                               Chinese team first lands on Antarctic icecap peak (南极冰盖最高点).  
    A 12-man Chinese team landed on the Antarctic icecap peak on January 18. They are the first people to
reach the peak of Dome A (海穹A). It is 4,039 meters above sea level (海拔).  
    The team built a station there to study the changes of the weather, get ice samples from 150 meters to 200
meters below, and do other studies. So far, the team has got nearly 100-meter long ice samples from a place
about 300 meters under the icecap peak.  
    It is the first time that people have been able to get samples from the icecap peak in Antarctica and it is very
important for people to study the weather changes and environmental changes in this area (地区).  
    The Chinese scientists have also built a weather study system (系统) at the peak. The system can send out
information about temperature, how strong the wind is, and many other things about the weather.  
     The Antarctic icecap makes up (组成) 70% of the earth's freshwater (淡水). By studying Dome A,
scientists can get the lowest temperature of the earth and other information about the world's weather changes.
We can't get this information from other places on the earth because Dome A is the best place for this kind of
studies. So it is very important to land on the peak of Dome A.
1. How many Chinese first landed on the Antarctic icecap peak?
[     ]
A. 18.      
B. 12.    
C.150.     
D.200.
2. The team has got about 100-meter long ice samples _____.
[     ]
A. from 150 meters to 200 meters below  
B. from a place about 300 meters below   
C. from 200 meters to 250 meters below  
D. from a place about 150 meters below
3. They built a weather study system to get _____.
[     ]
A. the earth's freshwater     
B. ice samples from the peak   
C. information about the weather  
D. the news about other countries
4. What does the underlined word "sample" mean?
[     ]
A. 样本
B. 窟窿
C. 容量
D. 板块
5. From this passage, we can infer (推断): After the Chinese team landed on the Antarctic icecap peak, _____.
[     ]
A. we can go there for holidays.  
B. the world's weather must be better and better.   
C. the peak will be the best place for people to live in.   
D. our country will do better in the world's weather research.

       BEIJING (AP)-The government is teaching the people "the right way to spit." A college teaches
students the right way to sit. Two years before holding the Olympic Games, people across Beijing are
on and all-out drive to mind their behavior.
       Visitors are often surprised to see people in China spit phlegm onto the ground.
       Changing all that before the 2008 Summer Games is "important in providing a cultural and historical
legacy to the world for China," said Beijing city official Zhang Huiguang.
       "We will work with newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, the Internet and mobile telephones to
teach people the right way to spit, said Zhang.
       Zhang said her office is organizing a "behavioral training" activity that teaches people to line up for
buses and turning off mobile phones during meetings.
       But spitting is the most serious problem. "You have to spit into a piece of paper or a bag, and then
put it into a dustbin," she explained. Zhang said her office has organized a small group of volunteers who
are going to Beijing's streets to hand out small "spit bags".
       "Public spitters already face fines up to 50 yuan (about $ 7 Cdn)," Zhang said. 
       Others are taking a softer way.
       Lu-chin was born near Beijing, married an American and spent 10 years in the U.S. She said her
heart sank when she and her family returned to live in her homeland and she saw the spitting, littering
and cutting in line. It caused her to start the Pride Institute, a private group that showing the great pleasure
of being more polite.
      "I'm trying to wake up a sense of decency. I know it's there. I saw our beautiful scenery covered
with plastic bags. Sometimes I think I'm the first one to see this and say, 'Why do you treat our country
like a dustbin?' I'm just trying to wake them up and show them they can stop the bad behavior."
       Still others are trying to improve things in a far more traditional way.
       "All of China is looking forward to the Olympics," said Zhang Hui, head of training at the Beijing
Courtesy College.
       "It's really important to improve courtesy before the Games", Zhang said.
       "Everyone knows how to walk, stand and sit," she said. "But we teach them how to do it in a good
way." 
        That means things like sitting, back straight, on the "front one-third" of a chair, she said, "Women
sit with their knees and feet together. Men may sit with their feet slightly apart. If you cross your legs,
you keep the toe of your lifted foot pointing downward." 
        "Every day we teach the students about Confucius and Laozi. Every country has a basis for its
culture." she said. "Confucius and Laozi are our country's basis."
1. government 政府                   2. Confucius 孔子             3. behavior 行为
4. cultural and historical legacy 文化历史遗产                     5. official 官员
6. organize 组织                        7. volunteer 志愿者           8. fine 罚款
9. soft 温和的                          10. decency 高雅              11. courtesy 礼仪
12. slightly apart 稍微分开         13. basis 基础
1. Besides (除了) Zhang Huiguang's way to change people's bad behavior, how many other ways have been
    mentioned in the passage?
[     ]
A. Two
B. Three
C. Four
D. Five
2. What has Zhang Huiguang's office done to teach people good behavior?
[     ]
A. They have given spitters 50 yuan's fine.
B. They have provided a cultural and historical legacy to the world.
C. They have sent volunteers to the streets to give people spit bags.
D. They have worked with the media to teach people the right way to spit.
3. Which picture shows the right way to sit?
[     ]
4. This passage mainly tells us ________.
[     ]
A. from spitting to sitting, Beijing goes all out to look good for Olympics
B. spitting has really become a serious problem in our country
C. foreigners have criticized (批评) us for our bad behavior
D. Confucius and Laozi are the basis of Chinese culture

     "Hey Dad," one of my kids asked the other day, "What was your favorite fast food when you were
growing up?"
     "We didn't have fast food when I was growing up," I told him. "All the food was slow.""Where did you
eat?""It was a place called 'at home,'" I explained. "Grandma cooked every day and when Grandpa got home
from work, we sat down together at the dining room table, and if I didn't like what she put on my plate I was
allowed to sit there until I did like it."
     Some parents never owned their houses, set foot on a golf course, travelled out of the country or had a
credit card (信用卡).
     My parents have never drove me to football practice. This was mostly because we never had heard of
football. I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed. We didn't have a television
in our house until I was 11. I was 13 when I tasted my first pizza; it was called "pizza pie." When I bit (咬)
into it, I burned the roof of my mouth (上颚) and the cheese slid off, swung down, plastered (粘) itself
against my chin (下巴) and burned that, too. It's still the best pizza I ever had.
      I delivered newspapers, six days a week. The paper cost 7 cents, of which I got to keep 2 cents. I had
to get up at 4 a. m every morning. On Saturday, I had to collect the 42 cents from my customers. My favorite
customers were the ones who gave me 50 cents and told me to keep the change.
     If you grew up in a generation (一代) before there was fast food, you may want to share some of these
memories with your children and grandchildren.
     Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?
1. By saying "All the food was slow", the writer implies (暗示) that ______.
A. when he was growing up, he never ate fast food
B. he didn't like fast food when he was growing up
C. his mother made food slowly
D. he had to wait for a long time for the fast food
2. From the writer's childhood life, we know that ______.
A. the writer lived a colorful life
B. the writer's parents treated him badly
C. the writer had to sell pizza to support his family
D. life was harder for him than it is for his children
3. The writer's purpose of writing this passage is to ______.
A. tell his children there was no fast food in the past
B. tell us that life has been changing
C. tell us how hard it is to deliver newspapers
D. make us understand the meaning of life
