【题目】B) 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,完成表格中所缺的信息。并将答案填写在下面相应题号的位置上。
Many American schools are closed during the summer. Most children in the United States have a summer holiday for almost three months. This traditional school schedule was designed long ago when many Americans lived on farms. Children were needed at home during the summer to help their families with harvesting crops and feeding animals. Schools later continued the tradition, mostly because it was difficult to hold classes in the hot summer weather.
American schools began to do an experiment by changing this system in the early 1900s. One idea was for children to attend school all year round. But the idea didn't become popular until about twenty-five years ago. Studies done at the time showed that American students were not performing as well as students in other countries.
Students who attend year-round schools in the United States do not go to class every day. They spend the same number of days in class as other students do. But the time is organized differently. For example, some students attend school five days a week for nine weeks. Then they have three weeks off before going back to school for another nine weeks. In summer, they have a five-week holiday.
Supporters of year round schooling say it improves students’ learning. They say students in the traditional system often forget what they have learnt after a long summer holiday. They think that schools can offer special classes during short holidays for students who need extra help. They also think that it saves money, because the school buildings are used throughout the year.
People who oppose year-round schooling say the research has not showed that it can improve students’ learning. Families report problems in organizing activities and travel when their children in different schools have different holidays. Some parents want their children to have a long summer away from the pressures of school. People who start summer camps for children don’t agree with the idea. So do businessmen that employ teenagers in summer.

【题目】Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Now it was Jerry's turn. And Jerry would ride Wild Lady! I watched Jerry in the cute.
Jerry dropped down on the horse's back. He was ready to go. "Outside!" He called.
The gate of the cute opened. And then nothing. Wild Lady didn't move. What was the matter?
Suddenly Wild Lady jumped out like a tiger. She jumped—with all four feet off the ground. She was quick, still I could see Jerry's spurs（马刺）. He had them in the right place.
Again Wild Lady jumped, kicking and turning. Then she began a quick turn. Now I knew why all the riders were afraid of her. Around and around she went. Again and again she dug her front legs into the ground and kicked up behind. Jerry's neck moved back each time the horse jumped.
Now Wild Lady was turning fast—so fast that Jerry looked like part of her. Once I saw Jerry bounce（弹起）up high, off to one side. "That's it!" I thought. But no! She was still riding.
I was trying to count off the seconds with my fingers. But I was lost in the watching. I dug my nails（指甲）into my hand until it hurt. Wild Lady jumped higher and higher.
Again the horse threw Jerry into the air. The people around me stood up. I couldn't see what was happening. But I heard, "Come on!" That was Jerry landing on the horse's back. Everybody was shouting. And they were still shouting when the bell rang. It was all over, Jerry had stayed on that horse for eight long seconds.
Now I had seen Jerry ride. I don' know how he felt while he was on that horse. But I know how I felt watching him. That eight seconds was a long time for Jerry. It was a long time for me too!
