A Good BeginningC. Her Best Friend D. The New GirlC Are there Harry Porter books in your schooI library? Many kids all over the world are reading J. K. Rowlings books in school. But some parents think their children shouldnt be able to find those and other books in schooI libraries.Should schooI Iibraries keep books that some parents dont approve of? Should they take those books off the shelves? All over the country, schools are trying to find solutions to this problem. Read these arguments. Then decide for yourself.Yes! Some Books Sould Be Banned (禁止) from School Libraries!We need certain limits (限定)，said one student. He said some books have no place in school Iibraries.Books should meet certain standards before they are put in schooIs. Is this a good book for kids to read? Is it fuII of violence (暴力)? Does it include bad words or ideas kids shouId not learn about? If a book is not good for all kids, it should not be in a schooI Iibrary.Most parents know whats good for kids. They have a right to decide which books should or should not be in schooI Iibraries. If parents dont have time to find out everything their kids read, they should trust schooIs to do that for them.No! Books Should Not Be Banned from School Libraries!Parents should decide what their own kids read, said Natalie Nicol, a student. But other parents shouldnt make that choice for them. Many experts say that its the parents job, not the schooIs job, to check out what their kids are reading. If they dont Iike a book, they should not let their kids read it. Why should a few parents stop kids from reading stories like the Harry Potter series? Kids should be able to check out books their parents think are OK to read it.Many schooIs Iet kids borrow certain books if they have a signed paper from a parent. That works fine. A parent doesnt sign the paper if he or she doesnt want the child to read the book. Other kids can read the books if they have permission.Some books are not OK for all kids to read. But if more adults were careful about what their own kids read, they wouldnt have to ban books from the library.53.What does the underlined phrase “approve of mean?A. borrowB. acceptC. knowD. keep54.According to some parents, what should schooIs do before books are put in schooIs?A. Set certain standards. B. Learn about the writers C. Do a survey on books. D.Take out the bad words.55.What is the passage mainly about?A.Whether students should read certain books or not.B.Whether some limits should be set on books or not.C.Whether some books should be in schooI libraries or not.D.Whether parents should choose good books for kids or not. DGarry Golden is a futurist. Futurists are scientists who analyze the way the world is today and use that information.to predict what the world will be like in the future. Golden focuses on the study of transportation. He spends his days studying the relationships between cars, subways, and trains. But hes most excited about imagining the way these relationships will change in the future.Many public transportation supporters dislike big cities because they spend hours driving from one side of the city to the other. And there arent enough buses and. subways.However, Golden sees a trend (趋势) toward fewer cars in the future. He explains, Cities have a cost of car ownership, which is a challenge. All these vehicles cost the city in services, in having to repair roads and other things. Cars also take up a lot of space.Golden points out that having so many parking spaces is wasteful. Much of the time the parking spaces sit empty. What is the solution?I think cities will make new laws to limit the number of cars people can have ， says Golden. Instead, people will use taxis, subways, and buses. New technology, like smartphones, can make these forms of public transportation even better. Imagine if everyone had a smartphone and used them to signal(发信号) when they wanted to ride the bus. Buses could change their route(路线) to meet peoples requests.How soon would these changes e? Golden admits that it will take several years. Cities can be slow to change. Also, new systems of transportation can be expensive. But its ing, he says. The trend of the empowered city will be here soon. The other trend that excites Golden is electric cars. Golden especially believes in the future of electric cars that have sensors(传感器) to understand the world around them. If we have cars that can municate with one another, they can adjust speeds to cut down on traffic jams,he says. Rush hour in big cities would be much less painful.One challenge is that it is hard to cheaply produce batteries that are strong enough for these cars. But Golden argues we could, also make cars out of strong plastic posites(合成物). The cars would then be much lighter and much cheaper to make.Golden remains positive about the future. There are so many exciting developments ，he says. In thirty years we will live a different world. 56.What does Garry Golden mainly study?A. The changes of future transportation. B.What cars will be like in the future.C. How the world .is different from today D.The relationships between cars and people.57.Why does Golden see a trend toward fewer cars in the future?A. -Because cities-take up a lot of space. B.Because cars cost too much of the cityC. Because people prefer to take the subway D.Because roads are sometimes too crowded.58.Which of the following statements is true according to Golden?A. New buses will take the place of cars as a way of transportation.B. Electric cars with sensors will be able to put an end to traffic jams.C. Future cars could be lighter because of strong and powerful batteries.D. Future buses can receive signals and change their routes accordingly:59.What is Goldens attitude to the future of transportation?A. Uncertain.B. Worried.C. Hopeful.D. Careful.七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项 中有一项为多余选项。共 8 分，每小题 2 分)Susan was terrified of the dark. In fact, she couldnt sleep without leaving the lights on.
