24、An arts program is helping students at some of the lowest performing schools in the United States. The program, called Turnaround Arts, aims to help improve low performing schools by adding music and the arts to the usual study program.
Turnaround Arts was started by Michelle Obama, the wife of former U. S. President Barack Obama. Some money for the program comes from the federal (联邦) government. For the students at attending schools, the program offers a kind of safe place from city neighborhoods. Many of the children come from areas with high crime rates.
Turnaround Arts is a partnership between the federal government and private businesses. Florence Griffith Joyner Elementary is one of the 68 schools in the U. S. taking part in the program. Teachers receive special training and look for ways to add music and the arts into all the classes. Turnaround Arts schools partner with musicians and actors who work with the students. Performers have included Yo-Yo Ma, Sarah Jessica Parker, Elton John and Cameron Diaz.
School headmaster Long noted “The children were so excited and have been so excited because it’s not just about—Go to the board. Do the problem. Turn the page. Read the book; it’s about acting and imitating (模仿) artists and historic characters.” She noted how some students got the chance to act out the process of a caterpillar (毛虫) becoming a butterfly. “I like to act and I like to sing and I like to dance,” said 10-year-old Kayla Driakare.
Long said that Turnaround Arts was only in its first year at the school, and teachers were already seeing results. “We’ve probably suspended (暂时停学) one kid this year. That’s amazing,” she said. “Parents are getting phone calls to come to family arts night, and it’s not just the naughty calls home. It’s for them to come and learn more about what their children are learning. So our parents’ engagement goes up.”
【1】What can be inferred (推断) from what Principal Long said?
A.Students love this program very much.
B.Students can learn how to act from this grogram.
C.This program makes students know science well.
D.Students can perform themselves well during the program.
【2】The underlined word “engagement” in the last paragraph means “________”.
A.the money they should pay
B.the level they can take part in
C.the decision they make
D.the problem they solve
【3】What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To advertise for a project.
B.To introduce an arts program of the USA.
C.To call on people to support some lowest performing schools.
D.To encourage more American schools to take part in Turnaround Arts.
25、When you want to ask your teacher a question during class, what do you do? Do you simply shout out your question as soon as it enters your mind? Or do you raise your hand and wait until the teacher calls your name?
If you politely raise your hand first, it’s probably because your teacher has a rule that regulates (规定) what you are allowed to do when you have a question. Can you imagine what it would be like if everyone can simply talk whenever they want during class? Instead of a peaceful learning environment, a classroom without rules would be chaotic (混乱的)!
When you learn to drive, you’ll realize how many rules you have to follow. The rules for driving share a common purpose (目的) with many rules you must follow in your daily life to keep you safe. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, “No rules, no standards.” If you make a list of the rules you follow each day, you will quickly realize how many of them can keep you safe and make your life more enjoyable as a result.
Although sometimes you feel like a rule is unjust (不公平的), don’t break it. Instead, decide what you can do to change the rule. Working within the rules to change the rules is what you need to do.

26、 The best way of learning a language is using it. The best way of learning English is talking in English as much as possible.
