12．Fantasies for young readers really began with the fairy tales of writers such as the Brothers Grimm．Of course，all the children who grow up reading these books and tales never，at heart，really grow up at all，for such wonderful stories are forever carved in their minds．And fairy tales are as much fun to read when we are fifty，only for memorable reasons，as they are when we are children．
But it's obvious these days that fantasies aren't only for the little ones．In 1977，23years after The Lord of the Rings by Tolkien was published，Terry Brooks published his first novel，The Sword of Shannara．It became the first work of fiction ever to appear on the New York Times Trade Paperback Bestseller List，where it remained for over five months．Following the release of Tolkien's work，earlier works of fantasy，like T．H．White's Once and Future King and Eric Eddison's The Mezentian Gate （in 1958）came out before The Sword of Shannara，but neither had an influence quite like The Sword of Shannara．Fantasies were truly reborn．
As the popularity of fantasies began to grow quickly，the film and television industry climbed aboard the bandwagon．During the eighties，the fantasy/adventure movie was born．Conan is a classic to the eighties．The lack of really good fantasy movies in the recent past can be blamed on substandard special effects．However，now，in an age of post-modern computer technology，the impossible is no longer a concern．Since the release and popularity of The Lord of the Rings，cinema screen production rights have been bought for scores of fantasy novels，from Terry Brooks to Robert Jordan．
The future of fantasies has never looked so assured．Even children's cinema has had its own successes through the big screen release of the Harry Potter series and the classic Peter Pan．While there remains a choice to go beyond the reality we know，there will always be fantasies．

65．What can we learn from the first paragraph？B
A．Children reading fairy tales never grow up．
B．Fantasies are attractive to persons of all ages．
C．Fantasies appear earlier than fairy tales．

A．The special effects in the movies are not good enough．
B．They are not good stories．
C．The actors in the movies are poorly-skilled．
D．There are not big theaters for them．
67．What does the passage mainly talk about？C

11．Every day we are exposed to images，videos，music and news．In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation，the medium of radio is making a great comeback．
"We're  at  the  beginning  of  a  golden  age  of  audio，"said  US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald．In the last month alone，15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast （播客）．These
statistics，released by Edison Research，show the successful evolution of traditional radio  broadcasts  to  the  present  day's  digital  podcast  format．The  term"podcast"was invented in 2004，but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years．With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smart phones and tablets，podcast sales have jumped．
The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities．You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when you're walking to the shops，waiting in a queue or riding the subway．Similar to television shows，podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week．
Donna Jackson，22，Sydney University media graduate，listens to podcasts two or three times a week，via iTunes．"I listen while I'm wandering around the house doing something else．It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable…And it's an easy way of keeping in touch with what's going on in the rest of the world，"she said，"I mainly listen to BBC podcasts，but recently I've also been listening to This American Life and Serial．They have a special skill to really draw you in．"
Unlike television and music，the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers．Blumberg says this owes to the podcast's ability"to create close relationship and emotional connection．"Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust，majoring in social work and arts，agrees．"When you're listening，it feels as if the voice of the podcast's storyteller is talking directly to you．It's comforting，"said Proust．
It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well．

5．随着经济的发展，环境污染日益严重，洪水、干旱（drought）等自然灾害接连不断地发生，雾霾（smog）、沙尘暴等天气频繁出现，这一切严重威胁着我们的生活．怎样减少污染呢？请你根据下列提示以How to Protect the Environment为题为你校校报写一篇文章．
1．政府应通过新的法律，控制工业污染．
2．公众应该提高环保意识，改变自己的生活方式，如节电、节水等等．
3．作为中学生，我们应该…．

How to Protect the EnvironmentAs we all know，with the development of economy，our environment is being polluted more and more seriously．As a result，natural disasters such as floods and droughts continuously happen and extreme weather including smogs as well as sandstorms appear now and then，threatening human to a great extent．（高分句型一）In order to make the earth a better place for us to live on，in my opinion，we should do something as follows：
First of all，the government should pass new laws to prevent industrial pollution．What's more，the public are required to raise the awareness of protecting the environment and change their life style．In their life not only should they save electricity and water but also they are supposed to have waste materials recycled．（高分句型二）
As students，we should take action in our daily life to protect the environment around us．For example，when doing shopping，we will try to use environment-friendly shopping bags instead of plastic ones to reduce"white pollution"； when going out，it is a good idea to take buses rather than take private cars to reduce waste gas in the air．
All in all，only when everyone does what he/she can to protect the environment can we have a more beautiful earth．（高分句型三）．
