3．All over the world mentioning of English education suggests a picture of the"public schools"，and it suggests in particular the names of certain very famous institutions-Eton，Oxford and Cambridge； but people do not always realize what place these institutions occupy in the whole educational system．Oxford and Cambridge are universities each having about 12，000students out of a total of over 250，000students at all British universities．Eton is a public school，and the best known of the public schools，which，in spite of their name，are not really public at all，but independent and private secondary schools taking boys from the age of thirteen to eighteen years．The public schools in reality form a very small part of the whole system of secondary education； only about one out of forty English boys go to a public school，and one out of 1，500goes to Eton．
Apart from the so-called public schools there is a complete system of state primary and secondary education，which resembles in its general form the state education in most other countries．All children must，by law，receive full-time education between the ages of five and sixteen．Any child may attend，without paying fees，a school provided by the public authorities，and the great majority attend such schools．They may continue，still without paying fees，until they are eighteen．In presenting an overall picture of English education it would be reasonable to concentrate on the state system alone and refer briefly to the public schools．However，although the public schools are not important numerically，they have been England's most peculiar and characteristic contribution to educational methods，and they have an immense influence on the whole of English educational practice and on the English social structure．For a hundred years most men in leading positions in banking，insurance，high finance，some industries，the army，the church and conservative politics have been educated at public schools．

（Note：Answer the question or complete the statements in no more than 12words．）
81．British public schools are not as their names suggests because they arein reality independent and private （actually）．
82．The public schools are not important in certain senses becauseonly a small number of children are studying there．
83．Why must all British children between the age of five and sixteen attend a school？Because it is required by law．
84．Why do people easily think of public schools when British education is mentioned？Because they have great influence on English education and society．．

2．Movie producers love the idea，partly because  it's so afraid and partly because it could really happen．The scene is this：an asteroid（小行星） is rushing toward Earth．A collision is unavoidable．When this happens，lots of people will die．
In the movies，a brave hero thinks of a clever plan to destroy the asteroid and save Earth．In real life，scientists have come up with more reasonable plans that might actually work if this situation comes up．
One way，say scientists and astronauts，is a 20ton spacecraft called a gravitational tractor．First，the tractor，would move quickly up to the threatening asteroid and stop a short distance away．It would hang there，firing its thrusters just enough to fight the force of gravity between the spacecraft and the asteroid．
The tractor could then use its own gravity to pull the asteroid off course．It would take about a year for the spacecraft to draw an asteroid away from Earth's path．
The question is that the spacecraft would have to arrive at the asteroid about 20years before it hits Earth．It would be easier then to move the asteroid out of the way than it would be if the asteroid was near the Earth．
Still，the tractor idea is better than many ways proposed years ago for asteroid avoidance．Exploding asteroids，for example，wouldn't work because the rocky bodies are too full of air．
Don't spend too much time worrying about asteroids'falling on your house，however．The chances of a collision happening in your lifetime are very small．If     ，though，scientists will do everything they can to keep you from getting hurt．Sounds very heroic to me!

1．[1]When I was in primary school，I got into an argument with a boy in my class．I have forgotten what the argument was about，but I have never forgotten the lesson learned that day．
[2]I was convinced that"I"was right and"he"was wrong--and he was just as convinced that      and"he"was right．The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson．She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other．
[3]In the middle of her desk was a large，round object．I could clearly see that it was black．She asked the boy what color the object was．"White，"he answered．
[4]I couldn't believe he said the object was white，when it was obviously black!Another argument started between my classmate and me，this time about the color of the object．
[5]The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy was standing and told him to come to stand where I had been．We changed places，and now she asked me what the color of the object was．I had to answer，"White．"it was an object with two differently colored sides，and from his viewpoint   it  was white．Only from my side was it black．
[6]My teacher taught me a very important lesson learned that day：You must stand in the other person's shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their perspective（看法）

20．[1]Whether you're recovering from a foot injury or working hard to prevent one，a proper warm-up before athletic activity is important．You should start with a general warm-up．This  is intended to get your heart rate up and your muscle groups warm．Walking，gentle jogging or basic aerobics （有氧運(yùn)動(dòng)） are all good places to start．The general warm-up should increase your heart rate and speed up breath so that your blood becomes oxygen-rich and carries nutrients to the muscle groups you're about to work．
[2]After the general warm up，move on to basic stretching，which doesn't require a lot of movement．Stretch your legs，ankles，feet，arms，chest and back．After completing these basic stretches，you can move on to sport-specific stretching．They should focus on the muscle groups you're about to engage and prepare your body for the types of movements the sport requires．
[3]Failure to warm up properly before athletics can result in injuries．So don't forget to stretch your feet and ankles when warming up!Point and bend your feet．Gently roll your ankle in one direction，and then in the other direction．Rise up on your toes and then gently rock back so that your weight is on your heels．
[4]Cooling down after physical activity is just       warming up．First stretch the muscle groups and parts of the body you just worked the hardest．Then move on to general body stretching．And finally，cool down with a gentle aerobic activity that will gradually return your heartbeat to its resting rate．
[5]Properly fitting athletic shoes are also important to preventing foot injuries．Look for athletic shoes specific to your foot type．People with high arches （足弓） should buy shoes which have a lot of support，and people with fallen arches should look for shoes that advertise motion control．Buy your athletic shoes a half size bigger than your normal size as feet tend to increase in size when you exercise．

