This way they can ensure their safety and well-being,althoughteachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schoolsby increasing the number of the persons in charge of the safety of the studentsThe main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill thechildrens time They want to do everything they watch on TV and never think ofthe consequences,and they may hurt a classmate or a teacherOn the other hand,parents are not fully satisfied with the childrens resultsobtained 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 eachof them is doing,how he is writing,or if he understands the explanations At homethe teacher can explain in details everything the child doesnt understand as manytimes as he considers proper.And many times the child grows fond of the teacherat home,who becomes his best friend,and who helps him whenever he needs someoneto talk toHowever,the best solution would be a mixture between the education receivedat school and that at home,because school makes children communicate andsocialize Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad tohim only makes the childs character weak and prevents him from knowing what reallife is Staying in a a crystalcrystal ballball only does harm to the childAll in all,schools have been created to help children,not to harm them,soits best to keep children in these special places,where they learn,laugh,havefun and make new friends56 The writers purpose in writing

environmentC A round object that is made of crystalD An obstacle that is hard to overcome59 We can infer from the passage that _A violence TV programs have bad effects on childrens 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 teachB BVisiting London

it.I hadnt touched a cat or a dog in over 20years.I spent at least 20 minutes,knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolledaround,relaxed.When he was expressing outwardly,I was feeling inwardly.It wasan amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching alife or another creature with something as simple as my care.Over the next few days,there were other prisoners responding to the cat.Everyyard period,a group of prisoners gathered there.They stood around talking andtaking turns petting the cat.These were guys you wouldnt usually find talkingto each other.Several times I saw an officer in the group,not chasing people away,but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners.Bowls of milk andwater appeared along with bread,wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keepthe birds from getting it.The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape.People said that thecat came to the right place.Hes getting treated like a king.This was true,butas I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us.There was alot of talk about whats wrong with prisons in America.We need more programs.Weneed more psychologists or treatment of various kinds.Some may even talk about9making prisons more kind.But I think what we really need is a chance to practiceour own kindness.Not receive it,but give it.After more than two decades here,I know kindness is not a value thats encouraged.Its often thought of as aweakness.Instead,the culture encourages keeping your head down,minding your ownbusiness,and never letting yourself be weak.The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here.Bysimply saying,“I need some help here”,he did something important for us.He neededus.And we needed to be needed.I believe we all do.64.From the passage we can learn that the author was.A.an animal protectorB.the owner of the catC.a prisonofficerD.a prisoner65.Which of the following statements is
