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 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 group of heroes 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 with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. 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 star is a bit of a mess. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.
A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is 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 the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher, or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear 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 the American youngsters are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.
60. The hero discussed in this article means a person ______.
A. who has done something brave
B. who plays an important role in a play
C. whom people greatly admire
D. who rides the waves and moves with the tides
61 .What is true of the groups mentioned in this article?
A. They are not fright but are good-looking.
B. They are rich but are strict with themselves.
C. They are talented in some area but lead an indecent life.
D. They are perfect in every way.
62. American young people will not admire ______.
A. a university professor B .a popular singer
C. a football player D. a film actress
63. What is the writer’s attitude towards American youth’s admiration for their heroes?
A. He is understanding. B. He is critical.
C. He is angry. D He is uninterested
C
Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn't easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn't exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin's work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin's grand entrance for a long time!
64. The text is mainly about_________.
A. a strange man
B. an unusual party
C. how roller skating began
D. how people enjoyed themselves in the 18th century
65. People thought Merlin was a dreamer because he________.

D. was full of imagination
66. Merlin put wheels under his shoes in order to_______.

B. arrive at the party sooner
C. test his invention
D. show his skill in walking on wheels
67. What is the main point the writer is trying to make in the last paragraph?

Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father, "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if you're dead."
Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt-- a mistake 75% of US population make every day. The big question is why.
There have been many myths about safety belt ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
Myth the Number One: It's best to be "thrown clear" of a serious accident.
Truth: Sorry, but any accident serious enough to "throw you clear" is able going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing. And chances are you'll have traveled through a windshield (挡风玻璃)or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times in cases where people are "thrown clear".
Myth Number Two: Safety-bets "trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
Truth: Sorry again, but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation, not to be trapped in them.
Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour (mph).
Truth: When two cars traveling at 30 mph hit each other, an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10 metres.
68. Why did Elizabeth say to her father, "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if you're dead"?
A. He was driving at great speed.
B. He was running across the street.
C. He didn't take his medicine on time.
D. He didn't have his safety belt on.
69. The reason father was in a hurry to get home was that he __________.
A. wasn't feeling very well
B. hated to drive in the dark
C. wanted to take some exercise
D. didn't want to be caught by the people
70. What is the advice given in the test?
A. Never drive faster than 30 miles an hour.
B. Never forget to wear the safety belt while driving.
C. Try your best to save yourself in a car accident.
D. Drive slowly while you're not wearing a safety belt.

Dear Editor,
Recently our class held a discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of advertisements.
Daily life needs advertisements because they can offer information on goods, services, culture, employment and so on. With advertisements, customers can save a lot of time in shopping. Advertisements also help factories or service providers find their market. In a word, advertisements have many advantages.
However, we also find advertisements a waste of time when we don’t need them, for example, when watching TV programs. To make things worse, some advertisements are misleading and cheating. Furthermore, huge advertising expenses are shared by consumers, which seems to be unfair.
…
Yours truly,
Li Hua