19．[1]What does a successful language learner do？Language learning research shows that successful language learners are similar in many ways．
[2]First of all，successful language learners are independent learners．They do not depend on the book or the teacher．Instead of waiting for teachers to explain，they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves．They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions．
[3]Secondly，successful language learning is active learning．Therefore，successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language but     ．They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake．They will try anything to communicate．They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things．They are willing to make mistakes and try again．When communication is difficult，they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete．It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word．
[4]Finally，successful language learners are learners with a purpose．They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language．
[5]What kind of language learners are you？If you are a successful language learner，you have probably been learning independently，actively and purposefully．On the other hand，if your language learning has been less than successful，you might do well to try some of the techniques above．

76．What is the main idea of the text？（Please answer within 10words．）
Language learning research shows that successful language learners are similar in many ways
77．Which sentence in the text can be replaced by the following one？

[1]It's a fine line parents walk as they try to guide their kids into adulthood．You want to protect but not treat too kindly，advise but not control and let them live their own lives-with some input，of course．
[2]When your child asks for help or advice，give only what was asked for．If your Child asks you to tie a particular hard-to-tie knot（繩結(jié)）for a project she is working on，just tie the knot．Don't start helping with the rest of the project or making suggestions on how to do it．She wants to do it herself，in her own way．Before                 which your child has not askd for，count to ten．Perhaps in those seconds you'll decide that the advice would do no good，or isn't really that important，and you'll drop it．If the advice still seems important，you will give it，but the pause may lead you to give it in a more thoughtful way．
[3]Remember that your child is not you and is not a reflection of you．We mak a serious mistake if we try to shape our children into copies of ourselves，or if we think of them as extensions or reflections of ourselves．We need to help them to be them，not try to turn them into us or into something that we think will make us look good．
[4]Our primary responsibility to our children is not that of telling them moment-to-moment or day-to-day how to behave but providing them with a healthy environment in which to develop．For example，one of the best ways you can help your kids is to work with your community to create safe-enough outdoor places to play in your neighborhood．

15．When farmers and wild animals share land，conflicts can be hard to prevent．（71）B
The FAO and other groups are developing what they call the Human-Wildlife Conflict Mitigation（緩和） Toolkit-a collection of advice and information that farmers in southern Africa have been testing．The main aim of the toolkit is to provide low-cost methods to deal with wild animals without harming them．
In Zambia and Mozambique，crocodiles are blamed for more deaths than any other animal．Nile crocodiles kill an estimated three hundred people each year in Mozambique alone．（72）FBesides，people should always enter the water several at a time，in groups armed with weapons like sticks and stones，axes and spears．
The toolkit also has ideas to control baboons．These large monkeys raid crops and they can kill sheep and other livestock．One suggestion is to remove the center from a loaf of bread and hide a snake inside-a live one if possible．Baboons have a fear of snakes．（73）DA baboon frightened by a snake sandwich will probably not come back．
Another animal with a good memory-the elephant-often destroys field crops．The loss of their crops means the loss of a family's food supply．（74）GFarmers can mix pepper powder with elephant waste and form bricks．The idea is to burn these bricks around the edges of fields to keep elephants away．Farmers can also grow fields of chili peppers．Another way to control elephants is with a plastic gun．It fires balls that burst and release a chili liquid when they hit the elephant's skin（75）A．

A．You might also be able to stop an elephant by shining lights in their eyes．
B．But the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization is trying to help，
C．For example，some farmers in Kenya use donkeys to guard against lions．
D．And they also have very good memories．
E．Crocodile attacks are less likely in places that have not been overfished．
F．Strong fencing at watering points can offer protection，
G．Did you know elephants hate chili pepper？

14．For many years，people in American cities have depended on farmers in rural areas to grow fruits and vegetables．（71）F Sean Conroe is a college student．Amber Banks is a teacher．They both grew up farming and gardening．Sean Conroe and Amber Banks wanted to start a farm in the middle of Seattle，Washington．They see unused space as a great place to grow food that will make it more accessible for people．"
Sean Conroe created a website to get volunteers and donations．Within a week，they were offered a plot of land between two houses．He says twenty volunteers worked for six weekends to turn the grassy land into a farm．They call their project Alleycat Acres．（72）EThey have donated most of it to local food banks that feed hungry people in Seattle．One of the goals of the urban farm is to show city people the joys of growing food．（73）GAnd Amber Banks says they want the same people who get food donations to learn how to work the soil．
（74）CSo are a lot of other urban farming groups．Sean Conroe says："We'd like to expand as much as we can where there are empty lots that have plenty of sunlight and that have access to water．"
Seattle has declared two thousand ten"The Year of Urban Agriculture．"（75）AThat is because Seattle，like a lot of other cities，has restrictions on urban farms．The City Council is now considering changing those laws．

A．But the growth of these farms is limited．
B．Like many volunteers，she does not have much gardening experience．
C．Alleycat Acres is expanding'to other empty areas of Seattle．
D．There are many neighborhoods that don't have access to water．
E．They have harvested about ninety kilograms of produce so far．
F．But now a new generation of farmers is planting crops in urban areas．
G．The Alleycats invite school groups to the farm to help out．
