【题目】Answer the questions.

I’m not allowed to stay out late

Why do I have to do my homework before I can watch TV

My parents never let me go to parties

Why is it just mum and Dad who make the rules? Life’s just not fair

Do these compalints sound familiar” well, if you think your life is hard, you might like to think about kids in ancient times. For some of them, life was quite hard.

In ancient Greece, only the boys are allowed to go to school. Greek girls stay at home, where their mother taught them sklls like cooking and weaving--things that would help them find a husband.

At the age of seven, some boys were sent to very strick military school, where they were taught become soliders. Nearly everything in their educational system was about war and battle. Life was pretty hard at there schools. For example, the kids were often hungry. The teachers didn’t let them have much food. But if they got caight, they were punished(惩罚)。

A ztec children in central America also had a difficult life in ancient times. If they broke rules, they could expect some pretty curl punishment.

On the goof side, Aztecs believed in the importace of schooling. In the home, children learn practical skills: dads taught their sons how to fish and farm while mothers taught their daughters home-making skills. Girls and boys also wnet to school(although the adults didn’t let them go to the same schools)

Kids went to schools called telpochcalli. They had lessons about history, religion and music. The boys had lessons to learn how to fight. If the children were from more important family, they went to a calmecac where they learned how to read and write, too.

At both schools childen had to be on their best behaviour. They knew all about the punishment for behaving badly, and life was hard enough anyway.

1The complaints aren’t mainly about rules, are they?

2Why did Greek girls learn skills like cooking and weaving?

3What did the Greek boys at military school probably do to survive for themselves?

4Who were calmecac school for?

5What did the boys in telpochalli learn?

6Who do you think have a harder life, children in the past or today? Give your reaons.

Going to a boarding school is a new experience full of excitement of the unknown. Socialization is a big thing for students and it is common to feel a little uncomfortable going into a situation where everyone is a stranger. You may probably miss your friends from former school. Trying actively to find new friends can help ease the feeling of being lonely. A boarding school is a great chance to make new lifelong friends. The question is: How?

1

You may find you have lots of things in common with your roommatebut even if you are completely different from each otherwith a little effort and understandingthe two of you may become best friends.

2

If you leave your door openthis shows that you welcome visitors. As a resultpeople will naturally stop in and say hello. Closed doors are not likely to bring many visitors and those who stay locked up in their rooms may give others the impression of being cold. Other students will be less likely to stop in and build a new friendship.

3

Getting involved in organized socialization is a great way to meet new people. It also helps you get more familiar with the campus. By staying active in school groups such as clubs and organizationsyou can meet lots of people with whom you share common interests.

4

Get to know your classmates as you'll be spending several months with them. Starting conversations in class is a great way to meet people who are interested in the same kind of studies as you are. Short friendly discussions can build lifelong friendship.

5

If you're athletictrying out for a sport will do for you the same thing as joining a club will do. You will instantly meet a large group of people who share your interest in sports.
