    My daddy doesn’t know how to express love. It is my mum that makes everyone happy and calm in
    our family; while Daddy only works day and night, never looking us in the face. But Mum makes a
    wrongdoing list of us for Daddy scolding us. She was a spy!
    Once, I stole a candy. Daddy asked me to put it back and told the shopkeeper I would like to carry
    loads for her. Well, Mum told him I was jut a child.
    I broke my leg on the playground. It’s still Mum that held me tightly in her warm arms. Daddy
    drove us right to emergency room. He was asked to move the car away for that space was for
    ambulance. Daddy got angry, “What do you think of it? A touring car?”
    On my birthday party, it was, again, my mum that took over the cake for me. And my dad was busy
    with blowing balloons and setting the table and doing the housework.
    While looking over our album, my friends always ask, “What does your father look like?” God
    knows. He photos others all the time. So there are many photos of my mum and me, pretty and lovely
    photos.
    And I still remembered the day when dad taught me riding. I asked him not to let his hands away,
    but he did the opposite. And I certainly fell onto the ground. I got angry and decided to get on the bike
    and rode. But he smiled again.
    Mum wrote every letter to me while I was in college. He, except checks, did write a letter, but
    extremely short, just a few words, saying, “Without your playing on the lawn, my son, my lawn grows
    prettier than before.”
    Every time I phoned, it seemed that he wanted to talk, but he would say, “I will get your mum.”
    On the day of my wedding, Mum cried as if we would never meet again, while dad went out with a
    nasal sound.
    From very young, I heard him saying, “Where have you been?” “When do you go home?” “Did you
    get oil for your car?” “…” Dad really knows nothing about showing love. Unless…
    Maybe he showed while I didn’t notice.

    The stereotype(固有观念)of computer scientists as nerds who stay up all night coding and have no social life may be driving women away from the field, according to a new study published this month. This stereotype can be brought to mind based only on the appearance of the environment in a classroom or an office.
    “When people think of computer science the image that immediately pops into many of their minds is about the computer geek(怪人)surrounded by such things as computer games, science fiction and junk food,”said Sapna Cheryan, a University of Washington assistant professor of psychology and the study’s lead author. “That stereotype doesn’t appeal to many women who don’t like the portrait of masculinity(男性化).”
    Cheryan set up four experiments involving more than 250 female and male students who were not studying computer science to look at possible reasons why the proportion of women in the field is dropping while the proportion of women in such disciplines as biology, mathematics and chemistry is increasing.
    In the first experiment,students entered a small classroom that either contained objects stereotypically associated with computer science such as Star Trek posters, video game boxes and Coke cans, or non-stereotypical items such as nature posters, art, a dictionary and coffee cups. The students were told to ignore these objects because the room was being shared with another class. After spending several moments in the classroom, the students filled out questionnaires(调查问卷)that asked about their attitude toward computer science.
    Women exposed to the stereotypical setup expressed less interest in computer science than those who saw the non-stereotypical objects. Men placed in the same situations did not show a similar drop in interest in computer science. Cheryan said this study suggests that a student’s choice of classes or a major can be influenced by the appearance of classrooms, halls and offices.
    1. The underlined word “nerds” in Paragraph 1 probably refers to “______”
    A. dull persons     B. active persons     C. intelligent persons      D. funny persons
    2. Women are less likely to choose computer science because__________.
    A. it is too difficult for them       
    B. they have wrong understanding of it
    C. the lifestyle of computer scientists turns them away
    D. they don’t like the social life of computer scientists
    3. A woman would probably lose interest in computer science when she sees a ______.
    A. Star Trek poster     B. nature poster    C. dictionary      D. coffee cup
    4. What can influence a woman’s choice of classes, according to the passage?
    A. The contents of computer science.     
    B. The space in the classroom.
    C. The number of students in the classroom.
    D. The classroom environment.

    Sir William Osler has a few words for you: “In the Life of a young man the most essential thing for happiness is the gift of friendship.” Truer words were never spoken. For what more could you ask than comradeship during the peaks and valleys of life? To whom else but a close, valuable friend can you show off your successes and complain about your failures or losses?
    What is a “good friend”? How is he best described? Well, it has been my observation that although many will cry with you, few can sincerely rejoice (欣喜) with you. Therefore, in my opinion, a good friend is one who can enjoy your successes without envy; one who can say, “That was wonderful! You can do it again, even better if you want!” and mean it. Nothing taxes a friendship more than the prosperity of one and not the other. Even the closest of friendships often cannot resist such pressure and fail. No wonder many minor friendships go down day by day for the same reason.
    A person of good character and sound moral, of honor and humor, of courage and belief is a friend to be sought and treasured — for there are few. Too often we hear, “If you can count your good friends on more than one hand, consider yourself blessed.”
    What makes a friendship last? Well, I don’t know all the answers, but one of my observations is that most good friends usually have similar tastes. They generally like and dislike many of the same things. There also usually seems to exist a similarity of personality types — especially in the fundamental values of life such as honesty, sincerity, loyalty, and dependability. More often than not, birds of a feather do fly together. I don’t think it matters a lot whether one prefers jazz or hockey to another’s Mozart or ballet. Much other matters far more: relying, sharing, giving, getting, enjoying; a sympathetic ear always there; criticism when it can help; praise — even if only because it would help. With not many people on this earth will you find this much in common. When you find one, hang on to him, for a good friend found is a rare treasure.
    1. The function of Paragraph 1 is to introduce _____.
    A. a famous saying

