This is a young girl’s homework for the evening. English： Read three chapters and write a report. Math： Complete 30 problems. Science： Do a worksheet, front and back. French： Study new words for tomorrow’s test. It’s going to be a long night.

This happens to students in America. Do students in the United States receive too much homework? According to the National Education Association, a student should be assigned (布置) no more than 10 minutes per grade level per night. For example, a first grader should only have 10 minutes of homework, a second grader, 20 minutes, and so on.

It’s no good giving students too much homework. According to research, kids are developing more illness at school, such as stomachaches, headaches and sleep problems than before.

Everybody knows that teachers are the ones who assign homework, but they are not the only ones to blame (受責(zé)備). “Many teachers are under greater pressure (壓力) than ever before,” says Kylene Beers, President of the National Council for teachers of English, “Some of it comes from parents, some from the wish for high scores on tests.” Teachers who are under pressure feel the need to assign more homework.

Some people have different ideas, saying that homework prepares kids for doing better in high school, better in college, and getting better job in the future. But too much homework is sapping students’ strength, curiosity（削弱學(xué)生的個性和好奇心), and most importantly, their love of learning, is that really what teachers and parents want?

This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts(花生), while the other led some kind of army across America. I looked at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: let the coin decide. I flipped(擲) a coin and ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.

Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”

Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?

Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I should get a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳過) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.

1.________ helped me decide what my report would be about.

A. The Internet B. My classmates

C. My grandpa D. A coin

2. People in the class acted strangely because ________.

A. I was too proud of my homework

B. I mistook what the homework was about

C. the whole world suddenly became quiet

D. the teacher’s face turned to a stone

3.We can infer(推斷) from the passage that ________.

A. the headmaster didn’t like the writer at all

B. the writer’s classmates felt sad at his mistake

C. the writer knew little about American history

D. the writer’s grandpa was a very wise man

任務(wù)型閱讀 閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成表格中所缺信息，在答題卷上相應(yīng)的橫線上填寫答案，每空限填一詞。

What’s the most important thing in your life? Do you think about this question?

I began to think about it when I was just a little girl. I had a lot of friends and I loved playing with them. So I thought friendship(友誼) was the most important thing in life. If I had no friends, I would be very sad.

When I got older, I thought the most important thing was music. I was crazy about music at that time. To me, if I couldn’t sing or listen to music, my life would be boring.

When I was 12, I read a book that tells a beautiful story about the love between a mother and her child. I was happy to find that love was the most important thing. I thought love made my life beautiful.

Not long ago, I got a new answer to the question from another book. “Happiness is the destination(目標(biāo)) for everyone.” the writer said.

Soon I began to understand friendship, music, love and happiness are all very important to us. These important things make our lives colourful and beautiful.

What’s the most important thing in life now? I still don’t have the answer. However, I don’t want to know. I just want to care about everything important in my life.

I hope everyone can find the important things in their lives, and cherish them!
