There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and youll miss a great part of it.

She was amazed by its color, deep red in the middle, softly fading into yellow. She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.The atmosphere relaxed her. After all she had been through, this was what she needed. Its getting late, she thought, I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am.

CDamage to Ozone layer Gets WorseIn the middle of winter, when snow is falling in many parts of the United States, scientists have sounded a warning to people who plan to spend many hours in the sun this summer. The warning is: The suns summertime rays are more dangerous than once thought.A team of scientists from 80 nations recently reported to the United Nations that a layer of ozone (臭氧层) in the atmosphere, which protects humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet（紫外线） radiation, will be thinner over the United States this summer. The thinner layer allows more ultraviolet rays from the sun to reach Earth. The extra amount of ultraviolet radiation could cause an increase in the number of cases of skin cancer.Scientists first became concerned about the ozone layer in the mid-1980s when a hole was discovered in the layer above Antarctica during the winter. The hole was caused by chemicals used in refrigerators and air conditioners. When these chemicals are sent out into the atmosphere, they produce gases that destroy the ozone.Concern about the protective ozone layer rose more recently when data(数据) from satellites and ground stations showed that ozone levels were dropping over areas other than Antarctica. Low ozone levels were recorded in the spring and summer over the United States and over other populated areas in the world.Although many countries have already begun stopping the use of ozone destroying chemicals, the new findings are expected to advance the timetable for a total ban(禁止) of the chemicals.59. The scientists have observed the ozone layer_.A. for over 25 yearsB. since last winter C. since 1980D. for about one year60. The ozone layer in the atmosphere can _.A. do a lot of good to human beings in many ways.B. protect humans from diseases caused by bad weather.C. protect humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation.D. do a lot of harm to human beings in the summer-time.61. Scientists first found that there was a hole in the ozone layer_.A. above Arctic during the winter in the mid-1980sB. over somewhere in the north of the equator in 1980C. over the U.S.A in the summertime in the mid-1980sD. above Antarctica during the winter in the mid-1980s62. The damage to the ozone layer was caused by_.A. the changeable weatherB. chemicals from refrigeratorsC. chemicals from air conditionersD. ozone-destroying chemicalsDStudents who say they never or hardly ever used dictionaries often speak English well but usually write poorly, because they make many mistakes.The students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either. The ones who look up every new word do not read fast. Therefore they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as translations of English. But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English.The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context. Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables, they always use a dictionary. Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form, they check these in a dictionary.63. The writer thinks that _.A. choose a good dictionary, and youll be successful in learning EnglishB. dictionaries are not necessary to the students who learn English.C. using dictionaries very often cant help to improve writingD. it is very important for students to use good dictionaries properly64. According to the passage, which of the following is wrong?A. Dictionaries have little effect on learning to speak English.B. Small two-language dictionaries have serious disadvantages.C. Whatever new words you meet while reading, never use dictionaries.D. Reading something for the first time, youd better not use dictionaries.65. This passage mainly tells us _A. that students shouldnt use small two-language dictionariesB. what dictionary students should choose and how to use itC. what were the defects of small two-language dictionariesD. why students should use large college edition dictionaries66. Which is not mentioned in this passage?A. How to improve spoken English. B. How to make good use of a dictionary.C. When to use a dictionary.D. How to practise reading fast.EParking has long been a major headache for drivers in Shanghai. The Transportation Department is mapping out a new plan for the citys parking system. There are one million cars on the road in Shanghai but only enough public parking space to provide room for 15 percent of these vehicles. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park.The city is seeing a rise in private car owners. In March, the city sent out 2,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to 14,600 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars.By the year 2020, the number of automobiles in Shanghai will probably reach two million.
