4.China has announced it's abolishing its one-child policy.What difference has it made,statistically speaking?
400 million births prevented
The one-child policy,officially in place since 1979,has prevented 400 million births.Parents have faced fines and other punishments for having more children.
The majority of the decrease in China's fertility rate happened in the 1970s.It dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to 2.7 in 1978.Despite the one-child policy the rate had only fallen to 1.7 by 2013.
21:28-baby deaths rate
Since the one-child policy was introduced,baby girls have become more likely to die than boys.
In the 1970s,according to the United Nations,60 males per 1,000 live births died under the age of one.For girls the figure was 53.In the 1980s,after the one-child policy became official,the rate for both was 36.By the 1990s,26 males per 1,000 live births died before the age of one-and 33 girls.The 2000s saw 21 boys per 1,000 live births dying and 28 girls.
1.16 boys born for every girl
Sexually selective abortions have been considered as a major cause of China's unusual imbalance.
Gietel-Basten,associate professor in social policy at Oxford University,says the births of many girls are not registered if parents have broken the rule by having two children,adding officials often turn a blind eye.It's estimated there are now 33 million more men than women in China.
4:2:1 families
With the ageing of China's population and the continuation of the one-child policy,a"4:2:1"home is the description given to households in which there are four grandparent,cared for by two working age parents,who themselves have one child.
By 2050,it's predicted that a quarter of China's population will be 65 or older.The predicted decline in the number of people of working age is thought to have persuaded the government to drop the one-child policy.
21.When was the baby deaths rate for both boys and girls equal?B
A.In the 1970s.B.In the 1980s.C.In the 1990s.D.In the 2000s
22.What makes the one-child policy abolished according to the passage?D
A.The decline of birth rate.B.The rise of baby deaths rate.
C.The change of family structure.D.The decline of working age people.
23.The passage sums up the one child policy byA.
A.number           B.example         C.contrast        D.a(chǎn)nalysis.

1.Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.
What to Expect
The host will provide accommodation and meals.Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week.You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.
Accommodation Zones
Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2,3and 4of the transport system.Most hosts do not live in the town Centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的).Zones 3and 4often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area.It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.
Meal Plans Available
◇Continental Breakfast
◇Breakfast and Dinner
◇Breakfast,Packed Lunch and Dinner
It's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,cereal(谷物類食品),bread and tea or coffee.Cheese,fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England.Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert,fruit and coffee.
Friends
If you wish to invite a friend over to visit,you must first ask your host's permission.You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.
Self-Catering (自助的)Accommodation in Private Homes
Accommodation on a room only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room.This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long stay student.However,it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much.
21.The passage is probably written forC.

B.foreigners hoping to build British culture

11.Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment,one that will require thousands of first-time offenders-whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit-to install (安裝) in their cars blood-alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition.The devices work like this-A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car's ignition.If the result is higher than the legal limit,the car will not start.The device also requires random"rolling retests"once the driver is on the road.
Virginia's current law requires only repeat drunken-driving offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their car.
The new law,which takes effect in July,will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times,and offenders will have to pay about﹩480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders.Such groups as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia's 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving.Ignition interlock devices,they say,reduce repeat offenses.But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.08,and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,who sponsored the bill,had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devices:"How much does a life cost?""Blowing into a tube for six months,you will remember that,"Iaquinto said."And you?re not likely to offend again."

61.The ignition probably refers to the part in a car where.D
A.the alarm goes off  B.the car is fueled
C.the key is placed   D.the engine starts
62.Who are required to install the blood  alcohol devices according to the current law?A
A.The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
B.The first time drunken-driving offenders.
C.Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
D.The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
63.Some groups support the new law becauseB.
A.the government can be financed to build roads
B.some traffic deaths and injuries may be avoided
C.lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
D.the court system is forced to work more effectively
64.The debate aroused by the measure suggests thatC.
A.justice has long arms
B.punishment is the key to all
C.no law is absolutely perfect
D.prevention is better than cure
65.According to Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,the new law isB.
A.severe  B.workable  C.unpractical  D.flexible.
