24、er author JK. Rowling has won her battle to prevent the further publication(出版)of a photograph of her son. “We hope to give our children a normal family life. We really thank the court for giving our children protection(保护)from unwanted photography；this ruling will make a difference to their lives”
25、said JK. Rowling. Anthony Clarke，one of the judges hearing the case(案件)，said the child of a famous parent should have the same rights as that of “ordinary” parents. “Parents who are not in the public eye can surely expect not to have photographs of their child published in the media(媒体)，and so shoul
26、d a famous parent，”he said in the judgment. The photographs were taken on November 8, 2004 in Edinburgh while David，then aged under two，was being pushed in a buggy by his parents. They were published in a Sunday Express magazine，causing Rowling,42，and her husband to sue Sunday Express and the photo
27、agency Big Pictures and try to block further publication.

30、and B DJ.K. Rowling60. This article belongs to_.A. news B. science C. novel D. letterBAccording to the American Automobile Association (美国汽车联合会), since 1964 all cars sold in the United States have been equipped with seat belts (These are also called safety belts. ). Many studies of automobile accide
31、nts have shown that safety belts can save lives. One study showed that forty percent of those killed in auto accidents could have been saved if they had been wearing seat belts.Unfortunately belts are worn only by a small percentage of drivers and passengers-about fifteen percent in cities, and only
32、 nine percent in small towns. And safety belts cannot protect people who do not wear them.In order to find out what kinds of people do wear seat belts a study was made in several cities of the United States. The following facts were learned about those who use safety belts:1. They do not smoke while
33、 driving.2. They have had more education than non-users.3. They know someone who was injured (but not killed) in an automobile accident.Advertisements based on these facts have been printed in newspapers and magazines in order to teach people the importance of using seat belts. But these advertiseme
34、nts have not helped much. Some people believe there should be a law requiring drivers and passengers to use safety belts. In Australia, where there is such a law, deaths in auto accidents have decreased twenty-four percent.61. Most people dont use belts because_.A. they havent realized the importanc
35、e of using safety belts.B. many cars have not been equipped with safety belts.C. the safety belts have proved to be useless.D. they dont think the advertisements give them correct advice.62. Which of the following might not have been printed in newspapers and magazines to teach people the importance
36、 of using safety belts?A. Many studies have shown that safety belts can save lives.B. People in small towns should also use seat belts.C. Driving without wearing the belt breaks the law.D. Smokers should not smoke while they are driving.63. According to the study made in the United States, if driver
37、s all wear seat belts, the deaths in auto accidents can reduce by _.A. 9% B. 11% C. 24% D. 40%64. Which of the following is the writers attitude?A. He insists that a law be made to require drivers and passengers to use seat belts.B. He wonders why the advertisements cant give people much help.C. He
38、regrets that only a small part of people use the helpful belts.D. He hopes that studies about the use of seat belts will be further made.65. The underlined word “decreased” means_.A. add to B. become less C. still remain D. fall toCImagine a classroom missing the one thing thats long been considered
39、 a necessary part to reading and writing? Paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test paper. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment. A paperless classroom is what more and more schools are trying to achieve. Students dont do any handwriting in th
40、is class. Instead, they use palm size, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every students personal computer. Having computers also means that students can use the Web. They can look up information on any subject theyre studying from
41、maths to social science. High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web to learn about the war in Afganistan over one year ago. We could touch every side of the country through different sites? From the forest to refugee camps (难民营), she said. Using a book that
42、s three or four years old is impossible. And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, US, students take tests on their own computers. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own electronic grade book. A paperless classroom is a big
43、 step towards reducing the waste of paper. High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky, US, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to each student. Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers, she said. But, with all this technology, theres always the ri
44、sk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students.66. What does the part of the last sentence in the first paragraph, “run out of ink at the critical moment”, mean?A. Pens may not write we
45、ll at the critical moment.B. Pens get lost easily, so you may not find them at the critical moment.C. Pens may have little or no ink at the critical moment.D. Pens use ink, while pencils dont.67. In a paperless classroom, what is a must?A. Pens. B. Computers. C. Information. D. Texts.68. The high sc

47、l benefit _ the most.A. students B. teachers C. trees D. computers70. What does the phrase in the last paragraph, “break down”, mean?A. Break into pieces. B. Stop working. C. Fall down. D. Lose control.DAlthough the Arabian camel，or dromedary(单峰骆驼)，can go without drinking for a long while，its hump (
48、驼峰) does not store water as is commonly believed. The real secret of the animals unusual ability to store water lies in the fact that very little of the camels water is lost by evaporation(蒸发)through the skin. Instead of sweating out great quantities of water，the camels body temperature rises，someti
49、mes as much as eleven degrees，to compensate for external（外部的）heat. When a camel does require water, it replaces only the amount lost since its last drink.71.
