5．A thief in the Asbury Park area of New Jersey ended up leaping out of a window after a 9-year-old girl asked him to prove he was Spiderman．
The thief who pretended he was Spiderman to stop a child raising the alarm was heavily drunken and has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced．
Thief Ethan Adamson，25，told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session，believing it was empty．
But he was horrified when the owner's 9-year-old daughter woke up while he was there．
From his hospital bed，the thief told reporters，"To keep her quiet，I told her I was really a superhero and I'd soon be flying off back to my secret headquarters．"
"She called my bluff （向…摊牌） and told me，‘If you're Superman，show me you can fly or I'll scream'．
"I had no choice so I stripped to my pants to look more like a superhero and went to the window．I saw another roof below and I thought I could make it but it turned out to be a lot further down than thought．I know it doesn't make sense but it did to me when I was drunk．"
Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants，covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain．
He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary．
Police spokesman Frank Armado said，"He was in quite a serious state and couldn't move until we got up there using ladders．He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes，before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested．"

6．Throughout history soldiers have fought bloody battles in order to control the high ground．There is no doubt that this is a tactical （战术的）necessity．Standing above your enemy is an advantage that often leads to victory．
Nowadays，high ground does not just mean hill-tops．It also means space，which has become an increasingly important part of military strategy （军事战略）．
With its more advanced satellite technologies，America is the major power in space．And now the US Air Force has put into service a new weapon designed to jam enemy satellite communications．It is an important step toward US control of space．
The so-called Counter Communications System （反卫星通信系统）was declared operational on November 1．The ground-based system uses electromagnetic radio frequencies （无线电磁波）to stop enemy satellites working on a short-term basis．
"A short-term effect ensures that during the time of need，the enemy's space-based capability （能力）is reduced，"said a US military official．"Following the time of need，their capabilities can return to its original state．"
The system is made up of an antenna （天线），transmitters （发射机）and receivers and can be easily transported around in a vehicle．
To control space was one of four aims of a national space policy started by former president bill Clinton in 1996．The goal is to make sure US forces can rely on space-based services and to deny an enemy any similar benefits．
The US military has experimented with several"anti-satellite"weapons，including lasers，to destroy or damage enemy units．
Theresa Hitchens，vice president of the Centre for Defence Information in Washington，welcomed the new system as long as it does not create rubbish that could threaten global use of space．She believed it should not destroy satellites，only stop them working for a while．
Unfortunately，it seems we are not going to limit our goal for‘space control'to non-violent systems，"she said，raising the danger of a space arms race．
To change the balance of power in space the EU and China are working together on the Galileo project．By 2010the system will be in place as an alternative to the Americans'global positioning service．

71．What's the significance（意义）of the Counter Communications System to the US？B
A．It can help avoid bloody battles．
B．It can bring the US closer to its goal for"space control"．
C．It can ensure the US forces to depend on space-based services．
D．It can destroy enemy equipment．
72．How does the new system work？It affects the enemy byD．
A．being transported around easily in a vehicle
B．controlling the high ground
C．damaging them
D．blocking their satellite communications
73．One thing that seemed to worry Theresa Hitchens is that the new weaponD．
A．could increase the danger of a space arms race
B．is not effective enough
C．is not threatening enough
D．might produce dangerous waste
74．What can we infer from the passage？A
A．New space weapons may be on the way．
B．The US military have never stopped experimenting with anti-satellite weapons．
C．The Galileo Project，when in effect，can match the Counter Communications System in power．
D．In future wars，space battles will decide human's fate （命运）．
75．The word"short-term"in Paragraph 4means closest toC．
A．reducing capability
B．effective for a special period of time
C．not lasting long
D．the time of need．

