To Design Perfect School Uniforms

Believe it or not, there are good reasons for wearing a school uniform. It makes you   1__  proud of your school. It builds a common spirit of unity (整体) among students and   2them of the values and history of their school. But for most students, school uniforms are not something to be proud of   3.

“Why   4the school uniform just one day a week? Always wearing the same clothes makes me feel boring,” a senior student from a high school complained (抱怨). “I don’t like the big English letters of the name of our school on the back,” said a junior student “They could be   __5.” The main student complaints about school uniforms are: simple colors, boring designs and bad   6. And a teacher at a middle school in Guangzhou said that   7a teacher and a mother, she eagerly   8the quality of school uniforms will be improved soon.

What has caused all these problems? Chen Hong, a uniform designer in Shenzhen, pointed out that problems   9because the whole society doesn’t see the   10of the school uniform.

“Most designers are  11to stick to the same old fashion,  12there are no professionals (专业人员)   13work for students,” Chen said.

His company   14most of the awards in the first national competition for school uniforms last month in Nanning, Guangxi.

“Besides, high quality calls for a high price,” said Chen. “But in some schools, the annual (一年一度) expense for each student’s uniform is only 50 to 60 yuan. How can we produce high quality clothes with so   15money?”

Even with these problems, efforts have been made   16the situation, according to Zhai Shiliang,   17of the School Uniform Administration and Service Center in Beijing. A school clothes competition was held in April in Beijing. Thirty-seven uniforms,   18in schools next spring, were selected from 570. “We will offer the samples (样品) for schools to choose,” Zhai said.

“The perfect uniform should remind the students of the school’s honor and cause them to be proud of it  19they are,” Chen said. Zhai added, “During the 2009 Olympic Games, the whole world will see the new appearance of our   20century young generation with new school uniforms.”

Allow them to study in blocks of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle.   Ideal (理想的) study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.

Never allow your children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity.  _ 

You’ll also need to help your kids find the right place to study. After you’ve set up a good study time for little learners, set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.

     Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.

     This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.

Each year, road accidents kill a million people and injure millions more . The economic costs are greatest for developing countries . Earlier this year , the United Nations called for a campaign to improve road safety .
One way to avoid accidents is better driving . Another is better roads and bridges . Engineers in the Unites States have designed ten new concrete mixtures that they think could make bridges last longer .
Professor Paul Tikalsky leads the experiments by a team at Pennsylvania State University . He says bridges made of concrete now last about twenty-five to thirty-five years . But he says the new mixtures might extend that to seventy –five or even one-hundred years .
Concrete is made of stone , sand , water and cement(水泥). The materials in the cement hold the concrete together . Ancient Romans built with concrete . Yet strengthened concrete bridges did not appear until the late 1800s . People keep looking for new ways to improve concrete . Professor Tikalsky says it is one of the most complex of all chemical systems .
The new mixtures designed by his team contain industrial waste products . He says these make the concrete better able to resist damage from water and salt over time . One of the products is fly ash . This is released into the air as pollution when coal is burned .
Professor Tikalsky says particles (颗粒)of fly ash are almost exactly the same size and chemical structure as Portland cement . This is the most costly material in concrete . So using fly ash to replace some of it would save money .
The federal government is paying for part of the research . Engineers anywhere can use the technology . Professor Tikalsky says some of the ideas have already been put to use in China , the Philippines and other countries .
【小题1】Why did the United Nations launch the campaign ?

A.Because the United Nations wanted to reduce road accidents and economic costs
B.Because two million people were killed in the accidents .
C.Because engineers wanted to design ten new concrete mixtures .
D.Because the United Nations made bridges of the new mixtures which could last for about 20 to 35
years .
【小题2】What does the underlined word “ this ” in the sixth paragraph refer to ?
A.Fly ashB.Portland cementC.SandD.Chemical

The engineer Camilla Olivetti was 40 years old when he started the company in 1908. At his factory in Ivrea, he designed and produced the first Italian typewriter. Today the company’s head office is still in Ivrea, near Turin, but the company is much larger than it was in those days and there are offices all around the world,

By 1930 there was a staff of 700 and the company turned out 13.000 machines a year. Some went to customers in Italy, but Olivetti exported more typewriters to other countries.

