Last year，the biggest volunteer army was in the Philippines，where nearly 300,000 people took part in the clean-up．With more than 7,000 islands，the Philippines is among the countries which have the largest shorelines．
“Around every main body of water，we have a rubbish problem，”said Sheavly，director of the Center for rubbish problem．Bad weather with some hurricane affected some plans，but thousands of volunteers were ready to go，she said．

School uniforms（制服）are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That’s no surprise，because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling （標記）that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way，they will not pay too much attention to their clothing，and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms，but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers（障礙）; school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places，uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example，when a man or woman puts on a police uniform，he or she becomes，for a time，the symbol（象征）of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students，the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms，saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity”. First，as noted above，the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality （個性）. They just copy their classmates. Second，students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school，their job is to master reading，writing，and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.
61. In Paragraph 1，the word “benefits” probably means       .
A. tasks        B. messages       C. differences      D. advantages
62. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general       .
A. prevent the wearers from being laughed at 
B. help the wearers keep their duties in mind
C. are seen as a symbol of power      D. help to create social barriers
63. Some people are against school uniforms because       .
A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms
B. they believe that uniforms will make students less creative
C. they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriers
D. they think that school uniforms are too popular
64. The author would probably agree that       .
A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not
B. students’ individuality may not come from school education
C. students’ creativity is related to the clothes they choose
D. school uniforms help to create equality among students
65. School uniforms are becoming more and more popular and important because _____
A. they can stop the powerful social sorting and labeling.
B. if all students are dressed in the same way，they will not pay too much attention to their clothing.
C. uniforms can remind the wearers of their purposes and duties
D. school uniforms will affect their children’s creativity.

Directions: Read the texts from a magazine article in which five people talked about their listening habits. For questions 64 to 68, match one of the speakers to one of the following statements (A to F ) given below. Note: there is one extra statement.
Mary Taylor:
My father looked at me disapprovingly when I talked to him about ideas that he didn’t agree with. He would often interrupt me in the middle of a sentence to tell me I was wrong. As a result of the childhood experience, I had difficulty concentrating when anyone in authority talked to me. I would concentrate on how I was coming across to the other person, not on what the person was saying.
Chris More:
My father used to frown (皺眉) when concentrating on something. I thought he was angry or upset with me until I later found out that he was only thinking about what he was doing. I certainly experienced some anxiety until I found this out. When I started conducting seminars(會議), I discovered that I frowned a lot while concentrating on what the talker was saying , and the attendees thought I was being critical of them.
Janet Smith:
I constantly tuned others out (不理睬)while they were talking and I couldn’t seem to break the habit . It upset me because I was having trouble at work listening to directions and paying attention during meetings. As it happened, my mother had been a nonstop talker who ignored my needs. To keep my own sanity(清醒), I had learned to shut her out of my consciousness. I became so good at tuning her out that I generalized this behavior ------ tuning other people out as well.
Lylian Mason:
I often feel victim in my interactions with my boss. I think he is the persecutor and I’m the victim. For example, late Thursday afternoon, my boss gave me a twenty-page project with graphs and numerical tables to type and finish by Monday at 10 a.m. I didn’t listen to the time he stated when he handed me the project. Instead, I was busy figuring out how I was going to get it down and finish the other work I had on my desk.
Jack Candison:
When I am with a group of people who are interested in the subject I am covering and are receptive to me, they are open to more material and ideas. The more important the subject is to them, the more listening involvement they get into. In other words, the more relevant my material is to their personal or professional goals, the more they listen to what I have to say and the less they tune me out.
64. __________ Mary Taylor
65. __________Chris More
66. __________Janet Smith
67. __________Lylian Mason
68. __________Jack Candison
A．It’s hard for me to change my bad habit of not listening to others.
B．The heavy workload worried me so much.
C．I gave people the impression that I’m being picky (挑剔的)
D．My boss listens to me carefully.
E.My father used to ignore me.
F.People are likely to listen more attentively while the subject is of interest to them.

D．How has volunteering helped you?
E. Have you had any volunteers who quit half-way?

