LOS ANGELES,July8（Xinhua）——Michael Jackson's burial remained a mystery as part of his brain is being held by the coroner's （驗(yàn)尸官）office for tests, an official said.
The late superstar's body was transported to an undisclosed place Tuesday after a star-crowded public memorial service at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles. It is still unclear where and when the singer's body will be buried.
Ed Winter, assistant chief coroner said families often wait for mass of brain part to be returned before permitted burial. He said he understood no burial would take place immediately although he was not aware of instructions from the Jackson family. The coroner's office released a death certificate(證明) for Jackson Tuesday that listed the cause of death as "delay."
Michael Jackson，the King of Pop，was born on August 29，1958，and died on June 25，2009 after being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital from his rented house when his heart stopped functioning properly. A police investigation into his death is focusing on the possibility that his death was caused by a medication overdose（過量）, including possibly Diprivan, a powerful sedative (鎮(zhèn)靜劑)usually used for general anesthesia（麻醉）.
68. Why hasn’t Jackson’s burial been held? ______
A. The place to bury him isn’t sure.
B. His family didn’t give instructions
C. Part of his body is still being tested
D. The time to bury him is still being  discusseded
69. The direct cause of the super popstar’s death is ______
A. that his heart stopped beating
B. due to a powerful sedative used for anesthesia
C. overdose of some medicine
D. the delay of being rushed to the hospital
70. Which statement is true? ______
A. No one can bury the body of one’s beloved without the government’s instructions.
B. Many popstars were involved in Jackson’s memorial service.
C. The police doubted whether Jackson was murdered.
D. Jackson died at home.
71. We can infer from the passage that______
A. The burial can’t happen without a death certificate.
B. Jackson’s family are skeptical (懷疑的)about Jackson’s death
C. Jackson was possibly murdered by his doctor
D. The brain part of all people’s body must be transported to be tested

Maybe you think you will never be a top student. However, this is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how.
1. Plan your time in a careful way. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First, you time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of(利用) class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means you don’t need to work as much later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes and the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show how much knowledge you have learned about a subject. They help you remember what you have learned. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.

We had been living our valley for sixteen months when we first realized the dangers that could exist. It was the year when the storms came early, before the calendar even hinted at winter, even before November was out.  71 
Soon snow began to fall. Within a day it lay some 15 centimeters deep. It almost completely blocked our lane and made the streamside path slippery and dangerous. But on the neighboring heights the snow was much deeper and stayed for longer. Up there the wind blasted fiercely. Deeply in our valley we felt only sudden gusts of wind: trees swayed but the branches held firm.
And yet we knew that there was reason for us to worry. The snow and wind were certainly inconvenient but they did not really trouble us greatly.   72  It reminded us of what could have occurred if circumstances had been different, if the flow of water from the hills had not, many years before, been controlled, held back by a series of dams.
  73 Day after day, we watched furious clouds pile up high over the hills to the west. Sinister grey clouds extended over the valleys. They twisted and turned, rising eastwards and upwards, warning of what was to come. We had seen enough of the sky; now we began to watch the river, which every day was becoming fuller and wilder.
The river seemed maddened as the waters poured almost horizontally down to its lower stretches.  74 
It was far deeper than we’d ever seen it so near our home, lunging furiously at its banks. For three days we prayed that it would stay below its wall.   75 
A．It was the river, the Ryburn, which normally flowed so gently, that threatened us most.
B．The great power of all this water prevents us from believing ourselves to be completely safe in our home.
C．In a short time the snow started to melt.
D．Just a couple of meters from our cottage, the stream seemed wild beneath the bridge.
E．Our prayer were answered as the dam held and the waters began to subside.
F．They grew so strong that we couldn’t control it.
G．Until then, we had felt safe and sheltered in our valley.

When women sit together to watch a movie on TV, they usually talk simultaneously(同時(shí)地) about a variety of subjects, including children, men, careers and what’s happening in their lives. When groups of men and women watch a movie together, the men usually end up telling the women to shut up. Men can either talk or watch the screen --- they can’t do both --- and they don’t understand that women can. Besides, women consider that the point of all getting together is to have a good time and develop relationships --- not just to sit there like couch potatoes staring at the screen.
During the ad breaks, a man often asks a woman to explain the plot and tell him where the relationship between the characters is going. He is unable, unlike women, to read the subtle(細(xì)微的) body language signals that reveal(顯露) how the characters are feeling emotionally. Since women originally spent their days with the other women and children in the group, they developed the ability to communicate successfully in order to maintain relationships. For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For men, to talk is to relate the facts.
Men see the telephone as a communication tool for sending facts and information to other people, but a woman sees it as a means of bonding. A woman can spend two weeks on vacation with her girlfriend and, when she returns home, telephone the same girlfriend and talk for another two hours.
There is no convincing evidence that social conditioning, the fact that girls’ mothers talked them more, is the reason why girls talk more than boys. Psychiatrist Dr Michael Lewis, author Social Behavior and Language Acquisition, conducted experiments that found mothers talked to and looked at baby girls more often than baby boys. Scientific evidence shows parents hold the brain bias of their children. Since a girl’s brain is better organized to send and receive speech, we therefore talk to them more. Consequently, mothers who try to talk to their sons are usually pointed to receive only short grunts(哼聲) in reply.
68．While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they _______ .
A．a(chǎn)re afraid of awkward silence with their families and friends
B．can both talk and watch the screen at the same time
C．think they can have a good time and develop relationships
D．have to explain the plot and body language to their husbands
69．After a vacation with her girlfriend, a woman would talk to her again on the phone for hours in order to_______ .
A．experience the happy time again
B．keep a close tie with her
C．recommend her a new scenic spot
D．remind her of something forgotten
70．The underlined word "bonding" in the 3rd paragraph probably means__________
A．long hours’ conversation      B．close personal relationship
C．frequent communication      D．sharing past experiences
71．What does the author want to tell us most?
A．Women’s brains are better organized for language and communication
B．Women love to talk because they are more sociable than men.
C．Men do not like talking because they rely more on facts.
D．Social conditioning is the reason why women love talking.

