三、阅读理解(9*2 = 18分)
A
To most of us, school means classes. teachers. schedules, grades, and tests. But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts. school is very different.
Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want. There are no teachers - only "staff members". The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn. Because children want to learn anyway. "You do not need to say to a three-year - old. ‘Go explore your environment! You can’t stop them! 'says Daniel Greenberg, a founder(创始人)of the school. "But if you make children do what you want all day. they will lose all taste for learning. ’
At Sudbury Valley School, you will find children talking, reading, painting. cooking, working on computers,studying French, playing the piano, climbing trees or just running around. Two boys spent three years just fishing!
The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week.there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote(投票) each - even the four - year - old. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school money, and even which staff they want and do not want any more.
When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students. and 80% of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.

A. learn best when they are doing what they want

七、任务型阅读(10分)
Schoolwork is becoming more and more difficult for students now. Recently, some new rules (规定) have been made to make them have a happy school life.
These new rules are made for schools in Jiangsu province. They include some parts. For example, teachers of primary and junior high schools can't reveal (公布) students' test scores. They should use letters like A and B to grade students' test results
Because of COVID - 19, students spent a long holiday at home. After the new term started, some schools might give more homework or classes to students. But the new rules ask schools not to do that. At the same time, students should have music, sports and art classes as usual.
People have different ideas about the new rues. Yin Fei, a college professor, says some students are not good at studying, but they can do well in other things. So it is good to cancel (取消) scores. But Peng Ming, a teacher in Nanjing, worries about that. He thinks scores are still important. Students need to get high scores to enter good colleges and parents care about their children's scores. So the new rules are not so good for them.
In which place can't teachers reveal students test scores
How should teachers there grade students' test results
Can schools there cancel P. E. classes in the new term
What does Yin Fei think of the new rules
5. Why does Peng Ming worry about the new rules
