5、Golf in the USA was until quite recently the hobby of old，middle class white men．Not any more．The fact that the class，age and race barriers that existed in the sport have finally been  broken down is due almost entirely to two people．Tiger Woods and Michelle Wie．

Tiger Woods was born in California in 1975 and is one of the greatest golfers of all time．His ethnic background is marvelously rich and varied．His father Earl was of mixed of black，Chinese and Native American ancestry and his mother Kultida，who was originally from Thailand，also had Chinese and Dutch forefathers．

Woods became a professional golfer in 1996 and，less than a year later，astonished the world easily winning the prestigious Masters Colf Tournament，an annual event which takes place at the Augusta Golf Club in Georgia，USA．At 21，he was the youngest golfer ever to win the tournament，but much more important，he was also the first Asian American to do it．

Woods’amazing achievement is put into perspective when you realize that until 1990，no non-white American had ever been allowed to join Augusta Golf Club．Even in 2000，it only had two black members．In fact，in 1977，Clifford Roberts，the chairman of the club and founder of the Masters Tournament，proclaimed：“As long as 1 am alive，golfers will be white and caddies

（球童）will be black．”Roberts died not long after making this racist remark…

Fortunately，his views were not shared by his successors（接替者）and the dramatic appearance of Tiger Woods on the Golf scene radically changed attitudes to the sport and prompted a major surge of interest in the game among ethnic minorities end young people in the USA．

Michelle Wie，a Korean American born in 1989 whose mother was an amateur golf champion in Korea，will probably became the greatest woman golfer of all time．She’s 1．85 meters tall and she can play a golf ball further than most men．Like Woods，she has transformed the world of golf，and wants to do so in even more dramatic ways．She has expressed her determination to play on the men’s tournament circuit，not just the women’s，and has already appeared in several professional men’s tournaments．

Thanks to Woods and Wie，golf in America will never be the same again．

72．What is the text about？

4、Most schools ban chewing gum，but in a few years they might consider changing that rule．Why？ Scientists are finding evidence that gum chewing may be good for your health．It may even help boost（提高）your test scores．

This exciting research is just beginning．And in the meantime，companies are also experimenting with adding vitamins，minerals，medicines，and other substances that could give gum the power to cure headaches and fight everything from serious diseases to bad breath．

People have been chewing gum for thousands of years．Ancient Greeks，Mayas，and Native Americans，for example，chewed on the sap，or resin of certain types of trees．Today gum is a litde more complicated．Gum manufacturers start by mixing resin，wax，and a molecule called polyvinyl acetate to make a gum base．By varying the types and amounts of these ingredients，scientists can make thousands of formulations．

Just what can gum do for your health？Many studies show that chewing gum after meals fights cavities（洞）by stimulating the production of saliva．Saliva helps wash away bacteria that damage our teeth．An ingredient called xylitol，which is added to it，provides an extra dose of cavity－fighting power．This is good for more than just the teeth．Research suggests that good oral health decreases the risk of heart disease，and other serious diseases．

Chewing gum might also be good for your brain．Chewing gum boosts the flow of blood to participants’brains by 40 percent．

But too much chewing can damage the jaw joint．And chewing too much of gum that contains vitamins，caffeine，or a medicine could lead to an overdose．What’s a more，no matter how healthy gum chewing proves to be，it will never be a match for a healthy lifestyle．

Nothing like gum or a vitamin is going to cure a bad dietary habit or a bad exercise habit；it’s not a magic bullet．

