The Monster of Lake Tianchi
The "Monster of Lake Tianchi" in the Changbai Mountains in Jilin province, northeast China, is back in the news after several recent sightings. The director of a local tourist office, Meng Fanying, said the monster, which seemed to be black in colour, was ten metres from the edge of the lake during the most recent sighting. "It jumped out of the water like a seal—about 200 people on Changbai's western peak saw it," he said. Although no one really got a clear look at the mysteriouscreature, Xue Junlin, a local photographer, claimed that its head looked like a horse.
In another recent sighting, a group of soldiers claim they saw an animal moving on the surface of the water. The soldiers, who were walking along the side of the lake, watched the creature swimming for about two minutes. "It was greenish-black and had a round head with 10-centimetre horns", one of the soldiers said.
A third report came from Li Xiaohe, who was visiting the lake with his family. He claims to have seen a round black creature moving quickly through the water. After three or four hundred metres it dived into the water. Ten minutes later the monster appeared again and repeated the action. Mr Li Xiaohe said that he and his family were able to see the monster clearly because the weather was fine and the lake was calm.
There have been reports of monsters in Lake Tianchi since the beginning of the last century, although no one has seen one close up. Some photos have been taken but they are not clear because it was too far away. Many people think the monster may be a distant cousin of the Loch Ness monster in Scotland. They also think that there might be similar creatures in other lakes around the world. Scientists, however, are sceptical. They say that the low-temperature lake is unlikely to be able to support such large living creatures.
Lake Tianchi is the highest volcanic lake in the world. It is 2,189 metres high and covers an area of about ten square kilometres. In places it is more than 370 metres deep.

Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize (記住) some facts or a formula (公式). It is usually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.   Above all, they knew how to use their brains.
小題1: Whether he is more ________or less, a teacher can’t teach his students everything they want to know.
A．importantB．usefulC．difficultyD．knowledgeable (有知識(shí)的)
小題2:A teacher’s job is mainly to train his students to master the ability of __________.
A．learning by themselvesB．making a living
C．reading and thinkingD．studying all the subjects
小題3: The reason for scientists’ success is that _______.
A．they read books that were not taught at schoolB．they worked all their lives
C．they wasted not a single momentD．they knew how to use their brains

Determined to make school more related to the workplace, Roosevelt High School in Portland, Oregon, developed a school-to-work program. In their first year, students are offered some job pathways in natural resources, human services, health care, business, arts and communication. The following year, each student chooses one of the pathways and examines it in depth, spending three hours a week watching someone on the job. Such a program is also in practice in some other states.
The school-to-work program is built around a partnership(伙伴關(guān)系). For example, Eastman Kodak, a major employer（雇主） in Colorado, introduces students to business by helping them construct（建設(shè)） a model city using small pieces of wood. “The children use the models to decide on the best place to set up schools,” says Lucille Mantelli , director for Eastman Kodak in Colorado.  Kodak introduces math by teaching fifth graders to use their pocket money properly.  They also provide one-on-one job watching experiences and offer chances of practice for high school juniors and seniors. “Students come to the workplace two or three hours a week,” explains Mantelli. “They do the job for us. We pay them and they get school credits (學(xué)分). We also give them our views on their performance and developmental opportunities.”
In these partnerships, everybody wins. The students tend to（傾向于） take more difficult courses than students in schools that don’t offer such programs. Business benefits（獲益） by having a better prepared workforce needed in future years. “It’s a way for us to work with the school systems to develop the type of workforce we’ll need in future years,” Mantelli continued. “We need employees who understand the basics of reading and writing. We need them to be good at math and to be comfortable working on a team.”
“Our theory is that they can learn as much outside the classroom as in. All students have the ability to change the world, not just to live in it. To do that, they have to know how to solve problems and use critical（批判的）thinking skills. We need to encourage them to dream about jobs that go beyond what they see today,”  concludes（得出結(jié)論） a school-to-work program organizer.
58. Using the example of Eastman Kodak in Colorado, the writer shows us ____.
A. what the school decides to do 
B. why the students get paid for their jobs 
C. where the students have their math class 
D. what role the business plays in the program
59. The main purpose of the school-to-work program is to _____.
A. offer students more difficult courses             
B. introduce new job opportunities to schools
C. improve relations between students and teachers 
D. make what students learn in school related to the workplace
60. According to the text, Lucille Mantelli is ____.
A. a math teacher                 B. a school designer      
C. a company manager          D. a program organizer
61. What does the writer mean by saying “…everybody wins.” (Paragraph 3)?
A. Students get school credits by taking examinations.
B. Both students and business benefit from the program.                  
C. The working conditions of the company have improved greatly.
D. Every teacher and student gets paid for working outside the school.
