Yet, 32 , the study of grammar is one of the fastest growing areas of research in universities all over the worlD33 more so is the fact that many students who do not like grammar in school choose 34 as their subject of study in the university.The rather strange state of affairs 35 an explanation. On the whole, students consider the study of grammar uninteresting, and grammar is 36 taught in most British middle schools. However, language, which would be impossible without grammar, is an important part of human society. 37 , it is the foundation(基础)on which our society builds itself.

However, I still cant walk down the streets in any of the big cities without 45 that people are suffering from the air pollution. It is time for the government departments the world over to introduce emission(废气排出)controls on all cars and 46 the public transport system(公共交通体系)to encourage people to 47 their cars at home.

S. homes. They will attend U. S. schools, meet U. S.teen-agers, and form impressions of the real AmericAAt the same time, about thirteen hundred American teen-agers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the worlDHere is a two-way student exchange(交换)in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with Georges family. In turn,Georges son Mike spent a year in Freds home in AmericAFred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two monthsstudy, the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected-much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities(活动).Family life, too, was different. The fathers word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual(个人). Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his ideAI suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools, he says. It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe you schools are better in training for citizens(公民). There ought to be some middle ground between the two. 66This year _ teen-agers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries. Atwenty three hundred Bthirteen hundredCover three thousand Dless than two thousand67The whole exchange programme is mainly to _ . Ahelp teen-agers in other countries know the real AmericABsend students in America to travel in GermanyClet students learn something about other countriesDhave teen-agers learn new languages68Fred and Mike agreed that _ .

Athere is some middle ground between the two teaching buildingsBthere are a lot of after-school activitiesCstudents usually take fourteen subjects in allDstudents go outside to enjoy themselves in a car70After experiencing the American school life,Mike thought _ . Aa better education should include something good from both America and GermanyBGerman schools trained students to be better citizensCAmerican schools were not as good as German schoolsDthe easy life in the American school was more helpful to students(B)When did you last see a polar bear(北极熊)?On a trip to a zoo, perhaps?If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear cluBThese Polar Bears are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water.That day, the air temperature was 3, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group, this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the cluBPolar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the bodys temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages)of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.The main benefits(or advantages)of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round;they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says. When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away.71The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that_. Athey should be easy to make friends withBthey must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsCthey must agree to swim outdoors from November through FebruaryDthey must reach the age of 6072Doctors_.

Ayou are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blueBcold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winterCcold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highDPolar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water74The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round,for _ .
