They study hard and do extremely well on achievement tests. And next year, Rowena will be attending Harvard University. Billy, her younger brother, hopes to go to Cornell. What makes Rowena and Billy different from most students is that they dont go to school. In fact, theyve never been to school. Since kindergarten, theyve studied at home. Neither Rowena nor Billy feels as if theyve missed out on anything by being taught at home. Like many of more than one million people who receive home schooling in the United States, they feel as if theyve gotten a good education. The home-schooling trend began in the U. S. in the 1980s with parents keeping their children out of public schools so they could provide religious education at home. Today, as the home-schooling trend continues to grow, parents are more likely to consider home schooling as an option because they believe schools dont do a very good job of teaching and are occasionally dangerous places. But can parents really do a better job The answer in many cases is yes. In many studies, students taught at home ranked average or above average when compared to students who went to public schools. More importantly, these students were often more self-directed and have a greater depth of knowledge. "They are very well prepared for academic challenges," says Patricia Riordan, the dean of admissions at George Mason University. One such student, Robert Conrad, now a sophomore at university, claims he really learned how to study and schedule his time during his eight years of home schooling. Still, not every student is as successful as Robert. "For every home-schooling success story, there are an equal number of failures," states Henry Lipscomb, an educational researcher. "There are just so many disadvantages that students taught at home have to overcome. " For example, they have fewer chances to interact with others of their own age. Consequently, they sometimes lack the usual social skills. "No matter what, though," states Lipscomb, "home-schooling is a growing trend. I think well be seeing more and more of this. "Compared with other students, the most different thing Rowena and Billy do is that_. Athey study hardBthey do extremely well on achievement testsCthey never go to schoolDthey feel they have gotten a good education 13.I Questions 11 to 14 are based on the following dialogue between two passengers on their flight to Beijing./IWhy does the man come to BeijingABecause he wants to visit his grandma.BBecause hes on his honeymoon.CBecause hes going to watch the Olympics in Beijing.DBecause he wants to do some sightseeing in Beijing. 14.

At a simple level, these can include robot vacuum cleaners that "decide" what to react to human behaviors without human intervention. The University of the West of Englands David McGoran takes his Heart Robot on a touchy feely tour, allowing it to come face to face with a spider-like robot built by Matt Denton of Micromagic Systems. Both robots are being displayed at the London Science Museum until July 31st. The heart robot that "enjoys" being hugged and stroked could be among the first robots to signify a new era of "emotional machines" used for medical treatment and enjoyment, according to one of its inventors. It has a beating heart which rises when the body is shaken, but slows down when treated calmly. In addition, Hearts eyes flutter in response to touch. David McGoran, of the University of the West of England, predicts the part-puppet, part-machine creation he helped develop is an example of how robots will increasingly adopt human characteristics. "Right now were seeing the first implementations in toys, "he told BBC News. "There are little robotic dinosaurs. Theres a new robotic toy from the film Wall-E thats coming out, and thats a very expressive robot." Nevertheless he believes there could be major implications for social care, with research already taking place into giving elderly care homes robots that express emotions. "This raises really interesting social and ethical questions," said Mr. McGoran. He added that there could be many benefits, particularly for people taking medical treatment. "If scientists can put this natural interface into robots then it would be much easier for us to relate to robots. " The Heart Robot is on display alongside a face-tracking insect-like robot. The "ic Hexapod" by Micromagic Systems has been programmed to recognize human facial features and follow people as they move around. It tracks human faces and takes photos. Like the Heart Robot, it is billed as an example of the increasingly sophisticated ways in which machines are able to recognize and mimic human behavior.Mr. McGoran went to London because_. Ahe wants to take his robot on a touchy feely tourBhe wants to see Matt DentonChe wants to show the spider-like robotDheart robot will be displayed there 17.BText 2/B A smile is a strong sign of a friendly and open attitude and a willingness to communicate. It is a positive, silent sign sent with the hope the other person will smile back. When you smile, you show you have noticed the person in a positive way. The result That person will usually smile back. You might not realize a closed position is the cause of many conversational problems. A common closed position is sitting with your arms and legs crossed and your hand covering your mouth or chin. This is often called the "thinking pose". Ask yourself this question: Are you going to interrupt someone who appears to be deep in thought This position gives off "stay away" signs and prevents your main "sign sender" (your mouth) from being seen by others looking for inviting conversational signs. The open body position is most effective when you place yourself within communicating distance of the other personthat is, within about five feet. Take care, however, not to enter someones "personal space" by getting too close, too soon. Leaning forward a little while a person is talking shows your interest and how you are listening to what the person is saying. By doing this, you are saying: I hear what youre saying, and Im interested inkeep talking! Often people will lean back with their hands over their mouth, chin, or behind their head in the "thinking" pose. This position gives off signs of judgment, doubt, and lack of interest from the listener. Since most people do not feel comfortable when they think they are being judged, this leaning-back position serves to prevent the speaker from continuing. In many cultures the most common form of first contact between two people is a handshake. Be the first to extend your hand in greeting. Couple this with a friendly "Hello", a nice smile, and your name and you have made the first step to open the lines of communication. Eye contact should be natural, not forced or overdone. Direct eye contact shows you are listening to the other person and that you want to know about her.A person smiles to show_.
