On her first day back at school in August, Stephanie Hughes, a teenage student, was sent to the principal’s office at Woodford County High School in Kentucky, US and her mom was called to school.

She had made a “huge” mistake－at least in the eyes of the school－by wearing a top that showed her collarbone . It was against the school’s dress code.

“This is ridiculous!” Stacie Dunn, Hughes’s mom, wrote on the social media site Facebook. “Something needs to change!”

The incident has become an Internet sensation. Across the US, schools like Woodford are being criticized for their dress codes. Some say the rules are especially unfair to young women.

Over half of US public schools have a dress code, and they are often different for girls and boys, according to the National Center for Education Statistics in the US. Some dress codes, for example, ban skirts and ask for pants to be at least knee-length.

Some have pointed out that these rules are mostly for female students. Women’s clothes are usually cut to be more fitted and shorter, while men’s clothes are longer and looser. In practice, more women will be caught breaking dress codes. The New York Post reported that last year, one school in Staten Island, New York gave 200 dress code detentions in two weeks－90 percent of which went to female students.

Some school administrators say they simply want students to dress professionally to prepare students for their future careers. But others have told female students that their clothes present a “distraction” to male students. That idea is being criticized.

The “distraction” argument is unfair to women, critics say. It suggests that exposed skin means that you want criticism or sexual advances.

“These dress codes mean that girls are getting very clear messages that men have a right to your body in public spaces and it’s socially acceptable, but you will be punished,” Laura Bates, a co-founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, a project that aims to promote equality between men and women, told The Atlantic.

Some students have taken action to change the situation. They have started online campaigns and made short films to build public support.

Certain schools have now chosen to think again about their dress codes with parents and students. Even Woodford County High School－h(huán)ome of the “collarbone” ban－is thinking again about its policies. But, at least for now, the dress code debate is far from over.

1.The underlined phrase “dress code” in Paragraph 2 means in the article.

A. rules for dressing

B. bans on wearing certain clothes

C. policies for dressing professionally

D. policies on what to wear for special occasions

2.What does Stacie Dunn think is “ridiculous”?

A. Her daughter making big mistakes in class.

B. Showing collarbones being considered a huge mistake.

C. Sharing the incident on Facebook.

D. Being called in to school.

3.The dress codes are mainly a problem for female students because .

A. women’s clothes are loose and long

B. they are often caught breaking them

C. they often dress in a way that draws attention

D. women’s clothes are often short and fitted

4.The dress code debate has led to , according to the article.

A. many students ignoring their school dress codes

B. students starting online debates and campaigns about the incident

C. some schools reconsidering their policies with parents and students

D. public support of more discussions about equality between men and women

China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors---silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.

It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.

Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied（陪伴） my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.

My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.

I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.

1.According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?

A. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.

B. Because they are traditional and safe.

C. Because they are colorful and available.

D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.

2.The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended__________.

A. to ride it for fun

B. to experience local culture

C. to use it for transport

D. to improve his riding skills

3.How did the author feel about his street crossing?

A. It was boring. B. It was wonderful.

C. It was lively. D. It was difficult.

4. Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?

A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.

B. The author took great pleasure in biking.

C. The author was praised by the other bikers.

D. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.

Think about the last time you felt afraid．Was it a fear of height?Did you oversleep on a weekday and fear you’d get into trouble at the office?In any case，you know what it feels like to feel fear．

But one woman doesn’t．The woman，code-named“UM”，gave her first-ever interview after years of being studied by a team of researchers．The woman is given a code name because the researchers want to protect her from anyone who would take advantage of her inability to feel afraid．

UM can’t tell you what fear is because she’s never experienced it．“I wonder what it’s like to actually be afraid of something，”she said．The formal name for the disease is Urbach-Wieth disease，which is characterized by a hoarse(粗啞的)voice，small bumps around the eyes，and calcium deposits(鈣沉積的)in the brain．

In the case of UM，the disease has transformed the part of her brain that controls the human response to fear．In the interview，UM talks about an event in her life where she was held at knifepoint and gunpoint，“I was walking to the store，and I saw a man on a park bench．He said．‘Come here，please，’so I went over to him．He grabbed me by the shirt，put a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me．I told him，‘Go ahead and cut me，’I wasn’t afraid at a11．And for some reason，he let me go．”

Doctors who have been studying UM’s condition for years have been trying different things that could strike fear into her．They finally figured something out—increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels．Extra carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is known to cause fear and panic in health individuals．Increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels did manage to give her a fright．

1.The text starts by_______．

A．challenging the reader

B．solving daily problems

C．1isting situations

D．giving explanations

2.Why is the woman with Urbach-Wieth disease given a code name?

