    Though your parents probably meant to have your name last a lifetime, remember that when they picked it they’d hardly met you, and the hopes and dreams they cared for when they chose it may not match yours. If your name no longer seems to fit you, don’t lose heart. Film stars change their names, and with some determination, you can, too.
    If you wish to pick up a new name, you don’t need to make the change official. Under common law, all that is necessary is to start using the name of your choice. Remember, though, that you must use it everywhere—even with your mother—for it to become your legal name.
    Getting friends and fellow workers to call you Leach instead of Lola may be harder than any paperwork involved, but you’ll probably meet official resistance, too. Be sure that no law prevents you from using the name you have chosen, unless you use it for the purpose of cheating. If the gas company tells you that you cannot get your bill under a new name, they are wrong. You don’t have to show them any sort of court document. You have a right to be called by whatever name you choose.
    By this time, you’ve probably realized that changing your name is more difficult than replacing your furniture or changing your hair color, though the effect can be unusually encouraging. Don’t care too much if you have to keep reminding others of your change of a new name—keep on, and your friends and lover will accept your new name. Good luck!
    51.   You may wish to change your name because _____.
    you are required to do so
    you don’t mean to have your name last a lifetime
    you like to follow what film stars often do
    you may not like your parents’ choice
    52.   If you wish to start using the name of your own choice, you _____.
    must get friends to call your new name
    don’t have to get permission from anybody
    must use it with your mother first
    need to be approved by the court
    53.   No law keeps you from using whatever name you have chosen, if only ____.
    you pick up a new name not for the purpose of wrong-doing
    you can get your fellow workers to call you the new name
    the gas company agrees to get your bill under your new name
    some sort of court document is given to you
    54.   You may realize that changing your name ____.
    usually has good effect
    is actually asking for trouble
    is not as easy as rearranging your room
    means you have to go through some trouble
    55.   The purpose of the writer in writing this passage is to _____.
    show you the need of changing your name
    encourage you if you want to change your name
    tell you how easy it is to change one’s name
    list all the difficulties in changing one’s name

    Your genetic makeup plays a big part in determining your size and weight. If both your parents are tall, there is a good chance you’ll be tall. But if your parents are smaller than average, you may want to rethink that professional basketball career!
    The same goes for your body type. Have you ever heard someone say a person is “big boned?” It’s a way of saying the person has a large frame, or skeleton(骨骼). Big bones usually weigh more than small bones. That’s why it’s possible for two kids with the same height, but different weight, to both the right weight.
    Being overweight can run in someone’s family, but it may not be because of their genes. Poor eating and exercise habits also run in families and these may be the reasons the members of a family are overweight. And even though some kids gain weight more easily than others, when they eat right and exercise, most kids can have a healthy weight that’s right for them. It’s true- the way you live can change the way you look.
    How much your weight is a balance between the calories you eat and the calories you use. If you eat more calories than your body needs to use, you will gain too much weight. If you spend you free time watching TV, your body won’t use as many calories as it would if you played basketball, skated, or went for a walk. But if you eat more and exercise less, you may become overweight. On the other hand, if you eat less and exercise more, you may lose weight.
    小题1: Which one can be used as the best title of this passage?
    A．What Makes Me the Weight I Have?
    B．How Can I Lose More Weight?
    C．What Makes Me the Height I Have?
    D．Is the Way You Live Important?
    小题2:_______ might be the most important in determining your size and weight.
    A．Your father and mother
    B．Your genetic structure
    C．Your diet and habit
    D．Doing exercise in the morning
    小题3:If two kids are of the same height _______.
    A．they must have large frames.
    B．they must be of the same size
    C．they must be of the same weight
    D．their weight might be different
    小题4:Which one of the following is TRUE according to the third paragraph?
    A．Eating right and exercise normally can keep you healthy.
    B．The members of a rich family must be overweight.
    C．The way you live has nothing to do with the way you look.
    D．the members of a poor family can’t be overweight.
    小题5: ______ can help you to get your weight right.
    A．Watching TV in your spare time.
    B．Eating more and doing less exercise
    C．Eating less and doing more exercises
    D．Sleeping more in your spare time

    A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment. When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters’ soccer games, they drive in high-tech style. They drive a $1 million, fuel-cell-powered car. It may be the world’s most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars. The FCX is the first fuel-cell-powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world. The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel. Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment. They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline. And then what is fuel cell technology? Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water. This process produces electricity, and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe. Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming. “The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment,” scientists say. Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s, but scientists have yet been to perfect it. They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use. Another earth-friendly car is already on the market. Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor. They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.
    46. Which of the following about the FCX is not true?
    A. It may be the most expensive car in the world.

    A senior official in charge of Internet security has claimed that the country has become the world' s biggest victim of cyber-attacks.
    In an interview with Xinhua over the weekend, Zhou Yonglin, deputy chief of the operations department of China National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team ( CNCERT), also dismissed Google' s complaints that hackers traced to China had attacked its servers.
    Google has not yet given CNCERT any report on the company' s complaints about the attacks, according to Zhou. "We have been hoping that Google will contact us so that we could have details on this issue and provide them help if necessary.”
    Foreign firms such as eBay have turned to CNCERT for cyber security issues in the past year. Last year, the Internet security watchdog received 21,618 complaints from foreign companies, of which 1,095 cases were solved after combining similar cases. These cases included the trojan and phishing attacks (钓鱼攻击) against eBay /Paypal, JPMorgan Chase & Co and MarkMonitor Inc.
    China has also sought other countries' help to clear web pages with malicious content. In November 2009, CNCERT reported to its US counterpart, the US-CERT, about two US-registered domain (域) names that were planting trojans on hundreds of Chinese websites. The domain names were shut down within two days of CNCERT’s requests.
    With the number of Chinese netizens soaring but their Internet security awareness lagging, hackers have made China their primary target, Zhou said. He accused overseas hackers, especially those in the US, of illegally controlling computers in China by implanting malicious programs including trojans and zombie programs.
    Compared with Interact security issues in the US, Japan and the Republic of Korea, it is very serious in China. Last year, 262,000 IP addresses in China were hit by trojans planted by nearly 165,000 overseas IP addresses. Those from the US ranked first, accounting for 16.61 percent.
    60. What is the best title of the passage?
    A. Google attacked by unknown hackers.                  
    B. US legally responsible for Internet Security
    C. Malicious Programs, an International Problem
    D. China, the world' s biggest victim of cyber-attacks
    61. Who does the underlined "a senior official" refer to?
    A. An interviewer from Xinhua News Agency.
    B. Deputy Chief of operation department of CNCERT.
    C. A high official from Google Company.                 
    D. A representative from foreign firms.
    62. The author mentions eBay as an example of ________.
    A. complaining for the cyber attacks                         B. seeking other countries for assistance
    C. turning to CNCERT for cyber security                   D. taking USA as a counterpart
    63. What does the writer intend to tell the readers in Paragraph 5?
    A. The global cyber-attacks are mainly from the US.
    B. International cooperation quickens steps to settle cyber issues.
    C. The two US-registered domains are the counterparts of US-CERT.
    D. CNCERT shut down the two US domain names within two days.
