Sometimes It is Better Late than Never. When we are young, we all have dreams about future, but as time passes, we may not been able to make this become a reality. We have the capabilities for different things and the ability to perform it, but there may have a few wishes that we still could not fulfill it now. There are many changes over the years, also the thoughts about our life but certain things from childhood will always remain in our memory. Until perhaps after years, the possibility may arises that we are able to turn our dream from the past into a reality. And at that time we might be having the uncertainty, because we think that we are too old to start something. Because we already have several other activities in our hand and thereby having doubt to even begin with it. Perhaps its no longer fit into our lifestyle or we already have new family members that deserve our attention more. It was a dream for us when we only a kid and it's never happened because there was no possibility for make it real on that time, but now everthing is possible!!!! Our wishes and dreams have no expiration date, so why should we restrained ourselves and not let it become true. We are never too old to learn something and almost nothing is being tied to a physical disadvantage by age. Never stop to pursue and to let our childhood dream become true, and when it really turns into a reality, we will welcome it with joy.It's better late than never so it is always possible for us to achieve anything in reality from our past thoughts. - Jan Jansen

A school in Nanjing plans to order Korean-style school uniforms for students, but parents were against the move, believing that the new uniforms looked too good and would encourage early romances among the students. Parents: “My daughter was so excited about the Korean-style uniform, saying it’s her dream to wear a miniskirt to school every day,” a mom said. “My daughter also called her classmates to talk about how handsome the boys looked in the uniforms! If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they concentrate on their studies?” School: we had to stop the plan because many parents were strongly against it. Some parents thought it was just a way for the school to make money, and others thought the new uniforms would take students attention away from their studies. Students: the students were very disappointed about the school’s final decision. They thought the sportswear uniforms made them look androgynous( 兼具两性的). They said the Korean uniforms had many advantages such as raising interest in class and lifting confidence. As for concerns about romance, the students believe that love is love and has no relationship to the uniforms. The Department of Education: We don’t have a unified standard for school uniforms. The schools can choose their own styles. Either sportswear or other uniforms are OK. Currently, most middle and elementary schools in Nanjing have sportswear uniforms. Expert: Fashionable school uniforms can increase students’ interest in learning. Parents don’t need to worry too much about early romances. Today’s primary and middle school students have strong personalities and their appreciation of beauty is rapidly forming. A fashionable uniform can foster(培养) their sense of belonging to the school and reduce their resistance to the school’s management. But we don’t have to follow Korean or Japanese styles. We should design our own Chinese style uniforms. 81. Why were some parents against their children wearing fashionable school uniforms？ (No more than 15 words) 82. Why did students dislike the sportswear uniforms?& (No more than 5 words) 83. What’s experts’ attitude towards fashionable school uniforms? (No more than 3 words)&
84. What’s the title of the passage? &&(No more than 10 words)
81. Because they thought the new uniforms would take students attention away from their studies./ Because they were afraid they couldn’t concentrate on their studies./ Because they believed that the new uniforms looked too good and would encourage early romances. 82. They thought the sportswear uniforms made them look androgynous. 83. Encouraging/Positive 84. Korean-style school uniforms or not. /Different opinions about Korean-style school uniforms./Discussion about whether we should order Korean-style school uniforms or not.

I had been rather proud of myself when my friends and family got the ticket, whether it was for speeding, parking or stop sign violations (违反). It was something that happened to others. But last Friday I joined the club.I was asked to do a new project last week. On Friday morning on my way to work, I suddenly remembered that I had spent the past six weeks without considering that I had a week’s vacation planned during that time. I was very disappointed with myself for not remembering it.The truth is that I was not paying enough attention to my driving and I did not come to a complete stop at the stop sign in front of a school. I was so distracted (思想不集中的) that I didn’t even notice I had a policeman on my tail with his lights flashing. Finally I looked in my mirror and caught on.The policeman was rude and took my papers. Fortunately, I had everything up to date and since I had never had a ticket before, there was nothing for him to do but write me a ticket. While I was sitting there in the seat of “shame”, I felt bad. If I had been that distracted and a child had run onto the road, perhaps I would have not reacted as well as I could have. It was a wake-up call.People at work asked me if I tried to talk my way out of it（为自己开脱）. Frankly, it never occurred to me. I felt sorry. Now I no longer have a clean driving record. Please be careful out there, as a moment’s distraction can lead to tragedy.【小题1】What is this passage mainly about?A．The writer’s most unforgettable experience.B．How the writer got her first ticket.C．An accident caused by the writer.D．Why the writer is always so careful.【小题2】The underlined part “the club” in Paragraph I here refers to __________.A．people who are crazy about driving carsB．a club for drivers without much experienceC．people who get tickets for breaking traffic rulesD．a club for people to talk about their driving stories【小题3】What made the writer unable to focus on her driving?A．Planning how to spend the vacation.B．Thinking of the forgotten vacation.C．Thinking about her workD．Missing her children.【小题4】When the writer received the ticket, she __________.A．felt lucky that she was an experienced driverB．was so nervous that she shook all overC．was ashamed（愧疚的）of herself for being distractedD．was worried about being laughed at

Sleeping in on Saturday after a few weeks of too little shuteye may feel refreshing, but it can give a false sense of security.New research shows long-term sleep loss cannot be cured that easily. Scientists researched the effects of short- and long-term sleep loss and found that those who suffer long-term sleep loss may function normally soon after waking up, but experience steadily slower reaction times as the day goes by, even if they had tried to catch up the previous night.The research has important safety significances in an increasingly busy society, not just for shift-workers but for the roughly one in six Americans who regularly get six hours or less of sleep a night.“We know that staying awake 24 hours without sleep will affect your performance to do all sorts of things, and this effect equals to drinking too much when driving,” said lead researcher Dr. Daniel Cohen of Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. But when those who suffer long-term sleep loss become all-nighters, “the harm is increased ten times,” Cohen said.The National Institutes of Health says adults need seven hours to nine hours of sleep for good health. Regularly getting too little sleep increases the risk of health problems, including memory impairment and a weakened immune system. More immediately, too little sleep af sleepiness is to blame for car crashes and other accidents.It has critically important complicated and unexpected results for anyone who works “crazy hours” and thinks they are performing fine with a few hours of weeknight sleep, said Harris, director at New York’s Montefiore Medical Center. “Don’t think you can just bank up your sleep on the weekend, because it doesn’t work that way,” he warned.【小题1】The text mainly advises people &&&&.A．to sleep more timeB．to sleep in on SaturdayC．to sleep scientifically D．to sleep little on weekend【小题2】People with long-term sleep loss &&&&.A．are quicker in thinkingB．may feel refreshed soon after waking upC．are surely energeticD．can have a strong sense of security【小题3】What can we learn from the text?A．Most of the Americans get six hours or less of sleep a night.B．Staying up is worse for those who suffer long-term sleep loss.C．Traffic accidents have little to do with sleepiness.D．One in six Americans are all-nighters.【小题4】Which of the following is the immediate effect of long-term sleep loss?A．Health problemsB．Immune systemC．Reaction timesD．Memory impairment【小题5】The underlined phrase “bank up” in the last paragraph most probably means &&&&.A．pile upB．pick upC．add upD．build upC&
