School uniforms are common in primary and secondary schools in many countries. Here’s a list of countries below.

School uniforms are used in Cuba. All students wear school uniforms with the colour as a symbol of grade level. Children also wear scarves because they are young pioneers.

Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students feel that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don’t want to go to school any longer. They became dropouts.
It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends—they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.
Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in the school bags. Child psychologists now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.
【1】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.The Trouble in Japanese Schools
B.The Problems of Japanese Students
C.The Pressures of the Students in Japan
D.Education in Japan
【2】“Dropouts” are those who ___.
A.make troubles in and out of schools
B.go about or stay home instead of being at school
C.try hard but always fail in the exams
D.lose hope and give up some of their subjects
【3】Why do Japanese students work very hard at school and feel unhappy?
A.They want to find a good job.
B.They want to pass exams.
C.They’re under pressure from their parents.
D.They’re not clever enough.
【4】Failure in examinations cause students to ___.
A.drop out of school
B.quarrel with their parents
C.go to schools opening on weekends
D.have their parents lose hope
【5】According to the passage, it’s necessary to teach students ___.
