A school in Nanjing plans to order Korean-style school uniforms (校服) for students, but parents were against the move, believing that the new uniforms looked too good and would encourage early romances among the students.

Parents: “My daughter was so excited about the Korean-style uniform, saying it’s her dream to wear a miniskirt to school every day,” a mom said. “My daughter also called her classmates to talk about how handsome the boys looked in the uniforms! If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they concentrate on their studies?”

School: We had to stop the plan because many parents were strongly against it. Some parents thought it was just a way for the school to make money, and others thought the new uniforms would take students’ attention away from their studies.

Students: The students were very disappointed about the school’s final decision. They thought the sportswear uniforms made them look dull. They said the Korean uniforms had many advantages such as raising interest in class and lifting confidence.

As for concerns about romance, the students believe that love is love and has no relationship to the uniforms.

The Department of Education: The schools can choose their own styles. Either sportswear or other uniforms are OK. Currently, most middle and elementary schools in Nanjing have sportswear uniforms.

Expert: Fashionable school uniforms can increase students’ interest in learning.

Parents don’t need to worry too much about early romances. Today’s primary and middle school students have strong personalities and their appreciation of beauty is rapidly forming. A fashionable uniform can develop their sense of belonging to the school and reduce their resistance to the school’s management.

But we don’t have to follow Korean or Japanese styles. We should design our own Chinese style uniforms.

63. Which of the following is NOT the parents’ reason for being against Korean-style school uniforms?

A. The uniforms will encourage early romances.

B. It is a way for the school to make money.

C. The new uniforms don’t wash well.

   D. The new uniforms will affect the students’ studies.

64. Students think the new uniforms will________.

   A. make them have good taste in fashion    B. make them feel confident

   C. make them feel proud of their school     D. reduce their fear of teachers

65. The opinion of the expert is to________.

A. forbid the students to wear fashionable uniforms

B. encourage the students to wear sportswear uniforms

C. design uniforms in a Chinese style

D. wear new uniforms in a foreign style

66. We can infer from the passage that_________.

A. school uniforms are mostly blue or black

B. few students are willing to wear school uniforms

C. school uniforms are a waste of money

D. schools are encouraged to choose their own uniforms

Scientists are uncovering the secrets of two port cities lost under the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, a researcher said yesterday.

Herakleion and Menouthis were rich and proud cities until something reduced them to rubble (碎石) and buried them in the mud beneath 30 feet of sea water, French underwater explorer Franck Goddio said at the American Geophysical Union conference.

“This is a mystery that is ongoing,” said Goddio, a founder of the European Institute of Marine Archeology, a Paris-based underwater research organization backed by the wealthy Hilti Foundation of Liechtenstein(列支敦士登基金會(huì)).

The destruction of the twin port cities has haunted Goddio ever since he happened upon the site about 15 miles from Alexandria while exploring sunken ships from Napoleon’s fleet.

Goddio and his group of expert divers, marine archeologists(海洋考古學(xué)家) and others, are using high powered vacuums, satellite navigation systems and sophisticated sonar(聲納) to excavate(挖掘) the sunken cities from underneath a carpet of silt about one meter (three feet) high.

Walls of shops, remains of streets and gold artifacts have been found and recovered.

Some experts believe that the port cities were destroyed by a series of massive earthquakes, much like the quakes scientists believe felled Troy(特洛伊城), Jericho and other ancient cities. The uniform direction of the collapsed columns and walls suggest an earthquake, Goddio said, but no fault lines have been found nearby.

Other researchers believe a massive wave, caused by either an offshore earthquake or a distant underwater landslide, could explain the catastrophe. Still others think rising seas and a shift in the Nile River outlet doomed the cities.

“The argument, as you can see, continues,” Goddio said.

The reason why the two port cities disappeared under the waters of Mediterranean Sea is that ______.

