Reading ComprehensionPassage 1If you’ve been joining in chat room conversations, or exchanging e-mails with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.It’s fast: it allows you to talk to six people at once. It’s convenient: you can use three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(=be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “Shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.1. When people are online, they talk by ____-.A. speaking languages other than EnglishB. exchanging e-mails with people they don’t knowC. using technology their elders don’t useD. using an especially short form of English2. According to the passage, the Internet allows many people in the world to _____.A. talk at the same time with one anotherB. discover their friends and relativesC. create a language that is simple and newD. find out things that can make them laugh3. What does the sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanations” mean?A. People should use words to express themselves in a proper way.B. People should know what time it is when they are talking.C. People online have to express themselves in a simple way.D. People should communicate with each other in a funny way.4. If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to you're A/S/L question, it means_____.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is tallB. you are talking to a boy who is 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes.5. Which of the following is a way to save time online?A. Not using capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Not letting dust form on your keyboard.C. Using the “Shift” key when sending e-mails.D. Coming up with ideas as quickly as possible.Passage 2Many doctors are now trained in techniques to lessen tension and stress. Here health professionals reveal their favorite methods.Comfort with food. When diet expert Judith Wurtman is stressed out, she does what a lot of people do this time of year: she reaches for food. But in her case, it’s a healthy rice cake ortwo. “My research suggests that carbohydrates (碳水化合物) raise levels of a brain chemical, which has a calming effect on the entire body,”says the MIT research scientist. “So signs of stress—such as anger, tension, and inability to focus—are eased.”Run from your problems. Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, who popularized aerobics (有氧运动) through his 1968 book by that name, handles his own stress with a daily after-work run. He knows that physical activity reduces anxiety and depression. “Aerobic exercise is the best way to dissipate stress,” says Cooper.Look to the light side. On his way to the hospital where his father was to have surgery, Joel Goodman shared a hotel bus with the anxious relatives of several patients. The driver began telling his stressed-out passengers a few jokes. “Then he did some magic tricks that had my mother and me laughing.” Goodman says. “In that five-minute ride he taught us that humor can lessen our stress.”The surgery was successful, and Goodman was so moved by his experience that he researched laughter’s power. “A good laugh relaxes muscles, reduces blood pressure, restrains stress-related hormones and enhances the immune system (免疫系统),” he says.Go green. Coffee, loaded with hidden sources of caffeine, stimulates (刺激) the nervous system and can make you feel stressed more easily. That’s why Arizona doctor Andrew Weil, author of the best seller Spontaneous Healing, does not take caffeine. “When I want gentle energy, I drink green tea. It contains a caffeine-like element”, Weil says. It also contains compounds that, some studies suggest, have anti-cancer effects.1. The following are ways to free you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. looking at things in a more relaxed wayB. getting a lot of sleep during the dayC. eating some food with carbohydratesD. doing some aerobic exercise2. Eating or drinking the following can be helpful in freeing you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. drink green teaB. eat some breadC. eat some rice cakeD. drink a lot of coffee 3. A good laugh is very helpful EXCEPT to _____.A. reduce blood pressureB. restrain stress-related hormonesC. enhance the immune systemD. take a holiday4. What is the meaning of the word “dissipate” in the part “Run from Your Problems”?A. Lessen.B. Depress.C. Disturb.D. Level.5. Which of the following group of people can have a happier life, according to the passage?A. Those who are continuously eating something.B. Those who are always engaged in working.C. Those who use right methods to reduce tension.D. Those who study medicine or psychology.Passage 3In my opinion, there is only one legitimate(合法的) handgun sport and that is aim practice. It is practiced at objects which are properly monitored and usually quite safe. Only certain handguns are true “sporting weapons”, seen as such by the sport’s lovers.On the other hand, shooting at tin cans and other small objects in one’s backyard is not and should not be considered a serious sport. When uncontrolled, it can be a very dangerous practice.Some opponents(反对者) of handgun control have stated that we are out to stop all hunting and that controlling the handgun would severely affect hunting. That is simply untrue. Handgun control would in no way limit the freedom of the true hunter. Few if any hunters consider the handgun an effective hunting weapon.There are a few hunters who do hunt with handguns, but most states place restrictions(限制) on the type of guns that can be used in hunting, the reason being that killing of game should be done in as humane(人道的) a way as possible. Some small handguns are more likely to wound the animal rather than kill it at once. Only long gun, rifles and shotguns are effective arms for hunting.People must understand that handguns and hunters are separate matters. Because most of the hunters use a rifle or a shotgun, there is no reason why their search for game and sport should。