Camillo’s son, Adriano, started working for the company in 1924 and later he became the boss. He introduced a standard speed for the production line and he employed technology and design specialist. The company developed new and better typewriters and then calculators(计算器). In 1959 it produced the ELEA computer system. This was the first mainframe(主机) computer designed and made in Italy.

After Adriano died in 1960, the company had a period of financial problem. Other companies, especially the Japanese, made faster progress in electronic technology than the Italian company.

In 1978, Carlo de Benedetti became the new boss. Olivetti increased its marketing and service networks and made agreements with other companies to design and produce more advanced office equipment. Soon it became one of the world’s leading companies in information technology and communications. There are now five independent companies in the Olivetti group—one for personal computers, one for other office equipment, one for systems and service, and two for telecommunications.

A.It produced the best typewriter in the world.

B.It designed the world’s first mainframe computer.

C.It exported more typewriters than other companies.

D.It has five independent companies with its head office in Ivrea.

A chocolate printer that allows sweet lovers to create 3D desserts by themselves is to go on sale at a cost of 2,500 pounds.

The machine squirts (喷射) out chocolate and, via computer instructions, allows the user to build any shape they like out of the food. But makers Choc Edge have missed the Easter rush. Even so, they hope the printer will be snapped up by retailers (零售商) immediately they come to the market. Britain’s biggest chocolatiers Thornton’s have already said they are interested. Because of the high cost, however, few individuals are likely to buy one. But the devicecould one day allow people to design their own 3D objects after submitting their designs on a website. Dr Hao, founder of Choc Edge came up with a prototype (原型) last year and has only just perfected it so that it can now go on sale. “We’ve improved and simplified the machine, so now it is really easy to use,” he told the BBC. “You just need to melt some chocolate, fill a syringe (注射器) that is stored in the printer, and get creative printing of your chocolate.”     

3D printing is a technology where a three dimensional object is created by building up successive layers of material. The technology is already used in industry to produce plastic and metal products, but this is the first time the principles have been applied to chocolate. The research has presented many challenges. Chocolate is not an easy material to work with because it requires accurate heating and cooling cycles. Dr Hao said, “What makes this technology special is that users will be able to design and make their own products. From reproducing the shape of a child’s favourite toy to a friend’s face, the possibilities are endless. It could be developed to help consumers design many products from different materials, but we’ve started with chocolate as it is easily available, low cost and harmless.” “There is also no wastage as any spoilage (损坏物) can be eaten.” Dr Hao added, “Eventually we may see many mass-produced products replaced by unique designs created by the customer.”[来源:]

EPSRC chief executive Professor Dave Delpy said, “This is a good example of how creative research can be applied to create new manufacturing and retail ideas. By combining developments in engineering with the commercial potential of the digital economy,We can see the new market prospect (前景)—creating new jobs and, in this case, the chocolate printer is called sweet business opportunities.”

1.Which is the advantage of the chocolate printer?

A.It is easilyavailable, low cost and harmless.

B.It mainly produces children’s favourite toys.

C.The user can build the shape they like via computer instructions.

D.The designs made by it are the same as many mass-produced products.

2.What can we conclude from the passage?

A.The printer sold well during last Easter.

B.The technology of 3D printing promises a good future.

C.The printer was perfected and went on sale many years ago.

D.It’s the first time that the technology has been used in industry.

3.Dave Delpy’s attitude towards the chocolate printer is __________.

A.doubtful

B.supportive

C.negative

D.critical

4.We can conclude that this passage is a __________.

A.science fiction

B.book review

C.news report

D.travel guide
