Sources said the library and sports hall were also damaged beyond repair.Strong winds and a shortage of water hampered (prevented) 125 firemen trying to bring it under control.Police said yesterday that five boys one aged 11, two 12-year-olds, one aged 13 and one 15 arrested on suspicion of starting the fire had been released on bail(保释) until later this month. Parents said the suspects all attended St Marys.Firefighters were expected to remain at the scene until late this afternoon. Staff were due to attend the school yesterday for an inset day, and pupils were to return for lessons after the holidays today.St Marys head teacher Kathy McNicholas fought back the tears as she watched her school go up in flames last night.She said: This is so upsetting to watch. Its heart-breaking. Its very distressing for the staff and for the children. Everyone had been looking forward to ing back for the new school year. Finding somewhere for around 730 children wont be easy. A few of the staff have turned up to see if there is anything they can do and they have all been shocked and saddened by what has happened. Its tragic because we have only just had a lot of refurbishment(翻新) work done to the school during the summer break. It was a big investment.

Worried shoppers rushed to stores and supermarkets in the country for salt, with the belief that it might protect them from potential nuclear radiation spreading from Japan. Many rushed to buy to store as much iodized salt as possible because of the rumor that iodized salt could help prevent radiation poisoning spreading from Japan s Fukushima Daiichi power plant. Consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to China by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea.The wave of panic buying spread quickly across the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold in some cities.Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province，faced sudden shortages.The government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize（稳定）the market. It also dismissed the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning.Local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market, too. As well, state-owned salt panies have been urged to increase their supply.Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared.Wang Yun, the General Manager of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, “Our storage reserves can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market.”59People made panic purchases of salt for the reasons EXCEPT_.A. salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiationB. nuclear radiation might pollute food sourcesC. nuclear radiation might pollute salt taken from the seaD. there would be a shortage of salt on the market60The underlined word “fold” in the third paragraph means _.A. times B. prices C. quantities D. means61What is the purpose of the writer to give the example of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation?A.

It has been designed to encourage more people to cycle in and around central London. So how does it work？First you have to sign up to the scheme to be sent a key. The key will unlock one of the bikes，which are kept at docking stations in and around central London. You have to pay an access fee for the key and then you pay as you go，for the length of time you use the bike. Transport for London，which runs the scheme，are hoping to have 6，000 bikes and 400 docking stations in place by the end of the year. The new hire system is hoping to ease congestion (拥挤)in London and is expected to create up to 40，000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre. London Mayor oris Johnston launched the scheme and said London had been “filled with thousands of gleaming machines that will transform the look and feel of our streets and bee as monplace on our roads as black cabs and red buses”. However，there have been a few problems since the scheme was launched last Friday. On the first day some people found they couldnt dock their bike properly and their usage of the bike had not registered. Transport for London did admit they had been expecting a few “teething problems” and have said they wouldnt charge for the first day as a “gesture of goodwill”. Some other people have criticized the lack of docking stations and locks for the bikes as well as the price it costs to hire the bicycles. Despite the ments，the green-thinking London Mayor still seems very positive about things，saying，“My campaign for the capital to bee the greatest big cycling city in the world has taken a big pedal-powered push forwards.” 62.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people traditionally prioritize caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned.Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh petition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that e handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a pany, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.In spite of mon practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure pared with their modern counterparts.Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.Are Modern People Being More Selfish? Main parisonsContexts _1_ are changingIn the past people put caring, sharing and generosity in the first _2_.Nowadays, people seem to be more _3_about themselves._4_are changing too.People in the past appeared to be modest and self-effacing(谦让的).People may strive to achieve their own _5_ at the price of their coworkers.The authors understanding_6_ for the changes in authors eyesFierce _7_ and great _8_on modern people may be responsible for the changes.The authors _9_towards topicA relationship which can _10_ two sides should be established. 第六部分：单词拼写（共14小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）1.
