閱讀下面的短文,請根據(jù)短文后的要求答題(注意問題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求)
Brockingham is run by people who are more interested in tourists than its residents.By banning all fast-food restaurants and discount stores,they take away all the places kids can afford to shop.
These people forget that when they were young,they could go to the South Street Soda Fountain and get an ice.cream soda for 25 cents.Today you can’t find an ice-cream soda anywhere in Brockingham for less than $2 1 Where can kids go for a snack?
There is not a single restaurant in Brockingham where a family of four can eat dinner for less than $100.Add a 15%tip and sales tax and you have spent nearly $125 to eat a meal you could prepare at home for about $12.Have you noticed that Brockingham families never dine in Brockingham?
Fast.food restaurants are also a good place for school kids to get an after-school job.Fast-food restaurants are the busiest during the early supper hours when students are able to work , whereas the fancy food restaurants cater to late-night diners. Working in one of these establishments requires working shifts that are too late for most students.  The City Council claims that local merchants,rather than national chains,should benefit from the tourist business.I agree that it is important to support local businesses,but I think the fast-food restaurants would encourage more people to shop in Brockingham.
Another thing          is that we must travel 25 miles to the nearest discount store.If I need a tire for my bike,I have a choice of buying one at Surf and Peddle Sport Shop for $15 or driving to Parkersburg Discount Center where I can buy the same kind of tire for $9.Again,I  think the ban on all food chains and discount houses is counterproductive for our city.    
76.List three reasons why the writer supports fast-food restaurants.
①____________________________________________________________________________
②____________________________________________________________________________

A new report says the number of foreign students at colleges and universities in the United States increased by three percent last year. This has been the first obvious increase since 2001.
American schools last fall had 583,000 foreign students. The record is 586,000. That was set in 2002 after many years of gains. But after that the numbers fell. The terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001 led to more visa (簽證) requirements. Now stronger efforts are being made to get more foreign students to study in the United States.
China remained in second place in front of South Korea but behind India, which sent almost 84,000 students last fall. The number of Japanese fell sharply by nine percent, although it remained in fourth place.
There were three percent drops from Indonesia and Kenya, the only African country in the top twenty last year. But there were obvious increases from Saudi Arabia, Nepal and Vietnam. The number of Saudi students more than doubled, rising to nearly eight thousand.
For a sixth year, the University of Southern California in Los Angeles had the most foreign students. Columbia University in New York was second. Other schools in the top five were New York University, the University of Illinois and Purdue University.
Unlike American students in other countries, who often choose history and language study, the leading area of study in the USA was business and management. Second was engineering.
The new report also says more than 220,000 Americans studied in other countries. That was during the 2005-2006 school year. It was a record number, and an increase of eight and a half percent from the year before. But only five percent of them stayed for a full year.
1 After 2002, the number of foreign students in the USA fell mainly because ____ .
A. Americans were worried that foreign students might attack them

3 Which subject is the most attractive to foreign students in the USA?

A. Kenya is the only African country that has students in the USA
B. now foreign students are encouraged to study in the USA
C. the number of students studying in America always increases

Einstein, a great scientist of the age, was almost as strange as his Theory of Relativity.

He had nothing but contempt(蔑視) for the things most people set their hearts on --- for fame and riches(財富) and luxury(奢華).

Millions of people around the world cook their food over smoky fire every day.It is often difficult to find wood for the fire .People who do not have wood must spend large amounts of money on cooking fuel. However, there is a much easier way to cook food using energy from the sun.
Solar cooker, or ovens,have been used for centuries.A Swiss scientist made the first solar oven in seventeen sixty-seven. Today ,people are using solar cookers in many countries around the world. People use solar ovens to cook food and to heat drinking water to kill bacteria and other harmful organisms.
There are three kinds of solar ovens.The first is a box cooker, It is designed with a special wall that shines or reflects sunlight into the box .Heat gets trapped under a piece of glass or plastic covering the top of the cooker. A box oven is effective for slow cooking of large amonts of food.
The second kind of solar oven is a panel cooker. It includes several flat walls.or panels.that directly reflect the sun’s light onto the food. The food is inside a separate container of plastic or glass that traps heat energy. People can build panel cookers quickly and with very few supplies. They do not cost much.In Kenya ,for example ,panel cookers are being manufactured for just two dollars.
The third kind of solar oven is a parabolic cooker.It has rounded walls that aim sunlight directly into the bottom of the oven .Food cooks quickly in parabolic ovens .However, these cookers are hard to make.They must be re-aimed often to follow the sun .Parabolic cookers can also cause burns and eye injuries if they are not used correctly.
You can make solar ovens from boxes or heavy paper. They will not catch fire. Paper burns at two hundred thirty-two degrees Celsius. A solar cooker never gets that hot. Solar ovens cook food at low temperatures over long periods of time. This permits people to leave food to cook while they do other things.
1.What is the main purpose of the author in writing the passage?
A.To tell the readers how to make solar ovens.
B.To advertise the solar ovens.
C.To give the readers brief introduction of solar ovens.
D.To help readers to save cost on fuel.
2.According to the passage we can conclude that ______.
A.panel cooker is the cheapest oven of the three
B.panel cooker is easy to make
C.box cooker is easy to make
D.box cooker is the most effective oven
3.If you have much food to cook ,you’d better choose      .
A.a box cooker
B.a panel cooker
C.a parabolic cooker
D.a paper cooker
4.From the passage we know that      .
A.solar cookers are dangerous to use
B.solar cookers don’t burn while cooking
C.solar cookers cost less than other cookers
D.Swiss often use solar cookers while cooking
