Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. A particular quirkof Canadian education is that there isn’t one system but 13. All 10 provinces and all 3 territories have the right to run their own education systems. It’s established in the Constitution. This means there is no national standard. Nobody agrees on the grade at which one makes the transition from elementary to secondary school, nor on how many years’ schooling is compulsory, nor how many grades there should be before college or university, nor how schools should be funded. Families relocating often get a surprise when they are informed that the children will have to repeat a grade because the one they have just finished does not cover the required courses to pass into the next grade where they are now. Older children from isolated areas may be sent away to boarding schools, but this practice is falling out of favor. These days children in a very small community are more likely to attend the same school from kindergarten to grade 12(13 in Ontario, 11 in Quebec). In rural areas, pupils are taken to the nearest school in large yellow buses, some spending over an hour on the bus each way. Some never do a spot of homework at home because they always complete it on the bus. With the arrival of computers, high-quality education has now become possible even in very remote areas. It also enables parents to educate their children at home. Colleges in Canada are sponsored by the state. Fully 75% of Canadian students go on after high school to some sort of further education. Having a university degree is fast becoming the minimum standard for employment but is far from a guarantee of a good job; those with a PhD in Philosophy, if not holding tenure at a university, are likely to be flipping burgers at a fast-food joint. 75 Strange education system 76 Not one system but 13 No national standard *No agreement on the grade at which one transfers from elementary to secondary school *No agreement on 77 *No agreement on 78 before college or university *No consensus about 79 funding schools 80 *Older children from isolated areas studying in boarding schools *Children in a very small community 81 the same school till Grade 12-13 *Children in rural areas taken to the nearest school spending over an hour in large school buses 82 College education * Fully 75% high school students 83 * Getting a university degree becoming 84 for employment [答案] 查看更多

Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

  “Humans have a code of ethics(行为规范),” says Marc Bekoff, an animal behavior expert at the University of Colorado.“If I don’t play in a certain way, you won’t play with me.Some animals have the same code”

  Scientists recently discovered that animals which live in groups, such as elephants, foxes and wolves are especially likely to follow rules.If they don’t, and each does its own thing, the group might break apart.Group members would be forced to live alone.Then they’d have a harder time hunting and raising their young.

  That’s probably why a traveling wolf pack stopped and waited to let its slowly moving leader catch up.Similar social ties may have caused a captive elephant to save her friend from drowning.Selfish reasons certainly motivated the male fox, who wanted to keep playing.

  Sometimes, though, animals go out of their way to do what’s right, even when there’s nothing in it for them.Nobody knows why.“It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans,” says Bekoff.

  If your friend wasn’t nice to you, what would you do? Maybe you would just walk away.That’s exactly what a wild red fox did when she was play-boxing with another fox.The larger fox, a male, began pushing too hard.The little female didn’t like fighting.She ran away quietly.

  “He still wanted to play,” says Marc Bekoff.So the male fox ran after his playmate, bowed down, and rolled over.His body language meant, “Don’t leave.I’ll play nicely.” The female gave him another chance, and the male wrestled more gently this time.

1.How did the little female fox show her dissatisfaction with the larger male one?(no more than 5 words)

2.What’s the scientists’ recent discovery about the ethics in the world of animals?(no more than 15 words)

3.What does the sentence “It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans.” indicate?(no more than 13 words)

4.What’s the main idea of the passage?(no more than 11 words)
