Recently, cities like Chengdu, Qingdao and Fuzhou have cancelled unified(统一的) final exams for 10th and 11th graders across their cities. This move follows a national notice from the Ministry of Education(教育部), which aims to reduce students' study pressure and help them develop in many ways. Instead of city-wide exams, schools now organize their own small tests.
Parents have mixed feelings. Many feel worried. They say without unified exams, they can't know their children's real level compared with others in the city. Some also fear that different schools may have tests of different quality, making it hard to plan for the future. However, a few parents support the change, as it lets their kids have less stress about being put in order.
Experts have shared their ideas. They say it does not mean no exams at all, but a better way to check students' learning. Students can have more time for hobbies and their favourite study tasks. To reduce parents' worries, education departments provide standard test questions for schools to use.
This new step tries to balance study and happiness. It may take time for everyone to get used to it, but it is good for students' healthier growth. For schools, designing proper tests on their own may be a problem.
1. What do schools do instead of city-wide unified final exams?
A. They stop all kinds of tests for students.
B. They need to prepare small tests on their own.
C. They ask parents to take tests at home.
D. They use tests made by students themselves.
2. What may the underlined word "it" refer to(指的是)?
A. Cancelling unified final exams.
B. Knowing the students' real level.
C. Reducing students' study pressure.
D. Having more time for hobbies.
3. What will probably be talked about next?
A. Ways to balance study and happiness.
B. Ways for parents to reduce worries.
C. Ways to follow the experts' ideas.
D. Ways for schools to design proper tests.

答案
1. B
2. A 代词指代题。结合前文可知，it指的就是取消期末统一考试这件事。
3. D 推理判断题。文章最后提到“For schools, designing proper tests on their own may be a problem.”可知，接下来很可能会围绕如何解决这个问题展开描述，也就是围绕学校如何设计合适测试的方法展开讨论。

解析
【分析】
本题为教育主题的说明文阅读理解，考查细节理解、代词指代、推理判断三类阅读技能。解题思路如下：第1题需定位原文中“instead of”后的内容，匹配学校的具体做法；第2题需联系代词所在句的前文核心事件，确定“it”的指代对象；第3题需结合文章最后一段的伏笔信息，推断后续讨论的内容。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据原文第一段最后一句“Instead of city-wide exams, schools now organize their own small tests.”可知，学校不再组织全市统一考试，而是自行组织小型测试，对应选项B。A选项“停止所有考试”与原文“does not mean no exams at all”矛盾；C选项“让家长在家考试”原文未提及；D选项“学生自己出题”与原文“schools now organize their own small tests”不符，故排除A、C、D。
2. 代词指代题：代词“it”所在句前文核心事件为“cancelled unified final exams（取消统一期末考）”，结合第三段“it does not mean no exams at all”可知，“it”指代的是“取消统一期末考”这件事，对应选项A。
3. 推理判断题：文章最后一段最后一句提到“For schools, designing proper tests on their own may be a problem（学校自行设计合适的测试是个问题）”，说明学校设计合适测试存在困难，因此接下来会围绕解决该问题的方法展开，即讨论学校如何设计合适的测试，对应选项D。
【答案】
1. B
2. A
3. D
【知识点】
细节理解题、代词指代题、推理判断题
【点评】
本题围绕“学习减负”主题展开，考查学生对文本细节、代词指代及逻辑推理的能力，题目设置贴合初中英语阅读考点，难度适中，能有效考查学生的阅读理解水平。
【难度系数】
0.6
