China was to reform school curriculum(课程) to ease the burden put on children by pushy teachers and parents eager to see them succeed in an increasingly competitive society.
Chinese pupils were suffering from poor eyesight in increasing numbers and at a younger age. Tiring homework and increasing exam pressure were to blame. The primary reason is the traditional East Asian culture in which all parents want their kids to become dragons or and phoenixes. Too much emphasis is placed on "diplomas" (文凭）and exam scores.
That was exacerbated by the fact that
The Education Ministry would cut the difficulty of the textbooks, reduce homework, make classes more interesting and limit the number of tests. Another problem the government had to deal with was the education of 13 million rural children who swarmed（涌入）into the cities with their parents working as migrant workers. More than 100 million peasants across the country migrate to the booming cities every year for manual labor and small-time businesses.
But policy hurdles for them to settle in the cities abound, including those that prevent their children from receiving a good education. An estimated 23 million "left-behind children" of migrant workers stay in the countryside
"The government has ordered urban public schools to open up to the 7. 88 million migrant children of school age," Yuan said, adding private schools are also allowed to accommodate（接纳） some of them.
73. What makes Chinese pupils become nearsighted at a younger age?
A. Exam scores are not regarded to be valuable
B. Parents expect their children to become dragons and phoenixes
C. Dragons and phoenixes are part of traditional Chinese culture.
D. Pupils are asked to do homework more and more.
74. The underlined word "exacerbated" in Paragraph 3 may mean
A. improved. B. proved.
C. worsened. D. lightened.
75. How can Chinese government solve the education problem of migrant children?
A. By allowing them to take fewer exams.
B. By making textbooks easier for them.
C. By setting up more private schools for them.
D. By asking urban public schools to admit them
76. What's the main idea of this passage?
A. China will reduce burden on school children.
B. Left-behind children in the countryside receive no education.
C. Children of migrant workers will have a better education.
D. The education of the migrant children receives attention.

Tourism probably started in Roman times. Rich Romans visited friends and family who were working in another part of the Roman empire. When the empire broke down, this kind of tourism stopped.
In the early 17th century, the idea of the “Grand Tour” was born. Rich young English people sailed across the English Channel. They visited the most beautiful and important European cities of the time, including Paris in France, and Rome and Venice in Italy. Their tours lasted for two to four years, and the tourists stayed a few weeks or months in each city. The “Grand Tour” was an important part of young people's education—but only for the rich.
In the 18th century, tourism began to change. For example, people in the UK started to visit some towns, such as Bath to “take the waters”. They believed that the water there was good for their health. So large and expensive hotels were built in these towns.
In the 19th century, travel became much more popular and faster. When the first railways were built in the 1820s, it was easier for people to travel between towns, so they started to go for holidays at the seaside. Some started to have holidays in the countryside as cities became larger, noisier and dirtier.
Travelling by sea also became faster and safer when the first steamships were built. People began to travel more to faraway countries.
The 20th century saw cars become more and more popular among ordinary people. Planes were made larger, so ticket prices dropped and more people used them.
Thus tourism grew. In 1949, Russian journalist Vladimir Raitz started a company called Horizon Holidays. The company organizes everything—plane tickets, hotel rooms, even food—and tourists pay for it all before they leave home. The package tour (包办旅行) and modern tourism industry was born.
The first travel agency in China was set up as early as 1949.But tourism did not take_off until 1978.In 2002, the industry was worth 500 billion yuan and became an important part of China's social development.
1．In the early times, the travellers ________.
A．all came from China B．were very young and strong
C．had lots of money D．travelled by boat
2．________ played the most important role in the tourism development.
A．Education B．Money
C．Transportation D．People's ideas
3．Modern tourism industry was born ________.
A．in 1949 B．in Roman times
C．in the early 17th century D．in the 19th century
4．In which century did travel become much more popular and faster?
A．17th. B．18th. C．19th. D．20th.
5．The underlined phrase “take off ”in the last paragraph means
________.
A．rise into the air B．develop very fast
C．remove hats and clothes D．bring down the prices
