25、he arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will attend their nearest school.The new plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School.

61、1-45 DCDCB 46-50 CDBBA 51-55 ACCAD书面表达Dear editor,I am writing to tell you about the discussion weve had about the relationship between economic development and environment protection.Some students believe we should never sacrifice environment for economy. They think the present environmental proble
62、ms are largely caused by rapid economic development. For example, farmable land is decreasing because of the industrial development and the development of cities.However, other students think it unnecessary to consider environmental problems now and economic development comes first. They believe tha

They can be dealt with later when we have the time and money.I think the second view is completely wrong. The purpose of economic development is to provide a comfortable and happy life for our people. We should aim at sustainable development and a balance between the two.Yours, Li Hua
