We were traveling in New Zealand these days．We arrived here on Wednesday night．On Thursday we crossed the Southern Alps．It took hours．We drove through Arthur’s Pass and then stopped to look at mountains．The top looked a bit like black and white pictures, with their bright white snow and big black rocks．We stayed for the night in Greymouth, where we bought some books．
Yesterday we drove on to see the famous Franz Josef Glacier(冰川)．First we left our things in our hotel and then we set out to walk to the glacier．It took a long, long time to walk over the rocks in the bottom and when we got to the wall of the glacier we were very thirsty．We broke off a tiny bit of ice and tasted it．We were drinking water that was thousands of years old．It was much nicer than the ice from the fridge．
Today we drove to the Fox Glacier．Someone had told Dad about a lake on the way, so we went there first．We had to walk through a dark forest to find Lake Matheson．It was a very cold lake because all its water came from the glacier．
It was too late in the day to reach the Fox Glacier．We stayed in the car park to watch great big greenbrown parrots．I used to consider parrots sweet and lovely, but these birds were not．They were walking all over the cars in the car park, pulling soft parts off with their bills(喙)．They even broke off windscreen wipers(雨刮器)．
Tomorrow we have to get up early because we are flying to the top of Franz Josef in a plane．I am looking forward to that because the top of the glacier is all deep snow．So far we have only seen the front ends of glacier．
54．What did the writer see at Southern Alps?
A．Some snow B．Many books C．Lots of pictures D．Black and white rocks
55．The writer before reaching the Franz Josef Glacier．

Alfred Traeger was an engineer who invented (发明) the pedal (踏板) radio for the Flying Doctor Service．This helped people communicate (交流) with each other all over the ourback (澳大利亚内陆地区)．
Alfred Traeger was born in Dimboola, Australia on 2nd August 1895．When he was twelve years old, Traeger made a telephone receiver．He was always interested in engineering, and his hobby was working with radios．John Flynn asked Traeger to invent a simple radio for the Flying Doctor Service．At the time, many people in the outback could not communicate with a hospital because they were far away from telephone lines．
Traeger’s job was to develop a radio that was both a transmitter and a receiver, meaning it could both send a message and receive a message．The radio had to be small, easy to use and cheap enough for outback people to buy．Traeger carried out experiments and set up a small radio network connected to Alice Springs which is in the outback．
Traeger also had to work out how to produce the power (发电) to run the radio．He developed a machine that was turned by hand, but the radio needed both hands to run it, too．He came up with a simple and cheap way．He used bicycle pedals to produce power, leaving the hand free．Pedal radios were used by the Flying Doctor Service, neighbors and friends who could now communicate socially, and the school of the Air, which brought education to children all over the world．
In 1933, Traeger also invented a keyboard transmitter．On 31 July 1980, Traeger died in Adelaide, Australia．
58．What did 12-year-old Traeger do?
A．He visited the outback B．He bought a new radio
C．He created a telephone receiver D．He made friends with John Flynn
59．Why couldn’t people in the outback communicate with hospital?
A．Their radios couldn’t send messages B．They were unable to use telephones
C．They didn’t know hospitals’ numbers D．Their telephones were often cut off (切断)
60．What can we learn about the pedal radio?
A．It was widely used B．Is saved much power
C．It was invented in 1933 D．It needed both hands to run
61．What is the passage mainly about?
A．What Alfred did in the Flying Doctor Service B．What Alfred did to better pedal radios
C．How pedal radios helped the outback D．How Alfred invented the pedal radio
D
When eight-year-old student Barry writes a story, it is usually about dinosaurs (恐龙) because they’re cool．For 10-year-old Emily, fantasy (奇幻) books are her stories of choice while she has recently written such a story．
These are the kinds of ideas and storytelling skills that Australian writers are hoping to inspire (启发) in students getting on Russ the Story Bus, a traveling library that will make its way around schools in western Sydney and New South Wales for the next six weeks．It is one of a number of programs in the Children’s Festival of Moving Stories that started this week．The bus, which has been painted by artist Shaun Tan, has a library full of children’s books that students can take home．
Traveling with the bus each week will be a writer James Roy, who has written books like Captain Mack and Billy Macks War, said much of his inspiration (灵感) came from what he saw around him．“It’s really easy to think that stories are all about heroes or people who can do great things,” Roy said．“But in fact a lot of the more important stories are kids’ own stories and the things they try hard to deal with every day．I’ve been all over the world talking to kids about writing stories and it doesn’t matter where you go．the same things worry them and the same things excite them．”
This is the third year the Children’s Festival of Moving Stories has been held and the first time that Russ the Story Bus will visit faraway schools．Along with the bus, writer talks will be held at libraries in western Sydney for students．
“The fact that we can visit the schools is good for the children who may come from families where English is a second language and they don’t have many chances to read, “Clare Sawyer, head of children’s programs, said．“We hope the bus can make them think more widely, to think about where stories come from and what stories they can make up for themselves．
62．What is Russ the Story Bus?
A．An artist’s home B．A story about a bus
C．A library on the move D．A newly-painted bus
63．What stories does James Roy think highly of?
A．Stories around children B．Stories easy to read
C．Stories about heroes D．Stories about great things
64．What is new about this year’s Russ the Story Bus?
A．It will have writer talks B．It will have more books
C．It will teach writing skills D．It will reach faraway schools
65．What does the underlined word “them” refer to (指代)?
A．The writers B．The schools C．The students D．The programs
