【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Hello and welcome to our review- of the week's TV. With me today is Michael Stein... Michael, what did you think was the best programme of the week? M: Well, I've chosen the last programme in the Channel 4 series That'll Teach 'Em. What the programme did was to send a group of 30 16-year-old children—as an experiment—to a 1950s boarding school for one month. They recreated exactly the same conditions as in the 1950s—he same food, the same discipline, the same exams. The idea was to compare education today with education in the 1950s. W: I bet it was a shock for today's schoolchildren. M: Well, it was, of course. W: What was the worst thing for them? M: The food, definitely! They said it was cold and tasteless. W: What about the classes? M: Well, it was silence all the time during the lessons—only the teacher spoke, but curiously most of the kids found the lessons interesting. They had to work very hard though. W: So did they pass the 1950s exams? M: No. Most of them failed. W: So, do you think that means exams really used to be harder in the 1950s? M: No, I think the kids failed because exams in the 1950s were very different. The children in the programme will probably do very well in their own exams. On the other hand, 1950s children would probably find today's exams very difficult. Q: What do we learn about the last programme in the Channel 4 series That'll Teach 'Em?
