第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題，每題2分，滿分40分)

A
B
A popular saying going, “Sticks and stone may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves ? the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. But we really shouldn’t be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This “self-talk” helps us motive ourselves, remember things, solves problems, and calm ourselves down. Beware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well on a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying, “Good job!”
Often, words came out of our mouths without us thinking about the effects they will have; but we should be aware that our words cause certain responses to others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or we can use harsh, critical language, which will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.
Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.
Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motive others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.
56. The author argues in the first paragraph that ________.
A. words have lasting effects on us
B. words will never hurt us at all
C. positive effects last longer than negative effcts
D. negative words may let us down
57. Why should we not feel embarrassed when it comes to talking to ourselves?
A. Almost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.
B. Talking to ourselves is believed to be good for our health.
C. Talking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.
D. It does harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone.
58. The underlined phrase “give ourselves a pat on the back” in paragraph 3 means _________.
A. blame ourselves B. punish ourselves
C. praise ourselves D. talk to ourselves
59. Which of the following statements would the author agree to?
A. Unkind words are more unlikely to be forgotten.
B. It is better to think twice before talking to others.
C. Words always possess long positive effects.
D. Kind words are sometimes not needed at all.
60. Why should we talk in a friendly way when returning an item to a store?
A. Because kind words build up complex relationships.
B. Because the clerk in a store is hard to deal with.
C. Because friendly words cause positive responses.
D. Because critical language may hurt your feelings.
B
Heading overseas on a business trip or just for pleasure soon? If so, have you thought about how you will get in touch with people where you are going? You may need to catch a cab or get directions to an attraction, not to mention you might want to stay in touch with the folks back home.
Hope you aren't counting on your personal cellphone. Industry experts estimate that most American cellphones won't work overseas due to compatibility (兼容性) issues. And even if yours did work, the roaming (漫游) charges would be too high.
So what are your choices? You could rent a phone with a local number in the country you're traveling to, but that wouldn't do you much good if you're constantly on the go. A more cost-effective way would be to rent a satellite phone from a company like Global Cellular Rental.
The process is amazingly fast and simple. All you have to do is to log onto the company's website, www. globalcellularrental, corn, and place an order. The site will show you the countries you will be traveling to and ask you how long you will need the phone. The company then ships a cellphone directly to you anywhere in the world. The phone arrives with complete instructions. The traveler also learns his overseas phone number well in advance, enabling him to inform all vital contacts of the number before he ever steps on a plane.
Roaming rates are usually 80 percent less than those charged by American
service providers. Calls back to the
This cellphone solution is becoming so popular that Global Cellular Rental actually has relationships with hotel chains around the world to keep phones in stock for hotel guests. And for those whose journey really takes them off the beaten track, the company can also rent satellite phones to them. These phones work anywhere in the world as long as you are outside.

A. How to Rent a Satellite Phone
B. A Cost-effective Way to Communicate While Traveling Overseas
C. A Satellite Phone vs a Personal Cellphone

D. You will spend 40%
less compared with American local service when you call back to your friends in

As you read this, nearly 80, 000 Americans are waiting for a new heart，kidney or some other organ that can save their life. Tragically about 6, 000 of them will die this year--nearly twice as many people as died in the Sept. 11 attacks--because they won’t get their transplant in time. 86％ of Americans say they support organ donation, but only 20％actually sign up to do it.
Part of the
problem is the way we handle organ donation. Americans who want to make this

The world’s first subway was built in
The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays, but the first track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the first underground track which was six kilometers long. About 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot, as well as chemical gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems, riding the Underground did become popular. It carried nine million riders in its first year.
Modern subways have come a long way since the early days of the London Underground. Today there are 94 large underground rapid transit systems around the world. The busiest of these subway systems is the Tokyo Metro which opened in 1927. This efficient subway has two billion riders per year, and “pushers” work on the platforms during busy traffic hours to help push riders onto trains. At times, subway cars have been packed with up to 300 people! Stations like the famous Ginza Sugo Eki Ginza Consolidated Station include underground department store, supermarkets, restaurants, and specialty shops. Shoppers never have to go above ground!

