All schools have their own rules (规则). The rules change from one school to another. Some schools are much stricter(严格) than others. There are also some rules that are strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules:
Strict Japanese rules
Most schools ask students to wear uniforms, such as sports suits or skirts. But Japanese schools even have rules about the colour of underwear! They also need that girls' socks should be folded(折叠) in a certain way and boys' heads should be shaved(剃).
Other Japanese schools tell students that they can't go to the movies after sunset.
Different shoes in the USA
At some American schools, students have to change their shoes when they go into the schools every day.  This makes sure students won't fall over on the floors and keeps the schools clean.
No strange hair in the UK

From Asia to America and everywhere in between, Swing﹣an energetic form of dance that includes six﹣step and eight﹣step rhythms(节奏) ﹣ has taken the world by storm. Making a recent comeback, swing dance floors have popped up all over the world. Many clubs make fans of Swing happy by holding nights when swing music is played, and sometimes even offering classes to attract customers.

Though Swing is now popular worldwide, it first appeared alongside the jazz movements of the 1920s and 1930s in New York City. While listening to jazz, the young black people of that time developed the movements of the Lindy Hop ﹣ a style of dance that is best known for a break away or 'swing out' move and sudden improvisation(即兴表演).

It was reportedly given this name when a reporter was interviewing a person at the dance hall who was watching other couples dance. When asked what that dance was called, the watcher looked at a newspaper next to him that had an article about Lindbergh﹣ the first person to fly alone across the Atlantic(大西洋)﹣which was titled, 'Lindy Hops the Atlantic'. Then the watcher announced that the 'Lindy Hop' was the name of the dance, and it has stuck since then.

In 1926, the Savoy Ballroom was the first large business to offer a place for people to listen to swing music and dance. With its huge dance floor, the Savoy became a big success overnight, attracting some of the best dancers and musicians in the New York area.

Within ten years, the Lindy Hops was sweeping through the United States and became a symbol of unity, as young people of all racial(种族的)backgrounds crowded into dance halls to swing the night away. Traditional dance teachers did not welcome it because they thought it was not even a real dance and were quite sure about its demise but Swing has proved them wrong; it continues to be one of the world's most fun dances.

(1)The writing purpose of this passage is  

A. to introduce a popular form of dance

B. to discover the fun secrets of a dance

C. to tell stories about an energetic dance

D. to describe the special moves of a dance

(2)Which of the following words has the closest meaning to 'demise'?  

A. Challenge.

B. Change.

C. Development.

D. Death.

(3)What can we learn about Swing?  

A. It's a lively dance with strict rules.

B. It has a close connection to a pilot.

C. It has a history of around 90years.

D. It attracts mostly young black people.

(4)What can we infer(推断)from the passage?  

A. The dance style will soon be accepted by traditional dance teachers.

B. The name was changed from 'Lindy Hop' to 'Swing' in the 1940s.

C. The movements of different Swing dancers always look the same.

D. The dance might have become unpopular sometime in its history.

Sarah stood in front of the mirror(镜子). "It looks like a raincoat on me," she said.

"Perhaps the blue," said Mama, gently.

"Sure," the shopkeeper said. But when he took the blue coat, there on the shelf behind all of the dark coats, hidden like a spring flower in winter darkness, there, as if by magic, was a pink coat.

"A pink coat!" Sarah cried. "I want the pink coat."

"That coat is smaller than the other ones," Papa said.

Sarah spoke up. "I'm small, too. Papa, please let me try it on, Mama? Please?"

"It wouldn't hurt to let her try it on," Mama said.

Without a word, the shopkeeper took the coat from the shelf and held it for Sarah.

"Ohhh!" Sarah said. The coat was smooth and shiny inside like her sister Sylvia's blouses. "Ahhh!"

Sarah stood very straight and looked in the mirror. She looked for a very long time. In the pink coat she looked like a spring flower.

"Sarah!" Mama said.

Sarah looked up. Mama was standing behind her. She was holding the brown coat.

"I'm afraid the pink coat will only fit one year," Mama said, taking a step closer.

"And there's no one to pass it on to," said Papa.

And the shopkeeper said, "It's wise to save money."

Sarah backed away. No one was going to put her into a raincoat again. She wanted to be a flower.

"Sarah!" It was Papa. He came over to her. "You're old enough to know that you can't always have your own way," he said seriously.

"Wise and true," said the shopkeeper.

Sarah took off the pink coat, slowly.

"It is her colour, though," Mama said.

"Ahh," said the shopkeeper. "Anyone can see how the pink of the coat brings out the roses in her face."

Papa looked thoughtful for a moment.

"We are lucky." continued Mama, "that it is only one little coat for Sarah and not also new coats for Sylvia and Susan and Sally."

Papa looked from the brown coat to the pink coat. "The cows will give milk soon enough," he said "And how can we let Sarah wear a brown coat when she looks like a flower in this one?"

"Papa!" Sarah cried, putting on the pink coat back, quickly. She threw her arms around Papa's neck. " " she whispered.

"Like a rose in spring," Papa said.

(1)What did Sarah try on first?  

A. A big pink coat.

B. A small pink coat.

C. A big brown coat.

D. A small brown coat.

(2)Why did Mama want Sarah to try brown and blue?  

A. Because Sarah looked better in them.

B. Because Sarah could wear them longer.

C. Because they were big enough for Sarah.

D. Because they cost less than the pink one.

(3)What did Sarah most probably say to Papa in the end?  

A. How do I look?

B. How does the coat look?

C. I do look like a flower, don't I?

D. The coat looks nice, doesn't it?

Mind Maps

Mind maps are a great way of showing a picture of information that you need to learn. You can use mind maps for all kinds of learning. They work very well for vocabulary when you are learning a new language.

1Draw a circle in the middle of the page and write the vocabulary subject in the middle. For example:

transport.

2Brainstorm some word groups for 'transport' and think of headings for each one. For example:

sea transport

land transport

air transport

For each one, draw a short line from the centre circle outwards. Add another circle and write the new group word in the middle.

3Look at each group and try to add more groups. For example, in 'land transport' there are two sub﹣groups;

●road

●rail

Draw two more lines, add two more circles and write the two new headings inside them.

4When you can't make any new groups, add a line for each word you know. Write the words along the lines or, if you have space, write them inside more circles.

5As you learn new vocabulary, add it to the mind map.

6To make the mind maps even better, use colour to show important ideas or parts of the map.

(1)The instructions above mainly show us  

A. what mind maps are

B. how to draw mind maps

C. what mind maps can do

D. how to make mind maps better

(2)What can we learn about mind maps?  

A. Mind maps are usually started with a line.

B. Mind maps should be simple, with no colour.

C. A mind map is only used for language learning.

D. A mind map is a picture with useful information.

(3)Which of the following shows the right order of making a mind map?  

a. Draw a circle in the middle of the page.

b. Add new circles and write the group words 'sea', 'land' and 'air' in them.

c. Write 'transport' in the middle of the circle.

d. Brainstorm some word groups for 'transport'.

A. a﹣c﹣d﹣b.
