ARE TRADITIONAL WAYS OF LEARNING THE BEST?
Read about some alternative schools of thought…
One school in Hampshire, UK, offers 24-hour teaching. The children can decide when or if they come to
school. The school is open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., for 364 days a year and provides online teaching
throughout the night. The idea is that pupils don't have to come to school and they can decide when they
want to study. Cheryl Heron, the head teacher, said “Some students learn better at night. Some students
learn better in the morning.” Cheryl believes that if children are bored, they will not come to school. “Why
must teaching only be conducted in a classroom? You can teach a child without him ever coming to school.”
Steiner schools encourage creativity and free thinking so children can study art, music and gardening as
well as science and history. They don’t have to learn to read and write at an early age. At some Steiner
schools the teachers can’t use textbooks. They talk to the children, who learn by listening. Every morning
the children have to go to special music and movement classes called “eurhythmy”, which help them learn
to concentrate. Very young children learn foreign languages through music and song. Another difference
from traditional schools is that at Steiner schools you don't have to do any tests or exams.
A child learning music with the Suzuki method has to start as young as possible. Even two-year-old
children can learn to play difficult pieces of classical music, often on the violin. They do this by watching
and listening. They learn by copying, just like they learn their mother tongue. The child has to join in, but
doesn't have to get it right. “They soon learn that they mustn't stop every time they make a mistake. They
just carry on,” said one Suzuki trainer. The children have to practise for hours every day and they give
performances once a week, so they learn quickly. “The parents must be involved too,” said the trainer, “or it just doesn't work.”
1. Which of the following is NOT true about 24-hour teaching?
A. Students can come to school from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. B. Students can study online at night.

2.Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Different relationships affect teenagers in various ways. Friends impact teenagers almost the same
amount as their parents. Teenagers go to their friends for help or to ask questions that they could not ask
their parents about. Most of their friends give them good advice. In most cases, they tell their friends how
to dress and act when being around certain people. Love relationships just make it even harder for a
teenager to get a good education. Some start to fail in school because they are hanging out with their
boyfriend or girlfriend instead of doing their work.
Parents have a big influence on teenagers because their children look up to them and the majority of
them grow up to act and do things just like their parents did with them. Children who have experienced a
family break-up may have lower achievements than children brought up in an intact family. As previously
stated, teenagers are affected by many relationships which involve their friends, family, and their love
relationships. The relationships affect them so much that most teenagers change their ideas about how they
should live their lives in a different way and to change their future goals. They should be influenced to help themselves or to help others.

It has long been seen as a less romantic way of meeting Mr. Right. But finding love over the internet is a
good way of meeting a marriage partner, research has showed. It found that one in five of those who have
used dating sites to find their perfect partner have gone on to marry someone they met over the web.The
study also revealed that more than half of the 1,504 people questioned had been on a date with someone
they met in cyberspace. Sixty-two per cent agreed that it was easier to meet someone on a dating site than
in other ways, such as in a pub or club, or through friends. At the same time, the under-35s were more
likely to know someone who had been on a date or had a long-term relationship with someone they met through online dating.

two million Britons are signed up to singles sites.

three components. The researchers also found that men were more likely to find true love on the internet
than women.Dr. Jeff Gavin, who led the team, said: 'To date, there has been no systematic study of love in
the context-of relationships formed via online dating sites. 'But with the popularity of online dating, it is
imperative we understand the factors that influence satisfaction in relationships formed in this way.'

The skills needed to succeed in college are very different from those required in high school.
In addition to study skills that may be new to students, there will also be everyday living skills that students
may not have had to use before. Students should:
– know how to handle everyday living skills such as doing laundry, paying bills, balancing a checkbook,
cooking, getting the oil changed in the car, etc.
– be familiar and compliant with medical needs concerning medication and health problems. If ongoing
medical and/or psychological treatment is needed, arrangements should be made in advance to continue
that care while the student is away at college.
– understand that the environmental, academic, and social structure provided by parents and teachers will
not be in place in college. With this lack of structure comes an increased need for responsibility in
decision-making and goal-setting.
– know how to interact appropriately with instructors, college staff, roommates, and peers. Appropriate
social interaction and communication are essential at the college level of education.
– be comfortable asking for help when needed. The transition from high school to college can be
overwhelming socially and academically. Students should know when they need help and should be able
to reach out and ask for that help.
