with their teachers.at first, i didnt think i needed to be “on” during lunch, since it was technically a free time for students. however, i was surprised to learn that even in a classroom with fewer students, social segregation (隔离) happened. the entire class crowded around a table just to avoid one or two other students sitting by themselves on the other side of the room. students refer to one as the “cool” one and another as the “loser”. there were only three tables.after witnessing this, i made a new classroom rule. every day at lunch, we would put all the tables together and everyone including me would sit around the big table. students could sit wherever they wanted at the table. this way, no one was excluded from the group.at first, there was much grumbling at this. but gradually the complaining stopped. students who didnt usually talk to each other during free time started to share conversations. students were occasionally requested to bring something for others to taste. this started a new tradition: weekly food sharing.in other situations, students make unpleasant comments about their classmates food, but not during these lunches. students were careful to thank the sharer, even if they didnt like the offering. many students tried a food they had never tried before and some cooked a family recipe with their parents for the first time.eating together gave us the opportunity to practice social graces (社交风度). students learned to ask about and respect each others food choices. they also gained knowledge about their classmates lives and cultures by tasting each others food and practicing open-mindedness.56. at the beginning, the author didnt eat in the classroom with his students because he _.a. was very busy with his work b. didnt want to eat with themc. wanted to let them feel free d. needed to eat with other teachers57. what can be inferred from the result of the new classroom rule?a. students got along better with each otherb. students were against eating togetherc. students could eat more food than befored. students liked the food brought by others58. what would be the best title of the text?a. my new classroom rule b. eating with the studentsc. my unforgettable school lifed. the importance of sharingbchild care programs help us work towards the future of our children, and right from the time they are born until they graduate. it is our job to look for the best educational programs. one of the most important things of a good child care program or child day care is the teacher to child ratio (比率). it means that every student needs a certain amount of attention in order to grow and learn correctly.its for this reason that small-sized class in schools are leading to bigger and better opportunities. with smaller classes, each student is given personal attention when it comes to their class work, their personal health and their mental growth.when there are too many children in a class, individuals get lost in the crowd. they always couldnt get enough attention. when it comes to the educational result, they dont learn well because some are afraid to ask questions in front of so many people. others become lazy for not having been attended by the teacher.some schools are overcrowded these days. most children dont even get their basic educational work done in schools. how is one expected to grow into a successful , healthy adult if the basics are not done? for these and several other reasons, schools with small class sizes are turning out to be very good for children.diana autumn is director of anne sullivan school. the excellent teachers here often attend different courses and workshops to stay on top of the latest research in education, and the school pays more attention to its interactive (互动的) classrooms and small-sized classes.59. according to the first paragraph, it is parents job to _. a. take good care of their children b. form the childrens attitudes to learning c. choose the right place for their children to live in d. choose the best educational conditions for their children60. the author believes that childrens education should be _. a. focused b. interesting c. very strict d. free of charge61. it can be inferred from the text that diana autumn _. a. is the author of the text b. encourages new teaching ideas in her school c. cares little about childrens school education d. prefers carrying out the traditional teaching methodscin recent years, the number of black bears in the us has risen. forests once cleared for farming have started to grow back and black bears have returned to them. but the bears are finding that their forest habitat has changed. instead of thick forests covering thousands of acres, bears now have neighbors nearby. roads, homes, schools, and shopping centers have been built at the edge of their forest home. and with humans and bears trying to share the same space, problems arise.black bears usually prefer to avoid people, but their nose may lead them into trouble. their normal diet consists of nuts, insects, and plants. but given the opportunity, they will gladly help themselves to whatever is available.with the great sense of smell, the bears can sniff out a tasty treat 2 or 3 miles away. food left out in a park or backyard is an invitation to dinner. and while raiding (劫掠) a cooler, bird feeder, trash can, car, or even a home, they can do a lot of damage. when that happens, people get angry. if another solution doesnt immediately appear, they often want the bears killed.bear aware, bear wise, and bear smart are trying to keep that from happening. they want people to respect bears, nor fear them, and are suggesting ways to reduce the chances of bears stopping by for a snack. theyre convincing people that by following some simple steps, its possible to live peacefully with our wild neighbors.62. more black bears have appeared in the us because_.a. forests have increased in the usb. farmers have grown more foodc. people stopped killing black bearsd. roads were built nearer to the forests63. we learn from the text that black bears_.a. eat different food b. hate insects in forestsc. usually live in

its smelld. to refuse something in a proud way65. why are people angry according to the third paragraph?a. food was left everywhereb. black bears damage their thingsc. they cant find a black beard. people are not allowed to kill bears.66. what is bear wise?a. an organization that protects bearsb. a special name for black bearsc. a kind of food for bearsd. a place in the usdit is a finding which is certain to be hotly discussed. according to the latest research, women are brighter than men. for the first time in iq testing, psychologists have found that female scores have risen above those of men.since iq testing began a century ago, women have been as much as five points behind. but that gap has been narrowing in recent years and this year women have moved ahead, according to james flynn, leader of the research.“in the last 100 years the iq scores of both men and women have risen but womens have risen faster,” said mr. flynn. “this is a consequence of modernity, which is making our brains adapt (适应) and raising our iq.”one possible explanation is that womens lives have become more demanding as they multitask (同时处理) between raising a family and doing a job. another is that women have a slightly higher potential intelligence than men and are only now realizing it.mr. flynn, who will publish his findings in a book, said more data was needed to explain the trend. “the full effect of modernity on women is only just starting,” he added.he compared iq result from countries in western europe and from the united states, canada, new zealand, argentina and estonia. these showed that in westernized countries the gap in scores between men and women had become minimal (最小).the data for making comparison was limited and could be carried out for only a few countries. it included australia, where male and female iqs were found to be almost the same. in new zealand, estonia and argentina, women scored slightly more than men.mr. flynn said, “as the world gets more complex, people are adapting.” he added, “i suspect that the same trends are happening in britain, although the data is too limited to be true.”67. what would be the best title for the text?a. the history of iq testingb. the modernity of the worldc. women overtake men in iq testing d. women are becoming stronger than men68. on iq tests in the past_.a. women were brighter than men b. women were