    The British are the most voracious(如饥似渴的) newspaper readers in the world.
    They read newspapers at breakfast ; they walk to the bus reading a newspaper; they read a newspaper on bus, as they go to work; and on the way back home, after work, they are engaged in reading an evening newspaper.
    There are many" morning papers", both national and provincial. The most famous is The Times. Different from what many foreigners believe, this is not a government newspaper. The various newspapers usually have their own views of the Communist Morning Star. The Labor Party and the Trades Union Congress no longer have a daily newspaper to represent them.
    Bold headlines and a variety of photographs are features of the British press. Some newspapers, such as the sober Daily Telegraph and The Times, use photographs sparingly(节省). The more“popular”newspapers, using the small or "tabloid"(小报) format, such as the Daily Express, the Mail, the Daily Mirror and the Sun, use pictures extensively and also run strip cartoons and humorous drawings, some of which present striking pictorial comment on politics.
    Besides offering features common to newspapers all over the world, British newspapers specialize in pages devoted to criticism of the arts and a woman's page. One feature found in many foreign newspapers is missing in British papers：the serial(连载).
    Nearly all papers pay special attention to the reporting of sports and athletics. The evening newspapers are often bought because the buyer wants to know the winner of a race, or to get good tip for a race that is still to be run. There is no censorship(审查) of the press in Britain (except in wartime), though of course all newspapers—like private persons—are responsible for what they publish, and can be sued for libel （为诽谤而被起诉） for publishing articles that go beyond the bounds of decency(正派), or for ignorance of court”. (e.g. calling a man a murderer while he is still being tried．Such cases are not often)
    1．Which of the following does NOT serve as an evidence(证据) that the British are the great newspaper readers?
    A．They read newspapers at breakfast.       B．They read newspapers at work.
    C．They read newspapers on bus.           D．They read newspapers on the way back home.
    2．Many of foreigners think that_______.
    A．The Times is an organ (喉舌) of the government
    B．The Times has its own views on politics
    C．The Times is the most famous newspaper in the world
    D．The Times pays too much attention to the reporting of political events
    3．British newspapers are characterized by ________.
    A．bold headlines                       B．various kinds of photographs
    C．striking pictorial comment on politics      D．both A and B
    4．Which of the following conclusions can NOT be drawn from the passage?
    A．Englishmen always take every possible chance to read newspapers.
    B．In Britain, newspapers must be carefully examined by the authorities(当局) before their publication for fear that they present anything offensive.
    C．Few British newspapers publish libelous articles.
    D．The Times is one of the world-famous newspapers.

    Today, among people everywhere, there is an increasing awareness and worry about the steady growth in the world’s population．A recent survey conducted by the United Nations Fund for Population Activities （UNFPA） reported that this growth will continue until the end of the next century．For developing countries alone, the annual average population growth is, at present, 4．6% compared to 2．0% for developed countries．At this rate, the world’s population will reach 10．2 billion by the turn of the 21st century．With the growth in population is the problem of food security… the guarantee of a steady supply of food．The unstoppable growth in population justifies the Malthusian Doctrine that population of a region will continue to grow unless checked, and this is of course alarming since it will inevitably lead to food shortages of considerable proportions．
    Our forests are an abundant source of food and fuel, two items essential in sustaining life．Above 30% of the world’s land surface is covered by such forests．In Asia alone, more than two billion people depend heavily on forest products for their subsistence and survival．To maintain a reasonable balance between population growth and food supply, this natural source of life — sustaining food and fuel must be conserved and protected from its worst enemy — man himself．It is appalling （令人震惊的） to note that in many developing countries, which are themselves heavily hit by population-food imbalance, governments approve the cutting down of forests to meet their immediate needs for saleable timber, and also for agricultural land．Often the cutting down and burning of forests is conducted with total abandon owing to the absence of sound forestry techniques and management．At the rate tropical forests are now being cleared each year, the world’s tropical forests will be completely destroyed within the next 100 years．
    In order to maintain food security for the world’s population, the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations （FAO） has launched a campaign aimed at ensuring food supply, maximizing stability in the flow of this supply and ensuring access to it by all．Forestry, according to the FAO, plays a vital role in making it possible to fulfill all its three objectives．Its most important role is that of conserving soil and water．Trees provide natural protection against soil erosion （侵蚀） by absorbing the excess water brought by heavy rains．
    1．The first paragraph tells us that ____．
    A．the flow of food supply is the result of population increase．
    B．the world population has reached the 10-billion mark．
    C．the problem of population growth has caused considerable alarm in a few countries．
    D．the problem of food supply goes hand-in-hand with population increase．
    2．The Malthusian Doctrine presents ____ as far as world population is concerned．
    A．an optimistic view of the future     B．a pessimistic outlook for the future
    C．an encouraging picture          D．an indifferent picture
    3．In this context, “this natural source of life — sustaining food and fuel” （in Paragraph 2） refers to ____．
    A．the flow of food supply           B．forests
    C．woodland products               D．man’s worst enemy
    4．The three objectives of the FAO can be replaced by ____．
    A．stopping population growth       B．increasing food production
    C．achieving food security          D．ensuring maximum utilization of forests

