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 wearing the wrong clothes. There are altogether 1, 200 students in the school. Usually only 20 students break the school dress rule every day. So the headmaster Theresa Mayerik 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 tanktops(坎肩) are not allowed in classrooms. Some students think they have the right to choose what to wear. But the headmaster doesn’t think so. "I'd be supportive if half the school were sent home, because 99% will get the message that our school is 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.

1.Many Chinese students think that　　　　　　　　　　　　 .

A.American students are very free at school

B.American students are not so clever as them

C.American students don't love their school at all

D.there is no freedom in American schools

2.128 students of Morton High School were sent home for　　　　　　　　　　　　 .

A.not finishing their homework B.being late for school

C.not wearing the right clothes D.not listening to the teachers in class

3.What does the underlined word"supportive "mean in Chinese?

A.高兴的 B.支持的

C.害怕的 D.反对的

4.What's the writer's attitude to the school dress rule?

A.Agree B.Disagree

C.Not sure D.Unclear

Do you jump out of bed early, wide awake and ready to start your day？If so, you would be called an “early bird”. Perhaps, you hate the sound of your alarm clock each morning and have little energy until afternoon. If so, you're probably a “night owl”．

Most people can be divided into such two groups, but what makes us this way？And is one better than the other？There are different opinions.

Usually, early risers have been praised as hard-working while those who prefer to get up late are considered lazy. Most people believe the early bird catches the worm.

Yet some scientists now believe “night owls” can really focus(集中) longer and produce more than early risers.

Research has found that the early bird does not always get the worm. In a Belgian study, both “morning people” and “evening people” were watched during their normal asleep and awake routines(常规)．After 10 hours of being awake, the “evening people” became more alert(思维敏捷的). However, the “morning people” became sleepy and less focused. Researchers believe the reason for this difference is that night owls receive a last-minute increase from their brains. This added energy allows them to stay alert for longer periods of time.

Environment, lifestyle, activities and childhood routines all may have an effect on sleeping habits, yet genetics(遗传学)may play the biggest role.

It is possible to change your sleeping habits through regular bedtimes, early exercise and by avoiding midnight snacks. But if you're happy rising early or staying up late, you're probably doing what works best for your own personal body clock.

1.The author introduces the subject by ________.

A.telling an interesting story

B.giving different opinions

C.showing research results

D.asking a question

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 really mean?

A.Those who get up early achieve their goals.

B.Early to bed, early to rise is good for health.

C.“Night owls” can focus longer than “early birds”.

D.“Early birds” are as hard-working as “night owls”.

3.What did the researchers find in a Belgian study?

A.Late risers become sleepier than early risers.

B.Early risers become as focused as later risers.

C.Late risers can think quickly after being awaken for 10 hours.

D.Early risers can think clearly after being awake for 10 hours.

4.What opinion does the author finally agree to?

A.People should get up early.

B.Whatever time suits you, it’s OK.

C.Staying up late is good for health.

D.It’s impossible to change one’s sleeping habit.

I had worried myself sick over Simon's mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students' work. In Simon's case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn't read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.

So when Simon's mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. "I came to thank you," she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend's house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned, for about half an hour，wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a life changing difference to that boy without even knowing it？What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before，when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quietly，and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simon's the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince, and he can't hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more，and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I'm thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

1.We can infer that when Simon’s mother entered the room, the writer felt _______.

A.nervous B.satisfied C.happy D.surprised

2.Why did Simon's mother come to visit the writer?

A.Because she worried about her son's poor work.

B.Because Simon asked her to do so.

C.Because she wanted to show her gratitude to the writer.

D.Because she wanted to know her son's performance in the school.

3.The following words can be used to describe Simon before he met the writer EXCEPT _____.

A.unconfident B.lonely C.clever D.outgoing

4.The purpose of the passage is to ________.

A.share a valuable lesson with readers

D.tell the story of Simon
