Learning is natural. It begins the minute we are born. Our  36   teachers are our families. __37    home we learn to speak and to  38  and feed ourselves. We learn these and other skills by  39__ our parents.

Then we go to school. A teacher tells us  40   to learn. Many teachers teach us, and we pass many  41  .Then people say we are  42 .

Are we really educated? Let’s think about the real meaning of  43  . Knowing facts does not mean being able to solve problems. Solving problems  44   creativity, not just a good  45  . Some people who don’t know many facts are good at solving problems.

Henry Ford is a good  46  . He went to school at the age of 15. Later, when his company could not build cars  47  , he solved the problem. He thought of the assembly line (裝配線). Today the answer seems  48  . Yet think of the many university graduates who have   49  solved such a problem.

What does a good teacher do? Does he give students facts to 50  ? NO! A good teacher shows how to find answers. He shows us to the  51   of knowledge so we can learn to think for ourselves. When we are  52  , we know where to go.

True learning combines（聯(lián)系） intake with output. We take information  53   our brains. Then we use it. Think of a computer, it stores a lot of  54   but it can’t think. It only  55    commands. A person who only remembers facts hasn’t really learned. Learning takes place only when a person can use what he knows.

A few years ago, Paul Gerner began to gather a group of architects in Las Vegas to ask them what it would take to design a public school that used 50 percent less energy, cost much less to build and obviously improved student learning. “I think half of them fell off their chairs,” Gerner says.  

Gerner manages school facilities （設(shè)施） for Clark County, Nevada, a district roughly the size of Massachusetts. By 2018, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system. Gerner needs 73 new schools to house them. Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes （樣品）; they plan to construct their schools starting in 2009. The district will then assess how well the schools perform, and three winners will copy those designs in 50 to 70 new buildings.  

Green schools are appearing all over, but in Clark County, which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because design requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “One of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation （朝向）,” Mark McGinty, a director at SH Architecture, says. His firm recently completed a high school in Las Vegas. “You have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to cool.”  

Surprisingly, the man responsible for one of the most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “I don’t believe in the new green religion,” Gerner says. “Some of the building technologies that you get are impractical. I’m interested in those that work.” But he wouldn’t mind if some green features inspire students. He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “You never know what’s going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,” he says.  

 

63. How did the architects react to Gerner’s design requirements?  

A. They lost balance in excitement.                B. They showed strong disbelief.  

C. They expressed little interest.                     D. They burst into cheers.  

 

64. Which order of steps is followed in carrying out the project?  

A. Assessment ― Prototype ― Design ― Construction.  

B. Assessment ― Design ― Prototype ― Construction.  

C. Design ― Assessment ― Prototype ― Construction.  

D. Design ― Prototype ― Assessment ― Construction.  

 

65. What makes it difficult to build green schools in Clark County?  

A. The large size.                                          B. Limited facilities.  

C. The desert climate.                                    D. Poor natural resources.  

 

66. What does Gerner think of the ideas of green schools?  

A. They are questionable.                               B. They are out of date.  

C. They are advanced.                                   D. They are practical.
