French children are saying “Hell” t the new academic year and “Bye” t their cell phnes during schl hurs. That’s because a new law has cme int effect which bans phne use by students up t the age f 15. The rule, which fllws a campaign prmise by French President Emmanuel Macrn, als bans tablets and smart watches.
The ban ıs als in place at break times with exceptins in cases f emergency and fr disabled children, the French Educatin Ministry said in a statement. In emergencies, students can ask their teachers fr permissin t use their phnes. Meanwhile, high schls can vluntarily carry ut the measure.
Educatin Minister Jean-Michel Blanquer said the new rules aim t help children fcus n lessns, better scialize and reduce scial media use. The ban is als designed t fight nline bullying and prevent thefts and vilence in schl. Blanquer has claimed the rule wuld imprve discipline amng France’s 12 millin schl students, nearly 90% f whm have mbile phnes. “Being pen t technlgies f the future desn’t mean we have t accept all their uses,” Blanquer said in June as the bill was ging thrugh in Parliament.
As fr carrying ut the ban, it’s up t individual schl administratins t decide hw t put thrugh the ban. Schl principals can decide t stre students’ phnes in lckers r allw them t keep them, switched ff, in their backpacks.

Sme f the wrld’s mst famus musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans t celebrate the first annual Internatinal Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Natins Educatinal, Scientific and Cultural Organizatin) recently set April 30 as a day t raise awareness f jazz music, its significance, and its ptential as a unifying(联合) vice acrss cultures.
Despite the celebratins, thugh, in the U.S. the jazz audience cntinues t shrink and grw lder, and the music has failed t cnnect with yunger generatins.
It’s Jasn Mran’s jb t help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser fr jazz, Mran hpes t widen the audience fr jazz, make the music mre accessible, and preserve its histry and culture.
“Jazz seems like it’s nt really a part f the American appetite,” Mran tells Natinal Public Radi’s reprter Neal Cnan. “What I’m hping t accmplish is that my generatin and yunger start t recnsider and understand that jazz is nt black and write anymre. It’s actually clr, and it’s actually digital.”
Mran says ne f the prblems with jazz tday is that the entertainment aspect f the music has been lst. “The music can’t be presented tday the way it was in 1908 r 1958. It has t cntinue t mve, because the way the wrld wrks is nt the same,” says Mran.
Last year, Mran wrked n a prject that arranged Fats Waller’s music fr a dance party, “Just t kind f put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is cncert music,” says Mran. “Fr me, it’s the recntextualizatin. In music, where des the emtin(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) n hw t talk abut urselves and hw smething as abstract as a Charlie Parker recrd gets us int a dialgue abut ur emtins and ur thughts? Smetimes we lse sight that the music has a wider cntext,” says Mran, “s I want t cntinue thse dialgues. Thse are the things I want t fster.”
7. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as Internatinal Jazz Day?
A. T remember the birth f jazz.
B. T prtect cultural diversity.
C. T encurage peple t study music.
D. T recgnize the value f jazz.
8. What des the underlined wrd “that” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. Jazz becming mre accessible.
B. The prductin f jazz grwing faster.
C. Jazz being less ppular with the yung.
D. The jazz audience becming larger.
9. What can we infer abut Mran’s pinin n jazz?
A. It will disappear gradually.
B. It remains black and white.
C. It shuld keep up with the times.
D. It changes every 50 years.
10. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Explring the Future f Jazz.
B. The Rise and Fall f Jazz.
C. The Stry f a Jazz Musician.
D. Celebrating the Jazz Day.