64．Why are companies trying to put medicines into gum？

A．Because they want gum to cure some diseases．

B．Because they wish people to become addictive to it．

C．Because they plan to make gum more tasteful．

D．Because they hope to make gum good for teeth．

65．From the last two paragraphs，we can infer that      ．

A．chewing gum has a magic power to cure your bad lifestyle

B．chewing gum can’t  replace the healthy lifestyle

C．chewing gum can lead to a bad exercise habit

D．too much gum chewing proves to be harmful to your teeth

66．How does chewing gum fight cavities？

A．By making people brush teeth immediately after meals．

B．By killing bacteria that are harmful to our teeth．

C．By making people produce more saliva．

D．By adding some more medicines to the gum．

2、Of the six－billion－plus people in the world，600 million live on islands．In other words，one in ten of the world’s population is an island dweller．This is not so hard to imagine when you consider that more than 200 million people live in Indonesia alone―and about 60 million more live on the island of Britain．

No island，or group of islands，is the same．Indonesia，for example，is a nation which consists entirely of islands，nearly 14，000 of them，of which 6，000 are inhabited．Britain is a small， crowded island，with a population density of 243 people per square kilometer，almost twice as much as China．Britain is also the only island in the world which is connected to a continent by a tunnel，the Channel Tunnel between southeast England and North France．

If you ignore Australia，which is an island－continent，the largest island in the world is Greenland，an unusual name for a place which is almost permanently covered in ice! On the other hand，Iceland，which is Greenland’s relatively near neighbor to the east，is much greener．

Why is this？Iceland is far enough north，like Greenland，to be entirely covered by ice，but more than one third of Iceland is volcanically active．Magma，which is molten volcanic rock below the surface of the ground，heats the terrain above it，keeping it green．The story goes that an early settler from Iceland gave Greenland its name in order to encourage more people to live there！

Even the smallest islands have a story to tell．The remotest inhabited island in the world is Tristan da Cunha，which is in the South Atlantic Ocean．Fewer than 250 people live there and they are all related to each other，with only seven surnames between them．The island capital has the romantic name of Edinburgh of the South Seas．

56．According to the text，islands contain      ．

A．one in ten of the world’s population

B．more than six billion people

C．a total of 200，000，000 people

D．much less than 10 percent of the world’s population

57．What does the text tell us by the expression“population density”in the second paragraph？

A．Britain is half as crowded as China．

B．China’s population is around 485 people per square kilometer in the country as a whole．

C．The population per square kilometer is much greater in Britain than in China because of the size of the IK．

D．Britain is twice as populated as China．

58．Where is Edinburgh of the South Seas？

A．On the smallest island in the South Atlantic Ocean．

B．On a romantic，uninhabited island．

C．On a distant，small island inhabited by few people．

D．On a Scottish island in the South Seas．

59．What is the topic of the text？

A．Indonesia Islands                                        B．Islands in the South Pacific．

C．Islands around the world．                          D．Ialand dwellers．

1、

About six years ago，I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City    36    a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table．I couldn’t  help overhearing parts of their conversation．At one point the woman asked：“So，    37    have you been？”And the boy，who    38    more than seven or eight years old， 39   ，”To tell you the truth，I’ve been feeling a little depressed（ 忧郁）lately．”

His words   40  in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing．   41   I can remember，my friends and I didn’t  find out we were“depressed”    42 we were in high school．

The evidence of   43   in children has increased steadily in recent years．Children don’t  seem 44    any more．Children speak，dress，and behave more like adults than they used to．

   45   this is good or bad is difficult to say，but it certainly is different．Childhood   46   it once was no longer exists．Why？

Human development is based not only on born biological states，but    47    patterns of access to social knowledge． Movement from one social role from another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status．Children have always been taught adults’    48    ，but slowly and in stages: traditionally，we tell the sixth graders things we keep   49    the fifth graders．

In the last thirty years，  50   ，a secret - disclosing machine called television   51   installed in 98 percent of American families．It passes information， and indiscriminately（不加区别地），to all viewers alike，without considering they are children or adults．Unable to resist the temptation，many children    52    their attention from printed texts to the less challenging，more vivid moving pictures．

Communication through print，as a matter of fact，    53    a great deal of control over the social information   54     children have access．Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practiced．Children must read    55    books before reading complex materials．
