His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the jo

27、b of superintendent(监工）at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.When he arrived at New Lanark, it was a dirty little town with a population of 2， 000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers houses or their

28、childrens education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them.

29、 He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all，he fixed his mind on the childrens education. In 1816，he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owens factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns.

30、Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825，but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all，he believed

31、 that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical, too. If you give people good working conditions， he thought, they will work well and, the most important thing of all，if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people. ”56. For Owen, his great

32、est achievement in New Lanark was.A.improving workers housesB.helping people to save moneyC.preventing men from getting drunkD.providing the children with a good education57. From the passage we may infer that Owen was born.A. into a rich familyB. into a noble familyC. into a poor familyD. into a mi

33、ddle class family58. Owens experiment in the United States failed because.A.he lost all his moneyB.he did not buy enough landC.people who visited it were not impressedD.it was too far away for him to organize it properly59. We may infer form the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free e

34、ducationuntilA. 1771 B. 1816C. 1825D. 1860BNever go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shop- ping for food before lunchtime, you? 11 probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isnt enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers ne

35、ed an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, dont buy anything just because it?s cheaper than usual! New and Improved!” or “All Natural on the

36、front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of contents on the back. Third, compare prices： that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary

37、items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low

38、prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores arent very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low，but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in

39、 high-priced department stores.Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage： knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions： Is the

40、 advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.60. All the following statements are true about the p

41、hrase ordinary items in Paragraph 2 except_.A.ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brandsB.producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary itemsC.ordinary items never say New and Improved or “All NaturalD.the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands61. W

One of the authors suggestions to consumers is.A.to make use of advertisements carefullyB.to buy any ordinary items instead of famous brandsC.to buy high quality

43、items such as famous brands after lunchD.not to buy items with words like New and Improved or “All Natural63. The author implies that_.A.advertisements sometimes dont tell the truthB.discount clothing stores are only good places to go toC.going into the supermarket hungry, you may buy more than you

53、upils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can 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 the top grade ！Besides, it is rather unreal to grade pupils just according to

54、 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 person- al qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all

55、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 co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make deci

56、sions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively in order to have the ability to become leaders. 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 do this at their own

57、speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work： it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do

58、their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.67. We can know from the passage that the author? s attitude towards mixed-ability teaching is_.A. approvingB. criticalC. questioningD. inactive68. The underlined words held back in Paragraph 1 probably means_，A. d
