Soccer star David Beckham will be there with his pop star wife Victoria. Elton John is attending with partner David Furnish.
The guest list for the April 29 union of Prince William and Kate Middleton is still being kept secret, but details have begun to leak out, with some coming forward to say they are attending and the Mail on Sunday newspaper claiming to have  the  official  invitation  roster (名单).
The palace dismissed the newspaper's list as speculation (猜测) Sunday.
It won't be clear until the day how the royal couple has balanced the protocol demands (王室规则) that they invite statesmen, diplomats, religious leaders, politicians and the like with invitations to the people they really want to see, particularly the crowd they made friends with when they met and fell in love at St. Andrews University in Scotland.
Kate Reardon, editor of high-society magazine Tatler, said many prominent Britons acted as if they didn't really care about receiving an invitation while secretly checking the mail every day to see if the invitation had arrived.
"Everyone's been hoping," she said.
William and Middleton have showed their modern side by inviting a number of close friends, including some former sweethearts, the newspaper said.
The wedding is not technically a state event, which somewhat limits the protocol requirements applied to the guest list. But royal obligations (职责) still order that a large number of the 1,900 or so seats go to guests from the world of politics, not actual friends of the couple.
The couple have also invited many guests from the charities they work with, and Middleton has used her influence to invite the butcher, shopkeeper and pub owner from her home village of Bucklebury.
President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle were not invited and many other international leaders are also expected to be watching on TV, not from a seat at Westminster Abbey.
It is not clear if treasured Brits from the world of stage and screen and pop music will be on the list.
小题1: Who were not invited to Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding?    
A.David Beckham and his wife.
B.Elton John and his partner David Furnish.
C.People from the charities they work with.
D.President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle.
小题2:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?     
A.The guest list for the wedding is officially announced.
B.The wedding is technically a state event.
C.Only the actual friends of the couple will be invited to the wedding.
D.A large number of guests from the world of politics will be invited.
小题3:The word "prominent" in paragraph 5 probably means         .  
A.honestB.modern
C.well known and importantD.busy and hardworking
小题4:It can be inferred from the passage that         .  
A.their wedding will be held at Westminster Abbey on April 29th.
B.Kate Reardon was invited to the wedding.
C.journalists will not be allowed to attend the wedding.
D.their former sweethearts are sure to attend their wedding.
小题5:The best title for the passage might be         .

Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of fifty.In fact, they say by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were when they were eighteen years old.
The findings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States.The Gallup(民意调查) Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008.At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.
The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry.They also asked about mental or emotional stress.
Arthur Stone at Stony Brook University in New York led the study.His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies.The people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties.
Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older.One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions.They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.
Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.
The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single.But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.
The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older.However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.
小题1:What can be the best title of the text?
A.Happiness Varies with AgesB.Experience More, Worry Less
C.The Older, the WiserD.Being Young, Being Happy
小题2:We can learn from the research that _________.
A.only when people get older will they feel happier

BEIJING — After a night of wining and dining with 50 of China’s richest people, Warren Buffet and Bill Gates told the journalists on Thursday that the biggest difference between eating with Chinese tycoons(企业界大亨) and Western ones was the food.
“I was amazed last night, really, at how similar the questions and discussions and all that were to those in the dinners we had in the U.S.,” said Mr. Buffett.
Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates, two of the best known Westerners here, announced in September, 2010 that they planned to invite 50 wealthy Chinese tycoons to dinner in Beijing to encourage philanthropy(慈善事业) among China’s new rich.
On Thursday, the two men pronounced the dinner a great success, saying that two-thirds of those invited had shown up, and that more than half of them had offered their own ideas on how Chinese philanthropy should work.
The guest list wasn’t made public, but the Chinese news media reported that it included Jet Li, the movie star; Niu Gensheng, the founder of a Chinese dairy business; and Pan Shiyi and Zhang Xin, who control the SOHO China real estate(房地产) empire.
As with four earlier dinners held in the United States, Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates said, no one at the Beijing event was asked to donate money or to promise to engage in charity. “Bill and I won’t be calling anybody. What happens in China will depend on what the Chinese people feel about a project of this sort,” said Mr. Buffett.
China is widely reported to be second only to the United States in the number of dollar billionaires. Mr. Gates and Mr. Buffett said the nation was unique because its wealthy class had arisen almost wholly in the past 30 years, so the philanthropic practices established among European and American dynasties are new here, and open to change.
The two said the dinner wasn’t a long planned matter, but an offshoot of a trip that Mr. Buffett had already scheduled to Guangdong and Hunan Provinces, where BYD Company, a maker of clean-energy automobiles, has factories. Mr. Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway, holds a 10% stake(股金) in the company.
But Mr. Gates suggested that their philanthropic trip wasn’t yet over. “We may do an event in India,” he said.
小题1:What is the text mainly about?
A.A brief analysis of future philanthropy.
B.The development of Chinese philanthropy.
C.An introduction on Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates’ trip in China.
D.A charity dinner held in Beijing by Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates.
小题2:According to the first two paragraphs, Mr Buffett really wanted to say that ________.
A.the dinner was quite a success
B.the food in the dinner was very delicious
C.Chinese tycoons are similar to Western ones
D.it was pleasing to discuss with Chinese tycoons
小题3:We can learn from the text that __________.
A.China has the largest number of dollar billionaires in Asia
B.many people have promised to donate money at dinner
C.Beijing will be the last stop of their philanthropic trip
D.the Chinese news media published the complete guest list of the dinner
小题4:The underlined words “an offshoot” in Paragraph 8 can probably be replaced by “________”.
A.a reportB.an additionC.a beginningD.an end

BEIJING --Seven prestigious universities in China announced Sunday that they would begin using the same independent exam -- besides the national one -- to test students hoping to gain entrance to them in 2011.
The seven are Peking University, Beihang University, Beijing Normal University, Nankai University, Fudan University, Xiamen University and Hong Kong University.
Students who want to gain entrance to any of the seven universities will only have to sit one independent exam, according to the joint announcement.
"This will help lighten the students' load, otherwise they must take several exams for different universities," said the announcement.
Passing the exam could result in more than one interview chance, giving the students more opportunities to choose their favorite universities.
China's college entrance exam system is undergoing reform as universities aim to select students based on independent criteria rather than just using the results of the national exam.
In 2003, Peking University and another 21 universities were allowed to pilot (试用) the reform by using their own criteria to independently select five percent of their students.
Now nearly 80 universities across the country have the right to select talented students based on their own exams.
Education experts regard universities selecting students according to independent examinations as conducive (有助的) to better understanding where the students' talents lie.
Although this may be the case, it has also created problems as students may sit many different exams as they often apply for a number of universities.
To relieve students from such pressures, the national education outline (2010--2020) released in July this year encourages high-level universities to group together to use the same exams.
小题1:If students want to be admitted to the seven prestigious universities , they can ______。
A.only pass the interview.
B.only take the national exam.
C.only take the independent exam.
D.either take the national exam or the take the independent exam.
小题2:What's the purpose of students sitting one independent exam to gain entrance to the seven universities ?
A.It can reduce students' load to take several exams.
B.The universities will have the same standard to test students.
C.There will be less trouble marking students' test papers.
D.It can avoid fierce competition among these universities.
小题3:If students pass the independent exam , they will ______.
A.take the national exam.
B.have one or more interview chances.
C.be admitted to one of the universities.
D.he trained to be adapted to universities life and studies.
小题4: What is the advantage of universities selecting students according to independent examinations?
A.Students needn't take the national exam.
B.Students' education cost can be lowered.
C.Students abilities and talents can be better found.
D.It can encourage middle schools to recommend more qualified students.
