30、en and womenC. Doctors and psychologists D. Popular entertainersB.A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end many parents worries fearful for their childrens safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only

31、 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

32、 not lose money and children taking part willattend their nearest school.The new plan is to be fired 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

33、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 ha

34、ve 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 sa

35、me 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 had asked if transport could be provided for their children , to see if they wouldlike to take part in the new plan.60.What is the aim of the plan

38、get rid of their worriesD. The students in Impington School can have free bus rides63. This passage is most probably _A. a personal letter. B. an advertisementB headmasters report. D. a newspaper articleC .Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he wa

39、nt to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes that the public will listen and understand -he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him.What visional artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because p

40、ainters translate their experience into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain choice of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is very interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have notice these particular shapes and

41、 colors ,or have felt the delight which they brought to the artists.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in movement and at rest; their choices show that these aspects( 方面)of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Moder

42、n artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose totally without thinking about the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a decaying( 溃烂的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, e

43、ach of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world . Each painter is telling us something , showing us something , emphasizing something- all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.64.It is hard to explain what a painter is saying because _.A

44、. most painters do not express themselves well B. a painter uses unusual words and phrases C. a painter use shapes and colors instead of words D. many painters do not say anything65. Modern artists might say their choice of subjects _.A. carries a message to the public B. only provides interesting p

45、atternsC. has no pattern or form D. teaches the public important truths66. The writer says that modern art contains_A. nothing but meaningless patterns B .uninteresting aspects of the worldC. subjects chosen partly for their meaning D. completely meaningless subjects67. Which of the following is imp

46、lied but NOT directly stated in the passage?A. A painting is more easily understood than a songB. Art is only the arranging of shapes and colorsC. Every artist tries to say something to the publicD. One must look beyond shapes and colors to find out what an artist is sayingD.How could we possibly th

47、ink that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments mostly for entertainment purposesis fair and respectful?Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is a

48、cceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals natural behavior, intellig ence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spac

49、es or cages, and most signs only mention the species name, diet, and natural range( 分布区). The animals normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos dont usually take care of the animals natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental an

50、d physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or bi

51、ting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wil

52、d. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Havent we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save

53、 their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals natural habitats.68How would the author describe the animals life in zoos?ADangerous. BUnhappy. CNatural. DEasy.69In the state of zoochosis, animals _.Are

54、main in cages Bbehave strangelyCattack other animals Denjoy moving around70What does the author try to argue in the passage?AZoos are not worth the public support. BZoos fail in their attempt to save animals. CZoos should treat animals as human DZoos use animals as a means of making money.71The auth

55、or tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _.Apointing out the faults in what zoos do. Busing pictures he has taken at zoosCquestioning the way animals are protected Ddiscussing the advantages of natural habitatsE.When his wife died ,the baby was two. They had six other children,

56、three boys and three girls ,ranging in age from 4 to 16.A few days after he became a widower , the man s parents and his past wife s parents came tovisit the family. “ Weve been talking” they said ,” about how to take care of all these children and work to make a lining So, we ve arranged for each c
