    SYDNEY 2005-01-01 08:33—Mother of two, Jillian Searle, had to choose between her children when she made a life-or-death decision.
    Swept up by mountainous tsunami (海啸) waves at a Thai resort ( 旅游胜地), she could not hold on to both her young sons and survive . Fighting to stay above the waters , she had to choose which one would have to take his chances in the swirling torrent (漩流).
    “I knew I had to let go of one of them and I just thought I’d better let go of the one that’s the older,” she told Sky News television in a report broadcast on Thursday. She said she was accompanied by the two boys, Lachie, 5, and two-year-old Blake, and their father, Brad, who had watched the drama helplessly from their first-floor hotel room, when the waves struck. “And I was screaming, trying to find him, and we thought he was dead,” she told reporters on arrival back in Australia. Lachie was found alive about 2 hours later clinging to a door and, looked uninjured as his mother spoke to reporters.
    British surfer (冲浪运动员) Martin Markwell is also a lucky man. He had always dreamed of catching that perfect wave –but when it finally came along, it was a nightmare. He was on his surfboard when he was swept up by a tsunami wave.
    “It was really terrible because I was surfing, I was really surfing on a wave I wasn’t supposed to be on,” he said. “As an experienced surfer, when I saw the wave come I realized something was wrong, but I couldn’t escape because my surfboard was tied to my ankle.”
    His wife Vicki and son Jake looked on in horror from a hotel balcony as he crashed towards the shore. Luckily , he stayed on top of his board until he reached the hotel , jumped off and got to safety as the ocean rolled back to feed a much larger tsunami wave on its way . The family regrouped and ran to safety just minutes before a giant tsunami wave 10 meters high.

    SAN FRANCISCO—A phone app (应用程序) in San Francisco gives information about open parking spots. City officials in San Francisco introduced the app to try to reduce traffic jams in the city, but some say it raises safety concerns.
    In this city, drivers searching for parking spots lead to 30 percent of all downtown jams, city officials think. Now San Francisco has found a solution—a phone app for spot-seekers that displays information about areas with available spaces. The system, introduced last month, relies on wireless sensors (感应器) fixed in streets and city garages that can tell within seconds if a spot has opened up.
    Monique Soltani, a TV reporter, said she and her sister spent 25 minutes on Friday trying to park. “We were praying to the parking god that we’d find a spot,” she said. “If we had the app, we would not have to pray to the parking god.” But the system could come with serious consequences.
    Some people say that drivers searching for parking could end up focusing on their phones, not the road. “It could be really distracting (使分心的),” said Daniel Simons, a professor of psychology at the University of Illinois.
    City officials acknowledge the potential problem. They are urging drivers to pull over before they use the city’s iPhone app, or to do so before they leave home. Nathaniel Ford, executive director of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, said safety could actually improve if drivers quickly found a spot instead of circling and getting frustrated.
    San Francisco has put sensors into 7,000 parking spots and 12,250 spots in city garages. If spaces in an area open up, the sensors communicate wirelessly with computers that in turn make the information available to app users within a minute, said Mr. Ford, of the transportation agency. On the app, a map shows which blocks have lots of places (blue) and which are full (red).
    More than 12,000 people have downloaded San Francisco’s app, which is available now only for the iPhone but which city officials say they hope to bring to all similar devices.
    When it is started up, the city’s parking app warns drivers not to use the system while in motion. But safety advocates said that might not be sufficient. After all, they say, texting while driving is illegal in California and in many states, but a number of surveys, including one by the Pew Research Center, show that many Americans do it anyway.
    Elizabeth Stampe, executive director of Walk San Francisco, a pedestrian advocacy group, said she hoped the new parking app would lead to fewer accidents.
    “It’s an innovative idea,” she said. “The safe way for people to use the device is for them to pull over, which they know they should do. The question is whether they will.”
    But Ms. Soltani, the TV reporter, said using the app would probably join the group of activities already performed by drivers.
    “We’re already looking at Google Maps and Facebook on the phone while we drive,” she said. “Aren’t we always looking at something on our phone, or changing the radio, or drinking coffee? You’re always slightly distracted when you’re driving.”
    小题1:What is the phone app mentioned in the text mainly aimed at?
    A．Making full use of the parking spots.
    B．Making the traffic flow smoothly.
    C．Preventing traffic accidents.
    D．Benefiting iPhone users.
