25、offered the chance to attend lessons on Saturday to help catch up with their middle-class peers (同龄人), the shadow schools secretary, Michael Gove, said today.The Conservatives would give English state schools the freedom to choose to have longer teaching hours and extra classes at the weekend; he to
26、ld the Association of Teachers and Lecturers annual conference.Gove said the move would help to close the achievement gap with richer children whose parents could afford extras such as tutoring and music lessons.He told delegates (代表)in Manchester, “For children who come from homes where parents don
27、t have the resources to provide additional stretch and cultural experiences, there are benefits in having those children in the learning environment, in school, for longer.”“Parents would love to have schools starting earlier in some circumstances, and certainly going on later in the afternoon, give
28、n the reality of their working lives,” he said. He held up the example of Kipp (Knowledge Is Power Program) schools in the US, which are often based in the poorest communities and open from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, plus Saturdays. But it would be up to schools to decide to offer longer hours
29、, Gove added.Parents said Saturday classes could become a “badge of dishonor” if pupils were forced to go while teachers raised concerns about their workload.Margaret Morrissey, of Parents Outloud, said, “I think the suggestion the government made about one-to-one teaching for these kids would be a
30、more preferable way of improving these childrens performance. Im just not sure whether taking away a child at weekends is actually going to make them cleverer in the week.”The ATLs general secretary, Mary Bousted, said, “If we want Saturday schools, then we need more teachers doing the extra hours,
31、not the same teachers working longer.”56. The program is intended for children _. A. who are from middle-class families B. whose parents cant afford extras C. who perform poorly at school D. whose weekends are mostly free57. “Additional stretch” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to _.

35、Magazines “Top 100 DJs poll” for the second successive year.

36、vels around the world over 16 times each year to sold out performances internationally. Born in Eisenhuettenstadt, East Germany, Paul van Dyk grew up in East Berlin.

38、owed by the release of his hit single “For An Angel,” which began to earn him praise across the globe. By the time Paul van Dyk released Out There & Back in 2000, it became clear that the Berlin-based musician had far more to offer than his signature club sets that had already defined him as one of
39、the most influential DJs and producers of all time.His first mix CD Politics of Dancing was released in 2001, followed by Global in 2003a DVD which illustrates his own experiences traveling the world. 60.

42、echnology changed the face of industry, farms have experienced an “agricultural revolution”. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power. One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their far
43、ms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock(家畜) to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs ju
44、st for farmers. Programs are being written for pig producers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers.

45、uired to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer p
46、ower.Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real “mechanized hired hand” that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make shocking changes in farming before the e
47、nd of the century. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear（修剪） sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in
48、order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically
49、check to make sure that the milk is pure. The complete change of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.64.
