小题4:crying

小题5:record

题目分析:

小题1:句意:去年我家乡的很多树木都被砍到了。时态是一般过去式,trees和cut是被动关系。因此要用被动语态,cut的过去分词是原型。答案为were cut。

小题2:句意:我听说这部小说很快就会出版。我等不及了。时间状语是soon,因此要用一般将来时。故答案为will come。

小题3:句意:我们一定要尽我们所能的而一切去使我们的地球更加干净安全。此处要用不定式做目的状语,故答案为to make。

小题4:句意:当我听到这个悲伤地故事时,我忍不住哭了。Can’t stop doing sth“忍不住做某事”。

小题5:句意:我比起用笔记下来更愿意把你所说的录下来。Would rather do than do“比起……更愿意做……”,此答案为record。

Most American students go to traditional public schools.There are about 88, 000 public schools, all over the US.Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools.

Charter schools are self-governing.Private companies operate some charter schools.They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools.They receive tax money just as other public schools do.Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning.These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate.

Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing traditional public schools.Local, state, or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach.Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them.Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.

The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools that are failing to educate students.But some education agencies and unions oppose charter schools.One teachers' union has just made public the results of the first national study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools.

The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government's delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress.Union education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than students in regular public schools.
