    B
    If you enjoyed the spring-like sunshine over the weekend and thought the weather has finally turned a corner, you’re sadly mistaken.
    Chilly (寒冷的) days and grey clouds are forecast for the week—making it far too early to pack away the winter woollies.
    Temperatures will struggle to rise above zero at night and fail to make double figures during the day.
    People enjoy the spring sunshine in Sefton Park, Aigburth, Liverpool. Forecasters have predicted a return to chilly weather this week.
    Met Office forecaster Charlie said, “It was a nice, dry, bright weekend in many parts and Monday is going to be a similar affair for many.”
    “Temperatures will be between 5℃and 8℃, which is below average for the start of spring.”
    The sun will disappear from the south of the country after today, with dry but cloudy conditions forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday. 
    Wednesday will be warmest of the three, with temperatures peaking at 9℃. But this is still two degrees below the March average for the district.
    Overnight, temperatures will drop sharply, with lows of minus 3℃for the next three nights.
    “It will generally stay on the cold side of average,” said Mr. Powell.
    The March misery comes at the end of the coldest winter for more than 30 years.
    Temperatures in December, January and February struggled to stay above zero, with the UK’s average 1.5℃, making it the deepest freeze since 1978—79.
    It claimed there was just a one-in-seven chance of a cold December to February.
    The agency also sadly predicted a “barbecue summer”, saying it was “quite optimistic” that it would be warmer and drier than average.
    Following the two mistakes, the Met Office has dropped its long-range seasonal forecasts and will instead publish a monthly prediction for Britain, updated once a week.
    In its defense, it says that while short-term forecasts are extremely accurate, Britain’s size and geographical position makes long-term predictions much more challenging.
    It also points out that it gave warning of any heavy falls of snow this winter.
    60. According to the passage, the weather on Tuesday in the south might be _______.
    A. dry but cloudy  B. sunny but chilly  C. sunny and warm  D. cloudy and chilly
    61. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. British people can put away their winter clothes now.
    B. The Met Office has shortened its forecast range.
    C. The weather forecast becomes more and more accurate.
    D. The agency was quite confident of long-term predictions.
    62. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
    A. The big chill isn’t over yet                    B. A warm spring finally arrives
    C. A heavy snow is on the way               D. The Met Office drops forecasts
    63. From the passage, we can conclude ________.
    A. the weather report is more and more important
    B. British people become worried about bad weather
    C. Britain has just experienced a very freezing winter
    D. The Met Office can always predict any heavy snow falls accurately

    If you want to take the whole family on holiday, and keep everybody happy, then I have found just the place for you. I recently went with a group of friends to stay at the Greenwood Holiday Village, which is open from May until October.
    Built in the centre of a forest, Greenwood is a great place to stay whatever the weather is like. Its main attraction for families is the indoor World of Water, where young and old can have fun in the different pools. Some of these, however, are for serious swimmers only.
    For sporty people, the Country Club offers tennis, squash and badminton. If your children are too young to join in these sports, there are activity clubs. Greenwood is a good place for families as it is traffic-free-you explore on foot or by bike. Some people complained that this was inconvenient, but I was pleased to be out in the fresh air. For evening entertainment, there are shows and cinemas.
    Accommodation is in a variety of apartments of different sizes. These have up to four bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom, as well as a dining area. Before going, I thought the apartments might not be big enough for all of us, but I was pleasantly surprised ― it was not too crowded at all.
    I'll definitely go back to Greenwood next year. Why don't you give it a try? Visit their website for further information now!
    65. From the text, the reader can find out ______.
    A. the best way to get to the holiday village
    B. the best time of year to visit the holiday village
    C. what activities are available at the holiday village
    D. how to reserve accommodation at the holiday village
    66. What does the writer think about the holiday village?
    A. The apartments there are not big enough.
    B. It is not convenient because you cannot use your car.
    C. It can only be enjoyed in good weather.
    D. There is something there for all ages.
    67. Which of the following statements about the apartments is TRUE?
    A. There is not much space between them.      B. Each one has its own bathroom.
    C. They all have four bedrooms.                    D. Not all of them have dining areas.

    B
    If you have a bottle of water recycled from urine(尿), would you drink it? Astronauts at the ISS may soon do so.
    NASA（美国航空航天局）said it would see a high-tech machine to recycle wastewater at the ISS. The machine will recycle water for washing hands, shower water, water for brushing teeth and even urine to make drinking water. It will save millions of dollars each year.
    At present, each ISS astronaut uses about 4.4 liters of water every day. It costs about 24 million dollars a year to send water up to the ISS. A liter of water costs about $11,000.
    The machine will be sent to the ISS later. NASA hopes it will recycle about 93% of all the water used on the station.
    Will the water be clean? Different chemicals will be put in the wastewater. The water will be heated to 130℃ to kill bacteria. Scientists say that the recycled water is thousands of times better than the water from a city tap(水龙头).
