单选题More than 6 000 children were expelled from US schools last year for bringing guns and bombs to school, the US Department of Education said on May 8. The department gave a report to the expulsions(开除) as saying handguns accounted for 58 percent of the 6 093 expulsions in 1996～1997, against 7 percent for rifles or shotguns and 35 percent for other types of firearms. "The report is a clear sign that our nation's public schools are cracking down on students who bring guns to school," Education Secretary Richard Rile said in a statement. "We need to be tough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe." In March 1997, an 11 years old boy and 13 years old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14 years old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Kentucky. Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 13. Thirty four percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said.

单选题A Almost everyone knows the meaning of Mr., Mrs. and Miss. Mr. is used before the names of men. Mrs., is for married women and Miss is for single women. But what is Ms.? For some time businessmen in the United States have used Ms. before a woman's name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not. Today, however, many women prefer to use Ms. rather than Mrs. or Miss. The word Mr. does not tell us whether or not a man is married. Many women think this is an advantage (优势) for men. They want to be equal (平等) to men in this way. These women feel that it is not important for people to know whether they are married or not. There are some problems with Ms., however. Not all women like it. Some like the older ways of doing things. Some find it difficult to pronounce. Generally, young women like it better than older women do. It is difficult to know whether or not Ms. will be used by more American women in the future.
