Question

【題目】In some countries，open campus (校園) is widely accepted. For example, French students have a two-hour lunch break from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. During their lunch break, they can eat at home or at a restaurant. But students in the Philippines have a tougher schedule. They have only two 15-minute breaks and an hour for lunch.

What Schedule would be best for American schools?

Having breaks between classes is great, but having breaks off campus is even better. There are several advantages to open campus, including simple conveniences such as being able to eat different meals during lunchtime, rather than having the cafeteria (自助食堂) dishes, as well as having the chance to take a break at home.

However, there are more reasons I disagree with allowing high school students the right to have an open campus. Sure, it’s great being able to escape school during the day for a while, but soon enough that may easily become the rest of the day.

If open campus is allowed, it is very possible that such freedom will make it all too easy for students to skip their afternoon classes. Of course, there will be students responsible enough to come back to school.

But unexpected problems such as heavy traffic, city bus delays (延遲) or cars breaking down may prevent them from returning to school. It benefits the students to stay in school during lunch hours to avoid transportation issues.

Depending on how close the school is to restaurants and students’ homes, open campus could be a great idea. Unfortunately, though, most public schools in America are not located close enough to restaurants or students’ homes, thus causing the negative results to outweigh (超過) the positives in the end.

【4】C

【解析】

試題分析：本文屬于議論文，文章介紹了法國和菲律賓都給學生提供了較多的午休時間，討論了在美國開放校園的好處及缺點。

【1】C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段后兩句But students in the Philippines have a tougher schedule. They have only two 15-minute breaks and an hour for lunch.可知菲律賓的學生中午休息的時間更短，只有1小時15分鐘。而法國學生有兩個小時，說明菲律賓的學生的自由時間更少。故C項正確。

【2】B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句Sure, it’s great being able to escape school during the day for a while, but soon enough that may easily become the rest of the day.和第五段第一句If open campus is allowed, it is very possible that such freedom will make it all too easy for students to skip their afternoon classes.可知一旦開放校園以后，很多學生下午可能就會逃課，不在來學校上課了。故B正確。

【3】D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一句Unfortunately, though, most public schools in America are not located close enough to restaurants or students’ homes, thus causing the negative results to outweigh (超過) the positives in the end.可知很多美國學生的家里學校都比較遠。故D項正確。

【4】C 主旨大意題。本文屬于議論文，在文章第一段中提出法國學生午休時間為2小時，菲律賓學生午休75分鐘。接著作者提出美國是否要開放校園，分析了開放校園的優(yōu)勢以及缺點。故C項正確。
