2013高考英语杭州市一模（抢分题）强化训练（10）及答案
A new report from the Center for Evaluation and Education Policy at Indiana University says eighteen states have full-time virtual(虚拟的) schools.There are no buildings.All classes are online.Online learners might work at different times.But there might be set times for class discussions—by text，voice or video—and virtual office hours for teachers.
Florida started the first statewide public virtual school in the United States in 1997.Today，the Florida Virtual School offers more than ninety courses.Fifty-six thousand students were enrolled as of December.Almost sixty percent were female.The school’s website says each student was enrolled in an average of two classes.Two-thirds were also enrolled in public or charter schools.Other students are home-schooled or in private schools.
Florida Virtual School has now opened the Florida Virtual Global School.Students in other countries pay for classes.Janet Heiking teaches an English class.She lives in Indianapolis，Indiana.Her students live as far away as Africa and Japan.She says they are taking her Advanced Placement class to prepare for attending an American college.They can earn college credits by passing the A．P. test.
So how good are virtual schools？Studies have shown mixed results，as that new report from Indiana University notes.For example，students at Florida Virtual School earned higher grades than those taking the same courses in the traditional way.And they scored higher on a statewide test.But virtual school students in Kansas and Colorado had lower test scores or performed at a lower level than traditional learners.Studies also find that virtual schools may not save much in operating costs.
