The spread of worsening international financial crisis has seriously affected world economic growth and stability. The ongoing financial crisis is rarely seen in history. Countries and organizations have taken measures in response, and we hope these measures will produce the desired results soon. Countries in Asia and Europe are an important force for international financial stability and world economic growth. I suggest that we make greater efforts in the following aspects:
First, countries should run their own affairs well. In the face of the crisis, it is important for leaders to act in the fundamental and long-term interests of the people and use necessary monetary and regulatory tools to regain market confidence as soon as possible and maintain economic growth.
Second, set up coordination(調(diào)和) and cooperation among governments. The financial departments, central banks and financial regulators around the world should closely follow the development of the crisis and study its trend and impact.
Third, strengthen regional financial dialogue and cooperation. Members of the Eurozone have reached agreement on the basic principles to tackle the financial crisis. We in Asia are also exploring the possibility of expanding the size of bilateral currency swap(hui  互惠外匯信貸)arrangements under the 10+3 framework .
Fourth, push forward the reform of the international monetary and financial systems. The present crisis has exposed the weaknesses in the existing international financial system and governance structure. It important to do three things in this regard: first, increase the say and representation of developing countries in international financial organizations; second, expand the space of the regulation of the international financial system, and third, establish a reasonable global financial rescue mechanism(機(jī)制).
56. According to the passage, members of the Eurozone reached agreement on _______.
A.how to deal with the financial crisis
B.how to regain market confidence

A. to closely follow the development of the crisis.
B. to study the trend and impact of the financial crisis.
C. to do their own business well.
D. to increase the say and representation of developing countries in international financial organizations.
58. Which word has the same meaning with the underlined word maintain ?
A. mainly        B. keep         C. increase         D. decrease
59.According to the passage, which of the following sentence is false?
A.Global issues included energy, food, the environment etc.

C.Facing the crisis, the first thing the countries should do is to do their own business well.

Most people think the first pies were made by early Romans. They may have learned about pie making from the Greeks. These pies were sometimes made in"reeds (蘆葦葉)", which were used for the purpose of holding the filling (餡 ), and were not eaten.
The Romans spread the word about pies around Europe and the word"pie"became a popular word in the 14th century. The first pie recipe (食譜) was also published by the Romans.
Pies first appeared in England as early as the twelfth century. The early pies were mostly meat pies. There was actually more crust(皮)than filling. Often these pies were made from fowl ( 家禽) and the fowl's legs were left to hang over the side of the dish and used as handles. Fruit pies were probably first made in the 1500s. It is said that Queen Elizabeth I made the first cherry pie.
Pie came to America with the first English settlers. The early settlers cooked their pies in long narrow pans. As in the Roman times, the early American pie crusts were often not eaten, but simply used to hold the filling during baking(烘焙).
Over the years, pie has become what it is today --- "the most traditional American dessert". Pie has become so much a part of American culture that we now often use the phrase "as American as apple pie".
51. Which people might probably first grasp the skill to make pies?
A. The Romans.     B. The Greeks.    C. The Englishmen.    D. The Americans.
52. Which of the following is NOT true about pies?
A. English settlers brought pies to America.
B. Early Romans ate not only pies but also the crusts.
C. The Romans first published pie recipe.
D. The word “pie ” became popular because of the Romans` efforts.
53. What can best show pies have become part of American culture?
A. Americans use long narrow pans to cook pies.
B. People use "as American as apple pie" to show something about American characteristics.
C. Americans don't eat crusts but use them to hold the filling during baking.
D. Pies are the most traditional American dessert.
54. The best title of this passage is "______________".
A . The History of Pies                        B. Pies, the Delicious Food

Iodine (碘)– rich salt was the hottest item on Chinese shelves Thursday, being snapped up (搶購) by shoppers after rumors spread that iodine intake could help protect one’s body from radiation damage, although the authorities have confirmed that the nuclear crisis in Japan had not affected China.
Rumors also spread about radioactive substances being leaked into ocean water that could pollute Chinese coasts.
The crazy buying has occurred nationwide, from the supposedly easily – harmed eastern coastal provinces to regions far – inland such as Xinjiang.
Supermarkets and convenience stores began reporting the lack of salt stocks from early Wednesday, with all salt sold out at many Carrefour and Wal – Mart stores. Some online clothes stores have begun offering salt as a bonus to customers.
Relevant government departments were trying hard to stop this round of panic – buying.
The Ministry of Health deniedthe rumor that eating more iodine – rich salt could repair damage from radiation, saying that it is technically impossible to absorb enough iodine for radiation prevention from eating salt.
The government urges the local market authorities to keep all salt sellers in check and to prevent storing and overpricing.
Also the spokesman of the government said that China’s seawater, as a source of salt, would not be affected by the nuclear crisis, as it would be impossible for radioactive substances to reach Chinese waters via the eastward ocean current.
“Reasons behind the salt rush include unclear information on the development of the nuclear crisis and terrifying media reports of the severity of a possible complete meltdown. If the fear of a Chernobyl – like catastrophe cannot be ended, the crazy buying will likely continue,” said a professor from Beijing University.
Beijing urged Tokyo Thursday to better release information at the Fukushima plant.

A.The rumor caused by the unclear information.
B.The shortage of iodine – rich salt in stores.

C.the customers prefer to buy salt on line       D.the salt from the on-line store is free
【小題3】It’s quite clear that some sellers want to store iodine-rich salt is to _______.
A.increase the sales of related productsB.raise the price of products online
C.make more money from itD.meet the needs of the market
【小題4】Why is it impossible for radioactive substances to reach Chinese waters?
A.The ocean is really too large.B.The distance from Japan is too far.
C.The nuclear pollution is not so serious.D.The ocean current is eastward.

Tree of Life: the incredible biodiversity of life on earth Rochelle Strauss Illustrated by Margot Thompson 2004,
Toronto: Kids Can Press, $ 16. 95.
Grades 3 to 6.

1. This picture book explores the life of a tree that has deep roots, long arms, and many children. She provides
shelter for many animals and bears fruit. The author uses colorful, simple, yet detailed watercolor illustrations
to convey her words. The charming pictures show the many aspects in the life of a tree down to the caterpillars that eat the leaves. It is good for pre-school children.
2. This charming picture book highlights the life of a garden, from planting seeds to harvesting. With the
narrator as guide, the reader is led through a variety of free verse and occasionally rhymed poems that fill in the
story of a garden and its inhabitants. The pictures, delightful watercolors in bright pastels, add to the whimsical
feel of the poems. Young readers will certainly enjoy this fun and fanciful text.
3. This is a story from 1956 which introduces a little boy who likes to go fishing with a tree limb, a worm, and
a pin. Although he never catches anything, on this particular day he finally does hook three big ones, but the little one gets away. The boy pulls them home in his wagon and his mother cooks them for supper. The swinging
rhythms of the text and the good humor evident in the illustrations remain fun for the youngest readers.
4. This useful, attractive, oversize volume uses its height well, employing a tree metaphor to show the earth's
various kinds of life and how all living things, from bacteria to the largest mammals, are related. Each. spread
covers one branch of the animal kingdom. To make the enormity of species understandable, Strauss equates
individual species( e. g.,10,000 bacteria) with one leaf on the tree.
5.This is a story about how a grandfather teaches his eager granddaughter to catch speckled trout from the
stream in springtime. After a whole day on the lake, only Grandpa is lucky. The next morning the young
fisherman hurries to the dock alone, and soon she hooks the catch of a lifetime. Young readers will appreciate
this story that celebrates the special bond between the older and younger generation, while brilliant watercolor
illustrations capture the beauty of the natural world.
