14、ives them any academic advantage. My threeyearold son and I went shopping for his school uniform. As he stood in the changing room, swamped by even the smallest trousers, several people commented that he looked too young to start school. I couldnt agree more. Scarcely will he have blown out the cand
15、les on his fourth birthday cake when Ill be waving him off at the school gates. The poor little man still puts his pants on back to front and thinks baby pigs come out of eggs. How is he going to cope with literacy and numeracy hours, let alone the horrors of school toilets?Yes, I am an overanxious
16、mother but I surely cant be the only person who feels that British children start school far too young. A research suggests that channelling children into formal learning structures at such a young age breeds a sense of failure and disaffection that will dog them throughout their school career. The
17、law states that the statutory school starting age for children in the UK is the term after a childs fifth birthday, but it is common practice in England and Wales to admit children to reception class at the beginning of the year in which they become 5, which means that most children start school at
18、the age of 4. The latest government figures indicate that around 80 percent of children enter school before their fifth birthday. By comparison, children in France, Portugal, Belgium start school at 6, while the school starting age in many Scandinavian countries is 7. This is the starting age in Fin

22、farmer, he moved to Chicago, where he saw the reconstruction of the city after the disastrous fire of 1871.In those days, it was nicknamed “the Garden City”， almost certainly the source of Howards name for his later building plan of towns.Returning to London, Howard developed his design in the 1880s
23、 and 1890s, drawing_on ideas that were popular at the time, but creating a unique combination of designs.The nineteenthcentury poor city was in many ways a terrible place, dirty and crowded; but it offered economic and social opportunities.At the same time, the British countryside was in fact equall
24、y unattractive：though it promised fresh air and nature, it suffered from agricultural depression (萧条) and it offered neither enough work and wages, nor much social life.Howards idea was to combine the best of town and country in a new kind of settlement, the garden city.Howards idea was that a group
25、 of people should set up a company, borrowing money to establish a garden city in the depressed countryside, far enough from existing cities to make sure that the land was bought at the bottom price.Garden cities would provide a central public open space, radial avenues and connecting industries.The
26、y would be surrounded by a much larger area of green belt, also owned by the company, containing not merely farms but also some industrial institutions.As more and more people moved in, the garden city would reach its planned limitHoward suggested 32, 000 people; then, another would be started a sho
27、rt distance away.Thus, over time, there would develop a vast planned house collection, extending almost without limit; within it, each garden city would offer a wide range of jobs and services, but each would also be connected to the others by a rapid transportation system, thus giving all the econo
28、mic and social opportunities of a big city.35How did Howard get the name for his building plan of garden cities?AThrough his observation of the country life.BThrough the combination of different ideas.CBy taking other peoples advice.DBy using the nickname of the reconstructed Chicago.36The underline
29、d phrase “drawing on” in Paragraph 1 probably means _.Amaking use ofBmaking comments onCgiving an explanation ofDgiving a description of37According to Howard, garden cities should be built _.Aas far as possible from existing citiesBin the countryside where the land was cheapCin the countryside where
30、 agriculture was developedDnear cities where employment opportunities already existed38What can we learn about garden cities from the last paragraph?A. Their number would continue to rise.BEach one would continue to become larger.CPeople would live and work in the same place.DEach one would contain a certain type of business.39What could be the best title for the passage?ACity and CountrysideBThe Invention of the Garden CityCA New City in ChicagoDA Famous Garden City in England
