School uniforms are traditional in Britain. Pupils at about 90 percent of British secondary schools wear uniforms. When every pupil in the school wears the uniform, nobody has to worry about fashion and they feel that they belong to a group. Some people believe that a school uniform can help students pay attention to schoolwork. But some schools in Britain and other countries are starting to drop the traditional uniforms.

An Australian school has decided to drop its traditional school uniform, hoping new sportswear will encourage students to take part in more activities. School headmaster Elisabeth Lenders said the uniform change had been in the works for several years. “We decided that in 2018-2019,” she said. “The importance is clear: to make young people live happy, healthy lives.”

Ms. Lenders said World Health Organization research reported 90 percent of young Australians and New Zealanders were not getting the minimum （最小的） daily levels of activity they needed in order to lead a healthy life.

As well as the new uniform, she said the school would change timetables to make sure there would be chances for students to take part in physical activity every day.

Ms. Lenders said in the past, a uniform was about all looking the same but in the 21st century it was important for students to be able to choose clothes that they liked.

And this Australian school had made an online survey about the uniform change and had received great support from parents and students. Tara, mother of Ava in Year 7, said it was a great move from the school. “These are the challenges of our time, and we want young people to think about them,” she said. “It is bigger than just throwing out the old uniform. It’s about what the role of education is about. And for me, it’s helping young people to live a happy, healthy and productive life.”

1 ． What does the underline word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A ． physical activity B ． uniform change C ． happy life D ． students’ health

2 ． According to the passage, the uniform change in this Australian school ________.

A ． helps students to live a healthy life B ． gives students a sense of belonging

C ． teaches students to dress fashionably D ． helps students to pay attention to study

3 ． What can we know from the last paragraph?

A ． Students there may wear different kinds of clothes.

B ． It’s not clear whether the change is good for students or not.

C ． Parents have different opinions towards the change of uniform.

D ． The change receives strong support from students and parents.

4 ． Where is the text probably from?

A ． A novel. B ． A guidebook. C ． A newspaper. D ． A book review.

A recent study from a team of South Korean researchers suggests that eating alone often may lead to poor eating habits and poor food choices .Specifically ,the study found that men who ate alone more than twice a week had a greater risk of developing high blood pressure ,high cholesterol and diabetes .

For children ,eating with their families is not only about preventing bad outcomes(结果)—it is also about developing good ones .

In 2014, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD) looked at data from nearly three-quarters of the world’s countries .Among its findings was the fact that students who shared a main meal with their families were less likely to skip school .Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to abuse drugs and alcohol(吸毒酗酒).

In the report ,titled “The Importance of Family Dinners (VIII) ”, researchers say that “teens who have frequent family dinners are more likely to say their parents know a lot about what’s going on in their lives ”. They also claim that when teens say they feel closer to their parents ,they are less likely to use drugs and alcohol .

Another study from the University of Montreal found that children who ate with their families experience long –term physical and mental health benefits(好处) .These children were physically in better shape and drank fewer sugary soft drinks .These children also seemed to have better social skills and they were less aggressive(好斗的)。

Professor Linda Pagani says that mealtimes shared with parents “likely provide young children with first-hand social interactions ,discussions of social issues(事件) and day-to-day concerns ” .She adds that they may likely help the child have better communication skills with others .

30. What can be the best title for the text ?

A. Benefits of eating together            B. Advantages of eating alone

As is known to all, Confucius （孔子） was one of the greatest Chinese teachers in history. Here is more information about him.

He was born over 2,000 years ago and lived in the Kingdom of Lu （鲁国） , part of today’s Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period （春秋时期） . His childhood was sad. His father died when he was only three years old and he had to work to help his mother. But young Confucius didn’t give up （放弃） studying.

He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry （诗歌） and sports. Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from rich families could go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime （一生） . Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that everyone has something worthy （值得） to learn and to teach.

Also, he is a famous thinker with his wise thoughts about the world and the society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners （礼仪） .

It is easy for many people to catch a cold in the springtime or fall. It makes us wonder if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a cure for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are actually different cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a cure for each one.

When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and causes a block in it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but your body is actually eating the virus. Your temperature goes up and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells（细胞). You may feel very uncomfortable, but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.

Different people do different things to deal with colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might have chicken soup to help them get over the cold. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicine to stop different symptoms(症状)of colds.

There is one interesting thing to note—some scientists say taking medicine when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own. There is a joke, however, on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this:

It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but it takes only seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

Tea is an important part of Chinese tradition. Tea has very close relationship to Chinese culture.

It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by King Shen Nong. People say that he lived 5,000 years ago.One summer day, while he was visiting a faraway part of his country, he felt very thirsty and began to boil water.Some dried leaves from a near plant fell into the water. The king drank some, and found it could make him feel lesstired. Also as a scientist, Shen Nong was interested in the new drink. And so, tea was created in 2737 BC.

Drinking tea has many advantages. It makes people feel energetic, clears heat inside their bodies and helps them lose weight. As you add a cup of tea to your daily life, please check the following helpful advice.

·Drink it hot. It is expected to drink it hot to stop it from oxidizing（氧化）quickly.

·Do not drink too much strong tea. It will probably be harmful to your stomach and make you feel sick if you make the tea too strong.

·The best time to drink tea is between meals. It may not make you have a strong wish to eat when your stomach is full.

·Do not drink with medicine. It may completely change the medical result. You can drink tea two hours after you take medicine.

·Green tea is the best choice for office workers. Why? Because green tea helps stop the bad result of the computer.
