Passage 3 The Significant Role of Mother Tongue in Education 母语在教育中的重要作用
【难度】：四颗星
【题型】：判断题5+选择题9
【类别】：教育学/语言习得
参考文章 READING PASSAGE 3
The Significant Role of Mother Tongue in Education
One consequence of population mobility is an increasing diversity within schools. To illustrate, in the city of Toronto in Canada, 58% of kindergarten pupils come from homes where English is not the usual language of communication. Schools in Europe and North America have experienced this diversity for years, and educational policies and practices vary widely between countries and even within countries. Some political parties and groups search for ways to solve the problem of diverse communities and their integration in schools and society. However, they see few positive consequences for the host society and worry that this diversity threatens the identity of the host society. Consequently, they promote unfortunate educational policies that will make the “problem” disappear. If students retain their culture and language, they are viewed as less capable of identifying with the mainstream culture and learning the mainstream language of the society.
The challenge for educator and policy-makers is to shape the evolution of national identity in such a way that rights of all citizens (including school children) are respected, and the cultural linguistic, and economic resources of the nation are maximised. To waste the resources of the nation by discouraging children from developing their mother tongues is quite simply unintelligent from the point of view of national self-interest. A first step in providing an appropriate education for culturally and linguistically diverse children is to examine what the existing research says about the role of children’s mother tongues in their educational development.
In fact, the research is very clear. When children continue to develop their abilities in two or more languages throughout their primary school, they gain a deeper understanding of language and how to use it effectively. They have more practice in processing language, especially when they develop literacy in both. More than 150 research studies conducted during the past 25 years strongly support what Goethe, the famous eighteenth-century German philosopher, once said: the person who knows only one language dose not truly know that language. Research suggests that bilingual children may also develop more flexibility in their thinking as a result of processing information through two different languages.
The level of development of children’s mother tongue is a strong predictor of their second language development. Children who come to school with a solid foundation in their mother tongue develop stronger literacy abilities in the school language. When parents and other caregivers (e.g. grandparents) are able to spend time with their children and tell stories or discuss issues with them in a way that develops their mother tongue, children come to school well-prepared to learn the school language and succeed educationally. Children’s knowledge and skills transfer across languages from the mother tongue to the school language. Transfer across languages can be two-way: both languages nurture each other when the educational environment permits children access to both languages.
Some educators and parents are suspicious of mother tongue-based teaching programs because they worry that they take time away from the majority language. For example, in a bilingual program when 50% of the time is spent teaching through children’s home language and 50% through the majority language, surely children won’t progress as far in the latter? One of the most strongly established findings of educational research, however, is that well-implemented bilingual programs can promote literacy and subject-matter knowledge in a minority language without any negative effects on children’s development in the majority language. Within Europe, the Foyer program in Belgium, which develops children’s speaking and literacy abilities in three languages (their mother tongue, Dutch and French), most clearly illustrates the benefits of bilingual and trilingual education (see Cummins, 2000).
It is easy to understand how this happens. When children are learning through a minority language, they are learning concepts and intellectual skills too. Pupils who know how to tell the time in their mother tongue understand the concept of telling time. In order to tell time in the majority language, they do not need to re-learn the concept. Similarly, at more advanced stages, there, is transfer across languages in other skills such as knowing how to distinguish the main idea from the supporting details of a written passage or story, and distinguishing fact from opinion. Studies of secondary school pupils are providing interesting findings in this area, and it would be worth extending this research.
Many people marvel at how quickly bilingual children seem to “pick up” conversational skills in the majority language at school (although it takes much longer for them to catch up with native speakers in academic language skills). However, educators are often much less aware of how quickly children can lose their ability to use their mother tongue, even in the home context. The extent and rapidity of language loss will vary according to the concentration of families from a particular linguistic group in the neighborhood. Where the mother tongue is used extensively in the community, then language loss among young children will be less. However, where language communities are not concentrated in particular neighborhoods, children can lose their ability to communicate in their mother tongue within 2-3 years of starting school. They may retain receptive skills in the language but they will use the majority language, in speaking with their peers and siblings and in responding to their parents. By the time children become adolescents, the linguistic division between parents and children has become an emotional chasm. Pupils frequently become alienated from the cultures of both home and school with predictable results.

概述：本文论证了母语在儿童教育中的关键作用。作者指出，支持母语发展的双语教育不仅不会阻碍主流语言的学习，反而能促进儿童的认知发展和学业成就。文章引用了大量研究证据，驳斥了"母语教学占用主流语言学习时间"的误解，并警告了母语流失对亲子关系和儿童身份认同造成的负面影响。
单选题：通常考察段落主旨或人物观点，需要综合理解上下文，而非依赖单一细节。注意排除含有化表述或与原文明显矛盾的选项。
判断题：重点关注作者观点与题干表述之间的对应关系。注意题干中的程度副词（如"less than half"、"earlier than"）往往是判断关键。

点评
动态表格题，两个年龄组在五年内参加马拉松的人数数据，全程单一上升趋势，属于小作文里比较友好的一类，但看重对于数据的比较。
(1)表格里1.200等数据是千分位符，不是小数。
(2)数据只有上升，没有多余转折点，所以重点放在抓"涨幅的大小"和比较"两组差距变化"，避免流水账式的写法。
② 18-39岁组始终占主导，且与40+组的gap逐年扩大。
讲总数和两组各自的上升：总人数从2000涨到2800；18-39组从1200涨到1750，40+组从800涨到1050。把"都在涨"这件事用首尾数字带一下。
讲两组之间的关系：18-39组每年都比40+组多，占比一直在总人数的60%左右。
而且差距在拉大，从2008年的400人差距拉到2012年的700人差距。
Task 2:
Some people think that governments should focus on developing the economy. Others believe that protecting the natural environment is more important. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
点评
Discuss both views and give your opinion，双边讨论型。题目给出两种观点，考生需分别论证两方观点的合理性，并在结尾明确表明个人立场。
题眼在于"government should focus on"，讨论应围绕政府的政策应优先于谁展开，不要只着重于论述经济或环境本身的重要性。此外，结尾不要模棱两可，即便最终立场是"两者兼顾但有所侧重"，也需明确表达倾向。
Introduction：改写题目，表明个人观点。
Conclusion：与开头段中的立场一致，简要说明理由，并可补充说明经济与环境并非完全对立，理想状态是实现协调发展。（补充说明一定要放在明确表态之后，作为延伸观点，否则会像墙头草，立场不够鲜明）
-经济增长能创造大量就业（job creation），直接民众生活水平（improve living standards）。
-只有经济实力增强，国家才有更多资源投入公共服务，比如医疗和教育（fund public services）。
-发展中国家往往面临贫困问题，经济增长是脱贫的前提（lift people out of poverty）。
-一个国家的综合国力（national strength）和国际竞争力也依赖经济基础。
-环境破坏很多是不可逆的（irreversible damage），被破坏后再去挽回是不理智的。
-污染治理的成本远高于预防成本。（the cost of cleaning up pollution outweighs the cost of prevention）
-气候变化（climate change）带来的极端天气、海平面上升（rising sea levels）等问题会反过来威胁经济发展本身。
-环境污染会影响公众健康（public health），间接增加社会医疗负担，这本身也是一种经济损失。
*补充一点思路：这两个观点其实不是完全对立的，我们可以强调"环境是经济可持续发展的基础"（environment as the foundation for sustainable economic growth）这个角度，把两者关联起来，而不是非此即彼地选边站，这样的论证会更有层次。
