    A man who served 11 years in prison after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife was officially cleared yesterday, walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same body that sentenced him to a 15?year jail term in 1998—as over 2000 local residents cheered.
    “Police and other law enforcers made the errors,”39?year?old She Xianglin told China Daily, “I believe the law will punish them and give me a just result.”?
    The original conviction came based on a confession which She said was extracted under police torture and the misidentification of a still-unknown woman's body.?
    “The provincial Hubei government has sent a team of police, procurators and high people's court officials to investigate the case,” a spokesperson for the Jingmen government, which administrates Jingshan County, said yesterday.?
    The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife, Zhang Zaiyu, resurfaced late last month after being thought missing for 11 years.?
    This was despite at least five letters from Zhang to her brother over the last two years, which he said he didn't report to police because he thought they were a hoax.?
    Zhang disappeared in January 1994 from Yanmenkou Township, and 3 months later a body was found in a pond that her relatives positively identified.?
    Local police arrested Shen for murder in April 1994,although questions had been raised about discrepancies between the features and clothes of the body and Zhang. Confirmation through DNA testing had not been attempted.?
    　　Zhang Chengmao, Shen's lawyer, said yesterday he would seek State compensation “but we have not reached a figure yet”.?
    When asked about compensation, Shen said, “My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought. Eleven years of freedom cannot be bought. Schooling of my daughter that was stopped because of poverty cannot be bought.”?
    As for his wife, the man said he did not hate her at all. “If she had not reappeared, maybe I would have been wronged for life,” he said.?
    He also said he did not plan to sue Zhang for bigamy, though she had remarried in Shandong Province without divorcing him.?
    小题1:Why did She Xianglin served 11 years in prison?
    A．Because She Xianglin was convicted of murdering his wife.?
    B．Because the Police and other law enforcers made the errors.?
    C．Because through DNA testing the dead woman was his wife.?
    D．Because her wife was missing.
    小题2:Which of the following is NOT true??
    A．The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife reappeared.?
    B．The man said he did not hate her at all.?
    C．Zhang Zaiyu wrote at least five letters to her brother over the last two years to hoax him.?
    D．She Xianglin's mother died from the stress of continually appealing.
    小题3:We can infer from the passage _______.?
    A．She Xianglin will get State compensation?
    B．She Xianglin's daughter dropped out of school because of poverty?
    C．She Xianglin stayed in prison for 11 years?
    D．who murdered the woman is known to all
    小题4:The underlined word “cleared” in the first paragraph means _______.?
    A．清除B．宣告无罪C．（天气）变晴D．移走物体

    小题1:B
    小题2:C
    小题3:A
    小题4:B

    小题1:细节理解题。A项错误，根据第一段第一句中“after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife”可知B项正确，根据第二段第一句知佘向林是由于公安机关和法律部门的过失才导致被监禁11年。C项错误，第八段最后一句说明，没有进行DNA检测。D项错误，妻子的失踪和佘向林被监禁没有直接关系。此项迷惑性较强。?
    小题2:细节理解题。A项是事实。根据第五段内容可知，妻子的重新出现才使误判真相大白。B项是事实。由倒数第三段中“My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought.”一句可知D项是事实。由第六段内容可知C项错误。?
    小题3:推理判断题。佘向林的律师说要政府给予赔偿，通过分析全文可知佘向林无罪，因此我们推测他会得到政府赔偿。B、C两个选项是客观事实，不是推测。D项错误，文章没有说明是谁谋杀了那位女士。?
    小题4:　词义推断题。通过下面一句“...walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same...”可知“宣告无罪”。

    There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect”— conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature. If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.
    Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature — a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible). Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment caused by the “advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?
    小题1:As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _______.
    A．cause widespread damage in the countryside
    B．affected the entire eastern half of the United States
    C．had damaged effect on health
    D．existed merely in urban and industries areas
    小题2:As to the greenhouse effect, the author __________.
    A．share the same view with the scientist.
    B．is uncertain of its occurrence
    C．rejects it as being ungrounded
    D．thinks that it will destroy the world soon
    小题3:The word “offset” in the second paragraph could be replaced by _________.
    A．slip into B．make up forC．set up D．catch up with
    小题4:It can be concluded that ____________.
    A．raising the world’s temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth
    B．lowering the world’s temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disaster
    C．almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade
    D．the world’s temperature will remain constant in the years to come
    小题5:This passage is primarily about __________.
    A．the greenhouse effect　B．the burning of fossil fuels
    C．the potential effect of air pollutionD．the likelihood of a new ice age

