6．Recently，researchers has announced a breakthrough in the exploration of new energy-development of the first practical artificial leaf，an advanced solar cell that imitates the process，called photosynthesis（光合作用），that green plants use to make sunlight and water into energy．
"A practical artificial leaf has been a dream of scientists for decades，"said Daniel Nocera，who led the research team．"We believe we have made it．The artificial leaf shows particular promise as an inexpensive source of electricity for homes of the poor in developing countries．One can imagine villages in India and Africa soon purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology．"
The leaf is like the shape of a poker card but thinner．Placed in water in a bright sunlight，it could produce enough electricity to supply a house in a developing country with electricity for a day by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen，which are stored in a fuel cell to produce electricity．
The"artificial leaf"is not a new concept．The first artificial leaf was developed more than a decade ago by John Turner．However，it was impractical for wider use，as it was composed of rare，expensive metals and was highly unstable with a lifespan of barely one day．
Nocera's new leaf overcomes these problems．It is made of inexpensive materials that are widely available，works under simple conditions and is highly stable．Laboratory studies showed that it could operate continuously for at least 45hours without a drop in activity．
The key to this breakthrough is Nocera's recent discovery of several new powerful，inexpensive catalysts，which are able to accelerate the chemical reaction under simple conditions．Right now，Nocera's leaf is about 10times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural leaf．Yet he is optimistic that he can boost the efficiency of the device much higher in the future．

24．Daniel Nocera describes his artificial leaf as promising inC．
A．making an artificial plant that can feed itself．
B．finding a new kind of catalyst to produce electricity．
C．providing electricity for the poor family at a low cost
D．changing the sunlight and water into electricity directly
25．According to the passage，The underlined word"accelerate"in the last paragraph probably meansB．
A．reduce the loss of energy
B．speed up the process
C．work as a media to store collected energy
D．control the operation of chemical reactions
26．We can learn from the passageB．
A．There was nobody who had an idea of the artificial leaf before．
B．Nocera's artificial leaf has advantages over Turner's in some ways．
C．The first artificial leaf was once widely put into use in many countries．
D．The new artificial leaf works well but can just keep operating only one day．
27．The passage is most probably fromA．
A．a science news report               B．a science fiction story
C．a fairy tale book                   D．an advertisement for solar products．

11．Making group purchases of famous local products and cosmetics （化妆品） with co-workers has become a common habit for the nine-to-fivers．But if your impression of group buys is still a piece of paper being passed around the office，everyone writes their details down，or endless phone calls or faxes to the supplier，then I'm sorry to say you're behind the times．The popular way to make such purchases today is to get on line，form a special"group"and shop together．Not only can you save money by getting the best discounts，but it's also a great way to meet new people．
"You could cut off my clicking finger and I'd still keep shopping this way!"so goes a common comment left by customers of China's famous e-commerce website"Taobao"．Some even refer to group purchasing as a"path of no return"，saying that"Once you've tried it，you'll get hooked!"
The origins of this new trend can be found in China's well-known online consumers'BBS，55BBS，and the shopping boards．Since most BBS users are"white-collared workers and students who live in concentrated areas，buying clothes，food，and so on as a group saves on delivery costs as well as-if they meet the seller's criteria （标准）-earn gifts，discounts，and frequent shopper points．
Users of this online group shopping boards purchase a lot of different items，from Japanese and Korean style clothes and Ugg boots，through fake eyelashes （假睫毛），stockings，food seasonings （调味品），and kitchen knives，to cosmetic masks and online college courses．All kinds of things have people coming together in groups to buy them，and the pickups are often organized on college campuses or office buildings．
Internet observer Liu Chenxi points the purchasing behavior that these online groups'power creates a"team"effect．Unlike e-commerce sites driven by individuals'purchases，sites that create this team effect have users that come together to achieve a common goal．The Internet has made this joining of forces to form group buying power possible，and it continues to snowball all around us．

68．The passage mainly deals withB．
A．group purchases with co-workers

D．buying famous local products and cosmetics

1．SOME teenagers take up smoking during the holidays either because they become"rich"enough to afford a pack of cigarettes or they think they look"cool"．Everyone knows that"smoking is bad for you"，but do smokers really know what the health warnings mean to them？
Smoking，the world's second leading cause of preventable death，kills 4.9million people a year，the United Nations said on February 27．The world has about l.2billion smokers and World Health Organization surveys show that about 20per cent of them are children aged between 13and 15years old．
On the same day，a global treaty（公约） aimed at encouraging children not to smoke and help people kick the habit came into force．This is the first worldwide agreement on a public health issue．It will see strong warnings added to cigarette packets and a ban on all tobacco advertising．
Young smokers may think little of the health effects of smoking．But smoking can stop them from making friends，as most non-smokers don't like being around smokers．
"I feel sick when I see people of my age smoke．Smokers make themselves look less educated，"said Shi Qingyu，a Senior 3student at Luanxian No 1High School in Hebei Province．Once while on a bus，he asked a girl who was smoking next to him to put out her cigarette．
For Wang Gezhu，a Senior l  girl from Wuxi Furen High School in Jiangsu Province，boys who smoke are less attractive．
"Boys that smoke may think they are cool or impressive，but I think they look weird（怪异的） compared to other ordinary students in my eyes．They only do what others won't risk doing，"Wang said．
Every one wants to impress others，but there are ways to show off other than smoking．
On February 26，around 200students from across the country gathered in Beijing to be awarded for their outstanding performance in the 2004"Sunflower Cup"．The programme included several contests in writing，calligraphy （书法），drawing and painting．It aimed to encourage students to take part in meaningful activities so that they could spend their free time developing healthy habits and hobbies．
"Teenagers are energetic and quick to learn，both good and bad things．For the sake of their own health，teenagers should learn to say no to their first cigarette because life as a smoker is a life of addiction．You can't quit，"said Wang Zhengqi，deputy  secretary-general （副秘书长） of the Chinese Association on Smoking and Health．

