摘要：71．Which of the following is not true? A．Both the United States and Russia took part in the World Cup in 1990. B．Tunisia took part in the World Cup in 1998. C．Portugal met the United States in 1992 in Portugal. D．Tunisia has never met Russia before today’s game. E Take the case of public education alone. The chief difficulty faced by the schools has been the amazing increase in the number of pupils. This has been caused by the advance of the legalage for going into industry and the impossibility of finding a job even when the legal age has been reached. In view of the technological improvements in the last few years, business will require in the future proportionatelyfewer workers than ever before. The result will be still further raising of the legal age for going into employment, and still further difficulty in finding employment when that age has been gained. If we cannot put our children to work, we must put them in school. We may also be quite confident that the present trend toward a shorter day and a shorter week will be kept up. We have developed and shall continue to have a new leisure class. Already the public agencies for adult education are swampedby the tide that has swept over them since depressionbegan. They will be little better off when it is over. Their support must come from the taxpayer. It is surely too much to hope that these increases in the cost of public education can be borne by the local communities. They cannot care for the present limited and not good enough system. The local communities have failed in their efforts to deal with unemployment. They cannot expect to deal with public education on the scaleon which we must attempt it. The answer to the problem of unemployment has been Federal support. The answer to the problem of public education may have to be much the same, and properly so. If there is one thing in which the citizens of all parts of the country have an interest, it is in the good education of the citizens of all parts of the country. Our income tax now goes in part to keep our neighbors alive. It may have to go in part as well to make our neighbors clever. We are now attempting to save the present generation through Federal support of the extremely poor. Only a people determined to ruin the next generation will refuse such Federal fundsas public education may require.

　　阅读理解：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．

　　By May 5, the Palestinians had accepted the plan, but Israel still wanted major changes to be made.

　　The latest fighting between the two states began in September 2000．Over the past 31 months, thousands of Palestinians and Israelis have been killed and injured. Israel and Palestine have fought against each other since Israel created its own state in 1948. When Israel won the 1967 war, it gained control of East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza. Since then, the Palestinians have demanded these three areas be part of their state.

　　Mahmoud Abbas became Palestine's new prime minister after Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat was forced to agree to share his power. Both the US and Israel had refused to enter into peace talks with Arafat, whom they consider unreliable (不可靠的) .

　　The road map for peace leads in two directions: the safety of Israel and a state for the Palestinians.

　　The plan was written last December by the US, the United Nations, the European Union (欧盟), and Russia.

　　The first step is to stop the violence (暴力) on both sides. Palestinians would draw up a constitution (宪法) for their government. And Israelis living on land that was once Palestine would not build new homes. The second step calls for an international conference that draws up the creation of a Palestinian state. The final step aims for a lasting agreement between Israel and the Palestine, and the support of neighboring Arab states (阿拉伯国家).

　　US officials hope that both sides will follow the road to peace by 2005．But to take the first step will be no easy task. Hours before the plan was announced, a suicide bomber (自杀爆炸者) killed himself and three others in Tel Aviv, Israel. The next day, 12 Palestinians were killed and 15 others were injured in an attack by the Israeli army on Gaza City.

　　The Palestinians say that the two sides should be taking steps at the same time. But Israel demands the first step must be an end to Palestinian violence.

　　In the face of such disagreement, many analysts (分析家) don't believe the plan can ensure a peaceful future in the Middle East.

1．What is the main point of this story?

[　　]

A．The fighting between Israel and Palestine.

B．The long process(进程) for Israel and Palestine to achieve peace.

C．New chance and plan for peace in the Middle East.

D．International efforts to bring peace to the Middle East.

2．What lies at the root of the conflicts (冲突) between Israel and Palestine?

[　　]

A．Israelis and Palestinians have different beliefs.

B．Israelis live on land that once belonged to Palestinians.

C．The founding of Israel.
