When you’re returning to Australia, be careful that you don’t bring in pests and diseases. Some items you might bring back from overseas can be pests and diseases that Australia doesn’t have. When you return, declare(申报)all food, meat, fruits, plants, seeds, wooden souvenirs, animal or plant materials.
Australia has strict quarantine(检疫)laws and tough on-the-spot fines. Every piece of luggage is now screened or X-rayed. If you fail to declare any quarantine items, or if you make a false declaration, you will get caught. In addition to on-the-spot fines, you could be accused and fined more than $$60, 000 and you may risk 10 years in prison. All international mail is also screened.
Some products may require treatment to make them safe. Items that are restricted because of the risk of pests and diseases will be seized and destroyed by the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service(AQIS).
In many cases, the goods you declare will be returned to you after inspection. However, any item that presents a quarantine risk will be withheld(扣留). You will be given a range of options for each item depending on the quarantine risk: ·
·Treating the item to make it safe*;
·Holding the item until an import permit is presented*; ·
·Re-exporting the item*；·
·Destroying the item.
Those treatments with the sign “*” are subject to fees.
Further information:

60.解析：选D。细节理解题。第一段最后说明了要申报的内容：food, meat, fruits, plants, seeds, wooden souvenirs, animal or plant materials。A、B、C三项包含在其中，D项不在其中。
61.解析：选A。细节理解题。从第二段的“In addition to on-the-spot fines, . . . in prison. ”知A项正确。
62.解析：选B。推理判断题。文章讲的是返回澳大利亚时应该注意的事项，应该向海关申报所携带的物品。故该文章可能出现在旅游指南上。
63.解析：选C。推理判断题。根据Further information的前一句“Those treatments with the sign are subject to fees. ”可以推断不是所有的措施都是免费的。故选C。
