northeastern corner of the country, which is called New England.
New England has many trees and thin, rocky soil. Anyone who has wanted to start a new farm there
has had to work very hard. The first job has been cutting down trees. The next job has been digging
the stumps of the trees out of the soil. Then the farmer has had the difficult job of removing stones from
his land.
This work of removing stones never really ends, because every winter more stones appear. They come
up through the thin soil from the rocks below. Farmers have to keep removing stones from the fields. Even
today, farms which have been worked on for 200 years keep producing more stones.
That is why stone walls are used instead of fences around New England fields. The stone walls are not
high; a man can easily climb over them. But they keep the farmer"s cows from joining his neighbor"s cows.
B. why there are many stone walls in New England
C. which parts of New England first used stone walls
D. how many fences there are in England
A. the winter is very long there
B. the farms are very old
C. the soil is rocky and thin
D. the summer is too hot
B. is usually done during the winter
C. was more difficult before machines were used
D. is easy after machines were used
B. to keep the farmer"s cattle from wandering away
C. to provide privacy for the farmer"s family
D. to prevent the wind from blowing away the earth

school. How do they get an education?
In Hollywood, where many TV shows are made, about forty teachers give lessons for the children in
the shows. They teach wherever their pupils are working.
They teacher"s job is very important. She is responsible for making sure that the child works only the
permitted hours each week. She is also responsible for making sure that the child learns the required
subjects. She makes sure, too, that the child gets enough rest and play, along with his education.
Child actors are required to attend classes twenty hours each week. California law says that they must
be taught from September to the middle of June. If they do not get good marks in school, they are not
permitted to continue working in TV shows.
TV children are usually good pupils, and most of their teachers like this special kind of work. Their
classes are held in many interesting places. Sometimes the "classroom" is a Mississippi riverboat. Sometimes
it is the inside of a spaceship. Often the pupils become famous stars.
B. Unfortunately children who act in TV shows cannot be educated because their work does not permit
them to attend school.
C. Special arrangements are made for giving a good education to children during the weeks of their
employment as TV actors.

C. In New York
D. In California
B. Most of them enjoy their work.
C. Many of them hope to become TV actors and actresses.

after school and before their parents get home. We"ve worked to teach our children that drugs are dangerous,
illegal and wrong.
Today, I want to talk to you about the historic opportunity we now have to protect our nation"s children
from an even more deadly threat. 2 Smoking kills more people every day than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents,
murders, drugs and fires combined. Nearly 90% of those smokers lit their first cigarette before they turned
18. consider this: 3,000 children start to smoke every day illegally, and 1,000 of them will die sooner because
of it. 3 For more than five years we"ve worked to stop our children from smoking before they begin to try,
starting a nationwide campaign to educate them about the dangers of smoking to reduce their access to
tobacco products, and to restrict tobacco companies from advertising to young people. 4 That means if we
act now, we have it in our power to stop three million children from smoking and save a million lives as a
result. So this is an emergency that needs quick action of all of you. 5 .
A. Since I took office, I"ve done much to protect our children from harm.
B. This is a national tragedy(悲剧)that every American should help to prevent.
C. The quicker action we take, the fewer teen smokers there will be.
D. We have to educate them about the dangers of smoking.
E. It is smoking that is more terrible than drugs.

