30、ce Flight Programme Passage twoGreenspace fadilities are contributing to an important degree to the quality of city environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject to start with the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted ,althou

31、gh more as a self-evident statement than on the base of a closely-reasoned scientific proof.Recognizing the importance of greenspace in the urban environment is a first step on the right way.This does not mean, however, that sufficient details are known about the function of green space in towns and

32、 about the way in which the inhabitant are using these spaces.As to this subject I shall ,within the scope of this lecture ,enter into one aspect only ,namely the recreative function of green space facilities .The theoretical separation of living ,traffic and recreative which for many years , has be

33、en used in town-and-country planning ,has in my opinion resulted in disproportionate attention for forms of recreative far from home .However, there was relatively little attention for improvement possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home.We have come to the conclusion that is not right ,

34、 because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working , is used for activities at and around home.So it is obvious that recreative in the open air has to begin at the street-door of the house .The urban environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible ,

35、and the design of these has to be such that more obligatory activities can also have a recreative aspect .The very best standard of living is nothing if it is possible to take a pleasant walk in the district , if the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets , because the risks of traffic ar

36、e too great , if during shopping you can nowhere find a spot for enjoying for a moment the nice weather ,in short ,if you only feel yourself at home after the street-door of your house is closed after you . 46.The importance of the greenspace in the city environment _.A.has been recognizedB.is paid

37、little attention to C.is accepted on the basis of scientific proof D.is still unknown47.For many years town and country planning has _.A.brought living area and places of environment close togetherB.put separated recreation possibilities in the neighborhoodC.improved recreational possibilities in th

38、e neighborhoodD.enabled people to reach the best standard of living48The word recreation” in the passage probably means_A. activities done for pleasure or enjoymentB. doing something again in a creative wayC. dong something important after workD. required activities done after work49.According to th

39、e author ,greenspace should be designed_A. to reduce the number of recreational activitiesB to attract more and more peopleC for people to do recreational activities at the street door or the house D for people to conduct more activities in the neighborhood of the home 50.The main idea of this passa

40、ge is that_A.attention must be paid to the improvement of recreationB,greenspace facilities is providing more recreational activities C,the city environment is providing more recreational acticitiesD,we should try our best to raise our living standard Passage Three Thousands of years before Columbus

41、 came to the New World,the American Indians entered North America by crossing a narrow stip of land that cnce connected Alasks and Siberia.The migrants entered a new world in which there were no people at all.But there were many animals to hunt,and there were forests there nuts,roots,and berries col

42、d be gathered. When the Europeans came to the New World ,the Indians,at first ,taught the settlers how to plant corn,bake fish,make canoes,and smoke tobacco .In return the whites intoroduced horses ,guns,gun-power ,alcohol.But at last ,there were struggles for land, and the struggles could have only

43、 one result-war.When the of land called reservations.Now,some of them irritated their tribal life,some wish to modernize the reservations.Indians have chosen-a future in modern technologv and education, or the reviva of ancient tradition and treaties. 51.The lndians entered North America_ A.with Col

47、ddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs, coupled with the aging of the baby-boom generation, a longer life span means that the nations elderly population is bound to expand significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, u

48、p from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses profound questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. “In addition to the doctors, were going to need more sociologists, biologists, urban pla

49、nners and specialized lawyers,” says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern Californias (USC) School of Gerontology Lawyers can specialize in “elder law,” which covers everything from trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination.

50、s in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. “Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print money,” one professor says.Margarite Santos

51、 is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was “really bored with bacteria.” So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she lied it.
