Tyler, one of the most famous men in American education. Born in Chicago in 1902, _21_ and schooled in Nebraska, the _22_ college graduate Ralph Tyler became hooked on teaching while teaching as a science teacher in South Dakota and changed his _23_ from medicine to education. Graduate work at the University of Chicago found him connected with honorable educators Charles Judd and W. W. Charters, whose ideas of teaching and testing had an effect _24_ his later work. In 1927, he became a teacher of Ohio State University where he _25_ developed a new method of testing.Tyler became well-known in 1938, _26_ he carried his work with the Eight-Year Study from Ohio State University to the University of Chicago at the invitation of Robert Hutchins.Tyler was the first director of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford, a position he _27_ for fourteen years. There, he firmly believed that researchers should be free to seek an independent（独立的）spirit in their work. _28_ Tyler officially retired in 1967, he never actually retired. He served on a long list of educational organizations in the United States and abroad.

But is it really possible to get more _22_ your time off? Not just making this time more productive, but actually making it more enjoyable. The answer goes against what many of us _23_ about how to spend our free time. From early childhood weve been taught to divide everything _24_ into two groups, work and leisure. Work consists of all the things we need to do and leisure is everything _25_. Dividing the world this way isnt necessarily wrong. _26_ the subtle message contained in this division is that work and leisure are different. Your work needs to be productive, efficient and challenging. Therefore leisure should be relaxing, accomplish _27_ and be free of pressures. The problem is this opinion, that work should be the _28_ of leisure, ruins your free time. The belief _29_ the most enjoyable moments of life are spent relaxing in the fruits of our labor doesnt match the real world. Research has shown that the most _30_ moments of our life are the ones when we are most engaged.21. B. many 22. A. out of 23. D. have been taught 24. B. to do 25. C. else 26. A. But 27. D. nothing28.

By the end of June all major online forums will be monitored. _7_ is an important step, especially to protect minors from sexually explicit websites.To do these laws will be a major challenge since a safe Internet society involves both the creation of websites and their use. In the information age, it is extremely difficult for an individual nation to control online message, which, _8_ a large extent, is internationalized. Law enforcement agencies from around the world have worked together - the Virtual Global Task Force to _9_ down online purveyors of child pornography.Much more work must be done to make cyberspace a safe place for its users, _10_ children.21.

The youngest, who was not 23 ambitious (野心勃勃的), took no part in their argument. As soon as they left home, the father arranged for an adequate income to be provided for 24 of them, but insisted that apart from this they were to be financially self-supporting. The 25 twin, who had the advantage of good looks and a striking personality, decided that he would take up the stage 26 a career. He 27 a small repertory company, acted in minor parts, was always unpunctual (不准时) at rehearsals and was accordingly 28 with his fellow-actors.

The lecturer speaks for one or two hours, perhaps 21 the talk with slides, writing up important information on the blackboard, 22 reading material and giving out assignment. The new student sees the other students continuously writing on notebooks and 23 what to write. Very often the student leaves the lecture with notes which do not catch the main points and 24 become hard even for the students to understand.Most institutions provide courses which assist new students to develop the skills they need to be 25 listeners and note-takers. If these are unavailable, there are many useful study-skills guides which 26 learners to practice these skills independently. In all cases it is important to 27 the problem before actually starting your studies.It is important to acknowledge that most students have difficulty 28 acquiring the language skills required in college study.

You can only find reading materials badly 22 there-some are too strange for anyone to believe, 23 are frightening stories of something even worse. However, many of the young students are getting absorbed in such poisonous reading, which costs them what they should pay for their breakfast and bring them nightmares and immoral ideas 24 return.
