    In a very real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read. To have read Gulliver’s Travels is to have had the experience of listening to Jonathan Swift, of learning about man’s cruelty to man. To read Huckleberry Finn is to feel what it is like to drift (漂流) down the Mississippi River on a raft . To have read Byron is to have suffered his rebellions with him and to have enjoyed his nose—thumbing at (对……的蔑视) society. To have read Native Son is to know how it feels to be frustrated in the particular way in which Blacks in Chicago are frustrated. This is effective communication. It enables us to feel how others felt about life, even if they lived thousands of miles away and centuries age. It is not true that “We have only one life to live.” If we read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.

    A．reading stimulates（激发）a desire to travelB．reading broadens a person’s experience
    C．people who read much live longerD．people who read are more relaxed
    小题2:The author implies that good literature ______.
    A．must deal with social problemsB．must teach a lesson
    C．is varied in subject and in contentD．is always exciting and heart--warming
    小题3: According to the author, reading good literature ______.
    A．produces new incomeB．is quite useless
    C．satisfies the curiousD．opens new worlds to us

    Driving a Car is not just handing controls and judging speed and distance, it requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant(抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination（协调）,slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected.
    Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.
    The present traffic ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is:
    ●50 milligrams of alcohol per l00ml of blood; or
    ●22 milligrams of alcohol per l00ml of breath; or
    ●67 milligrams of alcohol per l00ml of urine(尿液)
    Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.
    Any drive found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK﹩25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.
    The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) far breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.
    Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible, driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.
    小题1:The first paragraph is mainly about_____________.
    A．the introductions of driving skillsB．the damage of drinking to your body
    C．the effect of drinking on drivingD．the process of alcohol being absorbed
    小题2:The underlined word ”it” in the second paragraph refers to “____”．
    A．alcoholB．absorptionC．bloodD．process
    小题3: which of me following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.
    B．Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice.
    C．Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.
    D．50milligrams of alcohol per l00ml of breath is below the drink driving limit.
    小题4: A driver suspected of drink driving ____.
    A．should provide specimens for testing
    B．will be forbidden to drive for 3 years
    C．will be punished for 10 driving-offence points
    D．should pay a maximum fine of HK$25,000

    Have you ever been to the beautiful country of Holland and its capital Amsterdam? Anyone who has traveled to Amsterdam would probably agree on one thing: Amsterdam’s story is a tale of two cities -- one during the day and a completely different one at night．
    During the day, the largest city in the Netherlands sits quietly on the Amstel River．You can rent a bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi．But when the sun goes down, the partying begins．In the big clubs and in coffee shops, tourists gather to hang out, talk politics and smoke．
    Several areas of the city clearly show the two worlds that rule Amsterdam．And they’re all within a short cab ride of each other．For example, Dam Square attracts daytime sightseers to its festivals, open markets, concerts and other events．Several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there．And there’s the Royal Palace and the Magna Plaza shopping mall．
    But at night party-seekers come to the square．Hip hop or funk music is heard there．．So if you come, be ready to dance．The clubs don’t shut down until 4 am．
    And while you’re there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city．Don’t worry about getting lost．Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are happy to help you with directions．And you’ll notice that half the people in the streets are on bicycles they rent．
    Amsterdam also has a well-planned canal system．For about 10 dollars, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise（巡游） the "Venice of the North"．
    The city has a historic past．One impressive place to visit is the Anne Frank House on Nine Streets．It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II．Visitors can view Anne’s original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her family hid from the Nazis for two years．
    小题1:What means of transport is not available to visitors in Amsterdam?
    A．A carriage．B．A bicycle．C．A canal bus． D．A water taxi．
    小题2:When getting lost, a visitor can ask natives for directions in  ___________    ．
    A．only DutchB．Dutch or English
    C．only EnglishD．Spanish and English
    小题3:What can you learn about by visiting the Anne Frank House?
    A．The experience of a beautiful girl survivor．
    B．The glorious past of Amsterdam．
    C．The life of Jewish during World War Ⅱ．
    D．The suffering of the Dutch in wars．
    小题4:The passage is intended to  ____________        ．
    A．call up people’s memories of World War Ⅱ
    B．tell readers what A Tale of Two Cities is about
    C．instruct visitors what to do and see in Holland
    D．offer readers some information about Amsterdam

    When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness？?

