B

More than 6,000 children were expulsed (开除) from U. S. schools last year for bringing

guns and bombs to school, the U. S. Department of Education said on May 8.

The department gave a report to the expulsions as saying handguns accounted for 58 percent of the 6.093 expulsions in 2003-2004, against 7 percent for rifles(步枪) or shotguns and 35 percent for other types of firearms. " The report is a clear sign that our nation ' s public schools are cracking down(严惩 ) on students who bring guns to school, " Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement. "We need to be strong-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe. " In March 2004, an ll years old boy and 13 years old boy using hand- guns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In Octo ber, two were killed and seven were wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14 years old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Kentuck y. Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 13. 34 percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said.

60. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the U. S. schools ___________.

[ A] students enjoy shooting .

[ B ] students are eager to be soldiers

[ C] safety is a problem

[ D] students can make guns

Every year more than half a million American kids have drainage(排泄) tubes surgically implanted in their ears to combat persistent infections.

In 【C4】______ more than 6,000 scheduled ear tube operations, a team of experts 【C5】______ by Harvard pediatrician Lawrence Kleinman found that fewer than half were clearly justified.

Museums have changed. They are no longer places that one "should" go to but now they are p

laces to enjoy.

At a science museum in Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body. At the Children's Museum in New York, you can play an African drum. There are no "Do Not Touch" signs in some other museums in the USA.

More and more museum directors have realized that people learn best when they can become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, the visitors are encouraged to touch, listen, operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves.

The purpose is not only to provide fun, but also help people feel at home in the world of science. If people don't understand science, they will be afraid of it; and if they are afraid of science, they will not make the best use of it.

One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and spare time. Another cause is the growing number of young people in the population. Many of them are college students or college graduates. They see things in a new and different way. They want art that they can take part in. The same is true of science and history.

The old museums have been changing and the government is encouraging the building of new and modern museums. In the United States and Canada, there are more than 6,000 museums, almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago.

The directors of the museums have realized ______.

A．the importance of scientific rules

B．people learn best when they look at something

C．visitors prefer to learn from museums

D．the museums need changes