    小题2:According to the text, San Francisco city officials ______.
    A．don’t consider the app distracting
    B．advise drivers to park cars slowly
    C．are aware of the app’s disadvantages
    D．believe more parking spots are needed
    小题3:How do drivers locate the parking spots?
    A．Sensors"computers"app.B．App"computers"sensors.
    C．Sensors"app"computers.D．Computers"app"sensors.
    小题4:The phone app mentioned in the text ______.
    A．is a bit slow in reacting
    B．hasn’t been put into service
    C．was introduced several years ago
    D．can’t be downloaded to all phones
    小题5:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
    A．Daniel Simons thinks the app convenient.
    B．San Francisco will put more sensors into use.
    C．Most drivers open the app once they start their cars.
    D．Nathaniel Ford doesn’t doubt the practical use of the app.

    March 22, 2011---Most restaurants in the United States offer their customers a glass of tap water at no charge with their meal, but this week many restaurants are asking dinners to pay a dollar, or more, for a glass of water. Cards on their tables explain that this small amount helps bring clean water to children around the world. It’s called the UNICEF Tap Project.
    “UNICEF’s Tap Project is really all about bringing attention to the fact that over 900 million people around the globe do not have access to good, clean, healthy drinking water,” says Cary Stem, who heads the US Fund for UNICEF. She adds that water-borne illness is the second-highest cause of preventable childhood death in the world.
    “Each and every day approximately 4,100 children die just because they don’t have that access - 4,100 every single day.”
    The public service campaign encourages people to help change that statistic with a simple, affordable action: paying a dollar to get a glass of tap water at a restaurant.
    “One dollar buys enough good, clean water for a child for 40 days,” Stem says.
    “The tap project has expanded since it began five years ago with 300 restaurants in New York City. This year, Stem says, about 3,000 restaurants across the country are participating in the campaign. We raised about $2.5 million over the last five years of this campaign,” says Stem. “Last year, we raised over $1 million for the first time. This year we’re hoping to top that.”
    Stem credits the continued success of the campaign to an army of volunteers who support the tap project and raise money in their communities.
    The UNICEF Tap Project is promoting its efforts with a simple motto: when you take water, give water. Currently, UNICEF works in more than 100 countries around the world to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools and communities.
    Stem hopes that, by participating in the project, more Americans will realize that what they often take for granted is a precious and scarce resource in many other parts of the world.
    小题1:Restaurants began to charge for tap water to _______.
    A．increase their profit
    B．urge customers to save water
    C．raise people’s awareness of the world water problem
    D．collect money for those without access to safe water
    小题2:We can learn from the text that the Tap Project ________.
    A．began in New York City
    B．was started by volunteers
    C．is hoping to collect $2.5 million this year
    D．provides help for 1,000 countries in the world
    小题3:It can be learned that _______.
    A．the Tap Project began in 2006
    B．America suffers a serious problem
    C．4,100 children die of water pollution every year
    D．water-borne illnesses are the biggest killer of children
    小题4:How does Cary Stem feel about the work of the Tap Project?
    A．ConcernedB．HopefulC．DisappointedD．Angry

    Edward Snowden—the fugitive （逃亡者） former U．S．intelligence employee —appears to be stuck in Moscow, unable to leave without a valid American passport, according to interviews Sunday with two men who had sought to aid him: WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange and Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa．
    Snowden, 30, arrived at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo International Airport last weekend, after previously taking refuge in Hong Kong． Moscow was only supposed to be a stopover．WikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy organization, had said Snowden was headed on to Ecuador—whose president has been critical of the United States — and that he would seek asylum there．
    Now, however, both men said Snowden is unable to leave．
    "The United States, by canceling his passport, has left him for the moment trapped in Russia," said Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, on ABC ' s " This Week With George Stephanopoulos"． The United States canceled Snowden' s passport last weekend． Assange criticized the United States, saying: " To take a passport from a young man in a difficult situation like that is a disgusting action．"
    President Correa spoke to the Associated Press in Puerto Viejo, Ecuador． For now, he told the AP, Snowden was "under the care of the Russian authorities． "
    "This is the decision of Russian authorities． He doesn't have a passport． I don't know the Russian laws, I don' t know if he can leave the airport, but I understand that he can' t," Correa said． He said that the case was now out of Ecuador' s hands． "If Snowden arrives at an Ecuadoran Embassy, we' 11 analyze his request for asylum．"
    Snowden traveled from Hong Kong to Moscow on his U．S．passport． Although the U．S．had already revoked it, Hong Kong authorities said they hadn’t received the official request to cancel the passport before Snowden left．
    An official at the Ecuadoran Embassy in London had also issued a letter of safe passage for Snowden． But Snowden apparently did not use it for his trip to Moscow．
    And it doesn’t appear that the Ecuadoran government would make a similar gesture again．
    On Sunday, Correa told the AP that an Ecuadoran official at that embassy had committed "a serious error" by issuing the first letter without consulting officials back home． Correa said the consul would be punished, although he didn’t specify how．
    Correa' s tone seemed to have shifted after a conversation with Vice President Biden on Friday．Where Correa had earlier been aggressive and determined, he now voiced respect for U．S．legal procedures．
    小题1:Edward Snowden is a person who once worked in a federal department ______．
    A．to assist the governor of one state
    B．to collect information secretly for the US
    C．to organize overseas promotion campaign
    D．to educate intelligence employees
    小题2:Which of the following word can take the place of the underlined word in Para．2 ?
