A couple of years ago, before a trip to China, Nicole Davis and her US women’s volleyball teammates were warned about the prominence (显著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping in her native country.
“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I was just trying to put my luggage on the bus,” said Davis.
Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球), Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s. She was a key player on China’s 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.
When the US team arrived for the Olympics, Lang, 48, who is from Beijing, had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.
Then came the greatest moment to Lang:while the US team was playing in a packed gym, at least 8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.
“That really says it all,” Davis said. “They look at her as an icon(偶像).I’m sure it’s hard for them to see her coaching another country, but they love her so deeply that her success is their success.”
The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday, when China lost a match to the US.
“It’s a pity that China lost the match, but I’m still glad that Lang Ping’s team won, since she is the pride of China’s volleyball,” said Liu Chengli, a spectator. “We also cheered for Lang’s victory.”
Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet. “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team. It’s the same.” Lang said.
Davis said she and her teammates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players, said a US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.
“It’s such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,” she said. “The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous. The whole event has been unbelievable.”

Global financial big dogs are no match for China's "Da Ma", or housewives, who have crowded into gold stores across China, buying up 300 tons of gold over the past two weeks. No wonder gold prices have steadied after taking a dive.
During the May Day holiday, gold stores were crowded with mostly female customers. Most of them are middle-aged "Chinese housewives". This group of buyers has risen to fame recently. They are big spenders and are desperate to get their hands on a bargain. "I bought some gold jewellery and kept them as a gift for my son when he gets married," said a buyer from Shanghai.
The gold business is skyrocketing. "Our sales are growing by the day. Yesterday we sold more than ten million yuan of gold products," a gold store salesperson said. The gold rush in China started about two weeks ago thanks to a decline in global gold prices. Media reports suggest that Chinese housewives have spent about 100 billion yuan, or about 16 billion US dollars, purchasing 300 tons of gold since mid-April. That has helped support gold prices.
"Gold prices depressed since the middle of last month but have risen gradually. That is mainly due to the strong demand from Asian markets," said foreign trader Zhang Chen from Industrial & Commercial Bank of China. "Some people even joked that Chinese housewives have beaten Wall Street analysts." For Chinese people, with limited investment options, the only thing better than buying gold is buying gold at discount prices.
小题1:What does the author indicate in the first sentence of the 1st paragraph?
A.The global big dogs can’t match with Chinese housewives.
B.China's "Da Ma" help a lot to support the global economic crisis .
C.Chinese housewives spend a great deal of money on gold
D.Chinese housewives have a better consumption idea than global financial big dogs
小题2:The whole passage mainly developed_______ ?
A.by comparison B.by contrast
C.by quotation D.by time order
小题3:We can infer about the gold rush in China from the passage?
A.The Chinese housewives are most willing to spend money in buying gold ..
B.China's "Da Ma" crowded into stores to get gold as the best gifts for sons when they get married.
C.China's "Da Ma" are bigger spenders and cleverer than global financial big dogs.
D.China’s "Da Ma" become the largest gold buyers due to a decline in global gold prices.
小题4:In the writer’s view, Chinese housewives are desperate to get their hands on a bargain because_____.
A. it is worthy to buy gold.

Everyone has got two personalities(性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behavior(行为), but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you sleep in.
If you go to sleep on your back , you’re a very open person . You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas . You don’t like to upset people , so you never express your real feelings . You are quite shy and you aren’t very confident .
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive (不坦率的) person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn(顽固), but you aren't very ambitious(抱负的). You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.
If you sleep curled up (卷曲), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive (防御性的). You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.
小题1:Point out which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleeping on his or her stomach?
A.He or she is careful not to make others angry.

B.He or she is rarely ready to help you.
C.He or she prefers going out to staying at home.

And the most difficult thing for the young diabetic patients is that many of them don’t have a clear idea when they need to take insulin(a drug used in treating diabetes).The parents of one Long Island boy found the perfect solution—Hero, a specially trained dog that can discover when a diabetic is in trouble and find help.

Hero’s trainer, said the dog could discover the slightest changes in blood sugar by her sense of smell.“Humans have 5 million smell receptors(感受器); dogs have 5 billion smell receptors,”she said.
When the dog discovers something’s wrong, she’ll rub(蹭)her head against Johnny’s legs. If he doesn’t answer her, Hero knows to look for Johnny’s mom and dad. Hero even could ring up 911.

