Schools in the U.S. generally do not have a specific teaching plan for teachers to follow, and they certainly don’t have a set of textbooks that are taught by all school districts throughout the country. That’s why textbooks vary greatly from school to school, and from teacher to teacher even though they are all teaching the same subject in the same grade. Some schools provide books to use, but teachers do not strictly follow them. They only use them as a reference, and enjoy pointing out mistakes and wrong information given in the books. They often share their own points of view with their students. Teaching like this has many advantages. Teachers can bring out their expertise, fully elaborating their most familiar areas. Students are more interested in what they are studying. Also this flexible teaching style. benefits students in the development of critical thinking skills and the ability to apply them. On the other hand teaching like this also has many drawbacks. It causes uneven study levels. It is even more so among different schools and districts. Students in the same grade do not usually have a thorough understanding of a subject taught in the same school year. The teacher for the following year would have to spend a lot of time finding out what the students already know or do not know in the subject before starting his/her own teaching plan. Some parts may be repeated, resulting in waste of time; and other parts may not be covered at all.Exams in American schools are much less rigid than those in China.

单选题Passage1Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools.But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake. Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven inefective. The staying power of the look-sayor whole-wordmethod of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.The whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters, thinking over decoding, developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words. It fits in with the self-directed, learning how to learn activities recommended by advocates of open classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading. Before 1963, no major publisher put out anything but these Run-Spot-Run readers.However, in 1955, Rudolf Flesch touched off what has been called the great debatein beginning reading. In his best-seller Why Johnny Can't Read, Flesch indicted the nation's public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method. He said-and more scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dyksta later confirmed-that another approach to beginning reading, founded on phonics, is far superior.Systematic phonics first teaches children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words. Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words, it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned. Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.One major difference between the look-saymethod of learning reading and the phonics method is________Alook-say is simplerBphonics takes longer to learnClook-say is easier to teachDphonics gives readers access to far more words
