Later, working with poor children, she set up a “Children House” in Rome in 1907. The rooms were bright and colorful. This was the place where she developed the Montessori Method, which was formed during 1908-1913.Maria thought that children must be free to learn without being criticized(批评) or limited. She let the children make their own choice of what they wanted to do and work with their own speed, not the rest of the class or the teacher. As a result, children enjoy learning and this gives them confidence and makes them happy. The Montessori Method also teaches children skills to help them become independent. Very young children learn to dress themselves, to cook and to put their toys and clothes away. Its a way of teaching which encourages children to learn by doing and experimenting. Children are encouraged to repeat activities as often as they wish, and they develop their observation(观察) skills by doing different activities. In addition, the Montessori Method thinks that teacher is a guide, not a leader of the classroom, helping to open students eyes to wonder around them.A typical room in a Montessori school has many things children can use. The furniture is light so they can arrange it as they wish. Because the environment offers many activities, children like to work together and they develop a social life based on cooperation(合作)rather than competition.Maria Montessori travelled around the world to train teachers to use her method. In 1950, she received the World Peace Education Badges.（1）How old was Montessori when she became a doctor? A . 24B . 25C . 26D . 27（2）The underlined word “This” in paragraph 2 refers to_. A .

He was born in 1942. Hes a world well-known on space and time. Stephen is researching some very big questions, such as: How did the universe begin? How will it end?Stephen was a student at Oxford University. He studied math and science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became sick.

With this new way of thinking, he became one of the most famous scientists in the world. In 1991, he met the Pope(教皇) in Rome. They talked about his ideas. Then in 1998, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It sold more than 5.5 million copies in 33 different languages.

However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winners key to success.Winners are good at dealing with problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car checked more regularly. Or, you might start to carry the useful phone numbers with you, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague(同事) causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or dont depend on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners dont have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.（1）According to the passage, winners_ .A . have responsible and able colleaguesB . meet with fewer difficulties in their livesC . deal with problems instead of blaming others.D . blame themselves instead of others（2）The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to_ .A . 避免B . 接受C . 改善D . 考虑（3）When your colleague brings about a problem, you should_.A . find a better way to deal with the problemB . blame him for his lack of responsibilityC . tell him to find the cause of the problemD . ask a more able colleague for help.（4）Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A . A Winners Secret.B . A Winners Problem.C . A Winners Opportunity.D . A Winners Achievement.21. （10分）阅读理解Summer English at St Clare s. Oxford We offer holiday courses for teenagers in Oxford.
