阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项.

  Holidays are really important.Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different ways.

  But holidays are expensive and, for those on low wages or living on benefits, they are often unobtainable.Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meet.

  For working parents, the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare.When an annual leave allowance amounts to only five weeks, there is a need to spread this across the year.Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday.For some ’ this makes even an affordable family holiday difficult.

  The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment.The number of children receiving free school meals is quite large in Nottingham and many schools have breakfast clubs to make sure that children get a healthy start to the day.Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational support.Schools also have an important role in sofeguaiding children's welfare through the ongoing touch and support with their pupils.During the long summer holidays, much of this is missed.

  While teachers are holidaying in the UK, many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they live.The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning.

  In setting out its plans for a five-term year, Nottingham City Council(委员会)is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down lo four and a half weeks, with a more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks, each followed by a two-week break.We believe this will give real “down time"for school staff and pupils alike but will be short enough not to cause a real break in learning.

  We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff, particularly whose own children are educated in other authorities.However, this must be weighed against the benefits for city children for whom we all have the greatest duty of care.

Ms Lo could hardly bear her sorrow when she received the call that her husband had died in a car accident. Her pain quickly turn to shock---- the car involved in the accident was driven by a friend. That friend, Henry Lee, had chosen to remain silent on the accident details in court. Her shock soon turned to extreme anger when Lee decided not to let out what had happened.

I wanted to forgive him, but now I have no chance to tell him.” she said.

If you think that life in a city is faster than you can imagine,you are not far wrong.

A British research study found that,globally,people's walking speeds have increased by 10 percent over the last decade,with the biggest increases in the Far East.The research ranked Singapore,Copenhagen and Madrid as the world's most frenetic(发狂的)cities.

While in Singapore,the walking pace has risen by 30 percent,in Guangzhou,China,the figure was 20 percent.

However,some cities usually noted for their intensity,were relatively low on the scale.New York was rated eighth,while London twelfth and Tokyo came in at position 16.The most laid-back places are Blantyre in Malawi and Manama,in Bahrain.The research was carried out by Professor Richard Wiseman,of the University of Hertfordshire,in Hatfield,north of London,who measured the average time it took 35 adults in each city to walk 60 feet.

“By 2040,we’ll be arriving before we set off,” said Wiseman.“The psychology is basically that peoples’ walking pace is determined by how much they think they’re in a hurry and how quickly they think they should be doing things.”

Wiseman adds,“I believe a lot of it is technology-driven.What’s amazing is that these days,you send an email and if someone hasn't responded in lo minutes,you think,‘Where are they?’”

Wiseman compared his results with statistics collected by Professor Robert Levine from California State University in the USA,10 years ago,to see how much we have speeded up.

“People who worry about whether their lives are too frantic(狂乱的)should ask themselves questions like whether they are often first to finish meals,if they feel frustrated when stuck behind others walking down the street,and whether they walk out of shops if they have to wait behind a small queue,” Wiseman said.

1.How did Professor Richard Wiseman arrive at the ranking?

A.By making on-site inspections.                B.Through lab research.

C.From an news report.                               D.By carrying out a questionnaire.

2.From the passage we learn _________.

A.the more developed area people live in,the faster pace of their walking

B.the walking pace in New York has relatively slowed down

C.how quickly they believe they should do things decides on their thinking

D.how quickly people do their things is determined by technology

3.Wiseman gives the example in Paragraph 6 to support the opinion “_________”.

A.by 2040,we'll be arriving before we set off

B.our fast walking pace is technology-driven

C.life in a city is faster than imagination

D.the biggest increases are in the Far East

4.The underlined word in Paragraph 4 “laid back” most probably means _________.

A.leisurely                                                  B.backward

C.fast-paced                                                 D.underdeveloped

5.The last paragraph intends to tell the reader that people should _________.

A.try to adapt to the fast-paced life of cities

B.try to be the first at any occasion

C.obey public orders  

D.ask themselves about their need to rush around
