24、egins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education we
25、re discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that hu
26、man beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in thi
27、s sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one a
28、nother both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children _. A. sensible and sensitive B. competitive and interested C. curious and friendly D. happy and co-operative（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Some
29、Americans complain about elementary schools because they think _. A. children are reluctant to help each other B. schools lay too much emphasis on co-operation C. children should grow up with competitive ideas D. schools give little actual instruction to children（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The authors atti
30、tude towards American education can be best described as _. A. favorable B. negative C. tolerant D. unfriendly（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The American educational system emphasizes _. A. material wealth B. competition C. co-operation D. personal benefit（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The word “sociable“ (Line 7, Para

33、 do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks abo
34、ut the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isnt sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he cant make things work out right, he doesnt feel ashamed
35、 that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.If you look at children, youll see great difference between what we call “bright“ children and “not-b
36、right“ children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself an
37、d his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.（分数：10.00）(1).According to this passage, intelligence is _. A. the ability to study well B. the ability to do well in school C. the ability to deal with life D. the ability to get high scores on some tests（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D
38、.(2).In a new situation, an intelligent person _. A. knows more about what might happen to him B. is sure of the result he will get C. concentrates on what to do about the situation D. cares more about himself（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).If an intelligent person failed, he would _. A. try not to feel ashame
39、d B. learn from his experiences C. try to regret as much as possible D. make sure what result he would get（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Bright children and not-bright children _. A. are two different types of children B. are different mainly in their degree of cleverness C. have difference only in their way
40、of thinking D. have different knowledge about the world（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about _. A. how to determine what intelligence is B. how education should be found C. how to solve practical problems D. how an unintelligent person should be taught（

42、 single line through the center.Adam Smith was the first person to see the importance of the division of the labor. He gave us an example of the process by which pins were made in England.One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, and a fifth gives it a
43、head. Just to make the head requires two or three different operations. The work of making pins is divided into about eighteen different operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them.Ten men, Smith
44、 said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4,800 pins a worker. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not have made twenty pins in a day and not even one.There can be no doubt that division of labor is an e
45、fficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this, but he also took it for granted that division of labor is itself responsible for economic growth and development and it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But divis
46、ion of labor adds nothing new. It only enables people to produce more of what they already have.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to _.
