    He had travelled thousands of miles in the hope of earning some money，but 18-year-old Lin Kongming never knew danger was waiting for him.
    He and six other migrant workers from Fujian Province spent 36 hours in Iraq as international hostages（人质）. But luckily，they were set free last Tuesday morning，unharmed by the people who had taken them hostage.
    After hard work by Chinese diplomats（外交官）in the region the Iraqi kidnappers（绑架者）agreed to hand them over to a local religious group.“The friendly relations between the Chinese and Iraqi peoples have played a key role in the release of the hostages,”said Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan. China refused to join the US-led coalition（联军）in the Iraq war.
    Since April 4，over 60 hostages from 12 countries，including America，Italy and Japan，have been taken in Iraq. Some have been released, others were killed.
    The Iraqi resistance groups have started taking foreigners hostage in an attempt to force the US-led troops out of their country. As a result，many foreigners have left，fearing the situation will get worse. Some nations are also considering removing their troops from Iraq. Thailand has ordered its forces not to leave their camp and may bring them home before September as originally planned. New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark is considering similar action.
    But Dan Senor，spokesman for the US-led coalition in Baghdad，said that it would not negotiate（谈判）with “terrorists or kidnappers” to get hostages released.
    小题1:The seven workers from Fujian were set free mainly because ______.
    A．they were too poor to pay anything
    B．kidnappers didn’t know they were Chinese
    C．China didn’t take sides with the US-led coalition
    D．kidnappers were friendly to the Chinese
    小题2:Why did the Iraqi resistance groups start to take foreigners hostage？
    A．To show their anger towards the occupation of foreign troops.
    B．To tell the world they would fear nothing.
    C．To make foreign armies leave their country.
    D．To resist the American troops.
    小题3:The author mentioned Dan Senor to show the US ______.
    A．wouldn’t give in to Iraqi terrorists or kidnappers
    B．had enough power to station in Iraq
    C．wouldn’t give up unless it could get something
    D．had no plan to bring its troops home
    小题4:The passage mainly tells us ______.
    A．the hostage crises in Iraq
    B．foreigners were not welcome in Iraq
    C．the Chinese hostages were set free
    D．keeping away from Iraq is a wise choice

    I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today．All of the checkouts were    36  , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n)    37  ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      38   ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    39   scan her own shopping.
    I listened to her    40  looking around as I loaded my stuff onto the conveyor belt (传送带)．I didn’t want    41   to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     42    of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!
    But then I    43  back．Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    44   her granddaughter．The girl’s part of the shopping    45  of some comic books.
    I couldn’t    46  it．I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     47   a space．“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    48   them to a big    49   ．The woman was delighted, and even    50   to complain ---- until she was walking away．
    So,  51  bother having helped?

    We can all complain; we can all react    54   , but it doesn’t have to be like that．And, even if only for a few     55    , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way．

    Here’ s an unusual story: a diamond ring
    was recently found in an egg. The    

    magician, Liu Qian, discovered it, in front          
    of an audience of millions at CCTV’ s Spring
    Festival Gala. Liu’ s magic tricks have made the centuries-old art of magic fashionable once again, and made him the hottest magician in China.
    As a seasoned young magician from Taiwan, Liu is popular worldwide for his magic shows. Countries he has performed in include the U
    nited States, Japan, South Korea and the UK.
    Witnessing something impossible happen right before your eyes is the root of people’ s love for magic.
    “It’ s actually thinking rather than one’ s manipulation（操作）skills; that is more important to achieving a successful magic show. We think carefully about how to design the shows creatively, to make them appear more interesting.  ”Liu said.

    Liu Qian’ s success dated back to his childhood. Born in 1976 in Taiwan, he found himself attracted to a magic toy in a shop when he was seven years old. At the age of 12, he won Taiwan’ s Youth Magic Contest, which was judged by the great American magician, David Copperfield.
    Yet, Liu never planned on becoming a professional magician. He studied Japanese literature at university and only hoped to be an amateur  (业余的) magician in his spare time. However, his failure to find a proper job after graduation pushed him towards magic as a career.
    To refine his performing skills, he has performed on streets, roads and fields for passers-by, policemen and farmers.
    “Street shows are the biggest challenge for us magicians. We have to deal with unexpected situations and tough crowds, ” Liu said.
    小题1:What does the underlined word  “seasoned ” in Paragraph 2 mean?
    A．季节性的B．刚出道的C．老练的D．职业的
    小题2: The story is about_____.
    A．how Liu Qian became China’ s hottest magician
    B．why people love magic
    C．what magic tricks are
    D．how fashionable the magic is
    小题3:People love to watch magic because_____.
    A．they can’ t figure out the secret of magic
    B．it arouses their curiosity
    C．they love watching magicians make the impossible happen
    D．it is a centuries-old art
    小题4:Which of the following is the key reason that Liu Qian decided to make magic his career?
    A．He was interested in magic when he was little.
    B．He had won Taiwan’ s Youth Magic Contest.
    C．He became an amateur magician in his spare time.
    D．He couldn’ t find an acceptable job after graduation

    阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
    The following people are expressing their thoughts (81--85) to show their concern for food, environment and so on．After that are pieces of related information (A--F) ．Now decide which piece of information would be most suitable for the thought and idea mentioned in questions (81—85) and mark your answer letter (A---F) on your answer sheet．There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use.
    ______小题1:How I was struck by the clear water and fresh air in my childhood! But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh air are nowhere to be found again as they were．Above all, a great deal of waste hardly rots away.
    ______小题2:More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forces the business to be cleaned up.
    ______小题3:Organic products are getting more and more popular among people, but we should know the fact that organic products might also have something to do with pesticides.
    ______小题4:I’m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becoming more and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides.
    ______小题5:Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked.
    A．"Organic produce is always better, "Gold said．"The food is free of pesticides(农药) ,and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms．And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty." Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.
    B．Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences - but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete．For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products．And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand．"The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market, "said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.
    C．Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted．Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem．One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of.
    D．However, today, more and more consumers are choosing "green" and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment．Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: "Will this shampoo damage the environment?" "Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?"
    E．Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds．Some supermarket products carry labels(标签) to show that the product is green．Some companies have made the manufacturing(制造) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising.
    F．The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business．No longer will the public accept the old attitude of "Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it." The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.

    I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. There, a few kids picked on(欺负)me, calling me names. Then I knew. After that, I began to hate the first day of school each year. I didn’t know who was new and would stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs. Some of the kids would point and say, “Look at that kid. Look at her.”
    As time went on, I just tried to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I was determined to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. My friends became increasingly protective. They’d help me up the bus steps. If people were cruel, they would take them aside and correct them.
    What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality----my ability to laugh, even at myself. For example, one time I was reaching into the washing machine at my parents’ house to grab the wet clothes. I fell all the way in and yell for Mother, who was sitting nearby reading the paper. Watching feet flying everywhere, she laughed quietly and said, “I should leave you in there.” I laughed with her.
    I’m 47 now, and the stares have not decreased as I’ve grown older. People ask my friends if I live in a dollhouse. They look in disbelief when they see me get out of my car on the driver’s side. During those times, I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have----a great family, nice friends…”
    小题1:What is the main idea of the second and third paragraphs?
    A．How the writer changed her disadvantage to advantage.
    B．The writer’s friends and mother loved her deeply.
    C．The writer had many friends helping her.
    D．The writer had the ability to laugh.
    小题2:By saying “the stares have not decreased” in the last paragraph, the author suggests that____.
    A．she is able to live a happy life like a normal person
    B．she isn’t afraid of being noticed by others any more
    C．some people still don’t treat her as a normal person
    D．more and more people treat her with respect now
    小题3:How is the author feeling now about her situation?
    A．Quite optimistic.
    B．Very satisfied.
    C．Deeply upset.
    D．Rather anxious.
    小题4: We can infer that the author believes that_________.
    A．society should help the disabled as much as possible
    B．only your parents and friends can help you
    C．what people say about you is none of your business
    D．all people should be treated with respect

    The winter holidays are a special time at the White House. Each year, about 44,000 people come to see the holiday decorations or to attend holiday parties at the President’s home in Washington, D.C.
    I was able to attend a press preview of the holiday decorations recently, which was hosted by First Lady Laura Bush. This year’s theme for the decorations is “All Things Bright and Beautiful.” The decorations are all made of fresh flowers, garlands(花环), and fruits. The flowers will have to be changed every few days to keep the look fresh.
    The main Christmas tree is in the Blue Room. It’s an 18-foot fir tree—tall enough that the chan-delier(吊灯) had to be removed to make room for it. Fresh white lilies(百合), crystal garlands, and white lights decorate the White House Christmas tree. The room smells of pine and lilies.
    Mrs. Bush was asked whether she called the tree a holiday tree or a Christmas tree. “We know that Americans celebrate the season in a lot of different ways,” she said. “We’ll have a party and a reception here at the White House later during the month. But I think we’ve always called this the White House Christmas tree.”
    Another centerpiece of the decorations each year is the gingerbread house(姜饼屋), made by chief Thaddeus Dubois.“This is his second gingerbread house,” Mrs. Bush said. “And this year Dubois painstakingly(辛苦地，辛勤地) made it special.” The gingerbread house was made with 100 pounds of gingerbread, 150 pounds of white and dark chocolate, and clear, poured sugar windows. A strand of white lights inside the Gingerbread White House made it glow.
    40. Mrs. Bush chose “All Things Bright and Beautiful”as the theme for the decorations to ______.              .
    A. highlight nature’s beauty          B. show the great wealth of the family
    C. express her love of the country     D. differ from other people’s ideas
    41. Which of the following can probably be used to describe the White House after the decorations?
    A. New and clean.               B. Elegant(高贵的) and beautiful.
    C. Smelly and shaky.              D. Luxurious(豪华的) and serious.
    42. The passage is mainly about ______.             .
    A. how Americans observe Christmas       
    B. decorating the White House for holidays
    C. the differences between a holiday tree and a Christmas tree
    D. how to select a present for the White House

    Some of the greatest success stories of history have followed a word of   21   or an act of confidence by a loved one or a   22   friend.

    28   a little bit. So here is enough to   29   us for one whole year."
