Life learning(sometimes called un-schooling or self-directed learning)is one of those concepts that are almost easier to explain by saying what it isn't, than what it is. And that's probably be-cause our own schooled backgrounds have convinced us that learning happens only in a dedicated building on certain days, between certain hours, and managed by a specially trained professional.
Within that schooling framework, no matter how hard teachers try and no matter how good their textbooks ，many bright students get bored，many slower students struggle and give up or lose their self-respect, and most of them reach the end of the process unprepared to enter into society. They have memorized a certain body of knowledge long enough to rush back the information on Tests，but they haven't really learned much, at least of the official curriculum.
Life learners, on the other hand, know that learning is not difficult, that people learn things quite easily if they're not compelled and forced, if they see a need to learn something, and if they are trusted and respected enough to learn it on their own timetable, at their own speed, in their own way. They know that learning cannot be produced in us and that we cannot produce it in others-no matter what age and no matter whether we're at school or at home.
Life learning is independent of time, location or the presence of a teacher. It does not require mom or dad to teach, or kids to work in workbooks at the kitchen table from 9 to noon from Sep-tember to June. Life learning is learner-driven. It involves living and leaming-in and from the re- al world. It is about exploring, questioning, experimenting, making messes, taking risks without fear of making mistakes, being laughed at and trying again.
Furthermore, life learning is about trusting kids to learn what they need to know and about helping them to learn and grow in their own ways. It is about providing positive experiences that enable children to understand the world and their culture and to interact with it.
51.1t is implied in the text that it is hard to _______ .
[A] carry life learning through
[B] tell the nature of life learning
[C] learn without going to school
[D] find a specially trained teacher

To understand why someone becomes an optimist or a pessimist, it helps to understand what distinguishes them. Say you crash your car. Do you expect good things to happen after the accident-- an easy recuperation(挽回损失), a fat check from your insurer？ Or do you worry that your neck will hurt forever？
"Optimistic people tend to feel that bad things won' t last long and won' t affect other parts of life, " Seligman says. Pessimists tend to believe one negative incident will last and undermine every thing else in their lives.
Also important, researchers say, is the story you construct about why things happen -- your explanatory style. Optimists believe that bad events have temporary causes -- "The boss is in a bad mood. " Pessimists believe the cause is permanent -- The boss is a jerk. "
This sense of control distinguishes one type from the other. Positive thinkers feel powerful. Negative thinkers, Seligman says, feel helpless because they have learned to believe they' re doomed, no matter what. A young wife who' s told she ' s incapable of handling household finances might later become a divorce woman who can' t balance a checkbook.
Such learned helplessness causes much harm on health. Studies show that optimists are better at coping with the distress associated with everything from sore throat to heart surgery. Furthermore, scientists at U. C. L. A. discovered that optimists have more disease fighting T cells.
Pessimists also don' t believe in preventive care. Visit a doctor and you might find out you' re sick! My father was rushed to the emergency room for medical conditions that would have been easily treatable if he' d seen a doctor sooner.
The word "undermine" (Para. 2) most probably means ______.

Most episodes of absent-mindedness--forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room--are caused by a simple lack of attention, says Schacter. "You're supposed to remember something, but you haven't encoded it deeply."
Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don't pay attention to what you did because you're involved in a conversation, you'll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe(衣柜). "Your memory itself isn't failing you," says Schacter. "Rather, you didn't give your memory system the information it needed."
Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. "A man can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago, "says Zelinski, "may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox "Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment. and memory relies on just that.
Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. "But be sure the cue is clear and available, "he cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication (药物) with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table--don't leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.
Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you're there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. "Everyone does this from time to time," says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you'll likely remember.
Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important？
A．It helps us understand our memory system better.
B．It enables us to recall something from our memory.
C．It expands our memory capacity considerably.
D．It slows down tile process of losing our memory.

Most of us have perfectly good ears.
So why, then, are we such perfectly awful listeners-listening on the average at a 25% level of efficiency？
The fact is there's a lot more to listening than hearing.
After we hear something, we must interpret it. Evaluate it. And finally respond to it. That's listening.
And it's during this complex process that we run into all kinds of trouble.
For example: We prejudge sometimes even disregard-a speaker based on his appearance or delivery.
We let personal ideas, emotions or prejudices distort what a person has to say.
We ignore subjects we consider too difficult or uninteresting.
And because the brain works four times faster than most people speak, we too often wander into distraction.
Yet as difficult as listening really is, it's the one communication skill we're fiver really taught.
Well, as a corporation with more than 80, 000 employees, we at Sperry are making sure we use our ears to full advantage.
We've set up expanded listening programs that Sperry personnel from our divisions worldwide can attend. Sales representatives, Sperry Univac computer engineers. Even the Chairman of the Board.
We're convinced that effective listening adds a special dimension to what we can do for our customers. And when you speak to someone from Sperry we think you'll be equally convinced.
It's amazing what more than two good ears can do.
What is the company trying to teach its employees to do？
A．To listen to others.
B．To hear others.
C．To cure ear problems.
D．To learn communication skills.

根据下列文章,请回答 26～30 题。
Text 2
More than 30,000 drivers and passengers who sit in the front of the vehicles are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor building. Wearing a seat belt saves lives:it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than a half.
Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you will be fined up to ￡50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver's responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
However, when you're reversing your car, you do not have to wear a seat belt;or when you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle ; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember that you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove that you have been excused from wearing it.
第 26 题 How many people in the front of the vehicles are killed or seriously injured every year？
A．30,000.
B．60,000.
C．Approximately 30,000.
D．Above 30,000.
