    In China, people usually set off firecrackers to celebrate Spring Festival. But this year seemed very quiet. It was really different. A man called Zhang Wei was asked by a reporter in an interview. He said that his friends and he hadn’t set off a single firecracker.

    All Ric O Barry wants is to stop the dolphin­killing, so he is headed to this seaside Japanese town, Taiji.The American activist, who is the star of a new award­winning documentary that portrays the dolphin­killing here, got an unwelcome reception when he showed up here this week for the start of the annual hunt.
    His movie, The Cove(海豚湾), directed by National Geographic photographer Louie Psihoyos, was released in the United States a month ago but has not yet to come out in Japan.
    Scenes in the film, some of which were shot secretly, show fishermen banging on metal poles stuck in the water to create a wall of sound that scares the dolphins— which have supersensitive sonar(声纳系统)—and sends them fleeing into a cove.
    There, the fishermen sometimes pick a few to be sold for aquarium shows, for as much as $150,000. They kill the others, spearing(刺) the animals repeatedly until the water turns red. The meat from one dolphin is worth about 50,000 yen, and is sold at supermarkets across Japan.
    Greenpeace and other groups have tried to stop the hunt for years.Activists hope The Cove will bring the issue to more people internationally—and eventually in Japan.
    Already，the Australian town of Broome dropped its 28­year sister­city relationship with Taiji last month，partly because of the movie.
    “Some regions have a tradition of eating dolphin meat，” said fisheries official Toshinori Uoya. “Dolphin­killing may be negative for our international image, but it is not something orders can stop.”
    The town government in Taiji—which has made whales and dolphins its trademark—refused to comment about The Cove, or the growing international criticism against dolphin­killing.
    Many in Taiji take the dolphin hunt for granted as part of everyday life. They are defensive about The Cove，seeing themselves as powerless victims of overseas pressure to end a simple and honest way of making a living.
    小题1:Ric O Barry made The Cove because he wanted to ________.
    A．stop the dolphin­killing
    B．win an international award
    C．support Greenpeace's efforts
    D．make Taiji well­known in the world
    小题2:Viewers can learn from The Cove ________.
    A．the advanced techniques to catch dolphins
    B．the cruel and bloody dolphin­killing
    C．the beautiful Japanese seaside town Taiji
    D．the sale of dolphin meat around the world
    小题3:What is the response to The Cove on the Japanese side?
    A．Taiji broke up with its western sister­city Broome.
    B．Japanese officials decided to ban dolphin­killing.
    C．The town government in Taiji kept silent on criticism.
    D．Most Japanese people were against eating dolphin meat.
    小题4:What does the underlined word “defensive” probably mean?
    A．Feeling guilty for killing dolphins.
    B．Protecting themselves against criticism.
    C．Attacking those against dolphin­killing.
    D．Making the determination to change.
    小题5:What can we infer from the passage?
    A．Many people in Japan have seen The Cove in the cinema.
    B．The Cove has not influenced Japan's international image.
    C．Taiji's dolphin­killing industry has been seriously damaged.
    D．The Cove has brought international attention to dolphin­killing.

    Who is your role model? Normally the answer to this question would be anyone around you who you find truly inspiring. It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. , who have proven to be strong and intelligent people.
    However, in today’s world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionable and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because stars’ actions are so well documented by the media that it seems to grab our attention and turns it to following stars’ lives. Much of the reports about stars is shocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that aren’t right for teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is described beyond truth to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level.
    However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We can’t always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have control over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else.
    Now, who ever said stars are role models? Whether they choose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every move they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be imitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want to. Why should someone who doesn’t want to be setting an example set one? So，should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? It’s our responsibility as teens to know right from wrong, and it’s time for us to take responsibility for our actions. In doing so，we will lean toward those inspiring people that want to be setting an example, and follow in their steps to be like them.

