    This is the Radio Doctor with another word of advice on how to keep yourself healthy and how to keep away from doctors. As everyone knows, prevention is the best cure (治疗). If you haven’t cold, stay away from the people who have. Keep your rooms aired. Keep yourself warm. And don’t get yourself too tired or too excited by pleasure.

    When it comes to the Internet, people talk about the password most. Actually, it’s been under fire for a long time. Research has shown that passwords are not a very good way to protect sensitive information.

    People would use some random characters, numbers and symbols. Furthermore, a unique password would be used for every site or application the user uses. Unfortunately, the longer and more complex passwords become, the more people are likely to forger them. Therefore, they use the same password for every service or application. These are all big no-noes and essentially defeat the purpose of a password.

    Google is trying to kill off passwords on Android devices by introducing the Trust API, which does what simple passwords cannot and gives developers a framework for securing their application using a number of security systems and metrics(衡量标准)on the device. A Trust Score will be generated based on a number of metrics including your device location, face scanning, fingerprints, and the things like your typing speed or the way you speak. Taken one at a time, these metrics are not secure. But taken together, these metrics will help recognize the real “you”.

    The good news is that Google has already been testing this on real world data. Google has proven the Trust API works. Next Google will run tests will some banks to see if the Trust API meets their needs before rolling out the system on Android phones later. It may take another year for apps and popular sites to start using the Trust API.

    This is a pretty exciting change. Passwords have been around for a lone time. Although the security of systems has been improved, the usability of systems hasn’t been proved much. Google appears to have the best of them. Maybe that never-ending conflict between security and convenience will be able to take a break once the Trust system comes out.

    1.What is implied in the underlined sentence in Para. 2?

    A. Users make mistakes in using passwords.

    B. Users should know the purpose of passwords.

    C. Users have learnt to say no to their passwords.

    D. Users misunderstand the meaning of passwords.

    2.How is the key part of the Trust API generated?

    A. By taking one metric at a time.

    B. By combining various metrics.

    C. By developing security systems.

    D. By analyzing complex passwords.

    3.What can we know about the Trust system from the text?

    A. It needs to be improved in the future.

    B. It hasn’t been proven to be effective.

    C. It will be used on Android devices first.

    D. It is secure and convenient for the users.

    4.What would be the best title for the text?

    A. How does Google develop the Trust API?

    B. Will the Trust API meet the users’ needs?

    C. Will passwords soon be a thing of the past?

    D. How do passwords protect personal information?

    In 1999,twelve percent of public elementary schools in the United States required students to wear uniforms. Just three years later,the amount was almost double that.

    A study of six big-city Ohio public schools showed students who were required to wear uniforms had improved graduation,behavior and attendance rates.Academic performance was unchanged.

    Some high schools in Texas have also joined in the movement.Yet studies find mixed results from requiring uniforms.And some schools have turned away from such policies.

    Supporters believe dressing the same creates a better learning environment and safer schools.The school district in Long Beach,California,was the first in the country to require uniforms in all elementary and middle schools.The example helped build national interest in uniforms as a way to deal with school violence and improve learning.

    Findings in Long Beach suggested that the policy resulted in fewer behavior problems and better attendance. But researcher Viktoria,who has looked at those findings,says they were based only on opinions about the effects of uniforms.

    She says other steps taken at the same time to improve schools in Long Beach and statewide could have influenced the findings.The district (the area marked by government) increased punishments for misbehavior.And California passed a law to reduce class sizes.

    In Florida,for example,researcher Sharon found that uniforms seemed to improve behavior and reduce violence. In Texas,Eloise found fewer discipline problems among students required to wear uniforms,but no effect on attendance.

    Sociologist David has studied school uniform policies since1998.He collected the reports in the book.In his own study,he found that reading and mathematics performance dropped after a school in Pennsylvania（宾夕法尼亚州）required uniforms.

    Political and community pressures may persuade schools to go to uniforms to improve learning.But David and others believe there is not enough evidence of a direct relationship.In fact,he says requiring uniforms may even increase discipline problems.

