第6题：
For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest writer. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him：that of William Shakespeare.
Every Englishman has some knowledge of his work. All of us use words and phrases from Shakespeare's writings that have become a part of the English-speaking people.
Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand!
There is probably no better way for a foreigner (or an Englishman!) to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare uses it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners), even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare's day.
1). From the first two sentences of the passage we can conclude that ________.
A. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest dramatist
B. Shakespeare is regarded as the greatest writer
C. Englishmen like to discuss about who is the world's greatest writer
D. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest poet
2). According to the passage many English words and phrases that we use today are from _____.
A. Englishmen
B. English speaking people
C. Shakespeare's works
D. ancient people
3). To learn the richness of the English language, people should ______.
A. write and read more
B. be glad to be a foreigner
C. learn from an English man
D. read Shakespeare's plays
4). The author does not suggest beginners reading Shakespeare's plays probably because _____.
A. only Englishmen can understand his plays
B. some of English usage and the meaning of many words have changed
C. the works are too difficult for a beginner
D. the works are for native speakers
5). In this passage the author wants to _______.
A. tell how great a writer Shakespeare is
B. tell that some aspects of English usage have changed since Shakespeare's day
C. tell that some English words are out of use now
D. show the richness of English language

第10题：
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把...按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop their leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work; it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.
The writer's purpose in writing this passage is to

B．recommend pair work and group work for classroom activities
C．offer advice on the proper use of the library
D．emphasize the importance of appropriate formal classroom teaching
