As Guangzhou is accelerating its preparation for the 2010 Asian Games, Guangzhou citizens in every field are making an endeavor to help the host city take on a new look. On the 5th of January, Mayor Zhang Guangning announced that the government is considering giving its people a big Asian Games present as a reward for their cooperation and devotion to the Games. As to what the present would be, relevant departments would collect ideas from the citizens.
This good news has brought about great guesses among Guangzhou people. Thus various opinions have emerged. Some prefer to have several days’ holiday as a reward, while others hope to receive the tickets to the events in the Asian Games. Sports lovers are eager to have free access to city stadiums. Some opportunists suggest the government hand out lottery tickets, in which case they may have the chance to win a big fortune. In contrast, those who hold a down-to-earth attitude are looking forward to some new year lucky money or to have more discounts when taking buses or the subway. For apartment hunters in their 20s or 30s, nothing can be more comforting than the thought of being able to buy an Asian Games Village apartment at a reasonable and acceptable price.

COPENHAGEN—The world is gathered in Copenhagen for the U.N. climate summit, but Denmark’s bicycle-friendly capital has also given its name to a movement of cities trying to find a kinder way to commute（往返上下班）.
Nearly 40 percent of Copenhagen’s population cycle to work or school on ubiquitous（无处不在的） paved cycle paths. Many residents take to their bikes year-round, braving rain and snow through the winter in a city where the bicycles outnumber the people.
Amsterdam and Beijing too are known for their bicycles, but the Danish capital is where urban planners from around the world have been looking for ways to get their people out of cars and up onto bikes, an effort known as Copenhagenisation.
Klaus Bondam, Copenhagen’s technical and environmental chief, calls himself a “mega cyclist” and says the bike’s popularity stems partly from high taxes on cars which meant working-class Danes could not afford to drive in the 1930s and 40s. “Today you’ll meet everybody on the bicycle lanes --- women and men, rich and poor, old and young,” Bondam said.
The local government has during the last three years invested more than 250 million crowns ($49.42 million) in bicycle lanes and to make the traffic safer for bicyclists. Today around a third of the population drive cars to work or study, another third take public transport, while 37 percent cycle -- a figure the city aims to boost to 50 percent by 2015.
There are many benefits when citizens choose bicycles over cars: pollution and noise decline, public health improves, and more people on bikes or walking creates a sense of safety in the city. Fewer parked cars leaves more space for playgrounds, parks, shopping areas and other useful public places.
54．According to the first paragraph, Copenhagen is better known as __________.
A．a city without cars B．a bicycle-friendly city
C．Denmark’s capital D．the U.N. climate summit
55．We can learn from the second and the third paragraph, _________.
A．there is no path for cars during rainy and snowy days
B．citizens are limited to have only one bike for each person
C．two-thirds of people in Copenhagen cycle to work or school
D．city planners try their best to encourage more citizens to ride bikes
56．Bikes are popular in Copenhagen partly because __________.
A．the citizens are unable to afford to buy a car
B．the rich tend to keep fit by cycling to work
C．young people regard cycling a fashion to follow
D．high taxes were paid for cars in the 1930s and 40s
57．Which of the following is NOT the benefit of cycling?
A．Saving time on the road. B．Declining pollution and noise.
C．Improving public health. D．Creating safety in the city.

You might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in the world’s temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation of an island nation. The citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.
During the 20th century, sea level rose 8~12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the country’s drinking water.
Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）,which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years.” Laupepa told the BBC.
Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.
Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable （易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.
1.. The text is mainly about_________.
A. rapid changes in earth’s temperature
B. bad effects of global warming
C. moving of a country to a new place
D. reasons for lowland flooding
2... What is the probable meaning of the underlined word in the first paragraph?
A. 撤离 B. 危险 C. 淹没 D. 消失
3.. According to scientists, the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is_________.
A. greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nations
B. continuous global warming
C. higher surface water temperatures of the sea
D. rising sea levels
4.. Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not_________.
A. believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real
B. sign an agreement with Tuvalu
C. allow Tuvaluans to move to the US
D. agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions
5.. The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is_________.
A. Australia
B. New Zealand
C. the United States
D. the Maldives
