 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

 A A quality education is the basic liberator. it can free people from poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society. It can also free communities and countries, allowing them to jump forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible. For this reason,the international community has devoted itself to getting all the world’s children into primary school by 2015, a task known

 as Education for All. Can education for aIl be achieved by 2015? The answer is undoubtedly “yes,”although it is a difficult task.If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing at least five years of primary school,instead of just enrolling(注册)for classes,which used to be the measuring stick for education,then the task becomes even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment. The number rises to 88 if completion of primary school is used as the standard. Still, the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the effectiveness and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems. They also need great increases in outside support. The 29 countries falling farthest behind will not reach the goal without extra fast speed of progress. But this is achievable with creative solution, including use of information technologies, enough foreign aid, and fewer people living in poverty.

 A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country’s ability to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management. Where a country scores well on these, foreign assistance can be highly effective.

 56.In the first paragraph,the author suggests that a quality education can_________. A.tree countries from foreign rules B.give people freedom C.speed up social progress D.liberate people from any pressure 57.Ideally, the goal of the program of Education for All is to ____________by 2015. A.enroll all the world’s children into primary school B.get all the world’s children to complete primary school C.give quality education to people of 88 countries D.support those devoted to changing their education systems 58.________ countries are now at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of completing 5 years of primary school. A.88 B.32 C.29 D.59 59.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT mentioned as the right policy? A.Raising the effectiveness of education systems. B.Improving the quality of education. C.Using information technologies. D.Building more primary schools. 60.As can be gathered from the last paragraph,foreign aid______.

 A.is provided only when some standards are met B.may not be highly effective C.alone makes development possible D.is most effective for those countries falling farthest behind

 D.Veronica & White Teeth C Every summer thousands of Americans stay at home instead of going on holiday because they’re overweight. They don’t want people to see them sunbathing and they don’t want to have to squeeze into plane seats. But now, thanks to the growing number of weight-friendly holiday packages, the overweight are having their days in the sun.

 “Overweight people will have a great time on our holidays as we don’t judge them like other people do,” said Liz Nickels,owner of Big Adventures, a US-based company that hosts scuba-diving—a sport of swimming underwater while breathing through a tube connected to a tank on your back for larger people. As a way to keep up with the demand for extra-large accommodation, many hotels in the US have started to offer features such as wide beds and handheld showers. But the best in plus-size vacationing lies at Mexico’s Freedom Paradise, a 112-room resort (度假胜地)opening this month,which urges guests to “Live Large, Live Free”. The hotel has broad doorways, reinforced(加同)furniture and extra large chairs. It also boasts(自夸)a private beach to protect people from the stares that can occur on public beaches.“It’s not a hotel just for large people. It’s a size-friendly place where anyone can enjoy a holiday,” said owner Jurrian Kilnk. “What we noticed was that a lot of oversized people

 don’t feel comfortable at resorts.”Staff members of all sizes are hired by the hotel to make overweight people feel OK. Though many welcome the new service,some feel differently. “I have a real problem with this,” said Nancy Lenhart, owner of Camp La Jolla, a Californian weight-loss and fitness camp. “If you talk about oversized beds and doorways you are throwing their weight in their faces. Overweight people want to be normalized. They shouldn’t be discriminated against like this.” 66.Large people don’t want to go on holiday because___________. A.they don’t like sun-bathing

  B.they don’t want to be looked at C.the planes are too crowded

  D.hotels are not open to them 67 . In the first paragraph , weight-friendly holiday packages means________.

A.for larger people

  B.only for larger people C.jumping from the platform

 D.underwater

 69.Mexico’s Freedom Paradise is a hotel__________. A.for people of all sizes

Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious(豪华的)planes and pleasure ships. They are models. Do you envy them? What sort of life are models leading? Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man? A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a lot of money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. They’d like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imagine—models

 earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done. Interviews for a model job are known as cattle—markets in the modeling world, and not without a good reason.A top model can choose his or her work,demand and receive high fees told has his or her expenses paid.But for most models,the situation is quite different.An agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market.Intelligence qualifications and personal characteristics count for little(无足轻重)against good looks and tight figures. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell himself or herself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers. Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as “Model”, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world.It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put “Secretary” or “Businessman” as their jobs in

 their passports. Modeling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority. 71.For models, their good looks and tight figures are__________, compared with their intelligence and qualifications. A.more important

B.To be a model,good looks are the most important qualification. C.Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay. D.A model can hardly be successful without a good agent. 73.Models often put “Secretary” or “Businessman” instead of “Model” in their passports because A.they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fans B.a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societies C.models are sometimes looked down upon D.secretaries and businessmen are free of custom duty 74.What may be the author’s attitude towards modeling?

 A.It is a worthwhile life for a young lady or a young man. B.He is in favor of young people to try modeling. C.Before being crazy about a model job,young people should be aware of the difficulties.

According to the latest figures, 59 percent of American adults exercise regularly—up 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 years ago.
