Now, there is a new-type school in New York, which has no everyday lessons, no class teachers
and even no school buildings. It is called “City-as-School”. The name just means the city itself is the
place where students learn their lessons. They are from the age of 15 to 18. The students choose areas
of work wh ich interest them. Then they help to do that work. One girl spends her week in a Mayor’s
（市长的） office helping the public with problems like housing. Then she goes to help in a theatre for
a day and she spends a week for first-year courses at college.
Well, students have to pass Maths and science exams before they enter the “school”. These
subjects are not easy to provide in “City-as-School”. Teachers watch the progress（进步）of the
students. The success rate is high. 80% of the students go to college after the “City-as-School”.
The students like the duty of their work. They have the sense of purpose（目标）. They know a lot
about different kinds of work in the city. One of the students, Liz Martin, writes “I want to say that I do
not know where I will be right now if I have never become part of City-as-School. Leaving the highschool I once studied in and going to City-as-School was the best decision (决定) I have ever made.
The way the school works to get you to go out there and learn different fields instead of sitting in a
classroom is wonderful. For all those who are in between school and dropping out, go to CAS and it
will change your life forever.”
City-as-School High School is the country’s model for high school students.
51. What do students do in“City-as-School” most of the time?
A. They do whatever they like. B. They learn Maths and Science.
C. They help with work in some areas. D. They learn all the college courses.

C. students make much mone y while studying D. students forget the duty of their work
