For the first time, Zhang Shengyu, a student at Laiyang Middle School in Shangdong, didn’t ask her mother to buy her a new schoolbag or any new pens for the beginning of the school term. “My old schoolbag can still be used, so there is no to buy a new one,” Zhang said. “I’ve decided to be thrifty (节约的) from now on.”
As the centre of the family’s attention, many of the one-child generation do not know about the hardships of life. They sometimes have no idea of the value of things. Many students would throw away pens and erasers that haven’t been used up and buy new ones. Some like to each other to see whose clothes and school things are more expensive.
The Ministry of Education released a notification (通知) on its website on Jan 20, 2013. It called on students to form good habits such as diligence and thrift to avoid wasting food and to famous brands (品牌).
Many schools consider teaching the value of money to be an important lesson and encourage their students to be thrifty.
Students at No 44 Middle School in Heibei planted many fruit trees on their campus. The students learned how to cherish (爱惜) things taking care of the trees. “With everyone’s work, we can make a difference,” said Li Dong, a student at the school.
(B) B) Sorry! D) I agree with you.
For most of us in China, we only have to turn on the tap to get clean water. We seldom think twice about where it comes from.
Day after day, thousands of children in poor countries have to hours walking for miles to collect water. What’s more, the water is dirty and can cause serious diseases, such as diarrhea (腹泻). It’s hard to believe, but every 20 seconds a child dies as a result of a water-related disease.
The international water-aid charity called Just a Drop clean water for some of the poorest areas in the world, by building wells, pipelines (水管) and toilets. The charity has helped about 1.5 million people
Betty, from Uganda, is just one of the people who have been helped by Just a Drop. 11-year-old Betty had to walk two miles every day, carrying two heavy cans dirty pond water before Just a Drop placed a well in her village. “I used to get sick from the water. Now, I don’t have to walk long distances and I feel much safer with this clean water.”

In the 1920s and 30s the airlines were just beginning. It was unusual for people to travel by air because it was dear and dangerous. In those days, there were no flight attendants to look after the passengers. Young men, or “stewards (空乘)” helped the passengers onto the airplane and carried the passengers’Ellen Church was born in 1904 on a farm in Iowa. She was a different child. She didn’t want to work on a farm or marry a farmer —she wanted a more adventurous (冒险的) life. Ellen studied to be a nurse at the University of Minnesota and then got a job in a hospital. For the next few years she stayed at the hospital but she also took flying lessons and got her pilot’s license.
Ellen was twenty-five years old when she first got in touch with Boeing Air Transport. She loved flying but she understood that airlines were a man’s world. Although women like Emelia Earheart were becoming famous, she realized it was impossible for a woman to have a career as a pilot. But she had another idea. Most people were frightened of flying because flying was still an unreliable way to travel. There were often delays, many crashes and the bad weathers made many passengers sick. Ellen thought nurses could take care of passengers during flights and B.A.T. agreed.
The young woman from Iowa and seven other nurses became the first air stewardesses. At first pilots were unhappy because they did not want stewardesses on airplanes, but passengers loved the stewardesses. In 1940 there were around 1000 of them working for different airlines. The early “stewardesses” had to be under twenty-five-year-old, single and slim. When a woman joined an airline, she had to promise not to get married or have children. It was hard job and not well paid. They worked long hours and earned ＄1 an hour.
In the 1970s, stewardesses were unhappy in their job and airlines had to make some changes. Since the 1970s, “stewardesses” have been called flight attendants. They are well paid and work fewer hours than in the past.
69. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph suggests that Ellen was the first woman to
_________.
A) invent the new word “stewardess” B) flew a plane
C) work on a plane D) travel by plane
70. From the second paragraph, we learn that ________.
A) Ellen did not behave in the same way as most as other girls
B) Ellen’s family was not rich enough to support her education
C) Ellen was fond of working on a farm.
D) Ellen has an unhappy childhood that changed her completely.
71. Ellen ________ when she was young.
A) didn’t work as nurse in a hospital B) didn’t want to marry a farmer on a farm
C) didn’t take flying lessons D) failed to get her pilot license
72. The main reason for Boeing Air Transport offering Ellen the job was ________.
A) her flying experience B) her university education
C) her nursing experience D) her life attitudes
73. According to the passage, in the 1940s, a woman had to _______ if she wanted to be a
stewardess.
A) be a nurse B) be married C) be a mother D) be young
74. The passage mainly talks about _______.
A) the background of early flying pilots B) the experience of flying passengers

School uniforms have been around for hundreds of years, and even perhaps longer.

Many times, kids are because of the clothes they wear, and it seems that no matter how hard parents try, kids know who is poor in the school.

There are some other things that make the idea of school uniforms more . There is no need to buy designer clothes that so many kids demand these days, and this can be very for parents who are constantly being asked by their kids to buy the next latest and greatest fashion.
