In order to help students developing their abilities in all fields, our school now has asked the teachers to make some change in the grading system.The students’ final score will be made up of 5 parts. About 30% of them will come from your test results. 20% comes from your notes, and other 20% is decided by how you do your homework. If you take the active part in classroom activities, you can get another 20% of the score. Teamwork in class are also important. If you want a high score, you should be good at working together with your classmates.
In my opinion, our school has made a good decision. To begin with, this new grading system has been changed the way the students' performances in school only depended upon their test results. It will also certain help to improve ourselves in many ways.

A young shoemaker left his village to make an adventure. Along the way, he found some ants, who were very sad because a bear had destroyed their house. The shoemaker helped them rebuild it, and the ants offered to return the favor someday.
The shoemaker followed his way and found some bees with the same problem as the ants. And they were very anxious. 2. The bees promised to help him in the future.
Tired and hungry, the shoemaker went on his adventure. He learned that the king's daughter was in the castle of a witch. The young man decided to rescue her.

If you need glasses to read this, you are among the majority of Chinese students. That’s because most students in China are short-sighted which means they can only see things close up and distant things will be blurry. Four-fifths of high school students wear glasses and now more and more children in primary school need glasses, too.
This epidemic of poor eyesight has two very simple causes: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours, sometimes in poorly lighted rooms, causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. And because they spend so much time indoors at school and at home, they have less time to spend outdoors enjoying the sun.
The sun, as a consequence, is important in developing good eyesight. Exposure to daylight releases a chemical in the eyes that prevents, or at least delays, short-sightedness. According to a study by Ian Morgan of Australian National University, Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school, but once they enter primary school, Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside, while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about 40 percent of Chinese primary school students need glasses, only three percent of Australian children do.
Wearing glasses may not seem like a big deal. For some, wearing glasses can even be an opportunity to make a fashion statement. But poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long term consequences. As you get older, your eyesight can worsen and lead to things like macular degeneration(黄斑变性), a condition of the eyes for which there is no cure and which can eventually lead to blindness.
With all that in mind, don’t you think it’s time to give your eyes a break? Try spending a little less time inside and go for a walk in the park, instead. It’s the healthy thing to do and your eyes will thank you for it.
1.What does the underlined word “blurry” mean?

C. unclear. D. unconscious.
2.How should the students protect their eyesight according to the passage?
A. They should study less and less.
B. They should stay longer outdoors.
C. They should wear sun-glasses.
D. They should have a longer rest in bed.
3.It can be inferred from the passage that _____ is to blame for the poor eyesight of Chinese children.
A. the ever-worsening bad weather
B. the ever-increasing burden of study
C. the ever-decreasing sunny days
D. the ever-decreasing period of study time
4.What is the purpose of this article?
A. To explain why Chinese students are poor-sighted.
B. To admire Australian children’s good eyesight.
C. To criticize the present education system.
D. To call on people to protect Chinese children’s eyesight
If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.
Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.
The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.
The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate(价钱). From then on, they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly(相应地).
With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.
In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?
1.While taking a taxi in Finland, ________.
A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver
B. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride
C. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go
D. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration(证明) before leaving without paying
2.We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland ________.
A. are mostly poorly managed
B. provide meals for any diners
C. provide free wine and charge for food
D. provide meal for only those who live in the hotels
3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.
B. The workers are always honest with their working hours.
C. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.
D. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.
4.The word “those” in the last but one paragraph probably refers to _______.
A. people who are dishonest
B. people who often have meals in big hotels
C. people who often take taxis
D. people who are worthy of trust
