With the start of the new term, students around the country exchange their fun and fashionable clothes for boring school uniforms. But not all campuses are fashion deserts. Colorful sports shoes, school bags, T-shirts and even drink containers are breathing life into campuses.
“The uniform makes us look like a bunch of clones, especially when we are doing morning exercises on the playground,” and Qing Pei, a Senior 2 students from Shanghai Qibao High School. “But boys wear different sports shoes and girls have different decorations(装饰品) in their hair. These are the areas where you can express yourself,” said Qing.
Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school, especially shoes, according to Qing.
“Nike and Adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must-have items for many of my friends, are becoming out-of-date,” Qing added. He explained, “Since Liu Xiang ran so fast in Athens, running shoes are becoming popular in this autumn.”
“Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with some English words printed on them,” said Qing. Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colors of schoolbags are another chance for students to express their taste in fashion. Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small dolls.
Other fashionable items are colorful drink containers, which are now popular with girls this term.
“Some teachers are surprised to see a teenager sucking a bottle like this at school and criticize it as childish regression(退化). But some girls just love it,” said Yang Rui, a Senior 3 student.

举一反三
The koala is one of Australia’s most treasured creatures, which is a lovely little creature. But now, it is in big trouble.
Affected by habitat (栖居地) loss and climate change, like many other uniquely Australian animals, koalas are being squeezed into smaller regions. But at present, it is a deadly disease, a somewhat silent killer that causes a further decline in the koala population,  that is worrying many scientists about the fate of the koala.
The killer is Chlamydia, which has caused symptoms in up to 50 percent of the wild koalas, with probably even more infected (感染) but not showing symptoms. It has been particularly severe in Queensland, where nearly all koalas are infected. The disease causes many symptoms including eye infections, which can lead to blindness, making it difficult for them to find their primary food.
Treating Chlamydia in wild koalas is a challenge. There is no treatment available for it. Only a small percentage of the animals can be treated successfully and returned to the wild. Besides, there is no national plan in Australia to save the koala;it is up to each region to make management plans for its koala population.
The good news is that researchers are working to test a vaccine (疫苗) that would help prevent further spread. If all goes well, plans can be carried out to distribute the vaccil1e more widely. But it’s impossible to vaccinate all wild koalas.
Another possibility would be to make vaccine distribution a routi11e part of treatment for the thousands of koalas brought into care centers every year after they are injured by cars or dogs.
While it is a combination of problems that are affecting the wild koala population, many experts believe this vaccine would be an important step in helping koalas survive longer. It may buy enough time to give researchers a chance to solve some of the other problems facing Australia’s koalas.
小题1:Which isn’t considered the main cause of koala’s population decline?
A.Habitat loss.B.Injuries from cars and dogs.
C.Climate change.D.A deadly disease.
小题2:The third paragraph mainly tells us     .
A.the serious result Chlamydia has caused to the koala
B.Chlamydia affected the koala only in particular regions
C.the most serious symptom of Chlamydia is eye infections
D.Chla1nydia can seriously affect koala’s primary food
小题3:The underlined word “it” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to     .
A.the koalaB.ChlamydiaC.national planD.eye infection
小题4: We can learn from the text that the vaccine     .
A.would cure the killer Chlamydia quite effectively
B.would only be distributed in koala care centers
C.has already been put into practical use in Australia
D.cannot be distributed to all the infected koalas
小题5:It can be inferred from the text that     .
A.a national plan for saving koalas will be made soon in Australia
B.koala population is declining only in a few regions
C.researchers need enough time to so1ve the koala problems
D.experts have lost the best chance to save the infected koalas