    When Colonel Harland Sanders retired at the age of 65, he had little to show for himself, except an old Caddie roadster, a $105 monthly pension check ,and a recipe for chicken.
    Knowing he couldn’t live on his pension, he took his chicken recipe in hand, got behind the wheel of his van (货车),and set out to make his fortune. His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant  owners, who would in turn give him a residual (酬金)for every piece of chicken they sold—5 cents per chicken. The first restaurateur he called on turned him down.
    So did the second.
    So did the third.
    In fact, the first 1,008 sales calls Colonel Sanders made ended in rejection. Still, he continued to call on owners as he traveled across the USA, sleeping in his car to save money. Prospect number 1,009 gave him first “yes”.
    After two years of making daily sales he had signed up a total of five restaurants. Still the Colonel pressed on , knowing that he had a great chicken recipe and that someday the idea would catch on .
    Of course, you know how the story ends. The idea did catch on. By 1963 the Colonel had 600 restaurants across the country selling his secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken (with ll herbs and spices ).

    A．He received a pension of a little more than $100 every month after he retired.

    C．He didn’t succeed in selling his recipe until he tried 1,009 times.
    D．He lived a hard life when he stared the business.
    小题2:The underlined phrase“catch on ”in Paragraph 6 probably means         .
    A．be acceptedB．be graspedC．be popularD．be rejected
    小题3:The sentence “Of course, you know how the story ends” means         .
    A．you are sure to know the result of Colonel Sanders’ business
    B．You are sure to know Colonel Sanders had finished his story
    C．It is certain Colonel Sanders ended his business
    D．It is certain Colonel Sanders knew how to end his story

    Do you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all time, really did foolsexperiments? Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?
    　　Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution (解决办法) to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
    　　Charles Darwin didn’t settle for (满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
    　　Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight (紧的) little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything.
    　　But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present-day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics.
    Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.
    1. 小题1:The passage tells us that Charles Darwin ____.
    A．was a great English scientist
    B．always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult
    C．thought even the simplest thing was important
    D．didn’t get well with others
    2.小题2:The phrase “set aside” most probably means____ .
    A．throw awayB．store up
    C．put to useD．realize
    3. 小题3:The author of the passage tries to ________.
    A．convince us that Charles Darwin, Galileo and Newton are the greatest scientists in the world
    B．draw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple things
    C．prove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speed
    D．draw our attention to everyday happenings around us
    4小题4:Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Darwin really did fools experiments.
    B．According to some people Darwin did foolish experiments.
    C．It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple.
    D．Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics.

    I'll be the first to admit that I am a technophobe(对技术有恐惧感的人）.Who would have guessed that a website would help repay a 20-year-old loan?
    I'1l always remember my last day at school. My best friend, Jenny, had organized a party in the Sixth
    Form Common Room;
    Jenny asked me to go to the supermarket with her to buy all the snacks. "I'm really looking forward to this party, Stingy," she said. Everyone called me Stingy instead of Debbie because they thought I didn't like to spend money. Actually, it was true.
    "There's lots of money in the kitty(零星凑起的一笔钱）. Let's go crazy!" Going crazy meant buying enough snacks to feed an army. It came to ￡ 19.90,which was a lot of money in 1982.
    Jenny gave me a guilty( 内疚的) look. "I've left-the kitty money in the common room. Can you pay and I'll give you back the money?"
    "Sure," I replied, trying to look relaxed. ' Neither a lender or a borrower be' was my motto but I didn't want to look stingy(小气). I gave ￡20 to the impatient shop assistant.
    Well, the Party was a great success. So great that I completely forgot about my loan until I was flying to America the next day.  I was going to live with my uncle's family until I started university.
    I tried to get in touch with Jenny but her family had moved. My ￡20 was lost. Until...
    I'd heard about a website called Friends Reunited which helped people contact old school friends.  My husband helped me log on and find my school. There she was,Jenny Frost.
    I'm now married with a beautiful daughter called Debbie. Does anyone know how to get in touch with Debbie 'Stingy' Jones? I still owe her ￡20!
    We met two months later and the ￡20 was returned, plus interest(利息)of course. After all, I'm a bank manager now, so loans are my business.
    小题1:Why did Jenny spend a lot of money on the snacks?                                                     
    A．Debbie had money.B．There was money she could use.
    C．She wanted Debbie to stop being stingy.D．She wanted to be crazy.
