    “How many common English words were invented by Shakespeare?”
    How long did it take people to find the answer to this question 15 years ago? And now! you can google it and find the answer immediately!
    Google is the most popular Internet search engine in the world. It was invented by two students, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. They met in 1993, when they were studying computer science at Stanford University, USA. They dreamed of producing something that could also answer any question in seconds.
    Internet search engines at that time were slow and gave many websites that weren't useful. In January 1996, Page and Brin decided to make a better and faster search engine. They thought the results should be based on the most popular websites.
    Nobody would give them money for their project, so they used their own money. They also borrowed money from family and friends. Then, in 1998, they were given a cheque for $100,000, and they started their own company. Their first office was in a friend's garage. The company's name is Google, a word which comes from mathematics. A “google” is a very high number---- 1 followed by a hundred zeros.
    The google search engine was soon used by thousands of people worldwide because it was fast, easy and correct. By 2002 it was the biggest search engine on the Internet. Now, more questions have been answered by Google than any other Internet service, from sport to science, and from music to medicine. Google hopes that in the future all the world's information will be put on the Internet, so that everybody can find everything.

    In England, some food companies across the whole country have been told to carry out urgent (紧急的) tests on all beef products. Do you know why? That’s because some food companies used horsemeat to make beef products.
    There are some examples about the horsemeat matter. In January, 2013, in a number of UK supermarkets, frozen hamburgers were found to have traces of horsemeat in them. Some frozen beef products made by food company FINDUS were found to contain horsemeat. All of the beef products made by this company have been removed from sale.

    The willful blindness  in hockey toward concussions (头部撞击) has dropped. Hockey Canada has followed the lead of USA Hockey in preventing bodychecking (身体拦截) below age 13. A bad head injury of Sidney Crosby, the hockey's greatest star, opened the eyes of hockey people everywhere. This country's children have been facing similar danger at early ages, and Hockey Canada had to deal with a deep worry in the minds of Canadians to make the rule change. The liking for bodychecking from an early age is part of what makes Canadian hockey what it is.
    The change in rules should be taken as a chance to draw special attention to skill development in an environment free of danger.  It may also control the loss of thousands of young players who don't enjoy that environment.
    For years, many Canadian hockey parents and coaches have insisted that bodychecking at early ages is necessary to ensure that players can do it safely at older ages. True or not, there may be a safer way to teach hitting than to make younger players pay a price for it in head injuries. When USA Hockey changed its rules for the 2011-2012 season, it also created bodychecking-education programs that will be mandatory(强制的) for all coaches,  including those teaching players in  the pre-checking ages. And it began to encourage more "touch" - without real bodychecking - from 9 t0 12. It also made the rules for 13 and up stricter. The USA is trying to show that it's possible to teach hockey protective skills without putting11 and 12-year-olds in greater danger. It's worth the try.
    Hockey Canada has taken serious steps to do away with hits on the head. However, it's hard to change a sports culture so connected with who we are as a country. Too often, bodychecking has been used to try to separate a player from his head rather than from the ball. Children were paying a price for this country's love of the game.
    There are always changes in Canada's game, and the change in the bodychecking age sends the clearest message yet to coaches and parents that player safety is paramount(至上的) in the game.
    小题1:We can tell that the problem of bodychecking in Canada____________.
    A．is controlled strictly
    B．is taken more seriously now
    C．is caused by players' carelessness
    D．is connected with players' interest
    小题2:What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 2?
    A．The safe ways of controlling the loss.
    B．The steps of drawing special attention.
    C．The possible results of changing the rules.
    D．The methods of improving the environment.
    小题3:What can we learn from the passage?
    A. The USA found a safer way to teach bodychecking.
    B. Bodychecking-education programs in the USA are successful.
    C. Bodychecking is a good way to value players' skills in the USA.
    D. The USA has tried to create an environment of less bodychecking.
    小题4:What is probably the best title' for this passage?
    A．Which is more important?
    B．How do we change the rules?
    C．Why is hockey a dangerous game?
    D．When should bodychecking be prevented?

The machines do most of the work. A farm with four workers is a big farm, and a farm with one worker is a small farm.
    Britain does not grow rice. The summer is not hot enough. The most important grain crop in Britain is wheat. Wheat and other crops grow best in the east of Britain. In the west there is a lot of rain. Here grass grows very well. So, in the west of Britain, most farms are animal farms. They are not crop farms. The Britain winter is warm and the grass grows all the year. The animals live out in the fields and on the highlands all the year. The Britain people eat lots of meat and they drink lots of milk. Cattle give milk and meat, sheep give meat. Cattle and sheep farms are in the west. Pigs are on farms here and there.
    Britain can now produce about half of its food. It doesn’t produce enough wheat, so some wheat is imported (进口) from other countries. Britain must also import all the hot climate food, such as rice, tea, coffee and so on.
