She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004. Together they designed the LongPen. Here’s how it works: The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet(手写板) using a special pen. On the receiving end, in another city, a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book. The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams(网络摄像机) and computer screens.Work on the LongPen began in Atwood’s basement(地下室). At first, they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be. The device went through several versions, including one that actually had smoke coming out of it. The inventing finally completed, test runs were made in Ottawa, and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair. From here, Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and New York City.The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time. It has several other potential applications. It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province. The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof when legal documents are used.“It’s really fun,” said the owner of a bookstore, who was present for one of the test runs. “Obviously you can’t shake hands with the author, but there are chances for a connection that you don’t get from a regular book signing.”The response to the invention hasn’t been all favorable. Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she’s trying to end book tours. But she said, “It will be possible to go to pl aces that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn’t afford it.”41. Why did Atwood decide to invent the LongPen?A. To set up her own company.B. To win herself greater popularity.C. To write her books in a new way.D. To make books signings less tiring.42. How does the LongPen work?A. It copies the author’s signature and prints it on a book.B. It signs a book while receiving the author’s signature.C. The webcam sends the author’s signature to another city.D. The fan uses it to copy the author’s signature himself.43. What do we know about the invention of the LongPen?A. It has been completed but not put into use.B. The basement caught fire by accident.C. Some versions failed before its test run.D. The designers were well- prepared for the difficulty.44. How could the LongPen be used in the future?A. To draft legal documents.B. To improve credit card security.C. To keep a record of the author’s ideas.D. To allow author and fan to exchange videos.45. What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6?A. Atwood doesn’t mean to end book tours.B. Critics think the LongPen is of little use.C. Bookstore owners don’t support the LongPen.D. Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high cost.“Dad,” I say one day, “Let’s take a trip. Why don’t you fly out and meet me?”My father had just retired after 27 years as manager for IBM. His job filled his day, his thoughts, his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall in Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.My father sees me drifting aimlessly nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps. He wants me to settle down. But now I want him to find an adventure.He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.“What’s our first stop?” asks my father.“What time is it?”“Still don’t have a watch?”Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(花岗岩), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of a little boy.“Unbelievable,”he says, “How was this done?”A film in the information center show sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and the left the final touches to his son.We stare up and I ask myself. Would I ever devote my life to anything?No directions, no goals. I always used to hear those words in my father’s voice. Now I hear them in my own.The next day we’re at Yellowston e National Park, where we have a picnic.“Did you ever travel with your dad?” I ask.“Only once,” he says. “I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other—but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”The last sentence---it’s probably the same thing I’d say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I’ve never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world. I can keep traveling. I realize---and maybe a regular j ob won’t be as dull as I feared.Weeks after our trip, I call my father.“The photos from the trip are wonderful,”he says. “We’ve got to take another trip like that sometime.”I tell him I’ve decided to settle down, and I’m wearing a watch.46. We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that the father _____________.A. followed the fashionB. got bored with his jobC. was unhappy with the author’s lifestyleD. liked the author’s collection of stamps47. What does the author realize at Mount Rushmore?A. His father is interested in sculpture.B. His father is as innocent as a little boy.C. He should learn sculpture in the future.D. He should pursue a specific aim in life.48. From the underlined paragraph, we can see that the author ___________.A. wants his children to learn from their grandfatherB. comes to understand what parental love meansC. learns how to communicate with his fatherD. hopes to give whatever he can to his father49. What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?A. The call solves their disagreements.B. The Swiss watch has drawn them closer.C. They decide to learn photography together.D. They began to change their attitudes to life50. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Love Nature, Love LifeB. A Son Lost in AdventureC. A Journey with DadD. The Art of TravelPeople aren’t walking any more—if they can figure out a way to avoid it.I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as a good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced—and beat —a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Statue of Liberty.Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adophe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illness than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise—the most familiar and natural of all.It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the tree, flowers, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in car.The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature anymore; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thing takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.51. What is the national sickness?A. Walking too much.B. Traveling too much.C. Driving cars too muchD. Climbing stairs too much.52. What was life like when the author was young?A. People usually went around on foot.B. People often walked 25 miles a day.C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.D. People considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.53. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that________________.A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature.B. walking in nature helps e nrich one’s mindC. People need regular exercise to keep fitD. going on foot prevents heart disease54. What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph 6?A. A queue of cars.B. A ray of traffic light.C. A flash of lightning.D. A stream of people.55. