　　The house was filled with smoke. It was difficult to see things. Frank walked by Bellville at least once without

　　seeing him. The smoke was choking both of them. Bellville's health was already poor and the smoke only made it worse. He's now at a Wichita hospital listed in dangerous condition.

He wanted to clean up the planet, solve pollution and environmental problems.A senator (参议员) is someone US citizens choose to help make laws, so Gaylord had a lot of power. He went to John F.

　　About one­third of primary school students aged 7～12 years old use cellphones (手机); by the time they get to high school that figure has shot up to 96 percent，according to a government survey released(发布). They're using their phones to read books, listen to music,

　　chat

　　with

　　friends

　　and

　　surf

　　the Internet — an average of 124 minutes a day for high school girls and 92 minutes for boys.

　　The cellphones will eventually become their main means of communication(交流)．Education professor Tetsuro Saito said a survey of 1,600 middle school students aged around 14 found that about 60 percent carried cellphones and nearly half used them to send 20 or more emails a day.

　　Most middle school cellphone users almost never used their phones to talk, the survey found. Saito said children seemed to want the security (安全)of communicating with someone, without the bother of dealing with a real person.

　　“Communication ability is sure to decline(下降)as cellphones and other devices are now getting between people，” he said.

　　Tonny, a student, said，“I send some 20 emails a day. There're people I don't talk with — even if I see them at school. I just exchange emails with them. I guess we're connected only by a machine.”

　　Saito's survey found that students can also use their cellphones as an emotional (情感的) support. More than 60 percent of students who said they don't enjoy being with their families send 20 or more emails a day, compared with 35 percent of those happy with their families.

　　语篇解读：本文主要讲述了中小学生使用手机读书、听音乐、聊天、上网。专家认为中小学生使用手机表明他们在现实中与人的交流能力下降，并且与父母相处得不好。

　　61．Though cellphones play an important role, they also bring disadvantages like________.

　　A．a rise in teenagers' emotional problems and bullying(恃强凌弱)

　　B．a rise in the conflicts between teenagers and their parents

　　C．a growing teenagers' inability to get along well with others

　　D．an increasing number of teenagers playing games on the phones

　　解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第四段“Communication ability is sure to decline as cellphones and other devices are now getting between people，” he said.可知。

　　D．become more dependent on cellphones as they grow older

　　One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency. You know, you would be submerged (淹没) in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a free tour of Italy.

　　The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive (印象深刻的)．We look forward to going there again! Of course, we spent lots of time arranging (安排) the trip, but it was well worth it! Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially anxious about my visa, but everything went quite smoothly in the end.

　　The most difficult part was getting a visa (签证) without an invitation. In the Italian consulate (领事馆), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far in advance. The next step was to book a hotel. We finally booked a hotel about 30km away from the heart of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.

　　Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome. Our big house, which was surrounded by the forest, was a rare place for the fresh air and absolute silence, beautiful views, hospitable hosts, comfortable living conditions delighting us to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our mistress was a Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.

　　Don't be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It's not difficult! The only thing I'll say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide­book to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you're also planning a “single” trip, don't forget to take a Russian­Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.

　　Next Thursday, November 27th (the fourth Thursday in November), Americans will gather with family and friends to share a big meal to celebrate Thanksgiving. They might play games, tell stories or watch football on television together.

　　Angelo Rosa has more Thanksgiving memories than most people. From Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania, the 100­year­old man lives in the same house where he celebrated a great number of Thanksgivings.

　　But he says it was different when he was a child. Mr Rosa was just three when his family came to America.“When we were small children, Thanksgiving was never a very big holiday because at the time we actually didn't pay too much attention to it.” But, also, he says, his parents faced a language difficulty.“They were from Italy and spoke very broken English, because they were the first generation that came over here.”

　　And the family had little money. There were six Rosa children. Mr Rosa's father was a coal miner in Pennsylvania. The family was not able to have big, costly dinners, especially during the hard time of the 1930's. But Mr Rosa says Thanksgiving dinners became a tradition in his own family after he married and had children.

　　This Thanksgiving, Angelo Rosa will go to the home of his daughter about twenty minutes away. He will celebrate the day with loved ones, including his great­grandchildren.

　　On the other side of the country, Cathie Dahlstrom is preparing dishes for a group of 35 to 40 people in Concord, California. We asked Ms Dahlstrom what she is thankful for this year, her first answer is “The election.” She said she also is deeply grateful for her very large family. Ms Dahlstrom has one daughter.She has five younger brothers and sisters.She also has eight stepbrothers and sisters. Many of them and their families will be at the Thanksgiving dinner.

　　68．From Ms Dahlstrom's words, we can infer that________.

　　A．she is content with both her family, relatives and the society

　　B．she is thankful for her effort in the election and her family

　　C．she has always been celebrating Thanksgiving this way

　　D．her daughter has a large family with stepbrothers and sisters

　　解析：选A。细节推断题。Ms Dahlstrom有两个感激：“总统选举”和“大家庭”；由此推断出她无论对社会还是对家庭都是充满感激和爱的。

　　69．As a whole, Thanksgiving in America is________.

　　A．a happy gathering with family members, relatives and friends

　　B．a grand family dinner party as well as a tourist holiday

　　C．a great social gathering of entertainment and achievement

　　D．a large gathering of people of different generations

　　解析：选A。细节归纳题。对文中这两个家庭的大致叙述，不难看出，感恩节就是家庭成员、亲戚的团聚，而不是旅游、冒险，也不是不同代人之间的相会。

　　70．Who probably wrote the passage?

　　A．A close friend of Mr Rosa and Ms Dahlstrom's.

　　B．A journalist for a radio or TV station.

　　C．A university student who majors in history.

　　D．An actress who wants to experience real life.

　　解析：选B。体裁判断题。文中数次出现直接引语，在最后一段中出现了“We asked”。由此判断出采访形式是广播或电视节目报道。
