    Over 70 percent of the "double single-child couples" in China need help from their parents in taking care of their own kids, according to a recent survey.
    "Women of China" magazine and a consulting company carried out a survey recently on young couples of the "single-child" generation, the Morning Post reports. The couples surveyed were around 29 and have been married for three years on average, with university education and monthly income of 4.000 yuan ($531). Among them, 43.5 percent have kids.
    Results show that 71.9 percent of the young couples have help from their parents in taking care of their kids.
    Grown up as the "single-child", the only child in a family since the family planning policy was adopted in 1979, this generation depends much on their parents.
    The parents of the "single-child" generation focused more on their children's physical well-being rather than their attitudes and values, according to some psychologists.
    The research also found that the "double single-child couples" follow a rather traditional value system.
    Survey shows that 27.5 percent of them got married after dating for one to two years, 25.2 percent two to five years, and 20 percent didn't tie the knot until dating for five years. Also, 30 percent of the couples were schoolmates, while 43.8 percent were introduced by someone.
    Since their marriage are based on enduring relationships, 65.2 percent of the husbands and 62.9 percent of the wives think that compromise(妥协)and tolerance(宽容)are necessary in their marriage. Meanwhile, 21.7 percent of the husbands and 37.1 percent of the wives support the idea that happiness is the key standard for a marriage.
    小题1:The best title for the passage should be_______.
    A．Mom and Dad, Take Care of My Kid PleaseB．Double Single-child Couples
    C．The Problem of the Single ChildD．A Recent Survey By Woman of China"

    A．The majority of the "double single-child couples" in China depend much on their parents.
    B．The parents of the “single-child” generation more care about their study and education.
    C．One-fifth of the couples surveyed didn't get married until dating for five years.
    D．All the couples surveyed have university education and 30 percent of them were schoolmates
    小题3:Which of the following descriptions about “double single-child couples” is True ?
    A．They are single child in either family and independent of their parents
    B．They are single child in either family and they are dependent on their parents
    C．They have at least two children and can afford to support themselves
    D．They, who were introduced by someone, follow a rather traditional value system
    小题4:According to the passage, we can learn that ______ is necessary in marriage.
    A．wealthB．healthC．understandingD．education

    小题1:A
    小题2:B
    小题3:B
    小题4:C

    小题1:主旨大意题。文章首段就点明了文章的论点----让父母为他们照顾孩子，下文就围绕这一论点具体展开论述。
    小题2:细节理解题。文章第五段可知这些独生子女的父母更多地关心他们的物质生活，而不是他们的态度和价值观，这里的态度和价值观当然包括他们的学习观和教育观，故B项表述错误，符合题意。其他选项文中均有表述。
    小题3:细节理解题。文章第四段提到他们都是独生子女，很依赖他们的父母。
    小题4:推理判断题。最后一段中 “…65.2 percent of the husbands and 62.9 percent of the wives think that compromise and tolerance are necessary in their marriage.”的compromise (妥协)and tolerance(宽容), 也可以理解成 “谅解”, 故C项为正确答案。A、B、D三项文中也有涉及，但都不是

    Sometime today—perhaps several times—Dick Winter will think about the 19-year-old who saved his life.
    Because of this young man, Winter enjoys things like friendships, colours and laughter every day.
    The young man saved Winter's life by signing an organ donor card(器官捐献卡).
    “I can't say thank you enough,” Winter said yesterday at a news conference marking the tenth anniversary of the Multi Organ Transplant program at Toronto General Hospital.
    What Winter knows of the 19?year?old who saved his life is only that he died in a car accident and that his family was willing to honour his wishes and donate
    his organs for transplantation.
    His liver(肝脏) went to Winter, who was dying from liver trouble. “Not a day goes by that I don't think of what a painful thing it must have been for them，”Winter said yesterday.
    “They are very, very special people.”
    Winter, 63, is fitter now than he was 10 years ago, when he got the transplant. He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to
    collect some more next year in Japan.
    “At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it's expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”
    The biggest change for Winter, however, isn't that he has become a competitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates every little thing about
    his life now.
    “I have no time for arguments,” said Winter.
    “You change everything. Material things don't mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”
    Also at yesterday's news conference was Dr Gray Levy, Winter's doctor.
    Levy said he has bitter?sweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic exploits.
    Levy knows that for every recipient(接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren't enough donated organs.
    “For every Mr Winter,we have five to 10 people that will never be given the chance that Mr Winter was given，” Levy said.
    Levy said greater public awareness and more resources are needed. He noted that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive 10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donors' families.
    1.Which of the following is true about the 19-year-old?
    A.He died of liver trouble.
    B.He got wounded in a battle.
    C.He was willing to donate his organs.
    D.He became a recipient of a prize.
    2.What do we learn about Dick Winter?
    A.He is becoming less competitive now.
    B.He is always thinking about his early life.        
    C.He knows all about the young man and his family.
    D.He values friendships more than material things. 
    3.Dr Levy would agree that ________.
    A.Spanish hospitals have more favorable conditions for organ transplant
    B.the Canadian public have realised the importance of organ donation
    C.Spanish hospitals received more money from the donors
    D.Canadian hospitals now have enough donated organs
    4.What's the author's purpose in writing this article?
    A.The public should give more support to organ transplant.
    B.Transplant patients are thankful for the help they receive.
    C.Transplant can change a patient's life greatly.
    D.It is not easy to get organs for transplant.

