It’s not just women who wear skirts. Men can wear them, too. In Scotland, men wear a kind of skirt called kilt. The kilt is their national dress and an important part of their tradition.
A kilt is a colored skirt reaching down to the knees. It has checks（方格）on it with different colors, like red and blue. Each family in Scotland has its own colors.
How did the Scots start to wear kilts? There are many stories about it. One story is that the kilt was invented in the 1720s by an English factory owner, Thomas Rawlinson.
Rawlinson had a number of Scottish workers in his factory and he thought their clothing got in the way of their work. So he cut their long clothes into shorter skirts.
Today, most Scotsmen look the kilt as formal dress. They usually only wear them at weddings or big dinners. There are only a few men who still wear a kilt every day.
Scots also wear kilts in parades（游行队伍）when they play their traditional musical instrument bagpipes. The army still has kilts as the dress uniform, but they no longer use them when fighting.

A B C D

Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States .People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test . During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts .
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class .
The result is opposite to what some people think . Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight . This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch . They will gain weight instead of losing it .You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals .

A discussion (讨论)
Editor: Today our topic is part – time jobs. Are they good for school children or not?
Headmaster: Certainly not. Children have got two full – time jobs already: growing up and going to
school. Part – time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in class.
Mrs. Barrens: I agree with you. I know school hours are short, and there’s homework, too, so
children need a lot of sleep.
Mr. Barrens: Some students stay at school until they’re eighteen or nineteen. A part – time job can’t
harm them. In fact, it’s good for them. They earn(挣) their pocket-money
instead of asking their parents for it. And they see something of the world outside
school.
Businessman: You’re quite right. Boys learn a lot from part-time jobs. And we mustn’t forget that
some families need the extra (额外的)money. If the students don’t take part-time jobs,
they can’t stay at school.
Editor: Well, we have got two for, and two against. What do our readers think?
11. How many people join the discussion?
A. Two. B. Four. C. Three. D. Five.
