One-third of them could not name six New England states. Students in Baltimore were questioned. Half could not shade in the United States on a map. Here is what another survey showed. Students did not know history. Most did not know the dates of the American Civil War. Many did not know World War II leaders. Someone asked this question. 2 Their answer: Social studies was not important. They said it was the least important of their studies. What is social studies? It is the study of individuals.

These are part of social studies. 3 Let's say you study the way people live together in groups. This is an area of social studies. So is learning about very early people. So is studying government. Is social studies important? Early Americans thought so. Students then learned history and civics (公民学). This was to make them good citizens. A report from 1916 set a new goal. It said, "The social studies should cultivate a sense of membership in the world munity." The world munity is very large. 4 We have radio and TV. We have phones. We have puters. Social studies helps us understand the world's people. It helps us learn about groups and societies. 5 We all need to be good world citizens. (304) A. It covers many other areas as well. B. But today it is easy to share ideas in it. C. What did students think of social studies? D. It showed that they did not know geography. E. Why did students consider the social studies less important?

F Some people believe that international sports create goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: that international petitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments. 1 Not only was there the tragic incident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by lesser incidents caused mainly by minor national petitions. One country received its second-place medals with visible indignation (愤慨) after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the loser's objection to the final decisions. 2 Their manager was very angry and he said, "This wasn't hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished." The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension (停赛) of the team for at least three years. 3 The game had ended in disturbance. It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play. A Russian player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the USA had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. 4 The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals. 5 The suggestion that athletes should pete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for.

The American basketball team announced that they would not give up first place of Russia, after a disputable end to their petition. 答案: 1. F 2. D. 3. G 4. C 5. B Ali is from a Middle Eastern country. He now stays in the USA. He smokes a lot of cigarettes every day. He has smoked for nine years. Ali says, " I tried to quit (放弃) smoking in my hometown, but it was impossible. My parents smoke. My brothers smoke. All my friends smoke. At parties and at meetings, almost all the men smoke. Here in the United States, not as many people smoke. 1 " Many smokers are like Ali: they want to stop smoking. 2 They know it can cause cancer and heart disease.
