I cannot be blamed for last week. I met the group at the airport and took them to the coach. The coach driver was a bit annoyed because the flight was late. But it wasn’t far to the hotel and everyone was looking forward to their dinner. We hadn’t used the Hotel Riviera before but our normal one had a conference in it so was fully booked. When I announced our arrival at the reception desk, they said they were full. I had booked rooms for the group but the manager said they were cancelled by phone a few days before. He insisted that he recognised my voice and that I had made the phone call. We had a bit of an argument but they obviously didn’t have enough rooms. In the end the manager phoned other hotels in the town and found rooms for everyone but in four different hotels. By this time the coach had gone so we had to get taxis and some of the tourists started to get very angry with me. I still don’t know who made that phone call but it definitely wasn’t me.‎ ‎56.

"And resources within a school need to be allocated in a balanced manner." ‎ ‎ The measures would not be applicable to high schools, where students lead the most rigid and stifled life as they prepare for the fiercely competitive college entrance exam, according to the ministry. ‎ ‎ The notice received a warm welcome from the public. More than half of the 1,500 comments left by netizens（网民） on Sina.com, one of the biggest Chinese news websites, said the measures are encouraging. ‎ ‎ Sun Min, mother of an 8-year-old girl in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu‎ ‎Province, said she applauds the ban as children should not be regarded as "good" or "bad" based on their scores. "It's a kind of discrimination," she said. ‎ ‎ Lou Guaiguai, a 14-year-old Beijing girl, said she is happy that she does not have to endure the nervous moment when teachers hand out exam papers. ‎ ‎ However, some parents worry that they might not know how their children perform at school without the ranking. ‎ ‎ The public also question whether the ministry's policies can be enforced in local schools. An anonymous comment on Sina argued that it is impossible for Chinese students to enjoy a happy childhood unless the highly competitive college entrance exam is abolished. "Our children are suffering from an exam-oriented education," the comment said.‎ ‎59．The main purpose to give students test scores in private is _________. ‎ A．to celebrate their intelligence in private B．to seek to prevent student depression ‎ C．to hide their shame in private D．to reduce pressure placed on late grade children ‎ ‎60．Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage? ‎ A．Chinese teachers usually see test scores as the best indicator of talent. ‎ B．Local education authorities seldom set up "key schools" or "key classes within a school. ‎ C．Public education resources should not be allocated in a balanced manner. ‎ D．The measures would be suitable for senior schools. ‎ ‎61．It can be concluded from the passage that _________. ‎ A．children should not be regarded as "good" or "bad" based on their scores B．the public also question whether the ministry's policies can be enforced in local schools ‎ C．children are suffering from an exam-oriented education D．most of the people are for the measures ‎62．The passage is probably written for . ‎ A．university students B．science researchers C．public readers D．high school students ‎ C It seems school children all over the world complain about their school food. Cherie Blair, the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school?‎ Japan High schools have canteens, which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles(泡菜) and vegetables.‎ ‎ Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition value. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers(剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize.‎ ‎ United States A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances(定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and calories.‎ Australia‎ Meat pies, sausage rolls and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus.‎ ‎ Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-labelled foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi(寿司), sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are available every day.‎ ‎ In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice.‎ South Africa Most of South Africa’s schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30pm and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches.‎ ‎ Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition. Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge(麦片粥) with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes.‎ ‎63. What does the underlined word “obesity ”in the last paragraph probably mean?‎ A.Violence. B.Sadness. C.Famine. D.Overweight.‎ ‎64. We can infer from the passage that ________.‎ A .a typical menu from a US school consists of enough nutrition B most students in South Africa eat their lunch at home C. many schools in Australia have traffic lights outside their school D. you can have whatever you like in school canteens in ‎Japan ‎65. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Schools should try to satisfy the needs of students B. Schools serve different foods from country to country C. Food served in the US is the best of all D. School children all over the world dislike their school food ‎66.The article is meant for ________.‎ A. school lunch suppliers B. schoolmasters C. students of your age D. nutritionists D ‎ Electronic devices are changing the way people listen to music. But studies show the devices may be causing hearing loss in many people. Some experts say people may be playing them too loud and for too long.