    Letting kids leave their homework at school is becoming popular in the UK. Several other schools are welcoming the policy and are taking similar measures (措施).Tiffin Boy's school has started giving students less homework. Students now spend less time on homework.

  • 26、When I was in third grade, I watched a video that was about the discovery of King Tutankhamen’s tomb(坟墓). I remember Howard Carter looking the tomb carefully through a narrow hole with a candle. A workman asked what he could see. “Wonderful things!” Carter said. From that moment, I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

    Today, I’m lucky to work as an archeologist(考古学家). I study the lives of people who lived in Egypt(埃及). It’s exciting work. Sometimes you find something that was buried(埋葬) three thousand years ago. Holding a piece of history is an amazing feeling.

    So I decided what I wanted to be at the age of nine, and I made it happen. Seems easy, right? Not quite! The road wasn’t easy. I did my studies—university, then a PhD. But along the way I was told many things: I was too young, I couldn’t make it. I should get married and have kids. I also needed money, so I asked for six grants(拨款). The first five replies I got said no. Six months later, the last reply came: This time it was yes. Finally, I could start my own work.

    For anyone thinking about a career(事业), I would say: Never give up. If you want to do something, keep trying. If people tell you no, use that—it will push you. At the beginning, it hurts. But the next no hurts a little less. It makes you stronger and actually helps you.

    Second, focus on your goals. And I stress yours. You don’t have to follow other people. If they say something has never been done, make it happen. You may be the first to do it! There are always challenges, but you overcome them in the end.

    【1】In paragraph 1, the writer wants to ________.

    A.describe what was found inside the tomb

    B.explain the challenges the writer faced at school

    C.explain how the writer became interested in being an archeologist

    D.describe what kind of work an archeologist did in their hard research

    【2】Which of the following happened first?

    A.The writer applied for a grant.

    B.The writer went to university.

    C.The writer decided to be an archeologist.

    D.The writer got married and have children.

    【3】Which of the following is NOT the challenge the writer faced?

    A.The writer was too young to be an archeologist.

    B.It was difficult to get money to support the work.

    C.The writer needed to take care of family members.

    D.Others didn’t believe the writer could make it happen.

    【4】What does the underlined word “focus” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?

    A.聚焦

    B.向往

    C.调整

    D.设立

    【5】What’s the best title of this passage?

    A.A day being an archeologist.

    B.What does an archeologist do?

    C.The discovery of old tombs.

    D.Following a childhood dream.

  • 27、One day, I happened to meet an Englishman in a store and soon we began to talk.
