Where in the classroom do you prefer to sit, and why? Scientists have discovered that seating preference not only shows students’ personalities, but has a great influence on their school performance. Generally speaking, students show different attitudes depending on where they sit. Based on the research, scientists have developed a funnel－like(像漏斗的) model of “learning zones(区域)” to see the relationship between seating and active learning.
In this model, the mouth of the funnel(A) is the best position for learning. Students in this front area prove to be the most active learners. They show a greater desire(渴求) for learning, which leads them to focus(集中注意力) better and take a more active part than the rest of the class. Those in the neck of the funnel(B) don’t pay the same close attention, but they ask a lot of questions, partly because of the added confidence they feel from being in a safe zone, with others around them. Less desirable is the area “outside the funnel(C, D)，” which refers to the sides and the back rows, where students take a less active part in classroom activities and find it hard to focus their attention, falling asleep at times.
Studies about learning zones suggest that a change in traditional seating plans can benefit students. In fact, a growing number of teachers have begun less traditional seating plans, such as “U－Type.”There are no side and back areas, so teachers can expect their students to take part in activities more actively and increase student－teacher interaction(互动)．

【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了美国的Moon Day，它的历史以及庆祝方式。 1．that 解析：考查关系代词。此处用that引导定语从句，修饰先行词landing，并在定语从句中作主语。因为landing前面有序数词the first修饰，所以此处不能用which。
2．has been celebrated 解析：考查动词的时态和语态。前面的Ever since说明此句要用完成时态，Moon Day和celebrate之间是一种被动关系，因此用现在完成时的被动语态。
3．greatest 解析：考查形容词最高级。根据前面的one of the...可知，此处用形容词great的最高级，表示最伟大的成就之一。
4．largely 解析：考查副词。此处用large的副词形式修饰谓语动词celebrate。 5．the 解析：考查冠词。根据上文的in the United States可知，此处用the country特指美国。
6．in 解析：考查介词。in one’s own way意为“用某人自己的方式”。 7．them 解析：考查代词。此处用them做cut的宾语，指代前面提到的cookies。 8．learning 解析：考查非谓语动词。consider后面接动词v.－ing形式，意为“考虑做某事”。
3
9．to educate 解析：考查非谓语动词。本句话用it做形式主语，所以后面用不定式做真正的主语。
10．importance 解析：考查名词。根据前面的定冠词the可知，此处用名词importance做understand的宾语。
