For students at The Farm School in Hamilton, Virginia, the classroom is outside-every day.
Jaclyn Jenkins is a founder of the school. "The number one question immediately we get from parents is ‘what happens if it rains?’ And we say, ‘Bring an extra pair of clothes!’" Jenkins adds, "We still educate them. They also get energy. Their brains are working when they re moving. So, our goal is to always be outside."
The Farm School is a preschool-a place for three-and four-year-olds to learn and play. Teacher Alison Huff has taught at other schools. She says The Farm School gives its students more of a hands-on learning experience. For example, children use pumpkins to learn about colors and counting. They learn about measurements by planting seeds 30 centimeters apart. Huff says "We can use everything a regular preschool uses, but out in the garden."
Apart from planting vegetables and fruits, students help prepare food and clean up afterward. The school teaches the children to cook using the food they have grown. "They can see the advantages of what they have in the garden and taste it then instead of going to the grocery store
and buying it," Huff says.
The preschoolers also lean words in languages other than English. Huff speaks in both English and Spanish. Her assistant speaks French and Arabic. She adds that a 3-year-old in her class speaks four different languages.
Farm animals are also an important part of the education program. Jaclyn Jenkins says the children learn about a different animal every month. Two months ago, she says, that animal was a cow. The children spent another month with a large bird-a turkey.
The children come home with new experiences, new knowledge and sometimes a few vegetables.
21. What worries parents most about the school?
A. Children have to learn outside.
B. There are too many things to learn.
C. How to deal with it when it rains.
D. Whether there are enough teachers.
22. What may the underlined word "hands-on" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Useful.
B. Practical.
C. Attractive.
D. Reliable.
23. Which is part of the education program of the school?
A. Counting and measuring.
B. Raising animals.
C. Buying fruits and vegetables.
D. Cleaning the farm.
24. Which of the following statements is true about the school?
A. Children have to cook for themselves.
B. Children in the school learn by doing.
C. Playing outside is the most important.
D. The goal is to have the children stay outside.
B
November 11 is Veterans Day in the United States. A "veteran" is anyone who has served in the armed forces. The term "veteran" is not just for those who have served in wars. It describes anyone who has ever been in the army.
On November11, people hold ceremonies(仪式) and parades(游行) to mark Veterans Day. Public officials take part in the events. Army bands play. And soldiers fire guns into the air to remember those who died in service to their country.
The history of Veterans Day relates to World War I. Many people at the time called it "the war to end all wars." The United States entered the fighting in Europe in 1917. Over 13 million men and women were reported for duty in the army. World War I ended at 11 o'clock in the morning on November 11, 1918. The following year, President Woodrow Wilson signed an official statement to celebrate November 11th as Armistice Day in the United States. It would be a day to honor the men and women who had served in the U.S. armed forces during the war. In 1926, Congress made Armistice Day a national holiday.
But new problems were on the way. Soon, everyone knew that World War I would not be the war to end all wars. In all, more than 4,000,000 Americans served in the armed forces during the first World War. And 16 million would serve during the second one.
Armistice Day in 1945 was a special day in the United States. Germany had surrendered in May 1945 and Japan in August. Most men and women who had served in the war were home. So, instead of honoring just veterans of World War I, Americans also honored veterans of World War II. In 1954, Congress decided to change the name of Armistice Day. The holiday became Veterans Day.
25. Who does Veterans Day honour?
A. Those who lost their lives in wars.
B. Those who served in the wars.
C. Those who served in the army.
D. Those who served in the army in World War I.
26. Why was November 1l made Veterans Day?
A. Because World War I ended at 11: 00 on November 11.
B. Because Woodrow Wilson signed a statement to celebrate it.
C. Because the USA entered the war on November 11.
