There are a total of seven billion tons of garbage kept in Chinese cities and this garbage together takes up 600 million square meters of land space. Urban garbage has now become one of the four major polluting sources in China.
China has about 700 cities. Every day, these cities produce 100 tons of garbage in total and the amount still increases by 8%-10% every year. In China, about two-thirds of the cities are surrounded by garbage. In many cities, the garbage is in the open air with on one to take care of it. The garbage not only damages the city’s image, it also pollutes the air, water and soil, and puts a threat to human health.
China will face a critical (关键的) period in its modernization drive in the fifty years to come. As urbanization(城市化) process has quickened, the garbage in cities will become a serious problem to our human life and we should pay great attention to the problem, said Dong Suocheng, executive director of the China Resources Institute.
In the next fifty years, China’s population scale(规模) and urbanization process will reach its top, which will produce more garbage. Considering this, China should make great efforts to develop recycled economy. On the one hand, China should make sure that less garbage will be produced; on the other hand, China should make good use of garbage resources and turn garbage handing into an industry, and make sure that garbage industry will cover every part of garbage processing, from garbage collecting and classifying to garbage transportation and treatment. This might serve as a good way to solve the garbage problem in cities, he said.

阅读下面短文，简要回答问题。
The World Health Organization estimates (估计) 20,000,000 babies are born too small each year. It says a baby weighing less than 2,500 grams at birth has a less than desirable weight for good health. 95 percent of such children are born in developing countries.
One recent study shows that pregnant (怀孕的) women in developing countries have healthier babies if the women are given vitamins. Researchers from the United States and Tanzania found that vitamins could help reduce low birth weight. Their findings were reported last month in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Wafaie Fawzi of the Harvard School of Public Health led the study. Professor Fawzi says low birth weight can cause serious health problems in babies. He says low birth weight has been linked to poor growth and mental development, and even early death.
There are fourteen kinds of vitamins. People who do not get enough of these chemicals in their food, or want more, often take multivitamins (多种维生素).In the study, multivitamin pills were given to 4,200 pregnant Tanzanian women.The pills contained all the Bvitamins,as well as vitamins C and E. They also embodied iron and other nutrients in levels several times higher than advised for women in industrial nations.
Four thousand other women received a harmless substance(物质). None of the women had the virus that causes the disease AIDS.
68．On what condition can pregnant women in developing countries have healthier babies?

第三部分:阅读理解
What happens to old school buses when they can no longer safely carry kids to school? Most go to waste factories to be changed into pieces of metal. But a few of the old vehicles (车辆) find new lives in the center of Africa. Most of those buses end up on the streets of Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Kinshasa buses are that yellow color, which makes them stand out (突出) in the city’s heavy traffic, but the buses don’t look at all as they did in the United States. In Kinshasa their taillights(尾灯) are almost all missing or broken. They don’t obey traffic rules and often race around the city very fast. The buses compete with motorcycles, cars, trucks, and other vehicles for space on the road. They make loud sounds when moving, and they are packed with people carrying loads of goods, such as fish, milk, beans and onions.
However, Kinshasa business people love the old, yellow buses, which they buy from American companies, because the vehicles are strong, reliable (可依靠的) and inexpensive. A used bus sells for about $2,000 in Congo. A new bus is more expensive. In the United States, a new school bus with all its lights working costs about $80,000.
The fare (票价) to travel across the city is usually about 30 US cents. “Transport is a big problem in Kinshasa,” says passenger Bruce Kingambo. “But the yellow buses help people here get around.”
56．The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means “In the center of Africa some old US school buses can be_________.”
A．useful B．expensive C．free D．new
57．Before the school buses leave America for Congo, they_________
A．have broken taillights
B．don’t obey the traffic rules and move at full speed
C．carry many people and goods
D．don’t compete with other vehicles
58．How many used buses can you buy in Congo for the price of a completely new school bus in the USA?
A．10. B．20. C．30. D．40.
59．The passage mainly tells us _________
A．how to use old school buses
B．about new lives for old school buses
C．to try to take old school buses
D．how to drive old school buses
