    Scientists in Israel have discovered a new way to test for water pollution by "listening" to what the plants growing in water have to say．By shining a laser beam(激光束) on the tiny pieces of algae(海藻) floating in the water, the researchers said they hear sound waves that tell them the type and amount of pollution in the water．
    "It is a red light, telling us that something is beginning to go wrong with the quality of water," said Zvy Dubinsky, an aquatic biologist at Israel's Bar Ilan University．"Algae is the first thing to be affected by a change in water quality．"
    As water sources deteriorate worldwide, the testing of algae could be used to monitor water quality faster, more cheaply and more accurately than techniques now in use, Dubinsky said．The secret is to measure the rate of photosynthesis(光合作用) in the algae, meaning the plant's ability to transform light into energy．During photosynthesis, plants also release oxygen into the air．
    Dubinsky's technique is easy to perform because of the over-abundance of algae in the planet's water．Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere comes from algae．A prototype tester shoots a laser beam at water samples to stimulate photosynthesis in the algae．But not all of the laser's heat is used．
    Depending on the condition of the algae and the rate of photosynthesis, some of the heat is shot back into the water, creating sound waves, Dubinsky said．With a special underwater microphone, researchers are able to analyze the strength of the sound waves and determine the health of the algae and the condition of the surrounding water．
    "Algae suffering from lead poisoning, like waste discharged from battery and paint manufacturing plants, will produce a different sound than those suffering from lack of iron or exposure to other toxins," said researcher Yulia Pinchasov．
    72．To study water quality, scientists choose algae mainly because       ．
    A．algae is most easily affected by pollution
    B．most oxygen is produced by algae
    C．the amount of algae is decreasing
    D．algae is a kind of plant floating in the water
    73．When Dubinsky studied water quality, he mainly focused on       ．
    A．the amount of laser used by algae
    B．the rate of photosynthesis in the algae
    C．the condition of the algae
    D．the heat of laser used by algae
    74．After the study, scientists proved that       ．
    A．the increase in population is caused by lack of water
    B．global warming causes water resources to reduce worldwide
    C．algae can show the type and amount of pollution in the water
    D．algae is dying out in the ocean around the world
    75．What would be the most suitable title for the passage?
    A．Water pollution is reduced with the growth of algae
    B．Pollution makes it hard for plants to make photosynthesis
    C．Water pollution affects the growth of marine plants
    D．Scientists listen to plants to find pollution

Last year, while    50    friends here, I saw in the local paper that exact same    51    was for sale for 450,000 yuan!”
    It is a seller’s    52    . Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price just to have a chance. Li Hua says the situation is really diffcult. “Whether you decide to buy or decide not to buy, you still feel like you made the    53    decision. If you buy, you feel like you overpaid. If you don’t buy, you want to kick yourself for passing up a great    54    .”
    Everyone says prices must fall, but everyone hopes it will happen the day after they sell their house.   55    government officials have no idea what the future will bring. “All we can say is that these things change,” said the state director of housing.  “What goes up must come down.”

    As an effect of the high fuel prices spent on bus transportation, some American schools are changing to a four-day week. That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule.
    Having been approved for three years and beginning in the fall, students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota will be in school from Tuesday to Friday. Each school day will be 65 minutes longer. Officials say the district expects to save about sixty-five thousand dollars a year in transportation costs.
    In new Mexico, the first school district changed to a four-day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott(抵制). Now, 17 out of 89 districts use it.
    In Custer, South Dakota, students have been going to school four days a week since 1995. Superintendent(主管人)Tim Creal says the change has saved about one million dollars over just the past eight years. He sees other benefits, too. Students get more instructional time, and activities that used to take up class time are now held on non-school days. He says that in the future, the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school. High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes.
    A four-day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers, but working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day.
    1. According to Tim Creal, what makes it possible to have even fewer days in school?
    A. The increasing number of private tutors.
    B. The development of teaching methods.
    C. The increase in the number of online classes.
    D. The growth in the income of Americans.
    2. It can be learned from the passage that______
    A. students will be in school from Monday to Tuesday.
    B. four-day week was first carried out in South Dakota.
    C. Maccray will save one million dollars every year.
    D. Minnesota state has approved the four-day week plan.
    3. The passage is mainly about______
    A. some school’s four-day week plan    B. districts using a four-day week.
    C. how to save on transportation fees.   D. expense of school transportation.

