    60．The main purpose of writing the passage is to . A．introduce the history of Chinatowns in the world B．attract more visitors to Chinatowns in the areas C．let Chinese earliest immigrants settle in the areas D．communicate with other people in the world B However important we may regard school life to be, there is always the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom. Therefore, the teacher should realize that parents have a great influence on their children. Parents can become strong allies of the school or they can get in the way of the school education. Experts have realized the need to deep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools. Many headmasters have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness, program, writing and mathematics to parents. Moreover, the classroom teacher, with the permission of the superlisors , can also play an important part in giving more knowledge to reporting pupils progress, teachers can help portents a lot in educating their children and parents can give much help to teachers. Suppose that a father has been drilling Junior arithmetic lessons night after night. In a friendly talk between the teacher and the father, the teacher can help the parent to make Junior interested in it. He might be persuaded to let Junior join in discussing the family budget , buying the food, using a ruler or measuring cup at home, setting the clock, calculating the distance of a trip and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis. If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to say that he will soon realize that his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics, and at the same time, enjoying the work. Too often, however, teachers' talks with parents are devoted to small accounts of children's misdemeanors . They talk about the laziness and poor work habits of the children. What is needed is a more creative way in which the teacher, as an adviser, plants ideas in parents' minds to make sure that the child spends the many hours out of the classroom learning something useful. In this way the school and the home join forces in educating children. 【查看更多】

     

    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    阅读理解。

    　　Since earliest times we humans have been thrilled and chilled by things we can not understand－weather, death, the movement of stars and planets, even the darkness of night．

    　　In order to cope with these great terrors, myths and legends were born－dragons and ghosts and winged beings from heavenly realms．

    　　Even today, as we enter the new age, the old fears remain．Instead of dragons and ghosts and lost civilizations like Atlantis, however, modern terrors include UFOs, tropical plagues(瘟疫)and killer asteroids from the far reaches of space．

    　　Anyone who thinks we have outgrown our old fears and fascination for the unknown need only visit a bookstore or tune in to cable television．Many of these popular books and programs deal with angels, ghosts, lost civilizations, UFOs, doomsday comets and other mysteries．

    　　Wouldn't it be wonderful, I used to think deeply, if someone came along and did a book about the mysteries－a kind of no-nonsense summary that gives us a brief but thorough overview of the word's greatest mysteries of science, religion, folklore and history?

    　　Fortunately, such a book has now appeared－E．Randall Floyd's startlingly clear and concise 100 of the World's Greatest Mysteries：Strange Secrets of the Past Revealed．From the Big Bang and rise of man to death-dealing asteroids and spontaneous human destruction by fire, this book covers them all, an amazing range of facts, figures and human drama, all told from a seasoned journalist's perspective．

    　　Mr．Floyd, a former European correspondent for United Press International, professor of history, motion pictures screenwriter and author of more than a dozen-best-selling books, says the idea for the book originated with his nationally syndicated newspaper column, Strange Encounters．He spent five years researching and writing the book．
