"Your request is out of the question, "the FC said. Robert had difficulty in controlling himself, but he managed somehow. He explained that he wanted the money in order to make more programmes.
"And why do you want to do that? " the FC asked sharply. Again, Robert almost lost his temper(脾气). "Because more and more people are listening to my department's programmes. There's great demand for them, "he answered.
The FC did not seem to believe him. But Robert had a report on the numbers of listeners to all EBC programmes. The FC became less confident(自信). Robert threw the report down on the table and told him to read it.
The FC looked at it in silence. The figures proved that he had been wrong, but he did not want to admit it. "Well, "he finally said, "I may have made a small mistake." Robert noticed the word "may". He got up to leave. But he had the feeling that he should get the money after all.

In Europe, men do not usually wear skirts. But the Scottish national clothing for men is a kind of skirt. It is called a kilt. The Scottish like to be different. They are also proud of their country and its history, and they feel that the kilt is part of that history. That’s why the men still wear kilts at traditional(传统的) dances and on national holidays. They believe they are wearing the same clothes that Scottish men always used to wear.
That’s what they believe. However, kilts are not really so old. Before 1730,Scottish men wore a long shirt and blanket(毯子) around their shoulders. These clothes got in the way when the men started to work in factories. So, in 1730 a factory owner changed the blanket into a skirt:kilt. That’s how the first kilt was made.
Then, in the late 1700s Scottish soldiers in the British Army began to wear kilts. One reason for this was national feelings: The Scottish soldiers wanted to be different from the English soldiers. The British Army probably had a different reason: A Scottish soldier in a kilt was always easy to find! The Scottish soldiers fought very hard and became famous. The kilt was part of the fame , and in the early 1800s men all around Scotland began to wear kilts.
These kilts had colourful stripes(条纹)going up and down and across. In the 1700s and early 1800s,the colour of the stripes had no special meaning. Men sometimes owned kilts in several different colours. But later the colours became important to the Scottish families. By about 1850,most families had special colours for their kilts. For example, men from the Campell family had kilts with green, yellow, and blue stripes. Scottish people often believe that the colours of the kilts are part of their family history. In fact, each family just chose the colour they liked best.
This is not the story you will hear today if you are in Scotland. Most Scottish people still believe that kilts are as old as Scotland and that the colours are as old as the Scottish families. Sometimes feeling are stronger than facts!
41.This text is mainly about________.
A.soldiers’ clothes in Britain B.the history of Scotland
C.a kind of skirt D.Scottish families
42.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.The English soldiers were the first to wear kilts.
B.It was hard then to tell the Scottish soldiers from the English ones except from the clothes.
C.Colours were specially designed in the first kilts.
D.The factory owner made the first kilt from long shirts to make his workers different from others.
43.Scottish soldiers were dressed in kilts partly because of__________.
A.the colours B.the weather C.national feeling D.the design
44.From the passage we know that the colours of the kilts are________.
A. not part of the Scottish family history
B. older than the Scottish family history
C. for the Campbell family only
D. mainly green,yellow and blue
45.From the last paragraph we can infer that_____________.
A. the European people are full of strong feelings
B. there are no stories about kilts in Scotland today
C. the British like to do things on feelings, not on facts
D. the Scottish prefer to keep their tradition rather than believe the fact

Today our class went to Xishan Park to do some cleaning. Early in the morning, we started out by bike. As soon as we got there, we began to work. First we collected the rubbish near the river bank and in the woods. Then we put up notices to tell people not to destroy the beauty of nature. At the same time we kept on telling the visitors the importance of protecting the environment. Having cleaned the whole park, we said goodbye to the workers of the park and went home. Though we were very tired, we felt very happy.