3．FROM 1964to 1978，Dazhai，with a population of 500，was the most famous village in China．Millions of Chinese came to the Shanxi village to visit its terraced fields （梯田） and"splendid"irrigation systems．
It was not until 1978when Guo Fenglian，head of the village，paid a visit to the US that China's model village found how far it had fallen behind those in developed countries．
"I was astonished at their modern equipment in harvesting，which could even separate big tomatoes with small ones，"said Guo．"American farmers'life quality also impressed me a lot．Every day they had two cups of milk，which is something we don't have even in our wildest dreams．"
"We have to learn their advanced technology and administration for our own development，"said then first Deputy Prime Minister Deng Xiaoping who was planning China's reform and opening up policy then．"Through opening our doors，we would not only take advantage of foreign funds （资金），but also create job opportunities and cultivate （培养） talents．"
In 1978Japanese electricity giant Panasonic （松下） came to China as the first foreign business to invest （投资） here and its success attracted other world brands into exploring the Chinese market．So far China has for 15years taken in the world's second biggest foreign investment，following the US，to help set the country in a fast growth．
However，China's 30-year road of reform was not always smooth．Doubts on the reform began to rise at the end of the 1980s as many people worried the country would turn to capitalism （资本主义）．
"The criterion for our judgment is whether it helps develop socialist productive forces，whether it helps increase the overall national strength of a socialist country，and whether it brings about better living standards，"said Deng．
"China's reform and opening up is a unique success story．It has brought benefit to both China and the world，"said William Keller，chief manager of a Swiss pharmaceutical （制药的） company．

71．Dazhai was not famous forC．
A．the wonderful irrigation systems         B．its terraced fields

A．shocked        B．delighted
C．excited         D．attracted
73．B was the first big country to invest in China．
A．America      B．Japan

A．in 1978       B．in 1980
C．in 1981        D．at the end of the 1980s
75．According to remarks by Deng，which one is NOT the criterion for judging the success or failure of our work in various fields？C
A．whether it helps develop socialist productive forces．
B．whether it strengthens the overall capacity of the country．
C．whether it brings about better investment and more profit．
D．whether it improves the peoples living standards．

10．Almost a decade ago，the federal government dropped﹩10million for an Earth-monitoring satellite that never made it into space．Today it sits in a closet in Maryland．Cost to taxpayers for storing it：﹩1million a year．And that's just what's hiding in one closet．Who knows what's in the rest of them？
Because we think the government should be held to at least the same standards as a publicly traded company，and because as taxpayers，we're America's shareholders，we performed an audit （财务检查）of sorts of the federal books．We're not economists，but we do have common sense．We tried to be apolitical （无关政治的）and got help from Congressional staffers from both parties，as well as various watchdog groups and agencies．In the end，we found that the federal government wastes nearly﹩1trillion every year．
That's roughly equal to the amount collected annually by the Internal Revenue Service in personal income taxes．Put another way，it's also equal to about one-third of the country's﹩2.9trillion total annual budget．And reclaiming that lost trillion（三十亿）could help wipe out the country's annual budget deficit（赤字），improve education，and provide health insurance for those who don't have it．
So how do you define"waste"？David Walker of the Government Accountability Office （GAO），a federal watchdog agency，calls it"the government's failure to give taxpayers the most for their money．"For our part，we used the kind of household test you would use on a piece of meat sitting in your refrigerator：If it smells rotten，it's waste．And there is plenty to sniff out．Our government regularly pays for products and services it never gets，wildly overpays companies to do things it could do more cheaply itself，loses money outright due to lax（松驰的）accounting and oversight，fails to collect what it's owed，and antes up for unnecessary programs．
How exactly does the federal government fritter away your hard-earned tax dollars？We've identified what we consider ten of the worst ways．

61．The underlined sentence in Paragraph1really meansD．
A．there are many other closets
B．there are some other satellites
C．there is something else in the closets
D．the waste may be quite amazing
62．Which of the following statements may be right？B
A．The country's annual budget is usually decided by the public．
B．The government failed in launching the satellite．
C．The government is only wasting money in space experiments．
D．The amount collected annually in personal income taxes is equal to the country's budget．
63．Which of the following can best describe the feeling of the author？A
A．Annoyed． B．Calm．
C．Surprised． D．Not concerned．
64．The best title for the passage would beC．
A．Protecting Our Rights!
B．Our Country Is In Danger!
C．The Government Is Wasting Our Tax Dollars!
D．How to Prevent Government from Wasting Money!
65．What might be talked about if the passage is continued？A
A．Listing how the government is wasting taxes．
B．Presenting people's feelings against the government's wasting taxes．
C．Giving suggestion to help the government solve the financial problem．
D．The government's taking some steps to stop wasting taxes．

1．（37）A
People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease （早老性痴呆症），according to a recent study．（38）ESomething as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do．There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better．In other words，keep your brain looking forward．
