He ordered 350 items for his marathon take away, which had to be flown on a 12-hour Thai Airways flight from Heathrow. “It may seem a long way to fly food,”said a restautant spokesman. “But I suppose that what the Prince likes the Prince gets.

The illegal drug trade in the US. Is a multi-billion dollar industry. Until now, the war on drugs(毒品) focused on undercover(秘密的) police officers who arrested dealers selling drugs on street corners.
But a law passed by Congress in 1984 is taking over. The law allows judges to seize(没收) the assets(资产) of drug dealers. It seems to be doing the trick. After a slow start and some bureaucratic(官僚主义的) problems, the government in now seizing billions of dollars and hundreds of luxuriou7s cars, expensive homes, businesses, airplanes and other goods from dealers.
Federal agents say that’s worse punishment than jail. Drug Kingpins take jail in stride(从容地对付) because it’s just part of the cost of doing business. But taking away their assets strikes at the heart of their business.
Since 1985, federal agents have seized more than $900 million in drug dealers’ assets, including 2,000 pieces of property, 500 boats, 54 businesses and 245 airplanes. The goods are sold at auctions and the money from the sales goes to the federal government.
Some police departments use the money to buy vehicles, weapons and surveillance(监视) equipment, to pay narcotics officers to work overtime or to build new prisons.
However some critics aren’t sold on the new law. Lawyers who defend drug dealers say the law is unconstitutional(违反宪法的) because it allows the government to take money that drug dealers would otherwise use to pay attorneys. That means the drug dealers must use lower-priced attorneys. But the government contends the Constitution guarantees only the right to an adequate defense, not the right to an expensive lawyer.
Critics also say the government went too far when it mounted a campaign (开始实施一项计划) called Zero Tolerance. Under the program, the government gook cars, boats and other belongs of people found carrying even the smallest amount of marijuana across the Canadian or Mexican borders. The program was finally ended because of so many complaints.
If the Supreme Count finds the new law constitutional, the government probably will step up its seizure of drug profits Most Americans would welcome the idea with open arms. Without adopting new, more successful means, the police will never be able to control the booming drug trade, one of the most serious problems that America faces today.
61．Drug dealers have a lot of cash and other assets.
A．a new law is proving effective against drug dealers
B．police are taking drugs and buying vehicles and weapons
C．police are taking drugs and buying vehicles and weapons
D．the government has gone too far in seizing assets
62．Arresting small drug dealers on street corners_______.
A．isn’t the main focus of enforcment anymore.
B．was a successful way to stop drugs.
C．is allowed under a new federal law
D．strikes at the heart of their business
63．Police like the new law because______.
A．they like cars, planes and property.
B．they can sell goods at auctions.
C．they can buy vehicles and weapons.
D．they take jail in strike.
64．Under the Zero Tolerance program_______.
A．the government took away cars and boats from people who had only very small amounts of drugs.
B．the government complained because people were arrested
C．major drug dealers lost their assets.
D．police departments worked overtime.
65．The idea of the new law is_______.
A．the police should get vehicles and property from drugs.
B．jails are too crowded with small drug dealers.
C．drug dealers care more about losing their assets than about jail.
D．drug dealers are entitled to good lawyers but not expensive ones.
D
An American teacher shortage that left many schools without qualified people running classrooms appears to be ending. Maths, science and English language teachers are still few and far between(稀少). And schools in inner cities and rural(乡村的) areas must anxiously beat the bushes for good teachers. But majority of schools report a surge(快速增长) in applications from qualified teachers. Colleges that train teachers also are seeing enrollment(注册，入学) increases of up to 50 percent.
Teaching is a career that provides many rewards besides money：a chance to help and to shape the next generation. But as with any job, salary helps determines whether a person chooses to enter the field(从事一项职业) and how long he or she will stick it our.
In the early 1980s, many teachers threw in the towel. They up and left the classroom for better paying jobs in industry. They were especially unhappy that teaching offered little chance for advancement or pay increases. Scho0ols in inner cities and rural areas were hit hardest by he lack of qualified teachers. The handwriting was on the wall. (迹象明显) In response, almost every state increased the pay for teachers. Today, teachers earn from
$13,000 to 58,000. The average teacher’s salary in the US is $18,000.
Instead of teachers fleeing to industry, the reverse in often occurring. People are leaving industry, the military, and other fields to become teachers. Colleges say one of every 12 freshmen has his eye in teaching, up from one in 20 a few years ago.
The new teachers are likely to have better skill test, something every few years. Teacher training programs at colleges have started to emphasize academic subjects, including maths, reading and science, rather than educational theory.
Today’s teachers are demanding a voice in how their schools are run. At some schools, teachers interview candidates for principal and must sign off on expenditures of money. But teachers generally still complain they don’t have enough power in schools.
66．What does the underlined word“threw in the towel”in the third paragraph mean?
A．took up B．gave up C．worked on D．gave away
67．One reason teaching is becoming popular is because________.
A．schools are paying higher salaries to teachers.
B．People are leaving industry, the military and other fields to teach
C．New teacher are likely to have better skills
D．Inner city and rural schools are beating the bushes.
68．Teachers in some schools interview candidates for principal because_______.
A．they want the principal to be nice to them
B．they want the principal to give them higher salaries
C．they want more control over how their schools are run
D．their training has started to emphasize academic subjects, including maths and science
69．Teaching is like other professions because people_______.
A．consider salaries and working conditions when deciding whether to become a teacher
B．teachers, doctors and lawyers have similar jobs
C．want a bigger voice in how their professions are run
D．should not consider salaries and working conditions when deciding to enter a profession
70．The main idea of the article is __________.
A．teachers are a lot smarter than they were 10 years ago.
B．teachers went more of a say in how their schools are run.
C．the average salary for teachers has increased 12 percent to 2 percent in recent years.
D．so many people want to become teachers that a teacher shortage is just about over.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time ; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use .Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s . In the same way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught to
Walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle——compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependedent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if the wants it , what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
If it is a matter of right answers, as it many be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such tiring work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, marks. Let us throw them all out, and let he children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

A．They give children correct answers.
B．They point out children’s mistakes to them.
