A British schoolboy has been excluded from lessons after he organised a mass protest over a lack of homework.
Aaron Parfitt, 14, led 100 of his fellow pupils on a walkout at Bispham High School in Blackpool on 12 March over concerns about teaching standards.
Despite his eagerness to learn, Aaron was told he wasbanned from lessons for the next two days, and now claims to have been excluded again ahead of a meeting between teachers and his mother on 17 March.
Aaron originally contacted Blackpool Council and Ofsted to raise concerns over the quality of teaching before losing patience and organising the 100-strong walkout last Wednesday.
Teachers took a dim view of his actions and excluded him for two days on Thursday and Friday last week - much to the anger of his mother Janet, 52.
'I'm absolutely fuming they've excluded him because he's doing the best he can to get a good education,' she said
'He was only trying to stick up for himself and his mates and then he gets told to stay away from the school for two days,' she added.
Aaron said: 'We've had loads of different teachers and we weren't getting enough homework.I failed my maths exam in school and I was really worried because I just wanted to make sure I was able to do the work properly.'
55.What can we infer from the passage？
A.Aaron could not get enough homework
B.Aaron's teachers were not adequate to their jobs at all
C.Teachers were accused of assigning little homework
D.All students did not agree with Aaron's proposal
A.obsess
B.defeat
C.embrace
D.release

根据以下内容回答题：
Robin Hood is a familiar figure to most of US．The outlaw who robbed the rich to give to the poor and dwelt with his band of merry followers in Sherwood Forest has long been celebrated in both prose and poetry．On stage and screen，he has fascinated countless generations．Yet behind that popular character lurks a mystery：Wh0，exactly，was Robin Hood？Did he exist at all？The evidence for a real，livin9，breathing Robin Hood is rather weak．Records show that in thirteenth．century，England there were a number of people who answered to his name or to something close to it．Yorkshire birth records note the arrival of a Robin Hood who apparently died in infancy．Also，of Yorkshire was Robyn Hode，a servant to King Edward Ⅱ．The man known as Robert Hude is remembered only through a now almost illegible name on a grave stone．In Sussex，there was also Gilbert Robynhod，a man whose name appears often in the local sheriffs records for nonpayment of debts． Despite careful searches of local records by historians，there is little connecting any of these men to the legendary Robin Hood．Still，there just may be a grain of truth in the legend of Robin and his merry band． In the thirteenth century，England certainly had its share of outlaws．Perhaps the most famous was Hereward the Wake，the last Angl0—Saxon chief to resist the Norman Conquest of 1066．HereWard and countless others rebelled against Norman rule and fled into the thick forests that carpeted the English countryside． Not surprisingly，their adventures formed the basis of numerous stories and songs in which the figure of Robin Hood consistently played a key role．Robin is presence in so many different songs and stories has led to the belief that he probably did exist，although perhaps not in，such heroic form．
It was discovered in Yorkshire birth records that．
A.Robin Hood was once a servant to King Edward II
B.there was a Robin Hood who died when he was a small babv
C.Robin Hood was a name commonly used in thirteenth—century England
D.the name of Robin Hood appeared often in the local sheriffs records

One of the most colourful figures in boxing history was Daniel Mendoza, who was born in 1764. The use of gloves was not introduced until 1860 when the Marquis of Queensberry drew up the first set of rules. Though he was technically a prize-fighter, Mendoza did much to change crude prize-fighting into a sport, for he brought science to the game. In his day, Mendoza enjoyed tremendous popularity. He was adored by rich and poor alike.
Mendoza rose to fame swiftly after a boxing-match when he was only fourteen years old. This attracted the attention of Richard Humphries, who was then the most eminent boxer in England. He offered to train Mendoza and his young pupil was quick to learn. In fact, Mendoza soon became so successful that Humphries turned against him. The two men quarrelled bitterly and it was clear that the argument could only be settled by a fight. A match was held at Stilton where both men fought for an hour. The public bet a great deal of money on Mendoza, but he was defeated. Mendoza met Humphries in the ring on a later occasion and he lost for a second time. It was not until his third match in 1790 that he finally beat Humphries and became Champion of England. Meanwhile, he founded a highly successful Academy and even Lord Byron became one of his pupils. He earned enormous sums of money and was paid as much as £ 100 for a single appearance. Despite this, he was so extravagant that he was always in debt. After he was defeated by a boxer called Gentleman Jackson, he was quickly forgotten. He was sent to prison for failing to pay his debts and died in poverty in 1836.
