Life IX阅读理解（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）AAbout 21,000 young people in 17 American states do not go to classes in school buildings. Instead, they receive their school education 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 go to 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 cybershool called Common-wealth 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(技术的) services. Parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails through their computer 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 honor at their graduation. 61. What do we know from the text about students of a cyberschool? A. They have to take long bus rides to school. B.

Their equipment costs a lot of money. B. They get little support from the state government. C. It is hard to know students progress in learning. D. The students find it hard to make friends. 63. Cyberschools are getting popular because _. A. they are less expensive for students B. their students can work at their own speed C. their graduates are more successful in society D. they serve students in a wider age range(范围) 64. We can infer that the author of the text is _. A. unprejudiced(无偏见的) in his description(描述) of cyberschools B. excited about the future of cyberschools C. doubtful about the quality of cyberschools D. disappointed at the development of cyberschools 65. According to the text, which of the following statements is true? A. About 67% of the students in the USA go to cyberschools nowadays. B. Cyberschools will take the place of traditional schools in the future.C. Cyberschools are the most popular form of education now in the USA. D. Not everybody likes cyberschools. BCan dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly.
