5．Are you preparing any gifts for your friends now？（36）C，but choosing a proper gift can be a big headache，because it takes a lot of time and effort to think of the right gift for someone．Before you finish your list，keep these dos and don'ts in mind：
◆Do put thought into your gift．
If you like something，that doesn't mean that your friend is going to like it，too．（37）D．Don't get him/her an ordinary gift，and reflect back on your previous conversations to see if he/she talked about a certain gift he/she had been wanting to get．
◆（38）A．
Make sure the gift you're buying is appropriate for the person．For example，if you're buying a friend a gift，remember not to overspend or personalize it too much．Take a moment to think about how your relationship is with the person before getting him/her something．
◆Do get a gift receipt （收據(jù)）．
If you're purchasing something for your friend，make sure you ask the salesperson to include a gift receipt．It's just a polite gesture，and you know your money won't go to waste．（39）E．
◆Don't leave the price tag （標簽） on．
Make sure you don't leave the price tag on the gift and that you're giving a gift receipt and not the original bill．（40）G，and it's not important for him/her to know anyway．
A．Don't buy an inappropriate gift
B．Don't be afraid of spending money
C．Giving gifts has forever been so pleasant
D．Take some time to really think about what he/she likes
E．If your friend doesn't like the gift，he/she can just exchange it
F．Giving someone you care about a very special gift can be tough
G．It's not proper to let your friend know how much you spent on the gift．

2．Hello．I'm Jan from Mrs．Lake's class．My class wants to work together to help the public．We think we have found a great way to do this．Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town．We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program．This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads．We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway．
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet．When a highway is adopted，only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people．The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean．Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it．The sign is put up at the side of the road．This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean．
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer．Also，the government does not have to send out as many road workers．This saves money．Finally，people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people，especially teenagers like us，cleaning them up．
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway．If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean，please come with your parents to the meeting next week．We will meet in Mrs．Lake'room on Wednesday at 6：00P．M．At the meeting，we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts．Then we'll try to pick an area to adopt and clean．
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting．Remember to keep our roads clean!

29．What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about？C
A．Giving names to the highways．
B．Drawing pictures of highways．
C．Picking up litter along the roads．
D．Putting up signs near the roads．
30．What should the students do first if they want to join the program？D
A．Pick a spot to care for．
B．Call Mrs．Lake next week．
C．Write a letter to their parents．
D．Go to a meeting on Wednesday．
31．What is the purpose of this speech？A
A．To encourage students to join the program．
B．To introduce the traffic system．
C．To show drivers how to drive safely．
D．To tell a story about adopting a pet．
32．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？B
A．Adopt-a-Pet                    
B．Adopt-a-Highway
C．Ways to Protect the Environment   
D．Volunteers on Roads．
