10.When couples get married,they usually plan to have children.Sometimes,however,a couple can not have a child of their own.In this case,they may decide to adopt(收養(yǎng)) a child.In fact,adoption is very common today.There are about 60 thousand adoptions each year in the United States alone.Some people prefer to adopt infants,others adopt older children,some couples adopt children from their own countries,and others adopt children from foreign countries.In any case,they all adopt children for the same reason----they care about children and want to give their adopted child a happy life.
     Most adopted children know that they are adopted.Psychologists(心理學(xué)家) and child-care experts generally think this is a good idea.However,many adopted children or adoptees have very little information about their biological parents.As a matter of fact,it is often very difficult for adoptees to find out about their birth parents because the birth records of most adoptees are usually sealed.The information is secret so no one can see it.Naturally,adopted children have different feelings about their birth parents.Many adoptees want to search for them,but others do not.The decision to search for birth parents is a difficult one to make.Most adoptees have mixed feelings about finding their biological parents.Even though adoptees do not know about their natural parents,they do know that their adopted parents want them,love them and will care for them.

18.Our children and grandchildren may not have a chance to visit many of the most famous places around the world.War,weather,age,traffic and pollution all damage these famous places.Looking after these places often costs more than one country can afford.
In the early 1970s,world governments decided that if they joined together,they would be able to preserve our history.If every country paid some money,they said,it would be possible to look after important historic places.Also,if they discovered that a monument had been damaged by people,they would have money for repairs.For these reasons,countries around the world united to form the World Heritage Organization in 1972.Today,the organization helps to preserve and repair the most important places from our history.
However,one of the biggest problems for historic places is vandalism.People sometimes enter the sites and destroy or damage the buildings.At some sites,such as Stonehenge in England,governments have built high walls to protect the site from vandals(故意破壞者).
There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism.Some experts say that if guards(保安人員) patrolled(巡邏) the sites,vandals would not be able to get in.Some experts say that if they fixed more television cameras,they would not need so many guards.Other experts say that the best solution is education.If people learned to respect history,they would not destroy or damage it.They would also want to spend money looking after old places.For this reason,the World Heritage Organization helps to spread information about the value of historic sites.
61.According to this passage,A is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1for the reasons why the famous places are damaged?
A.people's awarenessB.pollution
C.war and climateD.traffic
62.Which of the following shows us the action of vandalism?C
A.Governments build high fences to protect the site from vandals.
B.Guards patrolled the sites and they fixed more television cameras.
C.People enter the sites and cause damage to the buildings.
D.They collect as much money as they can to preserve the buildings.
63.What's the best way to solve the biggest problem of preserving our history?D
A.Every country spends more money looking after the historic places.
B.All the countries unite to repair the historic sites.
C.Too many guards are needed to prevent vandals getting in.
D.To make people know more about the value of historic sites.

C.helps to preserve our history
D.offers people information about vandalism
