“A very disruptive(制造混乱的) six­year­old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand，”said one teacher. “I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs，”said another. Many people have heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.

Every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their potential, regardless of their parents' wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation，it is a long way to achieve this goal. But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter.

Far too many children are behaving badly at school，even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough，but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behavior of their parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table，and unable to use the lavatory properly.

We are in danger of becoming a nation of families_living_separate_lives_under_one_roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep，has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.

Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children's behavior and sticking to those boundaries when the going gets tough. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources—time—so that children come to school readily and are willing to learn.

Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.

A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”， which use cars as tuning forks(音叉)to play music as they travel.

The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.

Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.

Patent documents for the design describe it as notches(刻痕)“formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody­like tones”.

There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan—one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda.He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土机)before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.

The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph，but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.

“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well，”wrote one Japanese blogger.“Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mph[20 km/h]has a slow­motion effect, making you almost car­sick.”

41.According to the passage，melody roads use________to create different notes.

A.cars  B.grooves

C.spaces between intervals  D.bulldozers

42.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on________.

A.how far the grooves are

B.how big the grooves are

C.the number of the grooves

D.the speed of the car

43.The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean________.

A.fastest  B.possible

C.best  D.suitable

44.In order to hear the music well，you have to________.

A.drive very fast

B.drive slowly

C.open the windows wide

D.keep the windows closed

45.What's the best title of the passage?

A.A New Type of Music

B.Melody Roads in Japan

C.A Musical Road Surface[来源:Zxxk.Com]

D.A New Invention in Japan