Last month, the president of the Maldives, Mohamed Nasheed, held an underwater meeting. The purpose of the ocean floor conference? To highlight the effects of global warming on his island nation.
The Maldives, located in the Indian Ocean, is the lowest-lying country on Earth. Melting glaciers and polar ice are causing sea levels to rise, putting the Maldives and other low-lying areas at risk of being swallowed by the sea within the next 100 years.
What can be done? Scientists and leaders from 190 nations will try to figure that out at the United Nations climate change conference next month. The main goal of the meeting is to come up with a new climate agreement for 2012 and beyond. That is when the existing plan, the Kyoto Protocol (《京都議定書》), will expire. The agreement was created in Kyoto, Japan, in 1997. Since then, it has been ratified (正式批準(zhǔn)) by 190 nations. The countries promised to limit the amount of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, that they produced each year.
The debate over who should cut greenhouse emissions (排放) has been going on for years. The US has been hesitant to reduce emissions unless fast-growing nations such as China and India also reduce their use of fossil fuels. In recent months, China has taken steps to be greener. But India has been unwilling to change. It argues that it is unfair for rich nations to ask poorer countries to cut down on emissions.
While world leaders work on a plan in Copenhagen, there are many things you can do to help the planet. You can save fuel by walking or biking instead of riding in a car. You can start a recycling program in your community. You can plant trees. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air and give off oxygen.
64. The underlined word “expire” in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.
A. cause trouble            B. go into effect            C. come to an end         D. gain support
65. According to the passage, limiting greenhouse emissions _____.
A. has been a controversial question
B. is well performed in the Maldives
C. will make poor countries poorer
D. means banning carbon dioxide emissions
66. What does the author suggest？
A. Like the Maldives, other island countries should take action.
B. Both the US and India should cut greenhouse emissions.
C. World leaders should focus more on climate change.
D. Everyone should get involved in cutting greenhouse emissions.

Americans hope Two-Thousand-Two will be happier than Two-Thousand-One. New York suffered terrible losses in the terrorist attacks on September Eleventh. However, the city is continuing with its New Year's Eve traditions in Times Square for the ninety-seventh year.
The tradition began in Nineteen-Oh-Four. That year, the owners of the building at Number One Times Square held a party on top of the building. Today, the New Year's Ball falls from the top of the same building. The ball contains thousands of pieces of lighted cut glass. It looks like burning stars as it falls through the darkness. When it reaches the ground, people in Times Square dance and sing. They throw tiny pieces of colorful paper into the air. Many people in the United States also watch this event on television.
Other cities also have New Year celebrations. For example, Chicago has a fireworks show. The fireworks are launched from the Navy Pier, a land area that extends into Lake Michigan. Some people like to watch the fireworks from a boat on the lake. The boat serves a special meal on New Year's Eve. People drink a special wine called Champagne to celebrate the clock striking midnight.
Many young people in Chicago celebrate New Year's Eve at the Lincoln Park Zoo. Children wear funny hats as they wish the animals a good New Year.
Many other Americans celebrate New Year's Eve with parties at home. Or they celebrate at public eating and drinking places. These events are usually noisy. People shout and sing. They often blow on small noise-makers when the New Year arrives at midnight. They kiss their husband or wife or the person they are with. They dance to broadcast music, records or live bands.
Some people drink too much alcohol at New Year's Eve celebrations. This can lead to tragic results if a person drinks too much and then drives a car. The National Safety Council says hundreds of people die in road accidents during the holiday.
In recent years, the danger of accidents has resulted in a new tradition called the "designated driver." One person among a group of friends drinks little or no alcohol during New Year's Eve celebrations. Then this designated driver can safely drive the other people home. Many American cities also offer free taxi service on New Year's Eve to take people home safely.
Other Americans observe the coming of the New Year at events without alcohol. More than two-hundred American cities hold these First Night celebrations. Artists in Boston, Massachusetts, started the tradition of First Night celebrations in Nineteen-Seventy-Six. They wanted to observe the coming of a New Year. But they did not want to hold noisy drinking parties. So they organized music, art and other events to observe the holiday.
66.What does the tradition refer to in the passage?
A. The celebration of New Year’s Eve.        B. The New Year’s Ball.
B. The fireworks show.                    D. The parties at home.
67.Why does the New Year’s Ball contain pieces of lighted cut glass?
A. To attract people in the square.            B. To light the Times Square
C. To give people atmosphere of a festival     D. To make people interested in the festival.
68. What is the passage mainly about?
A. To hope people remember the terrible suffering in the terrorist attacks
B. The colorful life of Americans.
C. The hopes of Americans in the coming new year.
D. The celebrating activities on New Year’s Eve in America.
69. How do Americans feel to the coming new year after the terrorist attacks?
A. sad, excited and hopeful             B. sad, excited and happy
C. happy, excited and hopeful           D. complicated, excited and hopeful.
70. The change people hope most to see in their tradition is __________
A. Less noise                        B. Drinking less alcohol
C. Fewer road accidents                D. Less tragedy
