The recently started WARD+ ROBES program allows each teen to pick out a gown that suits them, allowing them to feel less like a patient and more like unique individuals they are.“When you cant wear what you want, you feel like youre not who you should be, or you are just your illness or youre justa hospital patient,” a teen says in a video produced by the foundation.In the video, the foundation presents the unique gowns to a group of teens at the hospital-and when each patient finds one that suits their personal style, their eyes light up.“I was amazed to watched the teens walk in their traditional gowns and get super excited that they could go to this rack(衣架)of robes and pick something that felt more like them ,”said Trevor Dicaire, senior vice president of development at Srarlight Childrens Foundation Canada.To create a wide range of designs to fit each patients style, the Foundation sought the help of creations including fashion designer IZZY Camilleri and tattoo(纹身)artist India Amara. And now that the program is up and running, the Foundation is inviting anyone to offer a design.The gowns shown in the video range from simple to complex, with patterns and materials such as camouflage, and animal print and lace.Each gown includes a tag(标签)with a very important message: Youre unique. Why should your gown be any different?”24. The underlined word “them” in Paragragh5 refers to_.A the teens B. the designs C. the foundation staff D. the gowns25. How does the teens feel about the gowns presented by the Foundation?A. old-fashioned. B. Comfortable C. Personalized. D. Ordinary. 26. Why is a tag included with each gown?A. To arouse the teens interest in helping others.B.To encourage the teens to design gowns.C. To tell the teens to enjoy the moment D. To inspire the teens to be their best.27. What would be the best title for the text? A. Do you dare to be different and unique? B. Brilliant hospital gowns help tee patients feel like themselves. C. Clothes design enlivens patients stay in hospital D. What your clothes might be saying about you.C Smartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned at school for all children under 15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including the meal breaks. “I think its a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mum Marie-Caroline Madeleine told AFP. “Its hard with kids .You cant control what they see and thats one of the things that worries me as a parent.” There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones. McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success. McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day learning but theyre not allowed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first“teachers cheered and students moaned(抱怨)，”but now they are seeing the positives(优势)。“They come to school and theyre not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said. “Its been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunch time and not look at their screen,” she said. Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesnt use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if weve done it.” Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because its important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in. “A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state-of play.”28 Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A School is for studying.B Kids behave badly nowadays.C Teachers find it hard to control kids.D Her kids depend too much on phones.29 What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A Some teachers were against it at first.B Students can now see the good of the ban.C Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.D Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.30 What does the underlined word “Chromebook” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A A book. B A notebook.C A learning website. D A kind of computer.31 What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A It will disconnect parents and kids.B It will cause kids to communicate less.C It will prevent kids being tech-minded.D It will make education go back 60 years.DIngvar Kamprad started his career as a schoolboy selling matches that he bought cheap in Stockholm and sold round his home in the forests of southern Sweden .When he died ,he was one of the richest men in the world, and IKEA , the business empire he left behind ,had graduated from matchsticks to using 1% of all the timber(木材)felled in the world.Mr Kamprad himself was famously mean with his personal expenses, at least in public, flying economy class and taking the tube to visit his shops. The paradoxes(有矛盾的情况)do not stop there. He came from a backward part of a poor country at that time but push towards modernity. His background and self-presentation were resolutely old-fashioned and Swedish, yet IKEA stands for a completely globalised brand, as much in Hongkong as in Cincinnati or Moscow. The only major markets it has not yet colonized(占据)are India and Latin America. He made great profits by selling goods for less and less : the most popular IKEA lines are far cheaper now in real terms than they were 30 years ago. His company came to stand in the minds of millions of consumers for the freedom to furnish a home in new and personal ways, but he was cruel to suppliers and at one stage one of his more popular sofas was assembled(装配)by prisoners. So he was not a saint(圣人)。However, IKEA democratized(使平民化)a certain style of good design and sold aesthetically pleasing(美观的)and durable(耐久的)furniture for little more than the cost of materials . Mr Kamprad was not the first to make flat-pack furniture, but he successfully managed to market self-assembly as a deal from which the customer benefited. That was only a small example of his wider skill, which was to make profitable deals that seemed fair to the customer. The ability to present business as a deal from which both sides gain made him one of the greatest businessmen of history.32. How did Ingvar Kamprad start his business?A . By selling wood he bought in Stockholm B. By selling goods to his schoolmatesC. By selling cheap things in Stockholm D. By selling matches around his home33. What can we learn about Ingvar Kamprad from the text?A. He never raised the price of IKEAs popular productsB. His ideas were so outdated that IKEAs success was amazingC. He was unwilling to spend his money on the pleasures of life D. He was strict with himself in order to set an example for others34. Whats the authors purpose in mentioning HongKong, Cinicinnati and Moscow? A. To show the global popularity of IKEA B. To show the wide acceptance of Swedish style C. To explain their importance to modern industry D. To explain that IKEA focuses on its development in big cities35. What was Ingvar Kamprads secret to success according to the last paragraph?A. He was the first person to invent flat-pack furnitureB. He managed to sell the win-win idea of self-assemblyC. He designed furniture in a much more fashionable styleD. He made products much stronger than his competitors第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Whether you are on top of the world or feel you are holding it up ,we all need help sometimes.
