It’s an interesting and exciting new improvement in today’s quali ty of the air we breathe and save our natural resources.The quality of our air is affected by many different things. But one of the largest sources of air pollution is the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and gas which are used to power a car’s eng ine. The EPA has set national standards to help control the level of harmful pollutants sent off into the air, and the automobile industry has acted by producing a hybrid car that uses less gas and therefore causes less pollution.A hybrid car is a combination of a regular car that runs on gas and an electric car that is battery powered. Some people tend to think that since the hybrid car is partly electric, you have to plug it in to charge it. But that’s not how it works. Through the energy that is prod uced when the car’s brakes are used. This is referred to as “regenerative braking（再生制动）,” because it generates electricity.Although the hybrid car still runs on gas most of the time, this help it use less gas than a regular car. When a driver stops at a traffic light, the engine automatically shuts off to save fuel. Then, as soon as the driver puts the car in gear（处于正常工作状态）and touches the gas pedal, the engine starts back up.Have you ever ridden in a car with someone who ran out of gas? That probably wouldn’t happen if you were riding in a hybrid car. It flashed a warning reads: “ YOU ARE NOW OUT OF GAS!” Then the electric power supply energy in to let the driver travel a few more miles to a gas station.56．According to the passage, the underlined word “hybrid” （in Paragraph 1）refers to _____.A．a high-tech discovery B．energy-saving C．a new invention D．a new kind for the combination of two things 57．“Regenerative braking” is an important process of the hybrid car because____________.A．it allows the car to come to a quick stop B．it makes the car ride smootherC．it generates energy to charge the electric motor D．it can control the speed of the car58．The EPA is important to our environment because __________.A．they designed hybrid cars B．they forbade the burning of fossil fuelsC．they set important rules that help control pollution D．their main purpose is to produce non-polluting cars 59．Which of the following is the reason for developing hybrid cars?A．They use less gas than regular cars. B．They’re safer to drive than most cars.C．They’re more modern than other cars.D．They cost less than regular cars.B．篇Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types. Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion （拥挤）. One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system. When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable （可伸缩的）arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer （蜂鸣器）that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.60．One significant improvement in the future car will probably be________.A．its power source B．its driving system C．its monitoring system D．its seating capacity61．What is the author's main concern?A．How to render automobiles pollution-free. B．How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C．How to solve the problem of traffic jams. D．How to develop an automated subway system.62．What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?A．A rail. B．An engine.C．A retractable arm. D．A computer controller.63．In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is _______.A．keep in the right lane B．wait to arrive at his destinationC．keep in constant touch with the computer center D．inform the system of his destination by phone64．What is the author's attitude toward the future of autos?A．Enthusiastic.B．Pessimistic. C．Optimistic.D．Cautious.C篇Chinese basketball players have never been so close to the NBA before but questions remain about how they will adjust to life in the NBA if they go. Wang Zhizhi, the 2.16-metre center for the Bayi Rockets who was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks two years ago, has finally received permission from authorities to travel to Dallas to play for the rest of the NBA season after he finishes playing in the Chinese Basketball Association’s finals on March 25th.If he has no problems with his visa（签证）,Wang will be the NBA’s first Asian player. Wang was chosen by the Mavericks in the second round of the 1999 draft but the Rockets, an army-run club, refused to let him go. After negotiations（谈判）between the Rockets and NBA representatives（代表）,the decision was made to allow Wang the chance to try his hand at American basketball, but only for a period of short time. He has to be back to play in the Ninth National Games in November in Guangzhou.Another center who has attracted attention from the NBA is Yao Ming, the 2.25-meter star who has led to the Shanghai Sharks into the finals fight with the Rockets this year. The 20-year-old’s NBA dreams might be harder to realize. Yao is the center of the Sharks and the club’s manager Bei Genyuan has said that he would allow Yao to go only at a proper time, for a proper team and under proper conditions. Yao hasn’t been chosen yet and it is unlikely that h e will be any time soon. People in the Shark’s front office earlier told members of the press that “it is not proper for Yao to attend the draft this year” b ecausehe has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National Games.Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last, analysts on both sides of the Pacific have said the NBA road will be a long one for both of them.Besides needing to work on their upper body strength, Wang and Yao will also have to adapt（适应）to the speed, techniques and above all, culture of the NBA．65．Yao Ming has attracted attention from NBA because ____.A．he is 2.25 metres tall, who is the tallest basketball player in ChinaB．he is the center of the Shanghai Sharks and has led Sharks into the final fight with the RocketsC．he is regarded as the best basketball player in China D．he is thought highly of in the international world 66．Yao Ming can play for NBA if ____.A．there is no problem with his visa B．NBA agrees to supply favorable conditions for himC．time and conditions are proper D．NBA can pay a large sum of money for Sharks67．NBA chose Wang Zhizhi so that _____.A．it can show NBA need talents B．Wang Zhizhi can have a bright futureC．its whole level will be improved D．it can make Wang Zhizhi world-famous68．When Wang Zhizhi plays in NBA, he will have to adapt to many things of NBA except.A．rules of basketball B．the speed C．culture D．techniquesPa ssage 1Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.1 Make a study time and have it at the same time every day.This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.Allow them to study in blocks of time，such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. 2 Ideal (理想的) study time is after dinner or right after school before dinner.Never allow your children to study in front of te levision，as that will encourage passive activity. 3 You’ll a lso need to help your kids find the right place to study.After you’ve set up a good study time for little learners，set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.4 Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.5 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for t hem with the answers to any questions.The input you give your children duri ng study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.A.Pick a place where your children can study properly.B.Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.C.Finally，spend time with your kids when they’re studying.D.Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement，too.E.Instead，use TV as a treat or a reward when the homework is completed.F.Try to stop this bad habit by offering some sort of reward.G.One of the best ways to form good study h abits for your kids is to design a schedule that they keep to.Passage 2The seven Cs of a good letterWhat is the secret of writing a good letter?