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?A. To tell people to reflect more on life.B. To recommend people to give up driving.C. To advise people to do outdoor activities.D. To encourage people to return to walking.Travel LightGetting away for a short time always seems like a great idea—until you have to pack. ____1_____ The rule is: pack light. Here are some tips to help you pack.1．Make a list. Think of what you need from your head to your toes. _____2_____ When you've done this once, it'll be easier next time.2．Consider buying small-size samples of shampoo, toothpaste, and other items at your local drugstore. You can reuse the plastic containers next time you go away too.3．Choosing which clothes to bring is probably the hardest packing decision to make. Think once again from head to toe—hat, shirts, jeans, sneakers, etc. Once you've picked out what you want to bring, think carefully. Do you really need that extra pair of jeans? If so, fine. _____3_____ Don't try to fool yourself. You are the one who will be left holding the bag.4．Weather is an important factor in your packing. If it's cold, you could wear a jacket, a sweater, a regular shirt, and a T-shirt. Putting them on will keep you warm. _____4_____ Remember how much easier it will be to carry your bag! As for shoes, you may want to call ahead to see if dress shoes are necessary. If so, one pair will be enough, along with one pair of comfortable shoes.Remember that it is you who have been invited somewhere, not your things. _____5_____ So, do it right—pack light.A．Mixing and matching is a smart and easy way to lighten your load.B．But packing won't be a problem if you remember one simple rule.C．You will have an easier time if you're weighed down.D．But make sure they're really worth the extra weight.E．It's best to bring these things with you.F．And it'll leave more room in your bag.G．Keep the list for future reference.I asked my uncle, who plays 1 piano well, 2 he would assess (评定) the tone of a second hand piano I was hoping to buy. We arrived 3 the house and Uncle Frank looked the piano over, then 4 (sit) down and played a mixture of honky-tonk numbers and classical pieces. When he finished, we told the family that we would call 5 in 15 minutes.Outside, Uncle Frank said that 6 the wood was battered (坏掉的)，the sound was good and we should buy it.When I phoned the woman back, she sounded as if she was crying. 7 (concern), I asked, “What’s the matter?”“We didn’t know the piano 8 play like that,” she replied. The piano wasn’t 9 sale, and her daughter had to resume(重新开始) taking piano 10 .短文改错：Can money buy happiness? Different people have different opinion. With money one can buy that he wants and live a happy life. It’s a common view which money is the root of all evil. The pursuit of money dri ve many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing cann’t be bought by money, resulting in societies where everybody is miserable. So money doesn’t necessary mean happiness. It all depends on what it is used. If we make proper use of money, it can be a bright path into happiness. Money can’t buy happiness, but it can make happiness be possible if it is employed sensibly.书面表达（满分25分）假如你是晨光中学高二（1）班的班长李津，得知美国学生Chris作为交换生，下学期将到你班学习。

must be a better way to do them 、She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004、Together they designed the LongPen、Here’s how it works: The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet(手写板) using a special pen、On the receiving end, in another city, a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book、The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams(网络摄像机) and computer screens. Work on the LongPen began in Atwood’s basement(地下室)、At first, they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be、The device went through several versions, including one that actually had smoke coming out of it、The investing finally completed, teat runs w ere made in Ottawa, and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair、From here , Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and New York City.The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time、It has several other potential applications、It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province、The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof when legal documents are used.“It’s really fun”, said the owner of a bookstore, who was present for one of the test runs、“Obviously you can’t shake hands with the author but there are chances for a connection that you don’t get from a regular book signing..The response to the invention has not been all favorable、Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she is trying to end book tours、But she said, “It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn’t afford it.”41、Why did Atwood decide to invent the LongPen?A、To set up her own companyB、To win herself greater popularityC、To write her books in a new wayC、To make book signings less tiring42、How does the LongPen work?A、I copies the author’s signature and prints it on a book.B、It signs a book while receiving the author’s signature.C、The webcam sends the author’s signature to another city.D、The fan uses it to copy the author’s signature himself.43、What do we know about the invention of the LongPen?A、It has been completed but not put into use.B、The basement caught fire by accident.C、Some versions failed before its test run.D、The designers were well-prepared for the difficulty.44、How could the LongPen be used in the future?A、To draft legal documents.B、To improve credit card securityC、To keep a record of the author’s ideas.D、To allow author and fan to exchange videos45、What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6?A、Atwood doesn’t mean to end book tours.B、Critics think the LongPen is of little useC、Bookstore owners do not support the LongPenD、Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high costC“Dad,” I say one day …..take a trip、Why don’t you fly and meet me?”My father had just reired……….、His job filled his day, his thought, his life、While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall Peru、While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.My father sees me drfting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps、He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.He agrees to travel with me through the national parks、We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.“ What is our first stop?” asks my father.“What time is it?”“Still don’t have a watch?”Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore、As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of little boy.“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.We stare up and I ask myself, Would I ever devote my life to anything?No directions, …… I always used to hear those words in my father’s voice、Now I hear them in my own.The next day we’re at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.“Did you ever travel with your dad? I ask.“Only once,” he says、“ I never spoke much with my father、We loved each other---but never said it、Whatever he could give me, he gave.”