Of course, I love him like a brother.I have to because he is my brother.More than that, he is my twin! Thats right.Andy and Amy (thats me) have the same curly hair and dark eyes and equally stubborn characters.Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues we usually take pletely opposite positions.If I say day, you can count on Andy to say night.Just this week, the hot topic in school was all about the PTAs proposal(提议) to adopt a school dress principle.Every student would be required to wear a uniform.Uniforms! Can you imagine? Oh, they would be uniforms in color.The dress style would be sort of loose and free.Boys would wear white or blue buttondown shirts, a school tie, blue or gray pants, and a navy blue blazer(运动夹克)Girls would wear white or blue blouses or sweaters, blue or gray pants or skirts, along with a navy blue blazer.Socks or tights could be black, gray, blue, or white.The teachers are divided: Some are in favor of the uniforms, others are opposed.The headmaster has asked the students to express their opinions by voting on the issue before making their decisions.She will have the final word on the dress principle.I think a dress principle is a good idea.The reason is simple.School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day.The fact is, the less I have to decide first thing in the morning, the better.I cant tell you how many mornings I look into my closet and just stare, unable to decide what to wear.Of course, there are other mornings when my room looks like a storm had hit it, with bits and pieces of a dozen different possible clothes on the bed and on the floor.I also wouldnt mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts.And I certainly would wele not seeing kids showing off designerlabeled clothes.Andy is surprised at my opinion.He says he cant believe that I would be willing to give up my allAmerican teenage birthright by dressing likewell, like a typical teenager.Last night, he even dragged out Mom and Dads high school photo albums.What a couple of peaceloving hippies(嬉皮士) they were! “Bruce Springsteen never wore a school uniform.Bob Dylan wouldnt have been caught dead in a school uniform! If I have to wear a uniform, I wont feel like me! ” he declared.To which I replied, “So your personal heroes didnt wear school uniforms.Big deal! They went to high school about a million years ago! I feel sorry for you, brother dear.I had no idea that you are so fragile that you would be pletely destroyed by gray or blue pants, a white or blue shirt, a tie, and a blazer.”That really made him angry.Then he said, “Youre just mimicking(模仿) what you hear that new music teacher saying! ” “That is so not true.Im saying exactly what I think，” I said, raising my voice in what Mom would call “a very rude manner”. “You have always been stupid, and you know it! ” he shouted. “Is that so? Anyone who doesnt agree with you is automatically stupid.And thats the stupidest thing of all! ” I said.Fortunately, the bell rang before we could do each other physical harm, and we went thankfully to our separate classes.The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day.The results of the vote and the headmasters decision will be announced next week.I wonder what it will be.I know how I voted, and Im pretty sure I know how Andy voted.How would you votefor or against? 【解题导语】文章讲述了一对孪生兄妹， 他们之间在很多事情上意见不一致， 总是发生冲突。就最近学校的一个热门话题来说， 学校要为学生定制校服， Amy认为， 学校定制校服是很好的事情， 学生不应该穿奇装异服， 而Andy则认为， 这样不好， 学生每个人都要穿着有个性。5Amy and Andy quarrel because _Athey share a cupboardBAmy likes to show offCthey both have the word for dress principle Dthey always take the opposite views on issuesD解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues we usually take pletely opposite positions.”可知， 选择D。他们在大多数问题上意见相左。6The story is about _Aa conflict of opinions between boys and girlsBa historical event and is told in the third personCa personal experience and is told in the first personDa school policy decision that will affect parents and studentsC解析：主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知， 这篇文章讲述了一对孪生兄妹在学校是否购买校服这一事情上观点完全相反这件事， 是以第一人称所写的一件事情， 故选择C。7Amys position on school uniforms is most likely based on _Alogical conclusions drawn from her own observation and personal experienceBan emotional reaction to what she has been told by people in authorityCher preference for designerlabeled clothesDnot liking anything her brother likesA解析：细节理解题。根据文章第六段的“I think a dress principle is a good idea.The reason is simple.School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day.”以及“I also wouldnt mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts.And I certainly would wele not seeing kids showing off designerlabeled clothes.”可知， Amy的立场是基于自己的观察和经历而得出的符合逻辑的结论， 故选择A。8Which of the following is the best statement of Andys position?
