There is a place on our earth Where hot water and steam come up under the ground. It is on a large island in the Pacific Ocean. The island is North Island in New Zealand.
The planet on which we live is a ball of very hot rock. It is a good thing for us that the outside shell is cold. If it were not, no one could live here.
The earth' s shell has cracks in it in some places. In New Zealand this shell seems to have more cracks than in other places on the earth. There are spots where the ground is so hot that it burns the bottom of your shoes. In some places, hot water shoots into the air from time to time. At other points, you can see steam coming up from pools of hot water. The people who live in these places make use of the heat that comes from inside the earth. Some of them cook in the hot pools. They put food into a basket and place it into the water. Washing clothes is done in much the same way.
Many people bring the hot water from below the earth into their homes. They do this by putting a pipe a hundred feet or more into the ground. In this way they get hot water and steam for cooking and washing, and for heating their homes.

Everybody knows that words can carry messages. People communicate with words. Books, magazines, TV, radio and films all help us to communicate with others. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.
Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you put up your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask a question. You shake your head, and people know you are saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes".
Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?
People can communicate in many ways without words. For example, an artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the sea and many other things.
65. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. It is a most popular way for man to communicate with words.
B. Words are the only way for man to communicate.
C. Using radio is one of the ways for man to communicate.

Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at the Affiliated Middle School to Northeast University took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam papers, he left the room and never came back. A student collected the papers when the exam ended.
"That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of morals(道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is," said the school' s headmaster.
The school says no cheating happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. "I was happy and excited during the exam because I felt my teachers now trusted me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.
Other students around China have different views on the benefits of no-teacher exams.
"Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators(监考人). But I think it is too early not to use them in exams. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And students will not be able to ask for help if they get into trouble," said Hua Sha.
"I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me stressed, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.
"Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But schools must ask themselves a few questions before stopping using them. Are students honest enough? Is the exam very important? Will students know what to do if something unusual happens?" said Li Wu.
69. The Affiliated Middle School to Northeast Normal University held a no-teacher exam to___.
A. help all of the students pass the exam
B. let the teachers have a good rest
C. make the students honest D. teach the students in a better way
70. What does Hua Sha think about no-teacher exams?
A. Schools must have them to show that they trust their students a lot.
B. If there are no invigilators, the students will certainly get into trouble.
C. Exams without invigilators will never be held since students are not honest.
D. It's a good idea to have no-teacher exams but some changes must be made first.
71. What is the best thing to do according to Shangguan Yuan?
A. To use invigilators in exams. B. To have no-teacher exams.
C. Asking teachers to help students in exams.
D. Having no exams.
72. What is the best title for the passage?
A. No Exams B. Invigilators or Not
C. Invigilators in Exams D. When to Use Invigilators
D
The Internet has recently not had a great effect on the school performance of China's youth, according to a survey(调查）published. Nor has it affected the time children spend with their families.
