There are over 800 boarding（寄宿）schools in the UK with students from home and foreign countries. Boarding schools started hundreds of years ago in the country. But the oldest boarding schools were set up for white, rich boys only. Now both boys and girls can go to boarding schools from the age of 7 to 18.

What to do

In the UK, boarding schools have three terms in a school year, with about 13 weeks in each term. Students study and live together. They can't go outside if they are not allowed to. In some schools, each student has his or her subject plan. Besides the usual classrooms and laboratories, the boarding schools have lots of other facilities for their students, including music rooms, boats, swimming pools, cinemas and theatres. Most boarding schools have a "light out" time. So when it's time to go to bed, all the lights in the bedrooms are turned off. There are house masters to take care of students all the time, especially after school hours.

What to wear

Nearly all the students in boarding schools wear school clothes. Boys usually wear a shirt and a tie, and girls wear a white blouse, sometimes also a tie and a skirt. As students get older, the rules become less strict.

__________________________________________________

In the UK, boarding schools provide students with delicious food. They can choose to have a full English breakfast or bread. And there is always self-service for salad, other side dishes and a dessert. Students can also make themselves something to eat at any time in a kitchen, or drink tea or have a snack between' meals.

Fresh green grass. Hundreds of colorful wild flowers. Water running into little pools. Birds making their homes in boxes. The 9, 500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look just like any other well-organized park but there’s a difference. It lies on the roofs(屋頂) of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.

Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modem city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps that's why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.

Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in the summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the "urban heat-island effect". On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below.

Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage(排水) system. ________. And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.

While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city's noise and traffic, whether you're at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block.

1.With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ______.

A.how wildlife is protected B.what to do with a spare roof

C.how to organize a good park D.what a green roof is like

2.The underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to "______".

A.raise B.control C.record D.check

3.Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?

A.A green roof is alive B.A green roof stops pollution

C.A common roof is noisy D.A common roof increases the cost

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.The Augustenborg Botanical Garden is the same as any other well-organized park.

B.Green roofs are now getting popular though they are a new invention.

C.It is worth building green roofs because it costs little.

D.Green roofs can help cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below.

5.The purpose of the passage is to ______.

A.discover the problems with green roofs B.introduce the change of green roofs

C.describe the advantages of green roots D.show the amazing beauty of green roofs
