19、are with other people . I think about what you would like to say in advance. Then say it. If you start feeling self-conscious in a group, take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people, Remember, you are not alone. Other people are concerned about the impression they are making, too. No
20、 one ever gets over being shy completely, but most people do learn to live with their shyness. Even entertainers admit that they often feel shy.

24、ren to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their childrens safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from t
25、heir school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.The new
26、 plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school. But now they have agreed to offer a sum of
27、 money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the schools headmaster. Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents
28、 should be less than 20 a term. They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The off
29、icial said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.45.

32、s rides48. This passage is most probably _A. a personal letterB. an advertisementC. a headmasters reportD. a newspaper articleC Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said befo
33、re. He hopes that the public will listen and understand -he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visional artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experience into shapes and colors, not words. They se
34、em to feel that a certain choice of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is very interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have notice these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artists. Most art
35、ists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in movement and at rest; their choices show that these aspects(方面)of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Modern artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interestin
36、g pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose totally without thinking about the character of their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(溃烂的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world . Eac

59、DBCC 56-60 DCADBCreating a Green CampusRecently the students union of our school has been collecting suggestions entitled Creating a Green Campus among all the teachers and students. The followings are some of the good ones from them. Firstly more trees, flowers and grass should be planted in the ca
60、mpus, which can not only make the school look more beautiful but also let the teachers and students feel happier. Secondly we should use plastic bags and bottles as few as possible to reduce the white pollution. Thirdly we ought not to cheat in exams, copy homework from others or surf some unhealthy websites, which is also considered as an important part of creating a green campus.I suggest that we should form good habits of turning off the lights as we leave school and not wasting water. If everyone can make contributions to these above, I believe we can create a really green campus.