A. the two port cities were destroyed by huge earthquakes

B. the disappearance of the two port cities was caused by underwater landslide

C. rising seas and a shift in the Nile River outlet doomed the cities

D. the story didn’t tell us at all

From the story we can draw a conclusion that _______.

A. the two port cities were famous for their wealth and the mystery

B. the two cities belonged to France

C. some mysterious creatures from other planets destroyed the two cities

D. the American Geophysical Union conference was once held in one of the two cities

This article is probably from _______.

A. a scientific magazine       B. a report to the government

C. a school text book         D. a scientific report in a newspaper

Wugging, or web use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user. By using Everyclick.com, which is being added to a number of university computers across the UK, students can raise money every time they search, but it won’t cost them a penny.

Research shows that students are extremely passionate about supporting charity — 88% of full time students have used the Internet to give to charity. This age group is often the least likely to have their own income. 19% of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than ??5,000. With rising personal debt levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings, traditional methods of donating to charity are often not appealing (有感染力的) or possible.

Beth Truman, a 21 year old recent university graduate, has used Everyclick.com to donate to her chosen charity, the RSPCA, for two years and has seen the “wugging” movement grow in popularity with students. “When you’re at university you become more socially aware, but it’s sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself,” says Beth. “Wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis to give to charity, without costing them a single penny.”

Wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but don’t feel they have the means to do so. Students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without costing them anything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding.

Everyclick.com works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users can decide which of the UK’s 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks. Everyclick.com then makes monthly payments to every registered charity. Launched in June 2005, Everyclick.com is now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the UK.

According to the passage, “wugging” is actually ______.

A. a website       

B. a charity-related action

C. a school organization  

D. a student movement

In the case of charity, Everyclick.com ______.

A. frees students of the financial worries

B. receives much money from students

C. offers valuable information to students

D. praises students for their money-raising

What does Beth Truman think of the “wugging” movement?

A. It makes Everyclick.com popular in the UK.

B. It becomes easy to do charity because of it.

C. It results in students’ more social awareness.

D. It helps students to save money.

From the passage, we can conclude that ______.

A. most full time students do charity on the Internet every day

B. Everyclick.com helps students pay for the college education

C. “wugging” is a win-win idea for both students and charities

D. Everyclick.com is the most successful search engine in the UK

What would be the best title for this passage?

A. “Wugging”, a new popular term on the Internet.

B. British people show strong interest in charity.

C. More Britain charities benefit from the Internet.

D. Students raise money for charity by “wugging”.

第三部分：閱讀理解.(共15小題：每小題2分，30分)

閱讀下列短文，然后從各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并將該答案寫在答卷上。

A

To most of us, school means classes, teachers, schedules, grades and tests. But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts, school is very different.

Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want. There are no teachers, only “staff members”. The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to learn anyway. “You do not need to say to a three-year-old, ‘Go explore your environment.’ You can’t stop them!” says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the school. “But if you make children do what you want all day… they will lose all taste of learning.” At Sudbury Valley School, you will find children talking, reading, painting, cooking, working on computers, studying French, playing the piano, climbing trees, or just running around.Two boys spent three years just fishing!

The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote each—even the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school budget (預(yù)算，經(jīng)費(fèi)), and even which staff they want and do not want anymore.

When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.

56. What is the main idea of the article?

A. An unusual school.           B. Children’s hobbies.   

C. A school without teachers  D. Education in the US.

57. What does the school believe?

A. Teachers cannot teach children well.

B. Children learn best when they do what they want to do.

C. Learning is for adults—children should only play.

D. Children should only learn about one thing at a time.

58 What does Daniel Greenberg say about three-year-olds?

A. They love learning.         

B. They are very naughty.

C. They want to be outside all the time.      

D. They are too young to learn anything.

59. Who has the most power in the school meeting?

A. The older children have more power than the younger children.

B.A child has more power than an adult.

C. The younger children have more power than the older children.

D. Everybody has equal power.
