For years and years people have .been. saying that the railways are dead. "We can dowithout railways"people say, as. if motorcarsand planes made the railways unnecessary.We all keep hearing that trains are slow, thatthey lose money, that they're dying. Btit thisis far from the truth. In these days of expen-sive oil, the railways have become highlycompetitive with motorcars and planes. If youwant to carry people or goods from place toplace, they're cheaper than planes.
And they have much in common withplanes. A plane goes in a strange line and sodoes a railway. What is more, it takes youfrom the heart of a city into the heart of an-other. It doesn't leave you as a plane does,miles and miles from the city center. Itdoesn't hold you up as a car does, in endlesstraffic jams. And a single train can carrygoods which no plane or motorcar could everdo.Far from being dead, the railways are verymuch alive. Modern railway lines give you asmooth , untroubled journey. Where else canyou eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe andenjoy the scene while you are traveling atspeed at the same time? And we are only atthe beginning. For we have just entered theage of super-fast trains, traveling at 150 milesan hour and more. Soon we will be wonderingwhy. we spent so much on motorways we can'tuse because we have not enough money tobuy the oil and planes we can't fly in for thesame reason.
49. Some peopte think the railways are deadfor many reasons except that____.
A. planes and motorcars have taken theplace of trains
B. oil is expensive today
C. trains are slow
D. railways lose money
50. The writer's idea seems to be that____.

D. trains are as good as motorcars andplanes
51. According to the writer, which of thefollowing is NOT true?
A. It is cheaper to travel by train than byplane.
B. The railway station is usually at thecenter of a city.
C. When you get off the plane you willfind yourself right in the city center.

It was a day to celebrate if your familyhad put most of its money in abank. You willget more money back because of a recent risein interest rates(利率) .
On October 29, for the first time in nineyears, the People's Bank of China. (PBOC)raised interest rates. The rate for one-yearRMB deposits (存款) was increased from 198per cent to 2.25 per cent. And the rate forone-year RMB loans(贷款) went up from 5.31per cent to 5.58 per cent. Longer term ratessaw higher-increases.
So what are interest rates? Banks offersome money to encourage people to keep, theirsavings in a savings account, and ask moremoney in return if you borrow-money, fromthem. The percentages of the extra money arethe interest rates.
If your parents have borrowed money from banks to pay for houses or cars the inter-est rates rise was not good news.
An increase in the interest rate on a loanmeans the borrower will need to repay more tothe bank. For example, a person whe bor-rowed 10,000 yuan from the bank had to re-turn 10.531 yuan before the interest rises.Butafter the interest rates were increased, he hasto pay extra 27 yuan per year.
The rise came, following a great demandfor the cooling of the over-heating Chinese e-conomy. For several years, pushed by a hugeinvestment and construction projects,thecountry has had the fastest economic growthin the world. But this can be damaging just asit is when a person grows too fast and can nolonger fit their clothes. It is hoped that with ahigher interest rate people will act more cau-tiously and take less risks when borrowingmoney.
"The rate rise will help the economy tocool down. It will reduce investment in unnec-essary industrial and construction projects,"said Su Ning, deputy governor(副行长) of thePBOC.
52. If we deposit 1000 yuan in the bank forone year after October 29, how much canwe get? (The tax rate on interest rate is20%.)
A. 2,16yuan. B. 13.68 yuan.
C. 15.84 yuan. D. 18 yuan.
53. What is the purpose of the rise in theinterest rates?
A.To attract greater investment.
B. To make people earn more money.
C. To carry out more construction projects.
D. To cool down the over-heating Chineseeconomy.
54. By saying "this can be damaging just as itis when a person grows too fast and canno longer fit their clothes" the writer
A. warns that if the economy grows toorapidly, it will cause trouble
B. warns us that industry will suffer a loss
C. advises us to buy bigger clothes whenwe grow older
D. advises us not to grow too fast to avoiddamage
55.Which of the following is NOT a result ofthe increase in the interest rate on aloan?
A. People will make wiser investments.
B.People will need to repay more to thebank.
C. People will borrow more money toinvest in their business.
D. People will be careful of taking moneyfrom banks to expand their business.

For years and years people have .been. saying that the railways are dead. "We can dowithout railways"people say, as. if motorcarsand planes made the railways unnecessary.We all keep hearing that trains are slow, thatthey lose money, that they're dying. Btit thisis far from the truth. In these days of expen-sive oil, the railways have become highlycompetitive with motorcars and planes. If youwant to carry people or goods from place toplace, they're cheaper than planes.
And they have much in common withplanes. A plane goes in a strange line and sodoes a railway. What is more, it takes youfrom the heart of a city into the heart of an-other. It doesn't leave you as a plane does,miles and miles from the city center. Itdoesn't hold you up as a car does, in endlesstraffic jams. And a single train can carrygoods which no plane or motorcar could everdo.Far from being dead, the railways are verymuch alive. Modern railway lines give you asmooth , untroubled journey. Where else canyou eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe andenjoy the scene while you are traveling atspeed at the same time? And we are only atthe beginning. For we have just entered theage of super-fast trains, traveling at 150 milesan hour and more. Soon we will be wonderingwhy. we spent so much on motorways we can'tuse because we have not enough money tobuy the oil and planes we can't fly in for thesame reason.

It was a day to celebrate if your familyhad put most of its money in abank. You willget more money back because of a recent risein interest rates(利率) .
On October 29, for the first time in nineyears, the People's Bank of China. (PBOC)raised interest rates. The rate for one-yearRMB deposits (存款) was increased from 198per cent to 2.25 per cent. And the rate forone-year RMB loans(贷款) went up from 5.31per cent to 5.58 per cent. Longer term ratessaw higher-increases.
So what are interest rates? Banks offersome money to encourage people to keep, theirsavings in a savings account, and ask moremoney in return if you borrow-money, fromthem. The percentages of the extra money arethe interest rates.
If your parents have borrowed money from banks to pay for houses or cars the inter-est rates rise was not good news.
An increase in the interest rate on a loanmeans the borrower will need to repay more tothe bank. For example, a person whe bor-rowed 10,000 yuan from the bank had to re-turn 10.531 yuan before the interest rises.Butafter the interest rates were increased, he hasto pay extra 27 yuan per year.
The rise came, following a great demandfor the cooling of the over-heating Chinese e-conomy. For several years, pushed by a hugeinvestment and construction projects,thecountry has had the fastest economic growthin the world. But this can be damaging just asit is when a person grows too fast and can nolonger fit their clothes. It is hoped that with ahigher interest rate people will act more cau-tiously and take less risks when borrowingmoney.
"The rate rise will help the economy tocool down. It will reduce investment in unnec-essary industrial and construction projects,"said Su Ning, deputy governor(副行长) of thePBOC.
52. If we deposit 1000 yuan in the bank forone year after October 29, how much canwe get? (The tax rate on interest rate is20%.)
A. 2,16yuan. B. 13.68 yuan.
C. 15.84 yuan. D. 18 yuan.
53. What is the purpose of the rise in theinterest rates?
A.To attract greater investment.
B. To make people earn more money.
C. To carry out more construction projects.
D. To cool down the over-heating Chineseeconomy.
54. By saying "this can be damaging just as itis when a person grows too fast and canno longer fit their clothes" the writer
A. warns that if the economy grows toorapidly, it will cause trouble
B. warns us that industry will suffer a loss
C. advises us to buy bigger clothes whenwe grow older
D. advises us not to grow too fast to avoiddamage
