    HOUSTON (AP) --- A 10-year-old boy fatally shot his father Friday, striking him several times as he sat in the front seat of a SUV to pick up the boy from his mother's home for a weekend visit.
    The incident happened about 3pm on a cul-desac（死胡同）in the 1700 block of Cedar Cove Court, said Sgt. Williams of the Harris County Sheriff's Department.
    An investigation found that Rick James Lohstroh, 41, was shot by his son, who was sitting in the back seat of the man's Toyota 4-Runner, said Sgt. Williams. The shooting took place outside the home of Lohstroh's ex-wife, where the boy lives with his mother and a 7-year-old brother.

    It was an international drug dealing case, one that involved a lot of money and a lot of violence. Agents who had entered the organization had worn wires and collected evidence for years. A conviction(法庭判决) depended on an accurate translation of their tape recordings. “Five languages were involved, “says Liz Elting, 44, one of the owners of TransPerfect, the translation company chosen for the job. “The slightest mistake could mean the criminals would go free.”
    When Elting started her business 18 years ago with Phil Shawe, both were attending New York University’s Stern School of Business. Neither realized just how many situations would require their services. TransPerfect’s 4,000 linguists(通晓外语的人) cover more than 100 languages.
    Getting Ahead with Liz Elting
    What inspired you to start TransPerfect?
    When I was eight, my dad bought a KFC in Portugal. Unfortunately, the Portuguese didn’t want anything American. They thought my dad was a CIA spy! That taught me how fast things can change. I’ve studied in Spain and worked in Venezuela. This business is the perfect combination of my love for languages, cultures and business.
    Is the staff multilingual?
    Many are. I speak French and Spanish. My partner, Phil, who is American, likes to say he speaks English on a good day.
    What languages are requested most often?
    Spanish and Japanese. Chinese, Middle Eastern, Indic(South Asia), and Eastern Europeans are on the rise.
    How difficult is it to manage such a diverse workforce（员工团队）?
    Our challenge is to be culturally appropriate in every country. When we hand our year-end bonuses in the US, for example, we have to remember that in India, bonuses are given in the fall.
    Any advice for someone starting a business?
    Get started before you have kids. In the beginning, I didn’t know how to do this business on the side. I wasn’t married, didn’t have kids, and wasn’t concerned about balancing my work and personal life. Now, with strong managers in place, I can spend more time with my family (husband Michael Burlant and sons Zachary, nine and Jacob, seven), traveling and playing baseball.
    小题1:What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
    A．To report on an international drug dealing case.
    B．To encourage people to start a business before they have kids.
    C．To present the importance of learning foreign languages.
    D．To introduce Liz Elting and her company TransPerfect.
    小题2:What does the underlined word “wires” mean in the passage?
    A．A type of clothes costing a lot of money.
    B．A piece of equipment designed to record messages.
    C．Thin metal worn to protect yourself against violence.
    D．A organization symbol made of thin metal.
    小题3:Neither realized just how many situations would require their services.  is ______________.
    A．a company that offers international legal services
    B．one which has branches in countries all over the world
    C．one whose staff all have to speak several languages.
    D．a company whose services are in great demand.
    小题4:It can be inferred that _______________.
    A．Liz learned that love is the answer to problems of cultural misunderstanding
    B．Liz started her company with a schoolmate at the age of 18.
    C．The success is simply a little beyond Liz and her partner’s expectations
    D．Liz and Phil are now strong managers with rich experience.

