2.Singapore's schools have become global role models with high results in international tests.But now they want to move,beyond this-towards something that encourages creativity and what they term"holistic(全面的)education".![](http://thumb.1010pic.com/pic3/quiz/images/201708/5/58e0e340.png)
Minister of Education,Heng Swee Keat,says this is"less about content knowledge",but"more about how to process information".He describes this challenge of innovating(创新)as being about to"tell truth from untruth,connect seemingly different things,and create knowledge even as the situation changes".
This approach aims to prepare today's students for the demands of the next 20 years.It means that schools are under more pressure,and will be given more freedom,to come up with creative ways to teach students.So instead of the traditional impressions of high-pressure Asian schools,with rows of heads buried in books,they are trying different approaches to learning.
To put this into practice,on a sunny April morning,80 students from one of Singapore's top schools were traveling outdoors.The nine to ten-year-old from Rosyth School were on a"learning journey"in a park,with science topics and values such as caring for the environment.
"We are conducting a biopsy(活组织检查)to find out why a bee,a fish,a bird or a plant died strangely,"said one student."Is it because of human actions?"
They photographed"evidence"on smart phones and digital cameras,getting facts on plants and animal species."They can really learn through hands-on experience and putting things into action,"said moral education teacher,Joslyn Huang.
24.What are Singapore's schools famous for according to the passage?A
A.Test results.
B.Strict management.
C.Teaching methods.
D.Learning environment.
25.What does Singapore's"holistic education"lay emphasis on?B
A.Students'moral behavior.
B.Students'creative ability.
C.Students'content knowledge.
D.Students'hands-on experience.
26.Why did the 80students from Rosyth School conduct a biopsy?C
A.To improve the environment.
B.To protect animals and plants.
C.To study the relationship between human actions and some animals'death.
D.To find out the relationship between human behaviors and climate changes.
27.How did the author tell us about a different way of learning in Singapore's schools?A
A.By giving examples.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By listing figures.
D.By analyzing cause and effect.
