Wang Jiaming from Beijing Chenjinglun High School says he is a lucky boy .He’s happy that he’s sitting the senior high school entrance exam in2014 instead of 2016.
On October 22,Beijing Municipal Commission of Education* announced that, from 2016,the English scores in the senior high school entrances exam will be reduced* from 120 to 100.Of the 100 points, the listening ability scores will increase to 50.Meanwhile, the points for Chinese will increase from 120 to 150.
“The change won’t affect me. I fell so lucky because English is my strongest subject,’’ said Wang. Why such a change? It places the importance on Chinese in our study and reduces students’ pressure, said Li Yi, a spokesman of the commission.
“The change will also push us to pay attention to the practical usage of English.,’’ said Li. “Students will be encouraged to learn to understand English menus and read English news on mobile phones.”
There isn’t news that other cities will have the same change. But several places are making changes to English tests in the college entrance exams.
For example, Shandong is considering taking out the listening part of the English exam in its Gaokao. But, “ being tested for less points doesn’t mean the subject can be taken lightly,” Bai Ping wrote in China Daily.
English has long been the world’s most commonly used language. Wang Jiaming said he understood the change.
“Chinese, not English, is our mother tongue*,” he said. “ but still, I think English is both interesting and useful.”

The air pollution was so bad in Harbin, in China, on October 21,2013 that the city had to close roads and schools, and cancel* hundreds of flights from its airport.
News reports said the smog (a mixture of smoke and fog) was so thick that people couldn’t see more than 10 or 20 metres in front of them.
It is also said that people could not even see the person standing next to them. The city’s website said: “You can’t see your own fingers in front of you.”
The local people said there was a “burning” smell in the air. Many people covered their noses and mouths with scarves or masks*.
The pollution was caused on several factors* including: farmers burning off old corn stalks* and crop stubble*; coal*-fired heating systems; and low winds that allowed the smoke to remain over the city.
The smog had been building up for several days. It became worse when the city turned on the public heating system, which uses coal to heat millions of homes and offices in the city.
Harbin has a population of more than 10 million people. It lies in northeastern China, where cold winter weather can last up to six months. The main fuel* there is coal, because it is cheaper than other types of fuel.
Air pollution from burning coal can cause health problems like heart disease. During the smog crisis* in Harbin, the number of people taken to the hospital with breathing problems was 30% higher than usual.
The city government is trying to reduce its use of coal by adding more insulation* and better roofs and windows to buildings to reduce heating needs. It has also used cleaner fuel for cars and factories.
小题1:The roads and schools in Harbin had to be closed on October 21, 2013 because of  ____
A.the heavy rainB.the strong windC.the serious smogD. the terrible snow

Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报)the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere, because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.

At the beginning of this century, medical scientists made an interesting discovery(发现): we are built not just of flesh (肌肉) and blood but also of time. They were able to show that we all have a ‘body clock’       us, which controls the       and fall of our body energies. It can       us different from one day to the next.
The idea of a ‘body clock’ should not be too       because the lives of most living things are controlled by the 24-hour night-and-day cycle (循环). We feel       and fall asleep at night. We become       and energetic during the day. Most people will have a bad feeling if the 24-hour cycle is      . For example, people who are not used to working at night can find that lack (缺少) of sleep causes them to     badly at work.

Oil is so important that it is sometimes called “black gold”. Almost half of our energy comes from oil. We use it to run our cars and factories and to heat our homes, offices and schools. Many everyday things are made from oil. Your shirt may have oil in the material. The soap you wash your hands with might also be made from oil. Your favorite plastic toy is made from oil.     
Oil is hard to find, because it is trapped deep under the earth. Once the only way people knew there was oil someplace if it leaked(渗漏)out of the ground. Today, however, we have many ways of finding oil. One tool measures(测量)the pull of gravity. Places where gravity is weaker are more likely to have oil. Another tool is sound waves(声波). Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. We can use them to find the rocks that have oil in them.     
We need a lot of oil, and we are using up the oil wells we know about. Soon we must find new ways of looking for this “black gold”.
小题1:Which of the following isn’t the way to help find oil?
A.Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds.
B.People measure the pull of gravity to know if there is oil.
C.Sound waves tell us where the oil has leaked out of the ground.
D.People know there is oil if it leaks out of the ground.
小题2:Which of the following does the passage lead you to believe?
A.Oil was firstly found by measuring gravity.
B.Many things are made from oil.
C.We will never run out of oil.
D.Our lives would not be different if we didn’t have oil.
小题3:The main idea of the whole story is that ________________.
A.many things are made from oil
B.we must find new ways of looking for oil
C.people spend a lot of time looking for oil
D.oil is important for us but hard to find

"In that case, be careful and don't worry. You are very clever," the agent said." Take 5,000 dollars more," Mike looked around uneasily but took the money.
Mike was a clerk in a large company. A few years ago he started to get very worried because it was very hard for him to support his family. He wanted to give his child an excellent education and a bright future, but the future looked rather hopeless.
One day some agents called him. They were his company's competitors. At first he refused their offers. But when he thought his dream could come true, he agreed to their offers and began giving them information.