>The kast sebtebce----it’s probably the same thing I’s say about my father、And what I’d want my child to say about me.In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I’ve never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world, I can keep traveling, I realize--- and maybe a regular job won’t be as dull as I feared.Weeks after our trip, I call my father、“The photos from the trip are wonderful,” he says.” We have got to take another trip like that sometime.I tell him I’ve learn decided to settle down, and I’m wearing a watch.46、We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that the father _________.A、followed the fashionB、got bored with his jobC、was unhappy with……D、liked the author’s collection of stamps47、What does the author realize at Mount Rushmore?A、His father is interested in sculptureB、His father is as innocent as a little boyC、He should learn sculpture in the futureD、He should pursue a specific aim in life.48、From the underlined paragraph, we can see that the author________.A、wants his children to learn from their grandfatherB、comes to understand what parental love meansC、learns how to communicate with his fatherD、hopes to give whatever he can to his father49、What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?A、The call solves their disagreementsB、The Swiss watch has drawn them closerC、They decide to learn photography together.D、They begin to change their attitudes to life50、What could be the best title for the passage?A、Love Nature, Love LifeB、A Son Lost in AdventureC、A Journey with DadThe Art of TravelDPeople aren’t walking any more---if they can figure out a way to avoid it.I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel、The journey isa matter of 281 steps、But I used the car、And I wasn’t in ay hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs、At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill、It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship、And the effect was lasting、When I was 45 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart、But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper…… is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly、And wlaking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot、The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world, He cannot learn in a car.The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life、Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat、To them security is asteel river thundering on a concrete road、And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light、And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.51、What is the national sickness?A、Walking too muchB、Traveling too muchC、Driving cars too muchD、Climbing stairs too much.52、What was life like when the author was young?A、People usually went around on foot.B、people often walked 25 miles a dayC、People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.D、people considered a ten-j\hour walk as a hardship.53、The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove thatA、middle-aged people like getting back to natureB、walking in nature helps enrich one’s mindC、people need regular exercise to keep fitD、going on foot prevents heart disease54、What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph6?A、A queue of carsB、A ray of traffic lightC、A flash of lightningD、A stream of people55、What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?A、To tell people to reflect more non life.B、To recommend people to give up drivingC、To advise people to do outdoor activitiesD、To encourage people to return to walking第II卷第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题.Last December, Doris Low turned 90、Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into Braille() to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers、She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40 years.After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up、So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.Low’s mother liked reading、As her eyes began to fail, low read to her、Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.”In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber (转译者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.The job was strenuous ---she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again、For a number of years, low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape、Three years ago, she took up proofreading (校对) at the CNIB’s word factory.In April, during V olunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions、Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80,000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print、“ I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited fromDoris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.“For me,” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer、Three thins matter most in my life:a little play, a little work, a little love、I’ve found them all here.”56、What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB?

created the world's first long﹣distance signing device（装置），the LongPen．After many tiring…from city to city，Atwood thought there must be a better way to do them．She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004．Together they designed the LongPen．Here's how it works：The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet（手写板）using a special pen．On the receiving end，in another city，a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book．The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams（网络摄像机）and computer screens．Work on the LongPen began in Atwood's basement（地下室）．At first，they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be．The device went through severalversions，including one that actually had smoke coming out of it．The investing finally completed，teat runs w ere made in Ottawa，and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006London Book Fair．From here，Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and New York City．The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time．It has several other potential applications．It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province．The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof when legal documents are used．"It's really fun"，said the owner of a bookstore，who was present for one of the test runs．"Obviously you can't shake hands with the author but there are chances for a connection that you don't get from a regular book signing．The response to the invention has not been all favorable．Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she is trying to end book tours．But she said，"It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn't afford it．"41．Why did Atwood decide to invent the LongPen？．A．To set up her own companyB．To win herself greater popularityC．To write her books in a new wayC．To make book signings less tiring42．How does the LongPen work？．A．I copies the author's signature and prints it on a book．B．It signs a book while receiving the author's signature．C．The webcam sends the author's signature to another city．D．The fan uses it to copy the author's signature himself．43．What do we know about the invention of the LongPen？．A．It has been completed but not put into use．B．The basement caught fire by accident．C．Some versions failed before its test run．D．The designers were well﹣prepared for the difficulty．