    1.Which of the following researchers are NOT supporters of school uniform policies?

    A. Viktoria and Sharon. B. Sharon and David.

    C. Eloise and Sharon. D. Viktoria and David.

    2.The underlined word “misbehavior” in the sixth paragraph probably means ________.

    A. serious crime B. bad performance

    C. absence for class D. action against wearing uniforms

    3.What can we infer from the passage?

    A. More work is needed to get better information about uniform’s effect.

    B. The number of schools requiring uniforms in the U.S.will become less sharply.

    C. Wearing uniforms has little to do with behavior and learning.

    D. Politicians and communities won’t vote for uniform policies.

    4.What’s the main idea of this passage?

    A. More and more students are required to wear uniforms in the U.S.

    B. Wearing uniforms contributes to good academic performance.

    C. Researchers in the U.S.argue for school uniform policies.

    D. Evidence for school uniform polices in the U.S.is seen as weak.

    From: Wendy and Jack Brown

    Date: September 22, 2014

    To: 8th and 9th graders at R.L.S. Junior School

    Subject: Bonjour!

    Bonjour! (That means hello in French.)

    We hope you all had a great summer. Ours was a lot of fun. We have seen so many new things and met so many wonderful people. The French gave us a warm welcome and helped us get used to living here soon. We have so many things to share with all of you. We are going to send you more emails, but here are the best parts of our holiday in France so far.

    We had a fantastic time seeing the Tour de France this summer. It is the most famous bicycle race in the world. The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month! We got a quick look at the riders as they sped past! After the race, our family rented bikes, and rode along part of the route that the cyclists used.

    A few of you asked whether the French really eat snails(蜗牛). The answer is yes. We went out to dinner the other day, and our parents ordered some. We each tried one and it didn’t taste too bad. The snails, called escargots, are served with lots of butter. They feel a little rubbery when you bite into them, but they don’t really have much taste. Mum’s favourite food here is the French pastries. Dad loves the red wine. Our favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street.

    We went to visit the Eiffel Tower a few weeks ago. We went all the way to the top. It was a sunny day, so we could see for miles and miles into the distance. Dad doesn’t like heights, so he stayed at the bottom of the tower and took pictures from the ground.

    We miss all of you a lot. Write back to us and let us know what is new at home.

    Au revoir! (Can you guess what that means in French?)

    Wendy and Jack Brown

    A Canine Reading Buddy

    Dogs and people have developed a special bond over time. Recently, however, some dogs have taken a different role in people’s lives—therapy dogs.

    1. Some therapy dogs visit patients in hospitals or nursing homes, while others visit children in schools and libraries. They are there to help children become better readers.

    Reading programs that use therapy dogs have been in existence for more than ten years. All therapy dogs of this program are registered with an organization that tests the dogs to make sure they have the right personality for the job.

    2. Both the dogs and the handlers are volunteers with the reading program.

    At the start of a reading therapy session, a child and a dog are introduced. The pair is allowed to settle down in a quiet corner together. 3. An adult handler stays nearby but generally lets the dog perform its job without interfering(干涉). Sometimes, a handler may ask a question that encourages the child to work with the dog to help the child feel more comfortable.

    Not every child will be able to be part of a reading therapy program that uses dogs. A few children might be allergic to dogs or afraid of them; some children might have cultural traditions that prevent them from touching a dog. 4.

    Reading therapy programs inspire learning and change. 5. They spend time with human friends. For dogs that love human companionshiop and a quiet place to rest, being part of a reading therapy program can be a great way to spend a few hours each day. The readers benefit too, gaining confidence and learning that reading aloud can be a relaxing experience.

    A. How do the therapy dogs benefit from it?

    B. But therapy animals also serve in many other areas.

    C. As the child reads, the dog usually lies quietly and listens.

    D. When reading to an animal, some children may become relaxed.

    E. In these circumstances, other animals are available, such as cats and parrots.

    F. A therapy dog is more of a companion and is trained to help people in different ways.

    G. A dog’s handler also takes a class and must pass a test to work in the therapy program.
