Let’s look at two old but popular inventions we use in our daily life.
Band-Aids(创可贴)
The first Band-Aid was made by American Earle Dickson in 1921. The idea came to him by chance. Dickson’s wife Josephine often cut her fingers in the kitchen. At that time gauze(纱布) and adhesive tape(胶带)didn’t come together. People had to cut them to the right size. Dickson found they were always too big and soon fell off. So he put a piece of gauze on the center of a piece of tape. This is how he made the first Band-Aid.
Later Dickson’s new inventions became very popular all around the world.
Bubblegum(泡泡糖)
Bubblegum was invented by accident. In 1928, American gum company worker Walter E. Diemer played around with new chewing gum recipes. Chewing gum had already been invented more than half a century before then. But Diemer found that the gum he made was easy to blow. He blew a bubble and then saw the possibilities. He took some of his new gum to a shop and it sold out in a single afternoon. Since then, Dubble Bubble—the first brand of bubblegum—has made kids happy all around the world.

The coldest months of winter have arrived. But Woodchurch High School in the UK has had a winter coat rule. It has banned (禁止)students from wearing expensive coats after Christmas.
This is to stop “poverty-shaming(贫困羞辱)” among its students. Coat brands like Canada Goose and Moncler sell for £1,000(8, 674yuan), a cost that only the richest families are able to afford. Poor students feel left out when they see others wear these coats.
“These coats cause a lot of unfairness,” head teacher Rebekah Phillips told CNN. “They stigmatize(使……感到羞愧) students and parents who are less rich.”
Most parents are happy with the rule, saying that school shouldn't be a place where students’ economic(经济上的) background distracts(使分心) them from learning. Small changes like this have led low-income(低收入的) students to become busier in school.
But some people don't agree with it. They ask why children shouldn't be allowed to wear clothes that keep them warm in winter. “Each child should be allowed to choose what he or she wants to wear,” Jillian Roberts, a teacher at the University of Victoria in Canada said.
But Woodchurch isn’t the first school to take such steps. In May, a UK primary school didn’t allow to bring expensive pencil cases. The US state of New Mexico even passed a law saying that it is against the law to separate or humiliate (羞辱)a child who can't pay for his or her lunch at school.
1.What has Woodchurch High School stopped the students doing?
____________________________________________________________________________________
2.How do poor students feel when they see others wear expensive coats?
____________________________________________________________________________________
3.Are all parents happy with the rule in Woodchurch High School?
____________________________________________________________________________________
4.Which school didn’t allow their students to bring expensive pencil cases according to the passage?
____________________________________________________________________________________
5.What is the passage mainly about?
____________________________________________________________________________________
