More than 200 British fans of “Mamma Mia!” are getting married on Greek islands this summer to recreate the wedding scene in their favorite film.

A travel agency offering a special “Mamma Mia! marriage” package is flying couples to Greece for custom-made (定制的) ceremonies with the same country charm as the one featured in the romantic comedy featuring Meryl Streep, Colin Firth and Pierce Brosnan.

Jane and Andreas Palikiras, who run London-based Ionian Weddings, say Greek weddings are a “growth industry” and that they had organised more than 100 such ceremonies this summer.

They told the Sunday Times that many British couples are choosing the islands of Skiathos or Skopelos, both of which featured in the box office hit film, and some are insisting on an Abba soundtrack (唱片) to complete the experience.

Sharon Lawrence, 28, a business travel consultant from Colchester, who got married on Skiathos, said, “As soon as I saw the film I thought ‘this is it’ but I didn’t even know which part of Greece it was in.So I got on the Internet and did some research.”

She wed Kevin, a 33 year-old printer, at the town hall on June 2 followed by a reception for 30 similar to the one in the film, which is an adaptation of the successful West End show.

Mr Palikiras said it was not possible to get married in the exact same hilltop chapel (教堂) on Skopelos used in the film because it is too small and is reserved for member of the Greek Orthodox religion.

He said the film had driven up tourism on the islands featured in the films but admitted locals were “probably getting a bit sick of it”.

He added that bookings rose 60% after DVD of the film was released just before Christmas last year.

56.How many people was mentioned in the film according to the passage?

A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.

57.Why did some couples insist on the record of Abba?

A.Because it was made in Greece.

B.Because it was sung by a couple.

C.Because it was sung by a Greek.

D.Because it appeared in the film “Mamma Mia!”

58.How many couples got married in the film “Mamma Mia!”?

A.20. B.30. C.40. D.60.

59.What does the underlined word “it” refer to in the fifth paragraph?

A.Colchester. B.Mamma Mia. C.Skiathos. D.Greece.

Hi guys! I’m Lucy the Ladybird and while I’m very much of a lady, I’m not actually a bird but a glowing red beetle(甲虫) with decorative black spots.

I’m a friendly little bug, to be honest, and simply like to be close with my pals as long as they handle me very gently.I don’t bite humans but I do sink my teeth into mean beasts like aphids (蚜虫) which, unlike me, are very harmful to all the plants.I milk the aphids just like people do with cows and I milk them dry of all the sap (汁) they have got from your poor plants.I’m a real gardeners’ friend and love helping out around the place by pollinating flowers, tidying up plants’ fallen leaves and helping to turn them into nice rich fertilizer to feed everything both above and below the soil, and naturally, being so attractive to look at, we are perfect living garden decorations.

One thing I can not tolerate is all that poisonous pollution from vehicles, garbage burning and other un-environmentally friendly acts that occur in the cities every single minute of the day and night.Pollution of any kind really chokes me to death, so these days, I only live in clean countryside areas, particularly cool ones where it rains and everything grows fresh and green from spring right through to autumn.In winter, when the weather is too cold for me to bear, then I find a nice place to sleep until the snow has gone and I can come back out to play.

Oh! I almost forgot to tell you that although I am not a bird I do have wings and can fly for short distances.So if you pick me up and let me run up and down your hands and arms, then please don’t frighten me by screaming if I suddenly secede to take off!

64.What threatens Lucy the Ladybird most?

A.Heavy rains. B.Cold weather. C.Air pollution. D.Aphids.

No rows of desks in this classroom, and no teacher lecturing at the front.In fact, that’s something Barrie teacher Liz Collett rarely does.Instead, she’s on the move, talking to students about their work, from the small group sitting on the floor playing games to others nearby figuring out a math problem.

The children in this class do not take a spelling test all year — in fact, the school avoids all pencil-and-paper tests — nor do they get assigned homework.Instead, their teacher gives them immediate feedback(反馈) on their work throughout the day.