Microsoft founder Bill Gates said that he planned to give away almost all of his vast fortune, largely to the cause of global health, during the course of his lifetime. With an estimated worth of more than $ 40 billion, according to Forbes, the project will be no small feat for Gates. Having already provided the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation with $ 24 billion to address global health issues, Gates said that eventually his entire fortune will be put towards the cause except “a few percent left for the kids.”
So what has made the richest man in the world to channel his resources so heavily into one interest? Gates believes that “the equality of opportunity” in which Americans take such pride needs to extend to other nations around the world. Improving the health of the populations, he says, has proven to be an essential method in helping poor countries to be financially successful. “National borders allow inequalities,” said Gates, “We all need to take a more global view, rather than just saying my country is doing well. We have to step up these health issues, knowing how few resources are going into them.”
Gates said
that both his parents set good examples to him as a child. His father, William
H. Gates, was the head of the local Planned Parenthood, and his mother, Mary,
volunteered for the
However, Gates, 47, began to question his ability to wait that long. “It seemed there was a real time urgency,” Gates said, “I started to think, how many lives could I save before then?”
41. Why will Bill Gates give away his vast fortune?
A. to improve the
health of population in
B. to improve the health of population all over the world
C. to avoid leaving his children too much money
D. to spare the American government the burden of health care
42. According to the passage, which of the following is right?
A. Americans should care about people in other countries
B. Americans should treat fellow citizens well
C. Americans should devote themselves to certain projects
D. Americans can be world-famous by giving away vast fortune
43. Bill Gates gave away his vast fortune earlier than he had expected because of __________.
A. his weakening health condition B. his parents’ suggestions
C. his great success in business D. his concerns for suffering people
44. According to the passage, which word can be used to describe Bill Gates?
A. brave B. kind-hearted C. strong-minded D. confident
B
Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.
The ridge structure on a person’s fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.
Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer’s ink. They can be recorded easily. With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain. His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.
When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Special techniques are used to “develop” them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.
45. Scientists and experts have proved that the pattern of a human being’s finger skin ________.
A. is similar to his mother’s B. is valuable to himself only
C. is like that of others with the same type of blood
D. is different from that of all others
46. If your fingers are wounded by knife, fire or other means, the structure of skin will ________.
A. be changed partly B. be replaced by a different one
C. be the same when the wound is recovered D. become ugly
47. Some criminals remove their own finger-prints by ________.
A. using printer’s ink B. injuring the inner skin
C. damaging the outer skin D. damaging the color
48. Finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case because it ________.
A. is complicated but reliable B. is simple and not expensive
C. is expensive but easy to do D. can bring a lot of money

There are good Santas and there are bad Santas. The good Santas all realize one thing: In the mind of a child, Santa Claus is perfect.
That’s
difficult. And so they come from around the world to attend the
A former Macy’s Santa named Charles Howard founded the
The school teaches everything from breathing techniques for carol singing to the beard maintenance. There are lessons in child psychology, sign language and even media training for talk-show appearances and call-in shows. Santas also need to make sure they know all the names of the reindeer. What’s harder to deal with, however, is children who ask for Christmas gifts like bringing daddy home or making mommy happy again.
After spending time in the classroom, Weir went to the mall to test his training. However, at one point, his hat fell off, and he was unsure how to react. “You’re the real Santa,” Valent said. “Pick that hat up, slip it back on, keep smiling and do your job. You’ve got to stay on top of your game. Even the last one at night, when you’re tired, you’ve got to remember: This one’s forever, so do a good job.”
49. According to the passage, good Santas should be the ones that ________.
A. can offer the children some gifts B. help adults look after their children
C. have ability to make children happy D. should be perfect in the mind of children

51. The
A. train the pet reindeer for the Santas B. earned money from its students
C. train perfect Santas for the world D. show the world’s concern to the poor
52. According to Weir’s performance, we can conclude that ________.
A. Weir was short of experience B. Weir was not fit for the job as a Santa
C. Weir did very badly in the game D. Weir was not a good student in school

Can you understand the beginning of this essay? "My smmr hols
wr CWOT. B4, we used 2go2 NY
The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phones text messages. Text messages (also called SMS) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called "texting"
A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it's common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like "r" for "are," "u" for "you," and "2"for "to." Several letters can also represent a phrase, like "lol" for "laughing out loud." Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling "please" as "pls."
Some parents and
teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers.
The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way
was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, "My summer holidays were a
complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to
Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always develop, and this is just another way in which English is changing. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.
57. Which characteristic of texting is NOT described in the passage?
A. Using letters to represents words. B. Using phrases to represent essay.
C. Using letters to represent phrases. D. Using numbers to represent words.
58. Which of the following was most probably the title of students' essay?
A. My Smmr Hols B. CU in
59. Why aren't some people worried about the effect of texting?
A. Not many people use texting. B. Spelling in English is too difficult.
C. Teenagers quickly become bored with texting.
D. Texting will disappear because of new technology.
60. Which of the following will probably be the title of the passage?
A. Texting, a way to make words shorter B. How does texting come into being
C. Texting and different attitudes towards it D. Main characteristics of texting

