Every country has its heroes .The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire .If you get a list of the heroes of a nation,it will tell you the potential(潜力)of that nation.
If today in America,you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choice would probably fall into three groups ,the first of which would be the rock stars-the people connected with rock music.There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model .The rock stars too often are involved(卷入)with drugs and their personal life is not all that good .The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion style.However,one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.
A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star.Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area-sports .However,too often the personal life of the sports stars is a bit of a mess (一团糟).Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of these stars.
A third group of hero is the TV or movie star .This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome.However,the personal life and conduct of too many actors are quite sad and they should not be held up as a model for young people.
Today,the rock star,the athlete,and the actor all have become models of the youth in America.Really,do you hear a young person say that this hero is a doctor ,a teacher , or a scientist?These people are not rich and do not weat fashionable clothes .However,they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.
What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes .They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for American young people are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors ,the future does not look too bright .
( )65.The hero discussed in this text means .
A.a person who has done something brave.
B.a person who is an important role in a play
C.a person people greatly admire
D.a person who can do well in sports
( )66.We can infer that not many young Americans admire .

A.Those who can make a fortune overnight.
B. Those who work in the interests of the people.
C.Those whose personal life is good.
D.Those who can express people’s feelings well.
( )68.What does the writer think of American youth’s admiration for their heroes?
A.He appreciates their view.
B.He can understand them.
C.He is not interested in talking about such problems.
D.He disagrees with them and feels worried about the future of the nation.

Dear editor,
You can find language pollution whenever you open newspaper or turn on yourTV set ,listen to a popular song or look at various advertisements. Language pollution exists almost everywhere and can especially be seen in the following places:

3.Words or expressions being used have a bad meaning .“Ba”,which means bully(欺凌弱小者) in Chinese ,is one example .I don’t know why they are interested in the name .“Ba”,a person who uses his strength to hurt weaker people or make them afraid .Now there are of goods,restaurants, even factories or firms, with.“Ba”,in their names.
4.Too many incorrect grammatical expressinos.Some films have strange names and incorrect grammatical sentences, “Ai ni mei shang liang ”,which means love you without consulting(商量),is grammatically incorrect and this kind of expression is now becoming popular.
Some language experts point out that language pollution must be done away with,which is an idea shared by myself and many others.

A greenhouse is a building made of glass which is used for keeping plants warm when the outside temperature is low.In a similar way there are several gases in the atmosphere which trap(捕捉)the heat produced by the sun and prevent it from escaping .These gases are known as“greenhouse gases”,and the way in which they trap heat in the atmosphere is called the“greenhouse effect”.This is not simply air pollution .Most of the main greenhouse gasses exist naturally in small amounts in our atmosphere,and without them earth would be 30 degrees colder and human life would not exist .In other words ,the greenhouse effect is a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us.
The problem is that in the last century and a half,we have been putting too many of these into the earth’s atmosphere by burning large quantities of coal and oil and by cutting down forests.The rapid increase in greenhouse gasses is making the world warmer.The world’s temperature has already gone up by half a degree this century.and the sea level has risen by 10 centimetres .If the amount of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)in the atmosphere doubles.there will probably be a rise in the earth’s temperature of between 1 and 4.This may seem a small increase,but it would be enough to cause major changes in geography and agriculture.Large areas of the world would be flooded,and some areas would become dry and unable to produce crops.It is important,too to consider that there may be a delay of about 30 years in the greenhouse effect.This means that we are probably experiencing only now the effect of the gases put into the atmosphere before the1960s.Since then ,our use of these gases has greatly increased.
( )77. “Greenhous effect”means .
A.the way in which gases are used for keeping plants warm
B.a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us
C.the way“greenhouse gases”trap heat on the earth
D.the whole course in which greenhouse gases prevent heat
( )78.If there were no greenhouse effect,. .
A.no plants would grow on our planet B.earth would be thirty degrees colder
C.man could not live on the earth D.all of the above answers are correct
( )79.Which of the following is not true?
A.Burning too much coal and oil produces of greenhouse gases.
B.It has become warmer on the earth more than in the past.
C.Gases put into the atmosphere now will effect the earth years later.
D.The temperature in a greenhouse in as high as that in the atmosphere.
( )80.This passage mainly deals with .
A.the concept and ham of greenhouse effect
B.the relation between greenhouse gases and man
C.the concept and change of greenhouse effect
D.the effect of the rise of the earth’s temperature