    A．shelter．B．praise．C．position．D．forgiveness．
    小题3:By what means did Edward Snowden leave Hong Kong for Moscow' s Sheremetyevo International Airport?
    A．A letter of safe passage from the Ecuadoran Embassy．
    B．Permission from Chinese government
    C．Invitation of the Russian authorities．
    D．An American passport．
    小题4:What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
    A．Edward Snowden will live in Moscow forever．

    London will stage its biggest political funeral in almost half a century on Wednesday when Britain's governing elite join the Queen and global leaders to bid farewell to former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, better known as the “ Iron Lady".
    In an event comparable to that of Winston Churchill's funeral in 1965, Thatcher's coffin will be carried on a horse-drawn gun carriage through streets lined with admirers from parliament to the city's most famous cathedral.
    The bells of London's symbolic Big Ben clock tower will fall silent for the first time since Churchill's funeral and more than 700 men and women from Britain's armed forces will honor a woman who led them to victory in the 1982 Falklands War as foreign politicians from around 170 nations look on.
    Surveys have shown that many are unhappy that the estimated l0-million($15 million)pound bill for the funeral is being picked up by the taxpayer, while some left-wing lawmakers say the luxurious funeral is too expensive.                                                                            
    But her admirers, of whom there are many in her party and in southern England, argue that her historical profile deserves such a funeral. She was the country's first and only woman premier, was Britain's longest-serving prime minister of the 20th century, and won three general elections.
    More than 2,300 mourners will attend including 11 serving prime ministers from around the world, the British government's entire cabinet, two heads of state and 17 foreign ministers.
    But there will be notable absences. Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev is too ill to attend and Nancy Reagan, the widow of Thatcher's great U·S. ally Ronald Reagan, is also unable to come.
    Thatcher struck up a close relationship with Reagan during the Cold War, backed the first President  George Bush during the 1991 Gulf War, and was among the first to discover that Gorbachev was a man she could "do business with. ”
    Covered in the red, white and blue British flag, Thatcher's coffin lay overnight in a 13th-century church in Britain's parliament, a forum she dominated for years.
    小题1:From the passage we know that Big Ben clock tower will fall silent to        .
    A．get repaired for the first time
    B．honour the passing away of the great woman
    C．tell the specific time to the public

    小题2:Who that are still alive will be absent from the funeral?
    A．Mikhail Gorbachev and Nancy Reagan.
    B．Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan.
    C．Nancy Reagan and Ronald Reagan.
    D．George Bush and Mikhail Gorbachev.
    小题3:From the passage we can learn that Margaret Thatcher was       .
    A．strong and smartB．weak and disappointing
    C．aggressive and warlikeD．stubborn and luxurious
    小题4:Which of the following might serve as the best title of the passage?
    A．The legend of Thatcher, the “Iron Lady".
    B．Why Big Ben falls silent for the first time?
    C．Who will pay for such a luxurious funeral?

    In recent years, the world has made progress in reducing deaths among children under the age of five. A new report says an estimated 6.9 million children worldwide died before their fifth birthday. That compares to about twelve million in1990.
    The report says child mortality rates have fallen in all areas. It says the number of deaths is down by at least 50 percent in eastern, western and southeastern Asia. The number also fell in North Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean.
