　　For my grandmother's 70th birthday, my family and I visited South Korea. While there, I was attentive to Korean high schools and students.

　　I was surprised by how different Korea's public high schools are from America's. Korean high schools can be all-girls, all-boys or co-ed (男女同校的）unlike our standard co-ed high schools. There are three grades: “go 1（10th) ”， “go 2” (1l th) and “go 3” (12th). “Go”is the first syllable of the word “go-deung –hakkyo”, which, simply translated, is “high school”.

　　In America, unless you want to go to a private school, you don't have to take an entrance exam. In Korea, however, students must take a test to get in because of the many choices of schools.

　　Another difference I couldn't help but notice was the students' appearance. With very few exceptions, all wear uniforms. A name tag (標(biāo)牌)with the student's name, grade and homeroom number must also be worn. Girl's skirts can't be above the upper part of the knee, and it is forbidden to dye (染)your hair or wear accessories (裝飾品)except small earrings. There are strict regulations for appearance to achieve neatness, and it seems the only freedom students have is with their choices of hair style, socks and shoes.

　　The final difference was the setup of the classes. There may be 40 students in a classroom, but the number can be less or even more, depending on the population of the town or city. Although there are many students per classroom, they are very close, which I think is a result of not changing classrooms for different subjects. There are no levels in the subjects and the teachers are the ones who switch classrooms. They just have ten-minute breaks between subjects. In each class, students are ranked by their grades. This causes strict competition, and Korean students do a lot of studying. To help them, all schools have extra study classes after school. One other fact that helped me appreciate living in America is that Koreans have school on Saturdays. Although it's only a half day, I think I speak for most Americans when I say we could never imagine ourselves in school on a Saturday.

　　Korea's public high schools are clearly different from America's. I had imagined them to be just like our schools, but now I have a clear picture of how different they are.

　　59. How many main differences are mentioned between Korea's public high school and America’s?

　　A. 3.

　　B. 4.

　　C. 5.

　　D. 6.

　　60. It seems that the writer

　　_______ .

　　A. is familiar with the education system of high schools in Korea

　　B. is fond of Korean students' appearance

　　C. prefers the high school life of America to the one of Korea

　　D. feels it common to have lessons on weekends

　　61. What does the underlined word "setup" in paragraph 5 probably mean?

　　A. Arrangement.

　　B. Size.

　　C. Number.

　　D. Outline.

　　62. According to the rules, the students of Korea can _______

　　.

　　A. go to different high schools without exams

　　B. wear any clothes except uniforms at school

　　C. attend different classes as they like

　　D. have different hair styles

　　Last week, we explained that the planet Mars has passed “opposition. ”It passed a point opposite the Sun. This week, we tell about the planet’s surprising motion(運(yùn)動(dòng))among the stars.

　　For thousands of years, people have recognized that planets travel among the stars. The planets generally follow the path taken by the Sun through the sky. The Sun’s path is called the ecliptic. The groups of stars along the ecliptic are called the Zodiac.

　　The motion of the planets can be confusing at times. Everyone knows the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. But this is caused by the turning motion of the Earth. Planets generally move from west to east.

　　However, Mars will appear to move backward for about two months this year. This happens because the Earth is overtaking Mars on its way around the Sun. Mars began its backward, or westward, motion on May 11th, It will start moving eastward again on July 19th.

　　Mars’ apparent motion has been a mystery to astronomers for hundreds of years. Most early theories of the solar system argued that the Sun and planets turned around the Earth. But the sudden westward motion of Mars presented a problem. Why would Mars move west for two months when it nears “opposition”?

　　In 1543, a Polish church worker named Nicolas Copernicus published a different theory. His theory said the Earth and planets moved around the Sun in perfectly circular orbits. Copernicus’ theory was simpler. But his Sun – centered system still did not explain the observed motion of Mars very well.

　　Finally, a German mathematician named Johannes Kepler published a complete theory of the motion of the planets in 1619. He had carefully studied the motion of Mars for many years.

　　Johannes Kepler discovered that the planets do not move in circular orbits around the sun. Instead, they travel in flattened orbits called ellipses. Mars’ elliptical orbit is the cause of its unusual brightening this year and its apparent large size.

　　During the next several weeks, you can see for yourself why the mysterious motion of Mars has caused so many people to wonder.

　　63. From the passage we can learn that

　　.

