| That little "a" with a circle around it is most commonly used as the "at" symbol. The symbol is usually found in e-mail addresses. Surprisingly though, there is no official (官方的) name for this symbol, there are lots of strange ways to describe the @ symbol. Before the @ symbol became the popular symbol for e-mail, it was used to show the cost of something. For example, if you bought 6 apples, you might write 6 apples @$1.10 each. As e-mail is becoming more and more popular, the@symbol or the"at sign is used between a person"s online user name and his mail server address, for example, joe@126.com. The symbol"s use on the Internet made it necessary for people to put this symbol on keyboards in the countries that had never seen or used the symbol before. The actual origin (起源) of the @ symbol remains a mystery. According to an ancient western legend, during the Middle Ages before the invention of the printing press (印刷机), every letter of a word had to be written by hand for each copy of a book. The monks (僧侣) looked for ways to make the letters of common words less. Although the word "at" was quite short, it was quite a common word in texts and documents. As a result, they circled around "a" and created @. 根据短文内容，选择最佳选项。 | |||

| Last winter vacation, I visited Murdoch School in Australia with my parents. It was a beautiful school. 1 the attraction for me was that life at the school was quite relaxing. The students didn’t have 2 schoolbags. The teachers there said classes were from 8 am to 3 pm on weekdays. That means the students 3 only six hours a day for study (one hour for lunch). The teachers don’t 4 too much homework, so the students can 5 them  selves on weekends or during winter and summer holidays. But in China, we have to study all the time. Usually, we have to get up at 6 o’clock in the morning and then study 6 10 o’clock at night. There is too much homework for 7 to finish after school. 8 all this, our schoolbags are extremely heavy with many textbooks, reference books, notebooks, and exam papers. Long hours of study and too much homework 9 most of us wear glasses. With light schoolbags, students enjoy school life; with heavy schoolbags, school life does  not 10 students anymore. Of course, I really want the former (前者), but who can give it to me? | |||