made from an empty oil tin.Their headmistress, Emile Jean-Noel, is one of the few women school
headteachers in the country.
Today, over 70% of Haitian population live without proper food, water, schools, or housing. To
reduce the hunger that prevents learning and to encourage parents to send their children to school, meals
are provided by the World Food Programme.
"We are so cut off that we have many difficulties," comments Emile, adding that finding chalk, school
books and other materials is practically impossible.Emile tries to encourage people around her to make use
of available resources.Her efforts are bearing fruit.One of her successes was convincing local women to
contribute to their children" s schooling and increase their income by selling embroidery( 刺绣) and other
handicrafts.
Recent political instability has meant that the country has not invested (投资) in education for ten
years.Only 44% of children go to school and less than half of them finish primary school. Less than a
third of these children go on to secondary school.In rural areas it is not rare to find 17 and 18 year olds
in primary school- Beau-Roc has only 4 teachers for 260 pupils.Emile works constantly to improve her
pupils" environment.Under her direction, a local worker is now constructing a store house for the food
delivered regularly by the WFP.
Not only is Emile" s salary small, but she receives it irregularly.For her, transport is a real headache.
She lives five kilometers away and has to take the tap tap, a privately-owned bus, costing more than she
can afford.
"The decision to be a rural teacher in Haiti should not be taken lightly", Emile comments. "With all the
sacrifices and risks it requires, only those who are really cut out for teaching should do it." However,
Emile loves her job. "I always feel at home with the children and, because the parents understand what I"m
doing, I try to give my best."
B. Persuading local women to care about their children" s education.
C. Encouraging people around to use those available resources.
D. Finding chalk, school books and other materials.
B. political instability in Haiti
C. challenges in Emile" s life
D. Emile" s constant efforts
B. unfamiliar with teaching
C. qualified for teaching
D. cautious about teaching
B. Devotion to education.
C. Politics and children.
D. Love and beauty.
about rights of way or showing that we can parallel park a car. Many future lawyers and doctors probably
wish they could join their profession without taking an exam.
But tests and standards are a necessary fact of life. They protect us from unskilled drivers, harmful
products and dishonest professionals. In schools too exams play a.constructive role. They tell public officials
whether new school programs are making a difference and where new investments are likely to pay off.
They tell teachers what their students have learned--and have not. They tell parents how their children are
doing compared with others their age. They encourage students to make more effort.
It is important to recall that for most of century, educators used intelligence tests to decide which
children should get a high-quality education.The point of IQ testing was to find out how much children were
capable of learning rather than to test what they had actually learned. Based on IQ scores, millions of children
were assigned to dumbed-down programs instead of solid courses in science, math, history, literature and
foreign language.
This history reminds us that tests should be used to improve education. Every child should have access
to a high-quality education.Students should have full opportunity to learn what will be tested; otherwise their
scores will merely reflect whether they come from an educated family.
In the past few years, we have seen the enormous benefits that flow to disadvantaged students because
of the information provided by state tests.Those who fall behind are now getting extra instruction in
after-school classes and summer programs.In their efforts to improve student performance, states are
increasing teachers salaries, testing new teachers and insisting on better teacher education.
Performance in education means the mastery of both knowledge and skills. This is why it is reasonable to
test teachers to make sure they know their subject matter, as well as how to teach it to young children. And
this is why it is reasonable to assess whether students are ready to advance to the next grade or graduate
from highschool.
B. students to meet their teachers" requirements
C. teachers to understand if their students have made efforts
D. parents to compare their kids" achievements across schools
B. are less academically challenging
C. are intended for intelligent students
D. enable children to make steady progress
B. Tests should focus on what students have actually learned.
C. Intelligent tests decide if children should get a high-quality education.
D. Intelligent tests are helpful in separating excellent students from poor ones.
B. To defend the role of testing in education.
C. To explain what high-quality education means.
D. To call for thorough and complete reform in education.
to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so
on. These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.
First, let"s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you
can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are
usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have
as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it"s very important for
you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the
information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn"t
enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have
a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting
usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the
homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion
sections.
If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you"ll also have to spend several hours a week
in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom
than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually
have to read and write more than science majors do.
B. to persuade the students to attend lectures
C. to encourage the students to take part in discussions
D. to advise the students to choose proper majors
B. must join the students in the discussion sections
C. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures
D. require the students to read beyond the textbooks
B. talking over what the students have read about the courses
C. discussing the problems related to the students" homework
D. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture
B. spend less time on their studies than non science majors
C. consider experiments more important than discussions
D. read and write less than non science majors
