Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank with one word that best fits the context.

In Beijing, traffic has become a real problem. Roads can be a nightmare. The Beijing municipal government has released new measures intended to ease the city's traffic jams.

Rush hour has become much longer. No matter how 48   the avenue is, it will come to a grinding halt (走走停停). The highway resembles a parking lot ― rush hour 49 not.

“I can’t recall a day 50 constant traffic problems”, a Beijing driver said, “A five-kilometer journey, has already taken me nearly an hour.”

This is 51 the city needs to take immediate actions to solve the problem. The Beijing municipal government introduced 52 series of measures. The proposal on parking charges is arousing public attention.

Unlike what people thought that all kinds of charges will be raised, in areas outside the fifth ring, parking fees are being reduced from three to two yuan per hour. In areas inside the fifth ring 53 not key areas, parking fees have been reduced from seven to six yuan per hour. More details of these measures are still waiting to be published.

Beijing’s traffic jam is 54 big a problem to be left unattended (无人管理的). Over the last ten days, municipal officials have been asking for public opinion, in their attempts to find a solution. It remains to be seen 55 today’s newly published policies will have the effect expected.

  Beijing, China's cultural center, is making its theatres and music halls more popular with ordinary people by reducing ticket prices and organizing more colorful performances.

  Attending a performance or concert at weekends should no longer be a luxury, said Zhang Heping, director of the Beijing Municipal(市政府的)Cultural Bureau, at the government department's yearly work conference.Zhang put into a number of changes last year to increase audiences, such as designing some low-cost performances, the most popular of which was a show called“Open the Door of the Music”, aiming at students on summer vacation.

  Previously(先前), performances had tickets priced at above 100 yuan-more than one tenth of the average monthly salary of a Beijing resident.But the low-cost shows would limit prices between 5 yuan and 30 yuan.

  Zhang said it was wrong to believe that few people remained interested in cultural performances.“Tickets had simply been out of most people's reach,”Zhang said.More than 10 Beijing professional performance bodies have gradually been taken off government funding(投资)in recent years and have been left to fend for themselves.Zhang said“less profit, more audience”is better than“no profit and no audience”.

  Beijing has planned to become an international city, but needs first-class cultural performances as well as first-rate infrastructure(基础设施).Zhang also emphasizes the importance of large-scale(大型)activities, promising to organize more of them this year like open-air concerts performed by various amateur(业余)groups.

(1)

C.
