was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and

years Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey's writings and his influence on society place him among American's great thinkers Question 17: What does the passage mainly discuss?

relations with other species, and genetic characteristics For example, more emphasis is put on the greater vulnerability of species that reproduce slowly as contrasted with those that reproduce (44)

He's not the only volunteer in his family His sister, Melissa, an eighth grader, has completed her hours also volunteering at Larkin-Chase "It is a good idea to have kids go out into the community, but it's frustrating to have to write essays about the works," she said It makes you feel like you're doing it for the requirement and not for yourself." The high school's service learning office, run by Beth Ansley, provides information on organizations seeking volunteers so that students will have an easier time fulfilling their hours "It's ridiculous that people are opposing the requirements," said Amy Rouse, who this summer has worked at the Ronald McDonald House and has helped to rebuild a church in Clinton "So many people won't the service unless it's mandatory," Rouse said, "but once they start doing it, they'll really like it and hopefully it will become a part of their lives - like it has become a part of mine."

Later, a new machine was invented This device was made to send signals on a special part of the television picture The signals could be captions If a family had another kind of machine in their home or in their TV set, then the captions (or signals) would appear on their television screen Without the machine, no captions would be seen That special machine is called a decoder It receives the

ReadthefollowingpassageandmarktheletterA,B,C,orDonyouranswersheettoindicatethe correct answertoeachofthequestionsfrom38to45 The mineral particles found in soil range in size from microscopic clay particles to large boulders The most abundant particles - sand, silt, and clay - are the focus of examination in studies of soil texture Texture is the term used to describe the line composite sizes of particles in a soil sample, typically several representative handfuls To measure soil texture, the sand, silt, and clay particles are sorted out by size and weight The weights of each size are then expressed as a percentage of the sample weight In the field, soil texture can be estimated by extracting a handful of sod and squeezing the damp soil into three basic shapes; (1) cast, a lump formed by squeezing a sample in a clenched fist; (2) thread, a pencil shape formed by rolling soil between the palms; and (3) ribbon, a flatfish shape formed by squeezing a small sample between the thumb and index finger The behavioral characteristics of the soil when molded into each of these shapes, if they can be formed at all, provides the basis for a general textural classification The behavior of the soil in the hand test is determined by the amount of clay in the sample Clay particles are highly cohesive, and when dampened, behave as a plastic Therefore the higher the clay content in a sample, the more refined and durable the shapes into which it can be molded Another method of determining soil texture involves the use of devices called sediment sieves, screens built with a specified mesh size When the soil is filtered through a group of sieves, each with a different mesh size, the particles become grouped in corresponding size categories Each category can be weighed to make a textural determination Although sieves work well for silt, sand, and larger particles, they are not appropriate for clay particles Clay is far too small to sieve accurately; therefore, in soils with a high proportion of clay, the fine particles are measured on the basis of their settling velocity when suspended in water Since clays settle so slowly, they are easily segregated from sand and silt The water can be drawn off and evaporated, leaving a residue of clay, which can be weighed Question 38.The author mentions "several representative handfuls" in the passage in order to show _ A: the range of soil samples B: the requirements for an adequate soil sam C: the process by which soil is weighed D: how small soil particles are Question 39.It can be inferred that the names of the three basic shapes mentioned in paragraph reflect _ A: the way the soil is extracted B: the need to check more than one handful C: the difficulty of forming different shapes D: the results of squeezing the soil Question 40.The word "dampened" in the passage is closest in meaning to _ A: damaged B: stretched C: moistened D: examined Question 41.It can be inferred from the passage that a soil sample with little or no clay in it _ A: does not have a durable shape B: is not very heavy C: does not have a classifiable texture D: may not hold its shape when molded Question 42.The word "they" in the passage refers to _ A: larger particles B: sieves C: categories D: clay particles Question 43 It can be inferred from the passage that the sediment sieve has an advantage over the hand test in determining soil texture because _ A: the sieve allows for a more exact measure B: less training is required to use the sieve C: using the sieve takes less time D: the sieve can measure clay Question 44 During the procedure described in paragraph 3, when clay particles are placed into water they _ A: stick to the sides of the water container B: dissolve quickly C: take some time to sink to the bottom D: separate into different sizes Question 45 The word "fine" in the passage is closest in meaning to _ A: many B: excellent C: tiny D: various
