Most middle school students find it boring to learn English. But students in Yat Sen middle school in New York, US, don’t think so. Why? Because they are in the school of One Program, which asks students to work on their own or in small groups on puters to have math lessons.
“The program gives the students a new learning style. No traditional classroom can pare with it. We give each lesson according to the students’ interest and their strong and weak points,” said JoelⅠ. Klein, the school’s head teacher, “we’re looking for a new way that interest students children.”
Students enjoy these math lessons, especially lessons with video games. They must find out the answers to math problems to get through the game. One such game is Dimension M. As students move through mazes(迷宫) with their keyboards, some questions e up.
Caleb Deng had to answer the question: What is 5+ (6×3)? He calculated on paper quickly because there was just a minute left to play.
“ I was right,” said Deng, 14, as he ended the game with a high score (高分). “this really makes math lessons more exciting, since we are fighting to learn better.”

解析：本文是篇说明文。主要说明了美国的Yet Sen学校的孩子们学习数学的一种新的方式：通过操纵电脑，走迷宫游戏这样的新的方法喜欢上了数学
【小题1】细节理解题由第一段可知，美国Yet Sen学校的孩子们，通过操纵电脑喜欢上了数学。
【小题2】推理判断题根据第二段的描述可知，学校老师根据学生的兴趣爱好、强项与弱点进行授课，可知这个项目对大部分学生而言是有趣的，而不是无聊的，故B项表述错误。
【小题3】词义猜测题根据下文的：他只剩下一分钟玩的时间，可以推断，他必须在纸上演算一下这道题目。
【小题4】推理判断题通过Caleb Deng演算数学题的过程，可知，主要告诉我们他们是怎样通过录像游戏来学习数学的，故选D。
【小题5】主旨大意题通读全文可知，文章主要说明了美国的Yet Sen学校的孩子们通过操纵电脑，走迷宫游戏这样的新的方法喜欢上了数学，故选C。
