One一Room Schools
One-room sohools are part of the heritage of the United States,and the mention of them makeo PeoPle
feel a longing for"the way things were".One-room schools are an endangered species,however.For more
than a hundred years,one-room schools have been systematically shut down and their students sent away to
centralized schools.As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one-room schools in the United States.By 1970
there werel,800.Today,of the nearly 800 remaining one-room schools,more than 350 are in Nebraska.The
rest are spread through a few other states that have on their road maps wide-open spaces between towns.
Now that there are hardly any left,educators are beginning to think that maybe there 15 something yet to
be leamed from one-room schools,something that served the pioneers that might serve as well today.Progres-
sive educators have come uP with progressive-sounding names like"peer-group teaching"and"multi-age
grouping" for educational procedures that occur naturally in one-room schools.In a one-room school the chil-
dren teach each other because the teacher 15 busy part of the time teaching someone else.A fourth grader can
work at a fifth-grade level in math and a third-grade level in English without the bad name associated with
being left back or the pressures of being skiPped ahead.A youngster with a learning disability can find his or
her own level without being separated from the other pupils.A few hours in a small school that has only one
classroom and it becomes clear why so many parents feel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is
that their children have to go to a one-room school.

第一篇The United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation.However,middle class is not a real designation,nor does it carry privileges.It is more of a perception,which probably was as true as it ever could be right after World War Ⅱ.The economy was growing,more and more people owned their own homes,workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them,and nearly everyone who wanted a higher education could have one.Successfi1l people enjoyed upward social mobility.They may have started out poor,but they could become rich.Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility.In other words,they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places.The middle class collectively holds several values and principles.One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that one can determine one's own economic fate.In addition,middle class morality embraces principles of individual responsibility,importance of family,obligations to others,and believing in something outside oneself.But in the 1990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success.A U. S. Newslong commutes became routine;the need for child care put strains on the family;and public schools were not as good as they once were.Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using credit to stay afloat. The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing.In the years after World War Ⅱ,the middle class could be defined as__________.A:overburdened and in debtB:hard working and suspicious C:prosperous and optimisticD:young and foolish

第一篇From Ponzi to MadoffThe year was 1920.The country was the United States of America. The man's name was Charles Ponzi. Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead,they should give it to him to save for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example,a savings account might pay you$5 a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $ 100 you gave him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.How could Ponzi make so much money for people?This is what he did with the money people gave him: He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However,he also kept a lot of the money for himself. Soon he had $ 250 million.This was a kind of theft,and it was against the law. The people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong. Ponzi paid them every month,just like a bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day,he didn'thave enough money to pay all the people.They discovered his crime,and he went to prison for fraud.Ninety years later,people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff. People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money,he paid them a lot more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals,schools,and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40 years,people gave him$170 billion.However,no one investigated what he did with the money.The people who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.One day,Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay.
