更多"In New York, there is now a school "的相关试题:
[单项选择] In New York, there is now a school with no daily lessons, no class teachers, not even a school building. The "school" is a now project. It is called "City-as-School" and the name means just that, the city itself is the place where 350 students, between the age of 15 and 18, learn their lessons.
Students choose areas of work which interest them and then they help to do that work. For instance, one girl spends her week in the offices of a Congresswoman —— an elected official —— helping the public with problems such as pensions, housing, etc. Then she goes to help in a theatre for a day and she spends one day a week taking first-year courses at college.
City-as-School is 30 years old. The education system in New York accepts it now, as an alternative to final years at school.
