Results 80. another pay increase Section B Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage. Secret Santas On Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but that’s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says. "It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous basis," says Linda. "It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays." Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a member of the American Women's Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service. To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home. "The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents. Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list--one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest."I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda. "Pay attention to what's going on in your own backyard--no matter where you live." The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous. 查看更多

  Small-class teaching used to be accepted only in universities in China. But it has been very 1 in all schools abroad. Interestingly, it seem that it is finding 2 way into the primary schools(小学)in Shanghai.

  Recently, 12 schools 3 Hetian Road Primary School held small-class lessons.

  One day I 4 the classroom of class 4, Grade 1 of Siping Road Primary School, I found that they were 5 a Chinese lesson with the topic(话题) of " 6 ".The 24 pupils of the class were divided into six 7 .They were discussing the question 8 by teacher: Draw the scenery (风景) 9 in the spring. In a moment, four 10 of drawing were hung before the 11 .Then the children were 12 to explain the drawing in their own 13 :"The sun is smiling"; The little fish 14 out of the river to 15 the red flowers or green leaves in the spring"; "the little bird is playing a 16 in the sky"; "The grass is dancing by the river"

  The new teaching 17 greatly helped develop every child's 18 ability(能力) and thirst for 19 .

  When asked about the good results brought about by the small-class teaching , Mr Yu, headmaster of Siping Road Primary School, said that new way of teaching 20 .It can help puplis work out problems on their own. 22 ,a teacher may have to pay more attention to each 23 ,even to some shy ones who are often neglected (忽视) by the teachers in a 24 class. This means that teachers should know each student quite well, Yu said.

  It is said that, in the near future, the small-class teaching method will 25 to other primary schools in Shanghai.
