Question

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(記憶) 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(講臺) 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.

試題分析：本文敘述了19世紀到20世紀初期的學校情況。在那時，學校里只有一間教室，只有一個老師。老師要教從一年級到八年級的所有學生，講授所有的科目。在教室里，年齡最小的學生坐在最前面，最大的坐在后面。講桌在教室前面高出的講臺上，在講臺前還有一個火爐。今天孩子們可以在紐約的Honeoye Falls體驗一下19世紀晚期學生學習的方式。
小題1:詞義猜測題。根據from six to 40 or more可知學生的人數是從六個到四十多個，這是一個不固定的數，因此是變化的。故選A。
小題2:細節理解題。根據The teacher usually taught reading, writing, arithmetic, history, and geography. 可知在19世紀晚期，學生學習閱讀，寫作，算術，歷史和地理。故選C。