Reading ComprehensionPassage 1If you’ve been joining in chat room conversations, or exchanging e-mails with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.It’s fast: it allows you to talk to six people at once. It’s convenient: you can use three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(=be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “Shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.1. When people are online, they talk by ____-.A. speaking languages other than EnglishB. exchanging e-mails with people they don’t knowC. using technology their elders don’t useD. using an especially short form of English2. According to the passage, the Internet allows many people in the world to _____.A. talk at the same time with one anotherB. discover their friends and relativesC. create a language that is simple and newD. find out things that can make them laugh3. What does the sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanations” mean?A. People should use words to express themselves in a proper way.B. People should know what time it is when they are talking.C. People online have to express themselves in a simple way.D. People should communicate with each other in a funny way.4. If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to you're A/S/L question, it means_____.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is tallB. you are talking to a boy who is 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes.5.

Here health professionals reveal their favorite methods.Comfort with food. When diet expert Judith Wurtman is stressed out, she does what a lot of people do this time of year: she reaches for food. But in her case, it’s a healthy rice cake or7 / 277 / 27two. “My research suggests that carbohydrates (碳水化合物) raise levels of a brain chemical, which has a calming effect on the entire body,”says the MIT research scientist. “So signs of stress—such as anger, tension, and inability to focus—are eased.”Run from your problems. Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, who popularized aerobics (有氧运动) through his 1968 book by that name, handles his own stress with a daily after-work run. He knows that physical activity reduces anxiety and depression. “Aerobic exercise is the best way to dissipate stress,” says Cooper.Look to the light side. On his way to the hospital where his father was to have surgery, Joel Goodman shared a hotel bus with the anxious relatives of several patients. The driver began telling his stressed-out passengers a few jokes. “Then he did some magic tricks that had my mother and me laughing.” Goodman says. “In that five-minute ride he taught us that humor can lessen our stress.”The surgery was successful, and Goodman was so moved by his experience that he researched laughter’s power. “A good laugh relaxes muscles, reduces blood pressure, restrains stress-related hormones and enhances the immune system (免疫系统),” he says.Go green. Coffee, loaded with hidden sources of caffeine, stimulates (刺激) the nervous system and can make you feel stressed more easily. That’s why Arizona doctor Andrew Weil, author of the best seller Spontaneous Healing, does not take caffeine. “When I want gentle energy, I drink green tea. It contains a caffeine-like element”, Weil says. It also contains compounds that, some studies suggest, have anti-cancer effects.1. The following are ways to free you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. looking at things in a more relaxed wayB. getting a lot of sleep during the dayC. eating some food with carbohydratesD. doing some aerobic exercise2. Eating or drinking the following can be helpful in freeing you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. drink green teaB. eat some breadC. eat some rice cakeD. drink a lot of coffee 3. A good laugh is very helpful EXCEPT to _____.A. reduce blood pressureB. restrain stress-related hormonesC. enhance the immune systemD. take a holiday4. What is the meaning of the word “dissipate” in the part “Run from Your Problems”?A. Lessen.B. Depress.C. Disturb.D. Level.5. Which of the following group of people can have a happier life, according to the passage?A. Those who are continuously eating something.B. Those who are always engaged in working.C. Those who use right methods to reduce tension.D. Those who study medicine or psychology.Passage 3In my opinion, there is only one legitimate(合法的) handgun sport and that is aim practice. It is practiced at objects which are properly monitored and usually quite safe. Only certain handguns are true “sporting weapons”, seen as such by the sport’s lovers.On the other hand, shooting at tin cans and other small objects in one’s backyard is not and should not be considered a serious sport. When