Carmen Arace Middle School is situated in the pastoral town of Bloomfield, Conn., but four years ago it faced many of the same problems as inner-city schools in nearby Hartford: low scores on standardized tests and dropping enrollment(入学注册). Then the school’s hard-driving headmaster, Delores Bolton, persuaded her board to shake up the place by buying a laptop computer for each student and teacher to use, in school and at home. What’s more, the board provided wireless Internet access at school. Total cost: $2.5 million.
Now, an hour before classes start, every seat in the library is taken by students who cannot wait for getting online. Fifth-grade teacher Jen Friday talks about different kinds of birds as students view them at a colorful website. After school, students on buses pull laptops from backpacks to get started on homework. Since the computer arrived, enrollment is up 20%. Scores on state tests are up 35%.
Indeed, school systems in rural Maine and New York City also hope to follow Arace Middle School’s example. Governor Angus King had planned using $50 million to buy a laptop for all of Maine’s 17,000 seventh-graders – and for new seventh-graders each fall.
In the same spirit, the New York City board of education voted on April 12 to create a school Internet portal(入口), which would make money by selling ads and licensing public school students. Profits(盈利)will also provide e-mail service for the city’s 1.1 million public school students. Profits will be used to buy laptops for each of the school system’s 87,000 fourth-graders. Within nine years, all students in grades 4 and higher will have their own computers.
Back in Bloomfield, in the meantime, most of the kinks have been worked out. Some students were using their computers to visit unauthorized(非法的)websites. But teachers have the ability to keep an eye on where students have been on the Web and to stop them. “That is the worst when they disable you,” says eighth-grade honors student Jamie Bassell. The habit is rubbing off on parents. “I taught my mom to use e-mail,” says another eighth-grader, Katherine Hypolite. “And now she’s taking computer classes. I’m so proud of her!”
小题1:The example of Carmen Arace Middle School in the passage is used to ______.
A.show the problems schools are faced with today
B.prove that a school without high enrollment can do well
C.express the importance of computers in modern education
D.tell that laptops can help improve students’ school performance
小题2:According to the writer, students in New York City’s public schools will ______.
A.enjoy e-mail service in the near future
B.make money by selling ads on websites
C.all have their own laptops within nine years
D.become more interested in their studies with laptops
小题3:The underlined word “kinks” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.
A.plansB.projectsC.problemsD.products
小题4:From the passage we learn that ______.
A.a school Internet portal is the key to a laptop program
B.the laptop program also has a good influence on parents
C.students slowly accept the fact their online activities controlled
D.the laptop program in public school is mainly for the eighth-graders

“Yes, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard NASA’s Space Elevator. We’re going to leave soon. The entire ride will take about five hours, so sit back and enjoy the trip. As we rise, be sure to look out the window. You’ll see the sky change from deep blue to black. It is one of the most wonderful views(景色)you will ever see! ”
Does this sound like the Sci-Fi Channel? Well, it’s not. Scientists are thinking that a “space elevator” will be possible toward the end of the 21st century. A space elevator will consist of a long cable (电缆) from the Earth’s surface into space to an altitude(高度) of about 35,786 km. “Elevators” will travel along the cable and move people and loads between Earth and space. One of the greatest advantages is that the cost will be much less. Researchers estimate (估计) that a passenger with baggage at 150 kg might cost only $222! Compare that to today’s cost of around $3.3 million for the same weight. It would make “cheap” space travel possible. Scientists believe carbon nanotubes (纳米管) may be used to make high-strength materials for the cables, although they are still being studied.
It was Arthur C. Clarke who brought this idea to the general public. In his science fiction novel Fountains of Paradise, engineers build a space elevator on top of a mountain peak on an island. One day, Clarke was asked a question by a student during his speech. The student asked when the space elevator would become a reality. Clarke answered, “Probably about 50 years after everybody stops laughing.” He’s got a point. When we stop thinking of something as impossible, then we start working on its development.
小题1:Why should passengers in a space elevator look out the window while they are moving into space?
A.Because the blue sky is very beautiful.
B.Because the view outside is wonderful.
C.Because the sky changes from black to blue.
D.Because the trip will take about seven hours.
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Scientists haven’t used carbon nanotubes to make the cables.
B.Traveling in space elevators will cost much less in the future.
C.Passengers will be able to travel in space elevators with baggage.
D.Space elevators will travel for 35,786 km around the Earth’s surface.
小题3:What is the best title for this passage?
A.Possible Now: Space TravelB.Cheap Space Travel
C.Going into Space in an ElevatorD.Space Travel — Impossible
