The passage is mainly about _________.‎ A. the introduction of teenagers’holiday B. the experience of teenagers’holiday C. the purpose of teenagers’holiday ‎ D. the changes of teenagers’holiday D Technology to Help Developing Countries When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, it’sfar from enough. Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve got to come up with some better ideas to help them.‎ I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computersfor children in developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheaplaptop computer, which can run without electricity. He decided to invent this computer after he visited a school in Cambodia.‎ The laptop which Mr.Negroponte has designed is a little different from the normal laptop computers you can buy in the shops. One difference is that it will be covered in rubber（橡胶）so that it is very strong and won’t be damagedeasily. As an electricity supplycan be a problem in developing countries,the computer also has a special handle so that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.‎ These special laptop computers will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr. Negroponte wants to build as many as 15 million machines in the first year of production. The idea is that these computers will help the children’s education as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not help the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children’s education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.‎ Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away ‎ every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment,　 so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them. In this way we will be able to　 achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to “kill two birds with one stone”, and that is always a good thing.‎ ‎53. The expression“be damaged” in Paragraph 3 probably means“_________”.‎ A. be fixed B. be hurtC. be usedD. be broken ‎54. From the passage we can learn thatthe cheap laptop__________.‎ A. can help the developing countries with theelectricity supply B. can be moved and carried with the help of a special handle ‎ C. can help the children’s educationby surfing the Internet ‎ D. will be covered with rubber so that it can save money ‎55. The writer may agreethat in developing countries these ideas can_________.‎ A. help the children reduce waste and earn money ‎ B. be good for the environment and the education C. help the children solve the problems at once D. provide the basic needsforthe people there 七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项只能用一次。（共10分，每小题2分）‎ Once upon a time there were three roommates who lived on the sixtieth floor of a tall building. ‎ One evening they returned home from hard work, they were very tired. 56 . So they tried to think of how to get to their apartment, finally one of them said,“57 , but to climb the stairs all the way up, I suggest that after twenty floors, one of us tellsa funny story, so we laugh and forget about being tired. And again on the fortiethfloor, the second one would do the same.When we get to the sixtieth floor, the last one should tell a sad story.So we can fall asleep right away. ”‎ They all agreed, and after reachingthetwenty-firstfloor, one told them a very funny story. 58 .And then the second boytold even a better joke, again they laughed even harder, and continued up till they got to their apartment door.

How do you start a school club? This simple step-by-step guide will show you how to start a club right from the beginning to the end. ‎ Work out the plan.Choose a time and a place for your club. Decide on a room　tohold the club in with your friend, and speak with the person in charge of the room. Agree with them on a time, but make it during school hours, and not during lessons or work time. Plan out how the club will run. At many schools, students start planning the club before the summer vacation. ‎ Find responsible people. You can’t start a club with only one member. Every club needs some people who are responsible, intelligent and hardworking. A club including people like this will certainly succeed. Also starting to talk with the responsible friends will help in the planning of the club so that you will not have to do it by yourself. ‎ Talk to the teachers. Speak to the teachers of both your classes and your members’ classes. If all of them agree on your plan, you may speak to the headmaster. If the headmaster agrees, move on to the next step. ‎ Persuade（说服）others to join. The first thing is to create a poster. On the poster, you can introduce your club with some pictures to attract others. Prepare a speech. Make people understand the motive of your club and different needs of the club. This will provide a clear view to get people to join. ‎ Stay organized. Now that a club has started, it is not over yet. All of the hard parts may have passed, but there is still the maintenance（维护）of the club. You need to make sure that everything works well and members can learn and enjoy themselves in the club. ‎ Enjoy your club!‎ ‎61. Will this step-by-step guide show you how to start a club?‎ ‎62.
