Today I went on a school trip. We visit the science museum and it was really interested. We got to there so fast by train. We saw some farms and village along the way. At the museum, I learned a lot about robots. I didn't know they could play chess about us. It was so cool! Then the guide taught us how make a model robot. I take a lot of great photos, too. after that, I went to the gift shop but bought some lovely gifts for my parents. They weren't expensive. All at all, it was an exciting day.

For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.

Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants（污染物）can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.

People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.

As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building—green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb（吸收）or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and healthier place.

A．indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill

A．the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside

B．the building way that the builders want to save energy

C．the building things that are made of man-made materials

D．the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow

4.The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that

A．plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors

B．plants may take in more oxygen （氧气）which people need

While small may be beautiful，tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems，particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants．
The Tall Persons Club Great Britain （TPCGB），which was formed six months ago to campaign （发起运动） for the needs of the tall，has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants．Beds that are too small，shower heads that are too low，and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height，it says．
But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met．The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds，doorways，and chairs has remained unchanged．
"The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it，so even a king-size bed at 6′6″（6feet and 6inches） is falling short for 25% of men，while the standard 6′3″bed caters for （满足需要） less than half of the male （男性） population．"Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy，"Seven-foot beds would work fine．"
Similarly，restaurant tables can cause no end of problems．Small tables，which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them，are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere．
Some have already taken note，however．At Queens Moat Houses′Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh，6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors，particularly Americans．
64．What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign？C
A．To provide better services．
B．To rebuild hotels and restaurants．
C．To draw public attention to the needs of the tall．

A.7′2″．B.7′．C.6′6″．D.6′3″．
66．What may happen to restaurants with small tables？A
A．They may lose some customers．
B．They may start businesses elsewhere．
C．They have to find easy chairs to match the tables．
D．They have to provide enough space for the long-legged．
67．What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh？B
A．Tall people pay more for larger beds．
B.6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds．
C．Special rooms are kept for Americans．
