     Two hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia live some of the world's largest black
bears. They are in northern Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of
other wildlife.
     The streams, lakes, meadows, mountain ridges and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for
black bears,have also attracted more people to the region. Open spaces are threatened by plans for housing
estates and important habitats are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos' natural
beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy (大自然保護協(xié)會) named the area one
of America's "Last Great Places"
     Operating out of a century-old schoolhouse in the village of Long Pond, Pennsylvania, the
conservancy's bud Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth
with environmental protection. By forging partnerships with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy
has been able to protect more than 14,000 acres of environmentally important land in the area.
      Altemose's family has farmed in the Pocono area for generations. Two years ago Francis worked with
the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his family's land
can be protected from development and the Altemoses will be better able to provide a secure financial future
for their 7-year-old grandson. Cook attributes the Conservancy's success in the Poconos to having a local
presence and a commitment to working with local residents
      "The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local community," Cook said. "The
people who live there respect the land. They value quite forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are
eager to help with conservation effort. For more information on how you can help The Nature Conservancy
protect the Poconos and the world's other"Last Great Places," please call 1-888-564 6864, or visit us on the
World Wide Web at www.tnc.org.
1. The purpose in naming the Poconos as one of America's " Last Great Places" is to ________.
A. gain support from the local community

     The dream of getting into an American university is coming true for more and more Chinese students.
Last year almost forty thousand Chinese students were accepted into undergraduate programs in America. That was a fifty percent increase over the year before and four times the number of undergraduate
students just five years ago.
     More Chinese students want to go to American universities and more American universities want them
to come. For Chinese students it's a chance to get a good education and for American universities it's a
chance to, well, make a lot of money. American universities received $26 billion in tuition fees from
International students last year. It's an important part of their revenue. The tuition fees for foreign students
are far higher than for domestic students. For example, the State University of New York (SUNY)
charges local students less than $5,000 a year and foreign students more than $13,000 a year.
     Places like SUNY are easy to get into. They don't look too closely at your academic record and they
accept lower TOEFL and SAT*scores. But once you're in, it gets difficult. You have to take a lot of
courses, attend lectures, participate in seminars, write essays and give presentations-all in English! The
professors don't change their teaching styles and will not lower their standards to accommodate foreign
students.
     Many Chinese students struggle to keep up with the workload. Some drop out and about five percent
fail and have to come back home. It's not surprising because getting a degree from an American university
is difficult even for American students. Only slightly more than fifty percent of American students graduate
in four years from the university they enrolled in. Some will take five or six years to get the credits they
need to graduate. Chinese students work much harder than their American counterparts but language is a
big stumbling block for them. If you want to succeed at an American university, your English must be very, very good. At American universities, getting in is easy; getting out is hard.
1. About _________ Chinese students were accepted into undergraduate programs in
    America five years ago.
A. 27,000      
B. 8,000    
C. 4,000      
D. 10,000
2. Which statement is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. American universities earn a lot of money by accepting foreign students.
B. Getting a degree from an American university isn't difficult for local students.
C. Professors in American universities will change their teaching style to make it easier for foreign students.
D. Though Chinese students work much harder, language is an obstacle anyway.
3. Which sentence can serve as the topic sentence of this passage?
A. The first sentence in Para.1.           
B. The first sentence in Para. 2.
C. The last sentence in the last paragraph.    
D. The third sentence in the last paragraph.
4. What's probably the purpose of this passage?
A. To warn that American universities are not so good as expected.
B. To warn that American universities charge foreign students too much money.
C. To warn that you won't learn anything in American universities.
D. To warn that it's not so easy to get a diploma from American universities.

      Every year, earthquakes are responsible for a large number of deaths and vast amounts of destruction(破壞) in various parts of the world. There are about a million quakes a year. Fortunately, however, not
all of them are destructive. The intensity (強度) of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale, which goes from zero upward. The highest magnitude recorded to date is 8.9Major damage generally occurs
from quakes ranging upwards from 6.0.
     The actual cause of earthquake itself is the breaking of rocks at or below the breaking of rocks or
below the earth's surface. This is produced by pressure which scientists believe may be due to a number
of reasons, two of which are the changed of the earth's crust (外殼) and continental drift(漂流).
      In order to minimize the damage and to decrease some of the pain resulting from earthquakes,
scientists are working on ways to improve accurate prediction. Two kinds of the instruments now in use
to achieve this goal are seismograph(地震儀) and tilt (傾斜) meter. The former records any shaking of
the earth. Seismologists ca accurately record the exact time, location and size of an earthquake. The latter, as the name suggests, is used to record any changes in the tilt of the land.
1. Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. The highest magnitude of earthquake recorded is 8.9
B. Major damage usually happens when the intensity of an earthquake is below 6.0
C. Scientists usually use seismographs and tilt meters to predict earthquakes now.
D. Continental drift may cause an earthquake.
2. What's the main idea of the passage?
A.  Earthquakes can cause a lot of damage.
A.Scientists are working hard to predict the earthquakes.
B.The reason why earthquakes happen.
C.Introduce the earthquake and its prediction.  
3. Where does the passage mot likely come from?

     Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems.While scientists are finding ways to
make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger
and heavier than the devices themselves.University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a
nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
    “To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度) .”said
Jae Kwon，assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU.“The radioisotope
(放射性同位素)battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
     Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery，presently the
size and thickness of a penny，intended to power various micro/nanoelectromechanical
systems(M/NEMS) .Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns，Kwon said they are safe.
    “People hear the word‘nuclear'and think of something very dangerous.”he said.“However, nuclear
power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pacemakers，space
satellites and underwater systems.”
     His new idea is not only in the battery's size, but also in its semiconductor(半導(dǎo)體) .Kwon's battery
uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
    “The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation
energy can damage the lattice structure(晶體結(jié)構(gòu))of the solid semiconductor.”Kwon said.“By using a
liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
     Together with J .David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research
Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery.In the future, they hope to increase the battery's
power，shrink its size and try with various other materials.Kwon said that the battery could be thinner
than the thickness of human hair.

1 .Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?________
    A. He teaches chemistry at MU.
    B .He developed a chemical battery.
    C .He is working on a nuclear energy source.
    D .He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.

2 .Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4________.
    A .to show chemical batteries are widely applied
    B .to indicate nuclear batteries can be safely used
    C .to describe a nuclearpowered system
    D .to introduce various energy sources

3 .Liquid semiconductor is used to________.
    A .get rid of the radioactive waste
    B .test the power of nuclear batteries
    C .decrease the size of nuclear batteries
    D .reduce the damage to lattice structure

4 .According to Jae Kwon，his nuclear battery________.
    A .uses a solid semiconductor
    B .will soon replace the present ones
    C .could be extremely thin
    D .has passed the final test

        Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading ability. They feel
hopeless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must you agree that nothing can be done about it?
        To be sure, people are different. You cannot expect to do everything as well as certain other people
do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball, some would be very good players; others would
be very poor; and many would be in between. But even the very poor players can become much better
players if they are guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading. Some
seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find reading a slow and tiring job.
In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.
        Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his reading ability. In
these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading ability. After some of the causes of their
reading were discovered, they were given special instruction and practice in reading. After a few months,
another test of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading scores.
1.With the example of basketball players, the author shows ________.
A. why certain people are poor readers
B. that there are differences in people’s abilities
C. why some people are good basketball players
D. that good basketball players can be good readers
2.To improve their reading ability, people should ________.
A. work long and hard
B. take different forms of tests
C. have special help and practice
D. try different reading materials
3.The experiments mentioned in the text show that ________.
A. good readers seem to enjoy reading
B. almost all poor readers can make progress
C. causes of poor reading were difficult to find out
D. tests help people improve their reading ability
4.What does the underlined sentence “many would be in between” mean?
A. It means that many are the best basket players.
B. It means that many are the worst basket players.
C. It means that many are standing in the middle of the line.
D. It means that there are several levels of players in many students.
5.What’s the purpose of the author’s writing this passage?
A. To encourage people to improve their reading ability.
B. To suggest that readers should do practice only in reading.
C. To tell us that readers can’t improve their reading ability without special help.
D. To tell us that to be a good reader, one should be guided in the right way.

        A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same
words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better
to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the
time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
        A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad
thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have
read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think,
some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises(出現(xiàn))
from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into
the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.
        There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true,
that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond
of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such
people, I must say so peculiar(奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were
sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or
covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.
        No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believe
d that it was.
1. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _______.
A. repeated without any change
B. treated as a joke
C. made some changes by the parent
D. set in the present
2. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _______.
A. in a realistic setting          
B. heard for the first time
C. repeated too often        
D. told in a different way h
3. The advantage claimed(提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _______.
A. makes them less fearful
B. develops their power of memory
C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of
D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs
4. The author’s mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _______.
A. fairy stories are still being made up