    Ties Boerma is head of the WHO’s Department of Health Statistics and Informatics. He says most child deaths happen in just a few areas.
    TIES BOERMA: “Sub-Saharan Africa and southern Asia face the greatest challenges in child survival. More than eighty percent of child deaths in the world occur in these two regions. About half of child deaths occur in just five countries—India, which actually takes twenty-four percent of the global total; Nigeria, eleven percent; the Democratic Republic of Congo, seven percent; Pakistan, five percent and China, four percent of under-five deaths in the world.”
    Ties Boerma notes that, in developed countries, one child in one hundred fifty-two dies before his or her fifth birthday. But south of the Sahara Desert, one out of nine children dies before the age of five. In Asia, the mortality rate is one in sixteen.  
    The report lists the top five causes of death among children under five worldwide. They are pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria and problems both before and during birth.
    Tessa Wardlaw is with the U-N Children’s Fund. She is pleased with the progress being made in Sub-Saharan Africa. The area has the highest under-five mortality rate in the world. But she says the rate of decline in child deaths has more than doubled in Africa.
    TESSA WARDLAW: “We welcome the widespread progress in child survival, but we importantly want to stress that there’s a lot of work that remains to be done. There’s unfinished business and the fact is that today on average, around nineteen thousand children are still dying every day from largely preventable causes.”
    The World Health Organization says one way to solve these problems is to make sure health care services are available to women. In this way, medical problems can be avoided or treated when identified.
    小题1:Since 1990, the number of the children who died before 5 in the world has dropped by about__________.
    A．6,900,000B．12,000,000C．1,200,000D．5,100,000
    小题2: What does the underlined word “mortality” ( in Paragraph 2)mean?
    A．illnessB．reductionC．deathD．problem
    小题3:According to the passage, the readers are likely to believe that __________.
    A．child mortality rates have fallen just in five areas
    B．Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest under-five mortality rate in the world
    C．in developed countries, no children die before the age of five
    D．the world has made little progress in reducing the rates of child mortality
    小题4:______ is the top-one cause of death among children under five worldwide.
    A．Global warming B．MalariaC．PneumoniaD．Diarrhea
    小题5:What will be probably referred to in the following paragraph?
    A．Women do not want to have babies.
    B．How more health care services are available to women.
    C．Medical problems are completely solved.
    D．The World Health Organization.

    The Americans have been voted the world’s “funniest nationality” ---the one “best at making people laugh” ---in a global poll (民意调查), which also names the Germans the “least funny” nationality and the British “not as funny as they think”.
    30,000 people across 15 countries were asked to name both the “funniest” and “least funny” nationality in a poll conducted by Badoo.com, the world’s largest social network for meeting new people, with 119 million users worldwide.
    The Americans were voted the funniest nationality, ahead of the Spanish --- the funniest Europeans --- in second, Italians in third and British in seventh.
    The voting for the “least funny” nationality confirmed the view of America’s Mark Twain that “a German joke is no laughing matter”. The Germans won, ahead of the Russians and Turks. The stereotype of German humourlessness is believed to derive from their reputation for efficiency, punctuality and rationality(理性). Examples of German jokes include: “Yesterday, I met my friend Horst at the hospital. He’d swallowed a sponge. He says it doesn’t hurt but he’s always thirsty.”
    “When we meet someone new, one of the first things we notice is whether they make us laugh”, says Lloyd Price, Badoo’s Marketing Director. “America is a worthy poll winner”, says Price. “It’s the world’s only comedy superpower.”
    The British pride themselves on their humour but learn from the poll that they’re not as funny as they think. They placed just seventh of 15 --- behind the Brazilians, French and Mexicans.
    小题1:According to the poll, which is the right order from the funniest nationality to the least funny one?
    A．Spanish, Americans, French, Mexicans, British
    B．Americans, Spanish, Italians, Brazilians, French
    C．British, Mexicans, Brazilians, Spanish, Americans
    D．Italians, French, British, Mexicans, Brazilians
    小题2:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A．The poll was conducted among 119 million people by Badoo. com.
    B．Spanish are the funniest nationality in Europe.
    C．That Germans are named the “least funny” nationality is because of Mark Twain.
    D．Some people think that British are funny while others think the opposite in the poll.
    小题3:Which can be the substitute of the word “derive” in the fourth paragraph?
