When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send e-mail that gets read to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software, which is free, can be downloaded at www. Facemail.com.
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale? And the company is talking with Whirlpool about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I’m a fan. But Facemail should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when you’ve got psycho-mail.

II. 閱讀理解（Reading comprehension）（共20小題；選擇題5小題，每小題1分；非選擇題15小題，每小題2分，計35分）
A) 選擇題：閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)文意從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C 和D）中，選出能回答所提問題或完成所給句子的最佳選項。(Read the following passage which is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the passage.)
Mexic Past and Present
Hundreds of years ago, Native-American tribes lived in Mexico. The Aztecs built beautiful cities. They had a calendar (歷法) and a written  language. However, the Spanish destroyed the Aztecs in 1521. For the next 300 years, Spain ruled over Mexico. That's why Mexicans speak Spanish.
Every September 16 the Mexican people hold a celebration in Mexico City, their country's capital. It is their Independence Day. On that date in 1821 they told Spain they would no longer be ruled.
Breaking free from Spain caused a war. When it was over, the Mexicans had their own government. They made their own laws.
Today America and Mexico are friends, but it wasn't always that way. President James Polk wanted America to reach from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. He tried to buy what is now the American southwest from Mexico. Mexico would not sell. So from 1846 to 1848 Mexico and America fought a war to ascertain where their borders would be. When the war ended, Mexico had lost a lot of land. Now the Rio Grande River forms the border between the two nations. America is on the north side of the river. Mexico is on the south side.
Mexico has mountains and a hot, dry climate. Crops can grow on only a small part of the land. Still, Mexicans grow much of the coffee, oranges, and sugar used in the US. Mexicans have influenced building styles in southwestern US and added words such as patio and canton to American English. Americans also enjoy eating many Mexican foods like burritos, tacos, tortillas, and tamales.
46. According to the passage, what happened second on a historical timeline?
A. Mexicans declared their independence from Spain.
B. The Spanish ruled Mexico.
C. The Aztecs lived in Mexico.
D. Americans fought a war with Mexico.
47. The passage says that President Polk wanted ________.
A. the US to expand its borders to the Pacific Ocean
B. Mexico to change its Independence Day to July 4th
C. Mexico to become one of the states of the Union
D. Americans to adopt the Mexican language
48. Another word for the underlined word “ascertain” is ________.
A. inspect      B. discover     C. change      D. determine
49. Mexicans have the following influences on America EXCEPT ________.
A. building styles         B. vocabulary
C. clothes                 D. food
50. Before the Aztecs were conquered, these Native Americans probably ________.
A. didn't speak Spanish     
B. couldn't read or write any language
C. didn't have tools          
D. didn't understand the concept of time

C
China’s emergence has made it “hugely important” for American students to be fluent in Mandarin according to Margaret Spellings, US education secretary.
Spellings made the remark after she signed a new memorandum of understanding with China’s ministry of education late last week to expand language and academic exchanges.
“It’s in their［US students’］ interest to come and learn from and about China and the Chinese people.” she said. “You can buy in any language but you have to sell in the language of the buyer.”
Research supported by the US state department has found the number of Americans studying in China jumped 35 percent in 2004—05 over the previous university year. Spellings said her agency would work to continue the trend.
According to the Chinese ministry，10, 340 Americans studied in China last year, a smaller cohort than the 54, 080 from South Korea or 18, 870 from Japan.
The Bush administration plans to spend $114m in 2007 to fund its national security language initiative, which aims to increase drastically the number of Chinese, Arabic, Russian, Hindi and Farsi speakers in the US.
The US state department estimates that 200, 000 Americans study abroad each year, a significantly smaller group than the 550, 000 students from around the world who go to the states for an education.
Of those studying in the US, 62, 580, or roughly 11 percent of the total，came from Chinese mainland this past school year. China is second only to India, which sent 76, 500 students to the US, as a source of students for US schools．
Spellings said that the Bush administration was now working to make visa application procedures “easier and more transparent” to encourage international students.
59. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. China’s emergence                 B. A research from the US
C. Learning Mandarin                 D. US attaches importance to Mandarin speakers
60. The underlined words “her agency” in the fourth paragraph refer to ____.
A. her personal agency               B. the US Department of Education
C. the US state department             D. the Bush administration
61. Which country did the largest number of students who studied in China last year come from according to the passage?
A. India.         B. South Korea.      C. Japan.           D. The US.
62. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It is China’s emergence that has made it important for American students to learn Chinese.
B. The US is taking measures to encourage more international students.
C. The national security language initiative in the US aims to increase the number of international students from China, Arabian countries, Russia and so on.
D. The number of American students studying abroad is much smaller than that of students from around the world studying in the States every year.

