Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.The Bush Administration strongly supports c

25、 are all privately financedB One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldnt or couldnt sleep, I tried everything I could think of : a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that wa

26、tching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill of the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube.

27、elebrate John Bellushis forty-fifth birthday. My wife and I heard none of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself. I found in my babys behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he

28、 merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students dont read and they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached

32、hink aboutCquarrel aboutDcare aboutC It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a

33、cage, but to have one in the drivers seat is another matter.Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude drivingOn the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way tow

34、ards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fightingA friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enoughMany drivers nowadays do

35、nt even seem able to recognize politeness when they see itHowever, misplaced politeness can also be dangerousTypical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in timeThe same goes for encouraging old lad
