Now, more and more mothers wear the same clothes as their daughters, so people often mistake them for each other. According to a new study, mothers today look to their daughters for fashion(时尚)and beauty ideas. The study questioned 343 mothers and daughters, with an average age of 44 for mums and 16 for daughters.

A report from Temple University, Philadelphia also says that many children act older than their years. But they don't listen to the opinion from their parents in wearing.

Some mothers buy the same clothes as their daughters do. They like the same colour and style as their daughters. They do so because they want to keep as young as their daughters. And now many more mothers compare(与…比较)beauty with their daughters. So a strange thing happens: the woman may look like a teenager from behind, but she is already middle-aged from the front.

The report shows that if a mum is young at heart and fashion, she is more likely to view (把…视为)her daughter as a style expert and copy her. So what are the mothers going to wear in the future? This may depend on their daughters.

1.Why do people mistake mothers and their daughters?

A.Because they have the same hobbies. B.Because they often wear the same clothes.

C.Because they often walk together.· D.Because they often have the same hairstyle.

2.How many people were questioned in the study?

A.16. B.44. C.60 D.343.

3.What do many children like to wear in their daily life?

A.Clothes that make them look older. B.Clothes that are tight.

C.Clothes that are expensive. D.Clothes that are loose.

4.What do mothers like to compare with their daughters?

A.Clothes. B.Lifestyle. C.Jobs. D.Beauty.

5.What is the main idea of this passage?

Here are the stories about two famous explorers(探险家).

Zheng He

Zheng He was a famous Chinese explorer. In 1405. he set off from China on the first of seven great voyages(航行).

From 1405 to 1433. Zheng He went on seven trips and visited South-East Asia, the Middle East and even the east coast of Africa. These voyages allowed China to trade valuable goods like gold, silver and silk. At the end of each voyage, Zheng He returned with many things that were seen in China for the first time. Besides developing trade, the voyages also encouraged the exchange of cultures and technologies.

Zheng He died in 1433 during his last voyage. However, his voyages were such a huge achievement that people still remember him.

Marco Polo

Marco Polo grew up in the city of Venice, in present-day Italy. In 121, when he was 17 years old, he set off on a journey to Asia with his father and uncle and did not return home until 24 years later.

When Polo finally returned to Venice, there was a war and he was captured. While he was in prison, he told the stories of his travels to another man there. This man wrote the stories down in a book called The Travels of Marco Polo.

The stories gave many Europeans their first look at the life and culture of the people in Asia. Polo told of many amazing things that were unknown to Europe, such as paper money.
