    An excolleague said."If you wanted a job doing,Hazard would do it badly.He blew up the barracks washing machine by overloading it."

    "He was forever injuring himself when loading shells(炮弹)into the gun turret(炮塔)of the tank. I lost count of the number of times I saw him with bandages and plasters on his fingers."

    "You'd hear him clanging around and there'd be a yelp and he'd squeal,'Oh,my bloody fingers.'He's very lucky to have all his fingers left."

    Parr eared ￡25,000 a year at BAE(bachelor of aeronautical engineering(航空工程学士) Systems.It is thought that he tried to make money from spying because of worries about being dismissed at the firm.

           Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert system using text messages delivered to cell phones．Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people．The wireless industryls trade association, CTIA, estimates more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month．

           The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvements to the nation's emergency alert system．The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission （FCC） by coming up with new ways to alert the public about emergencies．

           "The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before and during disasters and other emergencies," FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan．

           Participation in the alert system by carriers -telecommunications companies is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry．The program would be optional for cell phone users．They also may not be charged for receiving alerts．

           There would be three different types of messages, according to the rules．The first would be a national alert from the president, likely involving a terrorist attack or a nationwide disease．The second would involve "approaching threats," which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings．The third would be reserved for child kidnapping emergencies．The service could be in place by 2010．

    59．What is the purpose of the approved plan?

           A．To warn people of emergencies through messages．

           B．To popularize the use of cell phones．

           C．To estimate the monthly number of messages．

           D．To promote the wireless industry．

    60．According to the passage, cell phone users ____．

          A．must accept the alert service．       B．may enjoy the alert service for free．

           C．must send the alerts to others  D．may choose the types of messages

    61．An alert message will NOT be sent if____．

           A．a child gets robbed in the street      B．a university shooting happens

           C．a natural disaster happens       D．a terrorist attack occurs

    62．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

           A．Cell Phone Alerts Protecting Students

           B．Cell Phone Alerts by Wireless Industry

           C．Cell Phone Alerts of National Disasters

           D．Cell Phone Alerts Coming Soon

    第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

    第一节（共15题；每小题2分，满分30分）

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A,B,C,和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

    Before he became president, Abraham Lincoln spent twenty years as an unsuccessful Illinois lawyer —at least, in financial fields. Legends (传奇) are often untrue, but Lincoln was the real thing. During his years as a lawyer, there were hundreds of examples of his kindness and honesty.

       For example, Lincoln didn’t like to charge the poor who were as poor as he was. Once an old man gave him twenty-five dollars, but Lincoln sent him back ten, saying he was being too generous. He often persuaded the people who came to his office to settle their issues (问题) out of court, thereby saving them a lot of money and earning nothing himself.

       He and his partner once prevented a mentally ill girl from being cheated off her land. The case took fifteen minutes, and the girl’s brother was completely satisfied. When his partner came to divide up their fee, Lincoln criticized him and said, "The money comes out of the pocket of a poor, mentally ill girl. I would rather starve than cheat her in this manner. You return half the money at least, or I won’t take a cent of it as my share."

       Kindness and honesty make you feel good about yourself and create trust in others. It’s not very fashionable these days to talk about the benefits of kindness and honesty, but the benefits are there and are valuable. He often said, "When I do good, I feel good, and when I do bad, I feel bad. That’s my belief."

    36. From the passage, we can know that Lincoln ____.

       A. charged poor people nothing

    B. was very rich when he was a lawyer

    C. did not like money

    D. helped the poor as much as possible

    37. What do we learn from the third paragraph?

       A. The girl’s problem was very difficult to settle.

    B. He criticized his partner for accepting too much money.

    C. The girl’s brother was very generous.

    D. Lincoln’s partner got at least half the money from the girl’s case.

    38. What can we infer from the passage?

       A. Lincoln got a lot of money from those who came to him.

    B. The legends of famous people are always untrue.

    C. Lincoln believed that kindness and honesty were valuable.

       D. It is popular to talk about the benefits of honesty.

    39. Which is the best title for the passage?

       A. Don’t Believe Legends

    B. Abraham Lincoln’s Belief

    C. The Value of Kindness

    D. The Legend of Lincoln Is True

    A father sat at his desk poring over (细读) his monthly bills when his young son rushed in and  21   , “Dad, because this is your  22   and you’re 55 years old, I’m going to give you 55  23   , one for each year!” When the boy  24   carrying out his word, the father exclaimed (呼喊), “Oh, Andrew, don’t do it now; I’m too  25   !” The youngster immediately fell silent as tears  26   in his big blue eyes.
