33、t every parent can afford this, and some teens are forced to go to school in the same clothes they wore last year. The obvious differences in clothes cause differences among students. There is a simple solution: school uniforms.I know from personal experience and surveys that wearing uniforms create

34、s a sense of equality among peers.From the sixth grade until I graduated from high school, I attended a school that required students to wear uniforms. The uniform was very simple: dark brown shoes, green-brown pants, and a white shirt. The uniform left little room for any kind of selfexpression, es

35、pecially through clothes.However, I learned how to stand out by expressing myself through my personality, art, and sports. I did not know I could draw until the sixth grade. I also would never have learned of my musical abilities if it were not for my desire to find ways to express myself. Uniforms

36、taught me that I was myself, except what I wore.Uniforms also help to a much safer learning environment. I remember a particular event that happened in my junior year of high school. A man ran away from prison and wanted to hide in the gym of our school. Luckily, cameras all over the school quickly

41、imple way to measure its history and age. But what if you need to find out how old a live and healthy tree is without calling in an expert?Cutting it open to determine its age would cause irreversible （不可逆转的） damage to a live tree. But there is one quick way to determine a standing trees age and it

42、calls for a bit of math. First use a tape measure to record the circumference （周长）of the tree trunk at roughly 1.3 meters from the ground. Next, its time to determine the trees diameter （直径）.To do that, divide the trees circumference by pi （3.14）. Then, take the diameter and multiply it by the speci

43、es specific growth factor number. This is where knowing the tree species is vital.Scientists used their knowledge to uncover growth factors for each tree species. Multiplying the trees diameter by the trees specific growth factor will give you the trees rough age.Growth factors vary from two to seve

44、n and beyond. The growth factors for some of the most common tree species include: red maple: 4.5, cottonwood: 2, sugar maple: 5.5, dogwood: 7, and white oak: 5. So lefs take a red maple, which has a growth factor of 4.5, and assume it has a circumference of 22 inches. To get its age, divide 22 inch

45、es by pi to get the trees diameter 7 inches. Now take 7 and multiply that by 4.5, which is the red maples growth factor and you get 31.5, the rough age of the tree.This is a simple way to count roughly a trees age without threatening the trees health, but it doesnt guarantee 100 percent exactness; g

46、rowth factors are most exact for trees found in healthy forests. Urban trees face stressors like poor soil or limited growing areas that may affect their overall health and growth.28. What is the problem with the familiar method of counting a trees age?A. It is not exact.B. It is not suitable for a

47、living tree.C. It needs the help of an expert.D. It takes too much time.29. What is the most important in calculating the age of a live tree?A. The tree species.B. The growth speed of the tree.C. The height of the tree.D. The living environment of the tree.30. What is the age of a sugar maple 6 inch
