On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience

15、 are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can also have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of

16、the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full , not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and

17、 social skills, and we find that mixed ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership shills. They also learn how to

18、 cope with personal problems as well as how to think, to make decisions, to analyze, and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can d

19、o this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when it is appropriate. In this case, it is the teachers who do the teaching, which happens in any traditional classrooms. We encourage our pupils to use the library too, and teach them the skills they need in order to do this effi

20、ciently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal. 31“We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils.” In this context, the word st

21、reaming means _.AevaluatingBgroupingClecturing Dmixing 32According to the passage, the students can develop all aspects of learning by _.Ausing the library Bworking in pairs Clearning from each other Dreceiving mixed ability teaching33Which of the following is NOT mentioned about group work?APupils

22、learn to cooperate.BPupils learn to develop their leadership skills.CPupils learn to participate in student teaching.DPupils learn to think and solve problems.34In Paragraph 4, formal class teaching probably means _.Alectures by the teacher Bdiscussion Cstudent teachingDlibrary work 35In this passag

23、e, the author is _ about streaming pupils.Adisconcerting Bpositive Cencouraging Dnegative Passage TwoI have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen, simply because I happened to be a customer. The more I go into shops and hotels, banks and post offices, railway stations, a

24、irports and the like, the more Im convinced that things are being run solely to suit the firm, the system, or the union. There seems to be something deceptive for the so-called “service” organizationStaff Before Service.How often, for example, have you queued（排队）for what seems like hours at the post

25、 office or the supermarket because there werent enough staff on duty at the checkout counters? Surely in these days of high unemployment it must be possible to hire cashiers and counter staff. Yet supermarkets claim that uncovering all their cash registers at any one time would increase cost. And th

26、e post office says we cannot expect all their Service counters to be occupied “at times when demand is low.”Its the same with hotels. Because waiters and kitchen staff must finish when it suits them, dining rooms close earlier or menu choice is cut short. As for us guests, we just have to put up wit

27、h it. There is also the nonsense of so many friendly hotel night porters having been thrown out of their jobs and replaced by machines. Not to mention the creeping threat of the tea-making kit in your room: a kettle with a mixed collection of teabags, plastic milk cartons and lump sugar. Who wants t

28、o wake up to a raw teabag? I dont, especially when I am paying for “service”.Can it be stopped, this sort of poor service, this growing attitude that the customer is always a nuisance? I eagerly hope so because its happening, sadly, in all walks of life. 36By saying “I have had just about enough of

29、being treated like a second-class citizen,” the writer means that he does not _.Aget a good job Bget any reward Cget good service Dget good medical treatment 37According to the passage, customers queue for a long time because _.Afewer people than needed are hired to work at the checkout counters Bth

30、e cashiers leave their counters from time to timeCthe cashiers work rather slowly Dthere are not enough cash registers38Fewer people are placed at the checkout counters simply because _.Aunemployment rate is highBthere are more cashiers than needed Cthose in business hire fewer people to save money

31、Donly a small number of people can be hired to work in the service industry 39The writer used to enjoy the service at the hotels provided by _but feels bad that they are out of service now.A machinesB portersC waitersD kitchen staff40 The writer talks about the service industry with rather a (n) _to

37、t to authors in the distant or 73 past. The writer of a dictionary is a historian, 74 a lawgiver. If, for example, we had been writing 75 dictionary in 1890, or even as late as 1919, we 76 have said that the word “broadcast” 77 “to scatter” (seed, for example), but we could not 78 laid down that from 1919 on the 79 common meaning of the word should become “to send out programs by radio or television.” To regard the dictionary 80 an “authority,” therefore, is to look upon the dictionary writ
