Before 1750, the idea of skating didnt exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlins work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball（化装舞会）. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlins grand entrance for a long time!56The text is mainly about _.Aa strange man Ban unusual partyChow roller skating beganDhow people enjoyed themselves in the 18th century57People thought Merlin was a dreamer because he _.Aoften gave others surprisesBwas a gifted musicianCinvented the roller skatesDwas full of imagination58Merlin put wheels under his shoes in order to _ .Aimpress the party guestsBarrive at the party soonerCtest his inventionDshow his skill in walking on wheels59What is the main point the writer is trying to make in the last paragraph?AThe roller skates needed further improvement.BThe party guests took Merlin for a fool.CMerlin succeeded beyond expectation.DMerlin got himself into trouble.BSouth Korean filmsBeijing audience(观众) can view five new South Korean films, all with Chinese subtitles(中文字幕), until April 19 at the Tuixin Cinema on the Beijing National Library grounds.Two other South Korean films completed their full runs（展出） at the Tuixin Cinema earlier this month.Location：Tuixin Cinema, Beijing National Library, 39 Baishiqiao Road, Haidian District Telephone：86425566My love, My BrideApril 15： 9: 00, 13: 00, 15: 30, 17:30, 19:30Kims WarApril 16： 9:00, 13:00, 18:15Because You Are a WomanApril 17：13:30, 18:15Marriage StoryApril 18：9:00, 13:30, 15:30, 18:15SopyonjeApril 19：9:00, 13:30, 15:30, 17:30, 19:30Leons showHong Kong popstar.Leon Lai will give a personal performance at 7：30pm from tomorrow through to September 21 at the Shanghai Gymnasium.

In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system (制度), American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and who should repeat a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade.In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors. So children who want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊区的) high schools, where most students want to go to university and the atmosphere (氛围) is quite different.70. Activities outside of the classroom refer to _.A. what the students do after class in school B. what the students learn in extra classesC. what a music group or a sports team doD. what the teachers do after class for the students71. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The time of free education in China is longer than that in America.B. Those who get good marks can go to a good university.C. American students can take all kinds of subjects during the high school period.D. They can be allowed to join the next grade even if they fail the school-year exam.72. The writer of the passage tells us the truth that _.A. the atmosphere in high schools is quite different from that in a universityB. none of the schools in cities are good for learningC. suburban high schools are good places for learningD. all the American students want to go to universityEWhen people read daily newspapers, they expect to see latest news from all over the worldSome newspapers have offices or reporters in Washington, DCand other major cities around the worldMost newspapers depend on news services for international news. News services are organizations that gather and sell news to papers, radio and television stations.
