The problem is that we the public have to observe the rules. For example, we must put a stamp on a letter. If we don’t, the receiver will have to pay double. We often see the sign ALL LETTERS MUST BE CORRECTLYADDRESSED. These days, this means having to use postcodes. If you didn ’t use a postcode, it’s no good complaining that your letter should have arrived sooner. Parcels are a problem because they must be correctly packaged. If Aunt Sophie is going to send you a jar of your favorite jam, she will have to wrap it up well. The most important thing we have to do is to address our letters and parcels legibly(易读) and correctly. This means clear handwriting and correct spelling. What we should do and what we actually do are often miles apart. Recently, the Post Office had to deliver a letter which showed a name followed by the word Arijaba. What is this, do you think? Arabic? Hindustani(兴都斯坦语)? Wrong both times! Say it out loud and you’ll see it’s just plain English.59. In England _______ if you forget to put on a stamp.A. nobody can receive your letterB. you will have to give some money as a punishmentC. you can’t have your letter postedD. you can still have your letter posted60. If you didn’t use a postcode, _______.A. your letter couldn’t arrive soonB. your letter would be surely l ostC. your letter could not be postedD. your letter would be sent back at last61. When we post parcels, we must _______.A. address them correctlyB. address them clearlyC. package them correctlyD. all of the above62 From the passage we can see that postmen _______.A. have no difficulty in delivering any lettersB. have difficulty in delivering mis-spelt lettersC. won’t deliver any letters with bad handwritingD. can deliver all letters to their destinations (目的地)CHilton English Language CenterInformation for New StudentsCLASS TIME: 8:30a.m.—10:00a.m., 10:30a.m.—12:00a.m.,1:30p.m.—3:00p.m..The Language Center is open Monday to Friday.

Their answer is the bicycle, or “bike”.In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bicycles to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bicycle riders. For example, they want the city to draw special lanes for bicycles only on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars,there are accidents. Bike for a Better city feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes.But no bicycles lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks they are a good idea-----they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don‘t like the idea------they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park----the largest place of open ground in New York----is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bi cycles only.But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.67．The best title for this passage is _________.A．Traffic Crowding in New York CityB．Air Pollution in New York City by CarsC．Special Lanes for PassengersD．A Solution to Traffic Problem in New York68．“Bicycle lanes”in the third paragraph probably means ______.A. narrow passages between buildings for bicyclesB. roads full of bicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders onlyD. roads for bicycles only69．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A．Bike for a Better City members ride bicycles to work．B．Sometimes accidents may occur when cars and bikes are on the same lanes．C．The Central Park is closed to cars on weekends．D．In New York City, many people use bikes as they have special lanes．70. The government has not decided whether special lanes should be drawn ______.A. so that everyone is disappointedB. because there are different opinionsC. because most people travel by trainD. because Bike for a Better City is not strong enough第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项是多余选项。
