Ⅳ.阅读理解
What the school of the future will be like is unknown, but most educators and observers agree that the future school will go electronic (电子的) with a capital E.
“This century, schools as we know them will no longer exist, ” says a feature in The Age publication, based in Melbourne, Australia.“In their place will be community-style centers operating seven days a week, 24 hours a day.” Computers will become a necessary part for an effective school of the future.
Students, The Age says, will see and hear teachers on computers, with “remote learning”，the trend of tomorrow. Accessing “classrooms” on their home computers, students will learn at times most convenient for them. Yet some attendance (参加) at an actual school will be required to help students develop right social skills.
At Seashore Primary School, an imaginary school of the future created by the
Education Department of Australia, technology is the thing that holds classes together. At the imaginary Seashore school：
◆all teachers and students have laptop computers.
◆teachers check voicemail and return students' calls on a special telephone system.
◆students use telephones to find information or speak to experts in subject areas they are studying.
◆all lessons are multidisciplinary (涉及多门学科的).
◆all students have individual learning plans created by teachers.
As Seashore's acting headmaster says, a laptop computer is the students' “library, homework, data storage, and connection to the wider world”．Technology has changed the emphasis (重点) to the learning of kids rather than the teaching of kids.
语篇解读：随着网络与电脑的发展，难以想象未来的学校会是什么样子。
1．________ will be very popular in the future.
A．Classroom learning B．Internet learning
C．Telephone learning D．Remote learning
解析：选 D 细节理解题。从原文第三段中的“‘remote learning’， the trend of tomorrow”可知，远程学习将成为将来的流行趋势。
2．In the future, students should go to school sometimes to________.
A．hand in their homework
B．have an examination
C．develop right social skills
D．discuss problems with their teachers
解析：选C 细节理解题。即使将来学生们可以在家学习，但有时还必须去现实生活中的学校去接受正确的社交技能的培养。这从原文第三段末的“Yet some attendance (参加) at an actual school will be required to help students develop right social skills.”可知。
3．From the passage we can learn that________.
A．Seashore Primary School is a famous school situated in Melbourne
B．students will do their homework on the computers in the future
C．students have the same learning plans made by their teachers
D．students will have lessons from Sunday to Saturday
解析：选 B 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“a laptop computer is the students' ‘library, homework ...’ ”可知“笔记本电脑是学生的图书馆、家庭作业、数据存储器，
以及与更广阔世界的联系(纽带)”，因此B项正确。
