The wooden bridge across the river has been swept away. The town is cut by flood waters. At the fifth mile Jalan Tengku, the water is not two metres deep. It is closed to all traffic. Motorists going south are advised to use Jalan Hisamuddin. Flooding first appeared at mid-afternoon yesterday along the river banks. People moving to higher ground were just in time to escape from the flood. Most of the people had to leave their possessions behind. Helped by the army, police, Red Cross Society, the whole town was moved out of danger. They are new houses near the town of Tulang. “Everything possible is being done to help the unfortunate people, ” a government official said, “ In fact, money, food and clothing have begun to come in from organizations and people. ”According to the latest reports it is still raining heavily at Ternang.

Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration is probably the migration of fish, which is called “Salmon”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster（龙虾）.Every year, when the season of bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long time and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we dont. Maybe living things just like to travel.60. Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _.A.give birthB. enjoy warmer waterC.find food more easily D. find beautiful places61.

Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel.D. Animals move in order to find food more easily.CA severely handicapped teenager who cannot walk, talk or hold a paintbrush has won a place at Oxford to study fine art.Hero Joy Nightingale, 16, who communicates through hand movements, is to be given assistants to paint and sculpt on her behalf. Her mother Pauline Reid “translated for” her daughter during interviews for the place at Magdalen College.The teenager is the most severely handicapped student ever to be granted a place at Oxford. She suffers from “locked-in syndrome”, a profound apraxia caused by brain damage that renders her body useless and her voice mute.She is unlikely ever to be able to walk, feed or care for herself but, thanks to the efforts of her mother, she can communicate. When Hero was four, Pauline devised a complicated system of hand gestures that equate to the alphabet.A spokesperson for Oxford said, “The university welcomes applications from students with disabilities. In cases where students are profoundly disabled, there may be many issues that need to be carefully addressed before an individual can take up a place, such as establishing how the student can best be taught and examined.”Hero, who suffers almost daily epileptic fits and has a hole in her heart, has not attended school since she was six. She has been taught at home by her mother and father, the pro-vice chancellor of Kent University.Peter Giles, her art tutor until last year, said she has a genuine talent for art. “She is ferociously gifted. We would sit together and her mother would grab her daughters hand and then we would begin work,” he said.Together, they built several modern sculptures from plaster and metal. “The instructions would take a while to decipher. But eventually, they would come, and eventually make sense.”Heros classes will be held at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art.64. Hero communicates with others _.A. through common hand movementsB. by typing words on computerC. by drawing pictures on a boardD. through a complicated system of hand gestures devised by her mother65.
