Beijing plans to keep a tight rule on pollution by cutting emissions caused by industrial production and vehicles when it hosts the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in November.

From November 3 to 12, the city will restrict the use of private vehicles based on evenand oddnumbered license plates, reducing the use of such vehicles by 35 percent, the municipal (市政府的) traffic committee said on Thursday.

All vehicles transporting construction waste and dangerous chemicals will be banned from the capital's roads during this period, but the restriction will not apply to buses, taxis and other vehicles such as police cars.

The measures are similar to those introduced from July 20 to Sept. 20 in 2008 during the Beijing Olympic Games.

“The number of passengers using public transport will increase by 3 million a day, ” said Li Shaoming, deputy director of the Beijing Traffic Management Bureau.

During the 10 days, 400 additional buses will be used to transport commuters to meet the increased demands.

The municipal government has also drawn up eight plans to reduce industrial pollution during the AsiaPacific Economic Cooperation forum.

Zhuang Zhidong, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, said, “From Nov. 3, production at some companies listed by the government will be suspended for 10 days.”

Work will also be suspended at all construction sites and on demolition projects during this period.

“More importantly, Beijing will work with its neighbors to control emissions，” Zhuang said, adding that there will be regular discussion on air pollution among six governments.

Neighboring authorities in Tianjin Municipality, Hebei, Shanxi and Shandong Province and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region will operate strict pollution control measures over the 10 days.

【题目】The Internet and the World Web (网) are great places to be right now. We use the word "place" because so many of the things you can do online are similar to the things you can do wherever people gather together－in homes , schools , libraries , shopping centers , or at family reunions（团聚）or town meetings. The Net allows people to learn shop, find important information, and communicate, whether they're local, global or simply virtual (虚的) .

The Web is useful. You can find old friends online. You can research and book flights, check the weather, find breaking news, find out information about schools and colleges. You can even place an order for books, CDs, computers and cars.

The Internet is also fun. You can write to old friends or check out their web pages, enjoy web - based soap operas, laugh at online jokes, join in a live Net Event, chat with other Internet surfers(漫游者) , check to see if your name appears anywhere on the Web .

Millions of users log on to the Net every day, and it's not just to do research. There's a lot of fun there. That's one reason why it's called web "surfing".

Of course, the first step to using the Web for business or for fun is learning how to work a "web browser"（浏览器）. If you're new to computers, it may take a while before you are completely comfortable with your browser. Don't worry. You don't have to be a computer 　whiz（专家）. The basics of a web browser are very much like the basics of modem computers

—learning how to point and click the mouse, learning how to scroll（滚动） up and down a page of text, and learning how to use pull - down menus. Again, be patient. There's no time limit on web surfing . Give yourself a chance to explore (探索) the browser itself while you explore the Web.

【1】The writer compares the Web to ______.

A. places to visit B. places to gather together in

C. some easy job D. things you can do online

【2】We can learn from the text that the Web is not only ______ but also

A. of great use; of great value B. of great use; of great enjoyment

C. useful; funny D. of some use; of a little interest

【3】To use the Web, all we have to do is to learn how to_______ .

A. use the computer mouse B. scroll up and down a page of text

C. use pull- down menus D. all the above

【题目】增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号∧，并在右边的横线上写出该加的词。

删除：把多余的词用斜线＼划掉，在右边的横线上写出该词，并用斜线划掉。

修改：在错词下面划一横线，并在右边的横线上写出修改后的词。

【1】He then moved to New York , Which he became very famous. _________________

Dear Mum，

Sorry to have kept you waiting last night. Excuse me for my come back late. I was held up because the power failure in the school. The lights sudden went off in the middle of the play. The students were confused about how to do. I was in the charge of the staging of the play, but I could not leave the stage in disorder. I had to try my best to control the situation. I arrange to light the candles preparing for the play in advance. After the performance, I called a few taxi to take the actors home since many of them lived far away. I hope you do not mind my lately return.

Love，

Li Hua