    Los Angeles June 14, 2006 – Hollywood actress Daryl Hannah was arrested yesterday after spending two weeks sitting in a walnut tree on an urban farm a few kilometers from downtown Los Angeles. She was one of 40 people, including celebrities from the music and movie world, who were protesting at the proposed destruction of the 14 – acre farm. Police officers cut away branches from the tree and used a fire engine to reach Ms Hannah and her co – protester, environmentalist John Quigley. The two of them raised their fists in defiance（反抗）as they were removed.
    Protesters, some of whom had chained themselves to concrete –filled barrels（桶），said that it was essential to keep the farm operating, as it provided food for hundreds of poor families in the area. About 350 people grow produce and flowers on the farm, which has been there for more than a decade and is situated in an inner –city area surrounded by warehouses and railroad tracks. However, the local authority recently approved plans for the area to be cleared and redeveloped for the construction of a huge new warehouse.
    Ms Hannah, 45, star of films such as Splash and Kill Bill was not thrilled about being arrested. “But I felt it was important to show my support for the people,” she said. “This farm should be a model for sustainable (可持续的) urban agriculture. It needs to be replicated, not eradicated.”
    The record length for a tree protest is held by a woman called Julia Hill, who remained on top of a 30-metre-high redwood tree in Northern California for 738 days from December 1997 to December 1999. She was successful in saving the tree and those around it from destruction. Ms Hill was also at the Los Angeles urban farm project this week, but her presence failed to stop the inevitable (不可避免的). No sooner had the protesters been removed than earth-moving machines moved in and began to clear the land.

    KANDAHAR, Afghanistan–-- Afghans burned tires and chanted “Death to America” after U.S troops fired Monday(April 12, 2010) on a civilian bus near Kandahar, killing four people and wounding more than a dozen. Afghanistan’s president accused NATO of breaking its commitment to safeguard civilian lives.
    The attack angered Afghan officials and the public in Kandahar, the Taliban’s birthplace, and dealt a blow to U.S and NATO efforts to win popular support for a coming offensive to drive the insurgents(叛乱分子) from the biggest city in the south. NATO expressed regret for the loss of civilian lives and said it was investigating.
    Nearly 200 Afghans blocked highway where the shooting occurred, burning tires, firing weapons and chanting “Death to America” and other slogans. They also called for the ouster (forcing somebody out of a pasition) of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, a Kandahar native who has been appealing for the people here to support the U.S-led campaign against the Taliban.
    “The Americans are constantly killing our civilians and the government is not demanding an explanation,” protester Mohammad Razaq said. “We demand justice from the Karzai government and the punishment of those soldiers responsible.”
    Kandahar, a city of about a half million people, is nominally under government control, but the Taliban have stepped up infiltration(浸润), staging attacks and threatening local people.
    “These foreigners have their enemies, but killing Afghans is not the answer,” said Abdul Hadi, who sells homemade herbal medicine in a public market. He said international forces should publish a schedule of their patrols(巡逻) so Afghans can keep out of the way.
    “Better yet, I would like to see them leave Afghanistan,” he added.
    Haji Zahir, who runs a transport firm, said it was time for U.S. and other foreign forces to withdraw from the country.
    “They say they want to bring security. It is all lies, lies. They kill Afghans. That is not the way to bring security,” Zahir said.
    46．According to the passage, we can safely conclude that____________.
    A．American soldiers are killing Talibans effectively
    B．Anger rises as US troops kill 4 Afghans on a bus
    C．NATO expressed great dissatisfaction with American troops
    D．Afghan President Hamid Karzai required NATO to withdraw
    47．The underlined word in Paragraph 5 nominally most probably means____________.
    A．completely unknown to the people in the world
    B．partially well-known to the people across the globe
    C．bearing the name of a famous person around the world
    D．officially described as something, when this is not really true
    48．As for NATO soldiers’ rude action, Abdul Hadi is ____________.
    A．absolutely angry and upset        B．a little pleased but impatient
    C．very angry and dissatisfied        D．impatient but bearable
    49．We can infer from the passage that____________
    A．NATO troops can completely control Afghanistan
    B．NATO troops can bring security to Afghanistan
    C．Afghans will accept NATO’s control sooner or later
    D．it’s impossible for NATO to conquer Afghanistan and its people
    50．Which statement is true according to the passage?
    A．NATO fails to win popular support for a coming offensive.
    B．Kandahar is the most important city in Afghanistan.
    C．NATO has really brought security to Afghanistan.
    D．NATO troops will withdraw from Afghanistan in the near future.