uncontrolled, it can be a very dangerous practice.Some opponents(反对者) of handgun control have stated that we are out to stop all hunting and that controlling the handgun would severely affect hunting. That is simply untrue. Handgun control would in no way limit the freedom of the true hunter. Few if any hunters consider the handgun an effective hunting weapon.There are a few hunters who do hunt with handguns, but most states place restrictions(限制) on the type of guns that can be used in hunting, the reason being that killing of game should be done in as humane(人道的) a way as possible. Some small handguns are more likely to wound the animal rather than kill it at once. Only long gun, rifles and shotguns are effective arms for hunting.People must understand that handguns and hunters are separate matters. Because most of the hunters use a rifle or a shotgun, there is no reason why their search for game and sport should8 / 278 / 27。

Since her husband had died ten years before, she had prided herself on her independence. She had continued to live in their little house, alone.On this evening, however, she was standing at the living-room window, staring out at the SOLD notice in the small front garden. Her feelings were mixed. Of course, she was sad at the thought of leaving the house, as it was full of so many memories. But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last years near the sea, back in the little seaside town where she had been born. With the money from the sale of the house, she had bought a little flat there. She turned from the livingroom window, and looked round at the room. One or two pieces of furniture remained, covered with sheets. All her pictures had been taken from the walls. There was a small fish tank, with two goldfish in it. When asked why, her husband used to say: "It's nice to have something alive in the room." Since he had passed away, she had always kept some goldfish, had always had "something alive in the room.

During the long vacation I was accepted as a trainee bus conductor. I found the job fiercely demanding even on a short route with a total of about two dozen passengers. I pulled the wrong tickets, forgot the change and wrote up my log (行程记录) at the end of each trip in a way that drew hollow laughter from the inspectors. The inspectors were likely to check at any time. A conductor with twenty years' service could be dismissed if an inspector caught him accepting money without pulling a ticket.It was hot that summer: 100° Fahrenheit (华氏) every day. Inside the bus it was 30° hotter still. It was so jammed inside that my feet weren't touching the floor. I couldn't blink (眨眼睛) the sweat out of my eyes. There was no hope of collecting any fares.In these circumstances I was scarcely to blame. I didn't even know where we were, but I guessed we were at the top just before Market Street. I pressed the bell, the doors closed, and the bus surged forward. There were shouts and yells from down the back, but I thought they were the angry cries of passengers who had not got on. Too late I realized that they were coming from within the bus. The automatic doors at the back of the bus had closed around an old lady's neck as she was getting on. Her head was inside the bus. The rest of her, carrying a shopping bag was outside. I knew none of this at the time.When I at last signaled the driver to stop, he crashed to a halt and opened the automatic doors. The woman dropped to the road. Unfortunately, the car behind turned out to be full of inspectors.Since it would have made headlines if a university student had almost half-killed a woman of an advanced age, I was given the opportunity to leave quietly.1.What do we learn about the inspectors in the first paragraph?A.

I think it wasmy grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone: shetaught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested inlooking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to doZoology at university. I didn't get my first camera until after I'd graduated, when I was dueto go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the seacreatures I would find there. My father didn't know anything aboutphotography, but he bought me an Exacta, which was really quitea good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first picturesof sea anemones (海葵) and starfish (海星). I became keen veryquickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I've tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are alwaysbiologically correct. There are people who will alter thingsdeliberately: you don't pick up sea creatures from the middle of theshore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of theshore without knowing you're doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people's behaviour towards wildanimals and it's a problem that more and more people are going towild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won'tget used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheerpressure of people, coupled with the fact there are increasingly fewplaces where no-one else has photographed, means that over theyears, life has become much more difficult for the professionalwildlife photographers.Nevertheless (然而), wildlife photographers play a very importantpart in educating people about what is out there and what needsconserving.

