    Camp memories last forever! We make sure they are unforgettable!
     Shadow Ridge Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do.Unlike other camp
programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Shadow Ridge horses are the program! We are 100% horse from stable (马厩) management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.
     Horses help us achieve many of our aims.Girls can learn to develop responsibility, selfconfidence and
personal connections in their lives while having fun.Using horses as a wonderful tool for education, our
camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.
     Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take
care of.Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week.Our riding program provides a lot of riding
and lesson time.Campers will learn how to take care of the horse and the tack (马具), as well as how to
ride.Days are filled with horserelated activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse,
as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.
    At Shadow Ridge we try to create a loving, caring family atmosphere for our campers.We have "The
Bunkhouse"(4 girls), "The Wranglers Roost"(4 girls), and "The Hideout"(2 girls) in our comfortable 177
yearold farm house.All meals are home cooked, offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.
    Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child's vacation.Each child will receive a
camp Tshirt and a photo album (usually 300－500 pictures) of their stay at camp.
    Our camps are offered during June, July and August 2011, for small groups of girls aged 13－16

     Norah had a cottage on a cliff (悬崖) above a big bay. In winter it could be very unpleasant because
of strong winds and sea waves. In fact, when a gale was blowing, Norah and her husband got used to
sleeping in a small room downstairs, because their bedroom upstairs, which faced the gales, had a very
big window, and they were afraid that an extra violent wind might break it and blow pieces of broken
glass over them.
     Also, the salt wave from the sea put an end to many of the colorful plants Norah planted in her garden. She tried putting up a fence to protect them, but the wind just hit it, went up over the top and then down
the other side, so in the end she filled the garden with trees and bushes that liked salt.
But most of the summer Norah enjoyed her cottage and garden very much. At weekends she could sit
out-of-doors in the sun, looking at the beautiful view, with interesting ships and boats passing by, and she
could very easily cycle down to the sea for a swim.
     Now, Norah and her husband had plenty of friends and relations. In the summer lots of them used to
come to enjoy the beautiful place, and in the end it really became quite annoying for the couple. When
they were at home, they found friends and relations arriving, expecting to be given unlimited drinks and
meals, and to sit in the sun for hours, talking as if Norah and her husband had nothing else to do but
entertain and listen to them.
     This went on for several years. Norah didn't wish to appear rude by refusing to let her friends and
relations in, but on the other hand, she was getting tired every summer.
Then one day Norah was complaining about this to her hairdresser while she was doing her hair. "You're
disturbed by too many uninvited guests, are you?" said the hairdresser. "Why don't you try my way of
escaping?"
     "What's that?" asked Norah.
     "Well," the hairdresser answered, "when the bell rings, I put on my coat and take my shopping bag. If
it's someone I don't want to see, I say innocently, 'I'm sorry, but I've got to go out.' But…

      This was no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science or engineering professors
at Cornell University. They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual
experiment:"an interesting week of poetry." This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is
science difficult for many nonscience students? What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class
that is not in their field?
     The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes. They had reading tasks and had to
write three short papers. All students noticed one thing-the importance of spoken words. In science and
engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard. But in this poetry class, the
instructors just talked. They didn't write anything on the board.
     The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry. In both subjects, students
need to find layers (层次)　of meaning. Some layers are simple, clean, and on the surface; other layers are
deeper and more difficult. This search for different levels of meaning doesn't happen much in undergraduate
(本科)　science classes, but it is important later, in graduate school. And it is always important in humanities (人文科学).
     Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience.
One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using informative as he teaches. Most of the
scientists agreed on several points. First, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and
decide which information is important. Second, the poetry class was fun. One engineer decided, "We need to
change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students."
     But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this; All of the professors began to think
about how they teach and how they cam teach better.

1. What do we know about this unusual class?

A. The teachers did lots of writing on the board.
B. The teacher were invited to attend several lectures.
C. The student were professors from a university.
D. The students were studying science and humanities.

2. The experiment was designed to find out _____.

A. how to teach the students in the science class.
B. whether poetry is difficult for science students.
C. what to be taught in the humanities class.
D. why many humanities students find science hard.

3. Finding levels of meaning is _____.

A. important for graduate students in humanities.
B. difficult for graduate students in humanities.
C. common for undergraduate students in science.
D. easy for undergraduate students in science.

4. What did the science professors learn after the experiment?

A. They should change the way they teach .
B. A poem could be explained in clear definitions.
C. A poetry class could be more informative.
D. Their teaching was an enjoyable experience.
