27、mes has been the most cheerful and anticipated(预先的) event throughout Beijing ever since Beijing was rewarded the right to host the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, yet the focus should be shifted from making a promise to carrying out the promise made. In my point of view, to bridge the gap between the pro
28、mise and reality, Beijing still has a long way to go. To begin with, basic-structure construction should be the primary concern. Such basic-structures as communications and transportation system and facilities ought to draw our constant attention. For example, traffic jam has been an age-old headach
29、e in Beijing. The scene of long queues of vehicles worming their way inch by inch will surely cause great disorder, and impair the image of the city meanwhile. Next, to add charm to convenience, overall city planning is quite necessary. Time permitting, a redesign of city plan and adjustment of arch
30、itectural style would provide a better environment for cultivating the characteristic, mixing oriental elegance(东方的雅致) with international greatness, will tower aloft(在高处) among surrounding architectures. To achieve such effect, Beijing shall seek opinions from first-rate architects and make an overa
31、ll plan. Thirdly, quality of the population should be improved. To make an international metropolis, both “hardware” and “software” are important. However, Rome was not built in a day. To carry out the promise of “New Beijing, Great Olympics”, deeds speak louder than words.56. What does the underlin
32、ed word “metropolis” in paragraph 2 mean ?A . suburb B. small city C. capital city D. town 57. Which sentence is not true according to the authors opinion in the passage?A.

33、In order to host the 2008 Olympic Games, Beijing has preparations to make in many ways.D. Hardware” refers to quality of people in Beijing.58. How many aspects does the author mention to prepare for the Olympics in Beijing?A. two: basic-structure construction and peoples qualityB. three: basic-struc
34、ture construction, traffic problem and overall city planning.C. two: basic-structure construction and overall city planningD. three: basic-structure construction, overall city planning and peoples quality.59. What can be inferred from the text?A. Beijing is going to host the 2008 Olympic Games.B. To
35、 carry out the promise of “New Beijing, Great Olympics”is a long-term work.C. Traffic jams will cause a lot of trouble and make people feel sick.D. An overall city plan is to make Beijing a city with eastern and western cultures mixed together.B.A caring mother is the single most important factor in
36、 preventing teenagers from abusing(滥用)drugs and alcohol,researchers said on Friday. An international study showed that teenagers living with both parents are less likely to suffer from alcohol and drug problems,and a strong maternal bond is the most effective way to fight against them. “These findin
37、gs suggest that living with both parents may prevent drug use.”said Dr.McArdle of Newcastle University in northern England, who led the study.“They also suggest that attachment(感情眷念),particularly to mothers,is a more effective factor and that this is truly across cultures and substances.” The report
38、, which is published in the journal Addiction, involved nearly 4,000 teenagers in England, Ireland, Italy, Germany and the Netherlands. They were questioned about their use of several kinds of drugs and alcohol. The teenagers also filled in questionnaires about their relationship with their parents
39、and grandparents, how well they were supervised(监护)after school and whether they were allowed to meet friends at home. “Both the quality of family relationships and the structure of families have significant influences on youth drug use,” McArdle said in a statement. But he added a strong maternal b
40、ond offered the greatest protection against developing drug habits. The rate of drug abuse among teenagers living with both parents and who had a good relationship with their mother was 16.6 percent. If either factor was missing ,the drug abuse rate rose to 32 percentMore than 42 percent of teenager
41、s living in one parent families who did not have a strong bond with their mother used drugs Drug prevention campaigns in British schools and on television warn teenagers about the danger of drugs and alcohol but McArdle said no one is dealing with the problem of their parents responsibility.60.The p
