The United States of America is faced with serious traffic problems. Too many cars travel on the freeways to and from the city. This heavy traffic causes delays and lots of pollution from cars that are using their engines but not moving anywhere. Many cars going nowhere is called a “traffic jam”.

While many cities in the United States have traffic problems,some of the worst are in Los Angeles,California,which is a big city with a large downtown area. One of the reasons why there is so much traffic is that few people use public transportation to get around.

Experts say one possible solution to the traffic problems in Los Angeles would be to make people want to use the public transportation system of buses instead of their own cars. People say the buses should be made easier,faster,less costly and more dependable than driving a car.

One suggestion is to reduce the cost of taking the bus. Also,Los Angeles could make the buses easier for people to use. The buses could travel to more places in the city. And there could be more special lanes on the freeways that only buses could drive in. These changes would make taking the bus faster and easier than driving a car.

Other experts have said that the best way to ease traffic problems is to charge people money to drive on the freeways. These charges,or tolls,would be for the most crowded roads. The tolls would be in effect during the times of a day when most people drive to work and home. These times in the morning and late afternoon are called “rush hour”. People would try to avoid driving on these roads,which would decrease the amount of traffic. Also,the money collected from these tolls could be used to improve the roads and public transportation system.

Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy's surprise,it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.

“Sorry,I had to keep you waiting,but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office.

第一节阅读表达(共4小题;每小题2. 5分,满分10分) 

No one can believe that the over 6 ,300-kilome-tre-long Great Wall might disappear some day. Believe it or not,the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty is still perfect,but about 80 percent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realise that the length was made up of one brick at a time.  ,it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.

The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2 ,000 years. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu,because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have almost been forgotten.

The bricks on the Great Wall were carried off by country people to build their houses,sheep corrals and pigsties. Some were taken away to build roads. Bricks carved with peopled names were put away as remembrances. Rubbish was spread over the battlements (城垛) . The bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Wall know its name,but arc not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but also dug out the entire base.

It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. The officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall and the young Chinese should know more about the nation's great civilisation and learn to love it.

56. What is the best title of the passage? (No more than 6 words) 

        

57. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

However,they have nearly forgotten the parts of the Great Wall that are not well known to the public.

        

58. Please fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (No more than 10 words)

        

59. Translate the underlined sentence in the third paragraph into Chinese.