"It takes an entire village to raise a

about that.
Today, more and more
schools are reaching out to involve parents, community members and businesses to
help shape a child's future.

better when parents and schools work together. ___2___

children create and achieve new goals. Help with homework, read to a child,

build self-esteem（自尊心）. Kids need role models and advisers can be role
models by sharing their experiences and wisdom.
___3___ Invite a class
from your local school to visit your workplace. You may be providing a glimpse
that opens a new world of possibilities. Show students what goes on during a
typical day. Give a mini course for students: how to use a computer; how

teacher, nurse, or even a newspaper reporter on your hands.

Nowadays, some of us students have formed some bad habits on campus. For example, some students leave the lights on in the daytime, or let water running after washing. Some leave over lunch food on the table after eating. Besides, waste paper can be seen everywhere. It is well known that these habits will have a bad influence on our character and behavior. What’s worse, they can not only increase our cost at school and add financial burden to our parents, but also waste the limited resource. So to build a resource-saving campus, it is high time that we had to deal with the problems. In my opinion, we should start with ourselves to save everything. I’d like to remind my classmates to take the lead in reducing the waste. We must form some good habits. For example, when we brush our teeth and wash hands, never leave water running unnecessarily and when we leave classrooms, we should make sure that the light have been turned off.

As I topped the crest (頂)of a hill, the beautiful sunset kept me going for a few minutes more. Then in the distance, I saw a lone woman riding very slowly 48 the bright red sun.

A
A new study found that inner-city kids living in neighborhoods with more green space gained about 13% less weight over a two-year period than kids living among more concrete and fewer trees. Such findings tell a powerful story. The obesity epidemic(肥胖癥的流行)began in the 1980s, and many people think it results from increased portion（食物） sizes and inactivity , but that can't be everything. Big Macs and TVs have been with us for a long time. "Most experts agree that the changes were related to something in the environment," says Thomas Glass of the Hopkins School of Public Health. That something could be a shrinking of the green.
The new research, published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, isn't the first to associate greenery with better health, but it does get us closer to identifying what works and why. At its most straightforward, a green neighborhood simply means more places for kids to play ― which is important since time spent outdoors is one of the strongest links to children's activity levels.
Glass warns that most studies don't necessarily prove a link between greenness and health, but they're helping spur action. In September the U.S. government approved the No Child Left Inside Act to encourage public initiatives(積極性)aimed at exposing kids to the outdoors.
Finding green space is, of course, not always easy, and you may have to work a bit to get your family a little grass and trees. If you live in a suburb or a city with good parks, take advantage of what's there. Your children in particular will love it ― and their bodies will thank you.
56. According to the passage, what might cause children’s inactivity?
A. Less concrete and more trees B. Increased portion sizes
C. A green neighborhood D. A shrinking of the green
57. According to the passage, which of the following statements is wrong?
A. Big Macs and TVs have something to do with obesity.
B. If a 100-pound man lives in green space for 2 years, he will lose 13 pounds.
C. Kids should be exposed more to outdoors.
D. Kids gain less weight living in a suburb or a city with good parks.
58. What does the underlined word “spur” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. improve B. take C. encourage D. stop
59. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. The obesity epidemic B. Slimmer in the grass
C. Causes of obesity D. Prevention of obesity

