Future Classrooms
With the development of technology, education is changing. The classroom of the future will surely not be the same as the classroom of today. So what will the future classroom be like? Let’s try to find it out.
To start with, facing the blackboard will be a thing of the past. Students will take classes by looking at their touch-screen (触摸屏的) desks. And doing homework, taking down notes, and taking tests will be just a click away (点击鼠标即可). The walls of the classroom will also be filled with real-time screens for students and teachers to show any information they want.
In the coming years, another technology called metaverse (元宇宙) will make learning more exciting. Metaverse is a 3D virtual (虚拟的) world where people can meet, play, and work with others through digital avatars (数字化身). In the metaverse, people can do things like going to the mall, going to a concert or buying virtual clothing. The only difference is that they’ll be doing all these in a virtual environment. Teachers and students can get into a virtual classroom, while in real life, they may be sitting on the sofa at home. The experience will be like being in an actual (真实的) classroom. Students can also see the real geography of the planet, take tours through international universities or research labs, and much more.
Besides, the classroom of the future holds several learning styles for students. They will be given the freedom to learn things in the way they want. This includes learning through video lectures (讲座). Everyone moves at their own pace (节奏), with teachers guiding them along the way. This practice will help students learn faster and have better results.
5. What is the metaverse?
A A virtual world. B. A new kind of class. C. A robot teacher.
6. What can’t people do in the metaverse according to the passage?
A. Watch a famous singer’s concert.
B. Enjoy the smell of beautiful flowers.
C. Tour around the world on their sofa.
7. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. How the metaverse will change our life.
B. How students will learn at their own pace.
C. How the classroom will change in the future.
8. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? (P=Paragraph)
A. B. C.
C

The witch and the monkeys
Now, the Witch of the West had a magic eye, and it could see everything. She saw the friends on the road, and she was angry. She put on her tall black hat and shouted, ‘Magic Monkeys—come!’
In a second, forty monkeys arrived at her tall house. ‘What do you want?’ they asked.
‘There are three people, a dog, and a lion on my road,’ she said. ‘Kill the people and the dog. But bring the lion here to my house. He can work for me.’
‘At once,’ said the Monkeys. And away they went.
They broke the Tin Man’s arms and legs. They took all the straw out of the Scarecrow and threw his clothes up into a tall tree. Then they took the Lion and carried him to a dark cellar under the Witch’s house.
But they could not hurt Dorothy and Toto, because of the good Witch’s kiss. So the Monkeys picked them up very carefully and carried them to the Witch’s house. The Witch saw the kiss on Dorothy’s face and was afraid. But she did not tell Dorothy that.
Now Dorothy did not know this, but the red shoes were magic. The Witch wanted those shoes very much, but Dorothy never took them off. She took them off when she washed, of course, but the Witch never went near water. She was very, very afraid of water.
Then, one morning, Dorothy’s left shoe fell off.
The Witch picked up the shoe at once. ‘This is my shoe now!’ she shouted. ‘No, it isn’t!’ shouted Dorothy angrily. ‘Give it back to me at once!’
‘No!’ said the Witch. And then she tried to take Dorothy’s right shoe too.
Dorothy loved her red shoes, and she was very angry. There was a bucket (桶) of water near the door...
