Minutes after the last movie ended yesterdayat the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gatheringcoke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As onegroup of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seatsand other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.
The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater.Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled withteary-eyed audience wanting to say good-be to the old building. Theater ownerEd Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie isset in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
Bradford said that large modern theaters inthe city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’slocation(位置) was also areason. “This used tobe the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”
Last week some city officials suggested thecity might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and publicmeeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financialproblems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater islocated.

After years of heated debate, gray wolves werereintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught inCanada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolfpopulation had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in theYellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they weregradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves hadpractically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north intothe deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
Thedisappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elkpopulations — majorfood sources (来源) forthe wolf – grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In theabsence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a largepercentage of the park’ s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’ sbeavers.
As early as 1966,biologists asked thegovernment to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped thatwolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmersopposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animalsor pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years comingup with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers. The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Servicecarefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debatecontinues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,andcoyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made acomeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to helpbiologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the countryas well.
28.What is thetext mainly about?
A.Wildliferesearch in the United States.

A.Damage to localecology. B.A decline in the park’sincome.
C.Preservation ofvegetation. D.An increase in thevariety of animals.

The Intelligent Transportteam at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobilelaboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced byolder drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.
Research shows that giving up driving is oneof the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.
Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastleteam are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hopecould help them to continue driving into later life.
These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systemsand intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many olderpeople, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is importantfor preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and aboutwithout having to rely on others.”
“But we all have to accept that as we getolder our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding anypotentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in theirdriving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really needto.”
Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the olderdriver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key pointsand difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to addressthese problems.
“For example, most of us would expectolder drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found thatin 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likelyto break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefitsof systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.
“We hopethat our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older driversstay safer behind the wheel.”
32.What is thepurpose of the Drivel AB?
A.To explorenewmeans of transport.
B.To design newtypes of cars.
C.To find outolder driver`s problems.
D.To teach peopletraffic rules.
33.Why is drivingimportant for older people according to Phil Blythe?
A.It keeps themindependent.
B.It helps themsave time.
C.It builds uptheir strength.
D.It cures theirmental illnesses.
34.What doresearchers hope to do for older drivers?
A.Improve theirdriving skills.
B.Developdriver-assist technologles.
C.Provide tips onrepairing their cars.
D.Organize regularphysical checkups.
35.What is thebest title for the text?
A.A new ModelElectric Car
