Mainland couples who give birth to a second child in Hong Kong will be fined for breaking the family planning policy,a senior official has warned.
As more women flock to Hong Kong to give birth to their second child,Zhang Feng,family planning department director of Guangdong Province,stressed that this violated China's policies.
“And those who are government employees will even be dismissed from their posts.”he said.
“It doesn’t matter if they give birth to their second child on the mainland or in other countries and regions , they have violated the country’s policies and the probince’s regulations”.
He said that some families had been punished in the past few months after having a second in Hong Kong , but gave no details .
Zhang made his remarks when a Hong Kong newspaper carried a controversial notice claiming residents’ medical services had been affected by the growing number of mainland women who arrive in the city to give birth and gain fight of abode (居住)there.
According to statistics revealed by Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government,about 88,000 babies were born in Hong Kong in 2010,but more than 41,000 or 47 percent,were to mainland couples,including a large number from Guangdong.
Hong Kong has limited the number of mainland women permitted to give birth in the city at 34,000 this year.
The issue also has caused calls for an amendment(修正)to Hong Kong's Basic Law so that babies born to mainland women are no longer granted permanent fight of abode.
“I support Hong Kong government's decision to reduce or limit the number for mainland women giving birth in Hong Kong.”Zhang said.
China introduced its family planning policy in 1979 to limit births in the world's most populous nation,although the rules have been relaxed in recent years.

In the early hours of March 8, a Boeing 777 took off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Its destination was Beijing. But for unknown reasons, it never arrived there.
There were 239 people on the Malaysia Airlines flight, including 154 Chinese. As of March 13, 12 different countries, including Malaysia, China, Vietnam and the US, were searching for the plane.
The disappearance is an “aviation (航空) mystery”, Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, the head of Malaysia’s Civil Aviation Authority, said on March 10.There was no clear sign of a crash by March 13.
Between 1-2 hours after takeoff, the plane suddenly lost contact with people on the ground. The weather was clear, and the pilots didn’t make any calls . No evidence was found in the area where the flight last made contact. People are also talking about a possible hijacking (劫機).
International police agency Interpol confirmed on March 9 that at least two passengers on the flight had used stolen passports to get on board. “We are looking at all possibilities,” said Malaysian Transport Minister Hishamuddin Hussein. The incident is now being called simply a “plane disappearance”.
So, what are some possible causes of a plane disappearance? An AP story provided a summary.
1. A failure of the plane’s body or its engines. However, even if both engines stopped working, the plane could still glide (滑翔) for up to 20 minutes, giving pilots time to make an emergency call.
2. Bad weather. Planes are designed to fly through most severe storms. However, in June 2009, an Air France flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris crashed during a bad storm over the Atlantic Ocean.
3. A bomb. Throughout history, several planes have been brought down by bombs.
4. An accidental shoot-down by some country’s military. In July 1988, the US Navy accidentally shot down an Iran Air flight. In September 1983, a Korean Air Lines flight was shot down by a Russian fighter jet.
No matter how unlikely a situation, it’s too early to determine what really happened to MH370. It could take months, if not years, to rule out any possibilities, say experts..
小題1:How many cities are mentioned in this passage?
A.Four cities.B.five cities.C.Six cities.D.Seven cities.
小題2:What could the underlined phrase “rule out” in the last paragraph mean?
A.cross outB.get rid ofC.take outD.take the place of

Lately, Bolivia has outlawed (宣布……為非法) the use of animals in circus (馬戲團) performances, and officials in the South American nation aren’t doing it in a silly way! They say all Bolivian circuses must stop using animals.
Some people welcome the law. They say animals should not be forced to work and that circus creatures are caged in tight spaces when they travel. However, other people say that many of the four legged performers are cared for by animal experts. Plus, they point out, circus animals entertain millions of fans.
Should animals perform in circuses? Student reporters Michael and Emily have done some work on the issue.
Yes, I think animals should be allowed in circus acts. Most circus trainers love and respect the animals they work with and treat them well. Certain rules and regulations also help to ensure that the animals are treated humanely, or with kindness. Millions of people love circus animals. They look forward to seeing elephants and tigers perform. Many of the animals are exotic (奇特的), so people might not get the chance to see them anywhere else. “Circus animals shouldn’t be banned,” says Parker, a sixth grader from Oregon City, “One of the main reasons people go to the circus is to see animals they don’t see every day and to see them do cool tricks.”
Animals should not perform in circuses. When animals are in circuses, they are forced to learn new behaviors in order to entertain humans. Those behaviors may go against their natural instincts (本性). For example, bears  hibernate  in the winter, but bears in a circus have to perform and can’t hibernate as their bodies tell them to. Also, circus animals have to travel all the time in cages. All that traveling may cause them to become confused or upset because their environment keeps changing. “When animals are removed from their habitat and held in cages ... it changes their behaviors,” points out Anne Northam, a teacher from Friendswood, Texas.  “They are no longer selfsufficient (自給自足的).”
小題1:Which of the following can be a reason why people support the law?
A.Animals in circuses are given more respect and care.
B.Animals in circuses bring a lot of fun for people.
C.Animals in circuses can’t live their life naturally.
D.Animals in circuses are protected by many regulations.
小題2:What’s Anne’s attitude towards the new law?
A.She welcomes it.
B.She is against it.
C.She thinks it acceptable.
D.She thinks it useless.
小題3:Which would be the best title for the text?
A.Enjoy more fun in circuses
B.More respect and kindness to animals
C.Circuses in Bolivia Open or Closed
D.Animals belong in circuses Yes or No
小題4:The underlined word “hibernate” in the last paragraph probably means __________.
A.sleepB.look for foodC.move from one place to another D.perform

