10、 sat in the library and just talked. He told me that his 44 was to pass the fifth grade and not be suspended(停学). Finally, the last day of school arrived. David had met his goal.During Teacher Appreciation(感谢) Week, the students had written about any teacher they wanted. In my booklet, on a piece of

14、 tears.“ I have so take a test tomorrow. I dont understand any of it,“ she cries out. After shouting and shutting her door, she calms down enough to go through her notes. The following dry I ask her how the test went and the just says “OK, I got a nine“.“Wow. well done!“ I say, before she finishes w
15、ith “But I never get a ten!“According to James, this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development, whichencourages people to think of education in terms of work and money. To test this, I asked my daughter why she was so worried about her tests. She looked at me as if I was thick. “We
16、ll, if I dont get good grades, I wont be able to afford nice things like a car and stuff.“I was quite surprised, because I dont consider myself a pushy parent. But James suggestsand it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright. He points to the Danish system(体制)of education as a
17、better model. Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seen as more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business.For me, I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle, recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules, yet I have lived a happy l
18、ife. What I really needed to learnat school was how to make polite conversations, or how to avoid getting into debt or how todevelop good personality.This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind. And he is looking for schools where students are encouraged to find and follow their
19、own interests, something more like Tongjon. Tongjon has been developed in some Korean private schools. It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea, and indeed in many other school systems around the world.As the Russian poet Pushkin said, “Inspi
20、ration(灵感)is needed in geometry(几何学)just asmuch as in poetry “, and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or getting worried about them .46.What does the writer probably think of his/her daughter?A.She sets herself a goal too high to reach.

24、e astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without falling down?There are two opposite forces (力量) acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitation (地心引力), which tries to p
25、ull the satellite towards the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋转) of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth (the force which pulls ev
26、erything towards the ground) is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than th
27、e force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (坠落) down to the earth. 51.

29、 tie the satellites tightly.54.
