Adopt-a-Highway

Hello. I’m Jan from Mrs. Lake’s class. My class wants to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway.

Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.

The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up.

We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean, please come with your parents to th e meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs. Lake’sroom on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people’s unkind acts. Then we’ll try to pick an area to adopt and clean up.

I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!

55. What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?

A. Giving names to the highways.

B. Drawing pictures of highways.

C. Picking up litter along the roads.

D. Putting up signs near the roads.

56. The Adopt-a-Highway Program can help ________.

A. provide jobs

B. build highways

C. control traffic

D. save money

57. What should the students do first if they want to join the program?

A. Go to a meeting next Wednesday.

B. Call Mrs. Lake next week.

C. Write a letter to their parents.

D. Pick a spot to care for.

58. What is the purpose of this speech?

A. To introduce the traffic system.

B. To tell a story about adopting a pet.

C. To show drivers how to drive safely.

D. To encourage students to join the program.

第二节：阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，在答题卡相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚，结构正确，书写工整。

Last month I got the chance to take part in an underwater research project in an area of the Gulf of Mexico called the Flower Gardens. A team of professional(专业的) researchers, led by the scientist Dr. Matt Phillips, was trying to learn more about the fish and other creatures(动物) that

live in this part of the sea. The Flower Gardens are a long way from the shore and we spent three days on a boat.

The team used a piece of underwater equipment(设备) called a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) to collect information. The ROV could measure(测量) water depth and temperature and it

also had a camera that sent live film back to the boat. The ROV was great fun. It was controlled by a computer on the boat, and I was allowed to operate it a few times.

However, the thing I enjoyed most was diving into the water. At first, I was quite frightened —mainly because I couldn’t see land in any direction(方向). But as soon as I jumped into the

water, I wasn’t afraid anymore. It was amazing to see the colourful fish swimmi ng around and I could see all the way to the Flower Gardens, which are almost 30 metres down.

I will never forget the Flower Gardens. The trip was like a holiday but I also learnt new things about science and research projects. The team were very friendly and everyone was happy to explain what they knew about the sea. It was a great opportunity and it has made me think about

my goals(目标) in life. The experience will definitely(肯定地) encourage me to work harder to become a scientist.

63. What were the researchers trying to learn about in the Flower Gardens? (不多于5个词)

. What did the writer enjoy most in the project? (不多于4个词)
