22、Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）

Imagine a school where you are the only student—where you come first in every test. Welcome to the life of ten-year-old Aron Anderson, who goes to school in Out Skerries, a group of small, remote islands in Scotland. Aron has been the only boy at his school for two months.

The Out Skerries Islands, which are around 280 km from the coast of Scotland, are home to about 70 people. The nearest town is Lerwick on the Shetland Islands. You can only get there by boat and it takes two and a half hours. Apart from Aron’s school, there are two shops, a church and a community hall on the islands.

Aron isn’t the only child on the islands and he hasn’t always been the only student at the school. Until July there were several other children there, including Aron’s two brothers. But now they are older, so they go to the secondary school in Lerwick. They only go back to their homes at the weekend. Aron has been the only student since September.

The school is very small. It has two classrooms, an art room, a music room and a library. Each week Aron studies Maths, English, Science and Art with the same teacher. She also gives him PE lessons. This is usually an hour-long walk around the islands. He also has the school playground all to himself. Of course, there is one problem. He has no one to play with.

What’s more, Aron’s education isn’t cheap. It costs the UK government £75, 357 each year. That is twice the price it costs parents to send a child to Britain’s most famous private school, Eton. Some people want to close down the school. They think it is too much money to spend on one child’s education.

Aron has lived in Out Skerries since he was born and loves the outdoor life. He enjoys exploring the islands on his bike and diving into the sea from the pier. Like most boys his age, he also likes watching TV and playing on his games console.

But his mother, who works in one of the shops on the islands, is worried that Aron might get lonely. She would like to see more families with children coming to live there. A lot of people have moved away since the local salmon factory closed ten years ago. That’s why there are so few children on the islands and why Aron has found himself being known as the loneliest schoolboy in Britain.

【1】Aron’s school is in Out Skerries in ________.

A．England

B．Scotland

C．Wales

D．Northern Island

【2】It takes Aron ________ to get to the nearest town, Lerwick by boat.

A．1.5 hours

B．2 hours

C．2.5 hours

D．3 hours

【3】Aron likes to do the following activities except ________.

A．riding his bike on the islands

B．playing volleyball

C．diving into the sea

D．playing games

【4】Aron’s mother is worried that Aron gets ________ in school.

A．relaxed

B．excited

C．frightened

D．lonely

【5】Which of the following sentences is right?

A．Aron is the only child on the islands.

B．Now Aron’s brothers attend school in Lerwick.

C．Two different teachers teach Aron.

D．It’s cheaper to study in Aron’s school than in Eton.

【6】We may find this article in the ________ section in a school newspaper.

A．advertisement

B．sports

C．story

D．health