　　A. the sun and planets generally travel westward

　　B. Kepler studied the orbit of the planets in 1619

　　C. Copernicus’ theory well explained the motion of Mars

　　D. the Earth’s turning motion causes the sun to rise in the east

　　64. On July 19th Mars

　　.

　　A. will pass the “opposition” B. appears to change its direction again

　　C. will begin to move westward D. appears to change its orbit again

　　65. Why does Mars appear to be bigger and brighter when it passes “opposition”?

　　A. It is overtaking the earth. B. It follows the path of the sun.

　　C. It moves in an elliptical orbit. D. It travels in a circular orbit.

　　66. What is the best title for the passage?

　　A. The Recent Research into Mars

　　B. The Surprising Motion of Mars

　　C. The Great Discovery on Mars

　　D. The Wonderful Mystery of Mars

　　I have been passionate about sewing and fashion design since I was 12. Two years ago, I designed and made a set of outfits from recyclable materials for a charity fashion show. Through this highly meaningful and profound experience, I became aware of the importance of protecting and preserving our environment when designing and making fashion items, resulting in my founding an organization to promote eco — friendly, design and fashion.

　　My interest has led me to research areas of fashion that have environmental implications. For example , some popular clothing stores have announced marketing policies designed to improve the environment. For those of us who are eco - conscious, it is responsible for us to evaluate whether such policies are just a marketing promotion, or represent great efforts to protect our environment.

　　Three chain - stores, H&M, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21 ,have been promoting "green" items. After I examined their products,! have concluded that H&M and Urban Outfitters are truly helping the environment with their efforts, while Forever 21 seems to be using the "go green" trend as a way to sell more products, rather than genuinely help the environment.

　　Of these three stores, H&M has the most extensive eco -fashion plans. It is already well on its way to carrying out its plans by increasingly mixing organic cotton into their garments, as well as putting fully organic cotton items on the market. The store also belongs to the Organic Exchange Organization, which approves of growth of organic cotton. To reduce the harm from non - organic cotton production, H&M is involved with the Better Cotton Project. Mindful of the unfavorable effects of climate change, the store aims to minimize transportation and energy usage. H&M labels their eco -friendly products with an official symbol, the Flower, to represent a production system that is less harmful than most traditional processes. Because of these actions and policies, H&M is already well on its way to making a difference on the environment.

　　With its Urban Renewal brand, Urban Outfitter takes a different approach than H&M in promoting eco - friendly fashion. The brand features women' s clothes made from strictly environmentally -friendly sources, such as vintage, dead stock, or surplus clothing. Urban Renewal produces fashionable garments, and embraces being eco - friendly through recycling.

　　Unlike the other two stores above, Forever 21 ' s eco - fashion efforts fall short; some people would say their message is thoroughly misleading. It promotes the "green" image, and yet many of their supposed eco -friendly products do not help the environment. For example, it sells a "Think Green Tote" that, according to the site, is meant to "send an environmentally friendly message. " However it is made of 100% non - organic cotton which is one of the most damaging fabrics to the environment, mostly because it requires greater chemical intervention compared to organic cotton. Also, the "I Love My Planet Tote" is supposed to "make a positive statement," but is also made of 100% cotton that is not organic. The only tote that is environmentally - friendly is the "H81 Organic Cotton Tote" from Forever 21' s Heritage brand, made from 100% organic cotton. Now that Forever 21 has portrayed itself as being "green," it should start "walking the walk. "

　　67. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means ____.

　　A. all the customers are trying not to walk into the Forever 21 to buy products

　　B. the Forever 21 has already been on its way to transform its negative image

　　C. the writer publicly urges the Forever 21 to put its campaign into practice

　　D. the environmental problem is so serious that we should pay more attention

　　68.

　　Which of the following supports the author's opinion?

　　A. The author' s environmental awareness comes from his shopping experiences.

　　B. None of the three stores makes a difference on the ecological protection.

　　C. Someone uses the "go green" trend just as a trick to make more profit.

　　D. It is still a very long way before we humans will use real green products.

　　69. The passage is developed by ____.

　　A. showing cause and effect

　　B. giving concrete figures

　　C. making comparison and contrast

　　D. using time order

　　70. Which of the following statements can be the best title?

　　A. Does the Trend of Eco - Friendly Help the Environment?

　　B. Green Products Are Common in Fashion Stores.

　　C. A Survey of Eco - Friendly Design on Fashion Markets.

　　D. Are Chain Stores in Fashion Really Going Green?
