In 1988, Yellowstone Park had some very bad fires. They burned all summer. Firefighters worked hard to put them out, but the fires were too big. They moved too fast. The fires burned until fall, when snow finally put them out. Because many trees and much grass burned, the fires changed the land. Soil washed away, and some animals were killed. But now, good things are happening at Yellowstone. There are more things for the animals to eat. Flowers, berries and grass grow where the fires burned the trees. The deer and elk like the good grass, bears like the berries, and dead trees make good homes for bugs and birds. Also, new trees are growing. Yellowstone is not like it was in1988. But it is still a good place for animals to live. ( )36. The main idea of the whole story is that _______ A .the fires changed Yellowstone Park.

If a policeman sees you, you’ll have to pay a fine (罚款). New traffic laws (交通法) say that if people cross the street when the light is red, they can be fined as much as 50 yuan. Traffic accidents killed more than 104,000 people in China last year. Chinese cities have more cars than ever. Drivers and pedestrians (行人) must work together to make the streets safer. The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians. Drivers have to slow down when they are close to crosswalks. If people are in a crosswalk, cars must stop to let them pass. There are rules for bus drivers, too. If bus drivers smoke, drink or make phone calls while driving, they can be fined. Buses that carry too many people are also against the law. Pedestrians will have to walk more safely under the new law. They must cross streets at crosswalks. Also, they shouldn’t climb over the fences (栅栏) along streets. Do you bike to school? It’s not a good idea to carry classmates on the back. You could be fined 50 yuan. And stay in the bike lane (慢车道) when you’re riding. The big roads are for cars and buses. Do you like to ride your uncle’s motorbike? When you put on your helmet (头盔), ask him to put one on, too. People on motorbikes must wear helmets, the new law says. If they don’t, they’ll have to pay 200 yuan. Do you ride in cars often? Don’t forget to put on your seat belt (安全带), even if you’re going for a short taxi ride. It could save your life. If you see a hit-and –run (肇事逃逸), tell the police. They may give you a reward (奖赏). And don’t be afraid to help people to the hospital if they are hurt in an accident. Don’t worry about money. The new law says that doctors must take care of them even if they can’t pay right away. （ ）41. Don’t go across the road when _______.

Why do some people change their names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand , Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual name because he wants to be different. People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or that have special sound. They chose the “new names ” for themselves instead of the names their parents gave them when they were born. Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country. In many countries , a woman changes her family name to her husband’s after she got married. But today, many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband’s. Sometimes, women use their own names in some situations and their husbands’ in other situations. And some use both their own names and their husbands’. ( )46. Hanna changed her name to____________ A.