    A．acquireB．sufferC．translateD．accomplish
    小题4:What is the author’s purpose of telling us a German joke?
    A．The author wants to show that Germans are good at telling jokes.
    B．The author wants to confirm what Mark Twain said.
    C．The author wants to prove that Germans are not funny at all.
    D．The author just wants to say that swallowing a sponge is no harm.
    小题5:It seems that the best title for this passage is ______.
    A．The Funniest Nationality
    B．A Global Poll Conducted by Badoo.Com
    C．Americans Won the Funniest Nationality
    D．Americans Voted “Funniest Nation”, Germans “Least Funny”

    Last week Adele's second album, 21, sold 257,000 copies in the UK, a sales figure that would look incredible as an opening sales week for any album by any global superstar. The fact that the album was celebrating its 10th week at No.1, and that each of the previous nine weeks it had sold over 100,000 copies, makes what Adele has achieved look miraculous. The last female singer to spend that long at No.1 in the UK was Madonna in 1990 with her greatest hits compilation, The Immaculate Collection.
    For Adele, the success of 21 is part of a perfect storm of talent, timing and a connection that went beyond gender, age and credibility. But what does it say about the state of the music industry? Does Adele's success signal a return to the MOR(适合大众口味的音乐) musical depression, when the likes of James Blunt dominated the charts? Her success may well lead to a great many similar acts aiming for an MOR audience, but that's more the fault of an industry desperate to recreate any kind of success by creating poor copies until the world shouts "stop now".
    What seems to have set Adele apart is her apparent ordinariness, besides that incredible voice. While Gaga parades around in a dress made of meat and Beyonce orbits a world out of touch to the majority of most human beings, Adele's chain-smoking, girl-you'd-like-to-go-to-the-pub-with persona stands out. Even for a British act, her ordinariness goes against trend, with fellow Jessie J adopting a very American habit of over-emoting, talking about a "journey" and making the idea of being a pop star seem fairly difficult.
    It's this universality and broad appeal that's helped her translate talent into sales. While the first single from 21, Rolling in the Deep, appealed to Radio 1 listeners and bloggers, the second single, Someone Like You, is so successful that silenced the grand O2 Arena during this year's Brit Awards. The press can write pages and pages in that there's enough of a connection of musicians – Rick Rubin worked on the album, there's a cover of the Cure, Mumford & Sons were an influence – while the gossip magazines have been excited by the fact that the album is one long break-up record, eager to find the ex.
    In 1990, Madonna was a global superstar with a back catalogue of era-defining hits to her name. She was untouchable and, tellingly, unknowable. She was (and still is) a megastar, but a megastar of a different age. These days, we want to know a bit more about our artists; that they have relationship problems, walk their dog. Her selling point and appeal is precisely the fact that she exists at the point between everyday ordinariness and pop star.
    For now, Adele's success should be celebrated, especially for becoming an unlikely global star on her own terms. The danger is that we're headed for a lot of fairly boring pop, a situation that led to the "birth" of Gaga a few years back. Pop goes in cycles and it feels like we're headed back towards the very middle of MOR.
    小题1:Adele’s achievement seems unbelievable for the reason that ____________.
    A．the sales of her second album achieved an incredible success last week in the UK
    B．her second album ranked first in a row with the incredible average sales per week
    C．Madonna was the last female singer in the UK to stay at No. 1 as long as she did
    D．she is such an ordinary singer with so fascinating a voice in the music industry
    小题2:According to the author, the success of Adele’s second album __________________.
    A．to a large extent depends on her apparent talent for music
    B．is because of her extraordinariness and the wonderful voice
    C．lies in gift, timing and something beyond sex, age and trust
    D．is largely due to the state of the music industry currently
    小题3:Compared with other female pop stars, what does the author think of Adele?
    A．She stands out in a totally different way from Gaga and Beyonce.
    B．She and Madonna are contemporary megastars in music.
    C．Only she and Madonna spent that long at No.1 in the UK.
    D．Jessie J and she both have an American habit of expressing themselves.
    小题4:What helped Adele successfully turned her gift of singing into sales?
    A．Her musical talent.
    B．The joint work of musicians in the album.
    C．Her incredible voice.
    D．Her universality and broad appeal.
    小题5:The author thinks that the current musical trend in the UK is _______________.
    A．satisfyingB．disappointingC．dangerousD．desperate
