III．完形填空。（每小题2分，共20分）

From Monday to Friday, most people are busy working or studying． But in the evenings and weekends, they are   42   and enjoy themselves． Some watch television or go to the cinema, others     43   sports． This is decided by their own interests．

    There are many different ways to spend our free time． Almost everyone has some kind of hobby: it may be something from   44   stamps to making model planes． Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don’t cost anything   45  ． Some collections are worth a lot of money, others are valuable only to their owners．

    I know a man who has a   46   collection worth several thousand dollars． A short time ago, he bought an unusual fifty-cent piece which   47   him $250! He was very happy about it and thought the price was all right． On the other hand, my youngest brother collects   48  ． He has almost 600 of them, but I wonder if they are worth any money．   49  , to my brother, they are quite valuable．   50   makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection．

    That’s what a hobby means, I think． It is something we   51   to do in our free time． The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is．

42． A．lucky             B．clever         C．funny               D．free

43． A．think about        B．join              C．take part in          D．take care of

44． A．collecting           B．getting        C．printing             D．making

45． A．first of all       B．at all           C．of all kinds          D．in all

46． A．book             B．cloth           C．stamp               D．coin

47． A．spend             B．took           C．cost                D．waste

48． A．stamps            B．match boxes     C．pens                D．model planes

49． A．So               B．However       C．Because             D．But

50． A．Nothing           B．Everything     C．Anything                   D．Something

Do you know something about the holiday camps in Hong Kong? The students in Hong Kong used to take part in an English holiday camp in their holidays． And their parents weren’t with them． Though they were very young．

Now they still enjoy taking part in many kinds of holiday camps without their parents． Many parents let their children take part in some kinds of holiday camps in order to learn some practical knowledge in their life． And also learn some knowledge about living skills, science, reading and writing… The most important for the children is to learn to look after themselves．

Holiday camps in Hong Kong are not so expensive． Most of families can afford to send their children there for further study, for making their bodies strong… And the government never charges for them．

It is said that students in Hong Kong have much knowledge about many things． Perhaps it has something with the kinds of holiday camps．

57．Students in Hong Kong like to take part in the       ．

A．holiday camps              B．English holiday camps

Some people believe that schools will no longer be necessary in the near future． They said that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no longer any need for school buildings, classes or teachers． Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I can’t imagine how our society will be, In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better． We should invent a new knid of school that is linked to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies． Technological companies should create learning programs for schools． Scientists or professors could give talks through the Internet． TV networks and local stations could develop programs about things students are actually studying in school． Labs could set up websites to show new technology so students could see it on the Internet．

Is this a dream? No． There are already many cities where this is beginning to happen． Here the whole city is linked to the Internet, and learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office． Businesses provide programs for the schools and the society． The schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home． Because everyone can be on the Internet, older people use it as much as younger ones． And everyone can visit distant libraries and museums as easily as nearby ones． How will this new kind of school change the usual way of learning? It is too early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it． Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as well; and we will all learn something from the Internet．

62．In the writer’s opinion,       ．

   A． more schools should be built    B． schools are necessary

   C． schools are not necessary       D． there should be fewer schools

63．What does “a new kind of school” mean?

   A． A newly built school．   

B． There are many new students in the school．

   C． There are many new teachers in the school．

D． A school, which is linked to Internet．

64．On the Internet, you       ．

    A． can view the new technology    B． can see everything except new technology

    C． can learn nothing             D． can do whatever you like

65．Which of the following sentences is NOT true?

   A． The schools provide computer labs for those who have no personal computers．

   B． If you are not a student, you cannot view the new technology on the Internet．

   C． On the Internet, you can visit another city’s library as easily as the local people．

  D． Technology will change our way of learning．

66．What is the best title for this passage?       

   A． Internet            B． School   

C． New Technology     D． Will Technology Take the Place of Schools?
