10、ntury, Americans had little time for leisure activities and did not really approve of leisure. The Puritan ideal of hard work _41_ strong, and leisure was associated with the idle rich, _42_ called the leisure class. In the 19th century one book warned: True recreation must not interfere with our du
11、ty; must not injure health; must not waste money; must not waste time. At the end of that century, President James Garfield said the question was: What shall we do with our _43_ when we get it? Modern Americans have not found this a problem and can choose from a wide range of leisure activities. The
12、 British share the Protestant work ethics but have always believed that it is also good for people to have activities outside work. A _44_ saying warns that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Many people now believe that making time for relaxation after work is also necessary for the _45_ o
13、f good mental health. Some people, however, think that leisure time should be spent on _46_ activities and not just wasted. Children are often _47_ to develop an interest or hobby which they can pick up in their spare time. Many British people _48_ more about their leisure time than their work which
14、 is, for some, _49_ a means of getting money to live on .IV Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

16、ikes in front of him or allow 55 else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother refuses vegetables in the childs hearing, he is 56 to copy their words. Take it for granted that he likes everything and he probably 57 .Nothing healthful should be left out from the meal because of a
17、58 dislike. At meal times it is a good idea to give a child a small 59 and let him come back for a second helping rather than give him as 60 as he is likely to eat at all at once. Do not talk much to the child 61 meal times, but let him get on with his food, and do not 62 him to leave the table imme

21、salamanders(火蜥蜴) and lobsters, can regenerate（使再生）limbs they have lost. This means they can regrow a foot, a tail, or any other part of the body that has been cut or broken off. Although human cells are incapable of this, the human body is wonderfully resilient(有复原力的) in other ways. For one thing, i
22、t can withstand strong blows and still maintain its ability to function. The amazing recovery of Phineas Gage is a case in point.Phineas Gage, who was employed by the Rutland and Burlington Railroad, recovered from an injury that defied medical history.

24、al weeks Gage was disoriented and could not see through his left eye.

Theyre not there to slow drivers down and lower the road accidents; they just make money for the government. They trick us, cost us cold hard cash, disturb us from driv
35、ing properly and are unfair.Well, heres a surprising thing: what if there were facts that the boring cameras actually saved lives? Its a conclusion difficult to ignore when you look at whats happening in France, a country with a historically poor record of road safety.There were 16,617 road deaths i
36、n 1972 in France for example, but that dropped to 8412 by 1995 following rules such as compulsory seat belt wearing in 1990 and a lowering of the blood alcohol limit to 0.05 in 1995.Last year, the road deaths dropped below 5,000 for the first time, or 4.9 per cent less than 2004. Comparing road deat
37、hs to population in 2005, thats about 817 per million people compared with Australias 806.And guess what? Last year the number of speed cameras on French roads reached 1,000 and the government plans to double that within the next three years.Okay, you know the arguments regarding increased traffic s
38、afety and cameras-for-income, but it seems in France theres been a major cultural change brought on by radars and other laws. A three-hour, wine-soaked lunch with a quick rush back to the office is no longer on.Traveling on the highways, it is rare to see anyone breaking the 130km/h speed limit when
39、 once few traveled below it. The speed cameras are clearly signed so drivers know when they are coming. Theres even an official website listing fixed and mobile camera locations and it is updated regularly.Maybe it is because of such transparency (透明) by government, rather than the concealment too o

44、s, particularly among young people. The wireless industrys trade association, CTIA, estimates more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month.The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvements to the nations emergency alert system.

46、erican public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.Participation in the alert system by carriers, telecommunications companies, is volun
47、tary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry.The program would be optional for cell phone users.