    Where Are We Going, Dad? has become one of China's most popular television shows, since its debut (首次登场) in October, averaging more than 600 million viewers each week. Sponsorship rights (冠名权) for the show's second season were sold for 312 million yuan (about $ 50 million), more than ten times higher than the rights to the first season.
    What accounts for its popularity? The show features a new generation of Chinese fathers, who, as part of the country’s new middle class, have faced more problems with modern child-raising techniques such as taking an active role with their children.
    Part of the appeal of the show is the chance to throw a glance at the lives of Chinese celebrities (名流) and their children. Audiences are interested in watching the failed attempts of celebrity dads making dinner, doing hair, and disciplining (管教) children -- tasks often left to mothers in a society still influenced by the saying that “men rule outside and women are inside.” “In traditional Chinese culture, fathers are strict and mothers are kind. But on the show, we see fathers who are much gentler on their kids and more involved in their upbringing, ” said Li Minyi, an associate professor. “This show raises an important question for modern Chinese society -- what is the role of fathers in today’s China?”
    After each episode (集) goes to air, the Chinese internet explodes with comments on each celebrity's parenting style.
    Actor Guo Tao tries to communicate with his son, Shitou, but is seen as a more traditional Chinese father, and has been criticised online for being too harsh. Zhang Liang, a supermodel, is an audience favorite for treating his son, Tiantian, more like a friend. The show’s most famous celebrity, Lin Zhiying, a film star, was originally praised as patient with his son Kimi. But as the season progresses, fans begin to criticise him for raising a spoiled, undisciplined boy. Director Wang Yuelun is at a complete loss when it comes to care of his daughter’s hair.
    Even the People's Daily is pleased with the success of the show.
    小题1:Sponsorship rights for the show’s first season were sold for about______.
    A．312 million yuanB．50 million yuan
    C．31 million yuanD．600 million yuan
    小题2:According to the passage, the show______.
    A．gives audiences the chance to raise the star's children themselves
    B．invites some famous film stars to take part in it
    C．lets people think about the role of fathers in modern families
    D．raises people's concern about women's role in the society
    小题3:The underlined word “harsh" in the fifth paragraph most probably means “______”.
    A．carelessB．strictC．clumsyD．kind
    小题4:According to the writer, ______is the most successful father.
    A．Guo TaoB．Zhang Liang C．Lin ZhiyingD．Wang Yuelun

    I have nothing to say about whether or not “A Day Without Immigrants(移民)” had a positive or negative effect on the question of how the federal government should deal with the huge population of undocumented illegal immigrants in this country. I'll leave that question to others.
    Regardless of how you feel about the event, one conclusion is obvious. Using the theme of “A Day Without” as a way to focus national attention on a particular subject is a great idea, and could serve as a method for increasing public consciousness about other issues that affect daily life in America. Here are my top three examples:
    “A Day Without Speeding.” How hard could this be? If all drivers would strictly obey every posted speed limit on highways, downtown, on neighborhood streets, and in parking lots for one 24-hour cycle, the benefits would be huge.
    “A Day Without Losing Your Temper.” A higher degree of difficulty here, and I know that from personal experience. When something goes wrong at home or on the job, there may be brief satisfaction in yelling or kicking the furniture, but bursting into anger usually has nothing to do with the approach to the heart of the matter.
    “A Day Without Having All The Answers.” I would like to get a break from hearing anyone speak the phrase, “Here’s what you’re doing wrong.” Right now the US is packed with citizens who believe they can point out the cause of every single problem in existence and then solve it in a moment. I believe they need to be quiet sometimes and use their ears instead of their voices.
    I wonder how would average Americans react to such a national pause? Would it be a day of reaction against anger, or joyful celebrations?
    小题1:The first paragraph suggests ________.
    A．the writer is against “A Day Without Immigrants”
    B．immigrants are not equally treated by the US government
    C．the immigrants issue is so complex that the author has to refer to others
    D．some move to America without the permission of the US government
    小题2:The author uses his “top three examples” to________.
    A．criticize the undocumented illegal immigrants in America
    B．show public consciousness of some subjects could be raised
    C．encourage common people to create more similar activities
    D．indicate some bothering issues affecting people’s daily life
    小题3:According to the author, losing one’s temper is ________.
    A．unpleasant B．pointlessC．relaxingD．personal
    小题4:The writer suggests “a day without having all the answers”, because ________.
    A．he thinks the Americans are too proud
    B．he wants to have a chance to speak his mind
    C．he expects others to keep quiet and calm
    D．he hopes to get a break from the problems

