The hotel we are staying in is cheap and very clean, which makes us feel comfortable. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the north.Tuesday, March 28thBangkok is wonderful and surprising！The places are interesting which attract many people to visit. We visited the famous market which is on the water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colourful that we feel like staying here forever, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.Friday, March 31thOur trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet lifeno computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back and we all want to stay here for a week next year.( )21 . What do we know about the writers trip in Thailand?A.

The idea may seem disagreeable at first, but considering all the positive effects coming from wearing uniforms you would be more likely to enjoy them.Teachers love school uniforms because they help provide an orderly learning environment. Having student dressed in uniforms may teach them how to present themselves in a neat and professional manner. They give students the opportunity to learn how to dress like young ladies and gentlemen. And they can focus their attention on academics rather than style.Purchasing school uniforms is easy and needs less hesitation and consideration. No matter what the schools policy is, there are only specific essential pieces to the wardrobe that are necessary, so it wont break the bank. A few wardrobe items can last a long time. Parents could also enjoy an easy morning, as it will take less time to choose a set of clothes for the school day.Students wearing uniforms will feel less pressure about what to wear or not to wear when their classmates are dressed similarly. Getting dressed before school becomes less of a chore when students are limited in their choices, so there shouldnt be any trouble about choosing an outfit for the day and getting ready quickly. Some students may not like the lack of individuality with a uniform, but some school dress code policies may offer them the opportunities to show their unique style.Uniforms today are also becoming trendier and can be seen in many areas of pop culture. Celebrities（名人）and fashion designers are using uniforms as inspiration for new looks which also appeal to students.( ) 24. Teachers think that wearing school uniforms .A. helps students put more effort into their studiesB. makes students feel less pressure in studyC. is just a tradition that students should followD. makes students lose their independence and identity( ) 25. The underlined part “it wont break the bank” in Paragraph 3 probably means .A. a school uniform should be worn every dayB. parents will have to go to the bank many timesC. purchasing school uniforms wont cost a lot of moneyD. parents who work in a bank can afford the uniform( ) 26. We can infer from the text that school uniforms .A. will be more fashionable in the futureB. are not popular with fashion designersC. were not accepted by parents in the pastD. will be designed by students themselves( ) 27. The authors attitude towards students wearing school uniforms is .A. negativeB. supportive C. doubtfulD. unclear C When I first started university I remember hearing about bone marrow(骨髓) donation during Freshers Week. Some student volunteers from a group called Marrow tried to convince me to attend an event so I could learn more about it. The word “bone” immediately made me think that donating would be a painful procedure, so I refused. Back then, there was no way I could have known three years later, I would be one of the many people that desperately need a bone marrow donor to save their lives I am currently waiting to be matched with a donor and if I am lucky enough to find a good match, it will be this lovely stranger that saves my life. I received my cancer diagnosis in June. It is only at that time that I realized how ignorant I had been about the bone marrow donation process The process of donating stem cells is actually very simple. In 90of cases donors are asked to donate their blood stem cells, the other 10will give their bone marrowLots of donors say that both these things are virtually painfree，and nothing to be scared about. Being a bone marrow donor should be something to be proud of, as every donor has an opportunity to save someones life! At the moment I know that the doctors are busy searching for a match, and I simply live every day in the hope that there will be a donor right for me. If I have an opportunity for life, I wont waste it When I was in the first year at university, I made the mistake of walking away from becoming a stem cell donor. Please dont make the same mistake that I did. There are so many people out there, including myself，who need your help；and by undergoing a simple, painfree procedure，you could have the chance to proudly say that you saved someones life( )28. Why did the author refuse to donate her bone marrow at first? A. Because she thought that donating would be painful B. Because she thought she couldnt get anything from it. C. Because she was in poor health D. Because she had known nothing about it( )29. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. The author was confident about the bone marrow donation B. The author is not concerned about others C. The author donated her bone marrow to save others D. The author is in need of the bone marrow donation now( )30. The author needs the bone marrow because she got A. fluB. high blood pressureC. cancerD. a headache( )31. The author told us her story to A. recall her painful past B. encourage people to be a bone marrow donor C. show us the experiences of her college life D. explain the cause of her diseaseD SYDNEY，Nov15(Xinhua)-Australian researchers believe parents should worry less about the amount of time their young children spend in front of digital devices Scientists at Western Australias Edith Cowan University said screen time，rather than being bad for children，could give them an advantage once they start their schoolingResearch leader Donnell Holloway said the so-called “app gap” was widening among young children based on their level of access“There tends to be an emerging trend where teachers are saying that some younger children are coming to school more school-ready,” Holloway told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) on Wednesday “Because of apps theyve been using at home，they are better prepared in areas like literacy（读写能力）， numeracy（计算能力），and the technical skills of using iPads and computersTablets and smartphones had improved digital literacy at a younger age，”she added “Before touch-screen technology，little children had great problems accessing a computerOperating a mouse and keyboard was just not within reachNow with touch-screen technology，everything is really accessible for themSo，this is where parents and children are heading to do some early learning” Holloway urged parents not to stress too much about their childrens screen time “They should relax and lose the guiltJust think about the content the children are accessing more than a certain time limit,” she said Her team found a range of attitudes among parents towards touch screens in early learning，including one family who refused the use of all technologyShelley Hill from the Australian Parents Council said official guidelines zero screen time from birth to two years old，and less than one hour per day for children aged two to five were developed before the explosion in hand-held digital devices and needed to be overhauled(彻底检修) “Theyre very out of date and they do need to be reviewed，but in general，we advise parents to be very clear and watch what their children are doing，”Hill said( )32. In the first paragraph，the author intends to convey a message that Aparents should teach their children how to develop their digital skills Bparents should co-operate with their children in using digital devices Cparents should limit their childrens time before digital devices Dparents are a bit too concerned about their childrens screen time( )33.

The underlined sentences mean Athe more time their children spend before screen，the better their future will be Bparents should stress what their children are accessing Cparents ought to be relaxed for what their children do Dparents should feel guilty for allowing their children to stay before screen ( )35. In which section of a newspaper can we read such a text?
