In the l8th century Liverpool became an important city for international business across the Atlantic Ocean．Ships sailed from Liverpool to the United States and Africa．The place to learn more about Liverpool's importance is the Maritime Museum．
Liverpool was important because of its industry and trade in the 18th century．In the 20th century it became famous for music．The boys in the rock group，the Beatles，all came from Liverpool．The city is very proud of them．It named its airport John Lennon International Airport．after one of the Beatles．Tourists can take a bus tour to visit some of the places the Beatles mention in their songs，1ike Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields．They can also visit the Cavern Club﹣the group first played there in 1961．The Beatles Story is a museum and gallery．Here you can find out more about these world﹣famous musicians．
But there's more to see and do in Liverpoo1．At the Walker Art Gallery you can see the best art in the North of England．If you like modern art，the place to visit is the Tate Gallery．But above all，it's the friendly and welcoming people of Liverpool who make this a city you should visit when you come to Great Britain．

26．（10分）To most of us，school means classes，teachers，schedules，grades and tests．But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts，school is very different．
Firstly，there are no lessons．All the children，aged between 4and 19，do whatever they want．There are no teachers，only"staff members"．The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn，because children want to learn anyway．"You do not need to say to a three﹣year﹣old，‘Go explore your environment．'You can't stop them!"says Daniel Greenberg，a founder of the school．"But if you make children do what you want all day…they will lose all taste of learning．"At Sudbury Valley School，you will find children talking，reading，painting，cooking，working on computers，studying French，playing the piano，climbing trees，or just running around．Two boys spent three years just fishing!
The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules．Every week，there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote （投票）each﹣even the four﹣year﹣olds．They decide the school rules，how to spend the school money，and even which staff they want and do not want anymore．
When the school first opened in 1968，people said it would never work．But today，the school has 200students，and 80% of its students go on to college．Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today．One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist．
51．What's special about the school？　 　
A．There is nobody but students there．
B．All the students are of the same age．
C．There are no classes for the students．
D．There are no rules in the school．
52．What do the students do in the school？　 　
A．They learn everything there from the staff members．
B．They grow up there without learning anything．
C．They spend all the time with their parents．
D．They do whatever they are interested in．
53．The school seems to believe that children　 　．
A．learn best when they are doing what they want
B．are too young to learn anything by themselves
C．can look after themselves without any help
D．can't go to college without any hard work
54．The last paragraph wants to tell us that　 　．
A．the writer doesn't like the idea of the school
B．the school is quite successful in its work
C．most of the parents don't believe in the school
D．younger students learn better there than older ones
