They are usually three to five days long and include rope and rock climbing, going to sea in a small boat, sleeping in a tent at night, taking long walks in the forest, and learning to make a fire. It’s real life. One careless mistake could make someone really get hurt. Are those outdoor skills really important? Minister of Education Ng Chee Meng says that the outdoor courses help students develop skills like critical thinking ( 批 判 性 思 维 ), teamwork, and good communication — abilities that are necessary for work and life. He believes that these skills are as important as traditional subjects. Students need to learn from books, but for some lessons, reading isn’t as useful as doing. What do the students think? Angelique, a student from Singapore, went for a boat trip in the sea. “It helped me to grow stronger,” she says. The trip was stressful because it was stormy that day. There were moments (片刻) when she felt afraid and hopeless. But she remembered that “smooth seas never made a skilled sailor (水手)” and felt brave enough to continue against the storm. “I am thankful for this amazing chance,” she says. Right now, students attend the courses with groups from their own school. After 2020, however, all students will do the course in groups from several different schools. Why does this matter? Good communication skills are more important now than ever. Working closely with students from other backgrounds is a great way to learn this useful lesson. One student said it this way, “There is nothing to be afraid of and nothing’s impossible.” And that’s a great lesson to learn. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )21.
