“What should I wear today？” That's a question you might ask yourself in the morning. For some kids，the answer is the same every day─a school uniform.
More than 10 years ago，3 percent of all public schools in the US required that students wear uniforms. Now，that number is closer to 10 percent. Some people support the policy（政策），hoping that uniforms will encourage students to focus on（专注于）their work. Opponents，however，say students should be allowed to express themselves through their clothing.
Yes！ ◆"My school has a strict uniform policy. At school my friends and I don't have the need to discuss clothes，and we enjoy just being together and learning. The best thing I like about our uniform is the style，especially the shirts and sweaters，"said fourth grader Clifton Harris.
◆"It helps save parents' money，"a mother said. ◆“I think uniforms help students focus on their studies rather than their clothes，”Megan Mannion said. Her school，Rankin Elementary School，has had a uniform policy since 1995.

Six years ago，Ann graduated（毕业）from college with a degree in Art. Now she is twenty-nine and works for a large computer company. She takes classes twice a week after work.

My 14-year-old son, John, and I saw the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, $28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John’s eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well.
John wore the coat to school the next day. After he came home, I asked, “Did the kids like your coat ”
“They love it,” he said with a big grin.
Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and much happier. “Good dinner, Mom,” he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, “You’re right. I guess I will.” When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.
John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.
（ ）41．What can we learn from the first paragraph
A．The price of the coat was too high. B．John liked the coat very much.

C．Work hard on schoolwork. D．Carry in wood for the stove.
（ ）44．Which of the following changes did NOT happen to John after he wore the coat
A．He was willing to follow suggestions. B．He often helped to do some housework.
C．He always worried about his study. D．He said sweet words to make his mother happy.
（ ）45．What does the writer want to say through this passage
A．What we wear could help what we are.
B．Life is full of possibilities when we are young.
C．We should not judge people by their appearance.
D．It’s a good choice to try different things in our lives.

As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me. One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first,” he said. “When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a card board folded (折叠的) in half, wrote their names boldly with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name directly.”
“I couldn’t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.”
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance would not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you could find a chance on the card.
（ ）46．What did Mr. Black want the students to do in his class
A．Read loudly. B．Take notes carefully. C．Be active. D．Listen to him quietly.
（ ）47．How did the writer’s classmates behave when they were asked questions
A．They raised their hands. B．They shook their heads.
C．They closed their eyes. D．They lowered their heads.
（ ）48．How did the speaker get to know the students’ names
A．He got them from the computer. B．He saw the cardboards on the seats.
C．He asked the students for their names.
D．He got them from the name list on the teacher’s desk.
（ ）49．What does the underlined word “eye-catching” in Paragraph 1 mean in Chinese
A．引人注目的 B．眼睛疼痛的 C．目光呆滞的 D．睡眼朦胧的
（ ）50．What does the writer mainly tell us
A．Doing as others do is necessary. B．Answering questions bravely is easy.
C．Attracting others’ attention is interesting.
D．Showing yourself bravely can win chances.
四、阅读判断，正确（T） 错误（F）
There are twenty-seven bridges over the River Thames. And the Tower Bridge is the first bridge you have to pass if you go to London from the sea. It is close to the Tower of London, from which it got its name. It is a symbol of London.
The Tower Bridge was set up over the River Thames in London in 1894 and is one of the finest and most famous bridge in the world. It is the only bridge over the River Thames that can be raised and opened in the middle. The middle part can be raised to let the huge ships pass. It used to be raised about 50 times a day, but now it is raised only 4 to 5 times a week. If you are lucky enough to see the bridge with its two arms open high in the air, you will never forget it.
The Tower Bridge stands just on the south side of the Tower of London. People often think they are of the same age. But in fact, the Tower of London was built a thousand years ago, while the Tower Bridge only has a history of over one hundred years.
The Tower Bridge was first painted chocolate brown. Then in 1977, it was painted red, white and blue. Its picture also appeared in the opening of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games held in London. So come to visit the famous bridge. You are sure to have a wonderful experience.
（ ）51．The colour of the Tower Bridge hasn’t changed for more than a hundred years.
（ ）52．In 1894, the Tower Bridge was built in London.
（ ）53．The Tower of London has a much longer history than the Tower Bridge.
（ ）54．The Tower Bridge is now raised less often than in the past.
（ ）55．This passage means to introduce the Tower of London.
