    Only three local students won Chinese Blog Competition. And 15 of the 18 awards went to students from China.
    170 students’ task: to get a fully-designed blog up and running, complete with many postings based on a theme of choice—all written in Chinese.
    Themes ranged from local opinions－such as the usage of Singlish, education and whether Singapore can be a cultural centre－to food blogs.
    The entries were judged on Language proficiency（熟练程度）and the quality of writing, as well as the design and level of exchanging ideas with readers.

    “No surprise, ” said Mr. Chow Yaw Long, 37, teachers in charge from Innova Junior College, which organized the event. “Although the topics were local subjects, the foreign students were generally better in terms of the content of the posts and their grasp of the Chinese language. ”
    One of the three local students winning the first prize in the Best Language Award was blogger Christina Gao 19, from the Saint Andrew’s Junior College, who spared no effort in researching for and writing her blog.

    Consumers are being confused and misled by the hodge-podge(大杂烩) of environmental claims made by household products, according to a “green labeling” study published by Consumers International Friday.
    Among the report’s more unacceptalbe findings – a German fertilizer described itself as “earthworm friendly”; a brand of flour said it was “non-polluting” and a British toilet paper claimed to be “environmentally friendlier”.
    The study was written and researched by Britain’s National Consumer Council (NCC) for lobby group Consumers International. It was funded by the German and Dutch governments and the European Commission.
    “While many good and useful claims are being made, it is clear that there is a long way to go in ensuring shoppers are adequately informed about the environmental impacts they buy,” said Consumers International director, Anna Fielder.
    The 10-country study surveyed product packaging in Britain, Western Europe, Scandinavia and the United States. It found that products sold in Germany and the United Kingdom made the most environmental claims on average.
    The report focused on claims made by specific products, such as detergent (洗涤剂), insect sprays and some garden products. It did not test claims, but compared them to labeling guidelines set by the International Standards Organization (ISO) in September, 1999. Researchers documented claims of environmental friendliness made by about 2,000 products and found many too vague or too misleading to meet ISO standards.
    “Many products had specially designed labels to make them seem environmentally friendly, but in fact many of these symbols mean nothing,” said report researcher Philip Page.
    “Laundry detergents made the most number of claims with 158. Household cleaners were second with 145 separate claims, while paints were third on our list with 73. The high numbers show how confusing it must be for consumers to sort the true from the misleading,” he said.
    The ISO labeling standards ban vague or misleading claims on product packaging, because terms such as “environmentally friendly” and “non-polluting” cannot be verified. “What we are now pushing for is to have multinational corporations meet the standards set by the ISO,” said Page.
    小题1:According to the passage, the NCC found it unacceptable that _______.
    A．all the products surveyed claim to meet ISO standards
    B．the claims made by products are often unclear and deceiving
    C．consumers would believe many of the manufacturers’ claims
    D．few products actually prove to be environment friendly
    小题2:As indicated in this passage, with so many good claims, the consumers _______.
    A．are becoming more cautious about the products they are going to buy
    B．are still not willing to pay more for products with green labeling
    C．are becoming more aware of the effects different products have on the environment
    D．still do not know the exact impact of different products on the environment
    小题3:It can be inferred from the passage that the lobby group Consumer International wants to _______.
    A．make product labeling satisfy ISO requirements
    B．see all household products meet environmental standards
    C．warn consumers of the danger of so-called green products
    D．verify the effects of non-polluting products

    The summer of 2012 was full of reports of extreme weather: one of the warmest years on record in the US, the wettest summer in the UK, and the worst drought (旱灾) in East Africa. In short, extreme weather seems to be becoming the new normal. Weather extremes are not that extreme any more. Heatwaves, droughts and wildfires are the new reality of a warming world.
    And this should not come as a surprise. Scientists have been warning for years that as the planet heats up, we will have to deal with more dreadful weather. Although not every extreme weather event is the result of climate change, scientists are now much more confident about connecting weather events with climate change. In 2011, the UK had a warm November. Researchers say that it was at least 60 times more likely to happen because of climate change than because of natural changes in the earth’s weather systems.
    All the news shows that climate breakdown is occurring faster than most climate scientists had expected. But isn’t it too expensive to stop the climate from changing? Well, yes it costs. So everything is just as usual. It would be wrong to believe that to let things continue as they always do is the cheap choice. Instead, it is very expensive. Just one example: droughts in the US, Russia and the Ukraine sent food prices to a record high. According to the World Bank, the price for corn increased by 113% in some markets in Mozambique and in Sudan. This is the kind of cost that often gets ignored.
    I believe intelligent climate action can help create new opportunities for jobs in Europe, for encouraging creativity and competitiveness, for spending less money on energy.
    小题1:According to the passage, in 2012 _____.
    A．the UK had a warm NovemberB．the US had many wildfires
    C．the UK had a dry summerD．East Africa had little rain
    小题2:The author mentions the increase of food prices in Paragraph 3 to _____.
    A．show a lot of people are hungry
    B．prove food prices are very changeable
    C．prove we’re paying for extreme weather
    D．show it’s expensive to stop the climate from changing
    小题3:Which of the following statements does the author probably agree with?
    A．Proper climate action will be useful.
    B．Europe is providing limited job opportunities.
    C．It’s everyone’s duty to protect the environment.
    D．Everyone needs time to get used to extreme weather.

