Children have got two full-time jobs already: growing up and going to school. Part-time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in class. Mrs. White:I agree. I know school hours are short, but there’s homework as well, and children need a lot of sleep.Mr. White:Young children, perhaps some boys, s tay at school until they’re eighteen or nineteen. A part-time job can’t harm them. In fact, it’s good for them. They earn their pocket money instead of asking their parents for it. And they see something of the world outside school.Businessman:You’re qu ite right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we mustn’t forget that some families need the extra money. If the pupils didn’t take part-time jobs, they couldn’t stay at school.Editor: Well, we have got two for, and two against. What do our readers think?21. Who have the same opinion?A.

We are not told.BCold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. If you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything todrink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.24. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1? ________.A.

What is the purpose of this text? ________.A. To give practical adviceB. To solve an argumentC. To tell an interesting storyD. To present a research resultCGetting rid of dirt(灰尘;尘土;污物), in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a way to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let illnesses in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus it began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first­time parents nervously try to warn(警告) their children of touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an Americanimmunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system(免疫系统). And the latter position is gaining some ground.28.The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A.they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB.they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay inC.they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD.they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease?29.Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A.ApprovingB.AfraidC.CuriousD.Uninterested30.How does the passage mainly develop?A.By providing examplesB.By following the order of importanceC.By making comparisonsD.By following the order of time31.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A.To present the change of views on dirtB.To stress the role of dirtC.To call attention to the danger of dirtD.To introduce the history of dirtDTheodor Seuss Geisel was born in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1904.
