“What is the biggest challenge of graduate school?\an event I helped organize last summer. “Not letting the support from my community turn into pressure one member responded. That answer might have surprised some? who probably expected to hear about experiments that didn't work or trudging through academic materials. But I understood exactly what she meant.
Throughout my education, friends and family have expected me to take advantage of every opportunity I come across because I may not get the same chance again. They expect me to give outstanding performances everywhere I go because I represent them and our culture. Mentors （导师）expect that I will never give up. This has been a great source of motivation, but also of pressure.
I remembered a conversation with a mentor. At the end of my first year of graduate school? I struggled with a strong desire to leave the program with a master's degree. I was accustomed to hearing “Don't give up\have to finish\—words that were meant to be motivational. Instead? they made me feel I would be a disappointment if I left. After I discussed the pros and cons of leaving with my mentor, she responded completely different from what I expected. “I support any decision you make,\Hearing this simple? direct statement of support? I felt every muscle of my body loosen.
My mentor knew the right thing to say? but we can't expect the same from everyone. Sometimes, friends and family ask me, “How long until you get your degree?\stress starter. Now? when people in my community—always with the best intentions—say something that creates pressure and makes me feel bad? I tell them and we talk about it. I tell them that I prefer to hear, “Do you need someone to talk to? How can I help you through this rough time?\to notice a change. These days, I get fewer stress-inducing （引起压力 的）questions and comments. 24. Which can replace the underlined word “trudging\
A. Struggling.
B. Seeing.
C. Breaking.
D. Cutting.
25. What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about the author?
A. He was afraid to leave his program. B. He appreciated what his mentor said. C. He preferred to discuss pros and cons. D. He had a strong desire to get a master's degree. 26. Which does the author prefer to hear when he needs support?
A. Never give up!
C. Have you prepared for the result? 27. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Value the source of inspiration from your community. B. Communicate with your community more about study. C. Find a way to block out support from your community. D. Let support from your community become less stressful.
C
A new study finds that the average performance of students from the lowest income families in the US lags
B. How about a chat?
D. Go ahead! I will back you up!
（滞后）about three to four years behind that of the highest income students—an achievement gap that has remained constant for decades. An analysis of standardized tests given to more than 2. 7 million middle and high school students over 40 years suggests that federal education programs aimed at closing the gap are falling short.
Researchers looked at results from four different programs conducted nationwide at various intervals from 1971 to 2015 to test teenagers in math, reading and science. A total of 98 exams were used in the programs? testing students aged 13-15 as well as 17-year-olds. Test scores for 17-year-old students in the bottom 10th income percentile （百分位）were far lower than those in the top 10th percentile.
Meanwhile? the overall test scores didn't shift for 17-year-olds during the study period. They did improve slightly for 13- to 15-year-olds, which suggests that federal programs for younger students have been helpful. But the lowest income students still score much lower than the highest income students. “Programs for older students are badly needed”， says study coauthor Eric Hanushek? an education economist at Stanford University. “Lower achievement in high school leads to lower earning potential throughout adulthood. The next generation is going to look a lot like this generation. Kids from poor families will become poor themselves.”
Whether the problem is worsening, however, is up for debate. A 2011 study, conducted by Stanford education sociologist Sean Reardon, looked at 12 exams administered from 1960 to 2007, and found that the gap in test scores between the poorest and the wealthiest students grew by 40 percent. It shows the poorest students lag about three to six years behind their wealthier peers in learning. Reardon suggested parents of means were increasingly investing in their children's education, sharpening the divide.
The different results between the new study and that conducted in 2011 come down to the fact that the researchers analyzed results from different tests and how they categorized （分类） family income level? says education sociologist Anna Chmielewski. Hanushek and Reardon agree that the income-related achievement gap is alarming.
28. What does the result of the new study indicate?
A. The poorest students’ lagging behind exists in specific age groups. B. A better standard for category should be adopted in the study. C. The federal education programs turned out unsuccessful generally. D. A better school performance necessarily leads to higher income. 29. How does the author present the serious issue?
A. By showing the discussion result. B. By clarifying some points. C. By doing a questionnaire.
D. By making a comparison.
30. What may cause the different results of the two studies?
A. The different countries. B. The analytical methods. C. The income assessments. D. The different ranges of age. 31. Why does the income-related achievement gap concern people?
A. It will disappear eventually. B. It will further widen the social gap. C. It results in the students’ blind competitions. D. It makes Americans smarter and richer.
D
