For example, the average height of a man could possibly have been a unit of measurement. In fact, some of the units used today in English-speaking countries are based on such things as the distance from a mans elbow to the tip of his middle finger or the weight of a grain of wheat.Because there have been so many differences in weights and measures used in different countries, an international system has been urged. One such system has been used by all countries of the world, it is the metric system.This is a system worked out by a committee of scientists appointed in France in l789. The English-speaking countries are almost the only ones that do not use the metric system in their measures. However it is used in scientific work even in those countries.The metric system is based on a measure of length called the “meter”. This is approximately (近似) one ten-millionth of the distance on the Earths surface from pole to equator, which is about 3937 miles.The metric system is based on 10 as is our number system so that each unit of length is 10 times as large as the next smaller unit. There are square and cubic units for measuring area and volume which correspond to the units of length.The unit of weight is the gram, which is the weight of a cubic centimeter of pure water. The liter is a measure used as the quart is used, but it is a little larger. The hectare, which is10, 000 square meters, is used as the acre in Britain, but is 2.471 acres. The metric system is more convenient to use than the English system because its plan is the same as that of our number system. Here are some equivalents for the metric and English systems：one foot equals 0.305 meter; one inch equals 2.540 centimeters; one mile equals 1.609 kilometers; one quart(liquid)equals 0.946 liter.36. Metric system should be used in the world because _. A. man measured the distance which is based on the distance from a mans elbow to the tip of his middle fingerB. the English-speaking countries used their own measurementC. scientific work needs a unit of measurementD. it is based on the weight of a grain of wheat an informal measure of weight is used today37.

Their opinions mainly fall into two groups. Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music brings us relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy. On the other hand, some students disagree. In their opinion, they cant get the expected result from listening to music, as the break between classes is too short. What is needed during the break is peace instead of noise produced by the music. In addition, in class some students are still lost in the music they have heard during the break. In my opinion, playing some music during the break is necessary, especially after the second period in the morning. And if we play some light music or some pop music that is not so noisy, it will be more popular with us students. Here, Id like to listen to your opinion. Yours, Li Xiang
