Many students talked about the rules that they have in school． At their school, they have to wear uniforms every day． The problem is that all the students think the uniforms are   36  ． They think young people should look smart and so they would like to   37  their own clothes． Their teachers believe that if they did that, they would think more of their clothes than their   38   ． But the students disagree． They would   39   more comfortable and that is good for studying． If they can’t do that, they should be allowed （被允許）to design（設(shè)計） their own uniforms． That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students happy． It’s also probably a good idea for parents to allow teenagers to study in groups during the evening． Sometimes they get noisy   40   they can learn a lot from each other． They also think that vacations should be   41  ． At present（目前；現(xiàn)在） they’re too short． Longer vacations would give them time to do things like volunteering． Last summer they had a __42__to volunteer at the local   43  , but they couldn’t stay there longer because they had to  44  to school． It would be a good experience   45  them because some of them want to be doctors when they grow up．

IV．閱讀理解（15分）

A

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak． When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again． Everybody knows that． Yet（然而） many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way．

When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it． When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong．

If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault （過錯）． But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents should be blamed（責備）, and few of us know that it is just his own fault．

Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook． They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is practicing all the time． So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people： practice remembering．

（   ）46．Which is right?

    A． Your arms or your legs will become weak when you use them．

B． Your memory works in the same way as your arms and legs．

C． Everybody knows that memory works in the same way as their arms and legs．

D． Your memory can’t become strong again when you use them again．

（   ）47． If you want to have a good memory, you must________．

    A． practice it                           B． not give it enough chance to become strong

C． have clever parents                    D． use your arms and legs often

（   ）48． One has a bad memory because of _________．

    A． his own fault                         B． his parents’ fault

C． his teachers’ fault                     D． his strong arms and legs

（   ）49． Many people who can’t read and write can remember things well because________．

A． they have to remember                   B． they can’t write them down

C． they practice remembering                D． they can remember things quickly

（   ）50． The writer tells us：__

    A． a good memory comes from practice         B． a good memory needs strong arms and legs

C． parents can make us clever                    D． to remember days, names and song

B

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today． People didn’t have modern machines． There was no modern medicine, either．

Life today has brought new problems． One of the biggest is pollution． Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty． It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water． Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily． Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution．  It’s bad for all the living things in the world．

Cars, planes and factories all polluted air so thick that it is like a quilt （被子）over a city． This kind of quilt is called smog（煙霧）．

Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution． Factories must now clean their water before it flows（流走） away, they mustn’t put dirty smoke into the air．

We need to do many other things． We can put waste things in the dustbin（垃圾桶） and not throw（扔） it on the ground． We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car． If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution．

Rules are not enough． Every person must help to fight against pollution．

Once there lived an old man． He liked gold better than anything else in the world． He often said, “If I have enough gold（金子）, I will be the happiest man in the world．”
