Last year saw one two-day storm dump mor e than 30 tons of choking sand/grit on local streets before high winds carried it east to South Korea. Meanwhile, in efforts to reduce the effects of the storms, the Chinese government is reinforcing the Beijing--Tianjin sandstorm source, control program w ith new policies to boostthe efficacy of current tree-planting and' greening~ measures.: The program covers 75counties in Hebei and Shanxi provinces, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous region and Beijingand Tianjin municipalities -- a total area of 458,000 s quare kilometers. Over the next 10years, 205,000 square kilometers of desert and soil-eroded land will be grassed.To date, a total of 2. 28 million hectares of such land have been transformed and 1.4million hectares of woods planted. Just over two million hectares of new grassland andforestry have emerged in the regions covered by the program, resulting in a gradualimprovement in overall ecological conditions.Despite this, it has become harder for the program to be carried out. To reduce ornegate sandstorms in the capital as soon as possible, it is imperative to readjust currentpolicies for desertification control and afforestation under the present program. Thus newpolicies will include permission for individuals to enjoy the same state subsidies forafforestation as official economic entities.Questions (30- 34) Multiple Choice: Choose the best answer among the choices given.

Dear Dr. Lucy: The teacher called me and told me my son has been bullying younger children at school. He seems such a quiet boy but has never had many close friends.

Jody and I were classmates at high school and were attracted to each other from the time we first met at the age of twelve or thirteen. We always hung out together and started dating seriously when we were only fifteen. I was so excited the first time I asked her out! After that, we spent every spare moment together.Everyone... our parents, teachers, friends and so on... predicted that we'd break up one day. We were determined to prove them wrong and were engaged when we were nineteen. The evening I proposed was like something from a romantic novel. I chose my moment a nd asked the magic question: "Jody, darling, will you marry me?" her answer was a few tears of happiness. It seems crazy when I look back on it! Again, everyone was expecting us to break off the engagement, but we never even considered that.A year later, we had a typical, big wedding ceremony and Jody really did look the perfect, beautiful bride in her white gown. We had a great time inLake Taho for our honeymoon and came back and settled down to married life. Jessica, our daughter, was born, according to plan, two years after we were married and that was when our problems began.We were both delighted to be parents, but somehow we just grew further and further apart from each other. We were arguing, the whole time and were both very miserable. Eventually, after four years, we separated and then, divorced. I still see Jessica regularly. I can't say I enjoy living alone, but I haven't yet found another partner. Jody is dating a guy who lives in the same apartment house as her but I don't think their relationship is really serious. I'm really sad about our divorce, hut I guess everyone was right: we were too young when we started going together and, the truth is, we were never really compatible. Questions 40-43. Guided Summary: Fill the blanks with one to two words from Passage 3 to complete the summary.Cliff is telling us his marriage with jody. They were 39 at high school, and 40 to each other. Although all the people around them predicted they would41 one day, they got engaged and 42 , after their daughter was born, they often argued and grew further and further apart.
