Singapore's schools have become global role models with high results in international tests.But now they want to move,beyond this—towards something that encourages creativity and what they term "holistic（全面的）education".

Minister of Education,Heng Swee Keat,says this is "less about content knowledge",but "more about how to process information".He describes this challenge of innovating（创新）as being about to "tell truth from untruth,connect seemingly different things,and create knowledge even as the situation changes".

This approach aims to prepare today's students for the demands of the next 20 years.It means that schools are under more pressure,and will be given more freedom,to come up with creative ways to teach students.So instead of the traditional impressions of high-pressure Asian schools,with rows of heads buried in books,they are trying different approaches to learning.

To put this into practice,on a sunny April morning,80 students from one of Singapore's top schools were traveling outdoors.The nine to ten-year-old from Rosyth School were on a "learning journey" in a park,with science topics and values such as caring for the environment.

"We are conducting a biopsy（活组织检查）to find out why a bee,a fish,a bird or a plant died strangely,"said one student."Is it because of human actions?"

They photographed "evidence" on smart phones and digital cameras,getting facts on plants and animal species. "They can really learn through hands-on experience and putting things into action,"said moral education teacher, Joslyn Huang.

1.What are Singapore's schools famous for according to the passage?

A. Test results. B. Strict management.

C. Teaching methods. D. Learning environment.

2.What does Singapore's "holistic education" lay emphasis on?

A. Students' moral behavior. B. Students' creative ability.

C. Students' content knowledge. D. Students' hands-on experience.

3.Why did the 80 students from Rosyth School conduct a biopsy?

A. To improve the environment.

B. To protect animals and plants.

C. To study the relationship between human actions and some animals' death.

D. To find out the relationship between human behaviors and climate changes.

4.How did the author tell us about a different way of learning in Singapore's schools?

A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.

C. By listing figures. D. By analyzing cause and effect.

Dear cousin,

Long time no see! It has been almost a year ever since you move to London. I miss you a lot of. I’m writing the letter to ask you for help. As you know, I am eager to be a photographer like you, so I asked my parents to buy me the camera last week. But he told me I wouldn’t concentrate in my schoolwork if I got one. Oh, my God!

When 1 was a boy we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge oak trees growing out of it．When winter arrived，thick，heavy snow would fall，and my two brothers would grab their sleds heading over to the hill for a day of fun．I remember watching them with envy because 1 was still too small to go sledding．Finally，one winter 1 was considered big enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds up the long hill and prepared to ride down it．

The first few trips I rode with one of my brothers and had the time of my life．It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled．Near the end of the day 1 was overjoyed too when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself．I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach．Then with one big push my brother sent me down the snowy hillside．1 was doing pretty well too until I hit an old stump hidden by the snow and went off course，straight towards one of those big oak trees．My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming．At the last possible second I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree．I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling，“You have to steer(操控)!You have to steer!”

Sadly，that wasn’t the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life．Many times problems，troubles，and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger, frustration, and despair．I am still learning that life isn’t always safe sledding．I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness, back to goodness, and back to God．

Life is a trip，but no one ever said it was a smooth ride．Steer well then．Steer straight．Steer your soul towards the light and the love we are all meant for．

The game of rugby football was played at Rugby School between 1750 and 1859, but players were not allowed to run with it in their hands towards the other side’s goal. With no limit to the number of players per side, hundreds would participate in it, sometimes resulting in major injuries. The innovation(创新) of running with the ball was introduced between 1859 and 1865. The popular myth of the sport’s origin states that Rugby pupil William Webb Ellis broke the local rules by running forward with the ball in his hands in 1823. Rugby School produced the first written rules for their version of the sport in 1845.

In the result that the teams still tied at the end of the match, a drop goal shootout was held. The selected kickers of the two teams would have one shot at the goal each and would take turns shooting at the goal until one of the kickers missed.

In England, rugby union is widely regarded as an “establishment” sport, played mostly by members of the upper and middle classes. For example, many students at private schools and grammar schools play in rugby union. In France, rugby is also widely played and has a strong tradition in the Basque people along the border regions between Spain and France. The game is very popular in South Africa among both blacks and whites, having been introduced by English-speaking settlers in the 19th century. British colonists also brought the game with them to Australia and New Zealand, where the game is widely played. It has spread then to much of Polynesia, having particularly strong followings in Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga.

An official rugby union ball is made of leather or suitable material. Rugby shirts were formerly made of cotton but are now made of a cotton and polyester (涤纶) mix. This material has the advantage of not absorbing as much water or mud as cotton alone.

1.Which of the following statements is WRONG about the ancient rugby?

A. Players often got injured.

B. A great number of people could take part.

C. Players could run forward with the ball in their hands before 1823.

D. Written rules were first made in Rugby School in the 1840s.

2.Why was a drop goal shootout made?

A. To select outstanding players.

B. To encourage the audience’s curiosity.

C. To make the match exciting.

D. To decide the winner of the match.

3.The third paragraph mainly talks about _______.

A. the popularity of rugby sport

B. how rugby union was established in England

C. how British people spread the sport

D. the origin and development of rugby

4.Rugby shirts made of cotton alone ___________.

A. are easy to absorb much water and mud

B. are replaced by polyester shirt finally

C. are much more expensive than polyester

D. are much suitable to the players

Most times, what people accept as hope is a feeling or thought that something desired may happen. The word hope is a guarantee（保证）of happiness without a doubt. Hope in ancient Greek is “elpis” meaning “to expect or look forward with pleasure”. Orison Swett Marden says “there is no medicine as great and powerful expectation of something better tomorrow.”

Samuel Esson Jonah is one of the world’s most influential personalities of this century. When he was young, mining for Africans was hell on earth, because they were treated very badly and there were no key positions in the industry for them because it was believed that the black could not manage their affairs successfully. Even in the face of all these challenges and discriminations, Jonah hoped to head the industry someday. When he told his workmates and parents about his hope, he became a laughing stock. Not giving up on his hope, he worked hard toward it and at last he became president of Anglo Gold Ashanti.

Hope without doubt helps you to work hard until you finally achieve your aims or goals. Hope keeps one alive and also helps us persevere (坚持) to succeed. Someone may say “I’ve tried and failed several times”. As a matter of fact, failure is inevitable(无法避免的) sometimes but that doesn’t overrule your ability to succeed. The key is that you can’t give up your hope. Our history has seen many great achievers. Though they hoped they could make it, they also failed; however, they didn’t give up on their hope. They worked even harder and eventually succeeded.

Today when we can celebrate so many of them for their courage, remember “faith without work is dead”, so is your dream or hope. Samuel Similes says “Hope is the companion（伙伴） of power, the mother of success, for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles (奇迹).” So don’t let your hope down.

1.What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?

A. How to remain hopeful.

B. What hope really means.

C. The importance of having hope.

D. The relationship between hope and pleasure.

2.The author uses the example of Samuel Esson Jonah mainly to _________.

A. prove that hope can lead to success

B. prove a lowly man can also succeed

C. show the times produce their heroes

D. show it’s hard for a black to succeed

3.According to Paragraph 3, to succeed one should _________.

A. acquire great ability

B. avoid quitting easily

C. try to understand history

D. stop being overconfident

4.Which would be the best title for the text?

A. Hope is just a choice

B. Keep your hope alive

C. Failure breeds success

D. How to achieve success
