題目列表(包括答案和解析)
That year , in the local school, there was a new math teacher, as well as some new pupils. One of the new kids was the stupidest child anyone had ever seen. It made no difference how quickly or how slowly they tried explaining numbers to him; he would always end up saying something enormously stupid. Like two plus two was five, seven times three was twenty-seven, or a triangle had thirty corners……
Before this boy arrived, math lessons had been the most boring of all. Now they were great fun. Encouraged by the new teacher, the children would listen to the pieces of nonsense spouted by the new kid, and they would have to correct his mistakes.
Whenever the new teacher asked questions, the stupid kid would stand up but made the wrong answers, the other students all wanted to be the first to find his mistakes, and then think up the most original ways to explain them. To do this they used all kinds of stuff : sweets, playing cards, oranges, paper planes, etc. It didn’t seem like any of this bothered the new kid.
However, Little Lewis was sure that it was bound to make him feel sad inside. Lewis was sure he would see him crying. So, one day, he decided to follow the new kid home after school. On leaving school, the new kid walked a few minutes to a local park, and there he waited for a while, until someone came along to meet him……
It was the new teacher!
The teacher gave the new kid a hug, and off they went, hand in hand. Following from a distance, Lewis could hear they were talking about math.

Interviewer: "Marjorie Scardino, you are leading one of the top companies in the U.K., and you've been voted business woman of the year. What qualities do you need to run a large company effectively?" Marjorie Scardino: "Well, I think different companies probably require different qualities, but for me there are only a few simple qualities that cut across all requirements, and those are courage and imagination and empathy. And by empathy, I mean, having the ability to put yourself in other people's positions and understand how they feel about situations and ideas." Interviewer: "Which business leaders do you admire and why?" Marjorie Scardino: "I think the best business leaders are probably ones we don't know about, not the stars we read in the newspapers. I think they're probably the ones who have had a great business idea and have seen the desired result. So the business leaders I most admire right now are those managers in Pearson who are achieving our goals of double-digit earnings growth." Interviewer: "What do business leaders actually do?" Marjorie Scardino: "My staff would probably say this was a really excellent question they ask themselves every day. I think what they do is just what I've said the business leaders I admire do. They create a business idea, and they see it through." Interviewer: "As a leader, how do you motivate your employees?" Marjorie Scardino: "I'd like to think we motivate each other. I think my job is to make sure the company has a purpose, because I think people like to work for a company that has a reason for being, that they can identify with and feel good about. I think that I have to communicate well with them everything that's going on and everything I'm trying to do in a clear way. And then in return I think they inspire me to think more adventurously and to think more carefully about how to inspire them and how to build a better business. So, it's sort of cooperation." Interviewer: "Do you think leaders are born or made?" Marjorie Scardino: "I think it's probably a bit of both. All human beings obviously are born with certain qualities, and certain common features. But I've seen so many people in my life who have, using those basic qualities, re-invented themselves several times as they've gone into new situations. You know, you're a certain kind of person when you're in school, and your friends know who you are. And then as you grow up you go into new situations and become somebody else. So, people who were never leaders in school become the great business leaders of our time. So, I would have to say, mostly it's made, but you have to use what you're born with." | ||||||||||||

All parents in England want to send their children to high school.But sending a child to a school is the first step that many parents find difficult to take.In theory,at least,the problem is that there are many choices to make.Let us try to list some of the alternatives (兩選一) between which parents are forced to decide.To begin with,they may ask themselves whether they would like their child to go to a singlesex school or a coeducational school.They may also consider whether the child should go to a school that is connected to a particular church or religious group,or whether the school should not have such connections.Another decision is whether the school should be one of the vast majority financed by the state or one of the very small but influential (有影響的) minority of private schools,though this choice is,of course,only available to the small number of those who can pay.Also connected with the question of money is whether the child should go to a boarding school or live at home.Then there is the question of what the child should do at school.Should it be a school whose curriculum (課程) lays emphasis,for example,on necessary skills,such as reading,writing and mathematics,or one which pays more attention to developing the child’s personality,morality,emotion and sociality.Finally,with dissatisfaction with conventional education as great as it is in some circles in England and certainly in the US,the question might even arise in the parents’minds as to whether the child should be forced (強(qiáng)迫) to go to school at all.Although in practice,some parents may not think twice about any of these choices and send their child to the only school available in the immediate neighborhood,any parents who are interested enough can insist that as many choices as possible be made open to them,and the system is theoretically (就理論上) supposed to provide them.
61.Parents in England find choosing a school hard because________.
A.there is a limited number of choices
B.some schools are very expensive
C.some schools are government schools
D.they are faced with a variety of offers
62.According to the passage,some parents,if allowed,might let their children stay at home because they________.
A.don’t find conventional education satisfactory (滿意的)
B.don’t know how to choose among different schools
C.intend to educate their children themselves
D.find conventional education too expensive to pay for
63.What is implied (暗指的) at the very end of the passage?
A.Most parents are unconcerned about the choices available to them.
B.Interested parents can request more school choices be open to them.
C.The educational system may not provide as many choices as expected.
D.Most parents usually send their children to the schools nearby.
