问题阅读理解

Would you like to experience what going to school was like in the late 1800s? to start with, imagine everyone in school only one classroom.

In the 19^th and early 20^th centuries, most American students went to a one-room schoolhouse. A single teacher would typically(典型地) have students in the first through eighth grades, and she taught them all. The number of students varied from six to 40 or more. The youngest children sat in the front, while the oldest students sat in the back. The teacher usually taught reading, writing, arithmetic, history, and geography. Students memorized(记忆) and retold their lessons.

The classroom of a one-room schoolhouse probably looked much like your own. The teacher’s desk stood on a raised platform(讲台) at the front of the room, however, and there was a wood-burning stove since there was no other way of heating. The bathroom was outside in an outhouse.

In Honeoye Falls, New York, there is a one-room schoolhouse where kids today can experience what it was like to the students in the late 19^th century. For a week during the summer, they wear 19^th century clothes and learn the way children learned more than a hundred years ago.

What else has changed about school since the 19^th century? For more information, please visit our website: www. Locallygacy.com.