Was the London Olympics a success? Many people hold different opinions.However, one thing is certain, London could win a gold medal for hosting the“greenest”Games ever, BBC News reported.
Previous Olympic hosts have been criticized for the environmental damage they have caused through construction, waste and transport.But things had to be different in London.
What is most impressive is that London considered the construction of the Olympic Park as an opportunity to clean up polluted areas.2 million tons of polluted soils were removed and 200 old factory buildings were torn down, according to sustainablebusiness.com.But that’s not all.99 percent of the debris(廢瓦礫)were reused to build the Olympic Park.
As well as using recycled materials, all gymnasiums were built with green building techniques.The Olympic Stadium is the lightest one ever built, which minimized the amount of steel and concrete needed.Also, the handball field has lighting pipes on the roof that reduce electricity use by 40 percent.
The effort that London made to deal with waste also deserves praise.Water used for drinking and watering plants was from collected rainwater or recycled wastewater.In this way, about 30-40 percent less water was used in total.Waste food package were either recycled or processed and turned into renewable energy.
As one of the best connected places in Europe, London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of public transport.For example, it had trains deliver half of the building materials, instead of cars, which greatly reduced carbon emissions(排放).
The clean anti-doping result also added to the greenness of the Games.Only one athlete tested positive for a banned drug on the day of competing, which is why the IOC President, Jacques Rogge, has praised anti-doping efforts at the London Games.

China’s new term, tuhao, may be in next year’s Oxford English Dictionary. The word caught the attention of the dictionary's editing team after BBC’s recent program on influential Chinese words. “If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,” said Julie Kleeman, project manager with the editing team.
In Chinese tu means uncouth (笨拙的) and hao means rich. It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China’s countryside. The word became more popular in September with the launch of Apple’s new gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China’s rich people. The color became known as “tuhao gold.” The word is now also used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it. Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words — dama and hukou — which may also make it into the dictionary.
People can have an intuitive (直觀的) grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin, Kleeman said, adding that people avoid using an English word to keep the original meaning.
“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,” she said. Some of them are: Guanxi, which means “connection”; Taikonaut, a mix of taikong, meaning outer space, and astronaut.
The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months. “It at least broke our old rules. It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the time,” according to a statement from ex-chief-editor John Simpson.
小題1:Which of the following statements is true according to the text?
A.Dama and hukou have made it into Oxford English dictionary.
B.Some influential Chinese words appeared on one of BBC’s recent programs.
C.tuhao refers to people who have both the cash and the class.
D.John Simpson thinks that it is not good to break old rules.
小題2:What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Give orders to others. B.Get ready to help others.
C.Go on a diet. D.Put on weight.
小題3:Tuhao becomes more popular in September partly because ______.
A.it is very likely to appear in Oxford English Dictionary
B.it is often used by the online community
C.people use Chinese pinyin to keep the original meaning
D.Apple launched a new gold-colored iPhone
小題4:The main idea of the text is that ______.
A.tuhao may end up in Oxford English Dictionary
B.sometimes pinyin makes Chinese words better understood
C.tuhao has a new meaning at the present time
D.Oxford English Dictionary Includes new words faster than before

  Regardless of their family background, the children’s reactions to new environments have struck the public. 
In one episode of Dad! , the five-year-old daughter of former Olympic diving champion Tian Liang cries and hides behind her father when they arrive at a rural village. In an episode of the other series, a young girl in Tianjin breaks down into a tearful fit after being asked by her father to go out alone to buy eggs and a pancake.
In the eyes of some observers, these kids show no sense of independence, and the reason is put down to parents who are overly sheltering. But television viewers and parents were heartened when the sobbing Tianjin girl finally wiped away her tears as she returned holding the pancake. In the case of Tian’s daughter, she eventually began to take care of her younger companions and learned to seek help from people she didn’t know.
The father of the Tianjin girl felt “delightfully shocked” and said. “She used to have to be accompanied by her mother or grandmother. Now she has the courage to do it all by herself. ”
The shows have led many parents to change how they raise their children. Shanghai mother Liang Jing said she would try to “give some training” to her shy son, asking him to tidy up his toys.

