They are a big part of our lives. But have you ever thought about the history of the schoolbag?In the Han Dynasty (汉朝), students in old-style private schools used bamboo boxes to carry books to school. People consider the bamboo boxes to be the earliest schoolbags. They were usually two or three layers (层) in the box. Kids put different things like books, brushes, ink stones (砚) and paper in the boxes.Hundreds of years later, people developed a new kind of schoolbag called the budai, or the hip-pocket. The budai was lighter than the bamboo box. With the founding (成立) of the Peoples Republic of China, military rucksacks (军用帆布包) became popular. Many people carried them when they were in school. Ask your grandparents or parents about these bags. Maybe they can tell you about their experiences of carrying them when they were in school.A new style of schoolbags has appeared in recent years. Many of them have colorful and fashionable designs (时尚的设计) on them, such as pictures of cartoons or pop stars. And they are more comfortable to use. Some students pull wheeled bags filled with heavy textbooks and others carry backpacks.Schoolbags are still changing. Can you imagine what future schoolbags will be like?（1）Schoolbags in the Han Dynasty were made of _. A . clothB . paperC . plasticD . bamboo（2）Which is NOT true according to the passage? A . Military rucksacks were popular in the 1950s.B . The budai was heavier than the bamboo box.C . There are some pictures on the new style of schoolbags.D .

A . to tell us how to use schoolbagsB . to explain why we use schoolbagsC . to introduce the importance of schoolbagsD . to introduce the development of schoolbags18. （8分）阅读理解 Education cuts(削减) have become routine(惯常的) over the past few years, which has made it difficult for students to learn. The results of a survey of 1,850 Los Angeles County high school students show just how much the cuts are affecting students.Because of teacher layoffs(解雇), class sizes at some high schools have risen to 50students even in math and English classes. Some 37 percent of students report that they sometimes, dont have a desk to sit at. Sixty seven percent say crowded classrooms make them feel the teachers dont have enough time to teach, and 30 percent say theyre not been able to join in a program because its no longer offered at their school.At a time when technology is an important skill, 52 percent of students say there arent enough computers. Or theyre often broken, and theres no one to fix them. Fifty-one percent say theyve had to share textbooks with a classmate because there arent enough copies to go around. Fifty seven percent say they had to copy information because their school doesnt have enough paper to make copies.We have only one science teacher for the entire(整个的) high school, writes Felix Ruano, a 16 year old student. He goes on describing how that teacher, who is only qualified to teach chemistry, is teaching physics or, at least, is trying to do so. He shows physics videos and we teach ourselves from our textbook, says Ruano. And, as has been seen elsewhere, all but one of the restrooms at Ruanos school have been closed because we dont have enough people to clean them.Ruano notes that though faced with the challenges, 97 percent of students say they plan to go to college. But without properly trained teachers and the best resources, says Ruano, its not likely that every student will achieve that goal. Unless schools fix these problems, he says, students could lose hope.（1）According to the text, education cuts have led to the following results EXCEPT that .
