The museums wildlife garden attracts urban wildlife such as dragonflies and blackbirds and highlights inner-city wildlife conservation.London Transport MuseumAmong the vehicles on display at the London Transport Museum is the first underground electric train, which had no windows because there was nothing to see underground. The trouble was that no one could tell which stop they were at, a small problem solved by employing an athletic announcer who ran to each carriage at every station, shouting out the stops. Dating from 1890, this is one of the several museum exhibits you can board. The design gallery is in memory of Frank Pick, the man responsible for rolling out the London Underground brand and giving each line its own character. Museum of London The history of London, from prehistoric times to the present is told in the Museum of London through reconstructed interiors(内部) and street scenes, alongside displays of original artifacts found during the museums archaeological digs.

The drone of the younger boys reading letters and the older boys reciting Latin verbs made him sleepy. Jonathan had to force his eyes to stay open. He wanted to learn something new!He looked up at the schoolmasters high desk in the front of the room. The new teacher was from Harvard College. Jonathans father had been impressed with him. The boys had already had several other teachers, but none of them seemed to inspire Jonathan. So far, there was nothing to show that this one was special , though hed only been there two days. “Its too hot to sit and memorize lessons,” the schoolmaster said. “Well move outdoors for the next part of our lesson.” He led the group of boys into the schoolyard. “You younger boys, dig for grubs and beetles ( 幼虫和甲虫). Count their feet. See if you can describe their shells”Jonathan watched the teacher surrounded by laughing young students. No one had ever used the schoolyard itself for a classroom. “What next ?” he thought. Soon he didnt have time to think about the younger boys, for he was running after butterflies and dragonflies himself. Jonathan and his friends liked this new way of learning. “It will be a clear night tonight. Go outside and look at the sky,” said the schoolmaster. “Look at the stars and notice their brightness and the patterns they make. These patterns have names from Greek mythology(神话), names like Orion, Aries, and others. Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories on them.” “How is the new schoolmaster ?” asked Jonathans father that evening, when Jonathan announced he was going out to look at the sky. “Hes different from any other schoolmaster weve had,” Jonathan admitted. “He seems interested in everything around him, and he wants us to be curious too. He even used the schoolyard as a classroom!”“So Mr. John Adams and his new ways make school useful to you after all,” joked Jonathans father.“I believe he has,” said Jonathan. “I know I wont forget the lessons he has taught us!” 25. What does the underlined word “drone” in Paragraph 1 mean ? A. Clear speaking voices B. Continuous low dull sounds C. Enthusiastic responses D. High spirits26. Which statement shows that the new schoolmaster understood the children ? A. “Go outside and look at the sky, ” B. “ See if you can describe their shells.”C. “ Its too hot to sit and memorize lessons,” D. “Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories”27.From the last but one paragraph, we can learn that _. A. Mr. Cranwell had met the new schoolmaster B. Jonathan had previously complained about school C. Mr. Cranwell was not satisfied with the new ways D. Jonathan had shown his father his homework. 28.What is the main idea of this story? A. Science is all around us. B. School provides us with the best education. C. Homework is an important part of education. D. There is more than one way to learn. CAt the end of the 19th century, Maria Montessori became Italys first modern woman physician. Early in her career, she struggled to advance in the male-dominated profession. As a member of the University of Rome department, she was assigned to the citys mental hospitals to experiment with the patients ability to learn, a task considered boring and unimportant by medical professionals at the time. Although her education was in medicine, her interaction with mentally-disabled children inspired her to study the processes of the mind. By 1906, she had resigned from the university to pursue a career in child education. Starting with sixty working-class children, Montessori established a childrens house in Rome to foster (培养) an environment ideally suited for child development. Her efforts led her studentseven those with supposed learning disabilitiesto be excellent at standardized examinations. In the childrens house, Montessori realized how readily children learnt from their environment. At its core(核心), the Montessori Method is a means of fostering development and learning in children. The comparison of a childs development with universal standards is discouraging, since it is believed that children naturally develop in different ways and acquire skills at different times. Acknowledging this, a Montessori educator closely observes the child and provides him or her with the tools necessary for independent learning. Adults avoid giving criticism for mistakes and rewards for successes. The goal of these steps is to ease the child into an environment of learning without fear. Self-learning and self-correction are the fundamental processes of the Montessori Method, which Maria Montessori showed will foster a lifelong love of learning and joy in the pursuit of ones goals.Today, children are taught with the Montessori Method in both public and private schools in the United States and many countries around the world. With increasing pressure on schools to provide quality education to a growing population, Montessoris ideas of teaching self-reliance and love of learning continue to gain in popularity. 29. After becoming a doctor , Montessori faced strong pressure from _.A. demanding research work B. teaching at the University of RomeC. the medical fields controlled by men D. patients in mental hospitals 30. The first 60 children in the childrens house _. A. had severe learning disabilities B. came from wealthy backgrounds C. were nervous of the ideal environment D. performed very well academically31.What does the Montessori Method require an educator to do ? A. Reward children for their successes. B. Ask children to provide themselves with teaching tools. C. Make children the center of learning. D. Place great emphasis on universal standards.32. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss ?A. The origins of the Montessori Method B. The influence of the Montessori MethodC. The principles of the Montessori Method D. The limitations of the Montessori Method DThe hottest “green “ toy in Germany isnt made of organic or recycled materials. This one has a solar panel (太阳能电池板)and only runs if kids remember to insert bright red “energy stones” that power the space station.Germany, a pioneer in many renewable energy movements, is also at the forefront of creating environment -friendly toys aimed at making kids think about where energy comes from and how much of it they can use, raising awareness through play. A number of high-tech green toys are on display at this years Nuremberg toy fair, which runs through Sunday. Among them, there are hydroelectric-powered toy cars, and doll houses with windpowered engine and rainwater catchers. The bright green Future Planet space station features inner equipment with a fan that is powered by a functioning solar cell. Its aim is to get kids to use their imagination about how energy will be created in the future.Makers and retailers believe such toys will play an increasingly important role in their futureand that of our kids. Energy is the question of the future and we are definitely thinking about this as we move ahead, said Judith Schweinitz, a spokeswoman for Playmobil, maker of the solar panel-fitted space station. It is increasingly being brought into our play concept.she added. Studies indicate that green toyswhich range from those made of sustainable materials to ones like the space station that just raise environmental awarenessare becoming more and more popular in the international toy market. 33.
