The Occupy protests(抗议) in Hong Kong are approaching an end. Traffic on Mong Kok’s Argyle Street resumed in the late afternoon after the clearance of the barriers and tents by protesters, who remained largely calm, only resisting the clearance at several points.

Some 3,000 police officers were deployed(部署) in the operation, a much higher number than were used to assist in the clearance of a protest site in Admiralty District on November 18.

The operation in Mong Kok comes a week after the partial clearance of another protest site next to the local government headquarters in Admiralty, bringing an end to the months-long protest movement.

Some 3,000 police officers also stood guard at the former protest site in Admiralty on Tuesday.

Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying expressed on Tuesday his hope that business could resume for shops in the area. He also restated that the protest was an unlawful gathering, and called for the protesters to respect and obey the law.

“The common call of Hong Kong people has finally been answered. Now the protest is coming to an end which is necessary and unavoidable. The public has suffered enough,” Leticia Lee See-yin told the Global Times.

“Many people are living in Mong Kok or operating their businesses in the area. They are all angry at the protest for affecting their business. Two shop owners even shut down their stores because they can no longer afford losses caused by the protest,” said Lee.

It is believed that the successful clearance of the Mong Kok site has proven that the protests are decreasing as they approach an end.

“The authorities met with much less resistance compared to a month ago when protesters reacted violently when police tried to remove barriers in the same area in Mong Kok. Now the public has expressed a stronger desire than ever for the protest to end,” Tang Ka-piu, a lawmaker, told the Global Times.

64. The underlined word “resumed” in the first paragraph most probably means “_______”.

A. came to a stop B. moved faster C. returned to normal   D. piled up

65. It can be learned from the passage that the occupy protests _______.

A. have made the public suffer a lot B. have lasted for two months

A. Police officers didn’t meet with any resistance in the late afternoon clearance.

B. Many more than 3000 police officers took part in the clearance in Admiralty District.

C. The authorities are not capable of dealing with the resistance from the protesters.

D. The occupy protests are announced illegal and harmful for the business.

67. How do the Hong Kong public feel about the occupy protests?

A. Approval. B. Annoyed. C. Scared. D. Desirable.

Tang Zhou and his wife are planning to have their second child, a test-tube baby. His wife had a natural delivery when she was 34 and their first child, a boy, is now 7. The couple are now hoping to have a daughter through a surrogate mother in the US. “My wife couldn’t bear another delivery because of her heart condition and her age. Surrogacy hel ps avoid the risks to older mothers,” Tang said, “Moreover, our second child will be born in the US and become a citizen there. That is not a bad choice.”

The couple spent weeks researching their move, looking for a reliable agency that provides surrogacy services overseas. Surrogacy is still illegal in many countries, including China. “We will be taking much higher risks by relying on a surrogate mother in China because we are not protected by any regulation or law. You pay a lot of money but may meet with many problems,” Tang said. “You might not even get your baby back.”

Tang and his wife are part of an increasing number of Chinese couples who are turning to surrogacy services. Tang also considered surrogacy in Thailand but dropped the idea after recent reports about a baby with Down Syndrome(唐氏综合症) who was delivered through surrogacy and said to have been deserted in Thailand by the biological parents from Australia. Instead, Tang chose the California Surrogacy Center agency as his first option after reading the detailed introduction on its website. Compared with many other agencies that he could contact only via e-mail, the center has a consulting office in Beijing, Tang said.

The center is in San Diego, California, and has satellite offices in Los Angeles and Beijing. According to Liu, the center has been operating for more than eight years, and about 100 surrogate mothers live in California.

72. “A surrogate mother” refers to a mother who _______.

A. acts as a baby-sitter  B. nurses another woman’s baby

C. offers service to a new mother D. gives birth to a baby for another woman

73. Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A. Chinese couples prefer to have a test-tube baby.

B. Couples face no risks in surrogacy services.

C. A sick test-tube baby was deserted in Thailand.

D. Unhealthy test-tube babies can be legally abandoned.
