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 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.

Which was/ were the first in the U.S. to require uniforms in all elementary and middle schools?

A. Six big-city Ohio public schools.   

B. The school district in Long Beach, California.

C. Some Middle and high schools in Texas.  

D. Some elementary and middle schools in Florida. 

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.

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

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.  

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.

C

  Once upon a time,there was a wonderful old man who loved everything on the land——animals and plants.

  One day while walking through the woods,the old man found a cocoon of a butterfly. He took it home. A few days later,a small opening appeared;he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly,so he took a pair of scissors and cut the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then came out easily.

  But it had a swollen body and small,shriveled(枯萎的)wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that,at any moment,the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body,or they would be smaller. Neither happened! In fact,the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.

  What the man in his kindness and hurry did not understand was that the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was nature’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

  Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any difficulties,it would cripple(使无能)us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. And we could never fly.

59.The old man cut the cocoon in order to__________.

A.kill the butterfly

B.play with the butterfly

C.make the butterfly come out easily

D.have the butterfly

60.The reason why the butterfly could not fly is that__________.

A.the old man broke its wings

B.it was too small

C.newly born butterflies can’t fly

D.it came out of its cocoon without enough struggle

61.What can we know from the passage?

A.That old man was fond of everything except the butterfly.

B.It was the old man that stopped the butterfly flying.

C.The old man realized his mistake.

D.It’s not hard for the butterfly to come out of the cocoon.

62.What does the author want to tell us by writing the passage?

A.We should help others.

B.Without others help we can still succeed.

C.Struggles in our life can make us stronger.

D.Butterflies can fly without people’s help.

    When dining,keep your eyes on your friend at all times and try to smile between mouthfuls.