8．You do not need every word to understand the meaning of what you read．In fact，too much focus on individual words both slows your speed and reduces your comprehension．You will be given the chance to prove this to yourself，but meanwhile，let us look at the implications．
First，any habit，which slows down your silent reading to the speed at which you speak，or read aloud，is inefficient （无效的）．If you point to each word as you read，or move your head，or form the word with your lips，you read poorly．Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency．One is"saying"each word silently by moving your tongue or throat or vocal cords（声带），and another is"hearing"each word you read．
These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago．The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words，how written words are pronounced，and how sentences are put together．Your reading purpose is quite different； it is to understand meaning．
It has been assumed that up to 75% of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for passing on the meaning．The secret of silent reading is to seek out those key words and phrases which carry the thought，and to pay less attention to words which exist only for the sake of grammatical completeness．
An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the page loud．Without realizing it himself perhaps，he takes in whole phrase or thought unit at a time．If he"says"or"hears"word to himself，they are selected ones，said for emphasis （重点）．

61．This passage is mainly aboutC．
A．improving eye movementsB．reading more widely
C．removing poor reading habits D．concentrating while reading
62．Saying each word to yourself as you readD．
A．improves comprehension B．increases reading speed
C．prevents returning D．reduces reading efficiency
63．Your reading purpose should beC．
A．to understand all wordsB．to make fewer eye movements
C．to understand the meaningD．to understand the grammatical structures
64．It has been assumed that up to 75% of words in English sentences areC．
A．grammatically unnecessary
B．important and necessary to the meaning
C．not absolutely necessary to grasp the meaning
D．entirely meaningless
65．Efficient readers usuallyB．
A．move their heads quicklyB．take in whole phrases at a time
C．point at key wordsD．miss some important points for readers．

5．King Juan Carlos of Spain once insisted"kings don't give up the throne（王位），they die in their sleep．"But embarrassing scandals and the popularity of the republican left in the recent Euro-elections have forced him to eat his words and stand down．So does the Spanish crisis suggest that monarchy（君主制） is seeing its last days？Does that mean the writing is on the wall for all European royals，with their magnificent uniforms and majestic lifestyles？
The Spanish case provides arguments both for and against monarchy．When public opinion is particularly polarized，as it was following the end of the Franco regime，monarchs can rise above mere politics and symbolize a spirit of national unity．
It is this apparent transcendence（超越） of politics that explains monarchs continuing popularity as heads of state．And so，the Middle East excepted，Europe is the most monarch-filled region in the world，with 10kingdoms （not counting Vatican City and Andorra）．Most royal families have survived because they allow voters to avoid the difficult search for a non-controversial but respected public figure．
Even so，kings and queens undoubtedly have a downside．Symbolic of national unity as they claim to be，their very history and sometimes the way they behave today symbolizes outdated and indefensible privileges and inequalities．At a time when Thomas Piketty and other economists are warning of rising inequality and the increasing power of inherited wealth，it is strange that wealthy noble families should still be the symbolic heart of modern democratic（民主的）states．
The most successful monarchies try their best to abandon or hide their old noble ways．Princes and princesses have day-jobs and ride bicycles，not horses （or helicopters）．Even so，these are wealthy families who party with the international 1%，and media interference makes it increasingly difficult to maintain the right image．
32．According to the first two paragraphs，King Juan Carlos of SpainD
A．used to enjoy high public support
B．was unpopular among European royals
C．eased his relationship with his rivals
D．gave up his throne in embarrassment
33．Monarchs are kept as heads of state in Europe mostlyA
A．owing to their undoubted and respectable status
B．to achieve a balance between tradition and reality
C．to give voters more public figures to look up to
D．due to their everlasting political symbolizing
34．Which of the following is shown to be strange，according to Paragraph 4？B
A．The noble families'excessive dependence on inherited wealth
B．The role of the nobility in modern democracies
C．The simple lifestyle of the noble families
D．The nobility's sticking to their privileges
35．Which of the following is the best title of the text？C
A．Carlos，a good example of All European Monarchs
B．Europe，the most monarch-filled region in the world
C．Carlos，a Lesson for All European Monarchs
D．Europe，symbolic heart of modern democracy．
