In many high schools, there are strict rules about using mobile phones. If your phone rings in class, for example, the teacher will be very angry.

Every mobile phone has a ringtone(铃声). It tells you that someone is calling you. Now, there is a ringtone called “mosquitotone(蚊子铃声)”. Using it, students can receive calls and text messages(短信) in class but the teacher will not realize what is happening. How?

Mosquitotone has a special sound. Only children and teenagers can hear it. As we get older, we are unable to hear some sounds with high frequencies(频率). As a result, a child or teenager can hear the mosquitotone ringtone, but it’s inaudible to someone who is 20 or older.

But sometimes, people over 20 can hear the ringtone. One British student’s phone uses mosquitotone. In class, the student’s phone rang. The 32-year-old teacher looked at the student and became unhappy. “I heard that. You know the rule: no mobile phone in class.”

Not all the students are interested in mosquitotone. Jerry Jones, a high school student of 17, says, “Using mosquitotone too often is bad for our hearing. I may use it for pleasure, but not in class. It’s unfair to the teachers!”

What do parents think of mosquitotone? “I think it is perfect for places like movie theaters.” says Connie Neeson, 44. “Think about it. You’re watching a film and someone’s mobile phone rings. Mosquitotone is good because many people don’t hear it. However, it also has a bad influence on their study if students use it in class.”

Helping your children to read and write at home will improve their skills and confidence—it will also make them get ready for learning in the classroom environment.

There are amazing things in the world. The story about Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster, is one of the widely spread legends(传说)in the early 20th century.

On 22 July 1933, two visitors, Mr and Mrs George Spicer, were driving along the Loch Ness —one of the most famous _____ in the highlands of Scotland. Suddenly, they saw an animal on the road in front of them. Unlike any other animals that they had seen before, it had a very big body and a small head, but no legs. When Mr and Mrs Spicer saw it, it was moving towards the lake like a snake. Later on, the animal was described like a long black or green dinosaur(恐龙), and it was informally called Nessie.

Soon, stories about this strange animal and Loch Ness became famous all over the world. Now people are still interested in Nessie and many visit Loch Ness in the hope of seeing Nessie.

Some scientists think that Nessie is not a monster(怪兽) at all, but a very large animal such as a seal(海豹), or perhaps a shark or a whale. Other scientists do not think so. They think it may be something unusual that lives in the water. Anyway, they are all sure that a kind of large animal lives in the lake.
