A

Charter schools operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools.In the United States the rules for charter schools differ from state to state.But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what to teach and how to teach it.

A charter school might be independent or connected to the local public school system.It might be started by teachers,parents or,in some cases,a profit-making business.It sets up the goals of the school and other details like how student performance will be measured.And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network(GCSN).The idea is to have environmentally friendly school buildings but also to go further than that.

The schools teach students to be concerned with community issues(社区事务)that affect them and the environment.For example,young children grow crops in a school garden and learn about healthy eating.Older students help recycle waste from the cafeteria.And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.

Jim McGrath is president of the GCSN.He says there are about two hundred“green”charter schools across the United States.The plan is to also include traditional public schools as well as private schools.“The most important thing is that every one of us—every child,every adult—has a responsibility that our action,every action we make has an effect on the earth that we live in.And that our natural resources are never unlimited.And that if we want a positive earth for future generations,we all need to make commitments to be change agents so that we don't destroy our natural resources,”said Jim McGrath.

The GCSN holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota.Supporters of green schools say

their goal is to expand the movement across the country.

President Obama is encouraging moms to make their education a priority.While encouraging people of all ages to seek higher education,Obama is particularly targeting working moms with his Scholarships for Moms program.The Scholarships for Moms program builds on the federal government's long-standing offer of Pell Grants.To encourage more mothers to return to school,the Obama administration is now making some changes.

For the Scholarships for Moms program,the biggest incentive is the amount of money being offered.The maximum amount awarded through Pell Grants is about $4,000 per student,but for mothers who apply to the program,that amount is increased to $5,000.The aim of these grants is to allow working moms to return to school and earn a degree that allows them to better provide for their families now and in the future.In addition,the administration hopes that equipping_mothers to earn more money as working professionals will also be a stimulus to the economy.

In addition,a great incentive for moms considering this program is that it applies to enrollment in nearly any type of higher education institution.Four-year universities as well as smaller community colleges,are covered.You can go to a private school or a public one.An option for busy moms who can't stay on campus is to study through online courses. Basically the government's Scholarships for Moms program is a comprehensive attempt to get mothers who are keen on study back into the classroom.

With the Obama scholarship,the worry of returning to school is removed.In almost any area of interest,working moms can earn a degree.This means they can be fully equipped to provide for their families.Higher education no longer has to be an unfulfilled wish or an unobtainable goal.The Scholarships for Moms program was designed to help create a brighter future for mothers and their children.

【解题导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。美国总统奥巴马为了鼓励妈妈们接受深造,对妈妈奖学金作出了改进,这些激励措施包括提高奖学金额度,扩大就读的学校范围和拓宽学习方式等,其目的是扩大妈妈们的生存空间和提高其养家糊口的能力。

16.From the first paragraph we can know that ________.

A.people of all ages go to college in America

B.Obama values mom's education very much

C.moms should try to support their families

D.many mothers refuse to go to school now

答案B[推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Obama is particularly targeting working moms with his Scholarships for Moms program”等信息可以推知,奥巴马总统重视对妈妈们的教育。]

17.More money is offered by the Scholarships for Moms program in order to ________.

A.help mothers to make a living

B.inspire people to learn from others

C.persuade more students to work harder

D.encourage moms to go back to school

18.The underlined phrase “equipping mothers”(in Paragraph 2)probably refers to mothers who ________. A.have a degree B.are dressed well

C.stay at home D.own much money

A.they can make more money at school

B.the university lasts as long as four years

C.there are more chances for them to choose

D.they like the atmosphere in the classroom

【参考范文】

A class meeting was held in our class last Wednesday.At the meeting we classmates had a heated debate on “whether we should help the old people up when they fall over.”

Some classmates think we have responsibility to help them,because we Chinese have fine traditions to help people in trouble.Others have quite different opinions.They think we should leave a distance off and help to call 120,because in recent years many lawsuits have happened due to helping old people.The helpers had to pay the injurer a lot of money.

In my opinion,when we help the old people,we should depend on specific situation.When the old people is in great danger and badly needs help,we should give an immediate first aid and help to send him or her to the nearest hospital.When the old man is slightly injured,we'd better help to call the police.

John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed eviden ce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deat hs that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.

-必修 5 Unit 2 The United Kingdom Reading PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can clarify this question if you study British history. First there was England. Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well. Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to "Great Britain". Happily this was accomplished without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way. However, the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack. To their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the currency and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup! England is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, nationwide, these cities are not as large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture. The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the centre of national

4.阅读理解. They baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉). Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视)starts to lose its focus — until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world? Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots. 1. The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s__. A. sense of hearing B. sense of sight C. sense of touch D. sense of smell 2. Babies are sensitive to the change in______. A. the size of cards B. the colour of pictures C. the shape of patterns D. the number of objects 3. Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats? A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment. B. To see how babies recognize sounds.
