Since moving to Buffalo she’s become a big hockey fan and has encouraged me to start watching it. Unfortunately it’s very difficult to find hockey on television here in Alabama. Since hockey games don’t air very much on television I’ve had to look for different ways to watch hockey games.I often see websites that claim if you go to their website you can watch television on your computer. I try out many of these websites hoping that one of the television stations is a northern station that airs hockey games. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work. Either the site doesn’t really give you what they advertise or their video player doesn’t work properly. But finally I’ve found one website that actually works.Free Tube is a site that you can go to and watch Television online for free. You don’t have to download any kind of special software or pay money or even sign up for anything. All you have to do is go to Free Tube, choose your channel and start watching.The different channels to choose from are separated into different categories like news, business, entertainment, music and sports. You’re not going to find channels like NBC or ABC so you can watch the latest episode of Heroes or Grey’s Anatomy but it does include s ome popular channels like Cartoon Network and ESPN.There is also a movie section. Each movie channel airs different sorts of films like adventure, classics, comedy or horror and that channel will always air that kind of movies. The movie section also includes my favorite station called Maxx Trailers (预告片). Maxx Trailers airs nothing but movies trailers 24 hours a day. Some of the trailers are for movies coming out and some are for movies that have already been released but already released movies don’t go back farther than a couple of months. ks5uSo far I haven’t had any problems with Free Tube’s video player either. Whenever I choose a channel, the video almost always works and usually loads every quickly. The only problem I have with Free Tube is that there is currently a glitch if you’re using Firefox. Once you choose a channel you can’t select another channel to change to, your web browser will freeze up. So if you’re using Firefox, the only way to switch channels is to leave the site and re-enter the site, when choosing what channel you want to go to. However, Free Tube is aware of this glitch and is working with Mozilla to get it fixed right away.If you’re missing some show everyone is talking about like Grey’s Anatomy or Heroes, this isn’t really a s olution for that. But Free Tube is a good way to find channels that you weren’t aware of; there are several good stations to be found.56. The author mainly ________ in this passage.A. tells us his experience in using the Web.B. introduces Free Tube to the readersC. shows us the disadvantages of Free TubeD. shows us how to enjoy films online57. The author got interested in watching hockey games ________A. because he is a sports fanB. due to his sister’s influenceC. since everyone enjoys the gamesD. because he has nothing to do all day long58. From the passage we can learn that ______________A. the author is also very fond of moviesB. Maxx Trailers airs to-be-released moviesC. ABC is a very famous TV station in AmericaD. Firefox is the only software used to watch films online59. The underlined word “glitch” probably means _________A. coverB. changeC. noteD. faultSome novels simply entertain and others contain a powerful message in the story line and characters. In his first novel, A Wind In Montana, Mitch Davies tells a story about young adults and how they accept responsibility for their lives.A Wind in Montana is a great tale of two teenagers, Rory Coleman and Victoria Beach, high school students at the same school, who struggle to make the right decision for themselves. As each of them nears adulthood, they become more concerned with the future and set goals that will bring them happiness and a sense of achievement.Without any advice from his parents, Rory chooses to pursue (追求) a profession in chemistry, applies for a chemistry scholarship, and determines to do everything he can to achieve it. Along the path, Rory finds that even though he has a plan, there are obstacles (障碍) that could prevent him from realizing his goals. V ictoria’s struggles are different from Rory’s. Although her father has decided that she should become a professional musician, Victoria has other plans for her life. Together, Rory and Victoria attempt to follow their dreams, despite the obstacles in their paths. A Wind In Montana contains a lesson for all teens about to enter adulthood — that disappointment and setbacks (挫折) are going to occur no matter how determined they are and that they need to develop skills along the way that will help them deal with them effectively.Mitch Davies’ book stands out among today’s teen books that deal with imaginary situations. A Wind In Montana is a real story about real people facing real-life situations. It’s entertaining and also helps readers think about their own lives and offers various ways to handle situations that may arise.60. According to the passage, both Rory and Victoria ____.A. get along well with othersB. pursue a profession in chemistryC. follow their parents’ adviceD. have a strong sense of self61. The third paragraph is mainly about ____.A. the popularity of A Wind In MontanaB. the content of A Wind in MontanaC. Mitch Davies’ writing styleD. Mitch Davies’ achievements62. Unlike other teen books, A Wind In Montana ____.A. deals with some imaginary situationsB. is based on real-life experiencesC. focuses on responsibilities teens should takeD. discusses the future of young adults63. The purpose of the passage is ____.A. to speak highly of an authorB. to report a piece of newsC. to review a bookD. to collect materials for a bookW TaipeiThe W Hotel is amon g the city’s big-name luxury(奢华) hotels. Futuristic and fancy, the W Taipei’s setting is reminding you of a Lady Gaga video; perhaps that explains why the singer insisted on staying here on a recent visit. There are eight room types to choose from, with names such as Fabulous and Extreme Wow. They vary wildly in style.10 Zhongxiao E. Road, Sect. 5, Xin Yi Area Taipei City Hall MRT; +886 2 7703 8888; from NT$8,900 (US$299); Grand HotelIf sleeping in landmarks is your thing, the Taipei Grand Hotel is a must. The Grand is an expression of classical Chinese art mixed with Western construction principles. The Grand Hotel is attractive and full of history, but rooms are aging, so don’t expect the inside to be as “grand” as the outside. You can e njoy yourself at a driving range of golf, year-round pools and no fewer than eight restaurants.No. 