Tight-lipped elders used to say, “It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get．”
Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things．
You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served．
Similarly, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself．In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services．
This account of yourself is actually a sketch (概括)of your working life and should include education, experience and references．Such an account is valuable．It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews．While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications, will pay him to employ you and your “wares” and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner．
When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible(實在的) to sell．Then you are ready to hunt for a job．Get all the possible information about your could-be job．Make inquiries as to the details regarding the job and the firm．Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgment．Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now．
64．What do the elders mean when they say, “It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get”?
A．You’ll probably get what you want． B．You are supposed to be practical．
C．You should be dissatisfied with what you have． D．It’s essential to set a goal for yourself．
65．A blueprint made before inviting a friend to dinner is used in this passage as ________．
A．an example of how to write an application for a job
B．an indication of how to secure a good job
C．a guideline for job seekers to succeed
D．a principle for job evaluation and description
66．According to the passage, one must write an account of himself before starting to find a job because ______．
A．that is the first step to please the employer B．that is the requirement of the employer
C．it enables him to know when to sell his services D．it enables him to become clearly aware of himself
D
For many children the search for E.T. or life from another
planet may seem to be already over. What is it about this big-eyed creature
from outer space that has made
Today’s children, growing up alone in homes separated from other children, need fairy tales even more than those did at the time when the tales were first told. In E.T. they find a fairy tale with a special interest because it is set in the space age, which is closer to their situation than a story set in an old castle. E.T. may not be good-looking physically, but he is totally harmless, kind and charming. No child need fear an outer space filled with creatures like E.T. Actually, children often have a strong need for imaginary playmates.
For all children, the film raises the question of the need to grow up and the desire to stay a child. Elliott decides not to go with E.T. aboard the spaceship, where he could continue living in an imaginary world. As one child said, “Elliott stayed on Earth because he has to grow up and you can’t grow up on the faraway planet of Jupiter. You stay small and a kid like E.T.”
The film offers many ideas from the traditional fairy tale. Firstly, good children get the better of bad adults. Secondly, the hero is put in a difficult position in the early stages of the story but there is a happy ending when he is finally rescued. Thirdly, the film offers the idea of rebirth, which is found in many fairy tales. Finally, the story also reminds one of “The Three Feathers” by the well-known writers of fairy tales―the Grimm brothers. In this story, the youngest son wins his father’s kingdom by defeating his brothers with the help of an ugly old toad(癩蛤蟆). But to a final test, to bring back the most beautiful woman, he wins again by choosing the toad who turns into a beauty. Thus, it is love which turns even ugly things into something beautiful. It’s easy to see how that is true of E.T.
67. The story of E.T. tells people______.
A. how difficult the process of growing up can be
B. How parents should take good care of their lonely children
C. victory can be achieved if people face difficulties bravely
D. that children need playmates and fairy tales badly
68. One of the reasons children like E.T. is that______.
A. E.T. is a big-eyed good-looking creature B. the story is set in an old castle
C. it is an exciting, ancient fairy tale D. E.T. is likable, harmless and kind-hearted
69. Elliott did not go with E.T. on board the spaceship because_______.
A. he did not belong there B. he would look like E.T. there
C. he had to stay on earth and “grow up” D. E.T.’s home was an imaginary place that did not exist
70. The theme of “The Three Feathers” is _______.
A. love can turn ugly things into something beautiful B. good children get the better of bad adults
C. brave people can overcome all difficulties D. good people will finally enjoy a rebirth

第五部分 （書面表達）（One possible version）
In modern society, drugs are becoming a more and more serious problem in the world. The trade of drugs is widespread, which costs up to $800 billion every year.
As we all know, drugs do great harm to our health, even causing people to die at an early age. Meanwhile, it directly contributes to the happening of crimes. But to our sadness, more and more young people begin taking drugs.
As is shown on the chart above, 30% of the teenagers taking drugs are cheated into doing it, and 50% are driven by curiosity. Another 15% just seek excitements or try to get rid of their anxieties. The rest try it for some other reasons.
In order to protect us students from drugs, what should we do? I think, we should be careful to make friends and stay away from those who always behave badly. Also, it’s very important for us to lead a healthy lifestyle and hold positive attitudes towards life. Do remember that trying drugs out of curiosity is very dangerous.

What happened to me that day is just unbelievable. The first thing to go wrong is that all the parking spaces were taken. We had to park on the grass and hoped that we would not get a parking ticket. When I got to the admissions office, there was already a long line of students waiting. By the time it was my turn, two of the courses I needed were filled and I had to go back to my adviser and make out a whole new timetable. Although I did sign up for all my courses, I missed lunch. The next thing to go wrong is that the bookstore has sold out one of the required textbooks. As I was leaving, I wondered what else could possibly happen, then I saw a policeman standing beside my car and writing out a ticket.

