     Do you have any strong opinion on co-educational or single-sex schools?
    A supporter of co-educational schools would probably say that schools should be like the societies they
belong to. In Hong Kong, men and women mix socially on a day-to-day basis. In many fields men are even
likely to have female bosses. It is, therefore, desirable that boys and girls grow up together,go to school
together, and prepare themselves for a society that does not value sexual separation.
     Some would go on to argue further that growing up with members of the opposite sex is important for
personal development. Regular contact (接触) can remove the strange ideas about the opposite-sex and lead
to more natural relationships. Single-sex conditions are seen as leading to more extreme opinions, and possibly
even as encouraging homosexuality (同性恋), though there is no proof that this is the case.
     Those who are against coeducation often also fix their attention on the sexual side. Some parents fear that
close contact with members of the opposite sex is dangerous for teenagers. They want their children to be
attentive to their studies. Such parents feel uncomfortable with modern ways and the free mixing of the sexes.
     A stronger argument comes from research into school results. Girls grow up earlier than boys, tend to be
more orderly and are likely to be better at languages. In a mixed class,boys who might do well in a single-sex
class become discouraged and take on the rule of troublemaker. Certainly in the UK this situation has greatly
alarmed (惊动) the government for it to be encouraging co-educational schools to have some single-sex
classes.　In the UK the best schools are all single-sex, strongly suggesting that co-education is not the best
answer. This may, however, not be as simple as it looks.It may simply be that the famous old schools that
attract the best students happen to be single-sex,　rather than that being single-sex makes them better schools.

1. In the third paragraph, by saying "though there is no proof that this is the case", the writer
means that _____.

A. students in single-sex schools will certainly become homosexual
B. students in co-educational schools cannot have extreme opinions
C. students in co-educational schools are likely to be homosexual
D. single-sex school conditions may or may not have effects on the students.

2. All the following arguments can be found in the passage EXCEPT that _____.

A. co-education can produce a society-like situation
B. co-educational schools may lead to love affairs between boys and girls
C. co-education will help develop a better understanding about the opposite sex
D. co-education can make boys perform well in mixed classes

3. Alarmed by the situation,the UK government encourages _____.

A. co-education
B. single-sex education
C. single-sex classes in co-educational schools
D. co-educational classes in single-sex schools

4. At the end of the passage the writer suggests that _____.

A. single-sex schools are the best schools in the UK
B. being single-sex does not necessarily make a school better
C. co-educational schools are better for both sexes in personal development
D. because boys cannot compete with girls in study,they go to single-sex schools

Do you have a sore throat, a running nose and a headache? Do you keep coughing and sneezing? If you do, the chances are that you have a cold or perhaps flu---but which one? Although both colds and flu are caused by viruses, they are very different illnesses.

Colds, which usually last about a week, affect the nose most. They commonly cause a running nose and sneezing. Sometimes, they cause a headache, a cough and slightly aching muscles.

Flu is a much more serious illness and is caused by different groups of viruses. People with flu usually get all the symptoms(症状) described above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much worse aching. Fever is one of the characteristic symptoms of the flu for all ages. The symptoms also last much longer. Sometimes they don’t disappear for at least two weeks.

Flu can be a deadly disease. The elderly(年长的), who are weaker and less healthy than most younger people, can die from flu. This is one reason why old people are advised to have a flu injection(预防针) before the start of winter when flu is most common. This injection is inexpensive and definitely（明显地）worth it.

If you have a cold or flu, you must always deal with used tissues(手巾纸) carefully. Don’t leave dirty tissues on your desk or on the floor. Someone else has to pick these up and viruses could be passed on. And finally, remember to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze! You don’t want to see the small drops of liquids blown(喷) out of your nose and mouth when you sneeze, do you? Disgusting(令人作呕), eh? Now you can understand why it’s a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!

In paragraph 4, we learn that ________.

A. flu injection can cause death B. most old people die from flu

C. flu can kill old people easily D. flu is most common in summer

Dealing with used tissues properly(正确地) is important because ________.

A. it helps keep your classroom tidy B. it prevents the spread of colds and flu

C. people hate picking up dirty tissues D. picking up lots of tissues is hard work

A. Both colds and flu last the same time.

B. Both colds and flu can be prevented by injection.

C. Both colds and flu are caused by the same viruses.

D. Both colds and flu have an aching symptom.