    Amy returned to her small apartment at midnight, tired. Her worst fears raced through her mind. Would the court tell her she couldn’t care for her family anymore? Would the kids go through the sadness once more of being split up and sent away? She was so young, almost a child herself, and yet Amy knew everything depended on her. At that moment, she wondered if she would ever find the strength to see it through.
    From earliest childhood, Amy took care of her younger brothers. Jan, their mother, only added to the family disorder and confusion because of her drug addict. Sometimes they lived in apartments, sometimes in shelters.
    One afternoon Amy was called to the high school, where a social worker was waiting for her. “We’re going to have to put you guys in foster（收养) care.” the social worker said. “No! Don’t spilt us up!” the girl cried out. “Can’t you just leave it the way it is?” The social worker shook his head. Amy’s voice then rose like the howl of a lion protecting her babies: “Why can’t I take them? I take care of them all the time anyway.” The social worker hesitated, and then said, “Maybe. Once you’re 18, you could apply to become their relative caretaker. Then you’d be their foster mother until we find a home where all of you can be together.” “I’ll do it,” Amy said.
    One month later, Amy was named guardian of her brothers for a six-month trial period. It was a remarkable victory for an 18-year-old girl. Her brothers didn’t make her task any easier in the months ahead. However，Amy’s efforts were rewarded when the court allowed her to continue as guardian. Amy’s relief at remaining the kids’ guardian was at risk of being taken away by the pressure she always
    felt to measure up. Social workers still looked regularly over her shoulder and asked the boys shameful
    questions: “Does she feed you? Does she ever try to harm you?” Then one day a visiting social worker
    came over. “We’d like to get the boys adopted into homes,” she said. Sensing that the family was about to be split apart yet again, Amy replied, “Fine, then. Call it adoption if you want, but they’re not going anywhere.” To her surprise, the social worker took her remark seriously. She explained that if Amy were to adopt the boys, they would become like any other family.
    That night at dinner Amy told the boys about the idea. “Cool!” Joey said. He threw a piece of corn at Adam. His brother flicked it back, and pretty soon corn was flying. Amy rolled her eyes. They didn’t have far to go to be like any other family. As the proceedings（程序）ended, Amy thanked everyone. “No,” the judge responded, “Thank you. You saved three kids. Not many family members would do what you’re doing, especially for this many children. I’m very proud of you.” 
    On a lazy spring day, in a modest suburban neighborhood, Amy stood in front of a neatly kept one-story house. She watched her brothers playing basketball, and heard the playful bark of their dog, Tahoe. The young lady had made good on her promise: they had rented a home, a real home, and the boys had gotten their dog. Amy continues to raise her family alone, but has begun taking courses in business management at a nearby community college. Eventually, she hopes to become a child psychologist.
    小题1: Which of the following best describes Amy?
    A．Crazy and toughB．Firm and stubborn
    C．Enthusiastic and generous D．Abnormal and aggressive.
    小题2:From Paragraph 3, we can learn that __________.
    A．The social worker gave in to Amy.
    B．The social worker tried to adopt Amy’s brothers.
    C．Amy tried to apply for the guardian of the brothers
    D．Amy had no idea how to face her family being separated up.
    小题3:By saying “They didn’t have far to go to be like any other family”, the writer means________.
    A．they will live in the same area as other families
    B．they made a deep impression on the neighborhood
    C．Amy is able to take good care of the family
    D．Amy and her brothers would be already just like a family
    小题4:The best title for this text would be___________. 
    A．Standing On Two FeetB．Growing Up Alone
    C．A Lifelong FightD．A Teen Hero
    小题5:What does  the underlined word guardian in paragraph 4 mean?
    A．保护者B．监护人C．收养人D．引导人

