Passage B

Questions 41 to 44 are based on the following passage. One of the most influential methods in American education currently is the ITIP method (Instructional Theory into Practice). There’re seven steps. 1.Anticipatory(前期)Set. The teacher raises the interest of the class by starting with an idea that gets their attention. It might be the distance to the moon or an object whose function or use the students eagerly learn. The idea is to have students become focused on the importance of the lesson.

2.Objective and Purpose. The students are told the reason for the lesson. It might be related to what was learned yesterday. The students are allowed to know why they’re learning certain information so their natural curiosity can be satisfied.

A child finds it difficult to go with the changing world and he ends up becoming an unhappy person. Enjoying life is a great art which very few people know on this earth.

To enjoy life, a person is required to have a deep insight into life, free from all the worldly things. We all
