Sources said the library and sports hall were also damaged beyond repair.Strong winds and a shortage of water hampered (prevented) 125 firemen trying to bring it under control.Police said yesterday that five boys – one aged 11, two 12-year-olds, one aged 13 and one 15 –arrested on suspicion of starting the fire had been released on bail(保释) until later this month. Parents said the suspects all attended St M ary’s.Firefighters were expected to remain at the scene until late this afternoon. Staff were due to attend the school yesterday for an inset day, and pupils were to return for lessons after the holidays today.St Mary’s head teacher Kathy McNicholas fought back the tears as she watched her school go up in flames last night.She said: ‘This is so upsetting to watch. It’s heart-breaking. It’s very distressing for the staff and for the children. Everyone had been looking forward to coming back for the new school year. Finding somewhere for around 730 children won’t be easy. A few of the staff have turned up to see if there is anything they can do and they have all been shocked and saddened by what has happened. It’s tragic because we have only just had a lot of refurbishment(翻新) work done to the school during the summer break. It was a big investment. The community around here very much looks after its school.’56 This article is most probably seen in a(an) ________________.A. newspaperB. entertainment magazineC. science bookD. firework advertisement57.

Consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to China by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea.The wave of panic buying spread quickly across the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold in some cities.Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province，faced sudden shortages.The government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize（稳定）the market. It also dismissed the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning.Local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market, too. As well, state-owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply.Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared.Wang Yun, the General Manage r of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, “Our storage reserves can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market.”59．People made panic purchases of salt for the reasons EXCEPT______________.A. salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiationB. nuclear radiation might pollute food sourcesC. nuclear radiation might pollute salt taken from the seaD. there would be a shortage of salt on the market60．The underlined word “fold” in the third paragraph means _______.A. timesB. pricesC. quantitiesD. means 61．What is the purpose of the writer to give the example of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation?A.

It has been designed to encourage more people to cycle in and aroundcentral London.So how does it work？First you have to sign up to the scheme to be sent a key. The key will unlock one of the bikes，which are kept at docking stations in and around central London. You have to pay an access fee for the key and then you pay as you go，for the length of time you use the bike.Transport for London，which runs the scheme，are hoping to have 6，000 bikes and 400 docking stations in place by the end of the year. The new hire system is hoping to ease congestion (拥挤)in London and is expected to create up to 40，000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre. London Mayor oris Johnston launched the scheme and said London had been “filled with thousands of gleaming machines that will transform the look and feel of our streets and become as commonplace on our roads as black cabs and red buses”.However，there have been a few problems since the scheme was launched last Friday. On the first day some people found they couldn’t dock their bike properly and their usage of the bike had not registered. Transport for London did admit they had been expecting a few “teething problems” and have said they wouldn’t charge for the first day as a “gesture of goodwill”. Some other people have criticized the lack of docking stations and locks for the bikes as well as the price it costs to hire the bicycles.Despite the comments，the green-thinking London Mayor still seems very positive about things，saying，“My campaign for the capital to become the greatest big cycling city in the world has taken a big pedal-powered push forwards.”62. London Mayor boris Johnston launched the new bike scheme in order to _______.A. reduce the air pollution of the cityB. encourage the citizens to take exercisesC. deal with the city’s traffic problemsD. increase employment opportunities63.If you want to hire a bike, in which order will you do？a: pay for the bike according to the time you use it b: pay for the key to a bike c: cycle in and around central London d:. sign up as a member to get a keyA. b-d-c-aB. b-c-a-dC. d-c-b-aD. d-b-c-a64.All the following are the problems of the scheme EXCEPT＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿．A. the high cost to hire a bikeB. not registering their usage of the bikesC. not charging for the first day of the schemeD. docking the bikes properly65.
