4.Anchors on China Central Television (CCTV) will need to do some fast talking to replace the popular English acronyms(首字母缩略词) they're now banned from using.Shanghai Daily reports that"anchors at China Central Television[CCTV]have been banned from saying the English acronyms NBA,CBA,GDP,and the like in their programs."
The replacement for those handy acronyms?Chinese presenters must use the full Chinese name,standardized by the State Administration of Radio,Film and Television.
Although CCTV (oops,we mean China Central Television) presenters must already have a score of at least 94 in their government-rated oral Mandarin proficiency exam,saying the full name of organizations like the CBA or WTO-10 and 6 character's long separately-is sure to challenge even the most skillful anchors.CCTV sports anchor Sun Zhengping tells Shanghai Daily,"A full Chinese explanation of the English initials must be followed if my tongue slips.It is a little trouble but a necessary one because not every audience member can understand the initials."
Although the government isn't giving any official explanation for the shift,it is believed to have to do with a proposal by Huang Youyi,director of the China International Publishing Group,at March's NPC meeting.In his speech,Huang said,"With more and more publications mixing Chinese with English,measures and regulations should be adopted to avoid English invading Chinese.If we don't pay attention and don't take measures to stop the expansion of mixing Chinese with English,Chinese won't be a pure language in a couple of years."
Although China is far from the first country to take measures to protect local languages (the French and Québécois beat them to it by a long way),acronyms are more about saving time than they are about corrupting a language,we would think.Good luck to the CCTV anchors.
56.CCTV anchors have to"do some fast talking"because they can no longerB.
A.speak as slowly as they like                           
B.mix English into Chinese
C.use shortened Chinese expressions            
D.have so much time for their program
57.According the writer,"CBA"is supposed to be replaced with"A"by CCTV anchors.
A.中国男子篮球甲级联赛                              
B.中国篮球协会全国男女篮球职业联赛
C.中国篮球联赛                                                 
D.The Chinese Basketball Association
58.When Sun Zhengping said"if my tongue slips",he meant"if IA".
A.habitually use an English acronym               
B.speak a little bit too fast
C.make a mistake in pronunciation                 
D.say something impolite or improper
59.What's Huang Youyi's proposal?D
A.Using full English names instead of short forms.
B.Translating Chinese terms into proper English.
C.Avoiding Chinese words mixing into English.
D.Keeping our mother tongue as a pure language.
60.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?B
A.China has fallen behind in the matter.
B.The ban is not necessary.
C.Chinese shouldn't be corrupted.
D.CCTV anchors will have a hard time.

57.A.细节理解题.根据第三段:saying the full name of organizations like the CBA or WTO-10 and 6 character's long separately-is sure to challenge even the most skillful anchors可知CBA"应该改为中国男子篮球甲级联赛;故选A.

59.D.推理判断题.根据倒数第二段:If we don't pay attention and don't take measures to stop the expansion of mixing Chinese with English,Chinese won't be a pure language in a couple of years可知黄有一的建议是保持我们的母语为纯语言;故选D.
60.B.推理判断题.根据最后一段:acronyms are more about saving time than they are about corrupting a language,we would think.Good luck to the CCTV anchors可知禁令是没有必要的;故选B.

