We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched with mouth open in sur?prise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop(拖把).She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said,"Very dirty floors."
"Yes, I，m glad they've finally decided to clean them, ，， the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said,"But aren't you working late?"
Mum just pushed harder, each swipe(拖一下)of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.
After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed (鞠躬)politely to the nurse and said,"Thank you."

At a primary school in a small town in the east of South Carolina, second-grade teachers Garneau and Lynne are convinced that separating elementary-age boys and girls produces immediate academic improve?ment in both genders (性别).
David Chadwell, South Carolina's expert of single gender education says, "Boys and girls learn, hear and respond to their surroundings differently. We can teach boys and girls based on what we now know.，，
Male and female eyes are not organized in the same way, he explains. The organization of the male eye makes it sensitive to motion and direction. "Boys under?stand the world as objects moving through space, " he says.
The male eye is also drawn to cooler colours like silver and black. It's no accident that boys tend to create pictures of moving objects instead of drawing the happy-colourful family, like girls do in their classes.
The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to warmer colours like red, yellow and orange. To attract girls, Chadwell says, the teacher doesn't need to move as much as in boy's class. Using descriptive phrases and lots of colours in presentations or on the blackboard gets their attention.
Boys and girls also hear differently. "When some?one speaks in a loud tone, girls understand it as yelling, ，，Chadwell says. "They think you're mad and can shut down. " Girls are more sensitive to sounds. He advises girls' teachers to watch the tone of their voices. Boys' teachers should sound more forceful, even excited.
A boy's nervous system causes him to be more cau?tious when he is standing, moving, and the room tem?perature is around 69 degrees Fahrenheit. Stress in boys, he says, tends to increase blood flow to their brains ， a process that helps them stay focused. Girls are more focused when seated in a warmer room around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Girls also respond to stress differ?ently. When exposed to threat and conflict, blood goes to their guts (肠道)，leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.
These differences can be applied in the classroom, Chadwell adds. " Single gender programmes are about making the best use of the learning." 1. What is David Chadwell's attitude towards separating
elementary-age boys and girls while learning?
A. Supportive. B. Worried.
C. Concerned. D. Uninterested.
2. To attract boys in a class, the teacher .
A. must have a moving object in this hand
B. needs to wear clothes in a warm colour
C. has to speak politely
D. had better move constantly while teaching

4. Which of the following students is most likely to be focused?
A. A boy sitting in a warm room.
