    People in the United States honor their parents with two special days：Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible (有责任感的) citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care.

    These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery (墓地).On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.

    Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.

    1.Which of the following is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?

    A. Parents bring up children.

    B. Parents give love and care to children.

    C. Parents educate children to be good persons.

    D. Parents pass away before children grow up.

    2.What do you think “florists” do?

    A. They sell flowers.

    B. They make and sell bread.

    C. They offer enough room for having family parties.

    D. They sell special gifts for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.

    3.What do you know from the passage?

    A. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are both in May.

    B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past.

    C. Not all the children respect their parents

    D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home.

    4.On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, ________.

    A. people usually have family parties

    B. everyone goes to visit the cemetery

    C. children always go to parents’ home

    D. hand-made cards are the most valuable gifts

    In China, if you are not married by the time you are 30, you are in for trouble: social blame and pressure from family and friends can get you down. And if you are a woman, it’s even worse.

    Many young people get married simply to get other people off their backs (免受别人的指责) . This is a serious compromise (妥协). One ends up not marrying the ideal partner.

    There are, however, a few young people who refuse to compromise: if they can’t find a good marriage partner, they say, they would rather not marry at all.

    34-year-old Kate is a university lecturer in English. She said she would not describe herself as celibatarian (独身主义者) but simply a woman who hasn’t come across the right man yet. She has sharp comments for the way in which the old generation looks at marriage.

    “Many people think marriage is a duty---to your parents, family and society. Nobody cares if your marriage is happy or not, she said, I think this is very wrong and I intend to live and act according to my own will.”

    Happily for her, her parents are open-minded and not put pressure on her. But the same does not apply to her friends. They are constantly trying to get her together with some young man or another. She always refuses politely.

    1.Miss Kate refuses to get together with some young man or another because _______.

    A. he is either too old or too young

    B. she doesn’t think he is the right man she wants

    C. he is either important or little learned

    D. he doesn’t have good manners

    2.In the first paragraph the underlined words “in for” refer to _______.

    A. interested in B. possible to suffer

    C. worried about D. satisfied with

    3.Which is NOT TRUE according to this passage?

    A. In China, one may face social blame and family pressure if one hasn’t got married by the age of 30.

    B. Miss Kate wants to many a worthy young man.

    C. Miss Kate won’t compromise if she can’t have her ideal marriage.

    D. Miss Kate’s parents are always worried about her marriage.

    4.If marriage is regarded as a duty to society, __________.

    A. nobody will pay attention to whether you are happy or not in your family life

    B. everybody will be happy and satisfied

    C. you can easily find an ideal partner

    D. young people will have nothing to worry about in marriage

    Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.

    One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.

    A second study, looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-years–old who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out(排除)that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人）may watch lots of TV.

    Their study measured the TV habits of 26-years-old between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.

    In the California study,children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.

    While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating（积累） findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms

    1.According to the California study, the low-scoring group might________.

    A. have watched a lot of TV

    B. not be interested in math

    C. be unable to go to college

    D. have had computers in their bedrooms

    2.What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?

    A. Poorly motivated 26-years-old watch more TV.

    B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.

    C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-years-old.

    D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.

    3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

    A. More time should be spent on computers.

    B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.

    C. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.

    D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.

    4.What would be the best title for this text?

    A. Computers or Television

    B. Effects of Television on Children

    C. Studies on TV and College Education

    D. Television and Children's Learning Habits

    On her first day back at school in August, Stephanie Hughes, a teenage student, was sent to the principal’s office at Woodford County High School in Kentucky, US and her mom was called to school.

    She had made a “huge” mistake－at least in the eyes of the school－by wearing a top that showed her collarbone . It was against the school’s dress code.

    “This is ridiculous!” Stacie Dunn, Hughes’s mom, wrote on the social media site Facebook. “Something needs to change!”

    The incident has become an Internet sensation. Across the US, schools like Woodford are being criticized for their dress codes. Some say the rules are especially unfair to young women.

    Over half of US public schools have a dress code, and they are often different for girls and boys, according to the National Center for Education Statistics in the US. Some dress codes, for example, ban skirts and ask for pants to be at least knee-length.

    Some have pointed out that these rules are mostly for female students. Women’s clothes are usually cut to be more fitted and shorter, while men’s clothes are longer and looser. In practice, more women will be caught breaking dress codes. The New York Post reported that last year, one school in Staten Island, New York gave 200 dress code detentions in two weeks－90 percent of which went to female students.

    Some school administrators say they simply want students to dress professionally to prepare students for their future careers. But others have told female students that their clothes present a “distraction” to male students. That idea is being criticized.

    The “distraction” argument is unfair to women, critics say. It suggests that exposed skin means that you want criticism or sexual advances.

    “These dress codes mean that girls are getting very clear messages that men have a right to your body in public spaces and it’s socially acceptable, but you will be punished,” Laura Bates, a co-founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, a project that aims to promote equality between men and women, told The Atlantic.

    Some students have taken action to change the situation. They have started online campaigns and made short films to build public support.

    Certain schools have now chosen to think again about their dress codes with parents and students. Even Woodford County High School－home of the “collarbone” ban－is thinking again about its policies. But, at least for now, the dress code debate is far from over.

    1.The underlined phrase “dress code” in Paragraph 2 means in the article.

    A. rules for dressing

    B. bans on wearing certain clothes

    C. policies for dressing professionally

    D. policies on what to wear for special occasions

    2.What does Stacie Dunn think is “ridiculous”?

    A. Her daughter making big mistakes in class.

    B. Showing collarbones being considered a huge mistake.

    C. Sharing the incident on Facebook.

    D. Being called in to school.

    3.The dress codes are mainly a problem for female students because .

    A. women’s clothes are loose and long

    B. they are often caught breaking them

    C. they often dress in a way that draws attention

    D. women’s clothes are often short and fitted

    4.The dress code debate has led to , according to the article.

    A. many students ignoring their school dress codes

    B. students starting online debates and campaigns about the incident

    C. some schools reconsidering their policies with parents and students

    D. public support of more discussions about equality between men and women
