Time magazine named Russian President Vladimir Putin its  "Person of the Year" for 2007 on Wednesday, saying he had returned his country from chaos(混乱)to "the table of world power" though at a cost of democratic principles.

He doesn't care about civil liberties; he doesn't care about free speech; he cares about stability. But Putin, 55, is enormously popular in Russia, presiding over a resurgent economy based on income from oil and natural gas. On the other hand, stability is what Russia needed and that's why Russians adore(爱戴)him.

Time magazine said on its Web site that Putin, the son of a factory worker had led Russia with persistence, a sharp vision and a sense that he showed the spirit of "Mother Russia".

The selection came days after Putin announced a plan to hold onto power after his term ends next year. Putin said on Monday that if his close ally(盟友),Dmitry Medvedev, won the presidency, he would serve as Medvedev’s prime minister. "Putin has put his country back on the map.  And he intends to redraw it himself,"Time said. "He will continue to lead his country as its prime minister and attempt to transform it into a new kind of nation, beholden to neither East nor West."

Time said the person of the year distinction, which it has awarded since 1927, is not an endorsement(支持)or a popularity prize but a recognition of the individuals and forces that shape the world. "At significant cost of, the principles and ideas that free nations prize, (Putin) has performed an extraordinary feat of leadership in placing stability on a nation that has rarely known it and brought Russia back to the table of world power. For that reason, Vladimir Putin is Time's 2007 Person of the Year," the magazine said.

Time had earlier selected four other Kremlin leaders for the distinction:  Stalin, who was chosen twice, Nikita Khrushchev, Yuri Andropov and Mikhail Gorbachev.

What does the underlined word "feat" in Para 5 probably mean?

A. Style.           B. Level.          C. Standard.           D. Achievement.

What's the major reason why Putin becomes popular in Russia?

A. His successful economy policy

B. His outstanding ability of politics

C. His great contributions to Russian economy and social stability.

D. His wisdom of changing the world.

What may be the best title of the passage?

A. Putin-Time magazine’s person of the year 2007

B. Putin-a world power leader

C. Putin-a beloved Russian president

D. Putin-an honorable Russian president

What can we inter from the passage?

A. Russia, including the former Soviet Union, has been one of the major countries named person of the Year so far.

B. Only an individual can be named Person of the Year nowadays.

C. Putin played an important role in Russian social and economic troubles.

With eco-tourism on the rise, eco-hotels are fast becoming the darling of the travel industry. These days, however, staying at an eco-hotel doesn’t necessarily mean vacationing in a tree house in the Costa Rican jungle, although that is certainly a choice.
The majority of eco-hotels fall into one of several categories: hotels and resorts that conserve ecologically important habitats; “green” hotels that reduce, recycle, minimize waste, and protect water; sustainable hotels that harvest food from gardens on the hotel property or get part of all their power from renewable energy; hotels that encourage community involvement such as guests taking part in trail clearing; and hotels that offer some form of environmental education to their guests.
As such, eco-hotels are a various group. Stylish urban hotels like the Willard Inter-Continental Washington focus on energy conservation whereas the Rosario Resort&Spa on Orcas Island in Washington State offers a wildly popular “green” vacation package where guests can “take a hike, clear a trail”.
No matter what you call them, eco-hotel, eco-lodge, eco-resort, or green hotel, they’re part of the “greening” of the tourism industry.
Part of what drives this greening of the hotel industry is no doubt competition. Going green is yet another way to distinguish a hotel from the mass of other excellent hotels that consumers have to choose from. But for many hotels, it’s also part of their philosophy. With the concept of “going green” firmly rooted in consumers’ minds, eco-hotels have taken it to the next level, and whether or not money is the driving factor behind the greening of the hotel industry doesn’t matter so much as it’s good for the planet.
【小题1】The underlined part in the first paragraph means _______.

A.lovers like staying at an eco-hotel when traveling
B.eco-hotels are very much loved by the travel industry
C.people choose to stay in a tree house while vacationing
D.romantic love stories often happen in eco-hotels
【小题2】According to the passage, which of the following can be part of the idea of eco-hotel?
A.It has wall of glass.
B.It is comfortable and fashionable.
C.It uses renewable energy.
D.It’s home to endangered species.
【小题3】From the passage, we know the Rosario Resort&Spa is a kind of hotel that____
A.conserves ecologically important habitats.
B.encourages its guests to participate in its greening activities.
C.harvests food from its own garden on its property
D.has courses on the environment for its guests.
【小题4】 People who choose to stay at eco-hotels ______.
A.love to take a hike
B.enjoy the green atmosphere
C.have environmental awareness.
D.want to live comfortably

Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.
The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.
As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.
Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.
"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas," says Wang Lan , a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.
However, in the past few years, many of Wang's student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.
A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.
"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 Yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 Yuan. This is a relief for my parents," Li says.
She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.
"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China," she says.
Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.
【小题1】What's the main idea of the passage? 

A.Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B.Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.

A.The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B.The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C.Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D.After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.

A.more students will come to Australia to work
B.more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C.the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D.more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
【小题4】How much can Li's parents save according to the new regulations? 
A.550,000 yuanB.140,000 yuan
C.410,000 yuanD.86,850 yuan
【小题5】Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation?

B.They can earn more money in Australia.
C.Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.
D.They have to do so according to the new regulations.
