Each day they carry more than 25,000,000 children, half of all schoolchildren in the country. But these buses, on average, use four liters of diesel (柴油) fuel to travel less than sixteen kilometers. When the school year began last autumn, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.Bob Riley speaks for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices for schools are not much lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled. Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. And some school districts may end any bus service not required by law.Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment. It says removing buses from the road will mean an increase in other vehicles transporting students. Spokesman Bob Riley says another concern is that reducing bus services might reduce attendance（到校）.But it could also get more children to walk or bicycle to school. And that would surely make people happy at the National Center for Safe Routes to School. More kids walking or biking safely to school is the aim of a three-year-old federal program, part of an international movement. The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution. The United States will celebrate Walk to School Day on October eighth this year. But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a walk-to-school day.66. This passage mainly tells us_. A. High fuel prices influences on school buses. B. New measures to transport school students.C. The safest form of student transportation. D. The origin of Walk to School Day.67. Which of the following information is implied in the first paragraph?A. There are too many school buses in the United States.B. There are too many students in the US.C. Diesel prices are going up too rapidly in the US.D. School buses consume（消耗）too much diesel in the US.68. What can we learn from Paragraph Three?A. Cuts in bus service will have negative results.B. The US government is encouraging cuts in bus services.C. The US schools are searching for the safest transportation means.D. Reducing bus service will do a lot of good to the environment.69. In order to cut down transportation cost, many schools take the following measures EXCEPT_.A. changing some bus routes B. stopping some bus routesC. asking parents to drive children to and from school D. using other types of fuels70. The National Center for Safe Routes to School encourages more children to walk or bike to school in order to _.A. save more fuels and diesel for the country B. keep the children safe on their way to schoolC. make the children live a simple life D. keep the children healthy and the environment cleanD Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both questions is yesTo some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth，and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligenceOn the other hand，a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundingsThus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth，but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environmentThis view, now held by most experts，can be supported in a number of ways It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born withThe closer the blood relationship between two people，the closer they are likely to be in intelligenceThus if we take two unrelated people at random（随机地） from the population，it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be pletely differentIf on the other hand we take two identical twins，they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters，parents and children，usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environmentsWe might send one，for example，to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boringWe would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a partThis conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all，are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence71Which of the following best describes the writers point in Paragraph One? ATo some extent, intelligence is given at birth BIntelligence is developed by the environment CSome people are born clever and others born stupid DIntelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment72In the first paragraph，“no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence” suggests that .Ano environment can change the least able into the most able Bthe difference in mens intelligence depends on the amount of their education Cif a person is born clever, he is certain to be a genius Dif a person is born stupid, nothing can change him into an educated person73The last paragraph mainly shows . Athe importance of education Bthe relationship between environment and birth Cthe writers
