单选题Kindergarten students are typically four or five years of age. In class, they are introduced to the alphabet, numbers, and colors; they study their bodies, their, families, and their communities; they listen to stories lead aloud; they make art projects; and they learn about holidays, plants, animals, and other topics in science and social studies. Some kindergartens also teach introductory reading and mathematical skills. Kindergartens tend to offer children a foundation for the development of social skills, self-confidence, motivation, and the process of knowing. The first kindergarten was started by German educator Friedrich Froebel in 1837 in Blankenburg, Prussia (now part of Germany). Froebel chose the German term kindergarten (children's garden) because he intended children in his school to grow as freely as flowers in a garden. Frocbel's kindergarten was based on the then idea that children's play was significant. At the time. almost no children under the age of seven attended school, but Froebel designed his kindergarten for children between the ages of three and seven. The kindergarten became widely admired for its revolutionary teaching methods, and Froebel's followers soon established other kindergartens based on his educational philosophy, Froebel developed his own ideas about education by combining his belief in scientific observation with his belief in the interconnection of all things. In addition. Froebel was concerned that the spread of industrialization would negatively affect the family, but he believed that. kindergartens could increase the status of mothers and children. Froebel's ideas became increasingly popular in the 1840s, but because kindergartens were associated with liberalism and free-thinking, they were banned by the Prussian government after the failure of the liberal revolution of 1848.

单选题When people print a stamp, any error made on a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. More than one hundred years ago in the British colony of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean, the mistake was made. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer—Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps. Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius"s Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps. He accidentally inscribed the words "Post Ofrice" instead of "Post Paid" on the several hundred stamps that he printed. Today there are only 26 of these misprinted stamps left—14 One Penny OrangeReds and 12 Two Penny Blues. Because of the Two Penny Blues" rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as $16,800 for it.
