56.Mount Cook National Park is home of the highest mountains and the longest glaciers.It is alpine(高山) in the purest sense﹣with skyscraping peaks,glaciers and permanent snow fields,all set under a star﹣studded sky. Key Highlights
Although it includes 23peaks over 3,000metres high,this park is very accessible.State Highway 80leads to Mt Cook Village which is situated beside scenic Lake Pukaki and provides a
comfortable base for alpine activities.Far from city lights,the stargazing here is magnificent﹣Aoraki Mount Cook National Park forms the majority of New Zealand's only International Dark Sky Reserve.
Mountaineers regard the area to be the best climbing region,while less skilled adventurers find plenty of satisfaction with the mountain walks that lead to alpine tarns,herb fields and spectacular glacier views.Encounters(遇到) with cheeky kea (mountain parrots) are part of the fun. Key Activities Mountain walks
There are 10short walks beginning near the village.All tracks are formed and well marked.The Red Tarns Track,Kea Point and the Hooker Valley Track each take around two hours return.For more experienced alpine hikers,there are three mountain pass routes﹣over the Mueller,Copland and Ball passes.

58.A report released this month found that grouping children by ability is on the rise again﹣teaching students in groups of similar ability has improved achievement for fast and slow learners alike﹣and who wouldn't want bright kids to be able to move ahead,or strugglers to get the help they need?
But for most kids,labels(标签) applied early in life tend to stick,even if they are wrong. Sorting school children by ability has long been controversial.In some countries,especially in Asia,school﹣wide tracking(分流) remains normal.Children are tested and placed in different schools that direct them toward professional or vocational careers.Movement between the tracks is rare.
School﹣wide tracking decreased in U.S.schools in the 1960s and 1970s.It never died out,though.Sorting students into separate tracks for math at about junior high school age continues to be common,and other forms of tracking persist as well. Unlike tracking,which means sorting students into separate classrooms,ability grouping happens within classrooms.When done according to the latest research,it has proven to promote achievement.
Ability grouping is changeable and temporary.Within classrooms,students might be divided into different learning groups dealing with materials of different levels.Any students who master concepts can move upward between groups,and the student groups might look different from subject to subject and unit to unit.For instance,a student who stands out in language arts might be at an average or slower level in math.A student who flies through multiplication tables might need extra help with fractions.Students who lag in reading can be pulled out of the classroom in small groups for practice with a tutor until their reading improves.
Research shows ability grouping within classes has more positive benefits than
tracking.However,that must be weighed against the challenges involved.In many regular classrooms,the differences between student ability levels are very big.That presents challenges for teachers and low﹣performing students to constantly compare themselves with students who seem to fly through school with ease.
