Let’s suppose it is now about 2060. Let’s make ourselves believe it is about 60 years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.

It’s as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. Many air-conditioned hotels have been built so that people can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon; every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.

People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.

Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our plant’s surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.

People are now largely vegetarians. You see, as the number of people increase, the number of animals decrease. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and the cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.

Such would be our life in 2060.

       One day, not too long ago, the employees of a large company in St. Louis, Missouri returned from their lunch break and were greeted with a sign on the front door. The sign said,  “Yesterday the person who had been hindering(阻礙) your   16  in this company passed away. We  17  you to join the funeral in the room that has been  18  in the gym.”

    In China, some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage listeners to take part in the talk shows.

   That is a good idea. Yes, the fact is that some people do nothing but break the whole programme.

   Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance(無知). Then the host has to answer and explain ---how silly it is! It wastes a lot of time.

   It seems that some people phone the hotlines for fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They do not care what the topic is, whether they themselves are interested in the topic or how silly they appear to be.

It is necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller does not know what is going on, the operator should not let the caller take part in it.

47. The underlined sentence “some people do nothing but break the whole programme” may tell us that _____

   A. radio stations use hotlines in a wrong way

   B. there are problems to solve in the use of hotlines by some radio broadcasting stations

   C. the use of hotlines by some radio broadcasting stations is a good idea

   D. some people have unclear thoughts

48. The underlined word“operator” in the last paragraph refers to_____

       A. 話務員        B. 聽眾        C. 醫(yī)生         D. 主持人

How can he       without money for food during the journey?

  A. get together          B. get along                  C. get back                   D. get down

  A. get along with                            B. put up with   

C. keep up with                        D. make up for