In the UK, a group of campaigners(活动家)have declared the last Saturday in November as National Buy Nothing Day. “Our message is clear: shop less, live more!” says organizer Michael Smith. “The challenge is to try simple living for a day. Spend time with family and friends, rather than spending money on them. Anyone can take part, provided they spend a day without spending.”
On Buy Nothing Day, they take to the streets to tackle consumers(消费者). They dress as pigs to symbolize greed(贪婪). They offer to cut up credit cards and hand out shopping bags with the words “another useless thing I don’t need” written on the side. Some hold street parties to show shoppers that it is possible to have fun without spending money. Others go into shops and put notes saying “don’t buy me” inside clothes and shoes.
Some protestors(抗议者) are working against powerful forces. Many retailers(零售商) and manufacturers depend on Christmas sales for most of their profits. Around two thirds of GDP in the West is made up of consumer spending. If this drops, many people will lose their jobs. At least that will make it easier for them to buy nothing.
And there is also the risk that the campaigners will be seen as killjoys, who want to stop people enjoying themselves. “There’s a fun side to this,” says Michael Smith. “To some it’s a protest, but it’s also a street party. We’re not saying that people are bad because they go shopping, but we need get the message across for people to consume wisely. And after we’re finished, we’ll probably go for a drink.”
小题1:Why do a group of people in the UK choose Saturday as National Buy Nothing Day?
A.Because they have enough food at their homes.
B.Because it is the season for shopping.
C.Because they have run out of money at that time.
D.Because it’s popular to live a simple life.
小题2:In order to persuade people to stop shopping, the campaigners _____.
A.stop people going out
B.have different ways to make it
C.offer goods to people freely
D.play tricks on consumers
小题3:The underlined word “killjoys” in the last paragraph refers to people who _____.
A.ruin the happiness and fun of others
B.get money from shopkeepers
C.bring happiness to others
D.take no interest in shopping
小题4:The campaigners started National Buy Nothing Day for the purpose of _____.
A.persuading people to kill time in a different way
B.persuading people to save money
C.persuading people to have more parties
D.persuading people to spend money wisely

Worried about how many calories you will get in that piece of pizza, chocolate cake or bag of chips? A new iphone application Mealsnap may help. Users just need to take a picture of the meal with the phone, and it will give a calorie read-out almost immediately.
Mealsnap was developed by DailyBurn, a health social network that focuses on helping its users lead healthier lifestyles. It has created several other health and diet-related iphone applications. The applications gives users a quick reply. To do that, it matches the taken picture to a databank containing the calorie information of nearly 500,000 kinds of food. Users then get the range of calories for the meal that is photographed.
We started with something simple — an apple. A couple of minutes later the application replied that it was an apple and between 64 and 96 calories. More impressive was the reply we received after sending a photo of mixed salad bowl. Mealsnap replied that the bowl contained “yellow rice with corn, boiled eggs and beans” and that the food was between 532 and 798 calories.
Mr. Smith, director of DailyBurn, said that usual calorie counting needed a long time, but that the application made it easier to know the calories in food. That’s why it is so popular among those who are trying hard to lose weight.
In addition, Mealsnap can serve as a food diary. No need to write down what they’ve eaten, the photos will be stored. Then users can keep a visual log (记录). Mr. Smith said: “It’s like a food journal, but easier. All you do is to take the picture. The simple act of recording something can cause a psychological change that can help people on their health journey. Knowing the calorie range makes me think more about what I’m eating.
60. 小题1:The purpose of DailyBurn is to _______.
A.help people have a healthy life
B.make iphone more popular
C.help people find ways to lose weight
D.persuade people to buy iphone products
61. 小题2: We can know from the passage that Mealsnap is ________.
A.a cameraB.a phoneC.a calculatorD.an application
62. 小题3:What can be learned from the third paragraph?
A.Mealsnap can also tell what the food is.
B.Mealsnap is only useful for simple things.
C.The result of Mealsnap isn’t always right.
D.Mealsnap needs a long time to show the calorie range.
63. 小题4:Which would be the best title for the passage?
A.Mealsnap iphones work as a health signal
B.Mealsnap iphones offer you a health signal

