I started winning competitions. We still had very little money -- my father had to borrow $5,000 to pay for a trip to the International Young Pianists Competition in Ettlingen, Germany, in 1994, when I was 12. I realized later how much pressure he was under. Tears streamed down his face when it was announced that I'd won -- earning enough money to pay back our loan.
It was soon clear I couldn't stay in China forever. To become a world-class musician, I had to play on the world's big stages. So in 1997, my father and I moved again, this time to Philadelphia, so I could attend The Curtis Institute of Music. Finally our money worries were easing. The school paid for an apartment and even lent me a Steinway（斯坦威钢琴）.At night, I would sneak into the living room just to touch the keys.
Now that I was in America, I spent two years practicing, and by 1999 I had worked hard enough for fortune to take over. The Chicago Symphony orchestra heard me play and liked me, but orchestra schedules were set far in advance. I thought I might join them in a few years.
The next morning, I got a call. The great pianist Andre Watts, who was to play the "Gala Benefit Evening" at Chicago's Ravinia Festival, had become ill. I was asked to replace him. That performance was, for me, the moment. After violinist Isaac Stern introduced me, I played Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1. My father's mouth hung open throughout the entire song.
I played until 3:30 a.m. I felt something happening. Sure enough, it was a great success. Still, my father kept telling me, "You'd better practice!" But living in America with me was beginning to relax him. In Beijing I'd been fat -- he made sure I ate -- and he'd been skinny. Now I was getting thin. He wasn't.
My father and I had often practiced a piece called "Horses," a fun version for piano and erhu. One night in Carnegie Hall, after I played Chopin and Liszt, I brought Dad out on the stage, and we played our duet（二重奏）. People went crazy -- they loved it. My father couldn't sleep for days. He was too happy to sleep.
There have been lots of concerts in Carnegie Hall, but for me playing there was especially sweet when I remember the cold days in Beijing. Together, my father and I worked to reach the lucky place where fortune spots you, and lets you shine.
In the first paragraph his father cried when it was announced that he'd won mainly because__________.
A.his father was excited that his son succeeded at last.
B.his father was under too much pressure.
C.they could pay back the loan with the prize.
D.his father was proud of him.

A Chinese rocket carrying a probe（探测器）destined（预定） for the moon has been sent into space.
A Long March 3C rocket with the Chang’e -2 probe took off from Xichang launch centre at about 11: 00 GMT.
The rocket will shoot the craft into the trans-lunar orbit（绕月轨道）, after which the satellite is expected to reach the moon in about five days. Chang’e -2 will be used to test key technologies and collect data for future landings. China says it will send a rover（漫游者） on its next mission, and it also has ambitions to put humans on the surface of the lunar body at some future date. The Xinhua News Agency said Chang’e -2 would circle just 15 km (nine miles) above the rocky terrain（地带）in order to take photographs of possible landing locations.
It is China’s second lunar probe—the first was launched in 2007. The craft stayed in space for 16 months before being intentionally crashed onto the moon’s surface. China launched its first manned flight into low-earth orbit in 2003; and two more followed, with the most recent one in 2008. So far, only three countries have managed to independently send humans into space: China, Russia and the US.
In 2008, a Chinese astronaut, fighter pilot Zhai Zhigang, performed a spacewalk—the first in China’s history. He stayed outside the Shenzhou-7 capsule for 15 minutes; the exercise was seen as the key to China’s ambition to build an orbiting station in the near future.
71. What’s Chang’e -2’s main task according to this passage?
A. Landing on the moon just as the first lunar probe.
B. Comparing with the first lunar probe.
C. Competing with Russia’s and the US’s space crafts.
D. Testing technologies and collecting data for future landings.
72. Which of the following about Chang’e -2 is TRUE?
A. Its travel to the moon lasts about five days.
B. It will put humans on the surface of the moon.
C. It travels with Long March 3C rocket all the way.
D. It will take photographs of the moon on the trans-lunar orbit.
73. China’s first lunar probe_______ .
A. was launched in 2008
B. landed on the moon safely at last
C. took Chinese astronaut Zhai Zhigang to the moon in 2007
D. accomplished its task in less than one and a half years in space
74. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. China Launches Moon Mission
B. Chang’e -2 Is More Advanced than Shenzhou-7
C. China’s Space Program Makes Great Progress
D. China Equals Russia and the US in Space Technologies
75. The underlined word“craft” in the third paragraph refers to_______.
A. Chang’e -1 probe
B. Chang’e -2 probe
C. a rover
D. the Shenzhou-7 capsule

Electronic waste, or e-waste, refers to electronic products that are no longer usable. This can include TVs, cell phones and computers and other office electronics, electronic toys and videos machines. Today, the average turnover（更换）rate for a computer in the United States is every two years, according to the environmental group, Greenpeace.
The group's Dai Yun says e-waste is a global problem. "The electronic industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. The high speed of growth in this industry means more and more electronic products are being wasted and thrown away. If no one decides to retrieve the old products and process them properly, the electronic waste will sweep over the earth like the huge wave behind me and pollute the Earth seriously."
Greenpeace works out that 20 to 50 million tons of e-waste are produced globally each year. The components（部件）in many electronic products contain harmful chemicals that pollute ground water and the environment.
At present , the U.S. has no federal law for the disposal (处理) of e-waste although a few states have e-waste recycling programs in place, but there is no law. The U.S. exports much of its e-waste to third world countries, such as India and China, where workers took apart computers for valuable parts, hoping to sell them for money. But harmful wastes expert, Dr. Bakul Rao, says that's a dangerous practice. "From now on, the recyclers are not very educated. All they know is they can retrieve copper or gold out of it. So, the easiest way to do that is leach (过滤) it out in an acid or burn it off to retrieve it. So, that's where they don't know how to deal with it, neither do they have any health systems in place. So, their exposure is more."
1.What does the underlined word "retrieve" (paragraph 2) probably mean?
|
A．look into |
B．take apart |
C．get back |
D．throw away |
2.What of the following statements is true according to the passage？
|
A．The U.S. has strict national laws for dealing with e-waste. |
|
B．Third world countries import e-waste to get valuable parts, which is a safe and easy way to make money. |
|
C．The way uneducated workers deal with old computers does great harm to the environment as well as to their own health. |
|
D．More and more electronic waste is being wasted and thrown away mainly because of people's bad habits. |
3. What is the purpose of writing the passage?
|
A．To attract more people's attention to e-waste. |
|
B．To call on people not to throw away e-waste anywhere. |
|
C．To tell people what e-waste is and how to deal with it well. |
|
D．To warn people to break away from the electronic industry. |
4.The next paragraph probably concerns ___.
|
A．how to deal with e-waste properly |
|
B．how to protect ourselves from harm by e-waste |
|
C．How to slow down the development in the electronic industry |
