As school budgets get smaller, a growing number of schools in the US are selling advertising space on lockers and buses and in gyms and cafeterias. It is an easy way for schools to make money. And ads may provides relief for parents exhausted by making each donations to support schools.
While parents can always turn off the television or the computer, they can’t keep advertising out of schools. This isn’t the first time the issue has come up. For example, a news program for teens has been criticized for including ads in its 12-month classroom broadcasts.
Parents groups successfully fought a plan by a company called Bus Radio to put music and ads into school buses.
But now things are different. Just last month, Los Angeles approved a plan to allow companies to advertise in the district’s schools. Officials say the plan could provide as much as $ 18 million for the school.
In St. Francis, Minn, school recently agreed to cover 10% to 15% of their lockers with ads. Edward Saxton, a teacher in the school, say, “So far, parents are accepting this as a way to bring in needed money. The money pays for programs like arts, sports, and music. Parents don’t like to see programs getting cut. Neither do I.. Besides, schools are thinking about the effects on kids all the time.”
However, Susan Linn, an educational experts, says, “Kids have already seen enough ads on TV, in magazines and on products they use daily. School is no place for advertisements at all.”
Reader, what about you？ Would you rather help run yet another school fundraiser, or expose your child to ads on lockers and buses？ Is keeping ads out of schools worth raising taxes, or increasing your own cash support for schools through donations？
47. Why do schools allow ads into schools？
A. To reduce parents’ burdens.
B. To solve their finanical problems.
C. To offer kids a wide choice of goods.
D. To improve their students’ living conditions.
48. Edward Saxon thinks that _____.
A. schools choose ads carefully
B. ads in schools should not be too much
C. shcools should be a place free from ads
D. in-schools do no harm to young kids.
49. What is this passage mainly about？
A. The negative efect of ads on kids.
B. Efforts to stop in-school advertising.
C. Whether ads should be allowed in schools.
D. Whether Parents should run fundraisers for schools.
50. Who are intended readers of the text？
A. Parents B. Teachers C. Educators D. Businessmen
2 Our studies of sexism in America's education system have praised private single-sex schools because they offer the promise that education can transform. the future of girls. Girls who attend these schools speak more freely in class, are more likely to major in math and science, and perhaps most encouraging, are more likely to attend college and graduate school.
3 So, given our past support for single-sex schools, you might expect us to be real cheerleaders for the new Bush administration plan.
4 But we are not cheering.
5 There is a right way and a wrong way to explore educational innovation, and the Bush administration has chosen the latter. Congress and the public should stop it before the real problems begin.
6 The No Child Left Behind Act promises to avoid fads and to build educational programs based on scientific evidence and research. But, for public single-sex education, the Bush administration has decided we can skip the evidence. This proposal ignores sound educational policy, and is particularly troubling considering that the effectiveness of single sex education in public schools—which involve different factors from private schools—has yet to be carefully studied.
7 What we applauded in private single-sex schools was not their gender uniformity, but their educational practices. Many educators, including us, attribute much of the academic successes of these private schools to their smaller class sizes, engaged parents, well-trained teachers, and strong academic emphasis. Other educators believe that single-sex schools work less well for boys than for girls, or that only boys from low-income families benefit. Still others believe such schools may intensify gender stereotypes and homophobia. But so far, the Bush plan does not address these factors.
8 This is not the first time single-sex schooling has emerged as a quick fix. Pete Wilson, the former Republican governor of California, tried the same thing in the late 1990s, and even sweetened the pot by providing some extra funds to school districts willing to experiment with single-sex schools. A half-dozen created their own single-sex academies.
9 Did students benefit from the experiment？ It's hard to say, because—like the Bush proposal—planning and evaluation were absent. California provided no training for teachers and no clear rationale for the changes, and within a few years most of these schools returned to coeducation. There were anecdotal reports that the girls enjoyed being in an environment free of sexual harassment and classroom interruptions, while the boys' schools degenerated into a disciplinary disaster, becoming little more than magnets for troubled youth. The California experiment was a valuable lesson in how not to go about educational change—a lesson this administration has chosen to ignore.
10 What the authors of these proposed changes seem to have forgotten is that Title IX is not an educational option, it is a civil rights protection. While Title IX currently permits select single-sex classes—in physical education or to remedy past discrimination, for example—it doesn't allow schools to segregate students arbitrarily.
11 There are powerful reasons for this. Whenever groups have been segregated, the least-valued group has ended up with fewer resources and fewer opportunities. Historically that has been a costly lesson for girls (and African-Americans and the poor). The proposed changes do not require equal treatment or equal facilities, but only "substantially equal" programs. As the proposal now stands, a school could provide a single
A．private single-sex schools are welcome
B．single-sex schools involve sex discrimination
C．math and science are majors for boys and girls alike
D．the changes proposed by Bush administration are encouraging
Application files are piled highly this month in colleges across the country. (67) Admissions officers are poring essays and recommendation letters, scouring transcripts and standardized test scores.
(68) But anything is missing from many applications: a class ranking, once a major component in admissions decisions.
In the cat-and-mouse maneuvering over admission to prestigious colleges and universities, (69) thousands of high schools have simply stopped providing that information, concluding it could harm the chances of their very better, but not best, students. (70) Canny college officials, in turn have found a tactical way to response. (71) Using broad data that high schools often provide, like a distribution of grade averages for entire senior class, they essentially recreate an applicant's class rank.
(72) The process has left them exasperating.
(73) "If we're looking at your son or daughter and you want us to know that they are among the best in their school with a rank we don't necessarily know, " said Jim Buck, dean of admissions and financial aid at Swarthmore College.
(74) Admissions directors say strategy can backfire. When high schools do not provide enough general information to recreate the class rank calculation, (75) many admissions directors say they have little choice and to do something virtually no one wants them to do: give more weight to scores on the SAT and other standardized exams.

Questionsare based on the following passage:
Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of her Senate campaign this morn-ing, a 30-minute commercial that will begin airing statewide on Thursday. The spot, titled"First", uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs. Clinton' s career, while the voiceover says she is "more than a first lady. "
There is no mention of Mrs. Clinton' s rival for New York' s Senate seat, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.
Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said the ad was "positive" and "biographi-cal", instead of focusing on the first lady' s opponent.
Mrs. Clinton has previously aired radio ads, but has generally stayed with a strategy of mak-ing extensive campaign appearances instead of using television spots, while Giuliani has already run statewide TV ads.
Text of Hillary Commercial:
First she became a lawyer, named one of the top hundred in America.
Her first cause was children, fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children' s Defense Fund.
(76) Her first priority was public schools, helping to establish teacher testing. More than a first lady. For 30 years, she' s fought for children and families.
As New York' s senator, she' II fight for better schools and heath care for children.
Hillary. Put her to work for all of us.

Date: July 8,12:18 p.m.
Hello,
My name is Stacey Finley. I currently own a three-bedroom house in the Pacific Beach area that I would like to sell. I originally wanted to sell it myself, but I'm worried if I can because the hassle of working and trying to sell my house is too much for me to handle by myself.
I saw your ad in the newspaper, and I was wondering what is involved in selling my house if I use your company for help. It's somewhat short notice, but I just found out that I will be moving out of the state at the end of the year, so I would like to sell it before then, if possible.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Stacey Finley
