13、cal Science and Law .Cars will become a necessary part of many peoples lives in the coming years , and its difficult to get a permit out of campus because of the pressures on working peoples time. “Having a full-time job after graduation offers limited time to learn to drive .

Soon he met other European immigrants, each of them trying to find his or her own way .If they could do it, why couldnt he? “
20、Stand straight, stand tall,” he would remind himself.Thanks to the help of a loyal and trusting friend, my grandfather gained a jewelry booth on Canal Street, New York City .He once told me how nervous he was on that first day of work.

27、I think machine power is better than human power because we cannot survive without our daily used machines like bikes, coolers, computers, etc.Started on 14-Apr-2008 By SmithE-mail: Johnson6-May-2008 Yes, its very clear that machine power is better than man power. But machine power has its limitatio
28、ns (局限). It cannot survive without electricity and manhandling. If it doesnt have these two then it is completely useless. So man should not completely depend on machines. One more point is that because of the use of machines man has become lazy. This laziness has brought in many problems like obesi
29、ty, arthritis (关节炎) and other health problems. But I am not saying that man should completely turn from ma-chine power to man power. He should have a balance of both. Even I cant think of life without a car, a computer and a cooler.Sally79-May-2008 Humans only created the machines. So, human power i
30、s greater than machine power. To do the things quickly we created the machines. But machines cannot think. That thinking power beats machine power.Tina17-May-2008 But without humans there is no value of any machine. If someone wants to use his machine perfectly then one must have expert labor or man
31、 power.Tommy19-May-2008 Hi to all, my opinion is that human power is more powerful than machine power, because human beings created the machines. Human brain works more com-pared to machines.Mike20-May-2008 I think human power is better than machine power because even if we travel on foot to near pl
32、aces the money will not be wasted and we can get exercise.28. Who agrees with Smith generally?A. Tommy. B. Tina. C. Sally. D. Johnson.29. According to Johnson, man should _.A. keep a balance between human power and ma-chine powerB. completely depend on machine powerC. turn from machine power to man

35、rms if they attend religious or other private schools. Most public schools do not require uniforms. But over the last ten years or so, more of them have moved in that direction, including high schools. Another option is that students may just have to dress alike for example, white shirts and dark co
36、lored pants or skirts. Even schools that do not require uniforms generally have a dress rule about what they consider acceptable. Schools commonly forbid clothing that shows images or words causing displeasure, or simply too much skin. Hats may be forbidden because, for example, different colors may
37、 be connected with bad guys. Some parents like the idea of uniforms. Some say it means they do not have to spend much on clothing for their kids. Others, though, argue that uniforms represent an unnecessary cost. There are also debates about whether uniforms or other dress rules go against civil rig
38、hts. Students and parents have taken legal action against school dress requirements. At the beginning of this July, a middle school was asked to stop its dress rule unless families have a way out of it. The American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California brought the case for the families of se
39、veral students who had been punished by the school. Most attention centered on a girl who wore socks with the Tigger character from Winnie the Pooh. The school said its clothing policy, including no pictures of any kind, was needed to control a growing problem with gangs. The families argued that th
40、e policy went against free speech rights as protected by the United States and California constitutions (宪法). The United States Supreme Court says student expression is protected as long as it does not harm the work and the rule of a school. But some educators 9believe dressing alike helps improve s
41、tudent learning. They believe that uniforms help create a sense of unity and reduce the risk of fights. They also say uniforms make it easier for security reasons to tell if someone belongs to the school or not.32. According to the passage there is a trend in the USA that _.A. most public schools do
42、 not require uniformsB. most public schools move in the direction of requiring uniforms at churchC. most schools require the students to be dressed in white shirts and dark colored pantsD. more and more schools have a dress rule about what are suitable for schoolchildren33.

43、 NOT a reaction mentioned to the dress rule?A. Some parents like the rule which means they could spend less on clothing for the kids.B. Some parents think the rule has nothing to do with them.C. Some parents say that uniforms are an extra cost for them.D. Some others argue that uniforms or other dre
