Question

【題目】 Do you feel bored on your ordinary school campus? Then design oneself! Recently, students at Sacajawea Middle School, US, designed a “School of the Future”.

These students were taking part in the “School Next Design” national competition. Some of their designs won the favor judges (評委) with he help of Michigan State University (MSU) students and entered the final sound.

“Three eighth - grader teams from Sacajawea Middle School, here in Bozeman, need to come up with their idea of school of the future,”said MSU architecture (建筑學(xué)) student Jennisse Schule.

Lots of ideas came from the students. Some wanted to build a planetarium (天文館), some designed a movie theater. And eighth - graders Heather, Jon and Mitchell would like to have athletic buildings at their school. And they wanted lots!

“So we have got our gym over here. It is a big facility (設(shè)備). It has got a weight room, an aerobics (有氧健身) room, a gym, a track and them some turf (草皮) for soccer and football,” said Mitchell.

But of course, designing a building is not easy for some eight - graders. They had to learn architecture terms, the materials they needed to use and how to put the models together on a computer. Also, they needed to make a report, videos and an essay.

Like Heather said, it isn’ t just about building. “It’s about community and how someone should feel and making everything a better place, a whole town or neighborhood.”

The winning design will now compete in the national competition in Vancouver, Washington in spring.

本文主要介紹了在“School Next Design”競賽中進(jìn)入決賽的設(shè)計——未來的學(xué)校。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“Three eighth - grader teams…need to come up with their idea of school of the future”可知，在“School Next Design”比賽中，學(xué)生需要提出他們對未來學(xué)校的構(gòu)想。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“And eighth - graders Heather, Jon and Mitchell would like to have athletic buildings at their school”可知，Heather小組希望他們的學(xué)校能有體育樓。故選C。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“It’s about community and how someone should feel and making everything a better place”可知，比賽的目的是讓學(xué)生知道如何使學(xué)校這個社區(qū)變得更美好。故選D。
