Anyone who cares about what schools and colleges teach and how their students learn will be interested in the memoir(回憶錄)of Ralph W. Tyler, who is one of the most famous men in American education.
Born in Chicago in 1902, brought up and schooled in Nebraska, the 19-year-old college graduate Ralph Tyler became hooked on teaching while teaching as a science teacher in South Dakota and changed his major from medicine to education.
Graduate work at the University of Chicago found him connected with honorable educators Charles Judd and W. W. Charters, whose ideas of teaching and testing had an effect on his later work. In 1927, he became a teacher of Ohio State University where he further developed a new method of testing.
Tyler became well-known nationality in 1938, when he carried his work with the Eight-Year Study from Ohio State University to the University of Chicago at the invitation of Robert Hutchins.
Tyler was the first director of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford, a position he held for fourteen years. There, he firmly believed that researchers should be free to seek an independent(獨(dú)立的)spirit in their work.
Although Tyler officially retired in 1967, he never actually retired. He served on a long list of educational organizations in the United States and abroad. Even in his 80s he traveled across the country to advise teachers and management people on how to set objectives(目標(biāo))that develop the best teaching and learning within their schools. 68. Who are most probably interested in Ralph W. Tyler’s memoir?
A. Top managers. B. Language learners.
C. Serious educators. D. Science organizations.
69. The words “hooked oh teaching” underlined in Paragraph 2 probably mean ________.
A. attracted to teaching B. tired of teaching
C. satisfied with teaching D. unhappy about teaching
70. Where did Tyler work as the leader of a research center for over 10 years?
A. The University of Chicago. B. Stanford University.
C. Ohio State University. D. Nebraska University.
71. Tyler is said to have never actually retired because ____________.
A. he developed a new method of testing B. he called for free spirit in research
C. he was still active in giving advice D. he still led the Eight-Year Study
68. C 69. A 70. B 71. C
68. 解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Anyone who cares about what schools and colleges teach and how their students learn will be interested in the memoir of Ralph W.Tyler,”得知關(guān)心學(xué)校和大學(xué)教育的人會(huì)對(duì)Tyler的回憶錄感興趣。
69. 解析:這是一道詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段“...Tyler became hooked on teaching while teaching as a science teacher in South Dakota and changed his major from medicine to education.”可知他原來(lái)的專(zhuān)業(yè)是藥學(xué),在South Dakota 做科學(xué)教師時(shí)被吸引到教育行業(yè)。
70. 解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)第五段“Tyler was the first director of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford,a position he held for fourteen years”可以推斷出他在Stanford University領(lǐng)導(dǎo)研究工作長(zhǎng)達(dá)十年以上。
71. 解析:這是一道推斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Even in his 80s he traveled across the country to advise teachers and management people on how to set objectives...”可以推斷出他退休后還在指導(dǎo)其他教師,所以說(shuō)他沒(méi)有真正退休。

It seems that there are a larger number of beggar in

we should help

poor. However, minutes later, I saw him bought

anyone who

want to live a better living, they should learn
