New rules and behavior standards for middle school students came out in March. Middle schools are going to use a new way to decide who are the top students. The best students won't only have high marks (分数). They will also be kids who don't dye their hair, smoke or drink. The followings are some of the new rules.
Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work in an exam? Don't do it again! That's not what an honest (诚实的) student should do. If you have played computer games for twohours in your room, don't tell your parents you have done homework.
Do more at school. Good students are kind to other people and love animals. April is Birdloving Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes more fun for everyone.
Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you'll discover Earth Ⅱ some day. Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don't let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should take care of yourself and let your parents know.
Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren't for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework. Can't you find any good web sites for children? Here are some: http://kids.eastday.com; http://www chinakids.net.com.

The Indians invented and developed the system of numbers from 1 to 9 and 0. We can use the ten numbers to make any number from the biggest to the smallest.
However, the ancient Romans invented a different system (系统) of numbers. They used symbols (符号) and replaced them. 1 is “Ⅰ” and 2 is “Ⅱ”. For larger numbers, they invented new symbols—5 is “Ⅴ”, 10 is “Ⅹ”, and so on. But they didn’t have a symbol for zero.
Here’s a table of the Roman numbers.
1 | 5 | 10 | 50 | 100 | 500 | 1,000 |
Ⅰ | Ⅴ | Ⅹ | L | C | D | M |
The Romans combined their symbols. In this way, “Ⅶ” means “5+1+1”, or 7. However, they found that “ⅡⅡ” (for 4) and “ⅤⅡⅡ” (for 9) were too confusing, so they thought out another idea.
If the “Ⅰ” comes after the “Ⅴ”, then you add it (Ⅵ is 6); if the “Ⅰ” comes before the “Ⅴ”, then you subtract (减去) it (Ⅳ is 4). The rule is that you are allowed to add up to three (e.g. Ⅷ is 8), but only subtract one (e.g. XL is 40).
How to remember the symbols?
Ⅰis like a finger. In a whole hand, the thumb (拇指) and the little finger make a V. Ten fingers are both hands, so the two Vs make an X..
Here is a way to remember the other symbols (L, C, D, M):Little Cats Drink Milk.
( ) 51. How many numbers can we make according to the Indians’ system ?
A. three: 0, 9, 1 B. ten C. eleven D. lots of
( ) 52. Which number was not in the ancient Roman’s number system?
A. 1 B. 9 C. 0 D. 5
( ) 53. What does the underlined word “combined” probably mean in the passage?
A. 合并 B. 分离 C. 增加 D. 削减
( ) 54. What does MD mean according to the Romans’ rule of calculating?
A. 500 B. 1000 C. 1500 D. 2000
( ) 55 Which sentence is NOT true according to the passage?
A. “Little Cats Drink Milk” can help us to remember some of the numbers symbols.
B. The Indians invented the system of numbers from 1 to 9 and 0.
C. You are not allowed to make a number like “XXL”
D. The ancient Romans repeated symbols to make any number.
