The first day of school always goes wrong. For many students in the United States, however, this year it was even more so. It was all due to one extra school policy – they are now required to follow a new standardized dress code.

According to the handbooks of all high schools in Allentown, Pennsylvania, students must wear short- or long-sleeve polo shirts and khaki (卡其色) or black pants. Skinny jeans, leggings and open-toe shoes are not allowed.

Allentown schools are not alone. At Edgewater High School in Florida, shirts must have collars or sleeves, and pants must not sag (下垂) and reach at least mid-thigh (大腿中部). No see-through shirts or T- shirts with references to sex on them are allowed.

Overall, more than half of US public schools now enforce dress codes, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. About 57 percent of schools now have a “strict dress code”, up from more than 47 percent a decade earlier, USA Today said.

Among young people, there are mixed emotions. Some don’t mind wearing similar clothes every day while others aren’t happy. Despite dress codes in many school districts, some students still come to school – even on their first day – in skirts that are too short, necklines that are too low and sagging pants that don’t stay up on their hips.

But there are punishments. If they are out of dress code, students can be removed from the classroom until they fix the problem. In Florida, wearing sagging pants is illegal for youths according to a state law issued in 2011. Breaking the rule results in not being able to do after-school activities, and even being forbidden to attend class.

Some US schools go further and require students to wear uniforms. Many say that they simplify their jobs, saving teachers from having to punish students for wearing skirts or shorts that are too short, for instance. They can also prevent feelings of competition and envy among students.

“It takes away the daily fashion show and helps level the playing field a little bit with the haves and have-nots,” longtime school safety consultant Ken Trump told USA Today.

Critics of uniforms say they rob students of individuality. But for some people, that’s a lazy argument.

“Clothing isn’t the only form of self-expression. Students should know that it’s what they do that counts,” commented a parent named Beth Kassab in The Orlando Sentinel in Florida.

1.According to the new standardized dress code, students in the US are allowed to wear .

A. knee-length pants

B. shirts without sleeves

C. transparent T-shirts

D. jeans sticking to skin

2.What is the main idea of Para 5?

A. What the new dress code is.

B. How students dressed themselves.

C. What punishments students may receive.

D. How students responded to the code.

3.Students in some US schools are required to wear uniforms Not to .

A. pay less attention to their appearance

B. prevent comparison among students

C. bring out the best in students

D. spare teachers from punishing students for their improper dress

4.What do Beth Kassab’s words imply?

A. Uniforms limit the individuality of students.

B. Students should pay more attention to their behavior.

C. Clothing is of no importance to students.

D. Students should concentrate more on their study.

Most damagingly, anger weakens a person’s ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour. The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.

Not everyone experiences anger in the same way; what angers one person may amuse another. The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces. In contemporary culture, physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated. We no longer regard duels (決斗) as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one person’s awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another.

Anger can be identified in the brain, where the electrical activity changes. Under most conditions EEG (腦電圖) measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal (額葉前部) areas. Behaviourally this corresponds to the general even-handed disposition (意向) that most of us possess most of the time. But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren’t balanced and, as a result of this, we’re likely to react. And our behavioural response to anger is different from our response to other emotions, whether positive or negative.

Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour: we move closer to people we like. Most negative emotions, in contrast, are associated with avoidance behaviour: we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us anxious. But anger is an exception to this pattern. The angrier we are, the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger. This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as offensive anger: the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger. This approach-and-confront behaviour is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry (不對(duì)稱) of EEG activity. Interestingly, this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy (同感) towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response. In defensive anger, in contrast, the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and the angry person feels helpless in the face of the anger-inspiring situation.

1.The “duels” example in Paragraph 2 proves that the expression of anger ________.

A. usually has a biological basis

B. varies among people

C. influences one’s thinking and evaluation

D. is socially and culturally shaped

2.What changes can be found in an angry brain?

A. Balanced electrical activity can be spotted.

B. Unbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas.

C. Electrical activity corresponds to one’s behaviour.

D. Electrical activity agrees with one’s disposition.

3.Which of the following is typical of offensive anger?

A. Approaching the source of anger.

B. Trying to control what is disliked.

C. Moving away from what is disliked.

D. Feeling helpless in the face of anger.

4.What is the key message of the last paragraph?

