A school is being 3 in New Jersey, U.S.A. It is called Bancroft. Here the disabled will be trained to 4 themselves and to get along in the outside world.
Bancroft is not surrounded by 5 of any kind. Its director insists that it be 6 so that students may gradually develop normal relations with the rest of the world. Bancroft students will 7 in apartment, cooking their own meals, and learning to perform other 8 .As they become 9 , they will buy their own furniture, paying for it out of their own earnings. They will pay for their food, too. They will learn to expect 10 bills for the calls they make every month.
As a step toward the goal of becoming 11 , each disabled person will decide what kind of work he wants to be 12 to do. While some of the training will be carried on within Bancroft itself, most of the students will receive 13 training in nearby towns. They will be trained by town people.
After the training has been 14 completed, the student will work as an assistant and will begin to earn money. After that he will leave Bancroft, 15 the school will continue to give him help if he 16 it.
How long will it take a student to 17 his training under this new system? The director says. “For some a year will be 18 . For others it might take ten years.” For all, however, this method offers new 19 .Many will learn to be 20 and independent, supporting themselves in the world.

| 1.
与前面的physical（身体上）相对比，mental指智力上的。
2. 从下文可知，应用的是一种方法（method）而不是计划（plans）,decisions（决定）或tools（工具），可从最后一段的最后一句得此答案。 3. set up建立。 4. 阅读下文，在这所学校里主要是帮助残疾人如保去养活自己（support oneself）。诸如自己做饭、找工作挣钱等，而不是enjoy oneself(享受)，teach oneself(自学)，help oneself(帮助等) 5. 后面提到学校应该是开放型的，也就是没有围墙。 6. 一是此校没有围墙，二是此校更注重自己的学生和外界逐渐建立正常的关系，所以此校应该是一个开放型（open）的学校。 7. apartment公寓，应该是住在。 8. task任务 9. 从下语言可知，这些学生的能力在逐渐加强，able意为“有能力的”。 10. 后面提到call，说明应该是电话账单 11. 其中的一个步骤是使学生们变得独立交桥（independent），而不是brave（勇敢），clever(聪明),learned(有学识的)。从文章最后一句可得此答案。 12. 从下句some of the training可知此处就是被训练（trained）。 13. 从下段学生将作为售货员开始工作以谋取生，可知目前进行的是工作方面的训练。 14. 当然应是训练得非常成功（successfully），才能开始工作。 15. “学生们虽然将离开学校，但（but）此校还会一如既往地帮助他们。”but表示转折。 16. 如果需要学校就会帮助他 17. complete完成训练 18. 从下句“一些人需要十年”，对比这句话，对于一些人，一年足够了（enough）。 19. 这所学校给予了新的理念 20. 很多人从这种训练中学会如何对社会有用（useful）。

天天向上一本好卷系列答案
小学生10分钟应用题系列答案科目：高中英语 来源： 题型：阅读理解
Can people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.
The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science.
Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.
It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinned Europeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.
However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebrafish genes.
Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.
But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.
Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they probably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.
The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.
The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A. people can not change their skin colour without any pain
B. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safely
C. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he liked
D. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene
It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical treatment
B. Europeans and Africans have the same gene
C. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancer
D. there are two kinds of genes
Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.
A. find the different genes of humans’
B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment gene
C. find out the reason why the Africans’ skin colour is dark
D. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour
The writer’s attitude towards the discovery is ________.
A. neutral B. negative C. positive D. indifferent
