      Thousands of teenagers will be able to move to a new wave of “studio schools” at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK. Twelve new-style schools are open to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs.
Under plans, schools will operate longer days and work outside standard school terms.
      Each teenager will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with business related to the school and a personal coach will be sent to the teenagers to act as a school “line manager”.
       The reforms (改革) are put forward because of the fears that too many teenagers are finishing full-time education at present but they are short of the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. According to a recent report, more than two thirds of employers (雇主) believe school and college leavers have less important employability skills, while 55% say they are unable to manage their time or daily routine. And the number of NEETs who are not in education has hit a record high, with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or a training place.
      The Department for Education will tell the public the building of 12 studio schools – providing for around 3,600 teenagers – in areas such as Liverpool, Stevenage, Stock-on-Trent and Fulham, west London. Each one will be connected to the local employers. Under plans, teenagers will be able to move out of ordinary schools to attend them between the ages of 14 and 19.
    The government said all subjects would be taught “through projects, often prepared with employers” – with rules such as science being connected directly to local engineering companies or hospitals. Schools will operate a longer day to give teenagers a better understanding of the needs of the workplace. Along with their studies, students will carry out work placements for four hours a week, rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19. They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications (专业资历) connected directly to the needs of local employers.

(1)、According to the passage, NEETs refer to those who ______.

A、often miss classes from studio school B、prefer studio schools to ordinary schools C、refuse to take any part-time job after school D、are not in education, employment or training
(2)、Compared to ordinary schools, studio schools will offer the young more ______.

A、skills to finish full-time education B、personal coaches to help with the work C、chances to get future jobs with job training D、jobs to make money without going outside
(3)、What makes the government decide to build studio schools?

A、The worry about educated teenagers short of working skills. B、The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect. C、The decision to solve the problems of unemployment. D、The increasing number of teens who drop out early.
(4)、What can be the best title for the passage?

A、Studio schools are popular in UK at present. B、More NEETs will find jobs from Studio schools C、Teenagers will get jobs without full-time education. D、Studio schools are built to improve teens' employability skills.

TikTok (抖音) is a video-sharing app that has taken the world by storm. You'll see dancing, jokes and amazing shows. Many people have found great joy in using the app. They feel relaxed when they watch the videos on TikTok after a day's hard work. However, others think it is not a good idea to use it. Some people, especially the young, have been addicted to (沉迷于) the app. They spend too much time on it. This makes them spend less time on their study or work. What's more, it is bad for their health as well. To solve this problem, TikTok has made lots of changes which are designed to protect its teenage users.

"Users aged 13—15 will not get push notifications (推送) from 21: 00, and for 16 to 17-year-olds, from 22:00. This will help them have more time on work, study, relaxation and sleep," the video-sharing app says. TikTok also made some changes that 16 to 17-year-old users will only receive messages which are good for them. "We want our users, especially younger users to develop good habits when using the Internet earlier," TikTok said.

Another change made earlier from TikTok was stricter. It was said that messages could be sent to users over 16s only. As for users aged 16 —17, if they want to send a message to others, they will need to change to a different sharing option (选择), which protects them from bad information. Besides that, before they share their first TikTok, users under 16 will be asked to choose with whom they want to share their videos.

The head of online child safety at the National Society for the the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, Andy Burrows, welcomed the new changes, saying the changes from TikTok would protect teenagers. "I think this will reduce opportunities for offenders (犯罪者) to trick children." Andy said.

 阅读下列材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

We all want to get along with our friends, family, and other people. We understand that how we act and what we say is important. For example, using polite words such as please and thank you shows that we care about other people's feelings. 

However, we don't always know the right way to act when we are angry or do not agree with others. When these happen, we just think about how angry we feel. We never remember that the problem may have started with a simple mistake, such as gossip(流言蜚语). For example, when we say untrue things about another person, we hardly know whether that person may feel hurt or angry. But they exactly do. 

Things like gossip often make us unhappy or hurt because we have feelings. Although our feelings are inside us, they sometimes show on the outside. In other words, people can see our happy face. They can hear our angry voice. We also show feelings by the way we act. 

The way we show our feelings is very important when we get along with other people. So share our feelings in clever and proper ways if we feel angry. And how? We can control them. For example, speak calmly, and don't shout. Listen politely and don't interrupt(打断). Respect (尊敬)the other person's feelings. 

Actions that hurt people make things worse, not better. So we should share our feelings, talk about what we want, and work things out with other people.

Zhi Nong was a photographer who was born in a small town in Yunnan Province. When he was young, he moved to Kunming with his mother. Feeling like a caged (笼中的) bird in the big city, he was bored with the busy and noisy city life and wanted to close to the nature.

His chance soon came. In 1983, be helped make a movie about birds. What he did before led him to take photos of flying birds.

In the 1980s, the Internet was not that popular in China and cameras were expensive. He borrowed a camera and began to study how to use it. During that time, the library have favourite place where he first read some and began to study how to use it. During that time, the library became his favourite place where be first read some magazines about nature. It opened a door to nature for him.

In 1992, a research programme was set up to protect a kind of unusual monkeys which only live in China. Usually, the home of these monkeys has half-a-year-long winters. It brought a lot of difficulties to Zhi Nong's work, but he never stopped. "I didn't see the monkeys in the wild until I went into the mountains the third time." said Zhi Nong. He went into the snow mountains six times just to get great photographs of the monkeys.

Three years later, his works won international prizes. People around the world began to notice the protection of wild animals in China. And he is the first Chinese winner of the World Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

In order to call up (号召) more people to protect wildlife with cameras, he started "China Wildlife Photography Training Camp". He hopes that more young people will join in for the nature protection.