    ANCHORAGE, Alaska--The 2004 winner of Alaska’s famous 1,000-mile sled-dog race, the Iditarod, won again at age 53 to become the oldest champion in 2013, a year after his son became the youngest winner.
    Mitch Seavey got his dogs to the finishing line first in 9 days, 7 hours, 39 minutes and 56 seconds. His son, Dallas Seavey, now 26, ended up ranking fourth, behind the older competitor, 43-year-old Aliy Zirkle, who followed four-time champion Jeff King, now 57.
    Mitch Seavey, who lives in Seward, Alaska, operates a seasonal sled-dog touring business. The race was Mitch Seavey’s 20th Iditarod.
    This year’s contest was marked by unusual conditions and unseasonable rain in the northern part of the trail, and conditions that Seavey said helped his team. “It seems like the tougher it is, the better we can do.”
    He also thought highly of Zirkle, a New England immigrant（移民）who now lives in Two Rivers, Alaska. “She’s a great musher（赶狗拉雪橇的人）, and she’s going to win the Iditarod sometime, and probably more than once. We just had a little more energy, I think.” Zirkle, one of the most popular mushers, was greeted by shouts of  “Aliy, Ally” from the fans as she drove her dog team approaching the finishing line on Nome’s Front Street. “I am pretty happy to be here,” she said. “I was going for it.”
    The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race is one of the few major U. S. sports events in which men and women compete on an equal footing. The name “Iditarod” dates from a local Athabascan term meaning “a far, distant place”. Youthful mushers in the race may have some physical advantages--they can do some things more easily. But more importantly, winning the race needs the experience in dog race.
    The year’s event started on Saturday, March 2 with a ceremonial nm in Anchorage. Of the 66 mushers who started the race, 10 had dropped out of competition as of Tuesday night. For his victory, Mitch Seavey will take home $50,400 and a new truck.
    小题1:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A．Mitch Seavey is the oldest competitor in the sled-dog race in 2013.
    B．Mitch Seavey, who operates a touring business, is a New England immigrant.
    C．Mitch Seavey won the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in 2004 and 2013.
    D．Mitch Seavey managed to help his son become the youngest winner in 2012.
    小题2:On which day did Mitch Seavey probably win the champion in the 2013 Iditarod?
    A．On Saturday, March 2.B．On Monday, March 11.
    C．On Saturday, March 9.D．On Tuesday, March 13.
    小题3: Who ranked the 2nd place in the 2013 Iditarod according to the passage?
    A．Aliy Zirkle.B．Dallas Seavey.
    C．Mitch Seavey.D．Jeff King.
    小题4: According to the passage, we can learn that ________.
    A．the sled-dog race is the most important sports event in the US
    B．experience also has a major influence on the result of the race besides age
    C．men and women can’t compete in the sled-dog race together at the same time
    D．all the athletes in the sled-dog race are limited by age to win the sled-dog race

    For their nick-of-time acts, Toby, a 2-year-old dog, and Winnie, a cute cat, were named Dog and Cat of the Year by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.   
    As Amy Paul choked(哽住) on a piece of apple at her home, her dog jumped up, landing hard on her chest and forcing the piece in her throat out. When the Keesling family of Indiana was about to be killed by carbon monoxide, their cat clawed at the wife Cathy’s hair until she woke up and called for help.
    No one could explain their timely heroics.
    Both pets were rescued by their owners in infancy-----Toby as a 4-week-old thrown into a garbage bin to die, and Winnie as a week-old orphan hiding under a barn, so helpless that Cathy’s husband, Eric, had to feed her milk with an eyedropper.
    As the Keeslings recalled it, a gas-driven pump being used broke down, spreading carbon monoxide through the house. By the time Winnie went to rescue, the couple’s 14-year-old son was already unconscious. “Winnie jumped on the bed and was clawing at me, with a kind of angry sound,” Cathy Keesling said. The state police responding to her 911 call said the family was only minutes from death, judging by the amount of poisonous gas in the house.
    Amy Paul’s husband was at his job when she took a midday break from making jewelry and bit into an apple. “Normally I peel them, but I read in Good Housekeeping Magazine that the skin has all the nutrients, so I ate the skin, and that’s what caused me to choke,” she recalled. “I couldn’t breathe and I was in panic when Toby jumped on me. He never does that, but he did, and saved my life.”
    Both Toby and Winnie accompanied their owners to the awards luncheon.
    小题1:What would be the suitable title for the passage?
    A．Great Honors for Cat and Dog
    B．Dog and Cat Honored for Saving Their Masters
    C．Unforgettable Experiences
    D．So Smart Animals Are
    小题2:Winnie saved the lives of its owner’s whole family in an accident by __________.
    A．jumping onto its ownerB．calling for help
    C．making some strange noisesD．clawing at Cathy’s hair
    小题3:Which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “infancy” in Paragraph 4?
    A．babyhoodB．YouthC．Middle ageD．agedness
    小题4:What caused the carbon monoxide spreading through the house?
    A．A pump breaking down.B．A driver breaking into the house.
    C．The burning gas.D．The poisonous gas.
    小题5:Why did Amy Paul choke on a piece of apple?
    A．She was too young to care for herself.
    B．She had a big bite.
    C．She didn’t peel the skin as usual.
    D．The apple was too hard.

