Question

　　“My kids really understand solar and earth heat energy,”says a second-grade teacher in Saugus, California. “Some of them are building solar

collectors for their energy course.”These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP), a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading, writing and math skills, and more.

　　The children don't just plan any city. They map and analyze（分析）the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect（建筑师）who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations.“Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,” says the teacher who developed this program, “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, and elected' official' and 'planning group' make all the design decisions for the model city, and the teacher steps back and becomes and adviser.”

　　CBEP is a set of activities, games, and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving; observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the children's own standards.

解析：

(1) 最后一段第一句话提到：CBEP是一项集活动、游戏、模仿于一体的计划，目的在于为解决问题提供所必需的基本步骤，所以只有C项内容正确。 (2) 第二段第三句提到：一位建筑师每周一次到教室里来，在他的帮助下，学生发明了新的方法来满足需要和创建模型。由此可知，D项内容正确。 (3) 第二段第四句话“Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,”says the teacher who developed this program．可知C项正确。 (4) 第二段第四句提到“构想未来大楼给予学生们许多自由”下一句又提到“他们尽可能运用丰富的想像力，而不必害怕受到斥责，因为在未来的概念上是没有错误答案的……”。由此可见D项正确。