51.___________________
I am a member of our school’s volunteer association. During my freshman(大學(xué)一年級新生) year, I was asked to write up a plan for volunteers who assisted patients there. So I visited the hospice (末期病人療養(yǎng)所) several times. Later, I realized I could do more for the patients and so began volunteering.
52.___________________
When I was a freshman, I was not used to college life. I sometimes felt the hospice was like home. Here, many grannies treated me like their own relative, and I could feel strongly that I was needed. Just shaking hands made them come to life. I not only get great comfort from helping many patients get through the last period of their lives. I also learn a lot from their experiences.
53.___________________
You have to be prepared both mentally and physically. Most people at this hospice are facing death. So you have prepared to be patient and make them happy and relaxed. Also, persistence is needed. After seeing so many people here die, I know that persistence is hard. But you have to remember that you job is to help them feel less pain before death.
54.___________________
Good volunteers have something in common: They regard their job as a career, rather than some task that’s been assigned. They learn to enjoy what they are doing, no matter how boring it is. We have a volunteer who has been with us for more than a year. His job is translating letters from kids we helped. Even when he was busy with his classes, he would take a taxi to our office to pick up the letters. When we asked him why, he told us he enjoyed the kids’ stories and learned a lot from them.
55.___________________
Students are often very enthusiastic and direct. They give us feedback that helps us improve our work. And they value the opportunity we give them to broaden their horizons. However, they are still young and some are not responsible enough. And sometimes, they are lazy and careless.

Seventeenth-century houses in colonial(殖民地的) North America were simple structures that were primarily functional, carrying over traditional designs that went back to the Middle Ages. During the first half of the eighteenth century, however, houses began to show a new fashion. As wealth increase, more and more colonies built fine houses.
Since art of constructing houses was not yet a specialized profession in the colonies, the design of buildings was left to carpenters who were responsible for interpreting handbooks relating to the design of houses imported from England. Libraries still preserve an astonishing number of these handbooks for builders, and the houses appeared during the first three-quarters of eighteenth century show their influence. Nevertheless, most of them display a wide difference of taste and freedom of using the rules in these books.
Increasing wealth and growing experience throughout the colonies resulted in houses of improved design, whether the material was wood, stone, or brick. New England still favored wood, though brick houses became common in Boston and other towns, where the danger of fire urged the use of more durable material. A few houses in New England were built of stone, but only in Pennsylvania and neighboring areas were stone widely used in accommodations. An increased use of brick in houses and outbuildings is noticeable in Virginia and Maryland, but wood remained the most popular material even in houses built by wealthy landowners. In the Carolinas, wooden houses were much more common than brick houses.
Eighteenth-century houses showed great interior improvements over what they were before. Windows were made larger and shutters were taken away. Large, clear sheet of glass replaced the small leaded glass of the seventeenth century. Doorways were larger and more decorative. Fireplaces became decorative features of rooms. Walls were made of plaster(灰泥) or wood, sometimes were decorated with square or rectangular wooden boards. White paint began to take the place of blues, yellows, greens and lead colors, which had been popular for walls in the earlier years. After about 1730, advertisements for wallpaper styles in scenic pattern began to appear in colonial newspapers.
51. What does the passage mainly about?
A. The improvement design of eighteenth-century colonial houses.
B. The comparison of eighteenth-century houses and modern ones.
C. The structures of eighteenth –century colonial houses.
D. The roles of carpenters in building eighteenth-century houses.
52. What was one of the main reasons for the change in eighteenth-century houses in North America?
A. More designers arrived in the colonies in North America.
B. The carpenters were smart and experienced enough.
C. Bricks were more widely used in North America.
D. The colonists had more money to spend on housing.
53. According to the passage, who designed houses in eighteenth-century North America?
A. Professional designers.                             B. House owners.
C. Businessmen.                                    D. Carpenters.
54. Where was stone commonly used to build houses?
A. Virginia.               B. Pennsylvania.           C. Boston.             D. Charleston.
55. What does the author imply about the use of wallpaper before 1730?