    HONG KONG — Hong Kong Disneyland is too crowded, a senior Chinese tourism official said today, hinting that another Disney Park is necessary to accommodate demand from China’s huge population.
    The comments by Shao Qiwei, director of China’s State Administration of Tourism, came a day after Shanghai’s mayor Han Zheng said the city was preparing to build China’s second Disney theme park.
    “China has a very large population. We now have 1.3 billion people. The market is very large. As far as I know, Hong Kong Disneyland is now very crowded,” said Shao, whose comments were broadcast on Hong Kong’s Cable TV.
    The Hong Kong theme park, which opened in September, was widely criticized in January when it turned away hundreds of Lunar New Year holiday makers from mainland China because the park was full. Chaos(混乱) erupted when angry crowds tried to force their way into the park.
    The embarrassing incident prompted a public apology from Hong Kong Disneyland Managing Director Bill Ernest and a dressing down from Hong Kong’s leader Donald Tsang. Authorities are carefully studying the issue of overcrowding in preparation for the possible building of the Disney park in Shanghai, Shao said.
    The official Xinhua News Agency reported Tuesday that no agreement has been reached on the park in Shanghai, quoting senior vice president of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, Leslie Goodman. Hong Kong Disneyland is a joint venture between The Walt Disney Co. and the local government, which shouldered the bulk of the park’s construction fees.
    小题1:Why is it necessary to build a Disney park in Shanghai?
    A．Hong Kong Disneyland can’t meet the need of the large population.
    B．Hong Kong Disneyland is too small and very crowded.
    C．Hong Kong Disney Park was criticized by tourists.
    D．Hong Kong Disneyland is far from the mainland.
    小题2:Hundreds of visitors from Mainland China got angry because ________.
    A．the services in the park were not as good as expectedB．they were not allowed to go into the park
    C．the park was too crowdedD．chaos happened at the entrance to the park
    小题3:The building of a Disney park in Shanghai ________.
    A．has been agreed to by The Walt Disney Co.
    B．is financed The Walt Disney Co.
    C．will be in the charge of the Shanghai government
    D．remains to be discussed with The Walt Disney Co.

    Go natural with organic make-up. Applying unnatural products on your skin wasn’t exactly that nature intended. Try switching to a line of organic make-up and cosmetics for a different way to bring out your natural beauty.
    Home
    Drop a brick in your toilet tank! Literally! According to the EPA, flushing (冲洗) makes up 30 percent of a household’s water use (about three to six gallons per flush). By placing a brick in your toilet tank, you can help to conserve the amount of water used during each flush.
    Work
    Print smarter. Printing and copying can be one of the most costly operations in any office. To save on ink and paper costs, print double-sided and try to fit more than one page on a sheet. More printing tips can be found here: lifehacker.com
    Turn off your computer. Do you leave your computer on over night? If so, you’re using up a good amount of electricity. If you can, try turning off your computer and the power strip it’s connected to. If you can’t, shut off your monitor at least.
    Transportation
    Organize a car pool (拼车). There are many benefits to carpooling. You save on gas and you get to ride in the HOV lines. Get connected with your neighbors and co-workers to start sharing rides and check out this website for more tips: www.erideshare.com.
