    Holidaymakers who are bored with baking beaches and overheated hotel rooms head for a big igloo. Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world’s first igloo hotel. Built in a small town in Lapland, it has been attracting lots of visitors, but soon the fun will be over.
    In two weeks’ time Bergqvist’s ice creation(作品) will be nothing more than a pool of water. “We don’t see it as a big problem,” he says. “We just look forward to replacing it.”
    Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was so successful that he designed the present one, which measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base; when the snow froze, the base was removed. “The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door,” he says.
    After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. With no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxing(轻松的) hotel break. “It’s great fun,” Bergqvist explains, “As well as a good start in survival training.”
    The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt: it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms. “You can get a lot of people in,” explains Bergqvist. “The beds are three meters wide by two meters long, and can fit at least four at one time.”

    A．an art exhibition was about to open

    D．more hotel rooms were needed
    小题2: When the writer says “the fun will be over,” he refers to the fact that ________.
    A．hotel guests will be frightened at the thought of the hard test
    B．a bigger igloo will replace the present one
    C．holidaymakers will soon get tired of the big igloo
    D．Bergqvist’s hotel will soon become a pool of water
    小题3:According to the text, the first thing to do in building an igloo is ________.
    A．to gather a pool of water
    B．to prepare a wooden base
    C．to cover the ground with ice
    D．to pile a large amount of snow
    小题4: When guests leave the igloo hotel they will receive a paper stating that ________.
    A．they have had a taste of adventure
    B．they have had an ice-snow holiday
    C．they have had great fun sleeping on ice
    D．they have visited Lapland

    Bamboo is one of the nature’s most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.
    Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains.
    Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.
    Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables(绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.
    In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.
    小题1:How is bamboo like grass?
    A．It is thin and easy to cut.B．It grows everywhere.

    B．a bamboo plant may grow 4.5 meters in three days
    C．the bamboo plant changes its colors when it grows
    D．a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago
    小题4:Why did the engineers teach the poor farmers in Africa to make use of bamboo?
    A．Because it is cheap. B．Because it is colorful.
    C．Because it drills fast.D．Because it is used by Asians.

    Nearly 600,000 Americans lost their jobs this past month, pushing the nation’s unemployment rate (失业率) to 7.6 percent. But not all of those fired workers are sitting at home, reading the job advertisements and waiting for the phone to ring. Thousands of people are returning to school, making public colleges and universities among the few bright places in the disappointing US economy.
    At a time when many Americans have had their work hours cut or have even lost their jobs, Sherian Huddleston is working overtime. She works at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) where she oversees (监督) the enrollment (注册) of new students. The university’s population grew by 800 students this term —an increase of 4 percent over last spring’s enrollment. Huddleston says seeing the enrollment rise in a failing economy is not unexpected. "When people are out of work," she points out, "they will ask 'What else can I do?’ or 'What other careers can I follow?’ They will often return to school if they have not completed a degree before."
    Older returning students aren’t the only ones increasing the enrollment at MTSU. Huddleston says she’s also seeing an increase in student transfers (转移). "Students who went out of state, or even within the state, to more expensive schools are transferring to public schools to make use of the lower cost of going to school here," she explains.
    小题1:Which is the best title for the passage?
    A．The Falling American Economy
    B．College Enrollment up in a Down Economy
    C．Colleges Have More Students Than Before
    D．Going to College Is No Longer Difficult
    小题2:According to the passage, many students return to school ______.
    A．to make more moneyB．to read job advertisements
    C．to complete a degreeD．to ask their schoolmates for help
    小题3:Many students are transferring to public schools mainly because ______.
    A．public schools provide better education
    B．public schools offer better jobs to their students
    C．they don’t want to be influenced by the falling economy
    D．the cost of public schools is lower and they can save money
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE about Sherian Huddleston?
    A．She is working more hours than before because of the worsening economy.
    B．She is a student of Middle Tennessee State University.
    C．She disagrees with those who are returning to school.
    D．She is surprised to see the enrollment go up.

    More than half of teachers in a UK survey said they thought plagiarism from the Internet is a problem.

Gill Bullen from Itchen College in Southampton, for example, said pieces handed in by two students were the same and significantly better than either of them could have done.” “Not only that, the essays given in didn’t quite answer the title question I had set.” A teacher from Leeds said, “ I had one piece of work so obviously ‘cut and pasted’ that it still contained ads from the Web page” Connie Robinson from Stockton Riverside College, Stockton, said, “ With less able students, it is easy to spot plagiarism as the writing style changes mid-assignment, but with more able students, it is sometimes necessary for teachers to carry out Internet research to find out the source of the plagiarism.” Mary Bousted, general secretary of the ALT, said, “Teachers are struggling under a mountain of cut-and-pasting to spot whether work was the student’s own or plagiarism.” She called for strong policies to oppose plagiarism, and asked for help from the government in providing resources and techniques to delete cheats.

    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 calling habits
    In fact, it’s likely that some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, 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.
    Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it’s important to reveal yourself partly to friends, family and lovers at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to know 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. 60 percent of respondents say they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me”.
    But people say one thing and do another. Only a small number of Americans change any behavior in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. Privacy economist Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will give up personal information like social security numbers just to get their hands on a 50-cents-off coupon. 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 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 arguments between friends.
    小题2:Why does the author say “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret”?
    A．Modern society has finally developed 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3:According to the passage, privacy is like health in that _____.
    A．people will make every effort to keep it
    B．its importance is hardly understood
    C．It is something that can easily be lost
    D．people don’t value it until they lose it
    小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Value your health.
    B．Treasure your privacy.
    C．Boundaries are important between friends.
    D．The information age has its own shortcomings.

    There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington, D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Luvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without building, or even a wall for its drawing and paintings. FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone. You can call the telephone number of a university computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings. Robert Shostak is direction of the new computer museum. He says he starts the museum because computer artists had no place to show their works.
    A computer artist can only record his pictures electronically and send the records to others to see on their computers. He can also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needs an expensive laser printer (激光印刷) . Robert Shostak says the electronic（电子的） museum is mostly for art or computer students at school and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostake said the FIU museum will take computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.
    小题1:The main purpose of this text is to give information about_______.
    A. museums throughout the world
    B. an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.A.
    C. art exhibitions（展览会） in Florida International University