‎ ‎ The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association did a study. It involved three hundred high school students and one thousand adults.‎ ‎ Forty percent of students and adults said they set the sound levels, or volume, at high on their iPods. But students were two times more likely to play the music at a very loud volume. More than half of the students said they would probably not limit their listening time. And about a third said they were not likely to reduce the volume.‎ ‎ Hearing experts say part of the problem is the listening equipment people are using. They say large earphones that cover the whole ear are probably safer than the smaller earbuds that come with most music players. Earbuds are thought to be less effective than earphones in blocking out foreign noises.‎ ‎ Hearing loss may not be apparent for years. But once it happens, it is permanent. About thirty million Americans have some hearing loss. One third of them lost their hearing as a result of loud noises.‎ ‎ The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association is working with manufacturers(生产商) and government officials on setting rules for use of portable music devices. The group says the best way to protect your hearing is to reduce the volume, limit listening time and using earphones that block out foreign noises.‎ ‎67. According to the study, more than half the students ________.‎ A. keep listening to music for a long time B. would reduce the volume of music C. would stop listening to music D. would reduce the time on listening to music ‎68. Which is NOT true according to the fourth paragraph?‎ A. The listening equipment used by people need to be improved.‎ B. Earbuds can’t block out foreign noises completely.‎ C. Most music players are equipped with earbuds. D. Listening to music with large earphones on is less effective.‎ ‎69. We can conclude from the text that ________.‎ A. only when rules for use of portable music device are worked out, can hearing loss disappear B. manufacturers are the main cause that lead to hearing loss C. it was not listening equipment but listeners themselves that mainly result in hearing loss D. using large earphones is the best way to protect your hearing ‎70. The underlined word “apparent” means ____. A. anxious B. obvious C. serious D. conscious ‎ E ‎ It is always hard for a small fish to live in a big pond. Pluto’s recent departure from the classical planet family clearly proves that size really matters.‎ ‎ Astronomers voted on August 24 to create the first scientific definition of the word “planet”, and Pluto obviously didn’t make the cut. It turned out to be only a “dwarf planet(矮行星)”.‎ ‎ After weeks of heated debate, over 2,500 astronomers from 75 countries voted on the definition of a “planet” at a conference of the International Astronomical Union(IAU). According to the definition, a planet must have a clear neighbourhood around its orbit. Pluto has widely been considered a planet since its discovery in 1930. Unfortunately, it has a special orbit which overlaps with Neptune’s. It is all because, compared with Neptune, Pluto is very small. It is attracted by Neptune’s gravity when the two planets get closer.‎ ‎ According to IAU, a “dwarf planet” should have an orbit around the Sun. It will not have a clear neighborhood around its orbit, and must not be a satellite. The new classification means that the science textbooks will have to be updated.‎ ‎ The solar system is now made up of the eight “classical planets,” together with a number of dwarf planets. The classical planets are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.‎ ‎ The debate over Pluto’s status started in 1992. After an advanced telescope was sent into space, astronomers started to find a belt of objects, which lies beyond Neptune. The belt contains nearly 1,000 objects, including Pluto. As they continued the exploration, scientists recently discovered at least 41 dwarf planets at the edges of the solar system. There are at least two objects of a similar size to Pluto.‎ ‎ It seems that even if the IAU had kept Pluto’s status as a planet, the classical theory of nine planets in the solar system would have had to be changed, but the other way around. More dwarf planets of a similar size to Pluto would join the family of planets. Scientists will probably find many more dwarf planets.‎ ‎71. The main purpose of the text is to ________.‎ A. prove to the readers that size matters B. tell readers about a big change of the planets C. explain the classical theory of planets D. inform us of science textbooks being updated ‎72. We can infer from the text that _________.‎ A. eight planets make up the solar system B. it has been hard for scientists to define a “planet”‎ C. Mars is very hot and you can’t go near it D. Pluto shares the same orbit with ‎Neptune ‎73. Scientists argued about Pluto’s status for a long time because ________.‎ A. Pluto was first discovered in 1930 B. the family of planets is too big C. Pluto is located beyond Neptune D. many dwarf planets, like Pluto, were found ‎74. The reason for Pluto’s departure is that ________.‎ A. Pluto does not fit the definition of a “planet” B. Pluto cannot compete with other planets C. Pluto is attracted by Neptune’s gravity D. other objects of its size have been discovered ‎75. The best title of the text is ________.‎ ‎ A. An Unexpected Result B. Eight Planets C. Goodbye Pluto D. New Scientific Definition 对话填空:‎ M: Good morning, Ms. Yang. Thank you for 1) a______ my interview.
