Reading 1 Read the text. Answer the questions.
Schools Today and Yesterday Schools today are different from many years ago. A long time ago, there were many students of different ages in one class, but now all the students in a class are the same age. Before, the teacher was the center of attention, and there were many exercises to copy. Today, the teacher sometimes has an assistant teacher for help. Students do many projects and work together. Sometimes students use computers to study. A long time ago, there were only subjects such as math, English and science. Now there are subjects such as I.T. and P.E. Rules are always important. For example, you mustnt be rude to your classmates or talk in class. You must also do your homework, study hard and put your hand up to ask a question. 1