    Of the 7,000 languages spoken in the world today, linguists (语言学家) say, nearly half are likely to disappear this century. In fact, one falls out of use about every two weeks.
    Some languages die out in an instant, at the death of the only surviving speaker. Others are lost gradually in bilingual (双语的) cultures, as local tongues are edged out by the dominant (占主导地位的) language at school, in the marketplace and on television.
    New research, supported by the National Geographic Society and the Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages, has found the five regions where languages are disappearing most rapidly. They are northern Australia, central South America, North America's upper Pacific coastal zone, eastern Siberia, and Oklahoma and the southwestern United States.
    K. David Harrison, an associate professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College, US, said that more than half the languages had no written form and were vulnerable to loss and being forgotten." Their loss leaves no dictionary, no text, or no record of the accumulated knowledge and history of a disappeared culture.
    Harrison and other researchers started their rescue project last year. They have been trying to identify and record endangered languages. They interviewed and made recordings of the few remaining speakers of a language and collected basic word lists. The individual projects, some lasting three to four years, involve hundreds of hours of recording speech, developing grammar and preparing children's readers in the obscure (逐渐没落的) language. The research has concentrated on preserving entire language families.
    "These are probably languages that cannot be brought back, but at least we made records of them," said Gregory Anderson, director of the Living Tongues Institute, in Oregon, US.
    小题1:What does the passage mainly tell us?          
    A．Many languages are quickly disappearing.
    B．Some languages are disappearing because they are hard to remember.
    C．Chinese is one of the languages that are disappearing.
    D．Thanks to some researchers, many endangered languages have been rescued.
    小题2:What does the word vulnerable in the fourth paragraph mean?  
    A．easy to remember.B．easy to forget.
    C．likely to be damaged.D．likely to be protected.
    小题3:Which of the following is true according to the fifth paragraph?  
    A．Harrison and other researchers are trying to find out why some languages died out.
    B．Harrison and other researchers tried to start a rescue project.
    C．Harrison and other researchers have concentrated on preserving all the languages.
    D．Harrison and other researchers have done some rescue work on the obscure languages.
    小题4:One of the things that Harrison and other researchers did was         .   
    A．to have more people speak the disappearing language
    B．to make records of the disappearing language
    C．to limit dominant languages
    D．to publish a dictionary of the disappearing language
    小题5:What do you think is the suggested reason for some languages disappearing?     
    A．Local tongues are gradually edged out by the dominant language at school, in the marketplace and on television.
    B．The number of people who speak the languages are small.
    C．There are no dictionaries for the languages.
    D．No one make records of the languages, so they gradually disappear.

    Located in Florence, Oregon is “Sea Lion Caves”, the only known western, coastal, mainland habitat of Stellar Sea Lions. It is also the world’s largest sea cave in existence today and a perfect place to get up close and personal with nature. The sea caves are said to be the home of an estimated 200 sea lions and that at any given time visitors can expect to see at least 150 sea lions going about their daily business.
    The most immense(巨大的) of all sea lions, the Stellar males are known to grow up to 12 feet in length and weight an incredulous 1,500 pounds. The females, on the other hand, tend to be a bit smaller and average 9 feet in length with an average weight of 700 pounds.
    They tend to breed and give birth during the spring and summer months. The breeding and birthing process takes place on the steep cliff ledges that surround the sea cave. Therefore the best time to view this ritual is during those select months from the outside viewing platform.
    In addition to the sea lions, visitors can expect to catch a glimpse of the rare Pigeon Guillemont. These unusual sea birds tend to nest in seaweed along the cliff ledges in early April. And ever the graceful Gray Whales are expected to be seen. Each year, travelling in pods, these sea creatures migrate around “ Cape Blance” on their way to and from their native Alaska waters.

