Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low that you can see their underwear?What do you think of that?Fashionable?Some of today’s teenagers are big fans of such a look.But recently this trend has been at the centre of an argument in Italian middle schools.

The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low—rise jeans that expose underwear and parts of the body.His request came after a class trip.when he saw one boy’s baggy trousers slide to his feet.He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for schoo1.

But in Italy,a nation that takes fashion very seriously,the suggestion caused a debate among parents.teachers and students.The issue is whether the head teacher’s request will limit students’ freedom—or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual(随意的).

A parents’group praised the proposal in favour of good taste,while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.

“We do not want to kick fashion out,’’ the headmaster explained.“But extremes of fashion like this are not right in schoo1.”Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.

Most students have simply ignored the request.Ludovica Gaudio,14,wore extremelv low trousers exposing orange underwear in class.It was cold,so she wore a matching orange scarf(围巾).Another 14-year-old said she should probably respect the request,simply for practical reasons.”I don’t really feel comfortable in those sort of jeans”,said Sarah Lattanzi.”In winter,when dressed like that,it’s quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.”

Camping goes back to trendy in the UK.With students and parents tightening their belts in the face of tne global economic crisis,the overseas holiday tourism around the world is suffering a lot.For many young Brits,during uncertain times,cheap,traditional and homemade altenatives are the choice.

A lot of these people are developing a particular taste for camping holidays.The Camping and Caravanning.Club is reporting a 40 percent increase in booking this year,as well as an increase in new membership applications.

Campsites in the UK generally fall into two categories:holiday parks and wild camping.

The holiday parks are usually large,and accept earavans(旅居车)and tents and have many facilities,from swimming pools to laundry services to bars and shops.For example,young people can find much fun in the Wild Boar Inn campsite in Cheshire.northwest England.There’s live music every Saturday,with 60s,70s and 80s-inspired acts for an evening of laughs.These places are good fbr young Britons to get social.And it’s cheap,only around 5 pounds for entry and people can use all the facilities.

For others,the beauty of camping is in enjoying nature and tranquility(宁静),so a wilder camping experience is also attractive. These people choose anywhere remote,with no light or noise po11ution.The campers often choose relatively small campsites.For example,the Highlands of Scotland.and Danmoor in southern England.

If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago,we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each dav.we should be able to give an answer to the question.

It 1s the same in history.Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country.but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write.For example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago,because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them.But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in Central Africa,because they had not learned to write.

Sometimes,of coures,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the past.They have heard about it from older people,and often songs, dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung,acted and told for many generations,for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past.This we may call”remembered history”.Some of it had been written down. If is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history,is,because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing.But where there are no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful.

1.Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?

A.“Remembered history”,compared with written history.is 1ess reliable.

B. Written records of the past play a most important role in our learning the human history.

C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to remember the events that happened in the past.

D.Where there are no written records of the past.there is no history.

2.Why do we know little about what happened in Central Africa 200 years ago?

A.There was nothing worth being written down at that time.

B.People there had not known how to write in those days.

C.The written records were perhaps destroyed in a fire.

D.People there ignored the importance of keeping a record.

3.”Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when     

A.it is written down               B.it proves to be true

C.no written account is available D.people are interested in it

4.It can be inferred from the passage that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if our ancestors had   

A.kept a written record of every past event

B.not burnt their written records in wars

C.told exact stories of the most important happenings

D.made more songs and dances

You don’t expect your child to grow up to be a heroin addict.From the moment of her birth, you have hopes and dreams about the future,but they never include heroin addiction.That couldn’t happen to your child, because addiction is the result of a bad environment.bad parenting.There is most definitely someone or something to blame.

That’s what I used to believe.But after failed rehab and long periods of separation from my heroin-addicted daughter,after years of holding my breath,waiting for another relapse,I now believe  there is no blame.

After Katie admitted her addiction.I struggled to understand how this could have  happened to my daughter—a bright,beautiful,talented and most importantly,loved young woman.When the initial shock wore off,I analyzed and inventoried all the whys and hows of Katie’s addiction.I searched for someone or something to blame.I blamed her friends.I blamed her dad.I blamed our divorce.But mostly, I blamed myself.My desperate heart convinced me that I should have prevented Katie’s addiction.and that given another chance.I could correct my mistakes.

When Katie came home from rehab.I approached each day with the zeal of a drill sergeant. I championed the 12-step program and monitored her improvement daily as though curing heroin addiction was as simple as nursing a cold.I drove her to therapy sessions and AA meetings. I controlled everything and left nothing to chance. But in spite of my efforts,Katie didn’t get better.She left my home,lost again to the powerful grip of addiction.

In the long days,weeks and months that followed,I gathered bits and pieces of old beliefs and tried to assemble them into something whole.Sometimes I gave up.and sometimes I simply let go,Gradually, my search for blame changed to a longing for hope.I comforted myself with the only thing that still connected me to my daughter:love.

I thought about Katie every day,and I missed her.I cried.and worried about her safety and whereabouts. I wrote letters I knew she’d never see.Sometimes I woke up panicked in the middle of the night, certain that mother’s intuition(直觉)was preparing me for something bad.But through it all,I loved her.

I don’t know why or how my daughter became addicted to heroin:I do know that it doesn’t really matter.Life goes on and Katie is still my daughter.

Katie and I meet for breakfast on Friday mornings now.We drink coffee and talk.I don’t try to heal her. I just love her.Sometimes there is pain and sorrow,but there is no blame.I believe there is only love.

1.The reason why the daughter became a heroin addict was

D.the mother didn’t live with her daughter later
