My parents decided to make a trip to Beijing. When they told me about their decisions, I was so delighted. But my mother became worried with her flower, for nobody would take care of it. Seeing the worrying expression on her face, suddenly I remembered that an article in a magazine I had read earlier. It’s suggested in the article that people used a piece of cloth to take care of their plants when you are away. On the day we set off, I found a piece of cloth and put one end of them into the basin, which is full of water, and the other end into the flower pot. Three days after, when we came back from Beijing, flower was still alive.

What to do when an earthquake happens？

Stay away from windows, inside walls and movable furniture.  72  Don’t try to rush downstairs or outdoors while the building is shaking. There is greater danger of falling bricks, glass, or staircases falling down under your feet.  73  Stay away from high-rise buildings, trees, power and telephone cables or anything else that might fall on you.

If you are driving on the road, get out of the traffic and stop on a clear road. Do not stop on a bridge.  74  Before you continue driving, look out for fissures(裂縫), breaks in the road, bumps and cracks. Try to reach an open ground if you can.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals （ITA） in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Edueation Assistance Dogs（READ）.

　 The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.

　 Last November, the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children's department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.

　 The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.

67. What is mainly discussed in the text?

　　 A. Children’s reading difficulties.　 　B. Advantages of raising dogs.

　　 C. Service in public library.　　　 　D. A special reading program.

68. Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think ______________.

　　 A. dogs are young children's best friends

　　 B. children can play with dogs while reading

　　 C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children

　　 D. children and dogs understand each other

69. By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea”, the writer means the library ____________.

　　 A. uses dogs to attract children　　　　 　 B. accepts the idea put forward by ITA

　　 C. has opened a children's department 　 D. has decided to train some dogs

70. A “pawgraphed” book is most probably_____________.

　　 A. a book used in Saturday classes 　 B. a book written by the children

　 C. a prize for the children　　　　 　 D. a gift from parents

If you haven’t heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, you’ve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.

While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highway last year. Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.

Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now, and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.

You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!

Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced by Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.

63. The first sentence in Para. 1 implies that ______. A. one may be angered by media reports and wants to avoid them

B. the media coined the term “Road Rage” only a few months ago

C. Road Rage has received much media coverage in the last few months

65. Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?

A. Talking while driving.　　　　　　 B. Driving at high speed.

C. Sounding the horn when passing.　　 D. Shouting at another driver.

66. The last paragraph is intended to _________.

A. tell people how to deal with Road Rage

B. inform people how aggressive drivers could be

C. show people how to control themselves when angry

D. warn people against eye contact with another driver

Farmer Joe was in his cart when he was hit by a truck. He decided his injuries from the accident were serious enough to take the trucking company to court.

“I didn’t ask for any details,” the lawyer interrupted, “just answer the question. Didn’t you say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine’?”

Farmer Joe said, “Well I had just got Bessie into the cart and I was driving down the road....”

The lawyer interrupted again and said, “Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the highway policeman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a cheat. Please tell him to simply answer the question.”

By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe’s answer and said to the lawyer, “I’d like to hear what he has to say about his favorite donkey Bessie.”

Joe thanked the Judge and continued, “Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite donkey, into the cart and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck ran into the stop sign and hit my cart right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch(路邊的溝) and Bessie was thrown into the other.”

“I was badly hurt and wasn’t able to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning(呻吟). I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident a highway policeman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the policeman came across the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He said, ‘Your donkey was in such bad shape, so I had to shoot her. How are you feeling?”

Several days ago, I met a stranger in the street who stopped and asked me directions．I  36 to show him the way to the destination, but to my 37, he coldly refused my offer. I asked him why. Finally he told me he was 38 I would ask him for money if I 39 him in this way.

Money! I 40 deep into thought. Is it money that comes between us? Money has no 41, it cannot be 42 with good or bad.

The problem 43 what attitude we have towards it.

At present, we have a more 44 material life than ever before, but we’re becoming more and more 45 . Why? In my opinion, the 46 is the change in people’s personal 47 .They wrongly believe that 48 money should be their only aim in life, so they 49 all sorts of ways they can to  50 this aim.

They are afraid of being 51 and fooled. If everyone thinks like this, what will our 52 be like?

Needless to say，money is becoming more and more important in our society, 53 it shouldn’t be the “be-all and end-all” of life. If a person only concentrates on 54 , he will be lonely and void(空虛), and even go astray(犯錯誤).

It is up to us to make our lives happy, not money. We should try our best to help others 55  and freely. If everyone does so, our society will be better and better.