12.Poverty is not first thing that comes to mind when you think of Japan.After all,there are no children begging on the streets in major cities here.You do not often see Japanese citizens publicly letting out their complaints over the country's economic decline.But senior government researcher Aya Abe says Japan has the fourth highest rate of child poverty among developed countries.
She says she sees that poverty in schools where students admit to only bathing once a week.Some cannot afford to buy pencils for class.
"They may not be on the streets begging or they may not be turning into criminals,but it's there.It's just that we have to open our eyes and see,"Abe said.
Abe owes the increase in child poverty to the country's changing demographics(人口统计),struggling economy and high social security premiums(保险费).She says fewer people live in three-generation households,where the parents and grandparents work.The number of single mothers has increased.The salary for young fathers has declined with the economic downturn.Social security premiums have increased in the last 20years,putting families on the edge of poverty.
Abe says studies conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD ) point to rising poverty in Japan before the global economic crises in 2008.But the Japanese government and the public refused to acknowledge it until then partly because of the shame associated with poverty.
"It was very unpopular for Japanese media to say anything about Japanese poverty,"said Abe."Even though OECD Japan announced it in Japanese,Japanese media didn't make it into the articles."
Abe says new Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama has taken one important step to help alleviate (缓解) the problem.Next year,his Democratic Party of Japan plans to double monthly child care allowances given to families.
But Abe wants the government to expand its financial help even more.She wants it to simplify the process to apply for public assistance and provide educational grants for students struggling to pay for tuition at high schools and colleges.The country now only offers loans.
Abe also says the government must act quickly because she says the problem will only get worse in the next few years.

36.The passage is intended toB.
A.report the result of the studies conducted by OECD
B.tell us about the increase in Japanese child poverty
C.prove that Japan is no longer a developed country
D.introduce Aya Abe,a senior government researcher
37.It seems to be hard to associate Japan with poverty becauseA.
A.no children are seen begging in the streets of main cities in Japan
B.its citizens never complain about the country's economic decline
C.it is one of the few wealthiest countries in the world
D.its government and public refused to acknowledge it
38.According to Abe,several things contribute to the rising child poverty exceptD.
A.high social security premiums
B.the increase of the number of single mothers
C.the decrease of the salary for young fathers
D.the expansion of three-generation households
39.Why was it unpopular for Japanese media to say anything about Japanese poverty?C
A.The Japanese public didn't think it true.
B.It was forbidden by the Japanese government.
C.The Japanese public regarded it shameful to be poor.
D.OECD Japan had already announced it in Japanese.
40.Which of the following is NOT the author's suggestion for alleviating this problem?A
A.Doubling monthly child care allowances given to families.
B.Expanding government's financial help even more.
C.Providing educational grants for poor students.

19.Air pollution is a leading cause of cancer and classified among top human carcinogens (致癌物质),said the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC),which is the World Health Organization's (WHO) cancer agency,on Oct 17,2013."Our task was to evaluate the air everyone breathes rather than focus on specific air pollutants,"the IARC's Dana Loomis said in a statement."The results from the reviewed studies point in the same direction the risk of developing lung cancer is significantly increased in people exposed to air pollution."
    In 2010,lung cancer resulting from air pollution killed 223,000 people worldwide,and there was also convincing evidence that it increases the risk of bladder (膀胱) cancer.Loomis said people in Asia,Eastern North America,some places in Central America and Mexico,as well as North Africa have relatively high exposure(暴露).Developing countries with large populations and booming manufacturing sectors,such as China,are particularly at risk.This week,Harbin,the capital city of Heilongjiang province,became the first Chinese city to officially suspendclasses due to serious smog,really good for teachers and students.
    Many developed countries face similar problems,although to a lesser(较少的、次要的) degree than most developing nations.Between 91 and 96 percent of Europeans living in cities are exposed to levels of PM2.5-tiny particles with a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers-that are higher than the WHO safety limits.
    Although both the composition and levels of air pollution can vary dramatically from one location to the other,the IARC said its conclusions apply to all areas of the world."Given the scale of the exposure affecting people worldwide,this report should send a strong signal to the international community to take action without further delay,"said Christopher Wild,director of the IARC.
60.What's the main task of IARC?B
A.To focus on cancer-causing substances.
B.To evaluate the air quality.
C.To study the developing risk of cancer.
D.To send signals to the international community.
61.The underlined word"suspend"in Paragraph 2 probably meansC.
A.accelerate         B.acknowledge            C.delay           D.decline
62.Why should the international community take action without further delay?A
A.A large number of people worldwide are exposed to air pollution.
B.More and more people in developing countries are exposed to air pollution.
C.Developed countries face air pollution,the level of which is higher than the safety limits.
D.The composition and levels of air pollution vary from place to place.
63.What might be the best title of the passage?D
A.PM2.5,bad effect.
B.Safety limits of air pollution.
C.Signals of air pollution.
D.Air pollution,cancer risk.

