       There is much discussion today about whether economic growth is desirable. At an earlier period, our desire for material wealth may have been justified. Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serous problems. Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much, too fast.

       Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down. They believe that society is approaching certain limits on growth. These include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment, and the continuing increase in the world’s population. As society reaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease.

       People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. They believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world. Furthermore, they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial resources required to protect our natural surroundings from industrialization.

       This debate over the desirability of continued economic growth is of vital importance to business and industry. If those who argue against economic growth are correct, the problems they mention cannot be ignored. To find a solution, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another.

60. According to those who argue against economic growth we must slow down for the following reasons EXCEPT that___________.

       A. our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industry

       B. the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which economic growth cannot continue

       C. the world population is ever increasing

       D. more efforts should be made to improve the quality of our material life

61. Those who want more economic growth believe that continued economic growth ________.

       A. is essential to the well-being of society as a whole

       B. can provide the solution to many of our social problems today

       C. can protect our environment from being polluted by industry

       D. can provide us with more natural resources for industrialization

62. The passage is mainly about___________.

       A. the contradiction between economists and the business community

       B. the present debate on economic growth

       C. the advantages and disadvantages of economic growth

       D. the author is very much worried about the problems caused by continued economic growth

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and they seldom give their children a free hand.

It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they tend to forget how they themselves felt when young. For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Older people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected. When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.

Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music．But they do not mean to cause any trouble: it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted．That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.

Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say, “ Yes” to what you do. All you want is to be felt alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control. If you plan to control your life, you’d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.

Below are several excerpts(节选)from the travel diary kept by Ann,one of the students from Canada.

 I am representing Canada. I feel lucky to have won a place on this trip.Tomorrow we are visiting Pompeii. Next week we are flying to Loulan,in China. 48  Pompeii and Loulan became lost civilizations. The city of Pompeii was founded in the 8th century. Near the city  49  a volcano called Vesuvius.Unfortunately ,all the people were buried  50  by the volcano , and  51  was the city. When I walked around the city, I saw streets just they had been.It’s hard to imagine how this quiet volcano destroyed the city. In July, after several days of travelling we arrived in Loulan, a small,wealty commercial city which  52  between the East and the West almost 2,000 years ago.100years ago the Swedish exporer Sven Hedin discovered the ruins of the Loulan Kingdom gradually covered by sandstorms.When we went to the city, we found the ruins most interesting. There was an ancient water system  53  ran through the middle of the city. The desert was once a green land  54  enormous trees, but even that didn’t prevent the city from  55  buried by sand---what a pity!
