Do you plan to go to Hong Kong Disneyland with your family this summer? If your dad smokes, you may have to ask him to be careful. From January 1^st, Hong Kong banned（禁止）smoking in most public places.　　
These places include restaurants, workplaces, schools and so on. Even smoking in some outdoor places is not allowed, for example, beaches, sports ground, museums and most areas of public parks.　　
　Hong Kong　 hopes the ban can stop passive smoking. What is passive smoking? When people smoke in a restaurant or on a bus, others have to smoke too. They don’t want to smoke but they have no choice. This is passive smoking. It is bad for people’s health.　　
And it’ll be better if more people in 　Hong Kong　 give up smoking because of the ban. Jack Lee, a 26-year-old student says, “The ban is really good. I don’t like people smoking next to me. It’s so smoky and smelly.”　　
If someone breaks the ban, he will be fined HK$5,000.　　
　Hong Kong　 is not the first Asian city to have a smoking ban. On January 1, 2006, 　　Singapore　　 banned smoking in most public places.

　　Dear Mr Heppell,

　　I am Sabrina Akhtar studying in a high school and I've noticed that forests are disappearing(消失).

　　You know, forests are disappearing around the world each year. This is because of many different reasons including farming, tourisms pollution(污染), etc. If we stop doing these things, there will be a good future for people of tomorrow.

　　Now I'm writing to ask you to help stop forests from disappearing. You can help by getting shops to stop selling paper made from trees and changing to tree-free paper(paper not made from trees). This will help forests so much. There are many, many things we can do to help forests. If you would like to know more, please visit http://www.Rainforestweb.org/. By changing the little things, we can make a big difference.

　　If you would like to contact me, please see the above address or e-mail me at shazadinol@hotmail.co.uk.  Thank you for taking your time in reading this letter.

　　　 In 1985 I visited China.I thought many Chinese parents put much pressure on only high school students.But in the following years, I found the pressure came to primary school children, then those of pre?school age, and finally newborn babies and pre?born children.

In order to succeed, one or two years before entering kindergarten (幼稚园) they must study English, drawing, singing, and dancing, and the three years of kindergarten are mostly spent to build up an early lead in primary school performance.

What if parents let their 3 or 4 years old child enjoy free time on Saturday and Sunday, after five days in nur?sery? They would be thought to be wasting their kid's early life.As others do, so must they do.

　　　 Yet children have not only the right, but the need to play.Kindergartens should not be a school.There should be no classroom, no lesson, no homework, and especially no exams.Instead, playing should be the first thing for children.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

They need to play with others and also to play on their own, as playing is good for learning in a lively way. Children can discover numbers while playing games and the alphabet (字母表) through songs.Some Chinese cha?racters can become familiar to them by being used in games.But the problem with kindergartens is very serious.Chinese parents think studying is more important.Children work hard while having less and less time to play.What these parents fail to realize is that they are following the examples of how not to raise a kid.

(　　)6.What's the situation of children in China now?

　　 A.They have much pressure.　　　 B.They play too much.

C.They have no pressure.　　　　　 D.They work hard but happily.

(　　)7.Why don't parents let their 3 or 4?year?old kids enjoy free time? Because ________.

　　 A.kids don't want to play　 　　　　B.they have to do what other people do

C.the government ask them to do so　 D.the grandparents ask them to do so

(　　)8.According to the author, what should a kindergarten be like?

A.A school with lessons.　

B.A class with exams.

C.A place where children can play freely.

D.A place where children only play games.

(　　)9.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Only middle school students spend much time in studying.

B.Studying is the most important for children.
