The world is divided into two main parts. The diffefence is that one part is rich and the other is poor. In the poor part,a lot of people never get enough to eat. In the rich part a lot of people eat too much. In one part,children starve and in the other,a lot of people get fatter and fatter and have to go diets,or do special exercise in order to lose weight.

　　The poorer countries are called“the developing countries”,they have special problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow anything on. The land can be improved but a lot of things must be done first. People must be educated. Water must be found.

　　Many of these problems are too big for one country to solve alone. Help should be given by the richer countries but it must be the right sort of help. Money is not enough. The developing countries must be helped to help themselves.

　　But rich countries have problems,too. They are not always very pleasant places to live in. Usually,it is the things that make them rich also make them unpleasant.

　　Sometimes the air is too filthy to breathe and the rivers arc too filthy to swim in or to take water from. Perhaps almost everybody has a car but the roads are too crowded to drive along. Sometimes,even in these countries,large numbers of people do not have decent(体面的)houses to live in.

　　Something will have to be done about these problems,too. The air and the river will have to be cleaned,and more houses will have to be built.

Travel can be a lifesaver. But in today’s economy (经济) with airlines adding new fees almost daily and ticket prices sharply on the rise, many have written off travel as too expensive. However, with a few saving tricks and a little research, there are still lots of great deals to be had on airline tickets and more.

Early Bird Gets the Deal.

Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available. Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights. Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest.www.zxxk.com

What Wouldn’t a Business Traveler do?

Flying when business travelers don’t can save you big money. Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays, so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days. Airlines will usually lower their prices on these days to aggressively try and fill empty seats.

Fly to popular places at unpopular times. The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Again, to try and fill more empty seats, the airlines will lower prices and offer better deals to get people to fly during this time of the year.

Package Deals

Many times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate. Most travel sites have package rates available. Often, the entire package (hotel, airfare, rental car) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site. Even if you don’t need the rental car, with the money you’ve saved on the flight, you can afford to take a taxi. These deals are especially good on last minute bookings.

With a little inside knowledge and some good timing, you can get yourself a steal on a ticket to the vacation you thought was out of reach.

It is reported that conservation groups in North America have been arguing about the benefits and dangers of wolves. Some groups believe wolves should be killed. Other people believe wolves must be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderndss(荒野)

                            For Killing Wolves

  In Alaska，the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago，because hunters were killing hundreds 0f them forsport .However．1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur．So the woIf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply．

    A wolf naturally eats animals in the deer family. People in the wilderness also hunt deer for food．Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant life．When the deer can’t find enough food，they die．

   If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer，their prey(猎物)will disappear some day．And the wolves will．too．So we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecology．If we killed more wolves，we would save them and their prey from dying out．We’d also  save some farm animals．

    In another northern state，wolves attack cows and chickens for food．Farmers want the  government to send biologists to study the problem．They believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small woIf population．

                           Against Killing Wolves

  If you had lived long ago，you would have heard many different stories about the dangerous  wolf．According to most stories，hungry wolves often kill people for food．Even today，the stories of the“big bad woIf'＂will not disappear．

    But the fact is wolves are afraid of people．and they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smell．When wolves eat other animals，they usually kill the very young．or the sick and injured .The strongest survive .No kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had lived．And has always been a law of nature.

  Although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves，we say it is nonsense!Researchers  have found wolves and their prey living in balance．The wolves keep the deer population from  becoming too large,and that keeps a balance in the wilderness plant life．

    The real problem is that the areas where wolves can live are being used bv people．Even if wilderness land is not used directly for human needs．the wolves can’t always find enough food .So they travel to the nearest source,which is often a farm．Then there is danger．The“big bad wolf”has arrived! And everyone knows what happens next．

60．According to the passage，some people in North America favor killing wolves for all the following reasons EXCET that            ．

A．there are too many wolves

62．According to those against killing wolves，when wolves eat other animals，        ．

A．they never eat strong and healthy ones

B．they always go against the law of nature

C．they might help this kind of animals survive in nature

D．they disturb the ecological balance in the wilderness

63．The last sentence“And everyone knows what happens next”implies that in such cases     ．

A．farm animals will be in danger and have to be shipped away

B．woIves will kill people and people will in turn kill them

C．wolves wilI find enough food sources on famls

D．people will leave the areas where wolves can live

Some people are never right．They never have good luck．They usually do the wrong thing and say the wrong thing．And even if what they say or do is OK, they as a rule say it or do it at the wrong time．So these people always have problems．They often break dishes．They sometimes miss buses and airplanes．Mr Neff is different．He is always right．He is never wrong．He usually has good luck．He seldom has problems．He never breaks dishes．He never misses buses or airplanes．Even if he does miss them, it is always the fault of the buses or air planes．Mr Neff knows almost everything．He doesn't ask questions; he answers questions．He never says, “I don't know．”

       If you take a look at the best-selling books in the UK these days, it is almost certain that there will be a lot of autobiographies in that list. Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela and actor Michael J Fox have all written them.

       An autobiography is the story of a person’s life, written by that person. It is usually a very famous person who might tell us all about their childhood, how they became famous and any other interesting things that have happened in their lives.

      Traditionally, someone would write an autobiography when they were older because they had had a long, successful life. However, these days there are many magazines with stories and photos of the stars which sell very well. Reality TV shows are extremely popular and lots of people become famous very easily just from being on the TV rather than being able to sing or act well. As a result, people become famous very quickly and as soon as they are famous, a lot of money can be made from writing an autobiography, even if they are very young.

       So now you can find an autobiography from almost everyone who is in the public eye. Even though we can follow the lives of the stars very closely on TV or in magazines nowadays, we maybe don’t know how they live their lives from day to day. Autobiographies often give the information we never knew about the stars. The British public are very curious to find out more so they are very eager to read autobiographies.

       Not every star wants to write though. Sometimes stars employ writers to write their life stories for them. The writer will interview the star, listen to everything they want to say, record interviews and then write the book based on their words. David Beckham did this with his book My Side.

       Not everyone likes to read books regularly but they might like to read about the lives of stars. Autobiographies are helping to get more British people reading books. About 100 million autobiographies are sold in Britain every year. More stars depend on them for extra income and as more of these books appear in the shops, more people are sure to keep buying them.

68．An autobiography is         .

       A．always a best-seller in the UK

       B．someone’s life story normally written by themselves

       C．a magazine with stories and photos of a star

       D．a program that tells us the lives of the stars nowadays

69．Traditionally, someone would write his autobiography when             .

       A．they became famous

       B．they wanted to make money

       C．they were older and had achieved a lot

       D．they wanted to share their childhood with the readers

70．The writer probably would agree that autobiographies are good in that            .

       A．they tell us a lot about the everyday life of famous people

       B．famous people earn a lot of money by selling them

       C．they encourage people to read

       D．we can learn a lot from them
