2．You have heard of Google，MySpace，F(xiàn)acebook and some geniuses who made billions from brilliant computer ideas．Now meet a girl genius-a New Jersey teenager who turned her high school inspiration into the fastest growing and the third largest online social network in America，behind MySpace and Facebook．
  She's only 18，but Catherine Cook has become a millionaire by updating one of the symbols of the American educational experience-the high school yearbook．
  Not long after Catherine arrived at her new high school at 15，she was flipping through an old yearbook with Dave，her 16-year-old brother，when they found the name of a girl they both knew．Yet the yearbook picture looked nothing like her．In that moment an idea occurred to Catherine．
"The pictures always smell horrible and the books never really tell you anything about the person．So we thought：why not put it online？Why not have a profile page that can list your TV interests，the music you like，your additional activities？"she said．
  However，neither Catherine nor her brother knew anything about building a website，but family help was at hand．Catherine and Dave have an older brother，Geoff，who had already made an Internet fortune of his own while studying at Harvard University．
  Geoff immediately saw the promise in his younger sister and brother's idea and helped them build the teen networking site myYearbook．com．The website allows friends to stay in touch，share videos and music，provides games and acts as a matchmaker．
   By April 2005 the family was ready to test its new toy．Catherine and Dave turned up at school wearing T-shirts with slogans that read："Are you the prettiest girl in school？How about the most foolish？Find out at myYearbookxom．"
  As teenagers around the country poured into the site，they were followed by a group of investors and advertisers．
   With 10 million users，most under 18，the site is now earning more than $10 million a year in advertising sales．
   Catherine is starting her second year as a student at Georgetown University in Washington DC，but she still works more than 25 hours per week-outside of school hours．

56．What does this passage mainly talk about？（no more than 10 words）A New Jersey teenager updated the high school yearbook．
57．What is the meaning of the underlined part in paragraph 3？（no more than 10 words）suddenly catherine came up with an idea．
58．Who helped  Catherine build the teen networking site my Yearbook．com？（One word）Geoff
59．Besides individual information，what others functions does Catherine's teen networking site myYearbook．com．provide？（no more than 20 words）The website allows friends to stay in touch，share video and music，provides games and and acts as a matchmaker．
60．What do you think makes Catherine Cook succeed？（no more than 10 words）Her creativity，hard work as well as her family's help．．

分析 Catherine在15歲時(shí)翻看哥哥相冊(cè)時(shí)，他們共同認(rèn)識(shí)的一個(gè)女孩名字都忘記了，這讓她突發(fā)想到創(chuàng)辦這樣一個(gè)社交網(wǎng)站．

解答 56．A New Jersey teenager updated the high school yearbook．主旨大意概括題．在第一段Now meet a girl genius-a New Jersey teenager who turned her high school inspiration into the fastest growing and the third largest online social network in America，behind MySpace and Facebook．這句可以當(dāng)做全文的主旨句，即一個(gè)女中學(xué)生創(chuàng)建了第三大網(wǎng)絡(luò)社交系統(tǒng)．
57．suddenly catherine came up with an idea．判斷推理題．根據(jù)這段的描述可知，Catherine在15歲時(shí)翻看哥哥相冊(cè)時(shí)，他們共同認(rèn)識(shí)的一個(gè)女孩名字都忘記了，這讓她突發(fā)想到創(chuàng)辦這樣一個(gè)社交網(wǎng)站．
58．Geoff 細(xì)節(jié)題．Geoff immediately saw the promise in his younger sister and brother's idea and helped them build 這句話告訴我們Geoff幫助他們建立了該社交網(wǎng)站．
59．The website allows friends to stay in touch，share video and music，provides games and and acts as a matchmaker．細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章The website allows friends to stay in touch，share videos and music，provides games and acts as a matchmaker．這句看出，該社交網(wǎng)站還提供交友，分享視頻和音樂等功能．
60．Her creativity，hard work as well as her family's help．細(xì)節(jié)題．最后一段but she still works more than 25 hours per week-outside of school hours．推出每周工作25個(gè)小時(shí)，應(yīng)該是很努力的一個(gè)人，另外在上文提到Geoff給了她很大的幫助．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀表達(dá)題時(shí)，理清文章的脈絡(luò)、掌握文章的主旨大意，并能運(yùn)用簡(jiǎn)潔的語(yǔ)言表達(dá)．回答要有針對(duì)性觀點(diǎn)要明確．不要摘抄文章原句．

10．Science has a lot of uses．It can uncover laws of nature，cure diseases，make bombs，and help bridges to stand up．Indeed science is so good at what it does that there's always a temptation （誘惑） to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful．David Brooks，author of The Social Animal：The Hidden Sources of Love，Character，and Achievement，appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation．
Brooks gained fame for several books．His latest book The Social Animal，however，is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books．It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics．The book focuses on big questions：What has science revealed about human nature？What are the sources of character？And why are some people happy and successful while others aren't？
To answer these questions，Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines．Considering this，you might expect the book to be a dry recitation （背誦） of facts．But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox （非常規(guī)的），and perhaps unfortunate way．Instead of introducing scientific theories，he tells a story，within which he tries to make his points，perhaps in order to keep the reader's attention．So as Harold and Erica，the hero and heroine in his story，live through childhood，we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction．Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters．
On the whole，Brooks'story is acceptable if uninspired．As one would expect，his writing is mostly clear and，to be fair，some chapters stand out above the rest．I enjoyed，for instance，the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own．While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters，the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere．These problems partly involve Brooks'attempt to translate his tale into science．

56．What is the main idea of Paragraph 2？（No more than 10words）The purpose of writing The Social Animal．/The main topics of the book．Or：The weighty topics in"The Social Animal"，written by Brooks．
57．Why does Brooks use a story to introduce scientific theories？（No more than 15words）Because he tries to make his points through the story or keep reader's attention．Or：To make his points and keep the reader's attention．
58．According to The Social Animal，how can we learn about the science of child development？（No more than 10words）As Harold and Erica live through their childhood．Or：By reading the story of Harold and Erica．Or：By following the story of living through childhood．
59．Please explain the underlined word"weighty"in English．（No more than 1word）Serious．Or：Important．Or：Significant．Or：Great．Or：Big．Or：Crucial．Or：Heavy…．
60．Do you like Brooks'way of dealing with science in The Social Animal？Why？（No more than 20words）Yes，I do．Because he introduces scientific theories through a story，which is much easier for people to understand．．
