Thanks for bringing me down here to the university last Sunday. Classes didn’t start until Wednesday, so I had a few days to get adjusted. I’m signed up for five classes: zoology, calculus, English, and two history sections. It’s a heavy load, but they are all courses that will count for my degree. The zoology class which meets at 8:00 every morning is going to be my hardest subject. The history class that I have in the morning is on Western Civilization; the one in the afternoon is on early United States history, our ancestors’ life. Calculus which I have at noon every day looks like it’s going to be easy. Besides zoology, the other class that’s going to be hard is English, for you see, we have to do a composition a week.

I like all of my classmates but one. There are four of us in our suite including two girls from Texas and a girl from Manitoba. Sally who is from San Antonio is great: I feel like I’ve known her all my life. I also really like Anne who is the girl from Manitoba. Heather the other girl from Texas is kind of a pain, though; she’s one of those types of people who never tell you what’s bothering them and then get hostile. I don’t know how to get along with her but I’ll try my best to make friends with her. This I take as one other class I myself open. All in all, though, it looks like it’s going to be a great year. I’ll write again in a week or so.

Do your kids like plastic toys? Well, I guess it’s time for them to play with wooden toys.

I have always liked kids’ wooden toys since I was five. I always ran along on the back of a hobby horse pretending to be a cowboy from the West when I was a little boy. Now I’m a dad and I still like buying these timeless natural wooden toys. They will never be out of style. My daughter has a child’s rocking horse, and my two sons have wooden trains and cars. The great thing about this type of toys is that they will last generations if they are treated kindly. Even if they break, most of the time they can be repaired using spare parts bought from wooden-toy makers, and if the part is not too complicated(复杂的), you yourself can make the part from a piece of wood.

What if they do break and can’t be repaired? Well, at least they can be dealt with without having any bad effects on the environment. They can be turned into wood chippings and used for pathways in the country or play areas for kids. Even if the wooden toy is buried as rubbish, which is very rare these days, it will not harm the soil or the environment.

I like all types of wooden toys. There is such a wide variety of wooden toys today and the choice is getting bigger day by day. As an alternative(替代品) to plastic toys, wooden toys can’t be beaten. I’m sure in the near future wood will no doubt become the number one material for making toys, as plastic becomes more and more expensive because of rising oil prices and the environmental issues concerning plastic. Plastic toys might harm kids’ health, too.

   A. be taken back by the makers            B. need a lot of money to deal with

   C. not harm the environment              D. be collected by collectors

68. From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.

   A. plastic will be used up sooner or later

   B. plastic toys will not be allowed to be sold very soon

   C. wooden toys will become more popular in the future

   D. wooden toys will become more and more expensive

69. Which of the following is NOT the reason why plastic toys will be less popular in the future?

   A. That plastic has bad effects on the environment.

   B. That plastic toys might harm the health of children.

   C. That plastic toys offer children few choices.

   D. That oil prices are getting higher than before.

70. We can infer that this passage is written to _______.

   A. tell us the disadvantages of plastic toys
