20."You see someone just sitting there,looking like they're stupid,"explains teenager Manny Logan excitedly."You just run up to them,slap(掌击)them and run off.It's funny."
The 16-year-old Logan was describing"happy slapping".It's supposed to be fun but it's a new problem in Britain.Young people will attack passers-by while their friends record the whole thing on camera phones.It was first reported in south London six months ago.But,the practice has spread to other parts of the country and videos of attacks have become popular on the Internet.
The young people are called"hoodies"because they usually wear a sweatshirt with a hooded top.The top can be used to cover the head or face.
One study in England published earlier this year suggested that as many as one in four teenagers is an active offender.That includes both serious crimes and small acts like not paying for a bus ticket.
The fear of youth crime has left some parts of towns empty of ordinary people.
So,the British government declared war on public disorder last week.The Prime Minister has supported a decision by the country's biggest shopping centre in southeast of England to ban teenagers wearing hooded tops.The clothing helps tr oublemakers hide from the centre's cameras.
This week,the government is going further.It plans to force teenage offenders to wear orange jackets while they do public service.The idea is to sh ame them in front of others.
But some teenagers and experts have complained that,in their rush to stop the hoodies,politicians risk tarring all teenagers with the same brush.

25.According to the text,for what do the teenagers attack a person?A
A.Just for fun.B.Just for money.

18.After noticing that her eight grade students had problems focusing during math class,a North Carolina teacher decided to channel their energy in a different way-cycling.
It doesn't sound like the most common thing to do during math class,but Bethany Lambeth,a teacher from Wake County,says that ever since she fixed cycling machines under her students'desks,they are more focused,and,most importantly,they are no longer fidgeting (烦躁) all the time.
"Before,they were drumming on their desks,they were touching other people,they don't do that any more.Their feet are getting the movement out,"she said."There has been a huge increase in the quality of our student's work and a decrease in the amount of missing work."
Lambeth fixed the cycling machines at the end of last year,paying around $150 for each,which includes a warranty(授权).The cost was covered by donations and a money from the 4-C fund.No tax-payer money was used,but judging by the results observed by the Wake County teacher,this might be a solution authorities might want to look into.After learning about the success of Lambeth's project,school officials are particularly excited about the role cycling machines could play in Special Education classes.
The kids obviously love the new"toys".Sofia Fedele,one of Lambeth's students,said cycling helps her focus on her work during class."I usually tap my feet and so on just because it keeps me focused,"she said,adding that pedaling(踩踏板) is much better."It keeps me exercising and focused."

29.Why did Lambeth fix cycling machines?A
A.To direct students'energy.
B.To get on well with students.
C.To raise students'health consciousness.
D.To provide students a way to lose weight.
30.What will the school do next?C
A.To raise more money for Lambeth.
B.To observe the effect of cycling machines.
C.To fix more cycling machines in the classrooms.
D.To call on parents to fix cycling machines at home.
31.What does Sofia Fedele think of pedaling?D
A.Disappointing.B.Useless.C.Exciting.D.Beneficial.

Dylan's songs include a wide range of political,social and literary influences.They challenged existing pop music conventions and appealed to the growing counterculture.His recording career,spanning more than 50 years,has explored the traditions in American song,from folk,blues,and country to rock and roll,and to English,Scottish,and Irish folk music,even jazz and the Great American Songbook.He has toured steadily since the late 1980s on what has been called the Never Ending Tour.His accomplishments as a recording artist and performer have been central to his career,but songwriting is considered his greatest contribution.
As a musician,Dylan has sold more than 100 million records,making him one of the best-selling artists of all time.He has also received numerous awards including eleven Grammy Awards,a Golden Globe Award,and an Academy Award.The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2008 awarded him a special citation (引言)for his influence on popular music and American culture,marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power".In May 2012,Dylan received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama.In 2016,Dylan received the Nobel Prize in Literature"for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition".

12.Harper Lee,whose 1961 novel To Kill a Mockingbird on the racial troubles of the American deep south,has died at the age of 89.
Until last year,Lee had been something of a one-book literary legend.To kill a Mockingbird sold more than 40million copies around the world and earned her a Pulitzer prize,remaining a towering presence in American literature.Another novel,Go Set A Watchman,was controversially published in July 2015 as a"sequel"to Mockingbird,though it was later confirmed to be Mockingbird's first draft.
But from the moment Mockingbird was published to almost instant success,the author consistently avoided public attention.Lee had lived for several years in a nursing home near the house in which she had grown up in Monroeville,Alabama-the setting for Maycomb of her famous book.Her neighbor for 40years,Sue Sellers,said,"She was such a private person.All she wanted was privacy,but she didn't get much.There was always somebody following her around."
James Naughtie,BBC Books Editor,commented on the novels of Harper Lee:"I think she stands,particularly among American readers,as someone who shone a light into a very dark place.She was writing at a time when people were beginning to lift the lid on everything in the South which they'd chosen not to understand.That all changed in the 1960s.So I think her status for writing that book in its extraordinarily direct way will remain.

4.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean?C
A.Lee became successful with stories on American south.
B.People owe Lee's success to luck to some degree.
C.Mockingbird makes Lee a wonder in American literature.
D.Mockingbird was a bestseller by selling 40 million copies.
5.What does"Maycomb"in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?C
A.A nursing home
B.Lee's hometown
C.A fiction place   
D.A main character
6.Which best describes Americans'attitude towards racial troubles before the 1960s?B
A.Tolerant        
B.Unconcerned        
C.Sympathetic       
D.Dissatisfied
7.What can we learn from the text?C
A.Lee based all her stories on her life.
B.Lee had to avoid being followed by her fans.
C.Lee wrote Go Set A Watchman before Mockingbird.
D.Lee lived in the house where she grew up for the whole life.
