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 schoolThe new plan is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington SchoolThe children live just within the threemile limit and the local government have said in the past that they will not undertake to provide free transport to the schoolBut 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 than20 a term。 They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus pany 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 childrenThe 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 56What 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 money57How 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 studentsCBy obtaining the support from the headmasterDBy linking the new bus service with the existing one58The new bus service will be paid for by Athe parents Bthe local government Cthe bus pany Dthe local government mad the parents59Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out? AThe bus pany 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.60This passage is most probably Aa personal letter Ban advertisement Ca headmasters report Da newspaper articleC If you were to e up with a list of organizations whose failures had done the most damage to the American economy in recent years，you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financialFrom there，you might move on to the automakers in Detroit But I would suggest that the list should also include a less obvious nominee：public education At its top level，the American system of higher education may be the best in the worldYet in terms of its core mission-turning teenagers into educated college graduatesmuch of the system is failing The United States does a good job enrolling(招生)teenagers in college，but only half of the students who enroll end up with a bachelors degree.So identifying the causes of the college dropout crisis m the worlds largest economy matters enormously, and a new book called Crossing the Finish Line tries to do precisely thatIts authors are economists William Bowen and MichaelMcPherson，and a doctoral candidate Matthew ChigoesThe first problem they diagnose is something they call tender-matching。It refers to students who choose not to attend the best college they can get intoThey instead go to a less selective one，perhaps one that is closer to home or less expensiveAbout half of the lowine students with a grade-point average of at least35 in high school and an SAT score of at least 1,200 do not attend the best college they could have。 “I was really astonished by the degree to which wellqualified students from poor families under-matched，” said MrBowenIn fact，well-off students attend the colleges that do the best job of producing graduatesMeanwhile，lower-ine students-even when they are better qualified-often go to colleges that excel(擅长)in producing drop-outs”Its really a waste，”MrBowen said，”and a big problem for the country”As the authors point out, the only way to lift the college graduation rate significantly is to lift it among poor and workingclass students. Instead，it appears to have fallen。 What can be done? Money is clearly part of the answer.61Which of the following would people first think of as a factor responsible for the American financial crisis according to the passage? AThe government BPublic education CThe Detroit automakers DThe Wall Street firms62What is a big problem with American higher education? AIt is hard to enroll enough students into college BMany colleges are experiencing low rate of graduation. CMany college students stay away from classes. DIt is nard for many colleges to get financial and from the government.63The title of the Book Crossing the Finish Line probably means .Arunning to the end of the line Bgoing to collegeCfinishing college education Dworking hard in college64Why do some students under-match? ABecause they have financial difficulty BBecause they face ambition crisis CBecause they lack confidence DBecause they cant get guidance。 65The passage is mainly about Aproblems with secondary American education and possible solutions BAmericas financial crisis, its cause and influence Clow rate of American college graduation, its cause and its influence Drelationship between American education and its economyDMany people have been talking about the way in which the world will e to an end in xx. Everybody wants to find out if December 21, 2012 is the last day of the earth. The rumor has already been spreading for a very long time. The Mayans predictions can account for the rumor. According to the rumor, the earth will experience dramatic changes in xx and the changes will be disastrous to all of the living creatures on earth .It is widely assumed that a Planet X will return to orbit the solar system. The return of Planet of Planet X will have a destructive effect on the solar system as well as on some planets including the Neptune(海王星) , the Jupiter(木星) and the earth. Planet X will cross into their orbits. Theres a possibility that Jupiter will change into a little sun at this time, so folks will be well placed to see two suns in the sky in xx. The solar flares(耀斑)that occur in a l1-year cycle will reach their highest point in xx. The powerful solar flares will affect the magnetic field of the earth and cause disasters. On December 21，xx，the sun and the earth will line up in the same line at the equator(赤道)。The winter solstice(冬至)only occurs once every 25，800 yearsThe events in the universe are signals that the world will e to an endAs a result of the solar flares, lots of disasters will happen that will destroy the face of the whole earthScientists are making the guess primarily based on the Mayan Long Court Calendar Many films have been made about the end of the world including End Game by Alex Jones and End Clock：Nostradamus xxThe former provides insights about the way the world will bee one stateAfter the world government is in place，its going to be easy to exterminate 80of the people in the worldThe rest will continue to live with assistance from advanced technology No one knows whether the world will end on December 21，xx，There is no clear answer until the day arrivesJust as the Mayans claims，it will not be the time for the world to endInsteadit will be the dawn of a flesh start66What is the passage mainly about? AInformation about end-of-the-world predictions BDifferent opinions about end-of-the-world predictions CSome doubts about end-of-the-world predictions.
