　　This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure-a 120-page diary kept 190 years age by Deborah Logan, "a woman who knew everybody in her day," James Green ,the librarian told the magazine American Libraries.
　　Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia ,It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington .D. C in the war of 1812.She describes President James Madison on horseback as "perfectly shaking with fear" during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man, and praised her excellent English ．
　　The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from Eng- land to deliver the diary of his ancestor(祖先）to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary.
　　Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession "a bout five minutes" when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realise that he had left it in the taxi.
　　Without any delay, Green began calling every taxi company in the city, with no luck, "I've felt sick since then, "Luxmoore told reporters.
　　According to Green. no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building .Tom Brennan received a reward(奖励)of 1,000,Philadelphia gained another treasure for its history, and Luxmoore told reporters, "It's wonderful news. I'm on high".

Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become　"computer-literate."　But not all experts (专家) agree that this is a good idea.
　　One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK. Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer. David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them "people-literate."
　　David Tebbutt thinks Computertowns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he insists there is an important difference between the two, The clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns where there are computers for them to experiment on, with experts to encourage them and answer any questions they have, They are not told what to do, they find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People don't have to learn computer terms(术语), but the experts have to explain in plain language. The computers are becoming "people-literate."
56. Which of the following is David Tebbutt's ides on the relationship between people and computers?
　　A. Computer learning should be made easier.
　　B. There should be more computer clubs for experts.
　　C. People should work harder to master computer use.
　　D. Computers should be made cheaper so that people can afford them.
57.We can infer from the text that "computer-literate" means _________.
　　A. being able to afford a computer
　　B. being able to write computer programs
　　C. working with the computer and finding out its value
　　D. understanding the computer and knowing how to use it
58. The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to the idea that Computertowns ___.
　　A. help to set up more computer clubs
　　B. bring people to learn to use computers
　　C. bring more experts to work together
　　D. help to sell computers to the public
59. David Tebbutt started Computertown UK with the purpose of＿＿＿＿＿
　　A. making better use of computer experts
　　B. improving computer programs
　　C. increasing computer sales
　　D. popularising computers

　　Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father. "But. Dad. you can't be healthy if you're dead."
　　Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run. had forgotten to wear his safety belt-a mistake 75% of the US population make every day The big question is why.
　　There have been many myths about safety belts ever since heir first appearance in cars some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
　　Myth Number One: It's best to be "thrown clear" of a serious accident.
　　Truth: Sorry, but any accident serious enough to "throw you clear" is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing. And chances are you'll have traveled through a windshield(挡风玻璃)or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are "thrown clear."
　　Myth Number Two: Safety belts "trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
　　Truth: Sorry again. but studies show that people knocked unconscious(昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations. not to be trapped in them.
　　Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour
　　Truth: when two cars traveling at 30 mpb hit each other. an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10 meters.
62．Why did Elizabeth say to her father. "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if you're dead"?
　　A. He was driving at great speed.

When a group of children politely stop a conversation with you, saying: "We have to go to work now." you're left feelings surprised and certainly uneasy. After all, this is the 1990s and the idea of children working is just unthinkable. That is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools, and that the "work" they go off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.
　　Stage schools often act as agencies (代理机构) to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name "`stage school" are those few places where children attend full time with a training for the theatre and a general education.
　　A visit to such school will leave you in no doubt that the children enjoy themselves. After all, what lively children wouldn't settle for spending only half the day doing ordinary school work, and acting, singing or dancing their way through the other half of the day?
　　Then of course these are time for the children to make a name and make a little money in some big shows. Some stage schools give their children too much professional work at such a young age. But the law is very tight on the amount they can do. Those under 13 are limited to 40 days in the year; those over 13 do 80 days.
　　The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained. So what happens to those who don't make it? While all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results. the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.
67. People would stop feeling uneasy when realising that the children they're talking

to ________.

A. attend a stage school
　　B. are going to the theatre
　　C. got some work to do
　　D. love singing and dancing
68. In the writer's opinion, a good stage school should _________.
　　A. produce star performers
　　B. help pupils improve their study skills
　　C. train pupils in language and performing arts
　　D. provide a general education and stage training
69."Professional work" as used in the next means＿＿＿＿＿．
　　A．ordinary school work
　　B．money-making performances
　　C. stage training at school
　　D. acting, singing or dancing after class
70. Which of the following beat describes how the wrier feels about stage schools?
　　A. He thinks highly of what they have to offer.
　　B. He favours an early start in the training of performing arts.
　　C．He feels uncomfortable about children putting on night shows.
　　D．He doubts the standard of ordinary education they have reached.
