An increase in free parks in Shanghai might be pleasant, but they bring with them their own problems. There are already 122 free parks for citizens to enjoy. But visitors are often hassled by beggars and fortune-tellers, and put off by the smell of urine left behind by someone using the grass as a toilet.

Law and order in free parks are also worrying the city's park operators. They couldn't take any mandatory measures on those who do indecent things in parks except to try to persuade them to stop according to local regulations on park operations, which were laid out many years ago and many parts are not in line with the need for maintenance of the increasing number of free parks. Patrols could be introduced to help park managers.

On April 1,2005, Shanghai opened 23 new free parks, bringing the total number of such parks to 122.

A lack of cash has also hindered park operations. The local government has allowed for subsidies to cover the cost of not charging for tickets, but attendance is often more than expected, adding to maintenance and security costs.

Many parks manage to be self-supporting by running businesses such as convenient stores and cafeterias. Some also rent out areas to companies who want to do outdoor promotions. But the bottom line is that parks should be comfortable places for visitors and should not be turned into outdoor markets.

As well as not charging for tickets, parks are cutting back on staff, having a few staff members for daily operations. Most construction and maintenance jobs are commissioned to enterprises through public bidding so as to evaluate costs in a transparent and economical way.

So far, more than 12,000 citizens are working as volunteers to help with park operations in Shanghai.

Shanghai has spent more than 3 per cent of its GDP on environmental protection in recent years. Its heavy expenditure in landscaping also paid off as it won the "National Garden City" award last year.

Shanghai's goal is to increase its green area to 12 square metres per capita. It now has more than 17 million permanent residents.

Which of the following is NOT a problem in the free parks in Shanghai?

A．Visitors are often entangled by the beggars and fortune-tellers.

B．Regulations on park operations are no longer adaptable.

C．Parks don't have enough money for the operations.

D．There are too many toilets in the free parks.

Which of the following is correct?

A．The thirty-foot-long pipe was not a straight one.

B．There were no big bends in the solid stone.

C．Solid stone had to be put into the pipe.

D．In one place the workmen had to put big bends into some new wiring.

Valentine's Day is on 14, February each year. It is a day for lovers, and one of the loveliest holidays in the United States. At present, it is quite popular all over the world.

The origin of the Valentine's Day is not well known for most of people. Even very few Americans know the story of Valentine's Day. However, there are a lot of stories about it. One English story tells that birds select their mates on February 14. Another story says that more than 2, 000 yearn ago the ancient Romans celebrated a holiday for lovers. As part of the celebration, girls wrote their names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container. Boys reached their hands into the container and pulled one out. The girl whose name was written on the paper became his lover or sweet heart for a year. Then came a Roman priest Valentine, who secretly married many young lovers against the Roman king's order. At that time, the Roman Emperor wanted all the young men to fight for him. So he made the law that didn't permit young men to get married. As a priest, Valentine helped young people by giving wedding ceremony for them. The Roman Emperor got angry and ordered the killing of Valentine on February 14, 269 A.D. This story is generally considered to be the most impossible, for the priest's name Valentine.

It is very popular to send cards decorated with hearts and flowers to express love. Today many Americans like to exchange humorous cards with husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, relatives, and even special friends. Some enjoy the joke of sending "Guess Who" cards to a person he or she secretly admires. Sometimes they put their love message in a heart-shaped box of chocolates, or a bunch of flowers tied with red ribbons (丝带). Candy, perfume, jewelry or a picture with a heart and Cupid (the Roman God of love) armed with bow and arrow are also sent to express love. Many couples arrange romantic dinners by candle light for this occasion. Universities also hold a Sweethearts’ Ball for the young students to celebrate the Valentine's Day.
