10.Human cloning technology could be used to reserve heart attacks.Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged,and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.
With cloning,infertilecouples could have children.Current treatments for infertility,in terms of percentages,are not very successful.Couples go through physical and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children.Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children.Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.
We should be able to clone the bone marrow(骨髓) for children and adults suffering from leukemia(白血病).This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.
Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind.This new technology promises unprecedented (前所未有的)advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefit begin.

44.What does the underlined word"infertile"(paragraph 2)most probably mean?C
A.with physical and emotional problems
B.short of time and money
C.unable to give birth to children
D.separated from each other for a long time
45.According to the text,one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology is inB.
A.the treatment of mental diseases
B.the reserve of heart diseases
C.the cure of gene-related diseases
D.the bearing of babies
46.According to the writer,the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is thatD.
A.it has brought about benefits so far
B.it may be out of human control
C.people still know little about it
D.people are afraid of such technology.

6.Mystery shopping or a mystery consumer or secret shopper,is a tool used by market research companies,or by companies themselves to gather specific information about services.The mystery consumer's specific identity and purpose is generally not known by the people or organizations being evaluated.Mystery shopping became standard practice by the early l940s.Now it is used in any industry,with the most common venues being retail stores,hotels,movie theaters,restaurants,fast food chains,banks,gas stations,car dealerships,apartments,health clubs and health care facilities.
While gathering information,mystery shoppers usually pretend to be regular shoppers at the store being evaluated.They may be required to take photographs or measurements,return purchases,or count the number of products,seats,people during the visit.They also perform specific tasks such as purchasing a product,asking questions,registering complaints or behaving in a certain way,and then provide details about their experiences.
After the visit,the shopper submits the data collected to the mystery shopping company,which reviews the information,completing quantitative or qualitative statistical reports on the data for the client company.This allows for a comparison on how the stores or restaurants are doing against previously defined criteria.Mystery shopping organizations advise that their research should only be used for employee motivation programs,and punishing or even firing stuff is an inappropriate use of mystery-shopper data.Nevertheless,stories of employers.sacking workers as a direct result of unfavorable mystery shopper feedback are not uncommon.

1.The Medicine For Inflation
For years,prices have risen in China for many reasons.However,inflation (通貨膨脹) has not badly affected people's lives because living standards have improved.Inflation is not an unbeatable beast.In fact,economists from all over the world have found ways to stop or reduce it.There are now several methods of controlling inflation.
Reduce the amount of money being issued
Many experts believe inflation happens because too much money is printed.The more money the central bank issues,the more inflation there is.Therefore,the most important thing to do for any government is to control the amount of money being issued.
Cut down on government spending and increase government income
Over-spending and over-expanding of governments can make inflation worse.Therefore it is helpful to reduce the size of big government bodies,cut down on their spending and pay fewer and smaller subsidies (津貼) to prevent inflation from accelerating.
Slow down the increase of salaries
It seems that giving bigger salaries to workers helps them manage when prices of their shopping are going up.In fact,as salaries increase,the central bank will have to issue more money to pay for the increase.Thus,increasing salaries may not be so good as it sounds.It's like cheating.Salaries should only be increased if workers produce more.
Increase bank interests
Interest increases can make more people put more money into banks.At the same time,enterprises take out fewer loans.Demand for money on the whole is lower.
Keep prices under strict control
Prices can be lowered by setting a ceiling--the highest prices--for most goods and freezing prices on most goods.

63.The word"issue"in Paragraph 3meansB.
A.use      B.print       C.quarrel      D.invent
64.The writer uses"medicine"to stand forA.
A.ways to reduce inflation          B.reasons for inflation
C.something to treat patients       D.prices without control
65.What is probably the best way to reduce inflation?D
A.No money will be issued.
B.Salaries will be reduced.
C.More products will be produced.
D.Prices will be controlled.
66.The article does not mentionDas a way of reducing inflation.
A.controlling prices
B.a(chǎn)djusting bank interests
C.controlling the amount of money being issued
D.improving people's living standards.

So what are the people of Albertsville waiting for?Talk to people in your school,church,or club about adopting part of a street or road.Then get to work!If enough volunteer groups get busy,Albertsville really will shine this spring.

2.Imagine watching a movie,and seated beside you is someone who's texting(發(fā)短信) every 10minutes.It is the most annoying movie experience one can have.Even if the mobile phone is silent,its intermittent( 間歇的) flashes of light are extremely bothersome.Maybe texting once is tolerable(過的去的),more than that means you're not being considerate(體貼的) of others.
Manners are exactly that:basic consideration of those around you.
It's in the movie theater where you see a mix of different personalities,and you don't even have to speak to them,not like at a party.It's where you see how people behave,and most people act as if there is no one else in the movie theater except them.
For instance,the food people bring in.Again,popcorn,nachos(墨西哥玉米片),chips and a drink are standard movie food.What do they have in common?None of them smells.Okay,so buttered popcorn smells,but it smells nice.A burger loaded with onions or fried chicken or even pizza does not smell anywhere near good.So next time,please observe food choices; consider the smell as well.
Getting out of the theater is another thing altogether.Please allow the people in front of you to go ahead of you in moving out of their seats to the aisle.If there is space,you can move forward.Believe it or not,jostling(推撞) happens everywhere,even in supposedly high-end theatre.
Please don't kick the chair in front of you.When you kick the chair in front of you,it bothers the person seated on it.
Lastly,though a little embarrassing,do not remove your shoes in the movie house.Will people ever know it?Yes,by the smell.
Next time you go and enjoy a movie,kindly be considerate to those around you so that they,too,can enjoy the movie.

71.Keeping good manners can be defined asC.
A.keeping silence when seeing film
B.not eating any food
C.showing consideration to others
D.not texting when seeing film
72.Why is silencing your mobile phone not enough when watching a movie?A
A.Because other behavious are also troublesome.
B.Because chatting with each other is also troublesome.
C.Because keeping texting is also troublesome.
D.Because the smell of food is also troublesome.
73.What's in common about the food allowed to be taken to a movie theatre?D
A.The food smells good.
B.The food are not expensive.
C.The food are easy to carry.
D.None of the food smells.
74.When getting out of theatre,one shouldC first.
A.let old people go 
B.let sick people go
C.let people in front of you go
D.let children go
75.What can be the best title for the text?A
A.Movies Manners
B.Don't Text When in the Theatre
C.Taking Food Which Doesn't Smell
D.Letting Other People Go First.

20.It was a Sunday morning,and I was in a terrible mood.Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn't invited me.I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in."Want to go for a ride today,Beck?It's a beautiful day."
"No!Leave me alone!"Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later.I forgot to be mad at them and went.When I came home I found a note on the table.My mother put it where I would be sure to see it."Dad has had an accident.Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital".
When I reached the hospital,my mother came out and told me my father's injuries were extensive."Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911,thank God!If he had moved Daddy,there's no telling what might have happened.A broken rib(肋骨)might have pierced (穿透)a lung…."
My mother may have said more,but I didn't hear.I didn't hear anything except those terrible words:Leave me alone.My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more.How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?
It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation.I held his hand gently,afraid of hurting him.
"Daddy…I am so sorry…."
"It's okay,sweetheart.I'll be okay."
"No,"I said,"I mean about what I said to you that day.You know,that morning?"
My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly.He looked at me and said,"Sweetheart,I don't remember anything about that day,not before,during or after the accident.I remember kissing you goodnight the night before,though."He managed a weak smile.
My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power.They can hurt or they can heal.And we all have the power to choose our words.I intend to do that very carefully from now on.
