Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school. But American schools also have their rules. If the students break the rules, they will get punishment, too.

On the first day of a new term, 128 students of Morton High School were sent home for not wearing the wrong clothes. There are altogether 1,200 students in the school. Usually only 20 twenty students break the school dress rule every day. So the headmaster There sa May erik said it was the worst new term she had ever seen.

At Morton High School, students’ favorite clothing such as baggy(宽大的)trousers, low-necked shirts and tank tops(紧身短背心)are not allowed in classrooms. Some students think they have the right to choose what the clothes they want to wear, but the headmaster doesn’t think so. “I’d be supportive if half the school was sent home, because 99% will get the message that our school are for education.” “Freedom” does not mean “free of restrictions(约束)”. That is to say there is no total freedom in the world, no matter in the US or in China.

Every day, it is easy to see advertisements in English all around us. Look at your own bags and clothes, and the bags and clothes of your classmates. How many different advertisements can you see which use English words?

Often, bags and clothes show the name of company that made them. This is a popular form. A special picture or symbol called a logo is sometimes used. Logos appear on many different products. They are popular because when you see a logo, it is hard to forget that product or company.

In places of Asia, especially China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam, food is usually eaten with chopsticks.

Chopsticks are two long thin tapered(锥形的) pieces of wood. Bamboo is the most material, but they are also be made of all kinds wood, as well as plastic, animal bone, ivory(象牙质), metal, coral(珊瑚)and so on.

Sometime chopsticks are quite artistic. Chopsticks can be covered with artwork. They might be made of gold and have Chinese calligraphy(书法)on them. A child’s plastic set of chopsticks might have a carton character, such as Mickey Mouse. 

The Chinese have been using chopsticks for five thousand years. People probably cooked their food in large pots, using twigs(小树枝) to remove it. Overtime, as population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly. Small amount of food could be eaten without knives and so the twigs gradually turned into chopsticks. 

Some people think that the great scholar Confucius, who lived from about 551 to 479 B.C., affected the development of chopsticks. As a vegetarian, Confucius believed knives were too violent to use at the table.

Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia. In India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and central Asia, most people have traditionally eaten with their hands.

People usually talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.

The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually trend to be active. People think that red is the symbol of exciting sociable(善交际的) people. Those who like to be with others like red. The cool colors are green, blue and purple. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.

Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more quickly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggested that a warm color such as red and orange, is a good color for a living room or a restaurant. 3 People who are relaxed or eating don’t want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices of factories, because the people who work there want time to pass quickly. 

Scientists don’t know why people think some colors are warm and others are cool. 4 However, almost everyone agree that warm colors remind people of warm days and cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is low during winter, the sunlight appears quite blue. Because the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.
