My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month-long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be hap py to lend it to her. As he lived just above the café, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary— General of the United Nations (UN).
Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting. It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack(背包) and asked Emma to write her name and address inside. When he returned to California, he left the book behind in Montreal, and his friend Alex kept it. When Alex later moved to Jerusalem, he took the book along.

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned
out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steer them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
65. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?
A. Those who often take exercise.
B. Those who often watch television.
C. Those who often have meals at home.
D. Those who often walk to school.
66. The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because
A. their parents often cook meals for them
B. they are too busy to go out and play
C. they can' t choose what to eat
D. there are too many fast food shops around
67. The word "steer" underlined in the last sentence most probably means _______.
A. force
B. guide
C. expect
D.
observe
68. The main purpose of the text is to _________.
A. tell a story
B. provide facts
C. give advice
D. compare opinions

The train had started moving. It was 36 with people of all ages, mostly with the middle-aged workers and young students. Near the 37 sat an old man with his thirty-year-old son. As the train moved by, the son was overjoyed with the 38 outside. “See, dad, the scenery of green trees moving 39 is very beautiful.”
This behavior from a 40 son made the other people fee l strange about him. Everyone was 41 about the son. “This person seems to be 42 ,” a newly-married man whispered to his wife.
