reddouble-deckers buses. think of thailands capital city, bangkok, and the noisytuk-tuk ( 三轮摩托车) may come to mind. picture the american city of sanfrancisco and you might see the citys trolleybuses. imagining what these cities would look like without their red buses, tuk-tuks ortrolleybuses is difficult. they are symbols of these cities that make them differentfrom anywhere else in the world. however, these city symbols, which are so lovedby tourists, are not always so well loved by their city leaders. city leaders want whatis best for their city, which often means the most modern transport. in thailand, bangkok city authorities have forbidden new tuk-tuks becausethey consider them noisy and polluting. however, the ban has largely beenunsuccessful, as it has not changed thai peoples preference for the inexpensivetuk-tuks over taxis. in london, the citys first ever mayor got rid of the red double-decker buses,which he thought were old-fashioned, by selling them to other countries. his plan worked, but londoners were upset to lose the charming old buses they believed represented thebest of their city. they made their upset felt, when the major came up for re-election lastyear. most londoners voted for his competitor who promised to bring the bus back. nowan improved version of the double-decker bus will hit londons streets in 2012. as for san francisco, several trolleybuses remain in use but mainly as touristattractions. they are too slow to be used for anything other than scenic trips. city transport symbols may have a place in their city peoples hearts, but it seemsthey are increasingly out of step with the modern world. as londoners have proved, theircontinued life depends on peoples willingness to fight for their survival.36. whats the purpose of writing the first paragraph ?a. to show the cultural significance of several cities unique transport systemsb. to introduce some old-fashioned means of transport, which are symbols ofthree tourist cities.c. to use the old transport symbols to attract more tourists to visit the cities.d. to explain why those cities are popular with tourists around the world. 37. bangkoks ban on tul-tuks is unsuccessful due to _.a. peoples unawareness of environmental protectionb. tourists preference for tuk-tuks over taxisc. the lack of severe punishment for violation(违规)d. locals willingness to take the tuk-tuks38. the london double-decker bus is returning mainly because _.a. it is an improved version b. the new mayor also loves itc. it is popular with tourists d. londoners fought for it39. we can conclude from reading the passage that _.a. tourist cities will lose their charm if their old transport symbols disappearb. a modern city should get rid of inefficient old transportc. old city transport symbols now face the problem of survivald. the writer is in favor of keeping the old city transport symbols b i got a guitar for my birthday, and since then i have been struggling. its kind of sad. to be honest, it is surprising how many problems are caused by such little things in the life of a teenage . it has awakened another side of myself within me. and it couldnt have happened at a worse time. im a senior. im going to graduate soon and i know what college im going to. and now i have to deal with the little voice in my head constantly reminding me that im going to be a rock star., not a scientist. so you can see my problem. a few weeks ago i was given the seemingly simple task of writing a short story. no specifics, no strict rules on organization. just write. so i sat down to create a beautiful work of fiction that would surprise my teacher and classmates. to be honest, this is an area i generally feel very strong in. writing , that is. i really enjoy it and such writing tasks used to take the least amount of time. so i was trying to write my story, and across the room lies my beautiful birthday present. “once upon a time,” i wrote. then i stopped, turned in my chair, and stared for a moment at the instrument. and then my reflection started dancing and singing. i wasnt moving, but it sure was. so i grabbed my guitar and plucked a string (拔下一根弦). the note sang out pure and heavenly, and there was no stopping what was coming. i sat rocking with my guitar until late into the night. i was sure i was preparing for the future much more efficiently now that i wasnt spending time writing stories. needless to say, no story was written, and many doubts arose in my mind. since then, i have constantly asked, “am i normal for not wanting to do my work anymore?” more importantly, though, i learned i am really going to be a rock star.40. whats the best title of the passage?a. birthday present offers new direction in life b. how i become a rock starc.
