4．As Labor Day gets close，many Americans are trying to find some final vacation time before kids head back to school．（36）G．With people still looking for that escape，it's important to know some tips to make your dollars go the extra mile when travelling．
Choose places that are in their off--season during kids'school breaks．Over the Christmas/New Year's break，for example，the prices for flights and hotels in the Caribbean and Hawaii are sky-high．（37）C．You can go to places that are in their low season but are warm and festive（欢乐的）．
For US trips，think about extended-stay hotels．Extended-stay hotels give you affordable suites with a lot of free facilities for the money．You get a door to the kids'room that you can close at bedtime．（38）E A refrigerator，microwave and washing machines，as well as free breakfast，Wi-Fi and sometimes even dinner and snacks are available，too．
For European city trips，rent an apartment．Hotel rooms in European cities can be expensive and tiny．They have no refrigerator or microwave，and neighbors can hear every sound．（39）B It also gives you more space and thicker walls．The kitchen can help you save some money in hotel breakfast charges，and the washing machine can help you save the time for washing．
（40）D Hunting for specific items--maybe they're seashells from each beach you stop at，maps from tourist information offices or door handle do-not-disturb-signs from hotels--gives kids a task and keeps them busy in a trip．Collecting souvenirs on a certain theme is a lot cheaper than buying them．

A．Look for things with your kids．
B．An apartment usually costs less．
C．So you can consider other places．
D．Collect things instead of buying things．
E．You also have more space to move around．
F．You can also choose extended-stay hotels if you like．

1．In many American schools the holiday celebrating Dr．Martin Luther King Jr．'s birthday is used as an opportunity to teach children about his life and legacy．But in too many of those same schools，Black children's extraordinary talents are still being wasted today．Nearly three-quarters of Black fourth and eighth grade public school students cannot read or compute at grade level．Black students made up only 18percent of students in public schools in 2009-2010but were 40percent of students who received one or more out-of-school suspensions （暂被停学）．A Black public school student is suspended every four seconds．Black students are more than twice as likely to drop out of school as White students．Each school day 763Black high school students drop out．
So I applaud the U．S．Departments of Education and Justice for their recent action to address harmful school discipline policies that push so many thousands of black children out of school each year and into the juvenile justice and adult prison pipeline．If the education system is to do its part in replacing it with a cradle to college，career and success pipeline，we must end the current practice where children in the greatest need are suspended from school mostly for nonviolent offenses．
These resources，officially known as"guidance，"will help schools and districts meet their legal responsibility to protect students from discrimination on the basis of race，color or national origin as required under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964．As we recognize the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964and so many other important hard-won victories in the Civil Rights Movement this year，we must remember those victories could be lost without meaningful enforcement of the laws advocates fought so hard to win half a century ago．
While the guidance does not prohibit schools or districts from using any particular nondiscriminatory policy，it does call into question some policies that have historically excluded Black students and are of questionable educational value including"zero tolerance"discipline policies which require mandatory consequences for certain infractions （违反），and policies that prevent students from returning to school after completion of a court sentence．
Information of the new guidance recommendations is available at this government website for almost every school and district in the country．Check your own school district now to see whether the discipline policy is focused on creating a positive school climate and preventing misbehavior，whether consequences are clear，appropriate and consistent，and whether there is a commitment to fairness in the application of discipline．
31．What does the first paragraph mainly talk about？B
A．Life and legacy of Dr．Martin Luther King Jr．
B．Unsatisfactory situation of Black students'education．
C．The percentage of Black students dropping out of school．
D．The holiday celebrating Dr．Martin Luther King Jr．'s birthday．
32．The guidance issued by the U．S．Departments of Education and Justice mayC．
A．punish Black children for dropping out of school
B．push thousands of Black children out of school each year
C．protect Black children from being suspended for nonviolent offenses
D．prevent Black children from coming back to school after a court sentence
33．According to the passage，the"zero tolerance"discipline policiesA．
A．have questionable consequences
B．are prohibited by the guidance
C．prevent Black children from being absent from school
D．were considered discriminatory when they were released
34．What is the author's attitude toward these"guidance"？C
A．negative
B．optimistic
C．approval
D．indifferent
35．Which of the following is the best title for the passage？D
A．Suggestions on the Civil Rights Act
B．Victories in the Civil Rights Movement
C．Criticism of the Education System
D．Steps Forward on School Discipline．

2．If Confucius（孔子）were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28birthday with a big cake，there would be a lot of candles．He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out．
While many people in China will remember Confucius on this special day，few people in the United States will give him a passing thought．It's nothing personal．Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes．
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius．In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China．
In the past two decades，the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities．More recently，the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80countries．These schools teach both Chinese language and culture．The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art，history and philosophy（哲学）．Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy．Students in the United States，at the same time，are racing to learn Chinese．So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States．Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers．
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well．
Today China attracts the West more than ever，and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West．
As for the old thinker，he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West，even if his birthday is．
28．The opening paragraph is mainly intended toB
A．provide some key facts about Confucius
B．attract the readers'interest in the subject
C．show great respect for the ancient thinker
D．prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
29．We can learn from Paragraph 4that American studentsA
A．have a great interest in studying Chinese
B．take an active part in Chinese competitions
C．try to get high scores in Chinese exams
D．fight for a chance to learn Chinese
30．What is the best title for the passege？D
A．Forgotten Wisdom in America
B．Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
C．Chinese Culture for Westerners
D．Old Thinker with a Big Future
31．The passage is likely to appear inC．
A．a biography
B．a history paper
C．a newspaper
D．a philosophy textbook．
