  Surprisingly, no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals, still less the content or quality of that education.Proper records are just not kept.

  The latest survey shows that the extent and type of hospital teaching differ a great deal across the country.It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher.A further quarter have only a part time teacher.The special children’s hospitals in major cities do best; general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off.

  From this survey, one can estimate(估计)that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher and that contact(接触)may be as little as two hours a day.Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all.They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school.If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do maths or number work; without a teacher they would only play games.

  Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child busy, and the latter is often all the teacher can do.Parents referred to many of the teachers as “the library lady” or just “the helper”.

  Children tend to depend on their school friends to keep in touch with school work.Several parents spoke of requests for work being ignored or refused by the school.Once back at school, children rarely get extra teaching, and are told to catch up as best they can.

  Many short stay child patients catch up quickly.But schools do very little to reduce the anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed.

(1)

The author points out that at the beginning of the passage that ________.

[  ]

A.

every child in hospital receives some teaching

B.

not enough is known about hospital teaching

C.

hospital teaching is of poor quality

D.

(2)

It can be inferred from the latest survey that ________.

[  ]

A.

hospital teaching across the country is similar

B.

each hospital has at least one part time teacher

C.

the special children’s hospitals are worst off

D.

only one fourth of the hospitals have full time teachers

(3)

Children in hospital usually turn to ________ in order to catch up with their school work.

[  ]

A.

hospital teachers

B.

schoolmates

C.

parents

D.

school teachers

(4)

[  ]

A.

against children’s receiving education in hospitals

B.

content with the present state of teaching in hospitals

unsatisfied with the present state of hospital teaching

Andy rode slowly on his way to school, day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him.He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.

       He rode along until a strange around drew him to the present.He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens.What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.

       With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously he sped     down the rough road.As the bees came closer, his panic increased.Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇).The last sting had landed him in hospital-and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days.Suddenly, his father’s words came to him.“When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic.Use your brain and think your ways out of it.”

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eyes, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden.Off his bike and into the cool water he dived, disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects. After holding his breath for as long as he could, Andy came up for air and noticed the bees has gone.Dragging himself out of the dam, he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell.Mr. Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.

“You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover, ” laughed his mother with relief.“Thank goodness you didn’t panic.” But Andy did not hear her.He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.

  The report came to the British on May 21,1941.The German battleship Bismarck, the most powerful warship in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean.Her task:to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war- torn English.

  The British had feared such a task.No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower.The Bismarck had eight 15-inch guns and 81 smaller guns.She could move at 30 nautical(航海的)miles an hour.She was believed to be unsinkable.

  However, the British had to sink her.They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck.On May 24, the Hood found the Bismarck.
