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.

单选题{{B}}D{{/B}} What's your idea of a good time? What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and fifty thousand other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants? It may sound strange but that is what many hundreds of thousands of young people in the UK do every summer. Why? Because summer is the time for outdoor music festivals. Held on a farm, the Glastonbury Festival is the most well-known and popular in the UK. It began in 1970 and was attended by one thousand five hundred people each paying an admission price of ￡ 1 -- the ticket included free milk from the farm. Since then the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength--in 2004 one hundred and fifty thousand fans attended, paying ￡ 112 for tickets to the three-day event. Tickets for the event sold out within three hours. Acts included veteran (老的、著名的) superstars, such as Paul McCartney and James Brown, as well as new talents, like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone. Although many summer festivals are run on a profit-making basis, Glastonbury is a charity event, donating millions of pounds to local and international charities (慈善事业). Glastonbury is not unique in using live music to raise money for global poverty. In July of this year, the Live 8 concerts were held simultaneously (同时) in London, Pads, Rome and Berlin. Superstars, such as Madonna, Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder performed in order to highlight international poverty and debt.

单选题 In every school there is a "top" crowd that sets the pace (速度), while the others follow their example. Let's say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright yellow sweaters. Pretty soon everybody is wearing a bright yellow sweater. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright yellow is rather unsuitable. The situation can even be- come dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at eighty miles an hour. Then the people who follow the example are endangering their very lives. They are like sheep being led to the butcher. Now, chances are that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, "Gee, the crowd does it." Well, let the crowd do it, but don't do it yourself. Learn to say "No!" Develop your own standards and your own judgments. If you know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove (不赞同), have the courage to {{U}}bow out{{/U}} politely. You'll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet. Remember this in your heart, you are the unique (独一无二的) one in the world, just be yourself.
