(A)
In Britain, some people say they will do anything if a famous person they love asks them to. One in three people in Britain have a new kind of disease---- they love a famous person too much.
Some people love famous stars like Britney Spears, David Beckham or even Tony Blair. It is not just the young; grown-ups have the same problem. One in four people are so interested in their hero that it affects their life.
There are two ways of worshipping famous people. One way is just to follow them or talk about them with friends for fun. The other is a more serious way. People have very strong feelings for them and think they are their friends. People who do so for fun are found to be happier. But those who have strong feelings for a famous person are perhaps to feel more lonely and worried.
"Worshipping famous people is not certainly a bad thing," Dr. John, an expert said. "But like many things, overdoing it may not always be good for you."
56. From what some people say, we know ________
A. they are friends of the famous people
B. famous people can pay them a lot of money
C. they must go to the hospital
D. there is something wrong with their mind
57. What does the word “worshipping” mean in the passage?
A. 听从 B. 跟随 C. 崇拜 D. 讨厌
58. What does the writer think of the two ways of worshipping famous people?
A. The first one is better. B. The second one is better.
C. Both of them are good. D. Neither of them is good.
59. People who have strong feeling for a famous person often feel worried because_____.
A. they cannot become famous themselves
B. they think the famous person may be in trouble
C. they are afraid the famous person may not like them

I’m confused these days. We are taught at home and at school that using violence is the least civilized way to solve problems. For example, last week I thought about hitting my friend for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach. I talked with him instead and we came to an agreement. If two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order to win, is it all right?
When two countries disagree, they often fight a war. Why is using violence not okay at home, at school, or in your country but okay between countries? So many people have been killed because of wars, not only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies. And refugees (难民) exist, too.
A war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger. Adults say they are fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace. But can you really “make peace” by killing so many people? I don’t think bombs can reach people’s hearts and change them. Bombs can’t create love and caring, and that’s what we need in the world. Why do adults use violence so quickly? Why can’t they use their wisdom and talk it over?
Adults might say that things are not that easy. But they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt people, and not to kill. Why don’t they act as what they say?
---A page from a 12-year-old boy, Joshua’s diary.
61. At the beach, Joshua ________.
A. hit his friend B. won a beautiful shell
C. played with a beautiful shell D. came to an agreement with his friend
62. Joshua hates wars between countries because ________.
A. he is afraid of wars B. he doesn’t understand adults
C. wars cause death and refugees D. wars are not the only way to make peace
63. What’s the key to peace in Joshua’s opinion?
A. Love and care for each other. B. Don’t use violence so quickly.
C. Stop using bombs in wars. D. Don’t hurt or kill people in wars.
64. From the reading we can see Joshua wants adults to ________.
A. learn from children B. be children’s models
C. be kind to children D. teach children how to solve problems
65. Which is the best title for the passage? _____________.
A. Adults and Wars B. How to Stop Wars
C. Wars Can’t Make Peace D. Ways of Solving Problems