    Until the 1980s, the American homeless population is mainly made up of older males. Today, homelessness strikes much younger part of society. In fact, a 25-city survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors in 1987 found that families with children make up the fastest growing part of the homeless population. Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient(变化无常的) and frequently frightened student population creates additional problems — both legal and educational — for already overburdened urban school administrators and teachers.
    Estimates of the number of homeless Americans range from 350,000 to three million. Likewise, estimates of the number of homeless school children vary radically. A U.S. Department of Education report, based on state estimates, states that there are 220,000 homeless school-age children, about a third of whom do not attend school on a regular basis. But the National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that there are at least two times as many homeless children, and that less than half of them attend school regularly.
    One part of the homeless population that is particularly difficult to count consists of the “throwaway” youths who have been cast of their homes. The Elementary School Center in New York City estimates that there are 1.5 million of them, many of whom are not treated as children because they do not stay in family shelters and tend to live by themselves on the streets.
    Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children. The educational provisions（规定） of the McKinney Act are based on the belief that all homeless children have the right to a free, appropriate education.
    小题1:It is implied in the first paragraph that ____.
    A．the writer himself is homeless, even in his eighties
    B．many older homeless residents are going on strike in 25 cities
    C．there is a serious shortage of academic facilities
    D．homeless children are denied the opportunity of receiving free education
    小题2:The National Coalition for the homeless believes that the number of homeless children is _____.
    A．350,000B．1,500,000C．440,000D．110,000
    小题3:One part of the homeless population is difficult to estimate. The reason might well be ____.
    A．the homeless children are too young to be treated as children
    B．the homeless population is growing rapidly
    C．the homeless children usually stay outside school
    D．some homeless children are deserted by their families
    小题4:The McKinney Act is mentioned in this passage in order to show that ___.
    A．the educational problems of homeless children are being recognized
    B．the estimates on homeless children are hard to determine
    C．the address of grade-school children should be located
    D．all homeless people should have free education

    A survey reveals that employees in China say they are not engaged in their jobs. Judging by the survey data, many Chinese workplaces are black holes of misery and despair.
    Only 6% of Chinese employees said they are "engaged" in their jobs, according to a global Gallup survey released this month. China's numbers equal the numbers out of war-weary（厌战的） Iraq.
    Workers across all income levels and industries were surveyed by Gallup in China, defined by Gallup to mean they were "psychologically committed to their jobs and likely to be making positive contributions to their organizations".
    Out of 94 countries polled, only six countries scored lower rates of job engagement than China, including Tunisia, Israel and Syria. Unsurprisingly, 0% of Syrians admitted to being engaged at work.
    In a related survey, China ranked near the bottom in a poll measuring job satisfaction among 22 Asian countries. Only 49% of Chinese respondents said they were happy in their jobs.
    Part of the problem, I suspect, is that very few in China have the luxury to pursue a career that truly interests them.
    Even university graduates often feel they have no choice but to choose the positions with the government or state-run enterprises, since those jobs are thought to be stable.
    That makes those who are happy at work in China a rare find indeed.
    小题1:What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
    A．The people in Israel are not engaged in their jobs.
    B．People in Syria are more engaged at work than the Chinese.
    C．Most Chinese people are happy in work.
    D．China ranked the top in the job engagement.
    小题2:What is the meaning of the underlined word “luxury” in Paragraph 6?
    A．happinessB．dreamC．willingD．courage
    小题3:According to the author, why most Chinese dislike their jobs?
    A．Because they don’t take the jobs they really like
    B．Because many Chinese workplaces are full of misery and despair.
    C．Because they have no choice but to choose the stable jobs.
    D．Because they are not psychologically committed to their jobs.
    小题4:Which of the following jobs are the university graduates nowadays more likely to choose?
    A．LawyersB．Civil Servants (公务员)
    C．self-made menD．Doctors

