    The creation of a Chinese Green Card in 2004 was a milestone in the country’s immigration law. Five years on, the card is an increasingly sought-after document.                                                                                                       On August 15, 2004, the Regulations on Examination and Approval of Permanent Residence
    oAliens in China created a Green Card system granting qualified foreigners the right to live in
    China permanently.
    Liu Lili, who works in the Exit and Entry Administration of Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau, has watched the Green Card system develop since its inception. She said nearly all applications received by the Bureau are approved. So far, 323 people have been granted a “Green Card” qualifying them for permanent residence in Beijing. Another 15 are awaiting final approval. It takes around 6 months to process each application.
    Of the 323 Green Card holders, 94 are wives or husbands of Chinese citizens; 50 are minors dependent on their parents; 20 are senior citizens returning to live with relatives; 114 are individuals who have made outstanding contributions or are of special importance to China (another 7 are their family members); and 23 are high-level foreign personnel who hold posts in businesses (another 15 are their family members).
    Liu said the authorities had been granting residence to returning senior citizens for some time before the Green Card system was formally launched .The government has approved permanent residence for over 3,000 foreigners since the implementation of the Law on Control of the Entry and Exit of Aliens which was adopted by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress in November 1985.
    Four groups of people are eligible for permanent residence: high-level foreign personnel who hold posts in businesses that promote China’s economic, scientific and technological development or social progress; foreign citizens who make large  direct investments in China; persons who have made outstanding contributions or are of special importance to China; and people who come to China to be with family, such as husbands and wives, minors dependent on their parents, and senior citizens dependent on their relatives.
    Liu said that most applications she dealt with were from American citizens.
    Why do overseas citizens apply for permanent residence status in China? The main concern, aid Liu, is the political factor. Once people have a “Green Card”, they feel they are accepted and trusted by the Chinese government. The “Green Card” also facilitates entry and exit. With permanent residence status, visas are no longer needed and people can enter and leave the country using only a valid passport. China offers outstanding career opportunities and is seen by many as safer and more secure than many other countries, said Liu.
    Liu said that Green Card holders have the same rights and responsibilities as Chinese citizens. However the card is not equivalent to Chinese nationality and holders are not allowed to vote in elections, hold political office, or serve in the military.
    Obtaining a Green Card is not easy. The qualifying conditions are tough. Unless you are a close relative of a Chinese citizen，you will either have to invest a substantial amount of money in the country or make a genuinely outstanding contribution to the country’s development.
    To meet increasing demand, he authorities are considering making the Green Card more available by broadening the range of applicants without lowering the requirements, aid Liu, but she gave no further details.
    小题1:Which of the following can’t get a green card?
    A．A foreigner whose wife of husband is of Chinese nationality.
    B．A foreign child whose parents are Chinese citizens.
    C．A foreigner who invests large sum of money in China.
    D．A foreigner who works in China for a long time.
    小题2:If a foreign gets a Green Card in China, he /she_________.
    A．has the right to vote in China.B．can be a high official in China
    C．can enter or leave China without a visaD．becomes a citizen of Chinese nationality
    小题3:From the article we can see foreigners apply for Green Cards mainly to ________.
    A．show that they are importantB．be accepted and trusted by the Chinese
    C．make entry and exit easierD．make more money.
    小题4:Which of the following is not the reason for foreigners to work or live permanently in China?
    A．They can find satisfactory jobs.
    B．China is more secure country than many.
    C．They have their professions, families and investments in China.
    D．The weather, working conditions are better than better than their own countries.