    One of India's top engineering schools has restricted Internet access in its boarding houses, saying addiction to surfing, gaming and blogging was affecting students' performance, making them lonely and even suicidal.
    Authorities at the best Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai said students had stopped socializing and many were late for morning classes or slept through them. "Now, a student doesn't even know who lives two doors away from him because he is so busy on the Internet," said Prakash Gopalan, dean of student affairs. "The old dormitory culture of companionship and socializing among students is gone. This is not healthy in our opinion."
    IIT-Mumbai, with about 5,000 students, is one of seven IITs across India which are considered to be among the finest engineering schools in the world. They are also a talent pool for global technology giants. But their hard courses, tough competition and lonely campus lifestyle have taken an effect on students. Depressive and dysfunctional (不正常的) lifestyles are known to be common among IIT students, and at least nine have committed suicide in the past five years. Students have unlimited free Internet access in their boarding houses to help them in their studies, but many also use it to surf, chat, download movies and music, blog and for gaming.
    Starting Monday, Internet access will be banned between 11 p.m. and 12.30 p.m. at IIT-Mumbai's 13 boarding buildings to encourage students to sleep early and to try and force them out of their "shells," Gopalan said. But the move has not gone down well with students who say they hate their lives being regulated. "Now they will say we need to listen to a lullaby (摇篮曲) to go to sleep," said Rajiv, an electronics student.
    小题1:Which of the following is not the possible effect of free Internet access on students?
    A．There has been a decline in students’ lessons.

    B．Students are forbidden to surf the Internet.
    C．Internet access is unavailable in deep night.
    D．Students must go to bed before 11 p.m.
    小题3:In the passage the students are told to _____.
    A．sleep through their lessonsB．break away from the Internet
    C．go to sleep along with musicD．stop surfing, make friends
    小题4: We may infer from the last paragraph that _____.
    A．the banning order causes some complaints among the students
    B．all electronics students hate the banning order
    C．more students prefer listening to music to surfing the Internet

    Think about the different ways that people use wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills (风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
    For many centuries, people used windmills to grind (磨碎) wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote (偏僻的) areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were rarely used.
    During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means high costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.
    小题1:From the text we know that windmills _______.
    A．were invented by Europeans armies
    B．have a history of more than 2800 years
    C．used to supply power to electric lights in remote areas
    D．have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
    小题2: What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century ?
    A．Sailing a boat. B．Producing electricity.
    C．Grinding wheat into flour.D．Pumping water from underground.
    小题3:One of the reasons why wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that ______ .
    A．wind power is cleaner
    B．it is one of the oldest power sources
    C．it was cheaper to create energy from wind
    D．the supply of coal and gas failed to meet ends
    小题4:What would the writer probably discuss in the paragraph that follows ?
    A．The advantages of wind power.
    B．The design of wind power plants.
    C．The worldwide movement to save energy.
    D．The global trend (趋势) towards producing power from wind.