The Peace Corps was established by executive order in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy and approved by Congress as a permanent agency within the State Department later that year. The program came about during the Cold War and was designed to oppose the Soviet challenge to Western influence in the widely open Third World area of superpower competition. More than 180,000 Americans have served in the Peace Corps since its beginning.Purpose & functionThe program officially has three goals. The first is to help the people of interested countries and areas in meeting their needs for trained workers. The second is to help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served. And the third is to help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.The Peace Corps works by first announcing its availability to foreign governments. These governments then determine areas in which the organization can be involved. The organization then matches the requested assignments to its pool of applicants and sends those volunteers with the appropriate skills to the countries that first made the requests.Background & historySince the end of the Second World War, various members of the United States Congress had proposed bills to establish volunteer organizations in the Third World. In 1952 Senator Brien McMahon proposed an "army" of young Americans to act as "bringers of democracy". Privately funded non-religious organizations had been sending volunteers overseas since the 1950s.John F. Kennedy first announced his own idea for such an organization during the 1960 presidential campaign at a late-night speech at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on October 14. During a later speech in San Francisco, California on November 1, he named this proposed organization the "Peace Corps". Critics of the program (including Kennedy's opponent, and future United States president, Richard M. Nixon) claimed the program would be nothing but a place for young people to hide from military service. Others doubted whether college-aged volunteers had the necessary skills. The idea was popular among most college students, however, and Kennedy continued to pursue it, asking respected academics such as Max Millikan and Chester Bowles to help him outline the organization and its goals. During his opening address as president, Kennedy again promised to create the program.Established & approvedOn March 1, 1961, Kennedy signed an Executive Order which officially started the Peace Corps. Concerned with the growing tide of revolutionary feelings in the Third World, Kennedy saw the Peace Corps as a means of countering the notions of the "Ugly American", especially in the emerging nations of postcolonial Africa and Asia.On March 4, Kennedy appointed Sargent Shriver to be the program's first director. Shriver was tasked with fleshing out the organization, which he did with the help of Warren W. Wiggins and others. Shriver and his think tank outlined the three major goals of the Peace Corps and decided the number of volunteers they needed to recruit. The program began recruiting volunteers that following July.Until about 1967, applicants to the Peace Corps had to pass a placement test that tested "general knowledge" (knowledge of various skills needed for various Peace Corps assignments) andlanguage ability. After an address from Kennedy, who was introduced by Rev. Russell Fuller of Memorial Christian Church, Disciples of Christ, on August 28, 1961, the first group of volunteers left for Ghana and Tanzania. The program was formally approved by Congress on September 22, 1961 and within two years over 7,300 Peace Corps volunteers were serving in 44 countries. This number would jump to 15,000 in June of 1966, the largest number in the organization's history.Early troubles for the Peace CorpsThough the organization was begun with the noblest of intentions, it experienced a big controversy in its very first year of operation. On October 13, 1961, a postcard written by a volunteer named Marjorie Michelmore in Nigeria to her boyfriend in the US caused some problems. In it, she described Nigeria as "ugly and absolutely primitive in living conditions". This postcard, however, never made it out of the country. A student at the University College at Ibadan found it and made copies to distribute around campus. Nigerian students accused the volunteers of being spies of the US government. Soon the international press picked up the story and this led several people in the US administration to question the future of the program as a whole. Nigerian students protested the program, and the American volunteers hid themselves away and eventually began a hunger strike. After several days, the Nigerian students agreed to open a dialogue with the Americans.Independent statusIn July 1971, President Nixon brought the Peace Corps under the umbrella agency, ACTION. The Peace Corps would remain under ACTION until President Jimmy Carter declared it fully independent in a 1979 executive order. This independent status would be further secured when Congress passed legislation in 1981 to make the organization an independent federal agency.Programs branching outAt this time, the Peace Corps began branching out past its traditional concerns of education- and agriculture-related projects. In 1982, Director Loret Miller Ruppe began several new business-related programs. For the first time, a large number of conservative and Republican volunteers joined the group of overseas volunteers, and the organization continued to reflect the evolvingpolitical and social conditions in the United States.Funding cuts during the early 1980s dropped the number of volunteers to 5,380, its lowest level since the organization's early years. Funding began to increase in 1985, and Congress passed an initiative to raise the number of volunteers to 10,000 by 1992.After the September 11, 2001 attacks alerted the nation to growing anti-US feelings in the Middle East, President George W. Bush pledged to double the size of the organization within five years as a part of the War on Terrorism. For 2004, Congress passed a budget increase at $325 million, $30 million above that of 2003 but $30 million below the President's request.Now, the Peace Corps is trying to double the number of volunteers it sends abroad by 2007.
