passage.
Difficult Point: Students will foster the interest of learning English, and take part in speaking activities.
Teaching procedure:
Step 1: Warming-up
1. Greetings.
2. Show students pictures about different types of transportation and naturally lead to today’s topic.
Step 2: Pre-reading
1. Ask students two questions and some volunteers will be invited to share their answers.
Q1: How do you come to school?
Q2: How do your parents go to work?
2. Ask students to predict the main idea of the passage based on the above discussion and pictures on the screen.
Step 3: While-reading
1st reading: Ask students to read the passage for the first time and check their prediction. Besides, they need to find out which countries are mentioned in the passage and circle them.
2nd reading: Ask students to read the passage for the second time and complete the following chart. Some students will be invited to finish it on the blackboard.

Blackboard design:
1. How to improve students’ reading and speaking ability in your class?
2. How did you evaluate the performance of students in the class?答案：解析：1.
It is very important to improve students’ reading and speaking abilities. In my class, I take three specific steps to improve their reading and speaking abilities. Firstly, before reading the article, I ask the students to guess the main idea of the article according to my questions and pictures on the screen. As you heard, this can not only exercise students’ guessing ability, but also help them read the passage with questions. In the while-reading part, I set two times of reading, namely extensive reading and intensive reading. Obviously, students’ scanning ability and the ability to grasp detailed information can be improved. It also helps them form good reading habits. As for speaking ability, I organize a discussion activity without standard answers. Students can express their views freely in groups. In this way, their reading and speaking abilities can be improved a lot.
2.
Students are under a stage of growing and developing. They are eager to be evaluated and encouraged by their teachers. At the same time, students are different, and their acceptance and abilities of learning are different. Therefore, in my class, I have adopted a variety of different evaluations. For the students who answered correctly, I would praise them directly, such as “excellent”, “you can find the answer so fast”. For those students who dare not answer questions or did not find out the answers, I just encouraged them and guided them to say the answers, and gave some encouraging comments, like “nice try!”, “you’ve made a great progress”. Also, some students made mistakes. In my class, instead of directly blaming the student for being wrong, I asked other students to help him/her and give them a proper evaluation. -

Teaching aims:
Knowledge aim:

1. Fast reading: students read the passage fast and figure out what kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage then make a list.
2. Careful reading: students read the passage carefully and answer the question: what are the animals doing? Then fill in the blanks.
1. How do you improve students’ interest in learning English?
2. What principle should you use in the post-reading step?答案：解析：1.
In the process of English teaching, teachers should enrich the teaching approaches, not only teach students through "listening, speaking, reading", but also integrate situational teaching, so that students can feel the diversity of teaching and learning.
Besides, teachers can make use of the form of cooperative study and organize various practice activities in the classroom to create an atmosphere of mutual assistance and cooperation, so that students have positive sense of learning.
2.
First, we should persist in the communicative principle. In the production step of reading
class, students should be organized in groups to cultivate their speaking ability and communicative ability. In this way, we can reach the New Curriculum Standard.
Then, we should insist on the truth principle. That means we should provide more real materials that are closet to students’ real life, such as situation creation like what I did in this class. In this way, students’ interest can be aroused and they can apply what they’ve learned in real communication. -

2. What will you do if you pass this exam?答案：解析：1.
Yes, I do. I have taught a teenager in high school. She was the junior. I mainly taught her grammar. I found her grammar was not very systematic. So I taught her from the grammar in words to the grammar in sentences in order to make her master the whole grammar, especially those always appeared in her exams. And during the teaching, I find the most important that it is the teacher should have a better understanding of the whole grammar and the high school English course. Besides, the teacher should pay more attention to the patience. It will make students relax when their learning and get along with the students.

First, I will find a teaching job to practice my teaching ability. And at the same time to prepare the teachers’ exams for school. When I prepare, I think the most important it’s to know the content of text in high school and do many exercises to practice these knowledge.
Second, I will visit some good teachers who is teaching the high school and learn some experience and practice my teaching ability.
