17.Thousands of teenagers will be able to transfer to a new wave of"studio schools"at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK.A dozen new-style schools are designed to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs--young people not in education,employment or training.
Under plans,schools will operate longer days and work outside standard academic terms.
Each pupil will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with businesses linked to the school and teenagers will be assigned a personal coach to act as an academic"line manager".
    The reforms are put forward due to the fears that too many teenagers are now finishing full-time education lacking the skills needed to succeed in the workplace.According to a recent report,more than two-thirds of employers believe school and college leavers lack important"employability skills"such as customer awareness,while 55 per cent say they are unable to manage their time or daily tasks.And the number of NEETs has hit a record high,with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or training place.
The Department for Education will announce the establishment of 12 studio schools--meeting the need of around 3,600 teenagers--in areas such as Liverpool,Stevenage,Stoke-on-Trent and Fulham,west London.Each one,opening in 2012,will be linked to a series of local employers.Under plans,pupils will be able to transfer out of ordinary schools to attend them between the age of 14 and 19.
The Government said all subjects would be taught"through projects,often designed with employers"--with disciplines such as science being linked directly to local engineering firms or hospitals.Schools will operate a longer day to give pupils a better understanding of the demands of the workplace.Along with their studies,pupils will carry out work placements for four hours a week,rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19.They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications linked directly to the needs of local employers.

A.often miss classes from school
B.refuse to take any kind of part-time jobs after school

A.interesting and lovely cartoons to make study easier
B.chances to get future jobs with expert job training
C.possibilities to make friends without going outside
D.lessons helping them to be admitted to universities
70.What makes the government decide to found studio schools?C
A.The determination to solve the problem of lacking workers.
B.The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect.
C.The worry about educated people lacking working skills.
D.The increasing number of teens who drop out early.

14.BEIJING-China has the world's largest population of citizens over age 65and in the coming decades their numbers are expected to quickly grow.Already,officials are struggling to cope with the rising numbers of elderly at a time when there is a shortage of nursing home beds and certified caregivers.
Feng Jie is a trained nurse who decided a year and half ago to leave her job at a state-run hospital and work with a private nursing company.
She says that unlike her job at the hospital,she now gets to spend more quality time with patients and as an added bonus her pay is better.Still,few have followed in her footsteps."It was a risk[to come to work here].All of my classmates still work in hospitals.I thought that I'd give it a try because this industry,this type of job is still an emerging field,"she said.
China's population is aging at one of the fastest rates in the world.By the middle of the century,more than 450million people will be over 60years of age.
China lacks both the facilities and the staff to adequately care for the elderly,says Du Peng,director of the Institute of Gerontology(老年学) at Renmin University-the only program of its kind in China."We have four million beds available,one caretaker for every three elderly.We should have more than a million caretakers,if in the future we will have 30million elderly then we need 10million caretakers,"she explained."But at the moment in China every year only 6,000gerontology professionals are certified."
Right now most of China's nursing homes are state owned,but through incentives(激励) to private enterprises,caregivers and stipends(生活津贴) for the elderly,the government is looking to shake up the market.
Li Xinyue says such incentives helped her quickly find a job at a private nursing home after graduating."When I was still in school I thought about where I would work afterwards,and at the time the government was issuing some policies to assist private institutions…there were many privately run institutions available,so there were more to choose from,"Li Xinyue stated.
In addition to cutting red tape to allow more foreign and private investment in elderly care,the government is testing ways to encourage caregivers to seek more training and keep certified nurses in the field.
"It is a bit like the reform of China's economic system thirty years ago,when it was mostly state owned enterprises and there was a break with that and a promotion of economic development.Now we are seeing a similar thing with the break down of the bottleneck,"said Peng.
As more elderly Chinese turn to nursing homes for care,authorities hope investors see profit in the country's demographic challenges,and add to the 400,000nursing homes that now are mostly state run.

A.China has the world's largest population of citizens over age 65.
B.In the coming decades the number of citizens over age 65is expected to quickly grow.
C.Officials are struggling to cope with the rising numbers of elderly in China.
D.There is a shortage of nursing home beds and certified caregivers in China.
56.Why did FengJie leave her job at a state-run hospital and work with a private nursing company?D
A.Because she was asked to work there by the institution.
B.Because she was not satisfied with the hospital she was working in.
C.Because she wanted to get a better pay.
D.Because it is a new industry and she wanted to have a try.

18.Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low that you can see their underwear?What do you think of that?Fashionable?Some of today's teenagers are big fans of such a look.But recently this trend has been at the centre of an argument in Italian middle schools.
The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and parts of the body.His request came after a class trip,when he saw one boy's baggy trousers slide to his feet.He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for schoo1.
But in Italy,a nation that takes fashion very seriously,the suggestion caused a debate among parents,teachers and students.The issue is whether the head teacher's request will limit students'freedom-or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.
A parents'group praised the proposal in favour of good taste,while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.
"We do not want to kick fashion out,"the headmaster explained."But extremes of fashion like this are not right in schoo1."Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.
Most students have simply ignored the request.Ludovica Gaudio,aged 14,wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class.It was cold,so she wore a matching orange scarf.
Another 14-year-old said she should probably respect the request,simply for practical reasons."I don't really feel comfortable in those sort of jeans",said Sarah Lattanzi."In winter,when dressed like that,it's quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.
51.What led to the argument in Italian middle schools?B
A.Students'craze for fashions.
B.Clothes that are too exposing.
C.Students ignoring dress rules.
D.Students'underwear.
52.Which of the following supports the headmaster's request?D
A.Fashion should be taken seriously.
B.Fashion should not be followed in school.
C.Students should have their freedom in choosing what they wear.
D.Students should be encouraged to have good taste in clothes.
53.The purpose of this story is toC.
A.show Chinese students that wearing very fashionable clothes in school is under attack in other countries,too
B.show that dress rules are necessary even in a country like Italy
C.tell us about a debate which started in Italian middle schools over the way students get dressed in school
D.let us see that Italian students react differently to schools'requests.
