School Uniforms not Cool Enough?

　　Believe it or not, there are good reasons for wearing a school uniform．It makes you feel proud of your school．It builds a common spirit of unity among students and reminds them of the values and history of their school．But for most students, school uniforms are not something to be proud of at all．

　　The main student complaints about school uniforms are：simple colors, boring designs and bad quality．And Huang Xiuzhen, a teacher at Conghua Middle School in Guangzhou, said that as a teacher and a mother, she eagerly hopes the quality of school uniforms will be improved soon．

　　What has caused all these problems?Chen Hong, a uniform designer in Shenzhen, pointed out that problems arise because the whole society doesn't see the importance of the school uniform．

　　"Most designers are likely to stick to the same old fashion, because there are no professionals(專業(yè)人員)of that work for students," Chen said．

　　"Besides, high quality calls for a high price," said Chen, "But in some schools, the annual expense for each student's uniform is only 50 to 60 yuan．"

　　"How can we produce high quality clothes with so little money?"

　　Even with these problems, efforts have been made to change the situation．A school clothes competition was held in April in Beijing．Thirty-seven uniforms, to be seen in schools next spring, were selected from 570．"We will offer the samples(樣品)for schools to choose．" Zhai said．

　　Yet the Spirit Clothes Co．Ltd thinks that the most important thing is that each school has a different uniform．This makes each school unique(獨(dú)一無二)．

　　"The perfect uniform should remind the students of the school's honor and cause them to be proud of it whenever and wherever they are．" Chen said．

　　Zhai added, "During the 2008 Olympic Games, the whole world will see the new appearance of our 21st century's young generation with new school uniforms．"

A
In 1921, Lewis Lawes became the warden （監(jiān)獄長） at Sing Sing Prison of New York State．No prison was tougher than Sing Sing during that time．But when Warden Lawes retired some 20 years later, that prison had become a humanitarian institution．Those who studied the system said credit for the change belonged to Lawes．But when he was asked about the transformation, here’s what he said, “I owe it all to my wonderful wife, Catherine, who is buried outside the prison walls．”
Catherine Lawes was a young mother with three small children when her husband became the warden．Everybody warned her from the beginning that she should never set foot inside the prison walls, but that didn’t stop Catherine!
When the first prison basketball game was held, she went into the gym with her three beautiful kids and she sat in the stands with the inmates．Her attitude was: “My husband and I are going to take care of these men and I believe they will take care of me! I don’t have to worry!” She insisted on getting acquainted with them and their records．She discovered one convicted murderer was blind so she paid him a visit．Holding his hand in hers she said, “Do you read Braille?” “What’s Braille?” he asked．Then she taught him how to read．Later, Catherine found a deaf-mute in prison．She went to school to learn how to use sign language．
Many said that Catherine Lawes was the body of Jesus that came alive again in Sing Sing from 1921to 1937．Then, she was killed in a car accident．The next morning Lewis Lawes didn’t come to work, so the acting warden took his place．It seemed almost instantly that the prison knew something was wrong．The following day, her body was resting in a casket in her home, three-quarters of a mile from the prison．As the acting warden took his early morning walk, he was shocked to see a large crowd of the toughest, hardest-looking criminals gathered like a herd of animals at the main gate．He came closer and noted tears of grief and sadness．He knew how much they loved Catherine．He turned and faced the men．
“All right, men, you can go．Just be sure and check in tonight!” Then he opened the gate and a parade of criminals walked, without a guard, the three-quarters of a mile to stand in line to pay their final respects to Catherine Lawes．And every one of them checked back in．Every one!
41．Catherine was not afraid of getting inside the prison walls because she believed ______．
A．one good turn deserves another      B．no pains, no gains
C．a(chǎn) new broom sweeps clean         D．virtue never grows old

A．The acting warden’s requirement    B．The strict rules of the prison
C．Their respect for Catherine        D．The force of the guards
44．What is the best title of the passage?
A．A Tough Prison                            B．A Woman Bringing Changes
C．A warden Caring for Prisoners         D．A Great Wife

Dearest Mom and Dad,

I’ m afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school principal is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer.

The trouble started last night when I was smoking in bed. This breaks the rules, of course. We are not supposed to smoke at all.

As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away.

Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught fire.

There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning.

The principal phoned for the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire department arrived, the whole school was in flames. Many of the girls are in the hospital.

The principal says that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for the damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.

I’m very sorry about this.

Much love,

Sarah
