Sea farming is one of the brightest hopes for finding an answer to the world food problem. Although it may be years before sea farming produces large quantities of food, it is already successful. One of its success is the growing of oysters (牡蛎), which are very good to eat.
Oyster farming is a big new business on Cape Cod, where large crops of oysters have been harvested. The waters there were famous for oysters until the supply gave out about fifteen years ago. “There's a whole age group of people who have never eaten oysters”, said Kari Touraine, manager of a company that grows oysters on nylon strings (尼龙线) hanging from metal frames (框架).
“For about twenty years the oyster has been in short supply, and our aim is to turn around this by using new, modem growing techniques (技术),” he explained.
“Wareham, on Cape Cod, is the first place in the US where oysters are being grown on frames just off the bottom of the sea”, said Mr. Touraine. “It’s been done successfully in Norway and Australia and, in the last few years, in Spain. The Japanese have used this form of sea farming for years, and they're the most successful, with a yearly crop of more than forty-six thousand pounds of oysters an acre.”
Mr. Touraine’s group grows on strings, away from the bottom so that the oyster’s natural enemies cannot reach them. “When an oyster can be kept away from enemies and live in unpolluted water with plenty to eat, he’ll grow fat”, Kari noted happily.
64. The off-bottom method _____ .
A. is used in at least 5 countries B. was used in Wareham fifteen years ago
C. is used to make oysters fat D. was introduced from Japan
65. The word “acre” in the fourth paragraph means _____.

C. unit(单位) of weight D. unit of height
66. The best title for the text is .
A. Oyster Supply B. Food on Strings
C. New Hope for Food D. Modem Growing Technique

There are many types of reports. A report is simply an account of something that has happened. The commonest are news reports. We get them in newspapers, over radio and on television. Sometimes cinemas also show us newsreels(新闻短片).
The main purpose of a newspaper is to provide news. If you examine a newspaper closely, you will find that there are all types of news: accidents, floods, fires, wars fashions (服装), sports, books, etc. The news covers everything that happens to people and their surroundings. Sometimes there are news items which are very amusing.
A news report is usually very short, except when it is about something very important, but it contains a lot of information. It is also written in short paragraphs. The first paragraph is in fact a summary of the news item. It gives all the necessary information: what, when, where, how and why. The other paragraphs give full details (细节) of the subject. There may also be interviews (采访) with people. The words actually spoken by them are within inverted commas(引号).
Often there are photographs to go with the news to make it more interesting.

When someone says, “Well, I guess I'll have to go to face the music,” it doesn’t mean he is planning to go to a concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being called in your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you did not do this or that. Terrible music, indeed, but it has to be faced. At some time or another, every one of us has had to “face the music”, especially as children. We can remember father’s angry voice: “I want to talk to you!” And only because we did not obey him. What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase “face the music” is known to every American, old and young. It is at least one hundred years old. Where did the expression come from?
The first explanation came from the American novelist James Fenimore Cooper. He said, in 1851, that expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings (舞台的两侧) to go on stage. After they got their clue(暗示) to go on , they often said, “It’s time to go to face the music.” And that is exactly what they did face the orchestra (乐队) which was just below the stage.
An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of the audience(观众) that might be friendly, or perhaps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to go out. If he did not, there would be no play. So “face the music” came to mean: having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice.
72. The expression “face the music” means ______.
A. plan to go to a concert
B. get one’s clue to do something
C. have to go through something far less pleasant
D. disobey what one's father says
73. The passage tells us that the expression was first used by _____ .
A. children B. novelists C. actors D. audience
74. In the last paragraph the Chinese meaning of the word “line” is _______.
A. 老板 B. 同事 C. 角色 D. 台词
75. Which of the following is not true?
A. The expression came from James Fenimore Cooper, an American novelist
B. The expression has a history of 100 years.
C. If someone doesn’t obey his boss, he will have to face the music.
D. Almost everyone has an unpleasant experience that he has had to face the music.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to our school. My name is Andrew Brown. I’m a history teacher. I’ll give you a quick introduction to the school before I show you around. Our school is called a “free school ”. This means that the pupils are free to choose what and how they want to learn.
The school opens at 9:00 am, but the children can arrive when they like, Most of them are in school by ten.
Now if you look through the door of that big room, you’ll see those children reading and drawing there. Four of the older boys are now on their way to the Car－drove to have their driving lessons. Several children are taking turns in the kitchen to help Miss Cabell with lunch. They all enjoy doing this. After lunch it’s someone else’s job to do the washing－up. This job is unpopular. After lunch the children go on with what they’ve been doing until 4:30. On Monday and Thursday the school is also open in the evening until 9:00 pm. On Wednesday afternoon there is a school meeting. On Friday we sometimes take the children to a museum. The school is also open every weekend for those children who want to come.