    （BBC）The "father of the personal computer" who kick-started the careers of Microsoft founders Bill Gates and Paul Allen has died at the age of 68. Dr Henry Edward Roberts was the inventor of the Altair 8800, a machine that led to the home computer age.
    Gates and Allen contacted Dr Roberts after seeing the machine on the front cover of a magazine and offered to write software for it. The program was known as Altair-Basic, the foundation of Microsoft's business. "Ed was willing to take a chance on us - two young guys interested in computers , and we have always been thankful to him," the Microsoft founders said in a statement.
    Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak told technology website CNET that Dr Roberts had taken " a critically important step that led to everything we have today".
    Dr Roberts was the founder of Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS), originally set up to sell electronics parts to model rocket hobbyists. The company went on to sell electronic calculator parts, but was soon overshadowed by bigger firms.
    In the mid-1970's, with the firm struggling with debt, Dr Roberts began to develop a computer kit(配套零件) for hobbyists. The result was the Altair 8800. The $395 kit (around £1,000 today) was featured on the cover of Popular Electronics in 1975, resulting in a flood of orders.
    Amongst those interested in the machine were Paul Allen and Bill Gates. The pair contacted Dr Roberts, offering to write software that would help people program the machine. The pair finally moved to Albuquerque - the home of MITS - where they founded Micro-Soft, to develop their software.
    Dr Roberts sold his company in 1977. He died in hospital on 1 April after a long period of pneumonia．(肺炎)
    小题1:Why did Dr Roberts probably decide to sell his company?
    A．Because he was in heavy debt in the mid-1980's .
    B．Because he wanted to take a chance on Gates and Allen.
    C．Because he wanted to develop a computer kit for hobbyists.
    D．Because he had difficulty competing with big companies.
    小题2:What do we know about MITS?
    A．It was set up by Steve Wozniak.
    B．It sold electronics parts to big firms.
    C．It is located in Albuquerque.
    D．It is a technology website.
    小题3:We can learn that Popular Electronics is likely to be  ____.
    A．a newspaperB．a magazineC．a Website D．an organization
    小题4:What is the best title of this passage?
    A．The story of the Altair 8800
    B．The founder of MITS
    C．Father of the personal computer died
    D．The story of Dr Roberts

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    BEIJING - TV viewers may no longer be able to hear English abbreviations（缩写）, like "NBA" (National Basketball Association), from mainland broadcasters.
    China Central Television (CCTV) and Beijing Television (BTV) confirmed to China Daily on Tuesday that they had received a notice from a related government department, asking them to avoid using certain English abbreviations in Chinese programs.
    The channels, however, did not reveal exactly how many English abbreviations are listed in the notice.
    The Hangzhou-based Today Morning Express reported on Tuesday that a number of provincial television stations have also received the notice.
    Broadcasters and journalists have been asked to provide Chinese explanations for unavoidable English abbreviations in their programs, the report said.
    The notice not only limits the use of English abbreviations in sports news, but also in economic and political news. Abbreviations such as "GDP" (gross domestic product), "WTO" (World Trade Organization) and "CPI" (consumer price index) will also be substituted with their Chinese pronunciations, it said.
    The country's top watchdog on television and radio, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, refused to comment.
    The move comes after a growing number of national legislators and political advisors called for preventive measures to preserve the purity of the Chinese language.
    "If we don't pay attention and don't take measures to stop mixing Chinese with English, the Chinese language won't remain pure in a couple of years," said Huang Youyi, editor-in-chief of the China International Publishing Group and secretary-general of the Translators' Association of China.
    "In the long run, Chinese will lose its role as an independent linguistic system for passing on information and expressing human feelings," he told China Daily in an earlier interview.
    According to his proposal, all documents and speeches of top government officials should be written in pure Chinese, without the use of English abbreviations such as GDP, WTO or CPI.
    His proposal also noted that a law or regulation should be introduced to serve as a guideline for the use of foreign words in domestic publications, and that a national translation committee should be set up to translate foreign names and technical terms, which can then be published on a website.
    The restricted use of English abbreviations on Chinese television programs has provoked a debate among scholars.
    "It makes no sense to introduce a regulation to prevent the use of English in the Chinese language in the face of globalization," Liu Yaoying, a professor at the Communication University of China, said on Tuesday. "It is cultural conservatism."
    "If Western countries can accept some Chinglish words, why can't the Chinese language be mixed with English?"
    The Singaporean newspaper New Straits Times and London's Daily Telegraph both used Chinese Pinyin Lianghui in their reports about the annual meeting of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, rather than using English to paraphrase the proceedings.
    Governments of some Western countries have also attempted to preserve the purity of their languages.
    For example, France is a country known for its linguistic pride. Its government outlaws advertising in English and mandates a 40 percent quota of French songs on the radio, according to a Christian Science Monitor report.
    56. Who issued the ban on English abbreviation?
    A. China Central Television.          B. Beijing Television.  
    C. an authority department.          D. a number of national political advisors.
    57. The purpose for which was the ban proposed was __________.
    A. to preserve the purity of the Chinese language     
    B. to improve our international communication
    C. to standardize the functioning of radio and TV stations
    D. to prevent foreign languages interfere with teach of Chinese in schools
    58. By calling the regulation “cultural conservatism”, Mr Liu Yaoying meant to show his _________ for the move.
    A. approval     B. criticism      C. appreciation       D. disappointment
    59. The most likely opinion of the writer of this news report tends to be _________ towards the newly introduced regulation.
    A. critical       B. positive       C. negative          D. neutral