    SEOUL, Sept. 26 (Xinhua) — Hundreds of families from the two Koreas on Saturday met at the DPRK's (朝鲜人民主主义人民共和国) Mount Kumgang resort (度假胜地)in the first government-arranged reunion since the inauguration（就职）of South Korean President Lee Myung-bak.
    Earlier in the day, 96 South Koreans, of whom more than three-quarters were at the age of 70 or older, crossed the inter-Korean border（韩朝边界）, heading for the Kumgang resort to meet their families separated by the 1950—1953 Korean War.
    Arriving at the DPRK's resort in the afternoon, South Koreans met with their long-separated families at a large-scale gathering at around 3 p.m. local time, and later are to have a dining meeting in the evening.
    The separate, personal meetings are planned to be held on Sunday.
    The South Korean families will come back home on Monday after the three-day gathering, followed by the second-session reunion event which will last from Tuesday to Thursday.
    The reunion, which had become a semi-regular event(半定期举行的活动) since 2000 after a historic inter-Korean summit in Pyongyang(平壤), was suspended（取消）in 2007 with a worsening mood in inter-Korean relations.
    Saturday's family meeting, however, came as a result of an agreement reached last month between the DPRK leader Kim Jong-il and Hyun Jeong-eun, chairwoman of South Korea's Hyundai Group.
    The recovery of the family meetings is regarded as conveying the DPRK's reconciliatory(和解) intentions, along with the country's recent moves including lifting a ban(解禁) on cross-border traffic to and from the Kaesong Joint Industrial Park, local media said.
    About 600,000 South Koreans are believed to have relatives in the DPRK. Ordinary citizens were not allowed to make phone calls, send letters or exchange e-mails across the border.
    小题1:.  Why were there so many families separated according to the passage?
    A．Because they were from different countries.
    B．Because of the war which broke out in 1950.
    C．Because of the ban that ordinary citizens were not allowed to cross the border.
    D．Because the different policies between the two countries.
    小题2:.. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A．It is the first reunion since they were separated.
    B．These separated families haven’t seen their relatives for more than 7 years.
    C．The first day of the reunion fell on a Saturday.
    D．Ordinary citizens are now not allowed to make phone calls, or exchange e-mails across the border.
    小题3:.  The underlined word “reunion” can be replaced by _______________.
    A．living together again
    B．joining together again
    C．reaching an agreement again
    D．meeting together again
    小题4:.  What’s the best title of this news?
    A．South Korean, DPRK families meet in reunion event.
    B．A Special Family Gathering.
    C．The improvement of inter-Korean relations.

    Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of fifty．In fact, they say by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were when they were eighteen years old．
    The findings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States．The Gallup（民意调查） Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008．At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five．
    The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry．They also asked about mental or emotional stress．
    Arthur Stone at Stony Brook University in New York led the study．His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five．The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties．Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies．The people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties．
    Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older．One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions．They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences．
    Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry．
    The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single．But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age．
    The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older．However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men．
    小题1:What can be the best title of the text?
    A．Happiness Varies with AgesB．Experience More, Worry Less

    AIDS’ Threat to Asia Grows
    NEW DELHI----Just a few years ago, Mala was a typical middle-class Indian housewife. She cooked, cleaned and looked after her two small children.
    Last year, her life took a tragic turn. Her husband died of AIDS; she was found out HIV-positive and her mother-in-law took her children away from her, saying they would get the disease. “When friends dropped for a visit, she would introduce me, saying, ‘She is my son’s widow. She has AIDS,’” said Mala. AIDS is now described as “explosive(炸药)” around the world. A study of a hospital in the port city of Durban in South Africa, where the world’s biggest and Africa’s second AIDS conference opened last Sunday, found that almost half the beds in medical wards (病房) were occupied by AIDS patients.
    South Africa has one of the world’s fastest growing HIV infections, with 1,700 people infected daily, adding to the 4.3 million, or 10 percent of its population, living with HIV. Until now, Asia has been more successful in holding the AIDS virus than Africa, where the disease has killed about 12 million people.
    AIDS is now threatening to surround many of Asia’s poverty-stricken countries. Countries in Asia, such as Cambodia, and Thailand, have HIV infection speeds over 1 percent. But the low speeds hide huge numbers of infected people, because of the population base.
    In India, for example, 3.7 million are infected, more than in any other country except South Africa. In China, an estimated 860,000 people (the actual number may be a little larger), mainly drug users, live with HIV/AIDS. Gordon Alexander, a senior advisor for UN AIDS in India, estimates that the number hit by AIDS in Asia will climb about eight million over the next five years from about six million.
    In many Asian countries, the battle against HIV is a social and cultural one against public discussion of sexual health put a nationwide media campaign into action to limit the speed of HIV through unsafe sex. Brenton Wong, an official for Singapore’s Action for AIDS, says the actual HIV incidence in the city state of 3.9 million people is at least eight times higher than official data. “Shame and deny is still very, very common so people are afraid to get tested and many times won’t even tell their families if they test positive,” said Wong.
    小题1:We can conclude from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph that ______.
    A．The official data always tell lies and cheat people to hide the truth.
    B．3.9 million people in Singapore suffered from AIDS.
    C．Singapore has a population of 3.9 million
    D．The number of people infected with HIV is at least eight times larger than that of the AIDS patients in Singapore.
    小题2:It is judged that there are ______ people hit by AIDS in Asia or so.
    A．4.3 millionB．6 millionC．8 millionD．3.7 million
    小题3:According to the passage, the main reasons that AIDS spread in Asia is through_______. 
    A． bloodB．unsafe sexC．loveD．drugs
    小题4:Which of the following statements is not right?     
    A．The battle against Aids in many Asian countries is against their culture and
    social customs.
    B．Though the HIV infection in Asia develops with low speed, the infected number
    is still quite large compared to other continents.
    C．India has the second largest number of HIV infected people.
    D．Aids might affect the poverty-stricken countries more severely.

