单选题We arrived in Naples on the Sunday night, and spent the night on the ship. The next morning we went ashore. We weren't leaving again till six o'clock that evening, so we had the day to see Naples. Well, we walked around the streets a bit, and looked at this and that. And then I wanted to see the ruins of Pompeii, of course. I saw a taxi, and we stopped it, and asked the taxi-driver to take us to Pompeii. He said something, and shook his head. We couldn't understand what was going on. You know what taxi-drivers are alike, all over the world. Eitherit's too far, or too close, or the wrong dis- trict, or they're just going home to dinner, or they don't know the place you are talking about, or they can only take you there if you pay a special rate. I tried to find out what the reason was this time, but I' m afraid my Italian isn't as good as it should be. Anyway, in the end he agreed to take us and finally we got there. He was right all along, though. Pompeii was closed. Apparent- ly everything in Italy closes on Mondays. It was a pity, because we only had Monday there, but never mind, I thought, we'll go some- where else instead. "Take us to see Vesuvius, then," I said. The taxi-driver shook his head again. "Don't tell me the volcanoes are closed as well," I asked. He nodded vigorously. Apparently they were.

单选题We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把...... 能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and not so bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyse and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.
