三、阅读理解。
School systems(制度) are different from country to country.
Unlike us, students, in Singapore, where I am studying, have a flexible(灵活的) timetable. My friend Amanda is a science student. She chose Chinese literature and language, chemistry and economics. She also has to attend general paper(理解与写作课), project work, math and PE lessons. On Friday, Amanda only has one PE, one general paper and one economics lesson. On Thursday, however, she has six lessons. “Gloomy(郁闷的) Thursday，” she said humorously.
Lunchtimes are not fixed, either. On Tuesday, Amanda has lunch at 10：30 a.m. because she has a PE class at noon. On Thursday, since the first four lessons take up the whole morning and the noon, she has lunch at 1：00 p.m. The different lunchtimes solve the problem of longline in the student canteen.
In Singapore students have different lessons in different classrooms while in China we have the same classroom for nearly every lesson. Walking in the school, you always see students rushing toward the next classroom, with their schoolbags on their shoulders. Sometimes the ten-minute-break seems to be too short. I remember on the first day that no sooner had Amanda and I arrived in the classroom than the bell rang. No time to go to the washroom or for snacks.
And another discovery surprised me. Students are allowed to use calculators(计算器) in math exams! The students in Singapore calculate everything using calculators. They even use a calculator to find out the sum(总和) of 200 and 300!
The two school systems have their advantages and disadvantages. I hope the schools in different countries can learn from each other and the world's education make progress.
1. Amanda chose studies all the following subjects except ________．
A. chemistry B. general paper C. physics D. economics
2. Why does Amanda have lunch at 10：30 Because ________．
A. the first four lessons take up the whole morning and the noon
B. she has a PE class at noon
C. she is very hungry
D. both A and C
3. Sometimes the writer thinks that ________．
A. there are not enough breaks in the day
B. breaks are too long
C. breaks are too short
D. students eat too many snacks
4. According to the passage, how do students in Singapore find the sum of 200 and 300
A. Ask other students. B. Ask teachers.
C. Do the sum themselves. D. Use a calculator.
5. The passage says that ________．
A. like us, students in Singapore have a fixed timetable
B. school systems are different from country to country
C. in China we have different classrooms for each lesson
D. the two school systems are different but equally good