A
John had been on the road visiting clients for more than three weeks. He couldn't wait to get back to Ohio to see his wife and children. It was coming on Mother's Day, and he usually tried to make it "back home", but this year he was just too tired. He was in a small town just outside of Little Rock when he drove by a flower shop. He said to himself, "I know what I will do, I'll send Mom some roses."
He went into the small shop and saw a young man talking to the clerk. "How many roses can I get for six dollars, madam?" the boy asked. The clerk was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with carnations.
"No. I have to have roses." He said, "My mom was sick so much last year and I didn't get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that's her favorite." He was firm.
The clerk looked up at John and was just shaking her head. Something inside of John was touched by the boy's voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. John had been blessed in his business, and he looked at the clerk and silently mouthed he would pay for the boy's roses.
The clerk looked at the young man and said, "OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for six dollars." The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran from the store. It was worth the extra thirty-five dollars just to see that kind of excitement.
John ordered his own flowers and had the clerk be sure that delivery would include a note telling his mother how much he loved her. As he drove away from the shop, he was feeling very good. He caught a light about two blocks from the shop. As he waited at the light, he saw the young boy walking down the sidewalk. He watched him cross the street and enter a park through two huge gates. Suddenly he realized it wasn't a park. It was a cemetery(公墓. He could see the young man turn there by gate and walk along the fence.
The light changed, and John slowly crossed the crossing. He pulled over and on an impulse(沖動之下) got out and began to follow the boy down the fence line. John was on the sidewalk, thirty or forty steps behind the boy, who walked inside the cemetery fence. The young man stopped by a small monument and went on his knees. He carefully laid the roses on the tomb and began to sob. John felt like an intruder but he couldn't leave. He stared at the little boy's trembling body and listened to his silent crying.
As he cried, he heard the young man speak, "Mommy, oh Mommy, why didn't I tell you how much I love you? Why didn't I tell you one more time? Jesus, please, find my mommy. Tell my Mommy I love her."
John turned, tears in his eyes, and walked back to his car. He drove quickly to the flower shop and told her he would take the flowers personally. He wanted to be sure and tell his mother one more time just how much he loved her.

An Iraqi reporter called President George W. Bush a "dog" and threw his shoes at him on Sunday, staining a farewell visit to Baghdad which was meant to mark greater security in Iraq after years of bloody conflict, Reuters reported. "It's like going to a political assembly and have people yell at you. It's a way for people to draw attention," Bush said. Bush joked, saying that all he can report was that it was a size 10 shoe, then calmly took questions.
A new United Nations report says nearly two million children die each year because they have no access to clean water. The 2006 Human Development Report, released Thursday in South Africa, says most of the deaths are caused by diarrhea and dysentery brought on by dirty water.
The report's leading author, Kevin Watkins, said that the reason behind the water crisis is not a shortage of water, but a lack of will On the part of governments to provide water to people: The report calls on the international community to do more to help solve the problem by doubling annual contributions for water and cleanness.
Indian police say they have found four bombs on a train in the eastern city of Kolkata (formerly known as Calcutta). Authorities described the bombs as crude(土制的). They were discovered during a security check before the train was scheduled to leave for the holy Hindu town of Tarakeswar. There has been no claim of responsibility for the explosive devices.
The U.S. Navy is warning ships to stay away from the coast of Somalia after a series ot pirate (海盜) attacks there. The U.S. Maritime Liaison Office in Bahrain says that, although ships belonging to U.S. are operating in the area, they cannot control every ship that passes the east coast of Somalia. The office is urging merchant ships to stay at least 200 nautical miles off Somalia. Pirates have attacked at least eight ships in the area this year. On Saturday, pirates tried but failed to hijack(劫持) a boat carrying food to Somalia for the United Nations World Food Program. The United Nations is calling for international action against the rampant(猖獗的) piracy off Somalia's coast, saving it threatens further aid deliveries to the country.
61. From the news above, we can say that the United Nations wants _____________ .
A. to launch a war against Somalia
B. to call for more international contributions for water and cleanness in Africa

