This way they can ensure their safety and wellbeing, although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge of the safety of the students. The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children's time. They want to do everything they watch on TV and never think of the consequences, and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher. On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the childrens results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results. When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he cant probably see what each of them is doing, how he is writing, or if he understands the explanations. At home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesnt understand as many times as he considers proper. And many times the child grows fond of the teacher at home, who becomes his best friend, and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to.However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home, because school makes children communicate and socialize. Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him only makes the child's character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is. Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child. All in all, schools have been created to help children, not to harm them, so it's best to keep children in these special places, where they learn, laugh, have fun and make new friends.36The writer's purpose in writing the text is to_.A. teach parents the ways to keep their children safeB. show solutions to developing children's characterC. explain the main reason for violence acts in schoolsD. analyze an education problem and give opinions37Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Advantages and Disadvantages of Private ClassesB. Who is to Blame, Parents or Schools? C. Which Is Better, School Study or Home Study? D. The Relationship between Teachers and Children 38What does “a crystal ball” in the passage refer to?A. A toy that can be used for entertainment. B. A safe and comfortable environment. C. A round object that is made of crystal. D. An obstacle that is hard to overcome. 39We can infer from the passage that_.A. violence TV programs have bad effects on children's behaviorB. the teacher at home is more patient than the teacher at schoolC. children today are weak from lack of sense of right and wrongD. there are too many students in class for a teacher to teachBApply early to assure your place!

D. $ 6,100.C If you've ever seen the movie Up,you probably remember that the main character flies into the air in a house tied to balloons. On November 18, North Carolina adventurer Jonathan Trappe brought that movie to life. At a Mexico balloon festival, he flew to the sky in a tiny house tied to a cluster of helium (氦) balloons.He performed a similar marvel in March 2011, floating 10,000 feet above the ground as part of an event sponsored by National Geographic. But this time, Trappe reached an altitude of more than 20,000 feet.Flying with helium balloons is called cluster ballooning.In 2010, Trappe became the first person to fly across the English Channel using helium balloons. He also holds records for crossing the Alps using helium balloons, for flying with the most helium balloons, and for flying the longest distance with helium balloons230 miles.Next summer, Trappe will attempt to become the first person to cross the Atlantic Ocean using helium balloons. On that journey, he will fly in a sevenfoot lifeboat carried by 365 balloons. Trappe predicts the 2,500mile flight from Maine to France will take three to six days to complete. He will reach an altitude of up to 25,000 feet.“Five people have died attempting to cross the Atlantic with hotair balloons, and no one has ever tried it using a cluster of helium balloons,”Trappe said.“I am looking at an epic(漫长而艰难的) challenge.”To stay safe on his trip, Trappe has been working with four scientists to identify potential dangers and figure out how to handle them. Trappe will carry food and water on his flight. He will wear an oxygen mask at the highest altitudes to help him breathe. The boat will have a canopy (遮篷) to protect against cold winds, and Trappe will wear a special suit to block the sun's UV rays. If something goes wrong, he will change into a coldwater suit, pop some balloons to bring the boat near the water, and try to land in the ocean. Trappe is learning to sail the boat in case that happensbut he is working very hard to make sure that it doesn't.44What do we know about Trappe's flight on November 18?A. He was inspired by a scene of the movie Up.B. It was sponsored by National Geographic.C. He didn't think he could make it at first.D. He reached an altitude of over 20,000 feet.45Why did the author mention Trappe's flight experience in Paragraph 3 ?A. To show that flying with helium balloons is Trappe's passion.B. To show that flying across the Alps is Trappes biggest dream.C. To prove that Trappe is the first person to fly with helium balloons.D. To prove that flying with helium balloons is difficult.46From what Trappe said in Paragraph 5, we can infer that _.A. flying with helium balloons across the Atlantic Ocean is not an easy thingB. flying with hotair balloons is more dangerous than flying with helium balloonsC. he tries to fly across the Atlantic Ocean with hotair balloonsD. several people have died wile flying with helium balloons across the Atlantic Ocean47What measures will Trappe take to ensure safety when he flies across the Atlantic Ocean?a.
