A

But Andy never stopped wanting freedom.During his 20years in prison,he had been digging a hole with a small pickaxe (篙头)every day and hiding the hole with a poster.As his well-prepared escape plan was put into practice,the suspense (悬念)in the book keeps me on edge until the end.

Famous Irish writer Oscar Wilde once said “We’re all in the gutter (臭水沟),but some of us are looking at stars.”This saying perfectly sums up Andy’s life.The thing that makes the biggest impression on me is Andy’s love for the beauty of life.He plays a song over the prison’s broadcast system,even though he was not allowed to do so.When the singer’s voice was heard,the prisoners stopped talking,immersing themselves in the music and letting the beauty flood in.

The goal of this book is to show readers the power of strength,hope and patience.56.In which section may we read the above material?

A.MAGIC WORLD

B.COOL INVENTION

C.I REVIEW

A sunflower is a sunflower.A mobile phone is a mobile phone.But can you combine the two to do something for the environment?It may well be possible next year.When you have finished with your mobile phone,you will be able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.

A biodegradable(生物所能分解的)mobile phone was,this month,introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.

Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years.It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft,and is able to change shape.But over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals.British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed.When this new type of cover turns into waste,it forms fertilizers(肥料).These feed the seed and help the flower grow.

Engineers have designed a small window to hold the seed.They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away.“We've only put sunflower seeds into the cover so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers will perform best.Maybe we could put roses in next time."said one scientist.

As phone technology is developing so quickly,people are constantly throwing their mobiles away.This means producers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them.Some650 million mobile phones have been sold this year.Most of them will be thrown away within two

years,adding plastic,heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment.However,a biodegradable cover can offer some relief for nature.

61.After you have finished using the new type of mobile phone,__________.

A.it can produce a sunflower seed

B.it will be recycled by some scientists

C.the phone will do harm to the environment

D.the phone cover will break down easily into the soil

62.What can we know about the cover of the new type of phone?

A.It may make the seed grow at any time.

B.It can give out poisonous chemicals when breaking down.

C.It can turn into useful fertilizers for the sunflower seed.

D.Its shape can be changed into hard or soft plastic.

63.The type of research is done because___________.

A.too many waste mobile phones may lead to environmental problems

B.the technology of making phones is changing so quickly

C.nobody has ever thought of recycling mobile phones

D.it can help flowers grow better

.According to the passage,it’s TRUE that___________.

A.about650million mobile phones are recycled every year

B.biodegradable mobile phones are available in the market

C.engineers have designed a small window to hold the rose seed

D.the flower only grows when the phone is thrown away

65.What’s the purpose of the passage?

A.To discuss the development of the cell phone technology.

B.To introduce an environmental-friendly cell phone to the readers.

Primary school children in the UK have little choice over what they eat for lunch.Either their parents p76their lunchbox,or they choose from only one or two options on a hot dinner menu.However,secondary schools let students make their own meal choices f77.

In the past,this has l78to problems.There is a2004survey called School Meals in Secondary Schools in England.It showed that many schools offered unhealthy menus.For example,on four or five days of the week,76percent of schools served chips and other potatoes c79in oil,while86percent served high fat meals like burgers and chicken nuggets.And when offered such dishes,most students were p80them:48percent chose high fat main dishes;48percent chose chips or similar and24percent chose cakes or muffins(松饼).Fruit, fruit juice,vegetables and salads were the least p81choices.

In this2005television series Jamie’s School Dinners,famous chef Jamie Oliver began working with school cooks on p82more healthy meals.At first,many students and parents were a83the idea.But the tide began to turn and Jamie’s campaign has led to a general improvement in nutritional standards for school meals.

More recently,online systems like“Parent Pay”gives parents more c84over what their children are eating at school.They can s85daily spending limits and see exactly what their kids are buying each day.