America's child movie star Shirley Temple Black died late Monday evening at the age of 85. Her fans in China are also deeply saddened. Temple is just one example of movie stars that China adored, and still adores. Here's our editor's pick of the top movie stars who have influenced China.
1. Sylvester Stallone
Oh, Rambo! The first strong American man that China knew. His accented English, easily recognizable even for someone who doesn't speak English, and his eyes that never seemed to smile, makes him someone whom cannot be forgotten. He represented the strong American image, and even stirred a boxing and bodybuilding fever in China.
2.Charlie Chaplin (April 16, 1889 – December 25, 1977)
In the 20th century, it is not too much to say that Einstein made the greatest contributions to science, and not many would disagree that Chaplin did the same for film. He was the first actor that introduced comedy to most Chinese viewers, and politically, he was also a close friend of China’s. His silent films broke the barrier of language and his form of art was recognized by all. It will be a difficult task to find a person in China who does not recognize Chaplin, even today.
3. Shirley Temple ( April 23, 1928 – February 10, 2014)
When Chinese audiences saw this adorable child star for the first time on screen, Shirley Temple had already lived for more than half a century. In her movies, she was always alone or in trouble, but this adorable little blonde(金發(fā)女郎) could always resolve anything with her kindness, push away the fogginess and bring about light. The brand "Shirley Temple" was a product of the Great Depression. People watched her act to forget their hardships as Temple entertained the poor, the rich, adults and children alike. Several decades later, when her films were screened in China, the effects were the same.
4. Audrey Hepburn( May 4, 1929 – January 20, 1993)
She will forever be the princess in Chinese people's hearts. Even to this day, a large number of tourists go to Rome to visit the Mouth of Truth with their lovers and eat ice cream on the Spanish Steps. Her sense of style seems to never go out of style. When she was alive, she was living perfection. Even after her death, she has remained an icon. That's something that only Audrey Hepburn is capable of.
小題1:According to the passage, who was most known for comedy in China?
A.Sylvester StalloneB.Charlie ChaplinC.Shirley TempleD.Audrey Hepburn
小題2:What can we learn from the passage?
A.Sylvester Stallone taught boxing and bodybuilding and caused a fever in China.
B.Charlie Chaplin was China’s close friend because he introduced comedy to China.
C.Audrey Hepburn’s movie made the Mouth of Truth and the Spanish Steps popular.
D.Shirley Temple’s works can only help Americans forget hardships and enjoy life better.
小題3:What does the underlined word “icon” mean in the passage?
A.symbolB.signC.mysteryD.heroine
小題4:In which part can we most probably read this passage?
A.ArtB.ColumnsC.Music & TheaterD.Film &TV

Everyone has done experiments in high school laboratories, but have you ever thought about designing a satellite to explore space?
On Nov. 19, a team of students from Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in the US awed peers and even scientists by successfully launching a satellite.
The first satellite designed and built by high school students was sent up into space along with a record-setting. 28 other small ones on a rocket were sent from a NASA center in Virginia, CNN reported. It took the students seven years to build.
The students call their tiny satellite TJ3Sat, which is named after their school. It is just 10x10x12 centimeters and weighs only 0.89 kilograms, according to Orbital Sciences, a company which developed the rocket and supported the students’ project. It can be controlled with a smartphone.
Like most satellites, TJ3Sat can send and receive data. The small spacecraft is equipped with a voice synthesizer (合成器), which can switch text to voice and transmit those sounds back to Earth over radio waves, said Orbital officials. In this case, anyone can give it a try via the project’s website (school website) by submitting (提交) a text. The texts that get approved will be sent to the satellite, changed to voice and then broadcast back to Earth via radio waves.
“I can say ‘Go Colonials’ on our ground station and when it is on the other side of the world, in India, someone can hear ‘Go Colonials’over the radio,” the team explains on the website.
The satellite will stay in space for at least three months.
School principal Evan Glazer told The Washington Post that the project started in 2006 as an activity in the spare time. Later it became a research project for a select group of seniors.
At a time when American students are busy with SATs, the launch of the satellite shows what diligent teenagers can achieve when allowed to pursue their own curiosities, Glazer said.
“It used to be that kids growing up wanted to be an astronaut,” Andrew Petro, program executive (主管) for small spacecraft technology at NASA, said in a statement. “I think we might be seeing kids saying what they want to do is build a spacecraft. The idea here is that they really can do that.”
小題1: The underlined word “awed” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ___.
A.influencedB.a(chǎn)mazedC.delightedD.inspired
小題2: Which of the following statements about TJ3Sat is TRUE according to the article?
A.It took a group of students about a decade to build the satellite.
B.Besides TJ3Sat, 28 other small satellites were built by the students.
C.TJ3Sat can receive text messages that the students send into space, which it can change to voice messages and broadcast back to Earth.
D.TJ3Sat is expected to stay in orbit for the next year, sending out messages together with information about its position in space.
小題3: According to the article, the launch of the satellite _______.
A.is evidence of the advance of spacecraft technology
B.proves that hard-working teenagers can achieve a lot
C.shows the importance of extracurricular activities at school
D.has inspired many people to take an interest in space travel
