Day 11
不知道大家昨天的阅读做对没有，做对的同学再接再厉，没做对的同学也不要气馁。在所有的题型中，阅读是最综合考察英语水平和能力的，也就是说，阅读提高了，其他题型也会相应提高。阅读有三个要素，词汇，长难句，解题思路，我会在公众号中针对这三个要素，不断给大家练习，坚持看，把英语交给我，放心！
Which of the following is characteristic of boys according to Abigail James' report?
A. They enjoy being in charge
B. They conform to stereotypes
C. They have sharper vision
D. They are violent and sexist
原文：
Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and wrirting with "boy-focused" approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given "hands-on" lessons where they are allowed to walk aorund. "Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine and prefer the modern genre in which violence and sexism are major themes," James wrote.
