    Perhaps you have heard a lot about the Internet, but what is it, do you know? The Internet is a network. It uses the telephone to join millions of computers together around the world.
    Maybe that doesn¡¯t sound very interesting. But when you¡¯ve joined to the Internet, there are lots and lots of things you can do. You can do with all kinds of information on the World Wide Web (WWW). You can use QQ to chat with your friends, and they will make responses in a few seconds. You can send E-mails to your friends, and they can get them in a few seconds. You can also go shopping by the Internet without going out.
    There are many different kinds of computers now. They all can be joined to the Internet. Most of them are small machines sitting on people¡¯s desks at home, but there are still many others in schools, offices or large companies. These computers are owned by people and companies, but no one really owns the Internet itself.
    There are lots of places for you to go into the Internet. For example, your school may have the Internet. You can use it during lessons or free time. Libraries often have computers joined to the Internet. You are welcome to use it at your spare time.
    Thanks to the Internet, the world is becoming smaller and smaller. It is possible for you to work at home with a computer in front, getting and sending the information you need. It is also possible for you to discuss some projects or assign the work on the Internet instead of at a meeting. In addition, you can buy or sell whatever you want by the Internet. But do you know 98% of the information on the Internet is in English? So what will English be like tomorrow?

    One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a ¡°sea of technology¡± rather than experiencing the natural world. TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child¡¯s play.
    Without having a nature experience, kids, can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That contributes to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (ÈÏÖªµÄ) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents---and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component(³É·Ý) and that play in nature develop leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.
    Kids are not to blame. They are overprotected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but much stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood process of passage.
    Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that strengthen love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.
    СÌâ1:According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will______
    A£®keep a high sense of wonder
    B£®be over-protected by their parents
    C£®be less healthy both physically and mentally
    D£®change wild places and creatures for the better
    СÌâ2:According to the author, children¡¯s breaking an arm is_____
    A£®the fault on the part of their parents
    B£®the natural experience in their growing up
    C£®the result of their own carelessness in play
    D£®the effect of their repetitive stress from computers
    СÌâ3:In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to______
    A£®blame children for getting lost in computer games
    B£®encourage children to protect parks from encroachment
    C£®show his concern about children¡¯s lack of experience in nature
    D£®inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around

    I had the meanest mother in the world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs and toast. Others had cokes and candy for lunch, while we had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was different than the other kids¡¯. But at least I was not alone in my suffering. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.
    My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and what we were doing. We had to wear clean clothes every day. Other kids always wore their clothes for days. We reached the height of disgrace because she made our clothes herself, just to save money.
    The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So while my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to break Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay awake all night thinking up mean things to do to us. Through the years, our friends¡¯ report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for failing. My mother, however, would merely be content with black marks. None of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout.
    She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a background, I¡¯m now trying to bring up my three children. I¡¯m filled with pride when my children think I am mean because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.
    СÌâ1:Which of the following things did the writer hate to do most?

    C£®The writer is severe with her children when bringing them up

    My chance came at last. Our school was going to hold a sports meeting. I knew what it   51  to me, so I got up very early to prepare for it. I  52   running and jumping. When I was   53  , I   54 myself of my promise and went on.
    As the time approached, I felt quite  55   . On the first day I   56  fourth in the 1500m race, but I was far from   57  because what I wanted most was the highlight of the sports meeting¡ª250¡Á8 relay race. I would run the last leg for my team.
    With a shot, the race began. All the students were   58  for their team. The competition was so 59  that I began to feel nervous. Before my turn came, my team was   60  the others. Even worse, I almost dropped the stick when I was trying to   61  it.

      66   , I had proved to myself and those who had often laughed at me that I am not   67  at all! My classmates greeted me warmly and I hugged them tightly. I had won the prize as well as their   68   .
    From the sports meeting, I learnt that sometimes things are not so difficult as they   69  to be. Just try your best without fear and you might be surprised at the   70  .

