阅读理解。     In the United States, children start school when they are five years old. In some states they must stay in
school until they are sixteen. Most students are seventeen or eighteen years old when they leave secondary (中
等的) schools. There are two kinds of schools in the United States: public schools and private (私立的)
schools. Most children go to public schools. Their parents do not have to pay for their education because the
schools receive money from the government. If a child goes to a private school, his parents have to get enough
money for his schooling. Some parents still prefer private schools, though they are much more expensive.
Today about half of the high school students go to universities after they finish the secondary school. A
student at state university does not have to pay very much if his parents live in that state. But many students
work while they are studying at universities. In this way they develop good working habits and live by their
own hands. (     )1. Children can go to school at the age of four in the U.S.                                                         
(     )2. Most parents prefer to send their children to private schools in America.                                        
(     )3. About fifty percent of high school students can go on to universities
           after they leave the secondary school today.
(     )4. Lots of American students go to universities by depending on their parents
            ompletely (完全地).                  
(     )5. The passage is mainly about American education.

     Children are amazing! They ①pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why?
It"s not because they have great natural language abilities. ② In fact, studies show that an adult"s potential (潜
能) to learn language is as good as a child"s.
     So why do children still seem to acquire (学到) languages more quickly than the rest of us? It"s because
of the way they learn. Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally-they listen, copy and communicate.
Let"s take a closer look at how children acquire languages. Perhaps we can discover a better, more "natural"
way to learn English.
     Children don"t practice grammar drills, but use languages to talk about things that interest them. This helps
them learn to express themselves. They don"t worry about inadequate (不足的) vocabulary or poor grammar.
They find ways to express themselves, and they do it successfully.
     ③Students should pay more attention to genuine (真实的) communication. Look for chances to talk with
people in English. If you can"t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an
English discussion group and chat about music, movies or whatever interests you.
     Don"t worry about making mistakes. The aim is to learn how to communicate easily and comfortably.
Remember that you can communicate successfully even with a small vocabulary.
     Trust your own natural ability to learn English. You"ve got more potential than you probably realize!
