It is commonly believed that all over the world, boys and girls attend a mixed school, where they study together. But boys schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions（情感） and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.

Always boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和……相符) the ＂boy code＂ of hiding their emotions to be a ＂real man＂.

Surprisingly, the findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.

George Carl, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.

The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.

But in single-sex schools teachers can adjust lessons to boys’ learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the study’s author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.

Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with ＂boy-focused＂ approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute eye, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given ＂hands-on＂ lessons where they are allowed to walk around. ＂Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine(女性的) and prefer the modern genre (类型) in which violence and sexism are major themes,＂ James wrote.

Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel that they had to be ＂masterful and in charge＂ in relationships. ＂In mixed schools, boys feel forced to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means,＂ the study reported.

1.Traditionally, in a mixed school ,boys __________.

A. behave more responsibly B. perform relatively better

C. grow up more healthily D. receive a better education

2.The writer argues that a single-sex school would __________.

A. encourage boys to express their emotions more freely

B. help boys to be more competitive in schools

C. force boys to be their emotions to be ＂real men＂

D. naturally strengthen boys’ traditional image of a man

3.In Abigail James’ opinion, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is ______.

A. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in

B. boys can focus on their lessons without being distracted

C. teaching can be adjusted to suiting the characteristics of boys

D. teaching can be designed to promote boys’ team spirit

4.The underlined word ＂acute＂ in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______ .

A. lovely B. serious

C. sharp D. dull

Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities).Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.

Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to "read" people from another culture as we would "read" someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions.

Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.

It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of "reading" the other person incorrectly.

1.What does the smile usually mean in America?

A. Love. B. Politeness.

C. Joy. D. Thankfulness.

2.The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .

A. show friendliness to strangers

B. be used to hide true feelings

C. be used in the wrong places

D. show personal habits

3.What should we do before attempting(尝试) to "read" people?

A. Learn about their relations with others.

B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.

C. Find out about their past experience.

D. Figure out what they will do next.

4.What would be the best title for the test?

A. Cultural Differences

B. Smiles and Relationship

C. Facial Expressiveness

D. Habits and Emotions

As an effect of the high fuel prices spent on bus transportation, some American schools are changing to a four-day week. That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule.

Having been approved for three years and beginning in the fall, students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota will be in school from Tuesday to Friday. Each school day will be 65 minutes longer. Officials say the district expects to save about sixty-five thousand dollars a year in transportation costs.

In new Mexico, the first school district changed to a four-day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott(抵制). Now, 17 out of 89 districts use it.

In Custer, South Dakota, students have been going to school four days a week since 1995. Superintendent Tim Creal says the change has saved about one million dollars over just the past eight years. He sees other benefits, too. Students get more instructional time, and activities that used to take up class time are now held on non-school days. He says that in the future, the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school. High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes.

A four-day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers, but working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day.

1.According to Tim Creal, what makes it possible to have even fewer days in school?

A. The increasing number of private tutors.(私人教师)

B. The development of teaching methods.

C. The increase in the number of online classes.

D. The growth in the income of Americans.

2.It can be learned from the passage that______

A. students will be in school from Monday to Tuesday.

B. four-day week was first carried out in South Dakota.

C. Maccray will save one million dollars every year.

D. Minnesota state has approved the four-day week plan

3.The passage is mainly about______

A. some school’s four-day week plan

B. districts using a four-day week.

C. how to save on transportation fees.

D. expense of school transportation.

A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes,as a rule,to have it retold in almost the same words,but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts.It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book,and,if a parent can produce what,in the actual situation of the time and the child,is an improvement on the printed-text,so much the better.

A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking.To prove the latter,one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not.As to fears,there are,I think,some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story.Often,however,this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.

There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true,that giants, witches（女巫）,two-headed dragons,magic carpets,etc.do not exist;and that,instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales,the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history.If I find such people,I must say so strange that I do not know how to argue with them.If their cases were reasonable,the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.

No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.

1.In the author's opinion,when is a fairy story more effective?

A. It is treated as a joke.

B. It is set in the present.

C. It is repeated without any change.

D. It is made some changes by the parent.

2.According to the passage,great fear can take place in a child when the story is .

A. heard for the first time B. in a realistic setting

C. repeated too often D. told in a different way

3.What advantage does repeating fairy stories to young children bring?

A. It develops their power of memory.

B. It makes them less fearful.

C. It encourages them not to have strange beliefs.

D. It makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of.

4.Which is one of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales?

A. Fairy tales are not interesting.

B. Fairy tales are full of imagination.

C. Fairy tales just make up the stories which are far from the truth.

D. Fairy tales make teachers of history difficult to teach.