But there were very few machines. Most of the work was done by the farm family. Sometimes more workmen were needed in busy seasons. Work done by horses took up 79 percent; by men, 15 percent; and machine work only took up 6 percent.Today all that has changed. On many modern farms machines now will do 96 percent of the work, while man does 3 percent. As for horses, they do 1 percent of the whole work. The children go to school by bus every morning, the parents work on the farm or in the house and other people’s help is hardly needed. Their work has been replaced (取代) by a whole army of farm machines.56. Today on an American farm machines do ________ times more workthan in the past.A. 17B. 16C. 15D. 1457.

Five.BEveryone talks about the “five” senses of man. And it is true that we get our information (信息) about the outside from our sense of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. Researchers tell us that the sense of sight –our visual sense –gives us up to 80% of what we know about the world outside our bodies; while the other senses, the auditory (hearing), the olfactory (smell), the tactile (touch), and the gustatory (taste) bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening. But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without, though they are little noticed. These are the senses of balance (平衡), without which we would act like a drunk after a heavy drink, and the kinesthetic sense（动觉）, whichgives us our ideas about our own motion (运动).61. Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Five Senses of Man.B. The Senses of Man.C. Senses and Information.D. Important Senses.62. The senses of hearing, smell, touch and taste supply us with ________.A. about half of our information about the worldB. about 20% of our information about the worldC. about 80% of our information about the worldD. all the needed our information about the world63. The other senses besides the “five” senses of man that the passagementions (提到) are ________.A. the tactile and the gustatory sensesB. the senses of balance and touchC. the senses of kinesthesia and balanceD. the olfactory and the auditory senses64. According to the passage, one misses most about the world when one________.A. is blindB. is deafC. has no sense of taste and touchD. has no sense of balance and motionCI lived in a big city. It’s noisy and dirty and I got very tried. At the weekends I like to leave the city and get some fresh air and a good rest. A few weekends ago I decided to see my parents. I was really looking forward to it.My parents live a long way away. I went to see them with James, a friend, and we drove down on Friday night. In the middle of the trip it began to rain. The roads became very wet and it was difficult to drive. We arrived home just after midnight, feeling tired. The next morning it was still raining. James took his car to the local garage which was very good.In the afternoon the weather became better. We wanted to go for a drive. My parents lent us their car. That was no good.

Among these, video conferencing stands out as a revolutionary technological development that has greatly transformed how people interact and communicate.Video conferencing allows geographically distant individuals to engage in real-time conversations and collaborations, bridging the physical gap between them.

John was thrilled; this could be his chance to live out his dreams.The next morning, John packed his bags with essentials like food, water, and a compass, and set off on his journey. The trail was tough and the weather was 3, but he didn’t let these challenges deter him. After days of walking, he finally reached the location marked on the map. To his surprise, the valley was even more beautiful than he had imagined.

”After hearing the loud noise，the whole family ran outside. My son shouted：“Dad! Dad，Holly crashed your truck。