9."Beating is a sign of affection,cursing (骂)is a sign of love."
Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times-with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been-but experts say they still ring true.
Today,it seems,Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre-college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way to success.
"Good education doesn't mean letting your child enjoy privileges,especially our boys,"said Song Wenming,an entrepreneur (企业家)in Jinhua,East China's Zhejiang province."They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future."
In August,Song sent his 17-year-old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania.And he is far from alone,even though it takes a lot of money-around $48,000per year-to send a child to a strict military school.
Statistics shows that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.
A few years ago,there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge.Today,there are 28."All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families,some of them were spoiled,"said Jennifer Myers,director of marketing and communications at the school.
Song's only son,Song Siyu,had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school.The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.
Now,three months later,he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35seconds,finishing a meal without looking at his food,and making his bed with precision.He can even take criticism,no matter how unreasonable.
"The training is hard but I know it is good for self-development of individuals,"said Song Siyu.'The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character,they are not personal."
But his enthusiasm is not universal.Ten of the 13Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools.
But for those who stick with it,there is a reward for all the hard work.

51.From the second paragraph,we can know the old Chinese sayingC.
A.is out of date in modern times.
B.is disagreed by rich parents.
C.is still worth trusting                 
D.is deeply believed by better educated parent.
52.The underlined sentence means thatC
A.Song sent his only son to military school,so he feels lonely.
B.Song is the only one who sends his child t to military school.
C.There are other people sending their children to military school besides Song.
D.The fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it.
53.Song Siyu got some achievements in the military school exceptB.
A.taking a bath in a short time
B.having his meal with his eyes closed
C.taking unreasonable criticism 
D.improving his character.
54.How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year?D
A.10        B.13      C.15        D.25
55.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A.
A.It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.
B.Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.
C.Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.
D.Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.

13.BEIJING,Nov.30-The Bird's Nest may have been built for last year's Summer Games but Beijing's Olympic stadium will soon be aiming at fans of winter sports.
As temperatures have begun to drop in recent weeks,so too has the number of visitors to the 80,000-seater venue,which cost 3.6billion yuan (﹩527million) to build.
And,fearing another harsh (寒冷的) winter,National Stadium Co Ltd,which owns the Bird's Nest,yesterday planed to spend 50million yuan on a"snow festival".
From Dec 19,visitors will be able to pay 120yuan to enjoy skiing and snowboarding,among other things,on its newly constructed slopes.
The stadium owners expect to attract more than 20,000visitors a day-twice as many as it currently does-during the two-month festival,which will include events for both the Western and Chinese new years.
Officials revealed it would take just 5,000visitors a day to cover the costs of the project.
"It's not a bad idea.You can ski on man-made snow in Dubai,so why not here?"said Heiko Grasse,a tourist from Germany,yesterday.
Famous outdoor equipment makers and local brands are in talks over sponsorship for the event,the Bird's Nest owners said yesterday,while the capital's television network will also provide 500hours of coverage.
"The Bird's Nest will not have a cold winter again,"Wu Jingjun,the new president of National Stadium Co Ltd,told China Daily yesterday."We will create seasonal events almost every month from now on with assistance from the government and,importantly,the public."
Yang Cheng,a newly appointed vice-president of National Stadium Co Ltd,said the snow festival would run for five consecutive winters if successful.

60.How many people visit The Bird's Nest a day before the"snow festival"?C
A.About 80,000.       B.About 20,000.
C.About 10,000.       D.About 5,000.
61.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?D
A.The"snow festival"will attract more visitors from China than the Western countries.
