23、   Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This, however, has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?

Of course there will always be learning by osmosis (耳濡目染) in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child’s moral literacy is strengthened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue.

I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed (使融入) itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It’s also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.

Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when a student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as, “that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!” we draw out from them the required virtue: “When you’re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?”

【1】The underlined word “philosophy” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to __________.

A.study B.subject

C.motto D.viewpoint

【2】We can infer from the first paragraph that _________.

A.there tends to be disagreement about what character education is

B.most parents are not satisfied with the teaching methods adopted in schools

C.the approach to character education is generally considered different from the approaches to other skills

D.more and more schools are adopting strategies to improve school attendance

【3】Children’s moral literacy get improved when _____________.

A.they have gradually learnt to imitate.

B.they have learnt the importance of role play.

C.they have learnt specific moral qualities one by one.

D.they are given enough time to practice.

【4】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children?

A.Story readings and discussions. B.Osmosis.

C.Taking every opportunity to teach character. D.Role play.

【5】Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?

A.Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years.

B.The author advocates putting virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.

C.Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.

24、   There are around 100 tribes(部落)that live in global isolation, mostly in South America and India. The Sentinelese have lived on one of the Andaman Islands in Eastern India for 60, 000 years. They protect their island by fighting against people from outside. Their language is different from any other known language. Another Andaman tribe is the Jarawa. In the past, they were independent and fought against anybody trying to make contact with them. But in 1998, the Indian government built a road across their land, and since then, they’ve had more contact with the outside world.

Some Amazon tribes avoid contact because of unhappy memories. The Mashco-Piro left their vegetable gardens after rubber companies killed most of their tribe at the beginning of the 20th century. Those who survived became nomadic(游牧的)and started hunting animals in the forest.

The Awa live in the Amazon forests ofBrazil. Out of 350 members, 100 have no contact with the outside world. They left their villages and adopted a nomadic lifestyle around 1850 to escape attacks by Europeans. In the following years, farmers in nearby communities started cutting the trees to expand their farmland. The Awa lost most of their hunting land. The few Amazon tribes that still exist are fighting to keep their traditional way of life.

Survival, an organization that fights for the rights of tribal people, says that uncontacted tribes are the most vulnerable(弱势的)humans on the planet and that’s why their environment should be unavailable to the rest of us. After years of pressure, the organization got Brazil’s government to clear non-natives from the Awa land. All non-Awa people are leaving so the tribe can get their forest back.

But some think it's impossible for tribes to stay isolated forever in a connected world. Contact will be made one day. So the question is：Whose choice should it be, ours or theirs?

【1】What can we learn about the Sentinelese from the first paragraph?

A．They resist contact from the outside world.

B．They speakthe same language as the Jarawa.

C．They are wild about fighting with other tribes.

D．They have got help from the Indian govemment.

【2】Why did the Awa choose a nomadic lifestyle?

A．To protect their hunting land.

B．To search for food sources.

C．To avoid threats from Europeans.

D．To maintain their original way of life.

【3】Which of the following would Survival probably agree with?

A．The tribes should be left undisturbed.

B．The tribes should fight for more living space.

C．The cribes should live in harmony with nature.

D．The tribes should adapt to the connected world.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A．The Nomadic Tribes in the World

B．Seeking Survival of Tribes

C．The Unavailable Tribal Environment

D．Protecting the Tribal Forests
