UGG boots became popular among shearers (剪羊毛的人) in the 1920s.The shearers sheared the sheep and grabbed a bit of dead sheep, wrapped it around their feet and called them “Ugly Boots”. Good old Australian slang shortened Shearers Ugly Bo
10、ots to UGG boots. Thus UGG Boots date back as far as the 1920s in Australia.UGG boots became so popular because of the amazing amount of comfort they bring to the feet. The sheepskin is made incredibly soft so the boots are warm and comfortable. UGG boots felt more like socks than shoes, yet they ar
11、e tough enough for outdoor wear.Our UGG boots are handmade with Australian sheepskin of the highest quality by our factory of UGG Original Pty Ltd.We can wear UGG boots in cold weather or summer.

15、shion(时尚) shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fa

The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.“China is impossible to overlook,” says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means C
17、hinese women are not just consumers of fashion they are central to its movement.” Of course, not only are todays top Western designers being influenced by Chinasome of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Alba
18、z, Marc Jacobsand beating them hands down in design and sales,” adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. “The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers,” she says. “China is no longer just another
19、 market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about Chinaits influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.”24What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?
20、AIt promoted the sales of artworks.BIt attracted a large number of visitors.CIt showed ancient Chinese clothes.DIt aimed to introduce Chinese models.25What does Hill say about Chinese women?AThey are setting the fashion.BThey start many fashion campaigns.CThey admire super models.DThey do business a

But not everyone is grateful to teachers for keeping kids occupied (无空闲的) between August and June: Washington state representative Liz Pike has written a F
23、acebook post, titled “A life in the day of a WA state representative,” and responded to teachers complaints of rising costs of living. The post has received criticism for being anti-teacher. After reading her post, I feel that Liz Pike should rethink her criticism of public school teaching and avoid
24、 comparing it to the private school.Many of us teachers would certainly like teaching to be more like the private school. We see nothing wrong with fair pay for fair performance. In fact, performance is the name of the game. With standardized testing popular throughout K-12 education, teachers are s
25、ome of the most analyzed and performance-measured employees in the United States. Liz Pike is very angry that teachers want raises even while test scores are dropping. Well, how are we supposed to have discipline (纪律) in the classroom when our hands are tied and we can hardly do anything with naught
26、y students or fail students who are not prepared to move on to the next grade?Teachers would love to be able to turn education around and improve student performance. But we cant, and we should not suffer for it. Unlike private school businesses, public schools cannot turn away “customers”. A privat
27、e school business serves customers who walk through the door of their own free will, while public schools have to educate students who only attend because courts say they must.She says those who are “uninspired” by a lack of a cost of living increase should give up teaching. Is this the message that
28、 she thinks should be sent to the students whose academic performance she claims (声称) to care so much about? That “if you love it youll shut up and not stand up for yourself”? I think teachers should stand up for themselves and I also think supporting teachers can make teachers teach children how to
29、 stand up for themselves.28What is Liz Pikes opinion?ATeachers shouldnt ask for a pay rise.BTeachers should be treated equally.CTeachers should accept public criticism.DTeachers shouldnt give students much homework.29What problem do teachers in public schools face in the authors opinion?ATheir perfo
30、rmance is not measured.BThey are under the control of a system of rules.CThey cant master the correct teaching method.D.Many schools are becoming private.30The underlined word “customers” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _.AstudentsBteachersCclever businessmenDprivate schools31It can be inferred fr

32、r changing the television station without touching the TV.Now one American company is offering its employees a new convenience: a microchip implanted (植入) in their hands. Employees who have these chips can do all kinds of things just by waving their hands. Three Square Market is offering to implant
33、microchips in all of their employees for free. Each chip costs $300 and Three Square Market will pay for the chip. Employees can volunteer to have the chips implanted in their hands. About 50 out of 80 employees have chosen to do so. The president of the company, his wife and their children are also
34、 getting chips implanted in their hands.The chip is about the size of a grain of rice. Implanting the chip only takes about a second and is said to hurt only very briefly. The chips go under the skin between the thumb and forefinger. With a chip in the hand, a person can enter the office building, b
35、uy food, sign into computers and more, simply by waving that hand near a scanner. The chips will be also used to identify employees. Employees who want convenience, but do not want to have a microchip implanted under their skin, can wear a wristband (腕带) or a ring with a chip instead. They can perfo
36、rm the same tasks with a wave of their hands as if they had an implanted chip.Three Square Market is the first company in the United States to offer to implant chips in its employees. Epicenter, a company in Sweden, has been implanting chips in its employees for a while.Three Square Market says the
37、chip cannot track the employees. The company says scanners can read the chips only when they are within a few inches of them. “The chips protect against identity theft, similar, to credit cards.” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the chips back in 2004，so they should be safe for humans,
38、 according to the company.In the future, people with the chips may be able to do more with them, even outside the office. Todd Westby is Chief Executive Officer of Three Square Market. He says, “Eventually, this technology will become standardized allowing you to use this as your passport, public tr
