T-shirts out; uniforms in
School uniforms(制服) are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That’s no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers(障碍); school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol (象征) of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity.” First, as noted above, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality (个性). They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.
In Paragraph 1, the word “benefits” probably means .

A.tasks B.messages C.differences D.advantages

From the passage we learn that uniforms in general .

A.prevent the wearers from being laughed at
B.help the wearers keep their duties in mind
C.are seen as a symbol of power
D.help to create social barriers

Some people are against school uniforms because .

A.they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms
B.they believe that uniforms will make students less creative
C.they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriers
D.they think that school uniforms are too popular

The author would probably agree that .

A.it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not
B.students’ individuality may not come from school education
C.students’ creativity is related to the clothes they choose
D.school uniforms help to create equality among students

School uniforms are becoming more and more popular and important because _____

A.they can stop the powerful social sorting and labeling.
B.if all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing.
C.uniforms can remind the wearers of their purposes and duties
D.school uniforms will affect their children’s creativity.

James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9.There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.
"J.C., "he replied.
She thought he had said "Jesse", and he had a new name.
Owens ran his first race at age 13.After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second year student in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.
A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.
The stage was set for Owens victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the AfricanAmerican winners.
"It was all right with me, "he said years later."I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway."
Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.
Owens Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles and dogs.
"Sure, it bothered me, "he said later." But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat."
In time, however, his gold medals changed his life."They have kept me alive over the years, "he once said. "Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard."

 Owens got his other name "Jesse" when.
A. he went to Ohio State University
B. his teacher made fun of him
C. his teacher took "J. C."for "Jesse"
D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet

 In the Big Ten meet,Owens

A.hurt himself in the back B.succeeded in setting many records

 We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because.

A.he was not of the right race
B.he was the son of a poor farmer
C.he didnˊt shake hands with Hitler
D.he didnˊt talk to the US president on the phone


 When Owens says "They have kept me alive over the years ",he means that the medals.

A.have been changed for money to help him live on
B.have made him famous in the US
C.have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life
D.have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs


 What would be the best title for the text?

A.Jesse Owens, A Great American Athlete
B.Golden Moment — A Lifetime Struggle
C.Making A Living As A Sportsman
D.How To Be A Successful Athlete

Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men's hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.
The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women's longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.
"We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20--25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,”said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.
"Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70,one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,”said Goldspink. "This is part of the ageing process."
What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman's heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one's.
"This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,”said Goldspink.
They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80,focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease.
The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart, said Goldspink.
The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.

The underlined word“longevity" in the second paragraph probably refers to ______.

A.health B.long life C.ageing D.effect


The text mainly talks about ______.

A.men's heart cells B.women's ageing process、
C.the gender difference D.hearts and long life


According to the text, the UK scientists have known that

A.women have more cells than men when they are born
B.women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat
C.the female heart loses few of the cells with age
D.women never lose their pumping power with age


If you want to live longer, you should

A.enable your heart to beat much faster
B.find out the reason for ageing
C.exercise regularly to keep your heart healthy
D.prevent your cells from being lost


We can know from the passage that

A.the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out
B.scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells
C.the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss
D.women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20

The day was Thankful Thursday. It's a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began years ago. Thursday has become our day to go out and make a positive contribution. On this particular Thursday, we had no idea exactly what we were going to do. At noon, I drove to a McDonald’s with my daughters because they kept complaining that they hadn’t had enough to eat at breakfast. There we saw some homeless people in the street and we bought lunch for them.
We were about to complete when we found a small woman standing at the corner, asking for change. We handed her some food, and then started to head home. Suddenly from the mirror of the car, I saw the woman waving at us, so I had to turn around and stopped where the small woman stood. She walked to our car, and said, "Thank you, lady! No one has ever done anything like this for me before." I replied, "Well, I'm glad that we were the first." Feeling uneasy, and wanting to move the conversation along, I asked, "So, when do you think you'll eat your lunch?"
She just looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said, "Oh honey, I'm not going to eat this lunch." I was confused, but before I could say anything, she continued. "You see, I have a little girl of my own at home and she just loves McDonald's, but I can never buy it for her because I just don't have the money. But you know what…tonight she is going to have McDonald's!"
I don't know if the kids noticed the tears in my eyes. So many times I had questioned whether our Acts of Kindness were too small to have effect on those poor people. Yet at that moment, I realized the truth of Mother Teresa's words: "We cannot do great things — only small things with great love."

According to this passage, the small woman was ______.

A.too happy to stand at the corner
B.too eager to ask for more food
C.too poor to buy McDonald’s
D.too busy to care for her daughter

B.The author would stop doing her acts of kindness to the poor.
C.The author’s daughters found their mother cried at the end of the day.
D.The author’s daughters would make friends with the woman’s daughter.


What would be the best title of the passage?

A.No Pains No Gains
B.No Pleasure Without Pain
C.No Small Act of Kindness
D.No Sweet Without Sweat

In a book called Magnificent Obsession, by Lloyd C. Douglas, a description is given of people helping others but doing it secretly. When difficult problems worried an individual, friends nearby would meet to discuss possible solution without the individual knowing their actions. When a solution was agreed upon, one or two of the friends would carry out the plan and solve the problem secretly , to the great delight of the worried individual. The helpers would stand by privately, content with their success. No reward was given to the problem solvers, not even a sincere “thank you”, because they were never known.
This concept is popular today but in a different way. The phrase “pay it forward” is now used when one person helps another. However, the person helped may not be able to repay the person or group that helped them. So rather than return the favor to their helpers, they are supposed to help someone else in the future, which means they pay it forward. It is a sense of responsibility which makes us want to give back in equal measure to the one who has helped us. But , in this case, the responsibility turns to helping someone in the future.
Suppose your elderly grandmother pays part of your schooling. She may tell you there is no need to repay her because it is a gift from someone who loves you very much. Nothing would please her more than to have you use her money to get a good education.
You may never be able to repay her for such a gift. However, she not only gave you some money , but she provided you with an example that you should also help other people who need it.
People with serious needs are everywhere. Many are children who need better clothes, more books and even better schools. Some are elderly people who can’t afford their medicine or a doctor’s care. Consider how you can “pay it forward” rather than pay money back to your grandmother.

The underlined word “pay it forward” means ____________________.

A.to repay someone who has helped you
B.to pay someone else who needs help
C.to help someone who has helped you
D.to help someone else who needs help


What does the writer suggest with the example of “your elderly grandmother”?

A.We should learn to respect our grandparents.
B.We should work hard to get a good education.
C.We should also lend a hand to other people in need of help.
D.We should never forget to repay people for their help.

A.everybody needs help
B.more children need help than elderly people
C.it costs a lot of money to “pay it forward”
D.nowadays many people help others without being repaid
