We were on tour a few summers ago, driving through Chicago, when right outside of the city, we got pulled over(被迫停车). A middle-aged policeman came up to the ear and was really being troublesome at first. He said, \we were on our way to Wisconsin to play a show. Then his way towards us totally changed. He asked, \so you boys are in a band?\type of music we played, and how long we had been at it.
Suddenly, he stopped and said, \the officer asked him to step out of the car. The rest of us, inside the car, didn' t know what to think as we watched the policeman talk to Tim. Then the policeman put Tim in the back of the police car and threw the car into reverse(倒车), stopping a few feet in back of our car.
Now we suddenly felt frightened. We didn't know if we were all going to prison. Suddenly, the
policeman's voice came over in a loudspeaker. He said, \have Tim here singing on Route 90.\songs over the loudspeaker in the police car, we would get out of the ticket. Seconds later, Tim started screaming into the receiver. The policeman enjoyed the performance, and sent us on our way without a ticket.

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the
doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime(消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits. 57. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food? A. Those who often do sports.
B. Those who often watch television. C. Those who often have meals at home. D. Those who often walk to school.
58. The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because ______. A. they can't choose what to eat
B. they are too busy to go out and play C. their parents often cook meals for them D. there are too many fast food shops around
59. The word \A. forcing B. guiding C. driving D. moving
60. The main purpose of the text is to ______. A. tell a story B. provide facts C. give advice
D. compare opinions

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? 61 After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.
62 Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory. Do you know what a \声称) as its won. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. 63 If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. 64 But he expects an outsider almost all the time, especially at nesting(筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird' s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
