An entertainment magazine.B To most of us, school means classes, teachers, schedules, grades and tests. But for the children at Sudbury Valley School, Massachusetts,

16、 school is very different. Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want to. There are no teachersonly “staff members”. The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to learn anyway. “You do not need to say

17、to a three-year-old, Go to explore your environment. You cant stop them!” says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the school. “But if you make children do what you want all day, they will lose all taste for learning.” At Sudbury Valley School, you will permit children to talk, read, paint, cook, work on

18、 computers, study French, play the piano, climb trees, or just run around. Two boys spent three years just fishing! The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote eache

19、ven the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school budget, and even which staff they want and do not want any more. When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college. Even

20、 the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.24、What is the main topic of the article?A. An unusual school. B. Childrens hobbies.C. A school without rules.D. Education in the US.25、What does the school beli

21、eve?A. Teachers cannot teach children well.B. Children learn best when they do what they want to do.C. Learning is for adultschildren should only play. D. Children should only learn about one thing at a time.26、What does Daniel Greenberg say about three-year-olds?A. They love learning. B. They are v

22、ery naughty.C. They want to be outside all the time.D. They are too young to learn anything.27、Who has the most power in the school meetings?A. The older children have more power than the younger children.B. A child has more power than an adult.C. The younger children have more power than the older

23、children.D. Everybody has equal power.C In English its common to say, “I know this town like the back of my hand! “While we may know our towns really well, how well do we actually know our hands? Maybe not quite as well as we think, said a scientific study. Matthew Longo and his team from University

24、 College London studied the left hands of 100 people. With their hands placed palms down under a board, Longos team gave the instruction to point to their knuckles and fingertips with a marker. How did they do? Not that well. People think their hand is wider than it actually is, said Longo. He said

25、they also seemed to think their fingers were shorter than their true lengths. People were most accurate when finding their thumbs, but became less accurate with each finger, up to their little fingers. It is connected to our sense of position, explained Longo. Humans know where different parts of ou

26、r bodies are, even if we cant see them. It tells us whether a joint is straight or not, said Longo. We also need to know the distances between our joints, he went on. Our brains know the sizes and shapes of our bodies from the maps they make for themselves. This experiment tried to find those maps,

27、“he said. Maybe maps dont need to be perfect. But why arent our brains more accurate? Longo said our brains see areas based on our sense of touch, with the stronger the sense of touch in a specific body part, the bigger that body part seems. An example is our lips. As they have more nerves than our

28、noses, our brains map shows our lips are bigger. The same thing can happen with body parts that have a lot of nerves. If youve ever had something stuck in your teeth, it probably felt huge! Thats because our tongues also have lots of nerves. If you want to have some fun, try this test with your clas

29、smates. Get some boards and some markers and have them mark the spots where they think their knuckles and fingertips are. Compare their hands to the marker spots and see how well they have performed.28、Why is the saying mentioned in Para. l?A. To test readers.B. To serve as a topic.C. To prove a sci

30、entific study.D. To attract readers interest.29、What can be inferred from people finding their thumbs more accurately?A.Thumbs are bigger.B.Thumbs are much stronger.C.Thumbs may have more nerves.D.Thumbs may have strong sense of position.30、What does the underlined word they in Para.4 refer to? A. S

31、izes. B. Brains. C. Shapes. D. Maps. 31、What is the purpose of the experiment?A. To find the maps in human brains.B. To draw the maps in human brains.C.To figure out how different senses cooperate.D.To help people locate their body parts accurately. D The Mona Lisa may maintain her famously mysterio

33、akes unknowing beneath Parisians feet, which uses electricity generated by renewable sources, is the largest in Europe and runs around the clock with a deafening noise totally inaudible above ground. Paris City Hall has now signed an ambitious contract to triple the size of the network by 2042 to 15

34、7 miles. It would make it the largest urban cooling system in the world. Three of the 10 high-tech cooling sites lie on the Seine river. When the Seines water is cold enough, a machine captures it and uses it to cool the systems water. The heat created as a byproduct is sent back into the Seine wher

35、e it is absorbed. The chilled water is then pumped through the systems pipes to its 730 Parisian clients. Paris cooling sites all use renewable energy sources such as wind turbines and solar panels. French officials see this energy independence as particularly important given the threat of Russia cu

Le Guedart said that the system is a money-saver given the
