It is well known that Albert Einstein was one of the greatest scientists of all time and he was also a really great person. Here are some interesting things about him.

When Einstein started to work in America, someone asked him what he needed. He said he needed a desk, some paper and a pencil. He also asked for a big waste-paper basket to hold all of his mistakes. This shows that he knew even the cleverest man in the world can only learn by making mistakes.

Einstein regarded time as very important. He never wore socks and he thought putting on socks was a waste of time as people already wore shoes. He also thought it was a waste of time remembering things that could quickly be found in a book. That’s why he never remembered his own phone number, which was in the phone book. He knew what was worth remembering. It is true that if we are going to do great things in our lives, we can not waste our time.

Einstein liked to joke too. Once in an exam a student asked him why all the questions were the same as last year’s. Einstein replied the questions were the same but the answers were different!

A new plan for getting children 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 children’s safety on the roads.

Until now the local government have been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their 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 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 money for a bus service from Milton to Impington School and back, a plan which has the support of the school’s 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 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 official 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.

64. What is the aim of the plan?

   A. To prevent the students’ road accident.

   B. To relieve the traffic pressure.

   C. To save time for the parents and students.

   D. To help the parents save money

65. How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low cost?

   A. By letting the bus run in the morning only.

   B. By limiting the number of the students.

   C. By getting the support from the headmaster.

   D. By linking(连接) the new bus service with the existing one.

66. Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out?

   A. The bus company will make much more money.

   B. The children can choose whatever school they like.

   C. The parents can get rid of their worries.

   D. The students in Impington school can have free bus rides.

67. This passage is most probably ______.

   A. a personal letter        B. an advertisement

   C. a headmaster’s report    D. a newspaper article

For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming to an empty house.  71  Some may hide. But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are called latchkey children. They are children who look after themselves while their parents work. 72

Lynette Long was once the headmaster of an elementary school. She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached. I was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts. There were so many keys. It never came to my mind what they meant.” 73

She and her husband began talking to the children who had them. They learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children.  74  One in every three latchkey children the Logs talked to reported being scared. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.

The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. 75

The second is TV. They’ll often play it at high volume. It’s hard to get statistics(情况)on latchkey children, the Longs learned. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.

A. Slowly, she learned they were house keys.

B. But they don’t mind.

C. Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone.

D. Some deal with the situation by watching TV.

E. Some go to their friends or their s.

F. And their bad condition has become a subject of concern.

G. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed or in a closet.

I will never forget my teacher Miss Lee, who is my English teacher when I was in high school. Miss Lee was younger, pretty and kind-hearted. That is hard for me to describe how she was like. However, she really had her own personalities. She let us elect our monitor and decided where to go for an outing. Besides, she liked to have us solving(解决) problems by our own.
