They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school; no matter how much the teacher knows, he cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teachers job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式).It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didnt get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions at what they read and they did thousands of experiments.（1）What do many people go to school for?A . Teaching.B . Books.C . Learning languages.D . An education（2）The teachers job is to teach _.A . everything the students want to knowB . students everything he knowsC . students some facts or formulasD . students the methods of learning（3）Einstein, Newton and Galileo did so many things for mankind because _.A . they learned a lot at schoolB . they learned everything inside and outside schoolC . they were so usefulD . they went to college and learned from professors16. （8分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。For thousands of years, people have lived with dogs. Ancient paintings on the walls of caves show people living with dogs. Almost a third of the homes in the United States and England have dogs, and these dogs come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes,The largest dog in the world was a dog named Zorba. When Zorba, a mastiff, was seven years old in 1989, he was 94 centimeters (37inches) tall. In other words, Zorba was more than half as tall as an adult man. At his largest, Zorba weighed more than a heavy weight boxer at 156 kilometers (343 pounds).In comparison, the smallest dog was a Yorkshire terrier from England. This dog was only the size of a matchbox, measuring 7.1 centimeters (2.8 inches) tall and 9.5 centimeters (3.75 inches) from nose to tail. It weighed about as much as a common book, and even a young child could easily pick it up with one hand. It passed away in 1945 when it was only two years old.Some dogs are wonderful, not for their sizes, but for their brains. One incredible(难以置信的)dog is Parton who has used a wheelchair since a car accident in 1991.In 2001, Parton was hit by a car while crossing a road with Endal, and thrown out of his chair. Endal quickly moved Parton into the recovery place, covered him with a blanket(毯子), and pushed his mobile phone close enough for him to reach. Then, once he saw that Parton was all right, Endal ran back and forth to a nearby hotel, barking until people came out to help.Endal was rewarded for his bravery by being awarded a medal, and he has been the subject of a number of TV documentaries.（1）Why do people have dogs as pets? A . Dogs used to live in caves.B . Dogs are easy to be taken care of.C . Dogs come in all shapes and sizes.D . The passage doesnt tell us about it.（2）The underlined word “mastiff” in Paragraph 2 probably means _A . a kind of paintingB . a kind of dogC . a place in EnglandD . a kind of accident（3）The worlds smallest dog weighed half as much as _ according to the passage.A . a childs handB . a matchboxC . a common bookD . a car（4）What is the right order that Endal saved Parton according to the passage?a.
