In a small open courtyard, outside a school building, there were flowers here and there. In the sunshine, a  36  was lying on the grass, reading a book with  37  concentration. Near her, another child was carefully watering the flowers, while a third was  38  with his back against a tree and had a  39  on his knees. He appeared to be drawing or writing something on it. He was _40  in his task, like the first child.

_41  the building, there were pleasant carpeted areas. Many children were busy with their tasks in a variety of  42  , while teachers wandered among them, talking to them,  43  them, and encouraging their efforts.

_44  I watched this scene on a morning in May years ago, it  45  to me that a visitor here would  46  have thought be had entered a formal school. He would have been even more  47  if he had been told that the children he was  48  came from different kinds of academic levels.

That  49  has been staying with me ever since. I have been  50  about some problems. Why in many schools are our children  51  asked to acquire skills in a way  52  from a real-life context(情境)? Why does a  53  school child so often become a defeated school failure?

And if every child could learn in the same way as the children in the school I visited, they would develop better.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并填写在答题卡上。

  Linda often asked Luke to dinner. Linda loved Luke, but Luke loved Linda’s cooking, not Linda herself. Linda accepted that for the time being. But she felt that, with enough meals and enough time, she would get her man.

Luke rarely stayed more than ten minutes past the last bite of dessert. Linda would ask luke if he wanted to watch TV, or play cards or chess, or take a walk around the neighborhood, but Luke always declined. He always said, “ I’ve got to go.” They both knew that Luke didn’t have to go anywhere. All he ever did was to go back to his apartment and read books or go online.

Tonight was probably going to be more of the same. But Linda was a patient woman. She loved to cook, and she loved to watch people eat her cooking. Tonight she prepared shrimp, fresh green beans, mashed potatoes, and asparagus(芦笋). Luke ate everything. Then she brought out her homemade cheesecake with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

Luke asked, “ Are you trying to fatten me up for something? Every time I come over here, I have to eat celery(芹菜) and lettuce for a week to get back down to my normal weight. Or maybe I should start going to the gym more often. Nah, I’m too lazy for that.”

“Oh, stop exaggerating(夸张).” Linda replied. “ You enoy every mouthful. And besides, I don’t think you lazy at all.”

“ You’re right. I apologise. I love your cooking, and if you didn’t invite me over here, I’d be hurt and hungry.”

Linda watched contentedly(满足地) as Luke devoured the cheesecake and ice cream. Someday, she thought, I will be his dessert.

   A. My Foolish Heart.

   B. The Way to a Man’s Heart is Through his Stomach.

   C. The Fatter the Better.