Welcome to the school of the 21st century, a place where teachers and students cooperate all the time.Such advanced classrooms are trying things, which some might consider as coddling kids — letting students give a voice-recorded essay instead of a written one or even allowing teens to design their own courses.

Though some people blame schools for dumbing things down (降低教育标准) , others will say such changes are actually based on the newest research on how to attract today’s youth and increase not only their interests, but also their achievements.Many of today’s school are not holding kid’s interests.And if they’re not interested, they’re not learning — and isn’t that the point?

“Students today say they want their education to be useful and valuable, and don’t want it to be simply repeating the facts.That’s the kind of learning that be happening for many kids,” says Penny Milton, a researcher.“What we could argue is that to become good learners, they need to become thinkers.”

Jan Olson, anther researcher, says schools have been operating the same way since the Industrial Revolution.But the digital age is bringing an education revolution.While using technology is a part of it, what’s important for students is being able to use information and understand it, not just remembering it.

Today’s learner needs fewer traditional tests and more “effective” feedback, ongoing discussion with a teacher, which studies have found is the number one factor in improving achievement.

68.The first two paragraphs are used to_______.

A.blame Liz for not being responsible for her work

B.describe what schools are like in the 21st century

C.give an example of a successful school lesson

D.question whether it is right not to assign homework

69.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 means “some people may think it as a way of____”

A.spoiling children B.making children become lazy

C.leading children to make mistakes D.caring about children

70.Jan Olson thinks it important for students to ______.

A.repeat the facts without really thinking

B.learn something related to technology

C.make full use of information

D.use technology to improve their grades

71.Which is the most effective way to help students achieve more?

A.Assigning more homework B.Offering immediate answers.

C.Giving more pencil-and-paper tests. D.Holding more discussions with them.

E

Last month, James Connolly, a junior at the University of Massachusetts, stood in front of a local police station wearing a loose garment as punishment.His crime? He was charged with underage drinking, illegal possession of alcohol and very big noise while holding a party.

This shaming punishment has increased in the US in recent years, mostly decided by local judges for less-serious crimes such as drunk driving and theft.They believe shame is the best small crime punishment.For example, in Tennessee, Judge James McKenzie has made a shoplifter stand outside Wal-Mart with signs that read, “ I’m a thief put here by order of Judge McKenzie.”

Some experts think alternative punishments like community service and fines don’t convey moral condemnation (谴责) of the criminal because they aren’t shameful enough.Shaming punishments are sometimes called Scarlet Letter punishments.The name comes from US author Nathaniel Hawthorne’s 1850 novel, The Scarlet Letter.In this novel, a woman is forced to wear a scarlet ( red) ”A” on her clothes as punishment for her adultery.

However, not everyone agrees.Experts said there is an important difference between the shaming punishments of colonial America and those assigned in states like Tennessee.“Early societies often had a ‘re-acceptance’ ceremony to welcome the offender back into main society, contemporary punishments in America lack this.”

Supporters of shaming punishment argue that public shaming is a good way of expressing community values.Some judges say shamed offenders seldom repeat their crimes.Others aren’t so sure.“There is little evidence to suggest that shaming punishment are successful in preventing people from committing special crimes.And a shamed criminal may face a hard battle to regain reputation in society.So a shaming punishment may force the offender into more crime to support himself.”

72.James Connolly was punished because_______.

A.he wore a loose garment in front of a local police station

B.he drunk too much and caused an accident

C.he broke the law of alcohol consumption and held a noisy party

D.he stole things from a supermarket

73.In early American societies, offenders________.

A.wore a scarlet “A” on their clothes as shaming punishment

B.would never gain respect from others

C.didn’t receive any moral condemnation

D.had the chance of being accepted by the societies again

74.We can infer from the passage that__________.

A.shaming criminals publicly is a good way of expressing community values

B.shaming punishment has a long history in the US

C.shaming punishment can always have good results

D.community service and fines don’t convey moral condemnation of criminals

75.What is the best title of the passages?

A.Doubtful Punishment

B.Successful Punishment

C.The Increasing Punishment in the US

D.The Result of Shaming Punishment in the US