    Recently the busiest person on the Internet is absolutely Yuanfang, a fictional figure from the Chinese TV series “Detective Di Renjie”. In the TV series, Li was often asked by Di, “How do you see it, Yuanfang?” Then, the dialogues between them help advance the plot. Now, the casual pet phrase is used as many as 2.5 million times by netizens in a single day, according to statistics.
    In fact, it is not the first popular sentence pattern on the Internet. Many other types of popular network words include those evolved from “the slogans of Vancl(凡客网)” and actor’s lines of “The Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan”.
    The explosive spread of the sentence “How do you see it, Yuanfang?” again proved the vast power of the network spread. The appearance of a buzzword(流行词) on the Internet may be coincidental, but the spread of numerous buzzwords has started a social and cultural phenomenon. It is more noticeable that the spread is not a deliberate choice but by chance. Usually, everyone has known about it, except the one concerned.
    The appearance of buzzwords is resulting from the agreement of netizens. If something is new and interesting enough, it will cause public attention.
    The rise of these buzzwords also benefits from their strong “adhesive(粘着的) force”. After analyzing these buzzwords, we find that they have a common character, namely “novel in structure but empty in content”. Therefore, any concrete contents can be added in these buzzwords, creating fantastic results.
    Taking the “Yuanfang-style” as an example, its popularity displayed a social mentality of questioning. Although it seems a little funny to ask “Yuanfang”, a fictional character, and some people even find it boring. This way of asking a question reveals a valuable quality-listening. The Internet provides a space for everyone to express their views, but it also causes controversies. What’s your opinion, Yuanfang?
    小题1:We can learn from the passage that Yuanfang        .
    A．is the busiest person in modern industrial societies
    B．plays an important role in a Chinese TV series
    C．is a fictional figure currently popular with netizens
    D．starts a social and cultural phenomenon by himself
    小题2:What does the underlined words “a deliberate choice” in Paragraph3 mean?
    A．a choice made on purposeB．a choice made by accident
    C．a choice done in personD．a choice done at ease
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．The dialogues between Di Renjie and Yuanfang help understand the network buzzwords.
    B．The “Yuanfang-style” suggests once again that the power of the network spread is quite vast.
    C．The spread of numerous buzzwords has started a social development of structure and content.
    D．The result of the netizens’ agreement directly leads to the rise of some socially strong problems.
    小题4:What can we infer from the last passage?
    A．People benefited from the Internet on which they can learn a lot about real society.
    B．People learned about some controversies from the Internet and decided to deal with them.
    C．People provided a space through which they can display their own criminal mentality.
    D．People found out a place where they can question and express their different views.

    Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Website you’ve visited，Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.
    In fact, it’s likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girl friend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen --- the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked.
    Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it's important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times.But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.
    The key question is: Does that matter?
    For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no.”
    When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me.”
    But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon (优惠卷).
    But privacy does matter - at least sometimes. It’s like health: When you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it’s gone do you wish you’d done more to protect it.
    小题1:What does the author mean by saying “the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked” (Lines 3-4, Para. 2)?
    A．People's personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge.
    B．In the 21st century people try every means to look into others’ secrets.
    C．People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age.
    D．Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology.
    小题2:What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?
    A．Friends should open their hearts to each other.
    B．Friends should always be faithful to each other.
    C．There should be a distance even between friends.
    D．There should be fewer disputes between friends.
    小题3:Why does the author say “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret” ( Line5,  para. 3)?
    A．Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.
    B．People leave traces around when using modern technology.
    C．There are always people who are curious about others’ affairs.
    D．Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities.
    小题4:What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?
    A．They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.
    B．They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.
    C．They rely most and more on electronic devices.
    D．They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.
    小题5:According to the passage, privacy is like health in that         .
    A．people will make every effort to keep it
    B．its importance is rarely understood
    C．it is something that can easily be lost
    D．people don’t cherish it until they lose it