    Besides calling 911, here is what to do in some life-threatening emergencies when no one is around to help.
    Lost in the wilderness
    First, you’ve got to acknowledge you're in trouble. Stay where you can be seen, clearly and remember to rest. Keeping a sense of humor helps too -- it reduces strum and helps creative thinking. In a wide open area, make a colorful cress out of rocks to show your present position.
    Choking
    Aim to hit the top of the chair against your stomach, in the soft part below the bony upside-down V of the ribs (肋骨). Make a sudden push against the chair. If you still can’t breathe after six tries, call 911, even if you can’t talk. Write the word “choking” somewhere nearby, and leave the line open until help arrives.
    Severe bleeding
    Use your hand or clean cotton, or paper towels, or a scarf, or any cloth you can find, and push down on the wound until the bleeding stops. But if you put a band around your leg tightly, you’re going to close the vessels (血管) to the entire leg. In this way, you could loose foot.
    Bear attack
    If yon surprise a bear, don't run away. That invites an attack. Instead, stand up and back away slowly, without looking the bear in the eyes. If it does charge (猛冲) at you, stick out your chest, raise your arms, and spread your legs. Shout at the bear, to frighten it. If it's going to attack, lie facedown, with your hands held firmly behind your neck. Play dead until you're sure the bear is gone.
    1. When you see a colorful cross made of rocks in the wilderness, you know ______.
    A. someone is bleeding                  B. someone is choking
    C. someone is lost                      D. someone is attacked by a bear
    2. If you are still choking after six tries, you should ______.
    A. keep a sense of humor                 B. call 911 and leave the line open
    C. use your hand our clean cotton         D. lie down with your hands behind your neck
    3. Don't tie around your bleeding leg tightly, or you could ______.
    A. stop bleeding  B. reduce stress   C. loose your foot      D. cause breathlessness
    4. The passage is mainly teaching us how to ______.
    A. survive the emergencies                      B. avoid a bear attack.  
    C. deal with a choke                         D. find our way

    Everyone makes mistakes in life, but for whales and dolphins, the “mistake” of landing on the shore costs the highest price---their lives.
    People living along the coast of Australia and New Zealand have been shocked and saddened by the number of whales and dolphins that they have found on their beaches recently. Since November 28th, 96 whales and dolphins have died in Australia and 53 whales died in New Zealand. Although 20 whales were saved, some of these were not expected to live, as they were too weak to swim with the others back to sea.
    Bob Brown, leader of Australia’s Green party, said the mass beaching was caused by the recent “sound bombing” of the ocean floor between the two countries. This is a method of testing for oil and gas reserves (储藏量).
    But mass beaching of whales has long puzzled scientists. Typically most members of the stranded (搁浅) group will appear to be perfectly healthy. “Some researchers believe that close relationship within the group causes the problem, if one gets into trouble, the others will not leave” said Shery Gibney, a leading biologist in New Zealand. “Some will come in and try and assist it; if they get trapped on the beach, then more will come.”
    Another common theory is that the whales’ navigation (导航) system are thought to break down in some way. It has been said that whales follow electromagnetic (电磁的) patterns in the sea-bed. The whales can get confused because these patterns sometimes change. That would be a bit like a new roundabout (环状交叉路) being built on a road you were used to driving on. You might be confused for a minute when you come to it for the first time, and you might even take a wrong turning before getting back on your route.
    A different idea is that when whales chase fish for food they end up in shallow waters because they are not paying attention to where they are going.
    And yet, from time to time a group will swim on purpose into shallow waters and end up on the beach, where they die. If returned to the sea, some whales often show great determination in restraining themselves.
    小题1:________ whales and dolphins would probably die in this mass beaching along the coast of Australia and New Zealand.
    A．Less than 100B．Less than 150C．More than 150D．149
    小题2:Which of the following can be used to explain the term “sound bombing”?
    A．The terrible sound that is caused in the war between two countries.
    B．Human activities that aim to explore the ocean floor.
    C．The loud sound that whales and dolphins make.
    D．The earthquakes that happen on the ocean floor.
    小题3:Which of the following couldn’t probably lead to the mass beaching of whales?
    A．A change in the electromagnetic patterns that whales follow.
    B．New roundabout being built on a road.
    C．Their full attention to the search for food.
    D．Exploiting natural resources in oceans.
    小题4:The passage is mainly about _______.
    A．that whales and dolphins may make mistakes as well as human beings
    B．how scientists have found the reasons for the mass beaching of whales
    C．how human beings make use of the ocean resources
    D．why the mass beaching of whales happens
