This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their childrens safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.The new plan is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school. But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the schools headmaster.Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than 20 a term.They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.56. What is the aim of the plan?ATo prevent the students road accidents. BTo relieve the traffic pressure.CTo save time for the parents and students. DTo help the parents save money.57. How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low cost?ABy letting the bus run in the morning only. BBy limiting the number of the students.CBy obtaining the support from the headmaster.DBy linking the new bus service with the existing one.58. Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out?AThe bus company will make much more money.BThe children can choose whatever school they like.CThe parents can get rid of their worries.DThe students in Impington School can have free bus rides.59. This passage is most probably_.Aa personal letter Ban advertisementCa headmasters report Da newspaper article BMichael, a typical American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal (终端机) in order to connect with the office. After work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder, or plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Michael doesnt talk to any other human beings, and he doesnt see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from meeting our fellow human beings.The world of business is one area in which technology is isolating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. By making use of a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, and accountants (会计) could do their jobs at display terminals in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people theyre dealing with. In addition, the way employees are paid will change. Workers salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or exchange their checks for money. Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts.Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for example, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.60. After work, Michael likes to _.A. listen to music at the concert hall B. watch a movie in his living roomC. run a program on his computer in his office D. play baseball with his workmates61. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Clerks will be able to work at home. B. One can play baseball on the computer.C. One can listen to music without disturbing others.D. One can borrow books from libraries at home.62. What will the author most probably discuss after the last paragraph?A. Games and sports. B. Personal banking.C. Music and films. D. International business.63. What is the main idea of the passage?A. We may no longer need to communicate with other human beings.B. Modern technology seems to be separating human beings.C. We may no longer need to work in the office.D. Modern technology makes it possible for us to work and entertain ourselves at home.CFor a small town, Manhattan, Kansas has some big surprises. And one of them is the Holiday Inn Hotel, with rooms built around a swimming pool and a friendly atmosphere.The Holiday Inn is where Manhattan people often go for a special party, or a night out. A lot of them choose to eat in the bright-lit restaurant near the pool. And many of them will be served by Ellen Logan, who has worked as a waitress here for more then two years.Ellen, like most of the waitresses, is also a student. She comes from Nebraska, but shes planning one day to be a veterinary surgeon, and to care for small animals. But in order to support herself at college, she works twenty hours a week at the Holiday Inn.Ellen soon learned what every waitress finds out. Your best friend has a good pair of shoes. She paid forty-five dollars for hers, much more than she would usually spend. Shes discovered something else too. You dont have to know much about food to be a good waitress, but you do have to know a lot about people.A lot of business people always stay here when they come to Manhattan, she explains. They like you to recognize them and remember their favorite dishes. But some couples come for a night out together. They just want to be left alone. Then there are people who cant make up their minds. They look down the menu and say, What do you suggest? So I ask them how hungry they are. If they say, Not very, I suggest the salad bar, with soup, salad, bread, and a fruit plate. But if they say theyre very hungry, I suggest a Kansas Strip Steak, with potatoes or rice. You get salad and bread as well. Its very nice. Real good value. Ellen may get tired feet sometimes, but at least shes learning too much about people. Shell probably make a good animal doctor, but if she finds she doesnt like it after all, she can become a psychiatrist(心理医生.) instead.64. A good title for this passage is _.A. Ellen Logan at the Holiday Inn B. American Holiday InnC. A Special Holiday Inn Hotel in Manhattan D. How to Deal with People65.

From the passage we can infer that_.A. waitresses in the Holiday Inn are all studentsB. waitresses are required to buy a good pair of shoes before they go to workC. waitresses should be familiar with the food thereD. it is more important for the waitresses to know much about people than food67. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. Businessmen like to be suggested what to eat.B. Many couples often want you to recognize them.C. Why people like to eat in the hotel is that it is full of a friendly atmosphere.D.