A．To tell her case from other patients．

B．To respect her privacy．

C．To meet the researchers’demands．

D．To ensure her safety．

3.From UM’s case，we can know that Urbach-Wieth disease may________.

A．stop the brain from functioning normally

B．1ead to a decrease in calcium deposits

C．stop the brain from responding quickly

D．1ead to an increase in carbon dioxide

4.What will probably happen to UM?

A．Dying of the Urbach-Wieth disease．

B．Getting the sense of panic．

C．Experiencing another danger．

D．Speaking with a hoarse voice．

請認真閱讀下列短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。

Amazingly, US crime figures have been falling for 20 years now．Of course, the big question is, why? And can any lessons be learnt?

One reason could be the fall in the demand for the drug crack．During the 1980s, drug-related crimes soared, mostly caused by desperate crack users．However, according to professor Blumstein, co-author of The Crime Drop in America, news of the dangers of crack use caused its decrease and led to a fall in the number of drug-related crimes.

Some say that the adoption of a zero-tolerance policy in many cities has helped lead to a fall in crime．In New York City, for example, mayor Rudy Giuliani imposed strict and automatic punishments for all crimes, including minor offences such as graffiti and littering．Many believe this has had a very strong deterrent(威懾的) effect.

Another reason could be smarter policing strategies．Anti-theft measures and educating the community about car theft has helped see a drop in crimes in many areas．Also, the use of crime mapping schemes that can discover identify crime peaks in different parts of the city has helped police target hotspots.

Another reason could be that more criminals are now behind bars．Sociologist John Conklin (from Tufts University) says a significant factor behind the fall in crime in the 1990s is the simple fact that many criminals are in jail．In his book Why Crime Rages Fell, he says sentencing was merciful in the 1960s and 1970s, when crime rose．But then more prisons were built and more offenders were imprisoned.

Some have linked the fall in violent crime to a decline in children’s exposure to lead in petrol．Jessica Wolpaw Reyes says, “Even low to moderate levels of exposure can lead to behavioral problems, reduced IQ, hyperactivity(多動癥) and youth crimes．You can link the decline in lead between 1975 and 1985 to a decline in violent crime 20 years later.”

Others say that the drop in crime has something to do with birth rates．According to statistics, birth rates peaked between 1957 and 1961, and the proportion of men in the US in their late teens and early 20s (the so-called “criminal age”) was highest in the late 70s and early 80s．However, as time went on, the proportion of people in this age group decrease

Others claim that videogames have helpe

A recent study has suggested that these games are keeping young people off the streets and therefore away from crime．Advocates of this argue that any effects the games may have in encouraging violent behavior is offset by the fact that the games keep potential criminals indoors and in front of the television．

Some argue that the widespread use of camera phones makes some criminals think twice before committing a crime and getting filmed doing it．Also, many believe that the mass use of CCTV has also had an effect.

Finally, some say that petty theft just isn’t worth it any more．The resale value of second-hand goods such as televisions, cameras or clothes is now so low (or even non-existent) that most people see no point in stealing．

So, what do you think?

1.By writing this article, the writer intends to tell us _____.

A．the amazing fact that US crime figures are going down

B．the recent statistics showing that crime rates are falling in the US

C．the answers to the question why US crime figures are falling

D．the special policies adopted by the US police that help a drop in crime

2.“Why Crime Rates Fell” is mentioned in the article to tell readers that _____.

A．drug crack can be extremely dangerous

B．crime mapping schemes help the police discover criminals

C．criminals should be strictly sentenced

D．children shouldn’t be allowed to contact lead

3.The sixth reason mentioned in the article implies that _____ tend to commit crimes．

A．children

B．young people

C．the poor

D．crime victims

4.The underlined word “offset” most probably mean _____.

A．reduced

B．caused

C．imposed

D．demanded

A netizen wrote on Weibo on Sept 11 regarding a couple’s shameful behavior of carving their names on a 300-year-old vat at the Palace Museum and called for the museum to report the case to the police．

The post caused a heated discussion online．Some criticized the offending behavior, saying, “I don’t want to visit the Palace Museum only to find relics being carved by immoral tourists．” Others said it is common that ancient relics in Palace Museum are being damaged and laws should be introduced．

Apart from random carvings, the Palace Museum has met several cases of shameful behaviors this year．In March open-air relics were trampled(踩踏) and in May unclothed models were photographed riding on ancient relics in the museum’s courtyard．
