    Following the nuclear at the Fukushima (福岛) nuclear power station in Japan, Germany has decided to abandon the use of nuclear energy sooner than it had planned.
    Germany was planning to cut its use of nuclear power slowly over 25 years. But now, the government has speeded up its program. Germany’s government has said that seven of its 17 nuclear reactors (反应堆) will stop working for three months for safety checks.
    Nuclear power has been very unpopular in Germany since the Chernobyl (切尔诺贝利) nuclear reactor disaster in Ukraine (乌克兰) in 1986. Since then, the country has been working on developing new resources of energy.
    The plan to give up nuclear power will cost the country at least 150 billion euros (1.4 trillion yuan)) in investment. Experts say this will likely lead to a rise in electricity prices.
    Some experts think Germany is setting a good example for countries such as the US to follow. Germany now gets 23 percent of its energy from nuclear power –about as much as the US.
    However, France, which relies on nuclear energy for more than 70 percent of its power, shows no sign of changing its policy.
    小题1:
    We can most probably read the article _______. 
    A．in a newspaper B．in a pamphlet(小册子)
    C．in an advertisementD．in a textbook
    小题2:
    The most appropriate heading for this article is _______.
    A．Germany to develop its new resources of energy
    B．Nuclear power no longer popular in Germany
    C．Germany to have safety checks for some nuclear reactors
    D．Germany to end its nuclear energy program
    小题3:
    According to the article, all of the following statements are true EXCEPT______.
    A．In both the US and Germany, approximately a quarter of their energy are from nuclear power now.
    B．The explosion of some Fukushima nuclear reactors has quickened Germany’s pace to abandon nuclear energy.
    C．France, which relies on nuclear energy for more than 70 percent of its power, will follow Germany and cut its use of it at any cost.
    D．The Chernobyl nuclear disaster seemingly cast a huge shadow over the Germans, making them increasingly suspicious of the safety of nuclear energy.

    Japan’ s nuclear crisis is also causing concerns in China. Worried shoppers rushed to stores and supermarkets in the country for salt, with the belief that it might protect them from potential nuclear radiation spreading from Japan.
    Many rushed to buy to store as much iodized salt as possible because of the rumor that iodized salt could help prevent radiation poisoning spreading from Japan’ s Fukushima Daiichi power plant. Consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to China by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea.
    The wave of panic buying spread quickly across the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold in some cities.
    Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province，faced sudden shortages.
    The government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize（稳定）the market. It also dismissed the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning.
    Local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market, too. As well, state-owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply.
    Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared.
    Wang Yun, the General Manager of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, “Our storage reserves can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market.”

    A．salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiation

    B．It admitted that salt could stop nuclear radiation.
    C．Authorities urged state-owned salt companies to increase the supply.

    IQUIQUE, Chile (Reuters) — Rescue workers at the San Jose gold and copper mine in northern Chile had reason to sing this week. A small hole drilled into the earth became a passage to freedom for 33 trapped miners, who spent 69 days underground. “Never have people been trapped for so long so deeply,” says a doctor at NASA, the American space agency, which helped in the rescue.
    But the chief medical officer for the miners said most are in good enough health to leave the hospital within a day or so. The first three recovered and went home Thursday night.
    For much of the day the miners relaxed with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera. The 32 Chileans and 1 Bolivian still wore special sunglasses to protect their eyes.
    A partial mine collapse on 5th August trapped them more than half a kilometer underground. They had to stretch a two-day food supply. For two weeks no one knew if they were alive or dead. Later, they received supplies.
    The first miner rescued on Wednesday was Florencio Avalos. The second was Mario Sepulveda, who talked about how the experience tested his faith. The last miner up was Luis Urzua, who was the shift leader when his crew became trapped.
    Rescuers used a metal cage to pull the miners to safety in less than 24 hours — faster than expected. The rescue capsule was a half-meter wide and known as the Phoenix, an imaginary bird from ancient stories. It bursts into flames but is continually reborn and rises from the ashes.
    Chile’s Navy built the capsule with advice from mining experts and NASA engineers. It worked like an elevator, traveling up and down on a cable through a shaft（竖井）drilled 622 meters into the rocks.
    Millions of people around the world watched the rescue. More than one thousand journalists traveled to the mine in the Atacama Desert to report on the rescue. They joined family members of the miners and rescue crews housed in an area of tents known as Camp Hope.
    小题1:What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Rescued miners speak out
    B．Miners’ life deep underground
    C．A rebirth for 33 rescued miners in Chile
    D．Chilean president honors rescued miners
    小题2:How many rescued miners are still in hospital?
    A．3.B．30.C．33.D．69.
    小题3:We can infer from the passage that ______.
    A．all the trapped miners are Chileans
    B．the Chileans rescued the miners alone
    C．the rescue caught the world’s attention
    D．the trapped miners lived easily underground
    小题4: Which of the following is true of the Phoenix?
    A．It was a wooden cage like a capsule.
    B．It worked efficiently in the rescue.
    C．It was named after a real Chilean bird.
    D．It was built by NASA engineers.
    小题5:The rescue is great for the reason that ______.
    A．33 trapped miners were saved
    B．the American space agency took part
    C．Chilean President was on the rescuing spot
    D．it lasted so long and the miners were trapped so deep

    Chilean rescued miner Edison Pena ran the New York City Marathon on November 7th , less than a month after he was rescued from a collapsed (坍塌的) mine that trapped him and the other 32 miners for 69 days. Pena ran 10 km daily through the mine’s tunnels (巷道) to beat the anxiety, wearing cut-down boots until rescuers sent him a pair of sports shoes through a narrow hole that served as the miners’ “lifeline” to the surface.
    “When I ran in the darkness, I was running for life,” Pena told a news conference in New York. “I was running to show that I wasn’t just waiting around. I also wanted God to see that I really wanted to live.” The miners were discovered alive on August 22---17 days after the mine collapsed, but it took many more days for rescuers to dig a hole big enough to bring them out.
    The New York Road Runners, which organizes the marathon, had invited Edison Pena to the event after hearing his story. They thought he could ride in the lead vehicle or hold the finish line tape, but Pena said last week he did not want to watch, he wanted to run. “I was very eager to take on this big challenge,” he said. “I wanted to show the world I could run.” He hoped to run the 26.2-mile race in about six hours. “I have a knee injury, but I am eager to cross the finish line,” he said.    
    An Elvis Presley fan who asked rescuers to send the singer’s music down into the mine, Pena broke into song at the news conference with the Presley hit Return to Sender.
    On the morning of November 7th, Pena, known as “the runner” by fellow miners trapped with him, set out to cover the course along with thousands of other runners and completed the race in five hours and 40 minutes.