    Food safety will become the food industry’s key target as the nation tries to adopt international food standards. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Standardization Administration of China, the Ministry of Agriculture and six other departments announced their 2004-05 development programme for national food standards over the weekend.
    China is conducting a rectification (整顿) within two years. Inspectors will search for all known banned materials in food production. To reduce trading barriers, China will raise the ratio of adopting international standards in the food industry to 55 percent from today’s 23 percent. “Safety is the first consideration for anything entering people’s mouth followed by its nutritious value,” said Hao Yu, secretary-general of the National Food Industry Standardization Technique Committee. He added the usage of food addictives (添加剂) will be a major field for consideration in setting the new standards. On-the-spot checks during the past two years have shown the abuse (滥用) or misuse of addictives in food production and processing has become the biggest threat to food safety. In one case, talcum (滑石粉) powder was found in flour products, which is outlawed according to national food standards.
    “At present there are no methods or standards to test the content of talcum powder in flour,” said Shang Yan’e, an official with the national watchdog on grain and oil inspections. Under the guidelines, all banned addictives will be recorded as inspections increase, Relevant departments have allocated (分配) funds to conduct risk evaluations on current food addictives to fix the limits of their usage. China will adopt international advanced techniques and standards so as to find out the harmful materials in food within a shortest period.
    小题1:China will raise the ratio of adopting international standards in the food industry by _____.
    A．55%B．32%C．23%D．78%
    小题2:_________ is the second consideration for anything people eat according to the passage.
    A．SafetyB．ValueC．NutritionD．Addictives
    小题3:What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A．Addictives are dangerous to people’s health.
    B．Chinese food will be as safe as foreign food.
    C．New food safety standards are to be fixed.
    D．Food safety is a major concern in present China.

    If Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
    While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
    But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
    In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.  More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy. Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers. 
    So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.
    Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
    As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.
    小题1: The opening paragraph is mainly intended to _________.
    A．provide some key facts about Confucius
    B．attract the readers’ interest in the subject
    C．show great respect for the ancient thinker
    D．prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
    小题2:We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students_________.
    A．fight for a chance to learn Chinese
    B．try to get high scores in Chinese exams
    C．have a great interest in studying Chinese
    D．take an active part in Chinese competitions
    小题3: What is the best title for the passage?
    A．Forgotten Wisdom in America
    B．Old Thinker with a Big Future
    C．Chinese Culture for Westerners

    阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
    【1】The air was pleasant and the music was loud in the vast square in front of the New York State office building in Harlem(哈莱姆， 美国纽约市黑人居住区) as health advocates（支持者，提倡者） set up information tables for Harlem wellness Week. It was a wide-ranging effort to educate people about non-communicable diseases: Heart disease, cancer, lung disease, obesity, and so on.
    【2】There is an economic effect caused by these diseases, especially in Harlem, one of the city’s poorest districts. Without healthy employees and healthy customers, you cannot have healthy business, says Patricia Ricketts of the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, which sponsors Wellness Week.
    【3】Dr. Jo Ivy Boufford is president of the New York Academy of Medicine, a Wellness Week partner. She says education about better nutrition is important, but that people with low incomes often lack the means to put what they know into practice. But there is hope. New York is very active in adovating good, effective public health policies. “New York City has banned smoking in public places, both indoors and outdoors. That is a fantastic example of what can be done, without having any impact on the economy. It is a city where you have bike paths. That is a good message for the world, because bikes make your transport active. That is good for your health and lowers air pollution,” she said.
    【4】“It is not enough to focus on the management of disease through medication,” Dr. Boufford says. “That’s why health advocates will be trying to persuade UN officials during Wellness Week to pass resolutions that deal with road and transport design and construction and other potential causes of non-communicable diseases.”
    小题1: What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8words)
                                                                                     
    小题2: Complete the following statement with words from Paragraph【4】.(no more than 3words)_______________ the management of disease through medication is not enough.
                                                                                     
    小题3: What noninfectious diseases are mentioned in the text?( no more than 6 words)
                                                                                  
    小题4:Do you think it is necessary to hold a Wellness Week to prevent diseases? Why, or why not? (no more than 16 words)
