The Conservatives would give English state schools the freedom to choose to have longer teaching hours and extra classes at the weekend, he told the Association of Teachers and Lecturers annual conference.Gove said the move would help to close the achievement gap with richer children whose parents could afford extras such as tutoring and music lessons. He told delegates (代表) in Manchester: “For children who come from homes where parents dont have the resources to provide additional stretch and cultural experiences, there are benefits in having those children in the learning environment, in school, for longer.” “Parents would love to have schools starting earlier in some circumstances, and certainly going on later in the afternoon, given the reality of their working lives,” he said. He held up the example of Kipp (Knowledge is Power Program) schools in the US, which are often based in the poorest communities and open from 7:30 am to 5pm on weekdays, plus Saturdays. But it would be up to schools to decide to offer longer hours, Gove added. Parents said Saturday classes could become a “badge of dishonor”if pupils were forced to go, while teachers raised concerns about their workload.Margaret Morrissey, of Parents Outloud, said: “I think the suggestion the government made about one-to-one teaching for these kids would be a more preferable way of improving these childrens performance. Im just not sure whether taking away a child at weekends is actually going to make them cleverer in the week.”The ATLs general secretary, Mary Bousted, said: “If we want Saturday schools, then we need more teachers doing the extra hours, not the same teachers working longer.”61The program is intended for children_. Awho are from middle-class familiesBwhose parents cant afford extra help Cwho perform poorly academically Dwhose weekends are mostly unoccupied 62“Additional stretch” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to_. Amusic lessons Bphysical relaxation Centertainment activitiesDout-of-school improvement63. Why did Gove mention Kipp schools in the US? ATo make a comparison. BTo introduce a new program.CTo seek supportive evidence. DTo prove his program is better.64What is Margaret Morrisseys opinion about the new program? AFavorable. BDoubtful. COptimistic.DAcceptable. 65Which of the following is true?ATeachers may not like the program.BSchools are trying to make profits.CThe program is already under way. DThe program is popular with children.C To err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human. Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular misquotes(戏谑的引语)are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature . To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do . The original quote about human nature went like this:” To err is human, to forgive, divine(神圣的). ”This saying mirrors an deal people should be forgiving of others mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshineCommon sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company,” the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. ”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people. get the idea that its okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论)to that: if good excuse is “good”even if it isnt honest, then where is the place of the truth?66. According to the passage, which of following seems the most human?A. To search for truth B. To achieve ones idealB. To make fun of othersmistakes D. To criticize others for ones own error.67According to the author, what is a sign of a mans maturity?A Doing things his own way B Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.C Making as few mistakes as possibleD Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.68Which of the following is NOT based on common sense?AA man tries to take charge of everything in a large company.BA student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather.CA companys next move follows a good planDA lawyer acts on fine judgments69. What is the authors opinion about a good excuse?A. Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.B .Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.CA good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.D .Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.70. What would be the best title for his passage?A. A Mirror of Human Nature B. To Blame or to ForgiveC. A Mark of Maturity D. Truth or ExcuseDCanadian scientists have found a method to help aging people get less forgetful by improving their cognitive（认知） abilities through well-designed training. Everyone experiences some degree of memory loss and cognitive decline as they get older. The decline usually becomes noticeable after 50, when people may find it slightly more difficult to focus on tasks, organize everyday jobs and remember how to do things in the right order. A team of psychologists（心理学家）in Toronto created a strategy(策略) of cognitive training to help people preserve these abilities. Our primary emphasis was on improving the use of general strategic abilities because they are particularly weak to the aging process, Dr. Donald Stuss, director of the study, said in a press release. The team examined 49 healthy older adults with normal cognitive decline. All of the participants were between the ages of 71 and 87. Over the course of 12 weeks, psychologists taught them methods to improve their strategic abilities. Afterwards, researchers saw a 15 to 40 percent improvement in the memories of all participants. “Over a period of six months their improvement not only maintained, but increased, said Dr. Gordon Winocur, coordinator of the study. The 12-week course was broken up into three four-week sections, focusing on a different skill involved in strategic abilities: memory, goal management and psychosocial function.The memory training emphasized how to preserve and recover information, while goal management focused on methods to lower the chance of memory slips. Psychosocial training was aimed at increasing the participants confidence in their mental abilities. “We wanted to develop a cognitive training program that would produce improvement over a relatively short period of time, so participants could benefit more on that while theyre still functional and slow down the rate of decline, said Winocur.