Marriages improve after children grow up and move out,according to an academic study, which suggests an “empty nest” is not always a bad thing.
Popular wisdom has it that parents’ relationships may suffer once their young fly the coop, because they feel they have lost their purpose in life.However, a new study by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, has found that many couples actually feel happier when their children leave home because they are able to enjoy spending time together.
In total,123 American mothers born in the 1930s were tracked for 18 years and asked to rate their satisfaction levels shortly after marrying, when they were bringing up babies, once their children reached their teenage years and finally at age 61, when almost all had “empty nests”.
Although not all said they were happier in general, most claimed their marriages had improved since their children had left home. Researchers believe this is not just because the spouses were spending more time together, but because they were able to enjoy each other’s company more.
One of the participants in the study,which is published in the journal Psychological Science,said:“Once the kids grow up...there’s some of that stress removed...that responsibility removed,so things are a little more relaxed.”
Psychologist Sara Gorchoff,who carried out the investigation,said: “The take­home message for couples with young children is ‘hang in there’.” Her co­author Oliver John added:“Don’t wait until your kids leave home to schedule quality time with your partner.”
However, Dr Dorothy Rowe,from the British Psychological Society,said the effects of living in an “empty nest” will depend on the parents’ relationship with their children.“If you’re just waiting for them to leave home so you can get on with your life,then of course you’ll be pleased to see them go,” she said, “But if you’ve built your life around your children you’ll be terribly lonely.For some parents,their world falls apart when their children leave.”
小题1:It is commonly believed that___________.
A.marriages improve after children leave home
B.an “empty nest” is always a happy thing
C.parents’ relationships may suffer once their young grow up and move out
D.parents will be pleased after their children leave home
小题2:When did many couples feel happier according to the study?
A.At age 61, when almost all had “empty nests”.
B.Shortly after marrying.
C.Once their children reached their teenage years.
D.When they were bringing up babies.
小题3:Marriages improve after children fly the coop not because___________.
A.many couples are able to spend time together
B.many couples are able to enjoy each other’s company
C.things are a little more relaxed
D.many couples needn’t work at all
小题4:The author of the passage tends to agree that____________.
A.parents should build their life around their kids
B.parents should schedule quality time with each other before kids leave home
C.parents’ relationship with their kids has no effect on marriages at all
D.parents should be pleased to see their kids leave home

A growing number of college students are applying to take entry tests for medical and dental (牙科的) schools among increasing graduate unemployment in Korea.
“I’ve decided to apply for the test to enter a medical college to become a doctor, changing from my original plan to prepare for a lawyer qualification exam in order to get a more stable job in the future,” said a 24-year-old college graduate, Lee, who majored in business administration during his undergraduate schooling.
The new medical and dental school system is getting popularity, attracting an increasing number of students every year since its appearance in 2004, as it is open to all college graduates regardless of their previous majors.
The Education Development introduced the new medical and dental education system, in which college students with bachelor’s degrees are allowed to study medicine or dentistry by taking the Medical Education Test (MET) and Dental Education Test (DET).
Ten medical schools and six dental colleges that have used the new system have received 4,377 applications (申请) for the entrance exams.
Applicants are getting younger compared with those in their 20s representing 76.9 percent of the total. The tests might be easier for students with biology and chemistry majors, but graduates from other majors are also applying for the tests.
Under the existing medical and dental education system, students should take a two-year premedical course followed by a four-year medical course.
Students graduating under the new medical or dental education system are given master’s degrees, while those graduates who studied under the previous system have bachelor’s degrees.
小题1:Why do more and more Korean students apply for medical schools?
A.Because doctors are highly respected in Korea.
B.Because they want to get a more stable job.
C.Because medicine is easier to learn than other subjects.
D.Because the medical education system is reasonable.
小题2:Students in the old system may spend _______ years at college to get bachelor’s degrees.
A.twoB.fourC.sixD.seven
小题3:We can learn from the passage that _______.
A.it takes a longer time to get the master’s degree in the old system
B.students may find it a lot easier to get a bachelor’s degree in medicine
C.graduates from other majors like history are not allowed to apply for those schools
D.the new system are not so popular as expected because of its high unemployment
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A.New Medical and Dental School System Is Carried Out in Korea
B.Korean College Students Have a New Job Choice
C.Korean College Students Rush to Medical and Dental Schools
D.Doctors Are Becoming Popular in Korea
