22、ools.Public schools are completely founded by governments through tax (税收) income.Boys and girls attend the same school and share the same courses and classes.Schooling in Canada is provided in English and in French.The rest of Canadian children attend private schools,which are supported mainly by f
23、ees (费) paid directly by parents.Some private schools enroll (招收) only boys or girls.By law,children must attend school from age 5 to 16.Children are usually in school between 830 or 900 am.,and 330 or 400 pm.,Monday through Friday,from September to the middle of June.There are several different lev
24、els in the Canadian education system.The first is called Elementary Schools.In most provinces Elementary Schools include Kindergarten through Grade 7 or 8.From Grade 8 or 9 through 12 or 13,children go to Secondary School or High School.High School students must take certain courses for several year

31、ar,and that every child of school age has a legal right to continue to receive education while in hospital.We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1,000 children in hospital.Little wonder the latest survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a gr
32、eat deal across the country.It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher.A further quarter have only a parttime teacher.The special childrens hospitals in major cities do best;general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off.From this survey,one
33、 can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacherand that contact may be as little as two hours a day.Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all.They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school.If there was

68、月中旬学生在校,所以6月中旬至8月应该是假期。42C通篇来看,文章介绍了加拿大的教育情况。43B第一段中,作者告诉我们“没有人知道有多少孩子在医院里能接受到教育,更少有人知道教育的内容和教学质量”,这与B项not enough is known about hospital teaching的意思一致。44D根据第二段第二、三句“It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher.A further quarter have only a parttime teacher.”可知
69、,一半的医院没有老师,四分之一的医院有兼职老师,那么剩余的四分之一的医院就有全职老师了。45B由“Children tend to rely on concerned school friends to keep in touch with school work”可知,他们求助的是同学。46C作者一开头就用surprisingly一词,清楚表达了对医院教育现状的态度。然后通过具体的调查结果,表明了对医院里儿童教学现状的不满。47B主旨大意题。从文中第一段中Blind Chinese pianist Sun Yan,23,will give a concert at the Peoples L
