Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks ( 平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia ( 百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.35. It can be inferred(判断) from the passage that ____.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledgeB. cinemas are the best choice in getting informationC. reading is a cheap way of learning and having funD. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself36.What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading,however ”underlined in thesecond paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun than television.D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.37. Which of the following is mainly discussed in the last paragraph?A. Types of books.B. Kinds of dictionaries.C. Lists of history books.D. Collections of stories.38. What can we learn from the passage?A. Fewer and fewer people will buy books.B. A good dictionary should be kept in every home.C. Books with hard covers sell better than paperbooks.D. More people like TV programs about famous men.People know the dangers of fires. It ’s good for a family to know some knowledge about fire prevention. Here are some suggestions:Put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.Make escape plans. They should know all the ways out of the house. If there is fire, everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.Buy fire extinguishers(灭火器) and put them in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to use them.Practice for a fire. They do fire practice because they teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules:*Don’t open a hot door! The fire can get bigger if you open the door.*Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises.*What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First, stop! Don ’t run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. Then roll! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket around you to put out any flames still burning on you. The blanket stops air feeding the fire.There ar e many possible causes of fires. A wise family is ready all the time. If there is a fire, don’t forget to call 119 for help.A. they practice for a fireB. they make escape plansC. they buy fire extinguishersD. they use electrical cookers40.

When I was younger, I didn’t even know this business existed (存在).”It was Efron’s dad who first found his son’s talent in the acting world and encouraged him to do school musicals like many other kids.

But later on, some of the professionals started noticing the nice young man. Agents crowded in to make the kid a worldwide star.The successful comedy Hairspray (2022) put Efron in the public eye.

But then, suddenly, th ere we were, on all kinds of American programmes.”Today,High School Musical 2 has turned out to be one of the hottest sequels(续集) that came out this summer.Right now,Efron admits “I am one lucky guy to have landed in such greatprojects.” But he is als o happy about the success of the High School Musical series and Hairspray for another reason, “They tell kids that what’s really important in life is following your dreams and truly being yourself.”“If it happens to me, then, it can happen to anybody.” Ef ron said.43. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. Efron’s family didn’t do business.B. None of Efron’s family was ever an actor.C. Efron’s work had nothing to do with show business.D.

It’s probablybecause you have different personalities.Personality is also about how people think, behave, and react(反应) to everything around them from day to day.So what makes people think and behave in certain ways?Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its blood type,genes (基因) and other physical things may help decide what the baby will be like.But one’s personality doesn’t sto p here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. This doesn’t mean it’s impossible to change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don’t get too worried about your shortcomings. Just accept them. This is a good way to start making changes.If you don’t know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you’re too shy? Tell yourself to simile at people. Start talking to people using warm greetings.Don’t give yourself a hard time about it all. It’s not easy to change lifelong habits in one night. Keep working at it.

You're not going to get anything bydoing this. Run for your life!" The Quetzal bird stopped for a moment, looked at the owl, and answered, " I'm doing the best I can with what I have."In the end, the forests of the earth were saved from the great fire by a small Quetzal bird, an owl, and the many other animals and people who got together to put out the fire.Therefore, never give up just because a man's strength is too weak . If you keep on doing it, maybe there will be more people joining you, all the strength is immeasurable(不可估量的).1. What did the owl want to do at first when he faced the big fire in the forests?A.

The blue smiling cartoon figure has curly hair and is in the shape of Chinese character 人 , or human beings. It was presented during a televised ceremony at the Shanghai Grand Stage in front of an audience of more than 9,000."Haibao is a jolly, confident and cute kid," said Shao Longtu, 62, CEO of the Jiumuchuansheng advertising company and head of the mascot design team. "Using a human being as a mascot reflects the spirit of human-orientation, while the color blue stands for water, sea, earth, life, dreams, the future and technology."The mascot was selected from among 26,655 entries from 21 countries and regions.In addition, the emblem for the expo resembled the Chinese character SHI, or world. "The mascot is a perfect match for the emblem. It also deepens the expo theme 'Better city, better life', " Shao said.To 54-year-old Liu Jinfan, the mascot was beyond her expectation. "I didn't expect it to be human being, but I like the idea. To host the expo and develop the economy, the final goal is the same -- to improve people's lives."The expo, which runs May 1 to October 31, 2010, was expected to draw 70 million visitors, an average of 400,000 a day.It was the first time for the event to be held in a developing country since the inaugural fair in London in 1851.

