The author says: “Some argue that homework is a waste of time. Yet research shows that a moderate amount of homework can improve test scores for older students.” How does the author respond to the argument against homework?
“Researchers gave half of a group of volunteers a new vitamin and the other half a dummy pill. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who got which until the end.” Why did the researchers keep this secret?
Choose the correct word: “It was a ___ decision, made in seconds.”
Choose the correct word for formal writing: “Does the manager object to ___ leaving early?”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The mortality rate from the disease has fallen.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The tumour had metastasised to the liver.”
答案: A · By presenting research that supports some homework
The author counters the claim with research evidence that moderate homework can help older students.
答案: C · To stop expectations from affecting the results
Keeping both groups unaware (a double-blind design) prevents expectations of volunteers or researchers from biasing the results.
答案: B · quick
An adjective describes a noun, so “quick decision” is correct. “Quickly” is an adverb and describes verbs.
答案: A · my
In formal English, a pronoun before a gerund takes the possessive form, just as it would before a noun: “my leaving”, like “my departure”.
答案: A · Death
Mortality refers to death; the mortality rate is the number of deaths in a population.
答案: A · Spread from its original site
To metastasise (US: metastasize) is for cancer to spread from where it started to another part of the body.
