？？？？Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Apopularly-held view has it that “opportunity to learn” is the key to educational success -i.e.the more time children spend on a subject, the better they do at it. According to the recent study there seems little correlation between time spent on a subject and performance of pupils in tests. Young Austrians spend exceptionally long hours on math and science lessons; for them it pays off in higher test scores. But so do New Zealand&39;s teenagers and they do not do any better than, say Norwegians, who spend an unusually short time on lessons in both subjects. Next and of particular interest to cash-strapped governments there appears to be little evidence to support the argument, often heard from teachers&39; unions, that the main cause of educational under achievement is under funding. Low-spending countries such as South Korea and the Czech Republic are at the top. High-spenders such as America and Denmark do much worse. Obviously there are dozens of reasons other than spending why one country does well, another badly, but the success of the low–spending Czechs and Koreans does show that spending more on schools is not aprerequisite（前提） for improving standards.
Another article of faith among the teaching profession that children are bound to do better in small classes is also being undermined by educational research. The study found that France, America and Britain, where children are usually taught in classes of twenty-odd, do significant1y worse than East Asian countries where almost twice as many pupils are crammed into each class. Again, there may be social reason why some countries can cope better with large classes than others. All the same, the comparis on refutes the argument that larger is necessarily worse, Further, the study even cast some doubt over the cultural explanation for the greater success o fEast Asia: that there is some hard-to-define Asian culture, connected with parental authority and a strong social value on education, which makes children more eager to learn and easier to teach. Those who make this argument say it would of course be impossible to replicate such oriental magic in the West.
Yet the results of the study suggest that this is, to put it mildly, exaggerated. If “culture” makes English children so poor at math, then why have they done so well at science (not far behind the Japanese and South Koreans)？Any why do English pupils do well at science and badly at math, while in France it is the other way around ？A less mystical, more mundane explanation suggests it self English school: teach science well and math badly; French schools teach math better than science; East Asia schools teach both subjects well.
The passage is mainly concerned with ___.？？
？？A.establishing a relationship between culture and education
B.exposing educational myths
C.introduction educational philosophies

A.time spent on a subject correlates with academic success

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
??The poverty line is the minimum income that people need for an acceptable standard of living. People with incomes below the poverty line are considered poor. Economists study the causes of poverty in order to find solutions to the problem.
As the general standard of living in the country rises, the poverty line does, too. Therefore, even with today&39;s relatively high standard of living, about tenpercent of the people in the United States are below the poverty line. However, if these people had stable jobs, they could have an acceptable standard of living. Economist ssuggest several reasons why poor people do not have jobs.
For one thing, more than half of the poor people in the United States are not qualified to work. Over 40 percent of the poor people are children. By law, children less than 16 years old cannot work in many industries. A large number of poor people are old. Many companies do not hire people over 65 years old, the normal retirement age.
Some poor adults do not look for jobs for avariety of personal reasons: they are sick, they do not have any motivation, they have family problems, or they do not believe that they can find a job.
Other poor people look for a job but cannot find one. Many poor adults never went to high school. Therefore, when they look for jobs, they have few skills that they can offer.
At the present time, the government thinks it can reduce poverty in the country in the following ways. First, if the national economy grows, businesses and industries will hire more workers. Some of the poor who are qualified to look for jobs may fund employment. Then they will no longer be below the poverty line.
Second, if society invests in the poor, the poor will become more productive. If the government spends money on social programs, education, and training for poor people, the poor will have the skills to offer, and then it is more likely that they can find jobs.??
Finally, if the government distributes society&39;s income differently, it will raise some poor people above the poverty line. The government collects taxes from the non-poor and gives money to the poor. These payments to the poor are called welfare. In 1975 over 18 million people in the United States received welfare.
Some economists are looking for better solution to the poverty problem. However, at the present time, many people depend on welfare for a minimally acceptable standard of living.
The author&39;s main purpose to write this articleis___.
??
??A.to define what the poverty line is
B.to explain why some people live below the poverty line
C.to find solutions to the problem of poverty
D.to show sympathy for those poor people
More than 40 percent of the poor people are children.This is mainly because ___.A.they do not have enough motivation
B.they are so young that they are deprived of chances to work
C.they fail to get enough education
D.they are very poor in experience
Most of the American poor people are not qualified for employment because___.A.they do not have any motivation to work
B.they are not very self-confident
C.they are too young or too old to work
D.they have physical and family problems
Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Ten percent of the Americans live a poor life.
B.Poor people are those who live below the poverty line.
C.The poverty line rises as the general standard of living rises.
D.The poverty line tends to be at the same level.
We may conclude from the passage that___.A.better solutions to the poverty problem are not yet found
B.welfare will enable people to be rich
C.poor people are bound to go out of the poverty line of they have chances to do business
D.Employment is the best solution to the poverty problem