    ScienceDaily (May 28, 2010) --- Researchers at Oregon State University (OSU) have made important progress in work that should lead toward robots that can not only walk and run very well, but use little energy at the same time.
    Studies are moving closer to designing robots that could do dangerous work, create prosthetic limbs（假肢）for humans that work much better than in the past, or even help some people who use wheelchairs to get “walking” abilities.
    “Researchers have been working toward robot movement for a long time,” said Jonathan Hurst, a professor at OSU. “What we’ve done is to study what behavior is really possible for a robot.”
    The movement of humans and other animals is difficult to copy. Using little energy, they can move easily over hard areas, and enjoy balance from muscles（肌肉）. They have different ways to deal with forces, such as holding something hard in place rigidly（牢牢地）, like the act of holding a cup of coffee level during a car ride. In their recent studies, the OSU researchers proved that these two abilities are mutually exclusive（相互排斥的）. Humans deal with this problem by using pairs of muscles. For a robot, the more it’s able to do one of these tasks, the less able it is to do the other.
    Presently, robots that can walk and run must be as rigid as possible while walking. But this way uses a lot of energy. The OSU researchers are working toward something that has similar or better performance, but uses far less energy, and is closer to the abilities of animals.
    “So there’s no reason why we shouldn’t be able to build robots with good movement ability,” Hurst said. “Clearly this might be useful in highly dangerous situations. But I could also see great improvements possible with prosthetic limbs that work much better than present technology. ”
    72. 小题1:The robots being studied by researchers at OSU ______.
    A．are successful now
    B．use little energy
    C．do better than before
    D．can run faster than humans
    73. 小题2:Which of the following have researchers been studying all the time?
    A．The robots’ movement
    B．The robots’ weight
    C．The robots’ sizes
    D．The robots’ walking speed
    74. 小题3:The underlined words “two abilities” in Para.4 refer to ______.
    A．walking and running
    B．walking and holding
    C．moving and using little energy
    D．moving and balancing
    75. 小题4:According to Jonathan Hurst, we know that robots with good movement ability ______.
    A．can be used in medical science
    B．are only used in highly dangerous situations
    C．will hardly be created in the future
    D．will have a bad influence on man

    The Official Theme for the 2005 World Exposition , Aichi，Japan is “Nature’s Wisdom”.
    Name: The 2005 World Exposition, Aichi, Japan
    Theme: “Nature’s Wisdom”
    Site: Steo City, Nagakute Town, Toyata City, in Aichi Prefecture, Japan
    Period: March 25 to September 25, 2005
    Projected number of visitors: 15 million
    Nature has provided humanity with a means to develop into complex societies based on this very basic relationship.
    A vast network of knowledge and wisdom has evolved from this basic relationship between humans and nature. Nature's wisdom，her mysteries, inspiring beauty and power，have been unlocked by minds and scientific processes. Humans have become masters of this knowledge and have developed incredible technologies to employ energy and other resources.
    In an increasingly overcrowded world, it is sometimes hard to focus beyond everyday life and onto the long term effects of our technological progress. Surely then，we must be reminded of the true wisdom found in a continuous relationship with nature. After all，we are in a world seeing an increasing amount of media coverage of international debates concerned about damage to the environment. It is commonly accepted that as far as the environment is concerned，it is a time to re-think our relationship with nature before it is too late.
    Model Community
    Continuous development is what the Eco-communities project at Expo 2005 is all about. The Eco-communities project has been expected to reuse energy and to reduce and make use of existing waste. As well, the entire Expo 2005 site--expected to host 25 million people over a six-month period--has been designed with the conservation(保持)of nature and the local environment as the top priority(优先考虑的事).
    Finding answers for today' s world must be done in the background of technology. Thus，the idea of eco-communities was developed. Yet, an understanding of the socio-historical background is just as important in today’s richly multi-cultural world of economically various states and unions. And so the "Art of Life" Expo 2005 sub-theme was expected to be a model of human participation on a global scale. Expo 2005 offers to the people of the world an opportunity to come together and discuss many global issues that face humankind. It is a place to bring together the world's talent to create a model community for the future where humans can live in harmony with nature.
    64.What is the period of Expo 2005 Japan?
    A.May 1-October 31.            B.March 25-September 25.
    C.May 1-October 30.          D.October 9-0ctober 21.
    65. Which of the following themes is Expo 2005 Japan's?
    A.Better City，Better Life
    B.Interactions between Urban and Rural Areas
    C.Nature’s Wisdom
    D.Environment, Resource and Technique
    66.According to paragraph 3, nature has many features except ______.
    A. danger      B. power     C. beauty       D. wisdom
    67. We can infer that______according the contents of the passage.
    A.the relationship between nature and humans isn’t close
    B.it is easier for us to find the true wisdom
    C.it is important and necessary for human to protect environment
    and nature
    D.harmonious community and Art of life can’t realize
