For many years, school children in the US have been taken on "field trips” to cultural institutions such as museums of art. Educators arrange them in the belief that schools exist not only to teach economically useful skills, but also to produce civilized young people who appreciate the art and culture. While there are parents who will take their children to cultural places in their free time, there are plenty of other children who will never have this kind of opportunity unless schools offer it. So you could say that taking school students on field trips is a means of giving everyone equal access to their cultural heritage.
However, the attitude towards field trips in recent years is changing, with the number of tours organized for school groups falling significantly in museums all around the country. The most obvious reason is the issue of finance. Because there are increasing demands on their funds, after all, computers and sports facilities aren't cheap, schools are forced to make a difficult choice about how to spend the limited money they have. Faced with this dilemma, field trips are an obvious thing to cut since they are seen by many as too expensive.
Additionally, the nature of these field days is also changing. Schools increasingly use trips to amusement parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. This shift could have a basis in generational differences between teachers9 reasons for organizing days out of school. A recent survey conducted among 500 Arkansas teachers showed that older teachers were significantly more likely to take the primary purpose of a field trip as a learning experience than younger teachers, who view it as fun.
Some evidence shows the trend of fewer trips may have a negative effect on children's development. A research led by Jay Greene at Arkansas University found that students who received a tour of an art museum greatly improved their knowledge of and the ability to think critically about art. They also display stronger historical interest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the future. The researchers warm that if schools cut field trips or switch to less educational destinations, valuable opportunities to broaden and enrich children's learning experiences are lost.
What is the original purpose of field trips to cultural institutions?
To teach students useful skills in economics.
To encourage parents to take their children there.
C To educate students to preserve cultural heritage.
D. To make art culture accessible to every student.
Which factor most probably leads to the trend of fewer field trips? A The decrease in school funds.
B. The lack of school funds.
C Students' demand for fiin.
D. Teachers9 generational differences.
What does the underlined phrase “This shift" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
The switch from old generations to young generations.
The switch from sporting events to cultural experiences.
The change from an opportunity for learning to a treat for entertainment.
The change from educational destinations to unique attractions.
What can be inferred about field rips from the research by Jay Greene?
Students are rewarded with more cultural awareness.
Amusement parks enrich children's learning experiences.
Cutting field trips is critical to the future of the museum.
Field trips ensure better future academic performance.

Tf a job is worth doing, it's worth doing poorly first. These are the words of Joel Salatin of Poly face Farm. Joel's opinion is that we've all grown up with the expression "if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right." Personally, I grew up hearing it as "if it's worth doing, it's worth doing well." Yet, as Joel says, nobody does it right the first time. Joel explained that it's this kind of thinking that prevents us from innovating（仓U新）in our own lives. We're frightened to death to try new things, because we think we have to get it right the first time.
This is an innovative farmer's wisdom. It resonates（和 类彳以）well with what I've learned from master
teachers as well as with research on perfectionism. Let me speak briefly of both of these.
T have been fortunate to have a number of mentors（导!）甲）in my development as a teacher. One of my favorites is a retired biology teacher from the University of British Columbia, Lee Gass. Lee explained to me that it's not
until we know that we don't know, it's not until we admit our ignorance, even celebrate our ignorance, that we can learn anything at all!
When we learn to see that it is through admitting our ignorance and trying even though it won't be perfect or even "right“ the first time that we can learn anything, we really start living.
Some of the research stresses the harm of not taking this attitude in our pursuit（追求）.Perfectionism is often said to be the enemy of the good. It's also the enemy of even trying.
I for one take this farmer's advice to heart. I do try my best to do things as well as I possibly can but I recognize that it's the creative process where we learn, if we stay at it long enough. If a job is worth doing, it's worth doing poorly first.
What is Joel's opinion about a job that is worth doing?
B. It is worth doing well.
D. It is worth completing.
B. Both of them do a poor job.
D. Both of them value ignorance.
A. It is worth trying.
C. It is worth doing right.
What do Joel and Lee have in common?
A. Both of them are ignorant.
C. Both of them love their jobs.
What is the finding of some of the research according to the text?
It's impossible to be perfect.
It's harmful to change your goal.
Ifs dangerous to seek perfection.
D・ It's easy to become the enemy of the good.
What does the author stress in the last paragraph?
A. The value of creation. B. The benefit of learning.
C. The meaning of freedom. D. The importance of a process.

Should you listen to music when you work? Some will say they love it, claiming that it improves their performance; others will say they cannot work effectively with music playing in the background. 12 It just depends on what sort of work you're doing.
In a recent study, we brought participants into our lab with a variety of tasks. They included an easy task —
searching through word lists and crossing out words containing the letter "a" and a more difficult task - memorizing word pairs and recalling the partner to each word. Some participants completed all of the tasks in silence, whereas others completed the tasks with instrumental music that was either loud or soft, and either simple or complex, the latter meaning music with more instrumental tracks. 13
We found that participants who listened to simple music or no music performed about the same on the easy task.
14 Contrarily, participants performed worse on the more difficult task when they listened to any music, regardless of complexity or volume, compared to those who didn't listen to any music.
Not surprisingly, we typically need to use fewer of our mental resources when we perform easy tasks, whereas demanding tasks require more brainpower. However, because we might be less engaged during easier tasks, there's a greater risk of drifting off to sleep. Music might give us the extra boost we need to get refreshed.
Listening to music can become overkill （过犹不及）.So we have to strike a balance between the type of music and the type of task.
What should we make of these findings?
Several key findings emerged from our study.
However, difficult tasks already demand a lot of our mental resources.
Our research has found that the effects of work may depend on our personalities.
We want to develop a more comprehensive framework that could be applied broader.
However, participants who listened to complex music performed best on the easy task.
Interestingly enough, our research has found that both of these perspectives can be true.
