全面实施素质教育的要求下，怎样评价学生的优、良、中、差呢?为此，我制定了这样的标准：一是在大纲规定的基础科60分以上，并能发现自己的特长且有所发展的，视为及格；二是基础科及格或良好，特长科明显超过同年级学生的，视为良好；三是基础科良好，特长科大大超过同年级学生或有所发明创造的，视为优秀；四是仅基础科及格或仅特长科有所发展的，均视为不及格；五是仅基础科良好，或特长科单方独进的，视为畸形发展，作降格评价。这一评价标准的实施，使绝大部分差生都抬起头来走路，找到了自己成才的优势与途径，也使文化课考试分数好的学生不再自我感觉良好。从而找到了良性互补、和谐发展的新路子。通过一个学期的实践，学生的学习积极性明显高涨，各科学习成绩有了大幅度的提高，各科总分由原来年级的倒数第二，上升到年级的第二名。
[问题1][简答题]
请你针对案例中制定的评价标准，谈谈自己的看法。
素质教育要求我们把学生培养成全面发展且具有个人特长的有用人才，其实质就是通过合格加特长的标准和策略培养人才。因此，我们应调动学生的积极性。注意在学生的身心特性确立发展方向时，特长的发展最好与相关方面的发展和谐并进。但和谐发展与全面发展又有所区别。和谐发展是学生对全面发展的具体选择。作为学生整体来说．应把全人类的知识、技能和优良品质都继承下来；但作为学生个体来说，只能以特长为龙头带动相关方面和谐发展，成为基础相对宽厚而特色鲜明的人才。

Passage 2
The subject of ballads,books and films, Robin Hood has proven to be one of popular culture's mostenduring folk heroes. Over the course of 700 years, the outlaw fromNottinghamshire who robs the rich to give to the poor has emerged as one of themost enduring folk heroes in popular culture-and one of the most versatile. Buthow has the legend of Sherwood Forest's merry outlaws evolved over time? Did areal Robin Hood inspire these classic tales?
Beginning in the 15thcentury and perhaps even earlier, Christian revelers in certain parts ofEngland celebrated May Day with plays and games involving a Robin Hood figurewith near-religious significance. In the 19th century, writer-illustrators likeHoward Pyle adapted the traditional tales for children, popularizing them inthe United States and around the world. More recently, bringing Robin to thesilver screen has become?a rite of passage?for directors ranging fromMichael Curtiz and Ridley Scott to Terry Gilliam and Mel Brooks.
Throughout Robin'sexistence, writers, performers and filmmakers have probed their imaginationsfor new incarnations that resonate with their respective audiences. In14th-century England, where agrarian discontent had begun to chip away at thefeudal system, he appears as an anti-establishment rebel who murders governmentagents and wealthy landowners. Later variations from times of less socialupheaval dispense with the gore and cast Robin as a dispossessed aristocrat witha heart of gold and a love interest, Maid Marian.
Academics, meanwhile,have combed the historical record for evidence of a real Robin Hood. Englishlegal records suggest that, as early as the 13th century, “Robehod,” “Rabunhod”and other variations had become common epithets for criminals. But what hadinspired these nicknames: a fictional tale, an infamous bandit or an amalgam ofboth? The first literary references to Robin Hood appear in a series of 14th-and 15th-century ballads about a violent yeoman who lived in Sherwood Forestwith his men and frequently clashed with the Sheriff of Nottingham. Rather thana peasant, knight or fallen noble, as in later versions, the protagonist ofthese medieval stories is a commoner. Little John and Will Scarlet are part ofthis Robin’s “merry” crew-meaning, at the time, an outlaw's gang-but MaidMarian, Friar Tuck and Alan-a-Dale would not enter the legend until later,possibly as part of the May Day rituals.
While most contemporaryscholars have failed to turn up solid clues, medieval chroniclers took forgranted that a historical Robin Hood lived and breathed during the 12th or 13thcentury. The details of their accounts vary widely, however, placing him inconflicting regions and eras. Not until John Major's “History of Greater Britain” (1521), for example, is he depicted asa follower of King Richard, one of his defining characteristics in modem times.
?We may never know forsure whether Robin Hood ever existed outside the verses of ballads and pages ofbooks. And even if we did, fans, young and old, would still surely flock toEngland's Nottinghamshire region for a tour of the legend's alleged formerhangouts, from centuries-old pubs to the Major Oak in Sherwood Forest. What wedo know is that the notion of a brave rebel who lives on the outskirts ofsociety, fighting injustice and oppression with his band of companions, hasuniversal appeal-whether he's played by Erroll Flynn, Russell Crowe or even, ason a 1979 episode of “The Muppet Show,” Kermit the Frog.
Which of the following is a proper title for the passage?

In recent years,however, society has come to understand the limitations of schools that merelysort and rank students. We have discovered that students in the bottomone-third to one-half of the rank order-plus all who drop out before beingranked-fail to develop the foundational reading, writing, and mathematicalproficiencies needed to survive in, let alone contribute to, an increasinglytechnically complex and ethnically diverse culture. So today, in asking schoolsto leave no child behind, society is asking that educators raise up the bottomof the rank-.order distribution to a specified level of competence.