44．How could the LongPen be used in the future？．A．To draft legal documents．B．To improve credit card securityC．To keep a record of the author's ideas．D．To allow author and fan to exchange videos45．What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5and 6？．A．Atwood doesn't mean to end book tours．B．Critics think the LongPen is of little useC．Bookstore owners do not support the LongPenD．Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high cost．46．（12.5分）"Dad，"I say one day …..take a trip．Why don't you fly and meet me？"My father had just retired…..His job filled his day，his thought，his life．While he woke up and took a warm shower，I screamed under a freezing waterfall Peru．While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch，I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks．My father sees me drfting aimlessly，nothing to show for my 33years but a passport full of funny stamps．He wants me to settle down，but now I want him to find an adventure．He agrees to travel with me through the national parks．We meet four weeks later in Rapid City．"What is our first stop？"asks my father．"What time is it？""Still don't have a watch？"Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore．As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite，his mouth and eyes open slowly，like those of little boy．"Unbelievable，"he says，"How was this done？"A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son．We stare up and I ask myself，Would I ever devote my life to anything？No directions，…I always used to hear those words in my father's voice．Now I hear them in my own．The next day we're at Yellowstone National Park，where we have a picnic．"Did you ever travel with your dad？I ask．"Only once，"he says．"I never spoke much with my father．We loved each other﹣﹣﹣but never said it．Whatever he could give me，he gave．"＞The kast sebtebce﹣﹣﹣﹣it's probably the same thing I's say about my father．And what I'd want my child to say about me．In Glacier National Park，my father says，"I've never seen water so blue．"I have，in several places of the world，I can keep traveling，I realize﹣﹣﹣and maybe a regular job won't be as dull as I feared．Weeks after our trip，I call my father．"The photos from the trip are wonderful，"he says．"We have got to take another trip like that sometime．"I tell him I've learn decided to settle down，and I'm wearing a watch．46．We can learn from

father is interested in sculptureB．His father is as innocent as a little boyC．He should learn sculpture in the futureD．He should pursue a specific aim in life．48．From the underlined paragraph，we can see that the author．A．wants his children to learn from their grandfatherB．comes to understand what parental love meansC．learns how to communicate with his fatherD．hopes to give whatever he can to his father49．What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story？．A．The call solves their disagreementsB．The Swiss watch has drawn them closerC．They decide to learn

Travel．51．（12.5分）People aren't walking any more﹣﹣﹣if they can figure out a way to avoid it．I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel．The journey is a matter of 281steps．But I used the car．And I wasn't in ay hurry，either，I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness：motorosis．It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune （免疫的），for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs．At that time，we regarded 25miles as good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill．It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship．And the effect was lasting．When I was 45years old I raced﹣and beat﹣a teenage football player the 168steps up the Stature of Liberty．Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle﹣aged persons as bad for the heart．But a well﹣known British physician，Sir Adolphe Abrhams，pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper…is more likely to have i llnesses than one who exercises regularly．And wlaking is an ideal form of exercise﹣﹣﹣the most familiar and natural of all．It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot．The man walking can learn the trees，flower，insects，birds and animals，the significance of seasons，the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world，He cannot learn in a car．The car is a convenient means of transport，but we have made it our way of life．Many people don't dare to approach Nature any more；to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat．To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road．And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green．I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light．And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting．51．What is the national sickness？．A．Walking too muchB．Traveling too muchC．Driving cars too muchD．Climbing stairs too much．52．What was life like when the author was young？．A．People usually went around on foot．B．people often walked 25miles a dayC．People used to climb the Statue of Liberty．D．people considered a ten﹣j\hour walk as a hardship．53．The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that．A．middle﹣aged people like getting back to natureB．walking in nature helps enrich one's mindC．people need regular exercise to keep fitD．going on foot prevents heart disease54．What is compared to"a steel river"in Paragraph6？．A．A queue of carsB．A ray of traffic lightC．A flash of lightningD．A stream of people55．What is the author's intention of writing this passage？．A．To tell people to reflect more non life．B．To recommend people to give up drivingC．To advise people to do outdoor activitiesD．To

Blind （CNIB）in Toronto，where she helps transform literature into Braille （CNIB）to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers．She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40years．After working in the business world for a while，Low got fed up．So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library．Low's mother liked reading．As her eyes began to fail，low read to her．Then"hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille，I decided to give it a try．"In 1973，she was certified as a braille transcriber （转译者）and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library．The job was strenuous﹣﹣﹣she could get to the end of a page，make a mistake on the last line，and have to do the whole thing again．For a number of years，lowalso worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape．Three years ago，she took up proofreading （校对）at the CNIB's word factory．In April，during Volunteer Week，the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions．Thanks to volunteers like Low，the CNIB library has got more than 80，000accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print．"I can't imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited fromDoris's contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years﹣﹣﹣and she is still doing so，"said a CNIB official．"For me，"said Low，"the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer．Three thins matter most in my life：a little play，a little work，a little love．I've found them all here．"56．What does Low still do at the age of 90at the CNIB？（no more than 10words）57．why did Low learn Braille？（no more than 15words）58．what does
