    Just like the planners for the Beijing Olympics in 2008，the planners for the London Olympics in 2012 are making sure that the Games will benefit the people of their city．London is planning to hold the most environmentally friendly Olympic Games ever．For example，a wind turbine (涡轮机) is going to be built to the north of the Olympic Park．London’s Olympic planners say that it will have blades(叶片)about 40 meters and that they plan to use it after the Games to deliver (传送) energy to homes and businesses in the local area for at least 20 years．

The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) plans to use the turbine to produce energy for the Olympic Park in East London．It is expected to produce the same amount of energy that 1,200 homes use in a year．They’re also hoping to make a big impression on the thousands of visitors in London for the Games．It’s planned to be 120 metres high over the Olympic Park in East London when the Olympic Games take place in 2012．

The ODA is also hoping to use other‘green’energy sources (来源)．Solar energy from the summer sun and hydro (水的) power from the River Thames are also possible future energy for this part of the capital．

London also plans to provide a clean modern transport system for the Games． A train called Javelin(which will travel at up to 225 km per hour)is going to link(连接)the Olympic Park with central London in just seven minutes．

The organizers hope to use the new Channel Tunnel Rail Link at St Pancras in central London to bring even more people to the Games．Eurostar trains between London and Pairs and between London and Brussels will be often and these high-speed trains are going to reduce the number of flights from Europe needed to deliver the sportsmen and audience to London．In addition，with new railway lines and stations in the local area，transport planners are aiming for the rail network to deliver 240，000 passengers an hour to the Park with a train arriving every 15 seconds．In this way planners hope to reduce the need for planes，cars and buses and therefore make London‘greener’in 2012．

    Householders are being made to collect their own mail because postmen are not bothering (费力) to deliver parcels (包裹) and letters that must be signed for．Instead，they simply leave cards saying“Sorry you were out”without even ringing the doorbell to check．

Customers then have to collect their mail from their local Post Offiee．

    Consumer Watchdog Postwatch said it had received 150 complaints (投诉) from Royal Mail customers across Britain who received“Sorry you were out”notices when they were actually at home．

    Most parcels and all recorded delivery letters need to be signed for．But some postmen do not seem to want to wait for householders to answer a knock at the door．Others，employed (雇用)  as short-term workers．have been known only to deliver the cards．

    “We have had complaints that postmen are leaving these cards even when people are in，” a spokesman for Postwatch said．“And we have also had customers telling us that short-term postmen are not allowed to take signed-for mail to the door，so they had to drop these notices through the letterbox instead．It is completely unacceptable that this mail is not being delivered．The recorded mail service is more expensive and is meant to be a top quality(品质) delivery service，but this is not the case．”

    Musician Adrian Bradbury，38，complained to Postwatch after he received two cards　through the letterbox at his South London home while he was there caring for his baby　daughter．He ran after the postman，only to find he did not have the parcels with him．The　postman told him that he was a short―term worker and said the parcels could be picked up from

初三英语试卷 第7页(共10页)

the post office．More than three weeks later，Mr.Bradbury has not had a chance to pick up his parcels．“I am so busy looking after the baby，”he said，“The parcels are probably presents for her．”

    The Royal Mail said it knew about the situation in Mr．Bradbury’s area and it was a way“to simplify(简化)things for new short-term workers that came in”．

The Communication Workers Union criticized (批评) the Royal Mail．“If the managers are encouraging this practice，the CWU condemns (谴责) it．For the Royal Mail to deliver the service customers deserve(应得)，the company needs to spend money on properly trained and paid long―term workers．”

56．Customers complain that the postmen leave cards saying“Sorry you were out”　　　．

    A．when there is nobody in

    B．after they ring the doorbell

    C．without checking if there is someone in

    D．to save time and money

    A．customers get a very good delivery service without paying so much

    B．the Royal Mail spends much money on a top quality delivery service

    C．customers have to pay more money for better delivery service

    D．the Royal mail doesn’t provide the service customers deserve

58．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

    B．The recorded mail is more expensive and should be signed for．

    C．Mr．Bradbury is so angry because the parcels for his daughter are lost．

    D．The Royal Mail should be condemned if it doesn’t change the situation．

59．From the passage，we can infer (推断) that Postwatch is probably a(n) 　　　．
