This road, in the truest sense, was a path wagging in the heavy 22 area. Even with the sun still high in the cloudless sky, the 23 of trees formed a leafy 24 over the road and it suddenly seemed 25 in the evening.“A guy could get lost and nobody would ever find him,” said Chambers.Smith smiled, “We're 26 there,” he said. A few seconds later, the smile was 27 from his face.“What the hell is that?”He braked to a stop. Less than twenty feet away was what appeared to be a 28 . For several minutes the two men sat in the pickup 29 to decide whether they had happened to 30 someone's bad practical joke or something far more serious.

Crosswalk can be especially dangerous for the elderly. Among people 70 and older, 36% of pedestrian deaths in 2006 occurred in crosswalks, compared with 21% of those younger than 70 , according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.The Federal Highway Administration(FHWA)advises that next year states increase by nearly 15% the amount of time traffic lights provide for pedestrians to cross the street after the flashing orange hand appears .FHWA spokesman Doug Hecox says reasons for the change include an aging population that needs more time to cross, health-conscious Americans walking more , children encouraged to walk to prevent getting overweight and high gas prices pushing people to walk instead of drive.Pedestrian deaths went down by 12% from 5,449 in 1996 to 4,784 in 2006 . But among those in 2006, 471 were killed in crosswalks, down slightly from 488 ten years earlier, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says .36. Which of the following is true according to the text ?A. Among 100 pedestrian deaths there were 21 people younger than 70.B. Old people are more likely to meet with accidents in crosswalks.C. Traffic accidents killed more old people than young people.D. About seven traffic accidents happened per hour.37. What is FHWA’s suggestion to states?A. Fixing more traffic lights.B. Providing more crosswalks.C. Giving pedestrians more time to cross streets.D. Increasing the time before the orange lights appear.38. What’s the cause of the crosswalk safety problem according to the test?A. There’re many cars and buses on the road.B. Pedestrians are careless.C. Crosswalks are crowded.D. Drivers don’t give way.39. The report from NHTSA suggests that _______ .A. fewer people were injured in crosswalksB. crosswalk safety has been greatly improvedC. much has been done to reduce traffic accidentsD. pedestrian deaths in crosswalk remain a serious problemBIf you want to teach your children how to say sorry ,you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.If you say to your children "I'm sorry I got angry with you, but... ", what follows that "but" can make the apology ineffective: "I had a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache"leaves the child who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior.Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say "I'm sorry you're upset"; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.These pseudo(虚假的)-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not turn to these pseudo-apologies.But even when presented with examples of true regret, children still need help to become aware of how difficult it is to say sorry. A three-year-01d might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children's expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that taking away the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.40. If a mother adds "but" to an apology, ____________.A. the child may find the apology easier to acceptB. the child may feel that he should apologize to his motherC. she does not realize that the child has been hurtD. she doesn't feel that she should have apologized41.

It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is ___________.A. not necessary among family membersB. a sign of social progressC. not as simple as it seemsD. a matter calling for immediate attentionCJust getting accepted to an American college or university does not guarantee that you will get a visa. And getting a visa just lets you arrive in the United States. It does not guarantee that an immigration officer will permit you to enter the country.If you are requesting a visa for the first time, you will probably have to go to an American embassy or consulate(领事馆). You will need to bring a government form sent to you by your American school that shows you have been accepted.You will also need banking and tax records that show you have enough money to pay for your education. And be prepared to provide evidence that you will return to your home country after your studies end.All of this is important in satisfying the requirements to get a visa. A consular official will also take your picture and your fingerprints.Foreign students must contact their local embassy or consulate to request an interview and to get other information. This includes directions about how and where to pay the visa application charge. The cost is two hundred dollars.You should apply for the visa as soon as you have been accepted to a school in the United States.

And if you are coming as a student for the first time, you cannot enter the country more than thirty days before classes begin.Once you come to the United States, you can stay for the length of your period of study.
