The French government will ban (禁止) students from using mobile phones. Students in the country’s primary schools and middle schools will be allowed to bring their phones to school, but not allowed to get them out at any time until they leave school.

Jean-Michel Blanquer, The French Education Minister, said the ban would come into effect (生效) in October 2018.

“Some education organizations have already stopped pupils from using their mobiles,” Blanquer told RLT Radio, “Sometimes you need mobiles for teaching reasons or special situations, but their use has to be controlled in some way.”

However, there are some different voices about the ban, someone wasn’t sure if it could be followed. “This new ban makes us puzzled because we can’t find anything helpful about this ban.”

Some students from a middle school seemed not to be serious about this ban. “I don’t understand how it will work. Where will we put our phones? And how will we get them back?” said a boy. At another school, Mathilde, 12, said, “It’s unbelievable. At my school, we don’t use them in class, so what’s the problem? If anyone is caught using one in the toilet or at lunchtime, the phone will be confiscated (沒(méi)收).”

Some of the parents are not sure, either. “It’s probably a good idea when the kids are in school,” said Sabine. “But my daughter goes to school and comes home alone. He needs a phone to keep in touch with me. That I won’t worry about her.”

Anyway, the government is now studying how the mobile ban can be put into effect (執(zhí)行).

A. aren’t supposed to bring their phones to school.

B. can play with their mobile phones at lunchtime.

C. aren’t allowed to use mobiles in school.

D. can’t use mobile phones at any time in France.

2.What does the underlined word “ puzzled” mean in Chinese?

A. 興奮的 B. 自豪的 C. 尷尬的 D. 困惑的

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The French government passed the ban for some teaching reasons.

B. The ban tries to make all children stay away from any screen.

C. The ban has made some people feel puzzled and uncertain.

D. Any student in France has to follow the ban on mobile phones.

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. The ban on mobile phones has been put into effect.

B. The ban on mobile phones will meet problems when it starts in 2018.

C. All parents and students in France are against the ban on mobile phones.

D. The problems of mobile phones have been solved in French schools.

5.Why did the writer write the passage?

B. To tell us the reasons why students aren’t allowed to use mobile.

C. To describe the dangers of using mobile phones in schools.

D. To tell us the growing problems of using mobile phones in schools.

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech. 

So, you have to give a speech and you’re terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long and you bore your audience. Later you think,   “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”

Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they help you make your points clearer. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness. 

Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you canhave pleasant communication with your audience.

If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet. Give it a try and see what happens.
