Dear sir

I'm a middle school student. I have something to talk with you. In my school, many students have mobile phones（手机）.They think it's cool to have a mobile phone. Really the phones come in fun colours and let students talk with their parents and friends at any time. But I don't think it's good to send messages（短信）.It takes them a lot of time to do that. Some students always hope to buy the latest mobile phones and this will waste（浪费）their parents' money. And my father tells me that most mobile phones can cause health problems. Could you do something to stop it?

Worries about school bus safety have drawn much attention. Now schools in some poor areas are looking   41  some other ways to go to school.
In the countryside, students are living in different places. And there isn’t enough   time for school buses to go around and pick up   42  student. So the most useful way is to let students living in the   43  village take a special school bus which is for them only. And the cost is   44  by their parents and the school.
Each bus is asked to carry only five students on the same route(路线) every day. Traffic police are also making daily checks to make sure drivers don’t carry__45  than 5 students. For a bus like this, the drivers can   46  make any money. So schools pay 300 yuan to drivers every month. The rest comes from the parents’ pockets（口袋）.
The roads to the students’ homes are rough(崎岖的) and sometimes even dangerous,   47  falling rocks and narrow（狭窄的） bridges. After spending at least an hour on the road, the students finally make it home.   48 the money for taking a bus has increased and it’s not easy for parents to make money, they are glad to know that their children will   49  home safely each day. And they feel happy to see their child enjoy their time at school. But one girl says she’s seen the big yellow school   50  on TV, and wonders when she’ll ride one of her own.

【小题1】Students use mobile phones to_________.

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers(young people aged from13~19)from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”
【小题1】This year ________teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.
