15.Driving a large truck over mountain roads is not the usual way that a schoolteacher begins her day-especially if she is a preschool teacher.But Mrs Beth Miller does this five days every week.Her unusual schoolhouse on wheels is actually a truck.The back of the truck has been made into a classroom in order to carry the advantages of modern education to remote areas of the state of West Virginia.In many rural areas of this state it is impossible for small children to go to regular schools because of the many hills and valleys of Appalachian Mountains.
The purpose of the schoolhouse on wheels project is to develop basic skills and social behavior in children three to five years of age.This is done through games,exercises,toys and simple handcrafts.The schoolhouse on wheels concept also teaches the young children to recognize 300to 400words on the printed page.This is a great advantage in helping the pupils to learn to read when they begin regular school.In its three-year history the project has helped about 350children in an area made up of five counties,an area of 20,000square kilometers.The schoolhouse on wheels is part of the Appalachian Educational Laboratory,a research effort paid for by the government.Besides the mobile classroom,other parts of the program include lessons by television and visits to the homes of the students.The technique is very effective,and one teacher can do the work of seven in a traditional educational system.As a result the program costs about 50% less than the regular kindergarten.
All these advantages of the schoolhouse on wheels have made both parents and school officials happy.West Virginia plans to increase the program and to include it in the public school system so that more than 4,500preschool children can have this valuable learning experience.

59.Mrs Beth Miller usuallyB.
A.walks to begin her work
B.drives a large truck to begin her work
C.drives her car to the school
D.carries the classroom to the school
60.Children in many rural areas of West Virginia cannot go to regular schools becauseC.
A.large trucks cannot go in mountainous areas
B.there are no schoolhouses on wheels there
C.there are many hills and valleys there
D.preschool teachers don't like to work there

A.Schoolhouse on wheels
B.West Virginia

16.Many private schools of higher education around the country are in danger.Not all will be saved,and perhaps not all deserve to be saved.There are low-quality schools just as there are low-quality businesses.We have no duty to save them simply because they exist.
But many promising institutions that deserve to continue are threatened.They are doing a fine job educationally,but they are caught in a financial squeeze,with no way to reduce rising cost or increase income significantly.Raising tuition(学费) doesn't bring in more income,for each time tuition goes up,the enrollment(入学) goes down,or the amount that must be given away in student aid goes up.Schools are bad businesses,whether public or private,not usually because of mismanagement but because of the nature of the business.They lose money on every customer,and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students.Even a very good college is a very bad business.
It is such colleges,promising but threatened,that I worry about.Low enrollment is not their chief problem.Even with full enrollment,they may  go under.Efforts to save them,and preferably to keep them private,are a national necessity.There is no basis for arguing that private schools are in nature better than public schools.There are many examples to the contrary.Anyone can name public universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world.It is now inevitable that public schools will be dominant,and therefore diversity,which is a national necessity,should be advocated.In an imperfect society such as ours,uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous,and diversity tends to be healthy in the forms of education.Not only supporters of public higher education,but also the whole society should be fully conscious of what great impact sustaining private higher education has.

61.According to the author's opinion schools are bad businesses because ofD.
A.mismanagement           B.too few students
C.too many students       D.the nature of schools
62.The author used the phrase"go under"in Paragraph 3to meanA.
A.get into difficulties   B.have low enrollment
C.have low tuition        D.bring in more money
63.We can reasonably conclude from this passage that the author made an appeal to the public in order to supportB.
A.public institutions         B.private schools
C.uniformity of education     D.high quality of education
64.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
ZZ.High-quality private schools deserve to be saved.
A.If the tuition is raised,the enrollment goes down.
B.There are many cases to show that public schools are better than private schools.
C.Private schools have more money than public schools.
65.Which of the following ways could possibly save private schools according to the writer?C
A.Raising tuition.                   B.Full enrollment.
C.National awareness and support.    D.Reduction of rising cost.

20.French people pride themselves on their delicious foods,such as cheese,baguettes and croissants(two kinds of food).In fact,food is an important part of French culture.Families and friends spend hours over the dinner table each night.It is the opposite of the fast-food habit common in other parts of the West.
It's the reason why the French are very angry that a McDonald's is opening beneath Paris's most famous museum:the Louvre (卢浮宫).The new restaurant will be the 1,142nd McDonald's in France,and will open in the underground approach to the museum.But many French people can't understand why this American chain is opening in the heart of French culture.
    However,McDonald's is paying no notice to the complaint.McDonald's now has 31,000 chains worldwide.Tourists are hungry,and opening chains in tourist spots pays well.
    There is another chain threatening France's heritage.This time it is coffee rather than burgers.As more and more Starbucks open in Paris,traditional French cafés are forced to close.
    The trouble with American companies opening chains throughout the world is the destructive effect they can have on a country's culture.How can a small,independent coffee shop compete with the multi-billion dollar chain?You can go to a Starbucks in any city in the world,but you can only go to a Parisian café in France.
    Responsibility is with the tourists.A McDonald's wouldn't open so near the Louvre if it weren't not going to make money.Similarly,a Pizza Hut wouldn't overlook (俯瞰) Egypt's Great Pyramid if no one wants to sit in it.Maybe next time you visit the Great Wall,you should think twice before ordering a Cappuccino in the Starbucks.
58.Why are the French very angry when a McDonald's is opening beneath the Louvre?
D
A.Because they will spend many hours in McDonald's.
B.Because French food culture is very impressive.
C.Because they also have the fast-food habit.
D.Because they are proud of their own food.
59.The McDonald's will be located in the underground approach to the museum becauseB.
A.the complaints of the French are useless
B.opening a chain in tourist spot is rewarding
C.McDonald's tends to be in the heart of culture
D.it will help to attract more tourists for the museum
60.What is the trouble with American companies opening chains all over the world?C
A.The traditional stores of a country are forced to fight back.
B.The traditional stores of a country become dependant.
C.They have negative effect on a country's culture.
D.The multi-billion dollar chain can't be matched.

17.This is a true story from Guyana.One day,a boy took a piece of paper from a box.He made a paper ball and pushed it into his nose.He couldn't get it out.He ran crying to his mother.His mother couldn't get the paper out,either.A week later,the paper was still in the boy's nose.His nose began to have a bad smell.

As she spoke,she shook some black pepper (胡椒粉)on the child's nose.The child gave a mighty sneeze and the paper flew out.His mother was surprised.May told his mother to take the boy to the seaside for a swim,for the salt water would go up his nose and stop the bad smell.
