四、阅读理解(10分)

Now I’m studying in the US, and I find there are some  differences between schools in the US and in Vietnam(越南).

One big difference is the clothes students wear at school and how they look. In my country, all the students should wear uniforms when they go to school. Boys aren’t allowed to have long hair. Girls aren’t allowed to have long or colored nails(指甲).

Another difference is about the rules for parents. In Vietnam, when we begin a new year, our parents have to go to a meeting in our class. If they don’t go to that meeting, their children won’t have a grade or a report card from school.

However, in the US, there aren’t such strict rules above.

In Vietnam, a class is only 45 minutes and we have only five classes each weekday. When the bell rings, all the students just sit in their classroom. They can’t move to a different room, but students can in the US.

In Vietnam, students can’t go to work because they can’t find a job if they’re under 18. But in the US, many students work after school. This helps them make money. More importantly, this helps them become more independent. They’re able to do things by themselves in their own way, without asking other people for help.

1. Which country is the writer’s hometown?

A. America.    B. The UK.    C. Vietnam.

2. What are the girl students allowed to do in the writer’s country?

A. To have long nails.

B. To color their nails.

C. To grow their hair long.

3. What does the underlined word “independent” mean in Chinese?

A. 勇敢的    B. 独立的   C. 依赖的

4. Which is TRUE about the Vietnamese students according to the passage?

A. They have twenty-five classes a week.

B. They can design their school uniforms.

C. They don’t get a report card from school.

5. From the passage, we can learn that       .

A. in Vietnam, the students must sit quietly and can’t move around in class

Internet is educational. Many people think children should be allowed to surf the Internet as they wish. In this way, they can look through different subjects on different kinds of websites according to their own interest. But in my opinion, children should always be watched while surfing the Internet.

Many websites have information and pictures that children should not see. There are many things that children don’t understand. All of these may have some bad influence on children’s development. Also, (1)让孩子们单独用聊天室是危险的。Many parents tell their children not to talk to strangers in the street, so they should be careful of whom their children talk to on the Internet, too. What’s more, sitting in front of a computer for a long time isn’t good for children’s eyes, so parents should monitor(监视)the time that children spend on the Internet.

(2)In a word, children should be kept away from anything that could be bad for them. I strongly believe that it is necessary for parents to watch their children when they use the Internet.

1. Is the Internet educational all the time?
