Few students like it, but homework is an important part of secondary school life in the UK.
The UK has these government guidelines (指导方针)for homework: Grades 7 and 8 (ages 11 to 13): 45 to 90 minutes a day; Grade 9 (ages 14 to 15): 1 to 2 hours a day.
Today, many homework tasks are done on a computer, for example, preparing reports, searching for information or doing online tasks. So schools are usually open before and after classes. This way, students without computers or Internet at home can use the schools' facilities (设施).
Sometimes students are given “extended learning tasks”. This means they need to do more researches, especially when working on a history or an art project. But no matter how big the task is, teachers will always give feedback (反馈). They help students find areas where they can improve.
Some schools send students home with a homework diary. They encourage parents to check their children' s progress. Other schools have websites that parents can use to track their children' s performance every day.
Sadly, not every parent takes an interest in it. In a survey of 1,000 students aged 11 to 18, over one in ten said that they did not have space at home to do homework. Almost 15 percent said that their family did not support them enough.
( )1. How long might a 7th grader spend on their homework a day in the UK
A. 60 to 100 minutes. B. 45 to 90 minutes.
C. 90 to 120 minutes. D. 60 to 120 minutes.
B
( )2. What kind of task does NOT need to be done on computers
A. Preparing reports. B. Finishing a test.
C. Searching for information. D. Doing online tasks.
B
( )3. What does the underlined word “extended” mean in the passage
A. more B. shorter
C. busy D. free
A
( )4. How can parents usually check their
children' s progress in the UK
A. By reading the homework diary.
B. By visiting the headmaster.
C. By checking homework.
D. By giving tests.
A
( )5. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Homework for secondary students in the UK is difficult.
B. Computers are necessary for secondary students in the UK.
C. Homework is important for secondary students in the UK.
D. Parents play a big role in helping with their children' s homework.

请阅读下面短文，根据所提供的信息，回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题，并把答案写在横线上。
As PE is included in high school entrance exams(中考)in more and more places around China, some teenagers have their say. Here are some of the opinions posted on the Internet.
I think it will play a positive (积极的)role in students' education. For one thing, doing exercise may become part of their daily life. Students will get used to exercising every day and consider PE classes as a good way to improve their health. During the COVID-19 outbreak, people learned about the importance of immunity (免疫力), which partly comes from daily physical exercise.
—Tian Xu, 15
This project is a good start. When we have a strong body, we are easy to pay attention to our study, which may help us get more knowledge. The hope of getting better scores may push students to exercise harder. They might make an effort to do better in tests. In addition, sports play an important role in giving students a break from schoolwork. Students can have a chance to slow down and refresh themselves.
—Luo Renran, 15
I believe exercising should be encouraged, rather than be forced. What' s more, the new exam system requires some special sports skills. Some sports like soccer are also being added to the PE exam. But while some students have been practicing soccer for a long time, others have never even played it before. Will the exam be fair if the students have different starting lines
—Ji Lanxin, 14
