請點擊右上角的分享按鈕與好友共享第三十五篇Going Her Own Way When she was twelve, Maria made her first important decision about the course of her life. She decided that she wanted to continue her education. Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay home after primary school, though some attended private Catholic finishing schools. There they learned a little about music, art, needlework, and how to make polite conversation. This was not the sort of education that interested Maria-or her mother. By this time, she had began to take her studies more seriously. She read constantly and brought her books everywhere. One time she even brought her math book to the theater and tried to study in the dark. Maria knew that she wanted to go on learning in a serious way. That meant attending the public high school , something that very few girls did. In Italy at the time, there were two types of high schools; the classical schools and the technical schools. In the classical .schools, the students followed a very traditional program of studies, with courses in Latin and Greek language and literature, and Italian literature and history1. The few girls who continued studying after primary school usually chose these schools. Maria, however, wanted to attend a technical school. The technical schools were more modern than the classical schools and they offered courses in modem languages, mathematics, science, and accounting2. Most people-including Maria s father-believed that girls would never be able to understand these .subjects. Furthermore, they did not think it was proper for girls to study them. Marin did not care if it was proper or not. Math and science were the subjects that interested her most. But before she could sign up for the technical school, she had to win her fathers approval. She finally did, with her mothers help, though for many years after, there was tension in the family. Marias father continued to oppose her plans, while her mother helped her. In 1883, at age thirteen, Maria entered the Regia Scuola Tecnica Michelangelo Buonarroti in Rome. Her experience at this school is difficult for us to imagine. Though the courses included modem subjects, the teaching methods were very traditional. Learning consisted of memorizing long lists of facts and repeating them back to the teacher. Students were not supposed to ask questions or think for themselves in any way. Teachers were very demanding, discipline in the classroom was strict, and punishment was severe for those who failed to achieve or were disobedient.詞匯：discipline /dIsIplIn/n. 紀律，學科，訓練，懲罰punishment /pQnIFmEnt/n. 懲罰，嚴厲對待，虐待注釋：l. In the classical schools, the students followed a very traditional program of studies, with courses in Latin and Greek language and literature, and Italian literature and history.在傳統(tǒng)學校中，學生們都依照一種非常傳統(tǒng)的教學方式學習，包含拉丁語，希臘語與文學課，還有意大利文學與歷史。2 The technical schools were more modem than the classical schools and they offered courses in modern languages，mathematics，science，and accounting .技術學校比傳統(tǒng)學校要現(xiàn)代得多，他們提供的課程有現(xiàn)代語言、教學、自然科學，以及會計學。練習：1.Maria wanted to attend _.A) private finishing schoolB) school with Latin and GreekC) technical high schoolD) school for art and music2.In those days, most Italian girls _.A) went to classical schoolsB) went to finishing schoolsC) did not go to high schoolD) went to technical schools3.You can infer from this passage that_.A) girls usually attended private primary schoolsB) only boys usually attended technical schoolsC) girls did not like going to schoolD) only girls attended classical schools4.Maria s father probably _.A) had very modern views about womenB) had very traditional views about womenC) had no opinion about womenD) thought women could not learn Latin5.High school teachers in Italy in those days were_.A) very modemB) very intelligentC) quite scientificD) quite strict答案與題解：1C本題的問題是：Maria 想去個怎樣的學校？由文中第三段可明確得出結論Maria， however，wanted to attend a technical school.
