Meanwhile, construction of environment facilities including sewage (污水) and rubbish treatment plants will be completed soon.According to Mao Dacheng, chief of Altay Prefecture where Kanas is located, the government has invested 1 billion yuan on environment facilities. “Education for tourist is also important,” he said. An education center is being created to provide information on how to protect the environment in Kanas. But he said that the government would not interfere with the lives of traditional residents in Kanas.It is expected that Kanas will receive more than 500,000 tourists this year, 4,000 more than last year.“However, there are still few overseas visitors,” he said. Statistics showed that only two percent of the total number of tourists are foreigners. “This is partly because the transportation facilities are still not convenient enough,” Mao said. Currently, there is only one highway connecting Kanas,“Upon request from tourists, construction of an airport will start this month and will be completed by the end of next year,” the official said.A railway line connecting Kuitun and Altay will also be open to traffic in 2008 to make it possible travel to Kanas by train, which will probably bring in more tourists.Title: Growing tourist 71._ - Kanas72._Altay Prefecture, Northwest Chinas Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous RegionFeaturesAttractive 73._, and “lake monster”74._75._ hotels and restaurants from the scenic sitesconstructing environment 76._ including sewage and rubbish treatment plants creating an education center not interfering with the lives of traditional residents 77._to protect the environment to develop tourism78._conditionsThe number of tourists is increasing, but foreign visitors are fewReason Inconvenient 79._Solution to 80._ an airportto open a railway line connecting Kuitun and Altay三Carla walked 45 minutes a day, every day, as part of her exercise regime. After two years of walking she began to notice her right foot hurt and she was always adjusting her laces (带子). A visit to the family doctor resulted in her going to the last place she thought hed send her: a shoe store. Her solution was simple: new sneakers, fitted by a professional. Many people suffer for years without realizing their pain is caused by improperly fitted shoes and thats why its important consumers be aware of how to choose footwear. Here are some tips to keep your feet happy and pain free. Have your feet measured before you make a shoe purchase. Make sure you measure both feet, since most of us have one foot larger than the other. Always purchase shoes to fit the largest foot. Try both shoes on and walk in them before you buy. Sizes vary, as do styles and shoe shapes. A size 8 in one brand might fit perfectly, while a 7- and-half in another is too loose in the heel. Your feet swell during the day, so make sure you only shop for shoes in the evening. There should be a three-eighths to 5 inch space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The ball of your foot should fit comfortably into the widest part of the shoe. Before buying shoes of any kind ensure that the heel fits well and there is no slippage. Look for shoes that are similar in shape to your feet. Some brands and styles are narrower than others, or have a narrow heel. High heels can cause not only foot pain, but posture problems and back pain, as well. For these reasons women should avoid high heels. If you must wear them, never go over 2- and-a-half inches in heel height. Always buy shoes that fit now. Shoes do not stretch and there is no such thing as “breaking them in”. Wear the same type of socks or nylons you will be wearing with the shoe. If youre purchasing sneakers, wear athletic socks. For high heels, wear nylons during the fitting session.Make sure the shoes (71) _ your feetsituationadviceNeither this shoe (72) _ that one fits you.Make sure you measure both feet and purchase shoes to fit the (73) _ foot.

Have you ever found chewing gum on the floor of your classroom or around the campus? How many times have you seen broken windows in the classroom and school buildings? This is vandalism, the destruction or damaging of public property for no obvious reason.Vandalism in schools is becoming a growing problem, and it is costing us more than money. It is expensive to repair the desks, clear them of chewing gum and repair school furniture. Moreover, it costs us our sense of self-respect and feeling of pride in our school. Many students see this damage and lose some pride in their school.How, then, can we prevent vandalism in schools? First of all, we need to make students realize the importance of taking care of public property. School property should be treated with care so that it can be used by all the students. Therefore, damaging school property means damaging the enjoyment of other students. If we can explain this to people, then they will be less likely to damage school property when they know that it will only hurt themselves.Secondly, we should learn to obey school rules and regulations. These rules and regulations are there to look after both the students and the schools. Whenever we see any acts of vandalism, we need to remind the people of the rules and try to prevent these acts from happening. If it is serious vandalism, we need to report it to the teacher.Thirdly, anyone who vandalizes school property should receive some kind of punishment. For example, if someone has torn a page from a library book, he or she would have to carefully tape the page back into the book. If someone writes or draws on a desk, he or she should stay behind school and clean the desks in the classroom. Such punishment is not harsh, but can make them know their misbehavior.Vandalism costs schools money that could be better spent educating students, and it harms students pride in their school as well. If we educate people about vandalism and work to prevent it from happening , then we will begin to see cleaner schools and happier students.Vandalism, a growing problem in schoolsThe meaning of vandalismIt means the public property in schools is 7 1 or damaged.Some ugly 72 you can see in schools because of vandalism1.with words and drawings scratched on the desks2.with chewing gum found here and there3.with windows broken in many buildingsThe 73 of vandalism1.becoming a growing social problem2.being 74 to repair the desks and so on3. not feeling 75 of schoolsThe 76 to the problem1.to make students 77 of the importance of taking care of public property2.to have school rules and regulations 783.to make students 79 for their bad behaviorConclusionCleaner schools and happier students will appear if people receive more 80 _and work together to prevent vandalism from happening.五Educating girls quite possibly harvests a higher rate of return than any other investment available in the developing world. Women's education may be an unusual field for economists(经济学家), but increasing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And economics, with its focus on incentives(鼓励), provides an explanation for why so many girls are deprived of(剥夺)an education.Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school the prophecy (预言) becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious circle (恶性循环) of neglect.An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle.Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant impact on health practices, including family planning.Topic: The significance of female (71) _ in developing countriesViewpointEducating girls is more beneficial than any other (72) _.FamiliesFrom low-income familiesFrom educated mothers' familiesAttitudesGirls are of _(73) value than boys.Development should be for all (74)_.PracticesThere is not (75) _investment in daughters.