D. Bush not to visit Iraq again for the security

Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live, we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.
Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication, and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the main factors of current society. Two things, above others, have caused the extreme growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission(傳輸) and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed(失去優勢) by international news.
No longer is the possession of information confined(局限于) to a privileged minority. In the last century, the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago, people used to go to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a program that is being channeled into millions of homes.
Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing, educating and entertaining.
Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the vast modern network of communication is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.
64. In the first paragraph the writer stresses the ________ of face-to-face contact in social setting.
A. performance B. usefulness C. limitation D. means
65. It is implied in the passage that ____________.
A. local news used to be the only source of information
B. local news still takes a significant place
C. national news is becoming more popular
D. international news is the fastest transmitted news
66. Which of the following statements is NOT correct?
A. To possess information used to be privileged.
B. Public libraries have replaced private libraries.
C. Communication means more than transmission.
D. Information influences ways of life and thinking.
A moment later I heard my uncle calling me, and found the two men on the road together. The captain then addressed me as if I was his equal, which was very pleasing to a young fellow like me.
"Sir," said he, "Mr. Balfour tells me great things of you, and I like your looks. I wish I was staying here longer so that we might become friends. But we'll make the most of the short time that we have. You must come on board my brig(雙桅船) for half an hour and have a drink with me."
Now, I cannot describe how eager 1 was to see the inside of a ship. But I was not going to put myself in danger, and I told him my uncle and I had an appointment with a lawyer.
"Yes," said he, "he told me of that. But, you see, the boat will set you on shore farther along, near Rankeillor's house." And here he suddenly leaned down and whispered in my ear: "Take care; the old devil(惡魔) has evil plans. Come on board till I can have a Word with you."
Then, passing his arm through mine, he continued aloud, as he set off towards his boat: "Now what can I bring you from Carolina? Any friend of Mr. Balfour can ask for what he likes. A roll of tobacco? Indian feather work? A wild beast's skin? A stone pipe? A mocking-bird that cries just like a cat? Make your choice and give your order."
By this time we were beside his boat and he was helping me in. I did not dream of refusing. I thought (like a fool) that 1 had found a friend and helper, and I was looking forward to seeing the ship. As soon as we were all in our places the boat was pushed off and began to move over the water. I was so delighted with this new experience that I hardly understood what the captain said, and must have answered him without thinking.
As soon as we were alongside, Hoseason ordered a rope and chair to be sent down, declaring that he and I must be the first to go on board. I was lifted into the air and set down again on the deck(甲板), where the captain stood waiting for me and immediately slipped his arm under mine. I stood there, rather confused and perhaps a little afraid, but delighted with the strange things all around me, while the captain pointed out some of the strangest and told me their names and uses.
And then I saw that my uncle was not with us.
I felt I was lost. With all my strength, I tore myself out of the captain's grasp and ran to the side of the ship. Yes, there was the ship being rowed back to the shore, with my uncle sitting in it. I gave a wild cry-so loud that it rang out over the harbor, and my uncle turned around and showed me a face full of cruelty and terror.
That was the last thing I saw. Already strong hands had been pulling me back fromthe ship's side, and now lightning seemed to strike me. I saw a great flash of fire, and fell unconscious.
67. This passage is most probably taken from _________.
A. a voyage magazine B. a literature novel
C. a science fiction D. a newspaper report
68. Rankeillor, in the fourth paragraph, is perhaps ___________.
A. a lawyer B. a devil C. a captain D. a house

B. the author fell unconscious because of the flash of lightning
C. the uncle most probably had participated in the evil plan

A record 2.3 billion passenger trips will be taken in China during the upcoming Lunar New Year period, the country% most important holiday, Chinese media said on Thursday.
A record 188 million people will take to the nation's railway system, 2 billion road trips will be taken and 24 million will take holiday-related flights in January and February, the China Daily said, in what is the world's biggest annual migration.
The yearly migration is marked by chaotic scenes as masses of Chinese desperate to return home overcrowded the nation's transport system, AFP said.
The official Chinese New Year holiday for 2009 falls on January 26, earlier than most years .
However, the travel rush usually begins up to two weeks before that, and will last 40 days beginning from Jan 11 to Feb 19.
Earlier this year, the chaos was dramatically mixed with unusually serious winter ice storms that spread suffering across a huge land of the country just as the migration was getting under way.
Citing(引述) the government's main economic planning agency, the China Daily said 2009 could see more chaos as this Chinese New Year follows closely after the Western New Year on January 1. Many college students and other people typically travel just before or after the Western New Year and the upcoming holidays could see both migrations overcrowding the transport system at the same time, it said.
People's Daily Online launched an online survey titled "What problem are you most concerned about for the upcoming 2009 Spring Festival railway transport peak season?" on December 9.
