With the start of the new semester students around the country exchange their fun and fashionable clothes for boring school uniforms.

"The uniform makes us look like a bunch of clones, especially when we are doing morning exercises in the playground, "said Qing, a Senior 2 from a high school in Shanghai. "But we are not exactly the same from the top to the bottom. The boys wear different sport shoes and girls have different decorations ( 装饰品 )in their hair. These are the areas where you can express yourself" said Qing.

Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school, especially shoes, according to Qing.

"Nike and Adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must for many of my friends ,are becoming out-of-date,” added. He explained, "Since Liu Xiang ran so fast in Athens, running shoes are becoming popular in this autumn."

"Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with random English words printed on them, "said Qing. "The accuracy ( 准确性 )of the written message isn't important. Often, the words are misspelt . Sometimes they do not even make sense “ Qing said with a smile.

Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colours of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion. Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls. Other fashionable items are the colourful drink contains which are now popular among girls this semester.

As in China, the new semester in the US also brings new fashion trends: shirts printed with Chinese words, necklaces with Hebrew ( 希伯莱 )or Hindi ( 印度的 )characters, and Brazilian jewelry, are all common in schools in Florida, according to Carmen Domingues, a high school student.

       A．All of the clothes are the same.          B．All of the exercises are the same.

       C．All of the clothes are different.          D．All of the exercises are different.

How do the students express themselves in school?

       A．The girls wear different sport shoes.     

       B．All the students wear school uniforms.

      C．The girls have different decorations in their hair.

       D．The boys drink water from colourful drinks containers.

Why are Nike and Adidas basketball shoes becoming out-of-date?

              A．Because the shoes are not eye-catching.

       B．Because running shoes become more popular.

       C．Because the shoes have been popular for a long time.

       D．Because they have changed their opinions for Liu Xiang.

Which of the following is NOT the new fashion trends in the US?

       B．Baseball caps and American-style T-shirts.

       C．Shirts printed with Chinese words.

       D．Brazilian jewelry.

Scientists are uncovering the secrets of two port cities lost under the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, a researcher said yesterday.

Herakleion and Menouthis were rich and proud cities until something reduced them to rubble (碎石) and buried them in the mud beneath 30 feet of sea water, French underwater explorer Franck Goddio said at the American Geophysical Union conference.

“This is a mystery that is ongoing,” said Goddio, a founder of the European Institute of Marine Archeology, a Paris-based underwater research organization backed by the wealthy Hilti Foundation of Liechtenstein(列支敦士登基金会).

The destruction of the twin port cities has haunted Goddio ever since he happened upon the site about 15 miles from Alexandria while exploring sunken ships from Napoleon’s fleet.

Goddio and his group of expert divers, marine archeologists(海洋考古学家) and others, are using high powered vacuums, satellite navigation systems and sophisticated sonar(声纳) to excavate(挖掘) the sunken cities from underneath a carpet of silt about one meter (three feet) high.

Walls of shops, remains of streets and gold artifacts have been found and recovered.

Some experts believe that the port cities were destroyed by a series of massive earthquakes, much like the quakes scientists believe felled Troy(特洛伊城), Jericho and other ancient cities. The uniform direction of the collapsed columns and walls suggest an earthquake, Goddio said, but no fault lines have been found nearby.

Other researchers believe a massive wave, caused by either an offshore earthquake or a distant underwater landslide, could explain the catastrophe. Still others think rising seas and a shift in the Nile River outlet doomed the cities.

“The argument, as you can see, continues,” Goddio said.

D. the American Geophysical Union conference was once held in one of the two cities

(1—3 DBD)

Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package. 

“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily, “Tony said.” You don’t have any luggage, right?”

“Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”

“That’s right, one carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”

“Thanks.”

Is Brian a criminal（犯罪）? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick. 

Every year about 80, 000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone, But if you have very little money, can be flexible（灵活的）about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!

Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?

A. Because they were the uniform for air couriers,  

B. Because that made him easier to be recognized. 

C. Because his backpack had no room for his clothes. 

D. because he did not have any luggage with him. 

An air courier is a person who        

A. manages a business company in foreign countries

B. organizes international flights for tourists

C. travels around the world with cheap tickets

D. delivers papers and packages to foreign countries

Businesses choose the air-courier service because      

A. it costs less     B. it is flexible     C. it saves time     D. it grows fast

One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air courier is that he

A. cannot decide when and where to travel

B. cannot take any luggage with him

C. has to wear two pairs of jeans

D. saves little money from the travel

The author of the text mainly

T-shirts out; uniforms in
School uniforms（制服） are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That’s no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers(障碍); school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol (象征) of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity.” First, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality (个性). They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.
【小题1】From the passage we learn that uniforms in general       .

A．prevent the wearers from being laughed at
B．help the wearers keep their duties in mind
C．are seen as a symbol of power
D．help to create social barriers
【小题2】Some people are against school uniforms because       .
A．they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms
B．they believe that uniforms will make students less creative
C．they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriers
D．they think that school uniforms are too popular
【小题3】The author would probably agree that       .
A．it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not
B．students’ individuality may not come from school education
C．students’ creativity is related to the clothes they choose
D．school uniforms help to create equality among students
【小题4】School uniforms are becoming more and more popular and important because _____
A．they can stop the powerful social sorting and labeling.
B．if all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing.
C．uniforms can remind the wearers of their purposes and duties
D．school uniforms will affect their children’s creativity.
