What time does your school start Do you wish you could get up later every morning You are not alone if your answer is "Yes." In the US, many middle school students have the same wish.
In America, many schools start before 7:30 am. But that may change soon. A new law has been passed in California. According to the law, middle schools should not start before 8:00 am. The government hopes school children will have longer time in bed.
Many scientific studies show that teenagers are more active in the afternoon and in the evening. Simply telling them to go to bed earlier doesn't work well. Most of them don't get enough sleep because of bad sleeping habits and early school starting time. They need more sleep in the morning. Scientists suggest middle schools should start at 8:00 am. or later. Students can get well ready to learn and they won't fall asleep in class. 33.________ The change can help improve students' grades.
While scientists are happy with the new law, many parents disagree with it. They won't be able to send their children to school before they go to work. They also fear that later school starting time will lead to later ending time. As a result, their children will have less time to take part in after-school activities.
It's good news that Chinese education experts have noticed the problem and made some rules about that. So what's your opinion Do you expect China to pass a similar law
31.The schools shouldn't start _____ according to the new law in California.
A.before 7:30 a.m. B.after 7:30 a.m. C.after 8:00 a.m. D.before 8:00 a.m.
32.Why don't most of the teenagers get enough sleep
A.Because their parents need them to do housework.
B.Because their sleeping habits are bad and schools start early.
C.Because they play computer games too late.
D.Because they have too much homework.
33.Which sentence do you think can be filled in the blank in Paragraph 3
A.They can put on weight. B.They will like their teachers.
C.They will join more clubs. D.They will pay more attention to classes.
34.What can we know from the passage
A.The government of New York has passed a new law.
B.All the parents disagree with the law.
C.Later school starting time may lead to fewer after-school activities.
D.Teenagers are more active in the morning.

Through the movies, we will get to know how people protect pandas. Finally, everyone should hand in a poster about the protection of pandas.
As a middle school student, volunteering at Dujiangyan Panda Base will be an amazing experience for us. Because we can not only learn a lot about the pandas but also know more about how to protect them.
Yours,
Li Hua
