30、 of persons about their family folklore. To prepare for these interviews we drew upon our academic backgrounds in folklore and American studies, and upon our personal backgrounds as members of families, in addition, we reviewed the major instruction guides in genealogy, oral history, family history,

31、 and folklore fieldwork. Although these publications were all helpful in some way, no single book was completely adequate since family folklore combines aspects of all the above disciplines. Over time we have developed guidelines and questions that have proven successful for us; we hope that the fol

32、lowing suggestions will be helpful to anyone who wishes to collect the folklore of his or her own family. 51 What would be the topic of the paragraph that would follow this one? （ A） How to gather family folklore （ B） History of the Smithsohian Institution （ C） A description of genealogy （ D） Useful

33、 books on family folklore 52 What can be inferred about the researchers who conducted the interviews? （ A） They were mathematicians and physicists. （ B） They were historians and sociologists. （ C） They had children. （ D） They wrote books. 53 The purpose of this passage is to （ A） motivate （ B） berat

35、ctions. （ D） no guidelines are needed in the interviews. 55 According to the passage, which kind of instructional guide was NOT consulted as a source? （ A） Clinical sociology （ B） Genealogy guides （ C） Oral history （ D） Folklore fieldwork 55 Summerhill began as an experimental school, It is no longe

36、r such; it is now a demonstration school, for it demonstrates that freedom works. When my first wife and I began the school, we had one main idea: to make the school fit the child-instead of making the child fit the school. I had this idea because I had taught in ordinary schools for many years. I k

37、new the other way well. I knew it was all wrong. It was wrong because it was based on an adult conception of what a child should be and of how a child should learn. The other way dated from the days when psychology was still and unknown science. Well, we set out to make a school in which we should a

38、llow children freedom to be themselves. In order to do this, we had to renounce all discipline, all direction, all suggestion, all moral training, all religious instruction. We have been called brave, but it did not require courage. All it required was what we had-a complete belief in the child as a

39、 good, not an evil, being. For almost forty years, this belief in the goodness of the child has never wavered; it rather has become a final faith. My view is that a child is innately wise and realistic. If left to himself without adult suggestion of any kind, he will develop as far as he is capable

40、of developing. But, what is Summerhill like? Well, for one thing, lessons are optional. Children can go to them to stay away from them-for years if they want to. There is a timetable-but only for the teachers. The children have classes usually according to their age, but sometimes according to their

41、 interests. We have no new methods of teaching, because we do not consider that teaching in itself matters very much. Whether a school has or has not a special method for teaching long division is of no significance, for long division is of no importance except to those who want to learn it. And the

42、 child who wants to learn long division will learn it no matter how taught. Children who come to Summerhill as kindergarteners attend lessons from the beginning of their stay; but pupil from other schools vow that they will never attend any beastly lessons again at any time. They play and cycle and

43、get in peoples way, but they fight shy of lessons. This sometimes goes on for months. They recovery time is proportionate to the hatred their last school gave them. Our record case was a girl from a convent. She loafed for three years. The average period of recovery from lesson aversion is three mou

44、ths. Summerhill is probably the happiest school in the world. We have no truants and seldom a case of homesickness. We very rarely have fights-quarrels, of course. I have seldom seen a stand-up fight like the ones we used to have as boys. I seldom hear a child cry, because children when free have mu

45、ch less hate to express than children who are downtrodden. Hate breeds hate, and love breads love. Love means approving of children, and that is essential in any school. You cant be on the side of children if you punish them and storm at them. Summerhill is a school in which the child knows what he

46、is approved of. 56 According to the passage, Summerhill places more emphasis on_. （ A） improving the teaching method. （ B） physical activities than on mental training. （ C） instilling confidence in the child. （ D） freeing the child from heavy burden of lessons. 57 According to the author, the differ

47、ence between Summerhill and other conventional schools is that Summerhill （ A） has a well-planned timetable for the teachers. （ B） treats children as a person. （ C） prevents children from fighting and crying. （ D） helps children recover from depression. 58 Summerhill, according to the passage, is （

48、A） a discipline-centered school. （ B） an instruction-centered school. （ C） a teacher-centered school. （ D） a students-centered school. 59 According to the author, a good school and its teachers should not （ A） set out strict disciplines and punish children. （ B） ignore proper teaching method. （ C） r

49、equire children to attend lessons regularly. （ D） regulate the childrens behavior by adult standard. 60 The approach Summerhill adopts in its education can be termed as being （ A） humanistic. （ B） realistic. （ C） physiological. （ D） psychological. 60 Elle Woods has it all.
