The Tutorial System of Oxford University
In the University of Oxford,teaching is conducted primarily through the tutorial system.It is one of the most unique and well-known methods of teaching across the world.
The weekly tutorial consists of a one-hour meeting between the tutor and small numbers of students (usually two to four).During this time,an essay prepared specifically for that tutorial is read by students and commented upon by the tutor.At the end of the tutorial,the tutor will assign the topic of study for the coming week and suggest readings.(67)B Meanwhile,they are also complemented by departmental lectures which are conducted on a university wide basis,lab work,and seminars (研讨会) often with groups of perhaps 10students.
Tutorials have gained their reputation because of the close relationship they maintain between the tutor and the student.The tutorial system provides undergraduates with direct and in most cases weekly contact with tutors in their academic fields.(68)F
Before the weekly tutorial,students are required to prepare an essay or other works,which they read or present to the tutor.During each tutorial,students are expected to communicate,debate,analyze and critique the ideas of others as well as their own in conversations with the professor and fellow-students.The tutorial system has great value that it creates learning and assessment opportunities which are highly authentic (可靠的) and difficult to fake,as the student's work is discussed on the spot.
(69)A The contrast between tutorials and large lectures common in the American universities is obvious.In the typical American university,students are taught by the same specialists,in the same manner,and held to the same standards.
However,during tutorials,students have the opportunity to explore their own ideas directly with experts in particular subjects.(70)C As a result,students must engage in extensive independent reading and research,using the resources available,under the guidance of the tutor.
18.Teary-Eyed Stories from Strangers
The Man at the Market
When the supermarket clerk summed up my groceries,It was 12overwhatIhadonme.Ibegantoremoveitemsfromthebags,whenanothershopperhandedmea20 bill."Please don't put yourself out,"I told him.
"Let me tell you a story,"he said."My mother is in hospital with cancer.I visit her every day and bring her flowers.I went this morning,and she got mad at me for spending my money on more flowers.She demanded that I do something else with that money.So,here,please accept this.It is my mother's flowers."
A Family's Food Angel
Since my mother lost her job,our family troubled new worries:no income,the same bills,and no way to afford groceries.It was around this time that she started finding boxes of food outside our door every morning.This went on for months,until she was able to land a job.We never did find out who it was and who left the groceries for us,but they truly saved our lives.
Seven Miles For Me
Leaving a store,I returned to my car only to find that I'd locked my keys and cell phone inside.A teenager riding his bike saw me kick a tire and say a few choice words."What's wrong?"he asked.
I explained my situation."But even if I could call my wife,"I said,"she can't bring me her car key,since this is our only car."He handed me his cell phone."Call your wife and tell her I'm coming to get her key."
"That's seven miles round trip."
"Don't worry about it."
An hour later,he returned with the key.I offered him some money,but he refused."Let's just say I needed the exercise,"he said.Then,like a cowboy in the movies,he rode off into the sunset.
Breaking Bread
Last December,before work,I stopped at a deli (熟食店) and ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese.It was toasty warm,and I couldn't wait to dig in.But as I left the store,I noticed an older indigent gentleman sitting at the bus stop.Knowing it would probably be his only warm meal of the day,I gave him the bagel.
But all was not lost for me.Another customer from the deli offered me half of her bagel.I was so delighted because I realized that in one way or another,we are all looked after.

5.Benjamin Franklin was born into a large family.His father,Josiah,was a candle maker.His father wanted him to take over the family business when he grew up,but he wasn't interested.To help Ben decide on a career,Josiah took him on long walks around Boston so he could observe men doing the work of their trade.Benjamin learned how to do many things during these excursions,but he didn't want to pursue(追求,追赶) any of the trades.
When Ben was twelve years old his father sent him to his older brother James,who was a printer.Ben worked twelve hours a day in the printing shop,but still found time to educate himself.Though he only had two years of formal schooling,he taught himself foreign languages and read books on grammar,science,and math.
Later Ben went to Philadelphia.He started his own successful printing business and published a newspaper.People frequently quote(节选) from his sayings such things as,"Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy,wealthy,and wise"and"A penny saved is a penny earned".
He invented the Franklin stove(炉子) which provided better heat for their homes.He refused to patent the Franklin stove and the lightning rod because he thought more people would benefit from the inventions if he did not patent them.
He proved that lightning and electricity are the same thing using a kite,string,and key in a thunderstorm.His experiments earned him fame.He was also awarded honorary degrees from Harvard and Yale even though he lacked formal schooling.He also worked to put an end to slavery in America long before others took up the cause.Some say when he died in 1790 the whole world went into mourning.20,000people honored him at his funeral in Philadelphia.

3.Reading with Rover is a reading program where children read to dogs.In addition to Reading with Rover,which is based on Washington state,there are many such reading programs around the country.The goal of all these programs is to improve the reading skills of children with reading problems by having children read to dogs.
    When reading aloud in the classroom,many children with reading problems and poor reading skills feel frightened.They have little confidence in themselves and are afraid of being laughed at.They may also feel that reading is difficult,boring and stressful.However,when children read to dogs,reading becomes a fun and non-stressful experience for both the children and the dogs.Dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
    Reading with Rover and other programs like it have been a huge success,resulting in improved reading skills for a significant number of participating children with reading problems.In addition to making learning enjoyable,when children read to dogs,it increases their sense of worth and self-confidence.
    As part of the Reading with Rover program,the children read to dogs that are registered therapy dogs.These are dogs that have been trained and tested.Along with their owners,these dogs have become registered therapy teams.
    A recent research study was conducted by the University of California,which concluded that when children read to dogs,it can increase their reading skills by thirty percent.
    Children who took part in this study remarked,"I feel relaxed when I am reading to a dog because I am having fun.""The dogs don't care if you read really badly so you just keep going."
    When children read to dogs and improve their reading skills,it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society.

Because dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
58.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?(no more than 12 words)The benefits of Reading with Rover and other programs like it.