    It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.
    Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog’s legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
    This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.
    The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.
    The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (杀虫剂）and medicines. Soon there was no money left.
    Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job — eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.
    Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.
    小题1:.
    . From Paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers      .
    A．worked very hard for centuriesB．dreamed of having a better life
    C．were poor but somewhat contentD．lived a different life from their forefathers
    小题2:.
    Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?
    A．The frogs were easy money.B．They needed money to buy medicine.
    C．They wanted to please the visitors.D．The frogs made too much noise.
    小题3:.
    . What might be the cause of the children’s sickness?
    A．The crops didn’t do well.B．There were too many insects.
    C．The visitors brought in diseases.D．The pesticides were overused.
    小题4:.
    What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?
    A．Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.
    B．Health is more important than money.
    C．The harmony between man and nature is important.
    D．Good old days will never be forgotten.

    “Before you fall in love, you'd better get a job”
    As told by Lee Joon-ho, 20, a senior in law at Seoul National University
    Korean TV dramas have shown a lot of rebellious(反叛的) youth, but in fact most students still live a traditional life.
    Confucianism has a great influence on us. For instance, Confucius said that we should be dutiful to our parents and value the family. Thus we prefer a school that's close to home so we can go back every day.
    Also as a result of Confucianism, teachers enjoy a high status in Korea. The other day, my professor was flying to Vienna on a business trip. Instead of waiting for hours in the queue, he was told to check in first and didn't have any problem with overweight luggage.
    When it comes to important decision-making, such as choosing a university, a job, and a wife, we listen to our parents' suggestions. Most parents seem liberal in study decisions, but they take a firmer attitude towards their children's love and marriage choices. Often, a man has to have his own business or a solid career before he's allowed to pursue romance.
    Male chauvinism is popular among our parents' generation, since they had to support the whole family through hard work. We need to shoulder the same responsibility, but we've also learned to respect women, as they're doing outstanding work in lots of areas. But to be honest, my friends and I still prefer a traditional woman as a girlfriend and future wife. We want her to be elegant and thoughtful in taking care of a family.
    Our sense of tradition is also reflected in our buying habits. In my house, you see only Korean appliances. Although European cell phones are available in ROK, we favor LG and Samsung, which are suited more to our tastes and widely promoted in TV dramas and films.
    小题1:The professor was told to check in first because _________.   
    A．His luggage was overweight.
    B．He had waited for hours.
    C．People respect teachers in Korea.
    D．He was on a business trip.
    小题2:Which of the statements is true according to the passage?       
    A．Generally speaking, men need to support the whole family in Korea.
    B．Korean women have no freedom in choosing husbands.
    C．Male chauvinism is popular among young people now.
    D．Young people are out of control of their parents.
    小题3:From the last paragraph we can learn that _________.           
    A．You can not find European cell phones in Korea.
    B．You can see advertisements for LG and Samsung in Korean TV dramas and films.
    C．Korean cell phones are traditional.
    D．The Korean people have a sense of tradition.
    小题4:What is the passage mainly about?              
    A．Korean youth are rebellious.
    B．Korean youth will not love anyone until they find a job.
    C．Most Korea students live a traditional life.
    D．Confucius has a great influence on the Korean people.

    For those of you who were born in the year of the pig, good luck and much success! This is your year.
    When talking to a Westerner, however, you’ve got to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. Chinese people view the pig as a smart and prosperous (rich, lucky) animal. Western ideas tend to be a little more negative（否定的）.
    A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn’t be smiling. When a person doesn’t like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.

However, don’t take any chances. You might just offend (触怒)someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.
