plans to extend school opening hours for pupils ages under 14 that 【M1】______

are aimed at allowing parents working longer and keeping kids out 【M2】______

of trouble. Education Secretary Ruth Kelly was Monday to set out a

680-million-pound (1.02-billion-pound, 1.21-billion-dollar)

programme to transfer schools into community centres. 【M3】______

A senior Education Department source said, "Respect is a

two-way street and we know that if we want to keep kids hanging 【M4】______

out and causing trouble, and if we want their parents to go out to

work to support the family, the days of schools opening 9 am—3 pm

are over." Responding to the news, a spokeswoman for the National

Union of Teachers said, "The 680 million sound like new money, but 【M5】______

across 23,000 schools, it will be spread very thinly." Schools did not

necessarily have the capacity or resources to meet the government's

wishes, she added.

Children would be able to turn up early to school for so-called

breakfast clubs and stay lately playing sport or doing homework 【M6】______

under a shake-up of the school day to be known as "Kelly hours".

Prime Minister Tony Blair has said the government's plans for

opening schools from 8 am to 6 pm would end the culture of

"latch-key kids" come home to empty houses after school. 【M7】______

Schools in Britain generally begin at 9 am, closing at six hours 【M8】______

later, although some have already began to extend the learning day,

A prospectus for the scheme was to be sent to schools and local

councils. Writing in the document, Kelly said, "From my visits of 【M9】______

schools, I know that the best are delivering extended services

already. They know that children will be better placed to achieve

their full potential if they are in childcare What allows them to 【M10】______

complete their homework, keep fit and healthy and have fun."

Schools would be free to choose what activities they offered.

The old man would surely be proud. This week some 300 representatives, from 35 different c
ountries, gathered in Beijings Great Hall of the People for the first-ever Confucius Institute conference. This was no philosophical pow-wow, but the worlds largest-ever conference on teaching Chinese as a foreign language. Confucius Institutes are Chinas answer to the Alliance Francaise, Germanys Goethe Institute and the British Council, and officials hope they will help meet a growing global demand for Chinese-language education.Confucius Institutes have got off to a roaring start. The first was established in Tashkent in Uzbekistan in June 2004, the 75th in Cracow in Poland exactly two years later. No other Chinese international franchise has done as well. Officially, they are overseen by Hanban, the agency charged by the Education Ministry with promoting the teaching of Chinese overseas. But Hanbans staff of only around 50 can barely cope with the volume of applications, on top of its other duties which include administering Hanyu Shuipin Kaoshi, the standard test of proficiency in Chinese.

第6题

What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? I think the following would be gener
ally accepted.

First, the teacher s personality should be lively and attractive. This does not rule out people who are plain-looking, or even ugly, because many such people have great personal charm. But it does rule out such types as the over-excitable, sad, cold, and frustrated.

Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a genuine capacity for sympathy, a capacity to understand the minds and feelings of other people, especially, since most teachers are school teachers, the minds and feelings of children. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant not, indeed, of what is wrong, but of the weaknesses and immaturity of human nature which induce people, and again

especially children, to make mistakes.

Thirdly, I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. This means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths and limitations, and will have thought about and decided upon the moral principles by which his life shall be guided. There is no contradiction in my going on to say that a teacher should be a bit of an actor. That is part of the technique of teaching, which demands that every now and then a teacher should be able to put on an act to enliven a lesson, correct a fault, or award praise. Children, especially young children, live in a world that is rather larger than life.

A teacher must be capable of infinite patience. This, I may say, is largely a matter of self-discipline and self-training, for we are none of us born like that.

Finally, I think a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. Teaching is a job at which one will never be perfect; there is always something more to learn about it. There are three principal objects of study: the subjects which the teacher is teaching; the methods by which the subjects can best be taught to the particular pupils in the classes he is teaching; and by far the most important the children, young people, or adults to whom the subjects are to be taught. The two fundamental principles of British education today are that education is education of the whole person, and that it is best acquired through full and active co-operation between two persons, the teacher and the learner.

第7题

A prominent group of British university teachers this week called on the funding councils
to stop supporting low-quality research and put money into improving university teaching instead. The National Academic Policy Advisory Group, which includes members from the Royal Society, the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Conference of Medical Colleges, insists that all re- search money should be spent on world- class work.

The funding councils' Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) judges the quality of research carried out in individual university departments, and rates it on a scale of l to 5. In the last assessment, in 1992, departments ranked as low as 2 received funding. The group says this should not happen in this years exercise. Funding councils have not yet announced how they will distribute money from now on.

In a report called Research capability of the University System launched this week the group claims that funds are needed to pay for the “professional development” of university teachers who are not active in research, to help them keep up with their subject and improve the courses they teach.

