| While in most present schools it is controversial (有争议的) whether students should wear uniforms. Most of elementary schools have taken uniform policy. Uniforms serve students benefits in several ways. First of all, uniforms act as social equalizers (均衡器). Children often feel less social stress when everyone in the school is dressed the same way. Students who can not be fashionable due to poverty are made to feel more comfortable among their classmates. Moreover, wearing uniforms influences students' team spirit. Students are made to feel as if they are a part of a team by wearing uniforms. In addition, school uniforms would help students in other ways. Students would not be late for school as often because of the indecision (拿不定主意) about what to wear in the morning. However, when the topic comes to high school situation, further details should be carefully examined. The uniform is not the right answer to different problems that the high school education is facing. Having grown up already, most students no longer feel that uniforms help them become a part of the school. Furthermore, uniforms may not save parents as much money as many people think. Many times students don't wear their school uniforms once they are out of school. Sneakers, jackets, boots and casual clothing will still be needed. What may first appear to be economical may not be accurate (正确的) in reality. It seems that the answer to the school uniform debate is not a simple "yes" or"no". There is no clear consensus (共识) as to the benefits of school uniforms. | |||||||||

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。
When we walk through the city, we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. We don't stop, we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead, and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.
We make use of stereotypes (刻板的模式) as convenient ways to make quick judgements about situations and people around us. They may not always be accurate (正确的), and they can often be dangerously wrong, but they are used regularly.
The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience. By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit our communication. We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.
In the city, styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self
presentation. Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can he easily recognized. It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes, and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly, and lets others tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.
In England, where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions (区分), clothes, hairstyles, people's pronunciation and the manner of speaking are all clues to our social group. Class distinctions tend to be relatively fixed, although in the city where greater variety is permitted, they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.
1.People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because ________.
[ ]
A.the environment is already familiar to them
B.everyone else is expressionless
C.they do not wish to talk to other people

2.According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they ________.
[ ]
A.can rarely be relied on

3.From the passage we may conclude that ________.
[ ]
A.dressing can send messages about individuals
B.people are becoming more interested in fashion
C.stereotypes can help to understand people fully
D.stereotypes can do more harm than good to people
4.It would appear that in England, a person's class ________.
[ ]
A.plays less of a role than it did in the past
B.is mainly determined by his pronunciation

Not all past predictions have been proved wrong. A few of them have been surprisingly accurate (正确无误). Some great thinkers predicted the arrival of the credit card, the fax machine and even the internet years before they happened. But for each prediction that has come true, some others have missed by a mile. Many of these predictions didn’t consider how people would want to use the technology or if people really needed it in their lives or not. Let’s look at some predictions from the not-too-distant past.
Robot Helpers
Where’s the robot in my kitchen? Nowhere, of course. And he’s probably not coming anytime soon. Robots do exist today, but mostly in factories and other working environments.
Back in the 1950s, however, people said that by now personal robots would be in most people’s homes.
So why hasn’t happened? Maybe because robots are still too expensive and clumsy(笨拙的). And probably the idea of robots cooking our dinners and washing our clothes is just too strange. At home we seem to be doing fine without them.
Telephones of tomorrow?
In 1964 an American company introduced the video telephone. They said by the year 2000 most people would have a video phone in their homes. But of course the idea hasn’t caught on yet.
Why? The technology worked fine, but it overlooked (忽略) something obvious: people desire for privacy. Would you want to have a video phone conversation with someone after you just stepped out of the shower?
Probably not — it could be uncomfortable! Just because technology doesn’t always mean people will want to use it.
And finally, how about that crazy prediction of the flying car? It’s not so crazy any more! But a flying car remains one of the most wonderful technology ideas to catch our imagination. Keep watching the news or perhaps the sky outside your window to see what the future will bring.
1. The passage mainly deals with______.
A. predictions that can catch our imagination
B. predictions that haven’t come true
C. new technology can benefit our life
D. predictions that have come true
2. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Technology doesn’t always mean people will want to use it.
B. Predictions don’t need to consider people’s practical use of the technology.
C. Not all the high-tech things people thought we’d be using by now are widely used.
D. High-tech things are not always convenient to people’s life.
3. Robot Helpers haven’t been used in most people’s homes because ______.
A. using the kind of robots at home is simply a waste of time and money
B. the kind of robots hasn’t been developed yet
C. people find it difficult to control the kind of robots
D. the kind of robots won’t bring people practical use
4. How does the writer find the flying car?
A. It is too difficult to imagine. B. It is too crazy an idea to realize.
C. It is likely to appear in the future. D. It has been the focus of the news.