E
By far the most common difficulty in studying is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work. This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine (規(guī)律性事務(wù)) of study. Many students just do a bit of this subject or that, as the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment.
Few students work to a set timetable. They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it, or would have to change it frequently, since they can never predict from one day to the next what their activities will be.
No doubt some students are more willing to accept a regular routine than others. There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable, and dislike being tied down to a fixed program of work. Many able students state that they work in cycles. When they become interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time. On other days they avoid work completely. It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation to work. Most people over 25 years of age have become used to routine, and the majority of real productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work. The “tough-minded” school doesn’t fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally, under the influence of inspiration.
Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom”. In fact, freedom from control and discipline leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development”. Our society insists on regular habits, timekeeping and punctuality (準時), and whether we like it or not, if we mean to make our way in society, we have to meet its demands.
57．The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is ______.
A．changing from one subject to another
B．the failure to keep to a set timetable of work
C．the unwillingness to follow a systematic plan
D．working on a subject only when one feels like it
58．Which of the following is true?
A．Many students are not interested in using self-controlled timetable.
B．Many students don’t like being told to study to a fixed timetable.
C．Most people of over 25 years of age don’t work to a set timetable.
D．Tough-minded people agree that good job is done naturally
59．The underlined part “as the fit takes them” in paragraph 4 means ______.
A．when they have the energy                   B．when they are in the mood
C．when they feel fit                                D．whey they find conditions are suitable
60．A suitable title for the passage might be ______.
A．Attitudes to Study                                      B．A study Plan
C．The Difficulties in Studying                  D．Study and Self-discipline

If you were a pilot flying a plane, and suddenly the engine failed, would you eject (彈出), or stay in? For a pilot, the choice is very difficult. If he ejects, he is wise, but the plane crashes. If he stays in the plane, he risks his life.
Recently, Chinese Air Force pilot Li Feng, 38, faced this choice during a training exercise. It was March 7 and he was flying a Jian-10 (Flghter-10) at 4,500 meters. A warning appeared on the plane’s computer screen. He realized the plane might fail at any moment.
Li Feng did a quick check of the engine and asked the base if he could return. When the fighter was 7km away from the airport, however, the engine stopped working. The plane began to fall at a speed of 25 meters a second from an altitude of 1,160 meters.
Under Air Force rules fighter pilots may eject if their aircraft loses engine power below 2,000 meters and can’t be restarted. Before Li lost contact with the control tower, the commander in the air base asked him to eject. But Li Feng insisted on having another try.
“I knew where the deadline (to abandon the aircraft) was and was prepared for the ejection, but I decided not to give up unless the fighter was totally out of control,” Li recalled during a recent television interview.
After 104 seconds, Li was able to bring the fighter to a safe landing. The plane only suffered slight damage.
“You are a hero! Congratulations!” Li’s teacher, Xu yongling wrote in a text message to him after the landing. He said Li was a cool-headed pilot and very professional.
Li’s brave and calm act not only saved the 200 million yuan aircraft but also gave him invaluable first-hand experience of dealing with an engine emergency.
For his outstanding performance, the Air Force recently awarded him a gold medal.
小題1:When the engine stopped working, Li Feng _________.
A．was flying a Jian-10 at 4,500 metersB．saw a warning appeared on the plane’s computer screen

小題2:When the fighter plane loses engine power below 2,000 meters, ___________.
A．pilots must restart it as soon as possibleB．pilots should repair it as soon as possible
C．pilots may eject for safetyD．pilots should bring it to a safe landing
小題3:Why didn’t Li Feng give up the plane?
A．Because he had no choice but to stay in the plane.
B．Because the fighter was not totally out of control.
C．Because he didn’t know how to eject.D．Because he wanted to get a gold medal.
小題4:What is the best title for the passage?