While that may sound nave,many romantic Chinese guys face a similar dilemma this Sunday.Chinese Lunar New Year falls on the same day as Valentine's Day this year,forcing amorous young men to make a tough choice between mother and girlfriend.This has also caused trouble for flower shops since business is still down ahead ofthe usual rush for many florists.Jiao Ting, a florist in the Tiantongyuan residential area of Beijing's ChangpingDistrict, is trying to keep a stiff upper lip."Our sales have dropped at least 30 percent and less than 10 people have placedorders each day," Jiao said."In previous years, we offered free delivery service to customers who boughtflowers worth more than 200 yuan. But now, we give free delivery and chocolate ortoy bears as gifts," she said.The major reason for slow business is that many unmarried young people haveto skip celebrating Valentine's Day with their significant others for a traditional dinnerwith family.No matter how weak their businesses are, florists in the capital are notplanning any discounts but instead plan to raise prices.According to a survey by , one of China's biggest news portals, about56.3 percent of respondents will go home for a family dinner on Feb 14, while 31.3percent will celebrate Valentine's Day with their special someone.51.

Valentine's Day is more important than the Spring Festival for young people.B. The flower business is booming during the festival because ofValentine’ s Day.C.

After that, the pair completed the rest of their routine in perfect fashion.Eventually, they accomplished as high as 139.91 points in free skating, plus 76.66 in short program, they scored a record total of 216.57 points to win the gold medal.Zhao Hongbo, Figure skating gold medalist, said, "I'm so happy. It's like a dream. Actually, I felt big pressure before the competition because it has been many years. We were desperate to realize this dream. But today even if there was an error, generally it didn't affect our overall performance."Shen Xue, Figure skating gold medalist, said, "We made our return last year for today, for our dream. Whatever difficulty we met, we finally made it come true. I felt very happy."Meanwhile, another Chinese duo Pang Qing and Tong Jian earlier staged an impressive showdown equally winning performance, gaining 71.50 points for their short program, thus capturing silver medal after registering a total of 213.31 points to close out an unforgettable day for China.

Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has revenues(收入) of ￡30 million a year.Advice for others: Sahar has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It!

The stronger team is a shoo-in. there is no way that it can lose.The expression ―shoo-in‖ comes from horse racing. It comes from the word ―shoo‖. That is not the shoe we wear on our feet. It’s another word, S-H-O-O. To shoo is an expression hundreds of years old that means to force an animal to move in a desired direction.Many years ago dishonest（不诚实）riders sometimes agreed secretly to control their horses so that one chosen horse would win the race. All but one of the riders would hold back their horses. The chosen rider would shoo his horse ahead of the others, and win the race.The other riders would secretly bet（打赌）large amounts of money that the chosen horse would win. The public（公众）soon learned about such races. They began to call the winner of such a race a ―shoo-in‖.These days, people use shoo-into describe（描述）any athlete（运动员）or competitor that seems certain to win, even without cheating.American runner Edewin Moses won more than hundred races before he ran the hurdle race（跳拦赛）in the 1984 Olympic Games. Everyone said Moses was a shoo-in, and that he could not lose. And they were right. He won the gold medal.( ) 61.

Which of the following statements is not true?A.―shoo-in‖ came from the word ―shoo‖.B.The US runner Moses was worthy of（配的上）a shoo-in.C.The public did not know they were being cheated.D.Some runners bet a lot of money on the chosen horse.( ) 64. The main idea of the passa ge is that ―shoo-in‖ is ________.ed for anyone or anything that is certain to win a gameed to admire（钦佩）a person who seems to be sure to win a raceC. a word used to describe a dishonest personed for any athlete or competitor that seems too clever to be cheated( ) 65. In the last paragraph the author means to tell us ________.A.who Edewin Moses wasB.Moses won a lot of racesC.Moses was the best runner in AmericaD.We can use ―shoo-in― to describe an excellent runner.DThese days，more and more young people wish to be more beautiful，So they turn to plastic surgery(整形手术)for help．They spend thousands of yuan on these painful surgeries to fix(修整)their nose，to change their eyelids(眼皮)or to take off weight from their stomachs．In fact，most people are not pleased with the way they look．Even the most beautiful actressesoften wish they could change something about their looks．Should we live our whole lives believing we are ugly?
