The Internet Can Help Fund Your DreamCIn most countries in the world, governments require children to attend schools in which trained teachers are responsible for educating the children using an approved curriculum. However, a sharply increasing number of parents believe that it is much better for their children to be educated at home by the people who know them and their needs best. Today, it is estimated that about one million home schooled children in the United States and tens of thousands of other learners around the world are learning outside of school. Now that home schooling is growing worldwide, the real-world experiences of learners show that schools are not always necessary for learning.Therefore, an increasing number of parents are deciding that home schooling is the best option for their children. They are unhappy with the quality or depth of education offered in the schools, or have other reasons why they feel that conventional schools (some people would rather call “normal schools” or “traditional schools”) are not suitable for their children. One reason is social factors. Parents worry that their children will suffer from bullying(欺负) or will be forced into bad behavior by peer pressure. They believe that the good behavior they have taught the child will be lost in school. Another reason is concern over the quality of schooling available. Schools frequently have large classes and they are often under-funded and stuffed with teachers without sufficient knowledge of their subjects. In the third place, other parents may disagree with the aims of the school curriculum, preferring for academic, social or cultural reasons to keep their children separate.However, there are many arguments in favor of sending children to conventional schools. The first is that the children will be exposed to other children. And they will interact with each other and develop social skills. A second point is that the children will learn to function outside the family. They will not be dependent on their parents for their educational, emotional and social needs. A third point is that the children will find it easier to integrate (融入) when they finish school, as they eventually will, when they start work or college.All in all, while many parents work hard to teach their children at home, conventional schools are still the right choice for most children. Schools are not perfect, but they seem to be a proven way of preparing our children for the real world. After all, education is not only about learning facts and figures, but also about learning how to survive socially.61. It seems that more and more people come to realize that ______.A. teachers should know their students‟ needs better.B. children should be educated at school.C. children should learn by themselves.D. children should be educated at home.62. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The reasons why parents choose home schooling.B. Parents care much for their young children.C. Parents are forced to accept home schooling.D. The quality of education at conventional school is bad.63. Which of the following is most likely to be the disadvantage of conventional schools according to the parents who choose home schooling?a. The children will make bad friends.b. The children may behave badly.c. There is a lot of academic pressure.d. There are too many students in a class.A. a, bB. a, dC. b, cD. b, d64. One of the advantages of the conventional schools is that the students ______.A. have to meet each other every dayB. will be independent of their educational needsC. can develop their practical skillsD. have a better chance of going to college65. According to this passage, the author's attitude towards conventional schooling is ________.A. disapprovingB. supportiveC. puzzledD. suspicious第II卷（非选择题，共35分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the Internet, or when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities.Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smartphone, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. Some health care systems in the United States now offer Virtual Urgent Care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home.Diana Rae is a nurse educator in the western state of Washington. She recently demonstrated how Virtual Urgent Care works. She used an iPad tablet and Skype — the video chat service.“Hi, yes, my name is Doctor Ben Green, among the doctors with Franciscan Virtual Urgent Care.”Doctor Green has the patient describe her symptoms. Then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is an infection. For medicine, he advises penicillin, a common antibiotic drug for viruses. He says about 3 out of 4 patients who have health problems can be treated like this — through Virtual Urgent Care, which means a video chat could replace a visit to the doctor‟s office.The Franciscan Health System is based in Tacoma, Washington. Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call, that is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctor‟s office or an urgent care clinic.After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says she would be happy to pay the 35 dollars, when she was recently home with a bad cold. “I would‟ve paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else‟s germs.” Rae said.But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with development in telemedicine. The workers who provide Virtual Urgent Care must be licensed separately in each state where the company does business. For now, that means Franciscan doctors can treat patients in Washington state and California, for example, but not in neighboring Oregon or Idaho.71.