A. How anger differs from other emotions.

B. How anger relates to other emotions.

C. Behavioural patterns of anger.

D. Behavioural responses to anger.

Dear Michelle,

My Dad hates my Mom. He tells me that she is a liar and that I should not trust her. Of course, they are divorced but they have “joint custody” (共同監(jiān)護(hù)). What a joke! I am a 15-year-old girl, my brother is 9, and we have a life of hell, frankly.

We live one week on and one week off. This was the “brilliant” idea of both of my parents, which was fair to them but ruining my life. I cannot get away from his voice and his putting my mom down. Sometimes I think about running away. What should I do?

A Hopeless Ant

Dear Hopeless Ant,

First, thank you for trusting me with your problem. If all you said is correct, then there are several things that you can and should do to help yourself, your brother, and oddly enough, your parents.

You need a family counselor. Such a person could listen to each family member alone and then meet together to talk about the situation.

If refused, you need to talk to a counselor in your school. You need to be heard, and you need an adult who will listen. A school counselor can organize a meeting with your parents.

Perhaps you need to write to your mother. Writing things down allows people to go over it more than one time.

I cannot imagine that she will stand passively by and do nothing at all to help once she reads how you feel. Your father needs a letter as well. He may not realize the destructive effect that it has on his children.

Lastly, have a plan in mind when all else fails that is not self-destructive. Life passes very quickly, sweet heart, and you will grow up and have your own life.

Until then, you need to keep yourself safe. Never doubt that it will get better. Write back and let me know how everything is going.

Michelle

1.The Hopeless Ant wrote the letter to _____.

A. explain her worries

B. ask for advice

C. describe her family

D. express dissatisfaction

2.The Hopeless Ant hated her father because he_____.

A. often told lies

B. divorced her mother

C. didn’t love his children

D. wasn’t friendly to her mother

3.In which part of a magazine will the text probably appear?

A. Life. B. Advertisement.

C. Entertainment. D. Education.

After years of research and testing, the hybrid car was developed and put on the market. It’s an interesting and exciting new improvement in today’s world as we look for better ways to protect the quality of the air we breathe and conserve our natural resources.

The quality of our air is affected by many different things. But one of the largest sources of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and gasoline which are used to power a car’s engine. The EPA has set national standards to help control the level of harmful pollutants sent off into the air, and the automobile industry has acted by producing a hybrid car that uses less gas and therefore causes less pollution.

A hybrid car is a combination of a regular car that runs on gasoline and an electric car that is battery powered. Some people tend to think that since the hybrid car is partially electric, you have to plug it in to charge it. But that’s not how it works. The 144 volt battery pack is actually recharged( 充電 ) through the energy that is produced when the car’s brakes are used. This is referred to as “regenerative braking”, because it generates electricity.

Although the hybrid car still runs on gasoline most of the time, this helps it use less gas than a regular car. When the driver stops at a traffic light, the engine automatically ( 自動(dòng)地;機(jī)械地 )shuts off to save fuel. Then, as soon as the driver puts the car in gear and touches the gas pedal, the engine starts back up.

Have you ever ridden in a car with someone who ran out of gas? That probably wouldn’t happen if you were riding in a hybrid car. It flashes a warning on its computer screen that says, “I am low on gas”. When it completely runs out, the warning reads, “YOU ARE NOW OUT OF GAS!” Then the electric power supply kicks in to let the driver travel a few more miles to a gas station.

1.According to the passage, the word “hybrid” refers to ________.

A. a high tech discovery B. energy saving

C. a new invention D. a combination of two things

2.“Regenerative braking” is an important process of the hybrid car because ________.

A. it allows the car to come to a quick stop

B. it gives the driver a smoother ride

C. it produces energy to charge the battery

D. it can control the speed of the car

3.Which of the following is right about the EPA?

A. They designed hybrid cars.

B. They outlawed (宣布……為不合法) the burning of fossil fuels.

C. They set important guidelines that help control pollution.

D. Their main purpose is to protect endangered plants and animals.

4.Which of the following is the reason for developing hybrid cars?

A. They use less gas than regular cars.

B. They’re safer to drive than most cars.

C. They’re more modern than other cars.

D. They cost less than regular cars
