I love listening to music and will try to do it as much as I can.Whether I'm driving my car or walking somewhere I always have a CD or my iPod playing because I feel music can greatly influence my mood(情绪).I can listen to music to cheer me up or relax me or remind me about a certain time and a certain place where I last listened to that song.

I feel the best way to listen to music is live!I love going to concerts to watch and hear my favorite artist or band perform.

The last concert I went to was a Mumford and Son's concert in Newcastle,a country﹣folk style band from the Uk.All of the lights and sound effects not only sounded good but also looked good.

Dear Died,

Today I was at the shopping centre and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards.But as I chose add read,and chose add read again,it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to you.

You'll soon be 84 years old,Dad,and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together.I didn't think that you were too old.But the sad thing happened last week.I watched as you turned at the corner in your car.I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly.

Fifty years ago this spring,we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City,Iowa.This week,we'll plant carrots together again,perhaps for the last time but I hope not.I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me.Well,I don't quite know how to tell you this,dad …I don't like carrots…but I like planting them with you.

I guess what am trying to say,Dad,is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today.Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home,money or shares a dinner.It's more about a dad deeply loving children who know everything and won't listen to anyone.It's about sharing.It's about loving someone more than words can say,and I wish that it would never end.

Lover,

Jenny.

Finding a New Place

Max is new in town.His family just moved into a new apartment.Max asked the landlord(房东)where he might go to meet people of his own age.

"The Community Center is for people of your age.I am sure you could find some friends there,"said the landlord."Is the Community Center far from here?"Max asked."No.It's only a few blocks away.It's about a ten﹣minute walk from here,"replied the landlord."Give me a minute,I'll write down the directions."

Max smiled.He hoped that he would make some friends at the Community Center.

The landlord gave Max a note.Max read the words on the note.

Max's smile disappeared.He would never be able to find the Community Center because he didn't know how to follow directions that used words like north and west.

Max needs to get a map of his neighborhood.This map could help him find directions.He took the directions and the map from his landlord.He was sure he could find the Community Center.The landlord told Max that the front door of his building faces west.

When he came out of his building,he walked west on the Main Street until he came to the park.

Taylor Street was right next to the park.He looked at his direction note.It said,"Then,walk north on Taylor for one block."

Some days,don't you think,"Wouldn't it be nice if the laundry would just do itself?"Self﹣cleaning clothes may sound crazy.But Australian researchers have found a way to make something like this possible!

A team at RMIT University in Melbourne,Australia,found a way to put special nanostructures (纳米结构) into clothing,which can then clean the clothes.When sunlight hits the nanostructures,they break down the dirt and stains (污渍) that don't belong on your clothes.

The nanostructures don't break down the actual clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to be broken down.According to CNN,the researchers cover the clothing in a solution made of silver and copper (铜) nanostructures.All it takes is 40minutes of sunlight and your clothes will look as good as new.

So if you spill on yourself during lunch,you can step outside for a walk,and it will be clean by the time you go inside.It not only makes your life easier,but it can also be good for the environment.

According to the US Department of Energy,the average load of laundry uses about 25gallons (about 94liters) of water.Water is a very important resource,so using less of it to wash clothes is better for the environment.But one of the scientists at RMIT University knows more needs to be done.

"There's more work to do before we can start throwing out our washing machines,"said Dr Rajesh Ramanathan,"but this is a strong foundation (基础)."

So what's the next step?Ramanathan wants to either start selling the solution by itself or convincing (说服) clothing makers to treat the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made.

57.How do the clothing with the nanostructures get cleaned?  

A.Cotton clothes wash easily                     

B.This kind of clothing washes it by itself.

C.The dirt and stains are broken down in the sunlight.

D.Silver and copper help to get off the dirt in the dark.

58.What do Paragraphs 4﹣5talk about?  

A.What advantages the self﹣cleaning clothes have.

B.How the self﹣cleaning clothes work.

C.How the self﹣cleaning clothes are made.

D.What helps the self﹣cleaning clothes work.

59.What does the underlined word"solution"in the last paragraph mean?  

A.Machines        

B.Clothes.

C.Silver.

D.Design.

60.What can we learn from the passage?  

A.Silver and copper sell well.

B.The solution is not put into practice.

C.Clothing makes certainly like the solution.

D.We don't need washing machines any more.
