Girls suffer more from child labor practices than boys. Many of them are forced to start work when they are only ten years old. Although the work they are given to do is often light, it is often harmful to the health. Recently, children as young as six years were found to be working in Asian factories, and the children were working from eight to fourteen hours a day in overcrowded and unhealthy working conditions. Sometimes a whole family group is employed, with the payment going to a parent or older relative. The children not only receive nothing or very little for their long hours of work, but also they are prevented from attending school. Therefore, when they become older they are unable to do any other kind of work.
The solution to the problem of child labor is clearly better laws to protect young children, greater supervision（监督）of industry and heavier fines for those who break the laws. Only in this way can young boys and girls be allowed to enjoy the most valuable time of their lives—childhood.

These "virtual" classes are not new. Many colleges and universities offer online courses where the students never meet; they correspond with their teachers and classmates on the web. Even some traditional schools add to daily classes with internet-based assignments and feedback.
There are a lot of benefits to online schooling, and that"s why public schools have started participating in this non-traditional type of education. Instead of students riding the bus, going to class, eating lunch at school, and going home in the early afternoon, they can now log on（登录）at any time of day or night and learn. This flexible online option requires just as much work and participation as normal summer school. However, the timing is different.
Online summer school is not for all students, just like it isn’t for all adults. The student needs to be an excellent reader in order to obtain as much information as possible from the lectures. In addition, students must understand computers and be self motivated（激发）in order to complete the class successfully.
If the students meet these requirements, then online summer school has many advantages. Written lectures can be read and reread until the student understands them. The students can email each other and the teacher if they need help. Students who participate in online summer school often earn higher grades because the teachers can answer more questions without slowing down the entire class progress. And because of this new technology, summer school students can still go to the beach, travel around the world, and take family vacations!
小题1:Online schooling has the following advantages and benefits EXCEPT ____.
| A．Students needn’t have as much work or participation as in traditional schools. |
| B．Students don’t have to go to school in crowded buses. |
| C．Students can have more time to understand the lessons. |
| D．Teachers and students have more time to arrange their own things flexibly. |
| A．chance of expressing opinion | B．chance of expressing wishes |
| C．right of demanding | D．right of choosing |
| A．adults or children who are too old |
| B．students who are poor in reading |
| C．those who don’t master good computer technology |
| D．students who can’t finish homework on their own |
| A．A child in the kindergarten. | B．A primary school student. |
| C．A government office clerk. | D．A child whose parents are working. |
Web conferencing is a technology that allows people to communicate more effectively over the Internet. It is an easy way of hosting and attending conferences without having to leave the office. Each of the people involved in a web conference will be posted an invitation to the conference with the time and date of the web conference on it. When the conference is ready to begin, all participants (参与者) must sit at their computer and they will be connected over the Internet.
Obviously, in doing this no fuel is used in traveling to and from a conference, and less work time is taken up in attending a conference.
Any material to be used during the web conference is simply e-mailed to all the participants before the conference. This not only saves paper but also greatly reduces mailing cost for the business.
As a conference hall or business center isn’t being used, it means that the only power that is used is the power used by the participants’ personal computers. Similarly conference organizers don’t have to arrange for food or overnight accommodation (住宿) for participants. All this means that less energy is used.
Many companies actively do many things to reduce their negative impact (影响) on the environment. So web conferencing is much cheaper and greener and more people are willing to host and attend a web conference.
小题1:What is the passage mainly about?
| A．Ways of protecting the environment. |
| B．Green benefits of web conference. |
| C．Ways of hosting a web conference. |
| D．Impacts of web conferencing on costs. |
| A．are interested in using any new technology |
| B．believe that web conferencing is more convenient |
| C．want to do something to protect the environment |
| D．haven’t enough money to hold a traditional conference |
| A．saving time | B．promoting understanding |
| C．saving energy | D．saving paper |
| A．will be e-mailed an invitation before the conference |
| B．are required to sit in the office together |
| C．will receive many paper materials |
| D．must have access to the Internet |

Until today, the Don Milani di Rivoli elementary school in central Turin was like any other. Children turned up, got out their books and pens and began the process of learning. But now, in what"s being described as a unique experiment, 60 fifth-grade pupils and a number of third-graders, will start using computers only.
The mini-laptops, which run Windows software, all have a full curriculum programmed into them. The pupils will use the computers to do all their reading and writing. Security systems within the laptops mean the children"s access to the Internet is strictly controlled. The machines weigh less than a kilogram, can be dropped from a height of 1.5 metres and are waterproof.
Instead of spending 700 dollars a year on books, the laptops, built by the Italian company Olidata, cost less than 400 dollars. One of the teachers involved in the scheme says that, for the first time, schools will be able to verify in a scientific way how a computer alone can improve the learning process. The experiment, which has the backing of parents, is due to last a year.
In other countries, such a programme is also being carried out. Venezuela is ordering one million low cost laptops for its school children. The machines will be based on the Intel Classmate laptop that has been designed for school children. Many see the deal as a blow for the One Laptop Per Child organization that has also been introducing its child- friendly machine to developing nations.
小题1: Which of the following is TRUE about the mini-laptop?
| A．It is heavy for pupils to carry. | B．It can"t be damaged by water. |
| C．It is one and a half meters high. | D．It is easily broken or damaged. |
| A．learn their lessons as an aid |
| B．have a course named computer studies |
| C．surf the Internet mainly to find information |
| D．do what they used to do with books and pens |
| A．Less than 400 dollars. | B．More than 400 dollars. |
| C．More than 300 dollars. | D．Less than 300 dollars. |
| A．It has been carried out for over one year. |
| B．It has already turned out to be a success. |
| C．The pupils" parents are against it in fact. |
| D．The pupils" parents are supportive to it. |
Nearly half of the 3 to 6 year old girls in a study by Professor Stacey Tantleff-Dunn and doctoral student Sharon Hayes said they worry about being fat. About one-third would change a physical feature, such as their weight or hair color.
The number of girls worried about being fat at such a young age concerns Tantleff-Dunn because of the potential effects later in life. Studies have shown young girls worried about their body image are more likely to suffer from eating disorders when they are older.
The encouraging news for parents is that taking their young daughters to see the new Disney film “The Princess and the Frog” isn’t likely to influence how they see their bodies.
“The media have a great effect on how young girls see their bodies. That’s why it’s important for parents to use movies such as ‘The Princess and the Frog,’ to start conversations with their children about weight, skin color and their views of beauty. They can explain that princesses’ tiny waists are not realistic for girls and that children don’t need Cinderella’s golden hair or Snow White’s porcelain(瓷制的) skin to look good,” Tantleff-Dunn said.
“We need to help our children challenge the images of beauty, particularly thinness, that they see and idolize, and encourage them to question how much appearance should be part of their self-worth,” said Tantleff-Dunn. “We should help them build a positive self-image with an appreciation for many different types of body features.” And as their children’s most important role models, parents also should avoid criticizing their own bodies.
小题1: Tantleff-Dunn worries that young girls caring too much about their appearance may .
| A．have diet trouble in the future |
| B．cause trouble when they are older |
| C．have mental problems later in life |
| D．have difficulty in communication |
| A．Having black hair. | B．Having a slim body. |
| C．Having golden skin. | D．Having big bright eyes. |
| A．encouraging kids to act as role models |
| B．preventing kids seeing beautiful models |
| C．telling kids the importance of appearance |
| D．avoiding complaining of their own bodies |
| A．explain the meaning of beauty |
| B．introduce a new research finding |
| C．stress the influence of media on girls |
| D．teach girls how to become a princess |
