Son's Help
Mr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday. A few friends of his liked gambling(赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watches and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didn't listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him.
It was New Year's Day. Mr. Lang didn't go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come.

A group of British schools are banning skirts after helplessly watching the fashion of “hemline_creep” when girls roll up skirts to show more of their legs.Rising hemlines among girls in their midtolate teens have long been a headache for schools.Now，it seems，girls who are leaving homes with perfectly proper skirt lengths manage to transform their uniform into microminiskirts by the time they get to school.
Some are so short that the headmaster of Tewksbury School in Gloucestershire said they are “almost like belts”．Obviously，they have become a bit of a distraction (分心) for both boys and male teachers.
Robert Kelly，headmaster of Berwickshire High School in Scotland，said short skirts could cause “inappropriate thoughts” among boys.And Hilary Winter，headmaster of Piggott School in Wargrave，Surrey，described short skirts as a “difficult distraction for members of staff ”．
In the town of Ipswich alone three schools have removed skirts from their approved uniform list.David Hutton，headmaster of Northgate High School，said，“Unfortunately，despite getting in touch with specific parents，sending some girls home to change，requiring others to wear a schoolowned skirt for the day and repeatedly asking others to unroll their skirts，we still had some girls coming to school in inappropriate skirts.”
“I have therefore introduced a trousersonly policy，which will enable my staff to focus their time and effort on providing students with the best education possible.”
Girls at Nailsea School near Bristol are used to a uniform ban.Two years ago，they were forbidden from wearing trousers made by the clothing brand Miss Sexy，which were reportedly too low on the hips (臀部) and too tight.“Staff were becoming embarrassed by seeing too much of the girls instead of the uniform，”headmaster David New said.“They were very low, hipsterstyle，very tight trousers.”
Now they have been banned from wearing skirts.
“We didn't want to waste any more time on it.It just means that teachers can concentrate on what's important in education，”New said.
Megan Throp，a 15yearold student at Guiseley School in Leeds，facing a trousersonly policy，told the Yorkshire Evening Post newspaper，“Our rights and freedom of being young women have been taken away because we have been forced into wearing school trousers.”
However，students are likely to find another means of adjusting dress code (着装规定)，as David New told the LA Times，“I suspect that，teenagers being teenagers，there will be a new uniform violation (违反行为) that becomes the habit，”he said.“That was true when I was at school，and I'm sure it was true when my father was at school.”
25．The underlined words “hemline creep”(Paragraph 1) probably mean ________.
A．making the trousers tighter
B．cutting off the bottom of a skirt
C．reducing the length of trousers
D．folding the bottom edge of a skirt
26．Why are skirts banned in some of the British schools?
A．Skirts are much more expensive to purchase than trousers.
B．Short skirts make it hard for teachers to focus on their work.
C．Boys are disappointed to see girls wearing microminiskirts.
D．Parents think it improper for girls to wear skirts at school.
27．What kind of feeling is expressed in Megan's words?
A．Anger. B．Surprise. C．Satisfaction. D．Fear.
28．What David New said implies that ________.
A．teachers should focus more on their work than on uniform
B．trousers by Miss Sexy were banned because they're too short
C．most teenage girls would like to be treated as young women
D．children will always find a new way to change their uniform

Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing (令人迷惑的). A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”．

When he asked again, they did the same thing—He soon found out that his students did understand.In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from.
