Most high schools have at least four sports they offer to their students. In many districts, there must be an equal amount of sports for boys and girls. Some schools even have sporting clubs. High school sports have been an important part of the high school curriculum(课程) for many years. However, not all parents fully realize the importance. Some children are not even allowed to participate in school sports, because of the cost, the time commitment(投入), or the possibility of injury.

The truth is that high school sports are more than just fun. They are great tools to help students learn about life. They can teach students teamwork, cooperation, and leadership, etc. Students can take these things into their everyday lives as well. When they build their confidence on the sporting field, students are also building confidence against the world. They will be able to work well with others in all other areas of their life.

High school sports are also the perfect way to keep teens away from drugs and other dangerous behaviors. Coaches are great role models that can often encourage players to be well behaved. Some schools even have limits on GPAs (grade point average) for their athletes. If a student athlete’s grades fall below a certain point, they cannot play. Students who love sports will do anything to play, including studying more. They will also be less likely to try drugs or break the law in any other manner. So, allow your children to participate in school sports. Get involved and make friends with the parents of the other students. The whole family can have a great time and learn about sports together.

64. The passage is mainly written for ____.

A. high school teachers                                 B. high school students

C. students’ parents                                   D. sports lovers

65. The author believes that high school sports are ____.

A. interesting and useful                            B. important and cheap

C. expensive but worthwhile                          D. dangerous but meaningful

66. What does the underlined part “Coaches are great role models” mean?

A. Coaches respect athletes’ wishes.   

B. Coaches are a good example to students.

C. Coaches are good partners.        

D. Coaches are great athletes.

Imagine being the only person in the Forbidden City. You could stay there all day without swarms of people crowding around. You'd be able to look at the ancient treasures without worrying about other visitors pushing you for a better view. Well, in two years time you'll be able to have such an experience, just like the former emperors used to. The only difference is that your Forbidden City fun will be online.

Thanks to new technology, a virtual(虚拟的) tour of the Forbidden City will be available online by 2008. The project - jointly driven by the Palace Museum and computer company IBM - aims to help teenagers around the world become more interested in Chinese culture. The project will offer an interactive, three-dimensional view of the palace. The virtual tour will provide images from all over the 780,000-square-metre palace.

"The Palace Museum is a big book; there are always places you haven't read about," said Hu Chui from the museum. There are many rooms closed for protection. But the virtual platform breaks the boundaries of time and space, meaning visitors can see whatever they want. "The interaction and games content in the virtual tour will attract more young people to understand and love our cultural heritage," added Hu.

In the virtual tour, historical figures will actually talk to visitors and answer their questions. The stories behind the buildings and treasures will also be told. "The online environment, presented in both Chinese and English, enables visitors to experience the culture and stories of the museum," said James Yeh, an IBM official.

68. If you visit the Forbidden City now, which of the following won't be the case you'll have?

A. It is crowed with a lot of visitors.          B. Visitors are pushing you for a better view.

C. You are the only person in it.                D. You can see some ancient treasures in it.

69. Which of the following is not the advantage of the virtual tour of the Forbidden City?

A. Visitors can see whatever they want.   B. Visitor can ask and talk to historical figures.

C. Visitors can get to know the cultural heritage by playing games.

D. Visitors can walk around the Forbidden City with your family.

70. The "project" underlined in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

A. a virtual tour of the Forbidden City
