More than 6000 children were expelled（開除）from US schools last year for bringng guns and bombs to school，the US Department of Education said on May 8．
The department gave a report on the expulsions（開除）as saying handguns accounted for 58 per cent of the 6093 expulsions in 1996—97，against 7 per cent for rifles or shotguns and 35 per cent for other types of firearms．
“The report is a clear sign that our nation’s public schools are cracking down（嚴懲）” on students who bring guns to school，“Education Secretary Richard Riey said in a statement．“We need to be tough-minded（堅強的）about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe．”
In March 1997，an 11-year-old boy and a 13-year-old using hand-guns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro，Arkansas．In October，two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school．Two months later，a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Daducab，Kentucky．
“Most of the expulsions，56 per cent，were from high schools，which have students from about age 13，34 per cent were from junior high schools and 9 per cent were from elementary schools．” The report said．

【小題1】C
【小題2】D
【小題3】A
【小題4】B
【小題5】C
解析1.C 根據for bringng guns and bombs to school可知美國學生可以帶槍支和炸彈，故安全是個問題，選C。
2.D 根據第二段講的We need to be tough-minded（堅強的）about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe可知學校要讓槍支遠離校園，可知現在是沒控制好，故選D。
3.A 主旨大意題，文章主要講的是美國的槍擊事件，選A。
4.B 數據題。根據shot dead four children ，two were killed及 a 14-year-old boy killed three high school可知一共死了9個學生，故選B。
5.C 文章講到學生都持有槍支，很明顯不單是士兵或是警察持有，他們的公民都可持有，選C，文章未說老師沒錢買不起槍，屬無中生有。

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.
Of course, he delivered (分發) more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note — “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”. Then she put the note and the empty bottles into the milk box. The next day, the buttermilk would magically appear.
There was also a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box in the house, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
I am sad that there is no home milk delivery today. Big companies produce cheaper milk, and milk is for sale everywhere. People may not need the milkman anymore.
Recently, I saw an old milk box in the countryside and it brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and put it outside the door. My son’s friends always ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship with his milk.
【小題1】The milkman delivered milk to family _____ in the old days.
| A．by car | B．by bike | C．on foot | D．by truck |
| A．into the bottles | B．into the milk box |
| C．in the kitchen | D．in front of the door |
| A．missed the good old days |
| B．wanted to tell funny stories |
| C．needed it for his milk bottle |
| D．wanted to give it to the milkman |

New York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses working in certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact , they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths. There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole United States.
The cost of shoing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.
A blacksmith’s job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit it to the horse’s foot. The blacksmith must bend over all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse’s leg while he works. Clearly, a blacksmith must be very storng. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses---for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.
One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country from Ireland in 1948. He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing because his father did it, and,as the puts it, “It’s a good way to make a living.”
【小題1】According to the reading passage, a blacksmith must be likely a______ man.
| A．clever | B．rich | C．strong | D．lucky |
| A．was interested in horses | B．was needed by the policemen |
| C．drew a picture of the horseshoe | D．had a make a living |
| A．fit it on the horse’s foot |
| B．use it for two or three hours |
| C．make the from of a horseshoe from a piece of metal |
| D．draw a picture of the shoe |
| A．Policemen on Horseback | B．Blacksmiths and Horseshoeing |
| C．James Corbin, a Blacksmith | D．Horseshoeing is a Good Way to Make a Living |
| A．Only a few large American cities have some policemen on horseback. |
| B．New York is the only city in America to have some policemen on horseback. |
| C．Policemen on horseback enjoy travelling around the United States. |
| D．Policemen on horseback are less expensive than those in cars. |
