问题 People of Burlington are being disturbed by the sound of bells. Four students from Burlington College of Higher Education are in the bell tower of the【B1】and have made up their minds to  【B2】the bells nonstop for two weeks as a protest (抗议) against heavy trucks which run【B3】 through the narrow High Street.
   "They not only make it【B4】to sleep at night, but they are 【B5】damage to our houses and shops of historical【B6】," said John Norris, one of the protesters. " 【B7】we must have these noisy trucks on the roads," said Jean Lacey, a biology student, "why don’t they build a new road that goes【B8】the town? Burlington isn’t much more than a 【B9】village. Its streets were never【B10】 for heavy traffic." Harry Fields also studying【B11】said they wanted to make as much【B12】 as possible to force the 【B13】to realize what everybody was having to 【B14】. "Most of them don’t  【B15】here anyway," he said, "they come in for meetings and that, and the Town Hall is soundproof (隔音), 【B16】they probably don’t 【B17】the noise all that much. It’s high time they realized the 【B18】"
   The fourth student, Liza Vernum, said she thought the public were 【B19】on their side, and even if they weren’t they soon would be. 【B20】asked if they were afraid that the police might come to stop them.
   "Not really," she said, "actually we are proper bell-ringers. I mean we are assistant bell-ringers for the church. There is no law against practising." I left the church with the sound of the bells ringing in my ears.