As part of their homework, all the students did really    2  , wonderful things, but what Carla Chalmers did left everyone    3  . Several days after the homework had been handed out, Carla turned up carrying a big bag.
    ¡°Here in this bag I have all the happiness I¡¯ve collected so far,¡± she said    4  . On seeing this, everyone was filled with    5  , but Carla didn¡¯t want to show anyone what was in the bag. Instead, she pulled out a small box and gave it to her teacher. When Miss Ellis had taken the box, Carla took a(n)    6   camera out of her own pocket and stood with it at the ready.
    ¡°Open it, Miss Ellis.¡±
    The teacher slowly opened the box and looked inside. A big smile    7   on her face, and at that moment Carla took a photo, Carla¡¯s photo came out of the camera immediately, and she    8    it to Miss Ellis along with a sheet of paper.

    For most people, shopping is still a matter of wandering down the street or loading a cart in a shopping mall£®Soon, that will change£®Electronic commerce £¨trade£© is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices£®There will, however, be a cost: protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder£®Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the electronic world£®But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation£®
    Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything for the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to refund when goods are faulty£®But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen£®Even in a country where a clear right to compensation exists, the on-line customer in Tokyo, say, can hardly go to New York to get a refund for a clothes purchase£®
    One answer is for government to cooperate more: to recognize each other¡¯s  rules£®But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules£®And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful for sober countries to accept£®There is, however, another choice£®Let the electronic businesses do the regulation themselves£®They do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so£®
    In electronic commerce, a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset£®Governments, too, may compete to be trusted£®For instance, customers ordering medicines on-line may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration; or they may decide that the FDA¡¯s rules are too strict, and buy from Switzerland instead£®
    Customers will still need to use their judgment£®But precisely because the technology is new, electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort£®And the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down£®In this way, at least, the advent of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws, not more£®
    СÌâ1:According to the author, what will be the best policy for electronic commerce?
    A£®Self-regulation by the business£®B£®Strict consumer protection laws£®
    C£®Close international cooperation£®D£®Government protection£®
    СÌâ2:In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country, what could he do?
    A£®Refuse to pay for the purchase£®B£®Go to the seller and ask for a refund£®
    C£®Appeal to consumer protection law£®D£®Complain about it on the Internet£®
    СÌâ3:In the author¡¯s view, businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealing because in the electronic world _________________________________£®
    A£®international cooperation would be much more frequent
    B£®consumers could easily seek government protection
    C£®a good reputation is a great advantage in competition
    D£®it would be easy for consumers to complain
    СÌâ4:We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States is ____________________£®
    A£®very quickB£®very cautiousC£®very slowD£®rather careless
    СÌâ5:If a customer buys something that does not meet his expectation, what is the advantage of dealing through electronic commerce over the present normal one?
    A£®It will be easier for him to return the goods he is not satisfied with£®
    B£®It will be easier for him to attain the refund from the seller£®
    C£®It will be easier for him to get his complaints heard by other consumers£®
    D£®It will be easier for him to complain about this to the government£®

    You will spend hours at the gym training your body, but do you ever think about training your brain? Here are four ways to keep your brain mentally (ÄÔÁ¦ÉϵØ) active and healthy.
    Play games
    Your brain is a muscle just like the ones in the rest of your body. If you don¡¯t use it, you will lose it. For example, doing a crossword puzzle (×ݺáÌî×ÖÓÎÏ·) once a day is a good way to give the brain the exercise it needs. This kind of puzzle is good at training different areas of the brain. But remember that when doing this puzzle, you should gradually increase the complexity (¸´ÔÓ¶È); otherwise, it will become repetitive (Öظ´·¦Î¶µÄ) and stop being mentally challenging.
    Talk aloud
    Although it might sound strange to you, talking aloud is a great way to boost your memory. A good exercise to try is counting to 99 in threes as fast as you can.
    Be a team leader
    If you find you can do your work very easily, you should find a new task. It is important that your job should be mentally challenging. Complex jobs are often more challenging and make the brain work a little harder.
    Learn a language
    A study found that, compared with those who could speak only one language, the people who could speak two languages had a slower rate of cognitive (ÈÏÖªÄÜÁ¦) decrease. Learning a new language is very challenging and it makes sure that different areas of the brain have their lights on.
    СÌâ1:What is the main idea of this passage?
    A£®Why you should train your brain.
    B£®How to be a good team leader.
    C£®Training the brain is more important than training the body.
    D£®How to make your brain healthy and work actively.
    СÌâ2:Which word can replace the word "boost" in the third paragraph?
    A£®Change.B£®Promote. C£®Decrease.D£®Lose.
    СÌâ3:We should gradually increase the complexity when doing crossword puzzles because ______.
    A£®if we don¡¯t use our brain, we will lose it
    B£®we should make our brain face different challenges
    C£®our brain is a muscle like other parts in our bodies
    D£®these puzzles can work on different areas of the brain
    СÌâ4:Which group of people have a slower rate of cognitive decrease?
    A£®Those who don¡¯t often do crossword puzzles.
    B£®Those who don¡¯t often count to 99 in threes.
    C£®Those who do their work very easily.
    D£®Those who can speak more than one language.

