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.
【小题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

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
【小题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.
【小题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.

The United States is suffering its worst drought (干旱) in almost sixty years. The National Climatic Data Center also says high temperatures in June added to the warmest twelve-month period on record. Record-keeping began in 1895. The drought map showed that conditions improved in the Southeast in June compared to May. But the drought is expected to continue in large parts of the country. Last week, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack met with President Obama. Mr Vilsack says the drought has seriously influenced some crops, such as corn and soybeans (大豆). And the United States is the world's leading producer. 
The drought has made prices of com and soybeans increase. Both of them are used in food production and for animal feed. Last week the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization reported that corn and wheat prices increased by 20% over the past three weeks.
In the United States, farmers may quickly reduce the size of their animals rather than pay higher feed prices to keep them. That increased supply of meat would reduce meat prices in the short term. But those prices could increase in several months.
Mr Vilsack says the effect of the drought is hard to predict(预测). Some areas are getting rain, and drought-resistant (抗旱的) seeds have helped crops grow well in some areas.
【小题1】We can know the drought record of the USA has been kept for ________years of the USA up to now.

A.97 B.207
C.221 D.117
【小题2】Which of the following American presidents met with Tom Vilsack?
A.George Washington. B.Abraham lincon.
C.George Bush. D.Barack Obama.
【小题3】 If the price of a kilo of corn was 3 dollars last December, how much is a kilo of corn now?
A.2.4 dollars. B.3 dollars.
C.3.6 dollars. D.3.9 dollars.
【小题4】Why is the meat price lower than before?
A.Because there are more and more animals.
B.Because farmers kill them to save their food.
C.Because people don't like eating meat now.
D.Because the government (政府) asks the meat price lower.
【小题5】What is the best title for the passage?
A. US faces the worst drought in almost sixty years.
B. Take action to help the USA.
C. What does the country do in the drought areas?
D. President Obama meets with Agriculture Secretary.
