A.a biology textbook B.a fashion magazine C.a newspaper D.a book review D BALTIMORE – When 15 – year – old Michael Thomas left home for school last May, he couldn’t have been prouder. On his feet, thanks to his mother’s hard work, were a pair of new Air Jordans - $ 100 worth of leather, rubber and statusthat to today’s youth are the Mercedes – Benz of athletic footwear. The next day it was James David Martin, 17, who was walking down the street in Thomas’ new sneakers, while Thomas lay dead in a field not far from his school. Martin was arrested for murder. For the Baltimore school system, Thomas’ death was the last straw. He was the third youngster to have been killed over his clothes in five years. Dozens of others had been robbed of name brand sneakers, designer jogging suits, leather jackets and jewelry. This fall, the school board announced a dress codepreventing leather skirts and jackets, jogging suits, gold chains and other expensive items. Clothes, said board president Joseph Smith, had just gotten out of hand. Across the nation, parents, school officials, psychologists and even some children agree. They say that today’s youngsters, throughout the nation, have become clothes fixated.They worry about them, compete over them, ignore school for them and sometimes even rob and kill for them. In many cases, students are so concerned about what they and their classmates are wearing, they forget what they come to school for, educators said. In response, many public schools, mainly in Eastern cities, have adopted school uniforms to cut down on competition. Educators say, in the current fashion climate, dressing students alike allows them more freedom to be individuals. 查看更多

Ten Chinese PhD students are demanding that Beijing Normal University Professor Yu Dan be away from her television show on CCTV 10. They argue that her on-air explanations of Confucius’s Analects(孔子《论语》) are “incorrect and misleading”.

Yu is known for explaining Confucius’s Analects to a TV audience. But some complain that her explanations are unfaithful to Chinese tradition.

But Yu doesn’t seem to worry too much about her critics, saying, “It’s a matter of personal choice. Some like KFC, while others like McDonalds.”

STEALING some online game-player’s password might seem less harmful than credit card theft. It does keep the victim from wearing himself out all night playing. But it is not all that nice, says 19-year-old Zhang Qiwen, in Shanghai.

Last August, Zhang accidentally downloaded a Trojan while playing Warcraft. The Trojan is a type of virus used by hackers to steal people’s passwords. Overnight the Trojan transferred all the “gold” (game credits) from Zhang’s private account to an unknown account. Zhang hopes the police will find and punish the thief, who can also pocket some cash since the stolen “gold” can go on sale online.

New England’s largest indoor public garden has opened here in a historic park, and officials expect it to become a center for learning about plants as well as a top attraction for visitors.

The glass-walled Roger Williams Park Botanical Center, which opened March 2, offers a tropical garden, an orchid garden, and a Mediterranean room with a collection of citrus trees. The center also has two classrooms and will offer gardening classes provided by the University of Rhode Island.

Roger Williams Park, named for the city’s 17th-century founder, also has a zoo. The park already attracts more than 2 million visitors year, and Providence Mayor David Cicilline said that he expects the new center will attract more and more visitors .