    We tried so hard to make things better for our kids but we made them worse. For my naughty boys, I¡¯d know better. I¡¯d really like for them to know about hand-me-down clothes and home-made ice cream and leftover meatloaf. I really would.
    My cherished boys, I hope you learn humility (Ç«Ñ·) by surviving failure and that you learn to be honest even when no one is looking. I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in. I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother. And it is all right to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he wants to crawl (ÅÀ) under the covers (±»×Ó) with you because he¡¯s scared, I hope you¡¯ll let him. And when you want to see a Disney movie and your kid brother wants to tag along, I hope you take him.
    ¡¡¡¡I hope you have to walk uphill with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books, and when you learn to use computers, you also learn how to add and subtract (¼õ) in your head.
    May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on the stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole (Æì¸Ë). I hope you get sick when someone blows smoke in your face. I don¡¯t care if you try beer once, but I hope you won¡¯t like it.
    I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your grandpa or go fishing with your uncle.
    I hope your father punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor¡¯s window, and that your mother hugs you and kisses you when you give her a plaster of pared mold (Ò»¸öʯ¸àÄ£ÐÍ) of your hand.
    ¡¡ These things I wish for you¡ªtough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness.
    СÌâ1:Who wrote the letter?
    A£®A grandmother.B£®A grandfather.C£®A father.D£®A mother.
    СÌâ2:What does the author hope for the boys?
    A£®they learn a lesson from a fight with others.
    B£®they know how to calculate with computers.
    C£®they get on well with family members..
    D£®they burn their hand on the stove and stick their tongue on a frozen flagpole.
    СÌâ3:It can be inferred from the text that the boys _________________.
    A£®often fight with othersB£®are to develop good qualities
    C£®always keep their grandpa companyD£®score high in the exam
    СÌâ4: Why does the author write the letter?
    A£®To show the boys it¡¯s not easy growing up.
    B£®To teach the boys dos and don¡¯ts on the way growing up.
    C£®To help the boys to avoid making mistakes on the way growing up.
    D£®To encourage the boys to fully experience life on the way growing up.

    A hen, Henny-Penny, lived in a forest with many other animals and birds. One fine, sunny morning, she was busy looking for    38    in the ground. Suddenly she let out a frightened cackle (¿©¿©½Ð) with wings flapping    39   . A dry leaf had fallen down on her, and she went  40   at whoever she met, ¡°Run, run for your lives; the sky is falling.¡± The other creatures stopped whatever they were doing. Some ran behind Henny-Penny, screaming warnings with her, while others    41    the unfounded story that the sky was falling.
    We all have    42    people like this hen. The rest of us are like the other foolish creatures who didn¡¯t stop to verify (֤ʵ) the    43    for themselves. They shoot butterflies with guns. They just will not think for themselves. Why don¡¯t people think for themselves? Often because of laziness, or because they don¡¯t want to be    44    for their way of thinking.
    Walking through life    45    is more dangerous than crossing a busy road with eyes closed. Our thoughts should lead us towards the light of wisdom and sense. Our thinking should be high,  46    us to the ranks of the sensible. We have been blessed with reasoning, sensitive minds. Let us make use of them and be    47    of our own minds. Don¡¯t let your mind be enslaved by someone else. Stop, think and then go ahead.