1, Lane 1, Zhongshan N. Road, Section 4 shuttle from Yuan Shan MRT; +886 2 2886 8888; from NT$4,800 (US$165); Dandy HotelFrom free drinks and snacks in the lobby(大堂) to seasonally themed decorations, this hotel takes care of the small touches. But what places the Dandy Hotel above others in the same price category（范围）are views over Da-An Park; they’re reminders of those of New York’s Central Park. Rooms with views are worth the extra money paid, but book early -- there are only two on each floor.No. 33, Xin Yi Road, Sect. 3, Dongmen MRT; +886 2 2707 6899; from NT$2,340 (US$80); Homey HostelTaiwanese brother and sister Josh and Kelly make guests feel right at home at this bargain Hostel. According to them, their motive in starting the hostel was to make friends, which is why they can often be found in the public area chatting with guests. There's a small kitchen, public computer, free coffee and tea, and luggage storage.1/F, No. 7, Lane 180, Tonghua Street,) Liuzhangli MRT; +886 91900 2116; dorms from NT$500 (US$17); 64. May is fan of Lady Gaga, and she may probably stay in ________when in Taipei.A. W TaipeiB. Grand HotelC. Dandy HotelD. Homey Hostel65. Which of the following words can best take the place of the underlined word“touches”?A. waysB. detailsC. sensesD. contacts66. If you are a backpack traveller with a low budget, which would be your best choice?A. W TaipeiB. Grand HotelC. Dandy HotelD. Homey Hostel67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according the passage?A. Rooms in the W Hotel are of the similar style but with different fancy names.B. The Taipei Grand Hotel is an excellent mixture of classic and modern construction.C. It is the park-view rooms in the Dandy Hotel that make it quite unique.D. The desire of helping strangers drives Josh and Kelly to open the Homey Hostel.Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.Diet products weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie（卡）, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the counter instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food brands.On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.68. The first paragraph mainly tells us _____.A. diet products can bring out people’s potentialB. people have difficulty in choosing diet productsC. diet products are misleading peopleD. people are fed up with diet products69. One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to ____.A. resist a variety of diet foodsB. hesitate before they enjoy diet foodsC. pay attention to their own eating habitsD. watch their weight rather than their diet70. The purpose of writing this passage is _________.A. to warn people of the side effect of diet productsB. to tell people how to lose weightC. to advise people to eat diet productsD. to introduce some diet products71. Which of the following shows the structure（结构）of the passage?CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: ConclusionEWe find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all，it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade！Besides, it is rather unreal to grade pupils just according to their intellectual(智力的) ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively in order to have the ability to become leaders. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs；sometimes they work on individual tasks , and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is suitable. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work：it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.72. We can know from the passage that the author’ s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching” is______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. questioningD. inactive73. The underlined words “held back” in Paragraph 1 probably means “______”.A. drawn to their studiesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. made to remain in the same classesD. prevented from advancing74. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraph?A. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.B. Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activitiesC. Group work gives pupils the chance to learn to work together with others.75. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ______.A. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryB. recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classD. tell us the importance of proper formal classroom teachingV. 短文填词。

My health suffers and my weight suffers. I have to get my health in check，not only for me-but because I promised my 9 year-old son. I’11 make sure to take time to exercise every day and make good food and lifestyle choices.

The scientists point to evidence that changes in the past thirty years may already be affecting human health. Temperature changes may also influence the spread of disease. For example, warmer weather speeds the growth of organisms that cause diseases like malaria and dengue fever.The work by scientists from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the World Health Organization appeared in the journal Nature. Jonathan Patz, professor of the Gaylord Nelson Institute, led the study. He notes that climate scientists linked global warming to the heat that killed thousands in Europe in August of 2003. He says poor countries are least responsible for the warming yet are most at risk from the health effects of higher temperatures. He says areas at greatest risk include Southern and Eastern Africa and coastlines along the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Also, large cities experience what scientists call a ―heat island‖ effect that can intensify conditions.Professor Patz says average temperatures worldwide have increased aboutone-third of a degree Celsius in the last thirty years. But he tells us even that can make a difference with a disease like malaria. The report says average temperatures could increase by as much as six degrees Celsius by the end of the century.Representatives from about two hundred nations have been meeting in Montreal, Canada, to discuss climate change. The ten-day conference ends December 9th. It is the first such United Nations meeting since the Kyoto Protocol took effect earlier this year. The protocol seeks to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases released as pollution into the air.72. The text mainly talks about _________.A. the spread of malariaB. effects of human activities on climateC. a ten-day conference in MontrealD. health effects caused by climate change73. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the text?A. Some diseases spread faster in hot weather.B. Human activities contribute to the climate change.C.