It recommends that about 50 million, including money which is currently used to fund research in departments ranked at level 2, should be used to pay for this. It advises that the money should go only to those departments that are not competing for research money through the RAE.

The group believes that some universities have been expanding their research departments in order to attract research money. Some universities, it claims, are better suited to teaching than research, and should be encouraged to develop their expertise as educators.

“There's no use pretending that 104 universities could have the same job in life,” says David Harrison, master of Selwyn College, Cambridge, who chaired the group . A university could have some departments that are strong on research and others that are known for their top -grade teaching, he says.

But some people have some doubts about the group's recommendations. “It seems to be about developing further the distinction between research and non - research universities.” says Paul Cottrell of the Association of University Teachers, "If professional development money is a good idea, then it's a good idea for all university teachers."

The National Academic Policy Advisory Group says that money should be given to.

A.all the teachers

B.the best researchers.

C.the best teachers.

D.the needy universities .

第8题

Although I had stayed in England for over a year, it was difficult for me to understand
the British mind. Traveling to then office every day by train, I watched people hiding their faces behind newspapers. They rarely talked to each other, occasionally lifting their eyebrows to look at their fellow passengers. But when I started a conversation by using the excuse of the weather, I found many had a natural gift for gossip. They would go on telling me all about themselves and their families. Sometimes I was even given their telephone numbers and asked to look them up. At first I took their invitations as they appeared. But when I rang and hear the surprised tone “Who?” I felt embarrassed and pretended I had got the wrong number.

I had to learn to say “please”, “sorry”, “thank you”, whether I felt it or not. Once, while buying a ticket to Waterloo, I forgot to say “please”. The man at the counter was offended and would not give me the ticket until I had said “please”. When he handed me the ticket, he said “sorry”, and hurried inside to take the only empty seat.

On the way to the office one morning, a man collapsed in my compartment. At Waterloo, everybody left, but I stayed with him until the ambulance arrived and was an hour late getting to the office. I was told that it was not my job to look after strangers.

I found that many did not even look after their own parents who were old and helpless. In India, it is the duty of the children to look after their parent and old relatives. While serving a meal, my mother always gave food to the elderly relatives and children first and ate whatever was left over. The elderly never felt isolated. They lived with their families and contributed to the happiness of the house.

31. How long had the writer stayed in England?

A. Just a year

B. More than a year

C. Almost two years

D. About ten months

32. What does the word “rarely” mean in the first paragraph?

A. seldom

B. always

C. often

D. independent while the wife is dependent

33. What did the writer mean when he said “many had a natural gift for gossip”?

A. Many British people were born speakers

B. Many British people were talkative.

C. Many British people were hot-tempered.

D. Many British people were talented

34. What did the writer mean to say by giving us the examples in the second paragraph?

A. English people are very polite because they always say “thank you” or “sorry”.

B. English people enjoy teaching others lessons of politeness.

C. He had to learn to say “please”, “sorry”, “thank you”.

D. English people say polite words without sincere politeness.

35. What does the last paragraph suggest?

A. Many old people in England were lonely because they were not taken good care of.

B. Old people in India never felt isolated.

C. The writer’s mother always ate whatever was left over.

D. Old people in most countries are respected.

听力原文:In 1963 the leader of the Labor Party made a speech explaining plans for a "unive

听力原文: In 1963 the leader of the Labor Party made a speech explaining plans for a "university of the air"-- an educational system which would make use of television, radio and correspondence courses. Many people laughed at the idea, but it became part of the Labor Party's program to give educational opportunity to people who had not had a chance to receive further education.

By 1969 plans were well advanced and by August 1970 the Open University, as it is now called, had received 400 000 applications. Only 25 000 could be accepted for the four "foundation" courses offered: social sciences, arts, science and mathematics. Unsuccessful candidates were told to apply again the following year, when a foundation course in technology would also be offered.

The first teaching programs appeared on the air and screen in January 1971, with clerks, farm workers, housewives, teachers, policemen and many others as students. Correspondence units had been carefully prepared and science students were given devices for a small home laboratory. Study centers have been set up all over the country so that students can attend once a week, and once a year they will spend a week at one of the university's summer schools.

It has been nearly 40 years since the Open University started to offer courses. Now it is a very important part of the British educational system. Not only does it offer foundation courses like those mentioned above, it also carries out very advanced scientific researches, some of which will lead to Master's or PH. D Degrees.

32. How did people in the 1960's like the idea of establishing a "university of the air"?

33.Which course was one of the four "foundation" courses offered in the Open University?

34.When did the first teaching programs appear on the air and screen?

35.What's the current situation with the Open University?

(33)

A.Many thought it was ridiculous.

B.Some expected it to replace traditional ones.

C.Most regarded it as a convenient educational channel.

D.No one took it very seriously.
