Although our educational system and our society generally place a high value on competition, some problems can be better solved through cooperation and some forms of learning are strengthened through cooperation. Both competition and cooperation have a place in society and can serve a useful purpose. Consequently, it is necessary to be able to engage in both processes depending on the circumstances and one’s goals.In the academic environment grades are often conceived as the major criterion (标准) for the assessment of learning. We tend to assume that the higher one’s grade average, the more one has learned, thus creating greater competition for grades. This competition can be particularly intense in fields where the financial rewards are great and opportunity is limited: law, engineering, medicine, and business.However, the measure of one’s learning is not limited to grades. It is possible to learn a great deal about a subject and receive a low grade or even no grade in the evaluation. No grade can be used to define what we learn about ourselves from sharing what we know with others. And no one can give us a grade for how we feel about ourselves and about our relationships with others. The first paragraph mainly tells us that in learning()

A. competition and cooperation are related
B. cooperation is more important
C. cooperation and competition are both needed
D. competition is more important

For a small island Great Britain has a great length of coastline, and there is no place in the whole country which is more than three hours’ journey by car from the sea. The coast is very varied, with perhaps the best parts in the southwest of England and in the west of Scotland. The coast of Devon and Cornwall, in the south-west, is much indented (向内陆凹进), with many sheltered bays and fine rough points of land extending out into the sea. With so large a population on so small an island the best parts of the coast are inevitably rather crowded during the summer, but much of Devon and Cornwall is still unspoiled, with many picturesque (风景如画的) fishing villages. The other parts of the coast are less dramatic, being partly fiat and partly steep.In the parts nearest to great centres of population big seaside-resort (海淀胜地) towns have grown up. Four of these, Brighton, Bournemouth and Southend in the south, and Blackpool in the north-west, have become important towns themselves, with more than 150, 000 permanent residents each, and there are other big seaside towns whose inhabitants include many retired people. Some of these places are remarkable for the great number of visitors they receive, some to stay for a week or a fortnight, some to spend a few hours on the beach before returning home in the evening. It will take one()to travel to any place of Great Britain by car from any part of the coast.

A. a week
B. a fortnight
C. 3 hours or less
D. more than 3 hours
