    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    A straight-A student got a C in cooking class and didn't like it. She didn't like it so much that her dad filed a complaint in court about it. He says that the teacher, who is white, discriminated against（歧视） his daughter, who is black. He hopes to have her grade changed from a C to an A and asks for uncertain ecnomic damages.
    Virginia Brown is in the ninth grade at Ashley High School. Since her first year in school, she has had perfect attendance and all her grades have been A's. Virginia's father said her heart was broken when she got the C.
    "She cried the whole weekend," he said. "She wouldn't come out of her room. Her eyes were
    red and puffy. My little girl hasn’t been this upset since her cat got killed by a car when she was 6 years old."
    Virginia is a model student. She's the class monitor. She's on the swim team, the volleyball team, and the track team. She also goes to the chess club. She is a member of the Girl Scouts and sings in her church choir.
    The home economics teacher is 28-year-old Jessica Smith. This is her first year teaching. Ms. Smith said that discrimination was clearly not the truth. “Some of my best friends are African-Americans," she said. “This isn’t a black and white problem. Everybody in America wants to sue（控告） everybody else. I’m going to sue them for defamation（诽谤） of character and whatever else my lawyer comes up with.”
    56. Mr. Brown was upset because ________.
    A. his daughter did a poor job in cooking class

    In order to know a foreign language thoroughly(完全地), four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it.

If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever(无论何时) we can.

    Congratulations! You are the Time magazine "Person of the Year".
    The annual honor for 2006 went to anyone that uses or creates content on the Internet. The  magazine designed special cover－a white keyboard with a mirror for a computer screen where buyers can see their reflection- for the issue, reflecting the importance of user-generated(使用者自创) Internet content as a driving force in the modem world.
    User-generated content on websites such as YouTube has proved the latest twist(转折) in the Internet revolution. YouTube has attracted millions of users and earned its founders $ US1.65 billion when it was bought by Google earlier this year.
    Normally, the magazine describes its person of the year not necessarily as an honor, but as "the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or for ill, and represented what was important about the year". Mr. Stengel said in an interview that to select the "Person of the Year" is to look for someone who's a symbol.
    The magazine did cite(提名) 26 "People Who Mattered," from Chinese President Hu Jintao to a group of three persons that included: U.S. President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfield.
    It was not the first time that the magazine went away from naming an actual person for its
    "Person of the Year". In 1966, the 25-and-under generation was cited; in 1975, American women were named; and in 1982, the computer was chosen.
    In 2005, the winners were Bill and Melinda Gates and rock star Bono, who were cited for their charitable(慈善的) work aimed at reducing global poverty and improving world health.
    65. "You", the Time magazine 'Person of the Year 2006', refers to________.
    A. anyone who reads this magazine     B. anyone who surfs the Internet
    C. anyone who knows the result of the selection  D. anyone who reads the passage
    66. The fashionable character of the Internet revolution is________.
    A. to search information on the Internet      B. to use the Internet to make money
    C. to be cited for "Person of the Year"      D. to create content onto the Internet
    67. The usual qualification of "Person of the Year" is that a person or persons must________.
    A. do the most good to the world in the year    B. not live up to the expectation of the world     
    C. really affect the world the most in the year  D. help the world move ahead in the year
    68. Which of the following is true?
    A. U.S. President Bush was cited for "Person of the Year 2006".
    B. Chinese President Hu Jintao was cited for "Person of the Year 2006".
    C. 'Person of the Year' must be a person or persons.
    D. A rock star is unlikely to be cited for the "Person of the Year".

    Writer and power chair adventurer Mary Laver has not walked for twenty years. Yet the cheerful and positive 60 year old is not only refusing to let her disability get her down ---- she is also planning to cross the length of Britain in a power wheelchair.
    Getting ready for the trip is not easy. She has already run into many problems - not least officials and organizations who view her as a health and safety risk. One police officer wrote to Mary requesting:

    There are other problems in her way though - she is, after all, in her 60’s and has severe rheumatoid arthritis(风湿性关节炎). However, unlike many other people with arthritis, she is no longer in pain.
    "When you are in a power chair and it is going at eight miles an hour, believe me it feels fast … to me it is the Formula One(一级方程式赛车) chair of electric wheelchairs."

    walk. 
    Marcia and Ken powers, of Pleasanton, started the travel across 13 states, through 14 national parks and 16 national forests on Feb. 27 from Cape Henlopen in Delaware. Nearly eight months later, the excited couple walked through water into the Pacific Ocean at Point Reyes, a day ahead of time.

But they enjoyed the French history of St. Louis' the beauty of the Colorado Rockies and the kindness of strangers they met along the way. They particularly remember two brothers ---- a
    doctor and dentist-------who put them up in their homes, after terrible days, and a motorcyclist who gave them water after they failed to find any on Utah's lonely Wah Wah Desert.
