阅读下面短文， 从每题所给的四个选项中， 选出最佳选项。
A
In American schools, computers have taken over many of the jobs that teachers used to do. Computers ask students questions. If the students give the right answer, the computer will say, “Fantastic!” Some computers even read stories aloud to students. Students can do scientific experiments on their computers and can do homework on floppy disks (软盘).
Both students and teachers are crazy about computers. “With computers, students get help immediately,” said one teacher. “But if the students don’t have computers, they must wait for me to walk around and get to them.
“I can type faster than I can write,” said a student.” Using a computer is easier than using an eraser.”
Computers are also very patient. A teacher may become angry with a student. But computers are always calm. When a student gives the wrong answer, the computer just says,” Please try again.”
Companies that make software for schools have a difficult job. They must make the software as interesting as the programs that students watch on TV. But they are succeeding, because students like computers as much as teachers do.
56.Teachers don’t always help students at once because ____.
A. they don’t have computers B. they must help many different students
C. they are always quite slow in thinking D. they can easily get angry with the students
57. Students like computers because computers ____.
A. are fast and interesting B. are the cleverest of all
C. do experiments aloud D. say “That’s the right answer”
58. Companies make interesting software so ____.
A. students won’t get tired while studying B. TV will not take the place of computers
C. students won’t need any teacher D. teachers won’t ask students to do homework
59. The main idea of the article is ____.

Lucky is the man who has no “ skeleton in his closet.” When a man has done something in his life that he is ashamed of and that he wants to hide, he is said to have a “ skeleton in his closet.” Some people may have more than one skeleton.
As we have noted many times, it is hard to find out how these expressions begin. Sometimes, we get some hard facts. But more often we have to depend on guesswork. And that is true of this phrase, which came from England.
Before 1832, English law did not permit a doctor to cut open a dead human body for scientific examination, unless it was the corpse (尸体) of an executed (处决) criminal.
But when it became legal, more and more doctors demanded skeletons for a more scientific study of medicine. It was helpful in the advance of modern medicine. The demand had become so strong that men began to rob tombs and sell skeletons to doctors at high prices.
We are told that a doctor would usually buy just one skeleton for scientific study. It became very important in his work. But he had to keep it hidden because most people objected to keeping such a thing. As a rule, the doctor would keep his skeleton in some dark corner where it could not be seen, or hide it in a closet.
After a time, people began to suspect every doctor of hiding a skeleton in the closet. From this suspicion, the phrase “ a skeleton in the closet” took on a broader, more general meaning. To describe anything that a man wanted to keep others from discovering. It could be proof of a criminal act, or something much less serious. Well, that is one theory.
One writer, however, believes that the phrase might have come from something that really happened. It is his guess that a hidden closet in some old English country home may have turned up a real skeleton, clear proof of some old family shame or crime. Well, one man’s guess is as good as another. But this sounds like a story by the great French novelist, Balzac.