Ethiopia has greatly reduced its death rates for children under the age of five years during the last two decades, new UN statistics show. The report says Ethiopia has cut the number of child deaths, by two thirds or so, to 68 per 1,000 births compared to that in 1990.
The government owed the improved figures to its growing economy. Despite the reduction, the UN Children"s Fund said Ethiopia needed to do much more to improve health facilities(设施) for pregnant women.
Ethiopia is one of Africa"s poorest states, although it has experienced rapid economic growth in recent years and is one of the continent"s leading coffee producers. Its economy centers around agriculture, which in turn relies on rainfall.
The BBC"s Emmanuel Igunza in the capital, Addis Ababa, says Ethiopia was once representative of poor nutrition in Africa. But the latest UNICEF(联合国儿童基金会) figures show Ethiopia is one of the few African countries on the path to realizing the development goal of reducing child death rates, he says.
Ethiopia"s Health Minister Kesetebirhan Admasu said increasing family incomes had helped improve people"s health. "This has also resulted in better nutrition for children and women; this has translated into better medical conditions —— all these have a direct or indirect influence on the survival of children," he told BBC Africa. He said the government has also been "aggressively expanding its primary health care network". 
"We have now 93% coverage( 覆盖) of one health centre for 25,000 people, which basically means one health facility within a 7km area," he said.
小题1:How many in 1000 births would die in Ethiopia in 1990?
A.about 680B.about 330C.about 68D.about 200
小题2:Which of the following statements is true?
A.Ethiopian children benefit from its fastest economy growing.
B.Ethiopia has a long way to go to improve health facilities.
C.Ethiopia is the economic center because of its rich rainfall.
D.Ethiopia has already become a rich state in Africa.
小题3:What do we know according to the latest UNICEF figures?
A.Many African countries have high child death rates now.
B.Ethiopia is the only country that has reduced child death rates.
C.Ethiopia is the most successful in reducing child death rates.
D.Ethiopia was once known for its poor nutrition in Africa.
小题4:What Kesetebirhan Admasu said shows that_______.
A.agricultural incomes have helped improve all the people"s health in Africa
B.now the health care network is perfect in Ethiopia
C.93% of the 25,000 people enjoy health centers in Ethiopia
D.the government has been taking active measures to improve people"s health

My first visit to Angkor Wat(吴哥窟) was in 1980. The country had been at war for many years and the temple was deserted and falling to pieces. Plants were growing out of the roofs, and trees were growing in the courtyards.
Today, the temple is the scene of a busy repair program. A team of 15 Indian experts are organizing a workforce of 400 Cambodians, most of them women, who are cleaning, repairing and rebuilding parts of this temple.
  As I walked through the courtyards, I noticed the Cambodian women devote hours to cleaning carefully a tiny area of stone. Boards are laid down to protect the precious painted stones while the repair work is going on. There are very few machines and little heavy equipment. Workers carry building materials in buckets at the end of long poles. Piles of stones lie in a corner of the courtyard, waiting to be replaced.    
  The work of cleaning the stones is watched over by three Indian chemists. It is a very slow task. First they clean the stones with brushes using buckets of a weak chemical. Then gaps between the stones are filled in. Finally another material is painted onto the stones which will protect them from water forever.
Work starts every day at 7 a. m. and goes on until late afternoon six days a week, with a break at midday.
Evening is the best time to visit the temple, after the tour groups have left. As the sun sinks lower, shadows spread across the courtyard. After sunset, the sky turns pink. The grey stone towers take on a golden color before turning pink. Nowhere else in the world can there be such a quiet, beautiful place.

An idea that started in Seattle"s public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The idea is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.
In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起)the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.
In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.
The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致)can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.
As Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.
小题1:What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?
A.To invite authors to guide readers.
B.To encourage people to read and share.
C.To involve people in community service.
D.To promote the friendship between cities.
小题2:Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?
A.They had little interest in reading.
B.They were too busy to read a book.
C.They came from many different backgrounds.
D.They lacked support from the local government.
小题3:According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?
A.In large communities with little sense of unity
B.In large cities where libraries are far from home
C.In medium-sized cities with a large population
D.In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached
小题4:The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean       .
A.exchanged ideas with each other
B.discussed the meaning of a word
C.gained life experience
D.used the same language
小题5:According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by        .
A.the careful selection of a proper book
B.the growing popularity of the writers
C.the number of people who benefit from reading
D.the number of books that each person reads

For many businessmen online education has been a dream.Now it has come true.The investment (投资) in higher education, whether financial or in terms of time, has long been impossible for many of them.But well-known educational institutions have chosen to deliver an internet-based program, and these barriers(障碍) have been lifted.
