　　Son's Help

　　Mr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday. A few friends of his liked gambling(赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watches and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didn't listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him.

　　It was New Year's Day. Mr. Lang didn't go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come. He told his five­year­old son to go to find out if there were the policemen outside. They waited for a long time and didn't think the police would come and began to gamble. Suddenly opened the door and in came a few policemen.

　　“I saw there weren't any policemen outside, daddy，” said the boy, “so I went to the crossing and asked some to come.”

　　A group of British schools are banning skirts after helplessly watching the fashion of

　　“hemline_creep” when girls roll up skirts to show more of their legs.Rising hemlines among girls in their mid­to­late teens have long been a headache for schools.Now，it seems，girls who are leaving homes with perfectly proper skirt lengths manage to transform their uniform into micro­miniskirts by the time they get to school.

　　Some are so short that the headmaster of Tewksbury School in Gloucestershire said they are “almost like belts”．Obviously，they have become a bit of a distraction (分心) for both boys and male teachers.

　　Robert Kelly，headmaster of Berwickshire High School in Scotland，said short skirts could cause “inappropriate thoughts” among boys.And Hilary Winter，headmaster of Piggott School in Wargrave，Surrey，described short skirts as a “difficult distraction for members of staff ”．

　　In the town of Ipswich alone three schools have removed skirts from their approved uniform list.David Hutton，headmaster of Northgate High School，said，“Unfortunately，despite getting in touch with specific parents，sending some girls home to change，requiring others to wear a school­owned skirt for the day and repeatedly asking others to unroll their skirts，we still had some girls coming to school in inappropriate skirts.”

　　“I have therefore introduced a trousers­only policy，which will enable my staff to focus their time and effort on providing students with the best education possible.”

　　Girls at Nailsea School near Bristol are used to a uniform ban.Two years ago，they were forbidden from wearing trousers made by the clothing brand Miss Sexy，which were reportedly too low on the hips (臀部) and too tight.“Staff were becoming embarrassed by seeing too much of the girls instead of the uniform，”headmaster David New said.“They were very low, hipster­style，very tight trousers.”Now they have been banned from wearing skirts.

　　“We didn't want to waste any more time on it.It just means that teachers can concentrate on what's important in education，”New said.

　　Megan Throp，a 15­year­old student at Guiseley School in Leeds，facing a trousers­only policy，told the Yorkshire Evening Post newspaper，“Our rights and freedom of being young women have been taken away because we have been forced into wearing school trousers.”

　　However，students are likely to find another means of adjusting dress code (着装规定)，as David New told the LA Times，“I suspect that，teenagers being teenagers，there will be a new uniform violation (违反行为) that becomes the habit，”he said.“That was true when I was at school，and I'm sure it was true when my father was at school.”

　　【语篇大意】 本文为一篇议论文。很多英国学校禁止女生穿过短的裙子，因为女生穿得过短会使男生分心，也使老师很难专注于自己的工作。尽管学校严令禁止，但是学生们总能找到好的方法改变她们的校服。

　　40．The underlined words “hemline creep”(Paragraph 1) probably mean ________.

　　A．making the trousers tighter

　　B．cutting off the bottom of a skirt

　　C．reducing the length of trousers

　　D．folding the bottom edge of a skirt

　　解析　答案　D

　　41．What measure has Northgate High School taken to keep girls from wearing short skirts?

　　A．Asking parents not to buy skirts for their daughters any more.

　　B．Keeping girls wearing inappropriate skirts out of school.

　　C．Reminding girls not to roll up their skirts again and again.

　　D．Permitting only a small number of girls to wear skirts at school.

　　解析　答案　C

　　42．What David New said implies that ________.

　　A．teachers should focus more on their work than on uniform

　　B．trousers by Miss Sexy were banned because they're too short

　　C．most teenage girls would like to be treated as young women

　　D．children will always find a new way to change their uniform

　　解析　答案　D

　　43．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

　　A．British schools banning skirts

　　B．Uniform violation becoming a habit

　　C．Short skirts causing distraction

　　D．Trousers—only policy meeting opposition

　　Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing (令人迷惑的). A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”．

　　On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren't paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks. The woman there didn't say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her:

　　She had raised her eyebrows (眉毛), which in Micronesia means“yes”．

　　Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today？” He nodded his head.Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means no.

　　Tom had a similar problem when he arrived in India.After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood.They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head.He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing—He soon found out that his students did understand.In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from. You have to know where a person is from to understand whether they mean “yes” or “no”．

　　On the afternoon of September 27, 2008, astronaut Zhai Zhigang became the first Chinese man to walk in space on Saturday, clambering (攀爬) out of China's Shenzhou VII spacecraft in a technological feat (成就) that made the Chinese people excited.

　　“I'm feeling quite well. I greet the Chinese people and the people of the world，”Zhai said as he climbed out of the craft at around 16∶40 Beijing time, a historic achievement telecast live on CCTV. Tens of millions of Chinese viewers gathered before TV screens to watch the moment.

　　Chinese President Hu Jintao and other top leaders had appeared at the Beijing Aerospace Control Center to watch the live transmission of Zhai's space walk.

　　Zhai, 42, chosen by an expert team for the first “out­of­capsule activity，”showed a red national flag, helped by colleague Liu Boming, who also briefly popped his head out of the capsule.

　　Zhai slowly made his way towards a test sample of solid lubricant (润滑剂) outside the capsule, took a sample and handed it to Liu.

　　Zhai safely returned inside the craft after about 20 minutes. The walk marked the highpoint of China's third manned space journey, which has received widespread media coverage.

　　Zhai wore a $4.4 million Chinese­made suit weighing 120 kg. Liu wore a Russian­made one and acted as an assistant.

　　The third crew member, Jing Haipeng, monitored the ship from inside the re­entry module.

　　The risky maneuver is a step towards China's longer­term goal of building a space lab and then a larger space station, analysts said.

　　“On this flight, Chinese people's footprints will be left in space for the first time，” said a commentary by the Xinhua news agency.

　　The astronauts went aboard on their walk after receiving a clean bill of health from doctors on the ground at mission control in Beijing, Xinhua said.

　　Zhai's suit has 10 layers and takes up to 15 hours to assemble and put on.

　　China's first manned spaceflight was in 2003. A second, two­manned flight followed in 2005. The only other countries that have sent people into space are Russia and the United States.

　　Shenzhou VII took off on Thursday and is due to land on the northern steppes(草原)of Inner Mongolia on Sunday.

　　【语篇大意】 2008年9月25日，中国“神舟七号”顺利升空，27日，中国宇航员翟志刚穿着中国人自己研制的“飞天”宇航服进行了太空行走。这次舱外活动是中国航天事业的又一里程碑。
