A
T-shirts out; uniforms in
School uniforms are becoming more
and more popular across the U. S. A. .
That’s no surprise, because they offer
many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule—wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers; school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol (象征) of law and order. The uniform means to the
wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity”. First, as noted above, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality (个性). They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.

A. tasks B. messages C. differences D. advantages
【解析】选D。猜测词义题。根据下文“校服立刻结束了由衣服所带来的社会分类和标志的现象。学生就不会在意自己的衣服,也就不会有人被嘲笑穿错衣服。”可知benefits有“优势”的意思,故选D。
2. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general _____ .
A. prevent the wearers from being laughed at
B. help the wearers keep their duties in mind
C. are seen as a symbol of power
D. help to create social barriers

3. Some people are against school uniforms because _____ .
A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms
B. they believe that uniforms will make students less creative
C. they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriers
D. they think that school uniforms are too popular
【解析】选B。细节理解题。最后一段的第一句话说“一些家长对学校校服不满,因为他们认为校服影响孩子的创造力。”由此可见答案选B。
4. The author would probably agree that _____ .
A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not
B. students’ individuality may not come from school education
C. students’ creativity is related to the clothes they choose
D. school uniforms help to create equality among students
【解析】选D。主旨大意题。这也是一道推测作者观点态度题,文中出现多个观点,只有作者的观点才是文章的正确观点。做这类题的关键是要把握字里行间体现作者情感的词,比如as noted above, will be good for 等都反映出作者对一些家长片面观点的反对,同时呼应文章第一段——文章的主题段,所以答案选D。

“What’s happening Is something wrong with my eyes ” You may wonder at what you see.Don’t worry.Here is how it goes:
When we look at things,our eyes send messages to our brains and then our brains interpret(解释)the information.However,sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way.It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us.This often happens and we call it “visual illusion(幻觉)”.
Movie makers often make use of illusions.They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual.This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are.The movies Jurassic Park and Honey, I Shrunk The Kids just make use of illusions.
