in india. the people were poor. however, they were not unhappy. after all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. they told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frogs legs. however, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places. this seemed like money for nothing. there were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. all they had to do was catch them. agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. for the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. but the dream didnt last long.the change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. more worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.the villagers decided that they couldnt just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. they would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicines. soon there was no money left.then the people realized what was happening. it was the frog. they hadnt been useless. they had been doing an important job-eating insects. now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. they were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.now, the people are still poor. but in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. these sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.26. from paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers _.a. worked very hard for centuries b. dreamed of having a better lifec. were poor but somewhat content d. lived a different life from their forefathers27. why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?a. the frogs were easy money b. they needs money to buy medicinec. they wanted to please the visitors d. the frogs made too much noise28. what might be the cause of the childrens sickness?a. the crops didnt do well b. there were too many insectsc. the visits brought in

by working at home on computers. the center for education reform says the united states has 67 public “cyberschools”, and that is about twice as many as two years ago. the money for students to attend a cyberschool comes from the governments of the states where they live. some educators say cyberschools receive money that should support traditional public schools. they also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well.other educators praise this new form of education for letting students work at their own speed. these people say cyberschools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional schools. they say learning at home by computer ends long bus rides for children who live far from school.whatever the judgment of cyberschools, they are getting more and more popular. for example, a new cyberschool called commonwealth connections academy will take in students this fall. it will serve children in the state of pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen.children get free equipment for their online education. this includes a computer, a printer books and technical services. parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails through their computers when necessary.students at cyberschools usually do not know one another. but 56 such students who finished studies at western pennsylvania cyber charter school recently met for the first time. they were guests of honor at their graduation.29.whatdoweknowfromthetextaboutstudentsofacyberschool?a.theyhavetotakelongbusridestoschool.b.theystudyathomeratherthaninclassrooms.c.theyreceivemoneyfromtraditionalpublicschools.d.theydowellintraditionalschoolprograms.30.cyberschoolsaregettingpopularbecame_.a.theyarelessexpensiveforstudentsb.theirstudentscanworkattheirownspeedc.theirgraduatesaremoresuccessfulinsocietyd.theyservestudentsinawideragerange31.wecaninferthattheauthorofthetextis_.a.unprejudicedinhisdescriptionofcyberschoolsb.excitedaboutthefutureofcyberschoolsc.doubtfulaboutthequalityofcyberschooisd.disappointedatthedevelopmentofcyberschoolsc五选四阅读:
