2.Do you have any skiing equipment you no longer need?A ski school in the far north of India could put it to good use.
In March we published a photo story about the extraordinary Zsnskar region in northern India,which is cut off from the outside world for more than seven months of the year,and only accessible (可通行的)via a frozen river.We also included information about the limited use of skiing in the region and the recent creation of the Zanskar Ski School:"Despite the difficulties of travelling through the region when the snow comes,skiing hasn't traditionally been used as a means of transport by the locals,largely because trees don't grow here,so there is little in the way of raw materials from which to make skis.In 1995,a group of British scientists in the region noticed the lack of skis and one of them returned to set up the Zanskar Ski School in Padam.The school provides lessons for a small fee and rents skis to the local people.Among the benefits that the school hopes to bring are improved education-children often find it difficult to get to school through the deep snow-and the possibility of offering ski tours to tourists in the future.So far,more than 300 local people have received training,and local doctors and  policemen regularly borrow skis."
But what we weren't able to include in the article is that the ski school is always on the look out for old skiing equipment-particularly of a size suitable for children-and,I thought.Now the European ski season is drawing to a close,there might be a few of you out there who have some old equipment you'd like to see go to a good home.If that's the ease you can get in touch with the school via their website www.zanskarski school.org.

56.What's the purpose in writing the text?D
A.To raise money to develop this area
B.To attract more tourists to the area
C.To appeal to more locals to attend the school
D.To ask people to give away their skis to the school
57.Who would be the most helpful to the school now?A
A.People having old skiing equipment.     B.Students in the Zanskar Ski School.
C.Locals in Zanskar region.               D.Tavellers enjoying skiing.
58.What can be the best title for the text?B
A.An extraordinary region in India   B.A home for old skis
C.A good means of transport          D.A popular sport-skiing.

Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame.He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited.In the afternoon,the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers,and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full.What was the result?World-wild fame,and a name remembered today.

19.What science story once told about other worlds far away is now a fact.Astronomers prove another solar (of the sun) system like ours with some planets in the constellation Andromeda (仙女座).
Geoffrey Marcy is a professor of astronomy and physics at San Francisco State University.He says,"What we have found now is indeed a fully-grown system of planets around the star Upsilon Andromeda.It appears to have three planets,one close in,one at a middle distance,and one farther out.The star is slightly larger than our sun.The planets are huge,like our Jupiter(木星)."
Marcy's partner in this research,Debra Fischer,describes the solar system,"Here are the inner planet that goes around every 46 days,the middle planet that goes around every 242 days,and then the outer planet that goes around every three and a half to four years."
The sun of that solar system,Upsilon Andromeda,is so near and bright that it can be seen by using no equipment during summer and fall.
For twelve years astronomers searched the skies in the belief that if our sun has planets around it,surely others do,too.Geoffrey Marcy says,"And then starting three and a half years ago,we began finding for the first time planets singly,one planet here around one star…"
"When I look up at the stars now at night,I can imagine easily that every one of them has planets around them,"says Debra Fischer.
It was a tremble (shaking) in the star that led Marcy to the planets."The star rocks around because of the gravity of the planet as a dog owner gets pulled around by a little dog."
Can they support life?We don't know,because present technology is not advanced enough to determine what the planets are made of.That,Marcy says,is astronomy's next challenge.
32.What's the relation between Andromeda (A),Upsilon Andromeda system (U) and the mentioned three planets (P)?D
                  
33.According to Debra Fischer,in the new solar system,B.
A.the larger a planet is,the shorter it takes to go around the star
B.the farther a planet is from the star,the longer it takes to go around the star
C.it takes all the planets around three and a half to four years to go around the star
D.the planets move around the star at the same speed
34.What led to Marcy's discovery of the planets?C
A.That any planet has gravity.
B.That a dog owner was pulled by his dog.
C.The tremble of Upsilon Andromeda.
D.That any star has its planets.
35.We can infer (推斷) that the scientists areA.
A.to find out whether the planets can support life
B.to find means to travel to the planets
C.to communicate with the living beings on the planets
D.soon to be able to answer the question.

6.Christmas is a season of joy and cheer,but it may be unlucky for bird owners who don't keep an eye on their birds.Christmas is a time when birds would get injured more easily.To help make sure that your pet has a merry holiday this year,follow the tips below.
Be careful when you are decorating (裝飾) your house.Keep your birds away from any lights or decorations,and above all,the Christmas tree.A bite to a wire or light bulb might cause burns,and the glass decorations might hurt the birds.
Keep your birds away from gift wrapping materials.The inks used to print them could often be harmful.Besides,ribbons (絲帶) may get caught around your bird's neck,legs and toes.This can cause serious injuries or even death to them.
Don't share the holiday meal.Birds will feel encouraged when their owners share food with them,but many holiday dishes are bad for the birds'health.So you'd better prepare a separate meal for your birds.
You may let your birds drink some juice,but never wine.It can be deadly to birds.
Birds can get stressed easily if they are among sights,sounds,and people that they are not familiar with.Leave your birds in a quiet area of your home until the party is over.
With a little care and attention to these suggestions,you and your pet will stay safe and happy.

3.Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp
Everyone is forgetful,but as we age,we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit-and that can be a very annoying thing.(36)F Read on for some techniques worth trying.
1.(37)A
People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (老年性癡呆癥),according to a recent study.(38)E Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better.In other words,keep your brain looking forward.
2.Go for a walk.
Mildly raised glucose(葡萄糖)levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels.In fact,exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain.(39)G
3.Learn something new.
Take a Spanish class online,join a drawing club,or learn to play cards.A study found that mental stimulation limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind.But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time.(40)C Or you can just go dancing with your friends.

A.Focus on the future.
B.This can be especially harmful to the aged.
C.It should be something like learning gardening.
D.So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.
E.But don't worry if our schedule isn't filled with life-changing events.
F.Luckily,research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.
G.In other words,when you take care of your body,you take care of your brain.
