23、Boris Johnson has said extending the school day is “the right thing to do” and the government is examining how extra hours could be used for additional tuition and activities. In his strongest commitment yet to imposing the extra hours, the prime minister also criticized the work of the former education recovery chief, Sir Kevan Collins, telling ministers that their catch-up schooling plan was not ambitious enough.
Collins once recommended spending about £ 15 bn on education recovery, including extending the school day by 30 minutes. Government officials said the plan was praiseworthy in some aspects. But they also suggested further cash for education catch-up at the autumn spending review, due to the objection that the plan already announced left much to be desired.
Speaking to the education committee chair, Robert Half on, Johnson said: “We’re looking at the evidence, and if Fm absolutely frank with you and the committee, to begin with some of the evidence that was assembled was not as good as it could have been.” The evidence on lengthening the school day wasn’t as powerful as it was on tuition, for instance, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the right thing to do. I do think it’s the right thing to do. Question is how you do it. What sorts of activities do you need? Are they academic? As you rightly say, we’re doing a proper review of all of that to get the evidence that we want. Halfon said he was encouraged by the comments. “We need radical thinking and radical action to tackle the disaster which has befallen children in the last 18 months” he told the Guardian, “If the government is seriously looking at a longer school day as the PM has suggested, that is encouraging.”
Teachers’ unions had warned that plans to extend schooling hours could backfire. Geoff Barton, the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, said: ”We know that quality of teaching is more important than quantity. It will be vital that these proposals are properly resourced and don’t become an unsustainable burden on schools, leaders and teachers. And there will be many questions about exactly what the expectation will be over the content of longer school days.”
【1】What did the government officials think of the plan already announced?
A．It was a good try but limited itself.
B．It was well-designed but poorly conducted.
C．It was inspiring but the evidence was unreliable.
D．It was a failure but the methods deserved praise.
【2】What is Robert Halfon’s attitude toward expanding the school day?
A．Favorable.
B．Opposed.
C．Indifferent.
D．Ambiguous.
【3】Which of the following could be known from the passage?
A．The public has no expectation of the content of longer school days.
B．Quality of teaching should be attached more importance to than quantity.
C．All the work of the former education recovery chief fails to gain affirmation.
D．There are enough powerful evidences to confirm extending the school day is meaningful.
【4】What does the text mainly intend to tell us?
A．Extending the school day is proved to be right to do.
B．All are pulling together to tackle the education problem.
C．Experts are investigating the ways to extend the school day.
D．There are both pros and cons to extending the school day.
24、Have you ever been to the beach? Did you see a man with a headset pointing a long stick at the ground? If so you might have seen a person using a metal detector. People use these tools to find metal.
Metal detectors make magnetic waves. These waves go through the ground. The waves change when they hit metal. Then the tool makes a short high sound. This lets the person with the tool know that metal is close.
The first metal detectors were meant to help miners to dig out minerals such as coal and gold from the earth. They were big and cost a lot of money. They used a lot of power. And worst of all, they didn't work well. People kept trying to make them better.
Metal detectors got smaller. Now they are light and cheap. They also work better. That why people bring them to the beach. They can look for rings in the water or phone in the sand. Metal detectors help them find these things.
Metal detectors also protect people. They help to keep guns out of some places. Guards use special thin sticks to look for knives, guns or metal on a person.
These tools save lives in other ways too. During wars, soldiers plant bombs in the ground, When the war ends, they don't clean them up. This is unsafe for the people who live in those places. So they use metal detectors to find bombs and remove them.
These tools also make clothes safer. I sounds funny, but it's true. Most clothes are made in big factories. Needles are easy to break and get sick in the clothes. They would hurt people. So our clothes are examined carefully by metal detectors.
Let's hear it for metal detectors. They make the world a safe place.
【1】What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A．How metal detectors work.
B．Why magnetic waves change.
C．The danger of metal detectors.
D．The sounds of a metal detector.
【2】What were the first metal detectors used for?
A．Removing bombs.
B．Finding needles in the clothes.
C．Looking for minerals.
D．Searching for dangerous things.
【3】According to the passage, metal detectors can make people feel ______.
A．nervous
B．special
C．safe
D．healthy
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A．Inventor of a Useful Tool
B．Usage of Metal Detectors
C．Finding Underground Metals
D．Changes of Magnetic Waves

26、阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写, 使之构成一个完整的故事, 词数80左右.
I am Andrew. My best friend Matthew has stopped talking to me. We have been best friends since childhood and play together in the school football team.
Last week, we had an important match against another school. The other team was super. I was determined to win, but Matthew was playing badly. He could not keep pace with the game, and as a result of his careless playing, we lost.
Afterwards, I got really angry with him, and I told him I thought he was not trying hard enough. He got annoyed, saying it wasn’t his fault even if he couldn’t play as well as me, and that I shouldn’t talk to him in this manner. Then we both started shouting at each other and it turned into a horrible argument.
Since we argued, he hasn’t spoken to me even though we sit next to each other in class. It’s really awkward. He is usually cheerful and outgoing, but he has been really quiet and looks sad. The things he said hurt me too, but he has not apologized to me.
One day, we met at the school door.
