21、The debate on whether uniforms must be worn in schools causes different opinions and viewpoints from parents, school teachers, and policy-makers.
Fact: Imposing uniforms on children infringes their constitutional rights.
The United States Constitution gives every person the right to express himself freely. By imposing uniforms on children, schools take away this right from them.
Fact: Uniforms do not take care of the whole clothing needs of children.
Uniforms may be cheaper than branded or designer clothing, but they are no way cheaper than street clothing. Uniforms alone do not take care of all the clothing requirements of kids. Along with uniforms, you need to buy clothes to wear after school as well as on weekends. So this imposes an additional expense on parents. With normal clothing, parents have an option to buy from discount stores, used clothing store etc., to save a considerable sum. Uniforms are found only at select stores, with a fixed price, which can be a real pain for low-income families with several kids.
Fact: Uniforms cannot prevent the need for implementing (执行) formal dress code in schools.
Dress code implementation can never be clear. Students can always find ways to tweak (扭) the code as per their taste. Students may still find ways to stylize their school uniforms. For example, they may roll the skirt to make it shorter. It is simply impossible to prevent the students from displaying their personal taste even in uniforms.
These were some facts against school uniforms. We, as a society, and as a country, are looked upon as one of the most liberal and diverse in the world. Some of our greatest achievements and innovations have been as a result of the strong values of individuality and expressiveness, and we need to ensure that we are not decreasing these virtues.
【1】The underlined word "infringes" in Paragraph 2 probably means "________".
A．ensures
B．protects
C．violates
D．made
【2】Students can change formal dress code by ________.
A．making their skirt shorter
B．changing the color of clothes
C．writing their personal taste on clothes
D．wearing other clothes instead of uniforms
【3】According to the passage we can know ________.
A．many people are against school uniforms
B．the facts against school uniforms are too simple
C．a country should agree with our society
D．the author doesn't support uniforms very much
【4】What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Facts against school uniforms
B．School uniforms
C．Popular school uniforms
D．Expensive school uniforms
22、Here are books including stories related to the moon.
Moon’s First Friends by Susanna Leonard Hill
Ages 4 to 8
This amazing book will introduce some interesting elements like astronauts and spaceships to your kids. This book explains how the moon always stays up in the sky, from where it could witness everything happening over the earth and the life here, but it does not have any living object on itself, which might make the moon lonely. However, the loneliness of the moon ends up one day as humans from the earth decide to send spaceships and astronauts to the moon.
Whose Moon Is That ? by Kim Krans
Ages 3 to 7
Curiosity within kids is unsatisfiable. They are going to love this story about the ownership of the moon. Children will get to learn about different animals through the story as different animals claim that the moon belongs to them along with the stars. However, the moon belongs to none, and it is there to spread light. A very important lesson about relationships and sharing is conveyed through the story.
My Little Half-Moon by Douglas Todd Jennerich
Ages 5 to 8
This book will allow your kid to use their imagination to seek the reason behind the half-moon. A little boy in the story believes that the moon is half because it lost its other half, which must be making it feel alone. Then the boy decides to stay together with the moon. This book is highly recommended for your child with the beautiful message of kindness.
A Big Mooncake for. Little Star by Grace Lin
Ages 4 to 8
There could not be a more interesting method to learn about the moon’s phases. This story is about a star baking a mooncake with her mother. However, baking the mooncake is not easy for the baby star as the moon keeps changing its shape. The book would encourage kids to get engaged in activities like cooking, and they would also get to know about the different shapes of the moon.

23、Every new parent knows, or learns pretty quickly, that rocking can calm the crying baby when it’s time to take a nap. But the benefits of gentle motion(运动)may extend past the swaddling(襁褓)stage. Because two new studies show that rocking also helps grown-ups, both human and mouse, get a good night’s sleep.
What should be no surprise is that movement can be soothing. Think of how many times you’ve fallen asleep on a train. But can motion really cause a nap, and make for a deeper sleep?
To find out, researchers invited 18 healthy volunteers for a sleepover. “So they came to the lab and they slept one time on normal beds which are motionless. And one night where they got rocked,” said Aurore Perrault, a sleep researcher at the University of Geneva in Switzerland. “And what we find is that when compared to a motionless night, a whole night of rocking sleep has a beneficial effect not only on sleep beginning but also on sleep maintenance, as we saw that they have less micro-awakening during the night.” Subjects who rocked also did better on a memory test the next morning than the stiller sleepers.
In the second study, Knostantinos Kompotis, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Lausanne, rocked a group of mice. “Whether rocking affects sleep in species other than humans was never before discussed. So the main questions for our study were does rocking affect sleep in mice and what’s the reason?”
Kompotis placed the mouse cages on a platform that moved from side to side. And though mice were rocked four times faster than their human counterparts—a frequency of one back-and-forth per second, or 1Hertz, worked best—the results were strikingly similar. During rocking at 1 Hertz, time spent asleep increased, and mice fell asleep twice as fast as at still condition.
Additional studies could allow the researchers to identify a new target for treating sleep disorders, including insomnia(失眠). Until then, you might think about adding a little swing to your night-time routine.
【1】The underlined word “soothing” in paragraph 2 most probably means________.
A．consuming
B．tiring
C．comforting
D．interesting
【2】How did the researchers carry out the first study?
A．By making predictions.
B．By doing a survey.
C．By collecting data.
D．By making comparison.
【3】What can we learn about the mice according to Paragraph 5?
A．Their sleep disorder including insomnia was treated.
B．Their sleeping time increased when rocked at 1 Hertz.
C．When rocked from side to side, they failed to fall asleep.
D．When rocked, they fell asleep four times faster than at still condition.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Rocking is Beneficial
B．Rocking Enables a Sound Sleep
C．Rocking Helps Treat Insomnia
D．Rocking Affects Sleep in Animals

25、Mice are at their best at night. But a new analysis suggests researchers often test the nightly creatures during the day, which could alter results and create ________ across various studies, if they record time-of-day information ________. Scientists assume that waking up lab mice in the daytime may twist research.
Of the 200 papers examined in the new study, more than half cither failed to report the timing of behavioral testing or did so ________. On the contrary, they found only 20 percent reported ________ testing. The analysis was published in Neuroscience & Bio-behavioral Reviews.
West Virginia University neuro-scientist Randy Nelson, the study's lead author, says this is likely a matter of human ________. “It is easier to get students and schools to work during the day than at night,” Nelson says. But that advantage ________.
“Time of day not only impacts the intensity of many ________, including mice activity, aggressiveness of their behavior, and hormone levels,” but changes in those factors can only be ________ during certain parts of the daytime cycle, says University of Wyoming behavioral neuro-scientist William D. Todd. This means that “failing to report time of day of data collection and tests makes ________ of results extremely difficult,” adds Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center staff scientist Natalia Machado. Neither Todd nor Machado was involved in the new study.
________, the study researchers say it is critical that scientists report the timing of their work and consider the fact that animals' behavioral and physiological responses can ________ with the hour. As a first step, Nelson says, “obviously, taking time-of-day into consideration seems like ________ fruit in terms of line assing behavioral neuroscience research reliability, reproducibility and rigor (严谨性)
University of Calgary psychologist Michael Antle, who was also not involved in the analysis, says such differences in how studies are run ________ a “reproducibility crisis” in science, with other laboratories unable to ________ study results. “Running a study at the wrong time,” he says, “could lead to us completely ________ a finding altogether.”
