    Stacey Avnes: My Jewish big sister is important to me. Her name is Lauren. We’ve been together for two years. My mom is a single mom and she is very busy.

    We’re all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
    Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly(随意地，随机地) chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Those who received it could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
    Subjects, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
    Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
    The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers figured out that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
    The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That’s because your close friends know each other while your acquaintances tend to know people you don’t know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren’t that close to.
    So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It’s all about who you know.
    小题1:If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?
    A．5 to 7B．18C．13D．384
    小题2:Who does the word “subjects” refer to in the passage?
    A．the 384 participants who lived in Australuia
    B．the Norwegian veterinarians and college porfessors
    C．the 24,000 people randomly assigned by reaearchers
    D．the 18 people randomly chosen from 13 countries
    小题3:What does the phrase “peter out” mean in the fourth paragraph？
    A．die outB．pass awayC．disappearD．pick out
    小题4:Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
    A．Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much.
    B．Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends.
    C．Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together.
    D．Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others.
    小题5: In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
    A．Culture B．EntertainmentC．Information and TechnologyD．Health

    Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was   41  into stillness by what I saw. Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, was   42  with the second-hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn’t   43  fast and then she was out of work.

At that moment, feeling Mother’s   52  with feelings, I understood for the first time her being easy to   53 . She was still my mother,   54   she was something   55  : a person like me, capable of fear,   56  and failure.

    A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station __58 .
    “It’s a job I can do, though.” She said simply. But the evening practice on the green typewriter continued. I had a very   59  feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her   60   away across the paper. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.

    “Everybody loves a bargain.” One person's useless, ugly, or broken object can be another person's bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their houses. They put on a “For Sale” sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.         
    The sellers put a paid announcement(付费通告)in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn. Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight----like tired guests at a party----waiting for someone to take them home.
    Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables and chairs. Then there are objects called “white elephants”. A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.
    Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or painting of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating(谈判) over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard to sell all the things they have bought.
    小题1:What kind of things will go to a yard sale?
    A．Cheap and ugly things.B．Things people no longer use.
    C．Things out of season.D．Things of great value.
    小题2:A white elephant refers to _________.
    A．something that can cause a feeling of pain
    B．something disliked by the owners while appreciated by others
    C．something sold at the lowest prices
    D．a toy shaped like a fish
    小题3:Most people go to yard sales to________.
    A．find valuable paintingsB．look for something special
    C．find a bargainD．kill their time
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale?
    A．It may not be held when the weather is very cold.
    B．It can last for a whole day.
    C．It is usually held with a party.
    D．It is held outdoors.
    小题5:We can infer from the last paragraph that__________.
    A．people may find something of great value on a yard sale
    B．yard sales only attract those who have a low income
    C．things on a yard sale can cost people a lot
    D．most people don’t want to go to yard sales.

    阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Roy wasn't the only one to receive his call-up（入伍）papers．Stephen Napier's call-up came at the beginning of February and he was pleased to find that he would be going into the Royal Air Force (RAF)．
    His father was not so pleased and made his feelings known as he and Stephen were on their daily walk. It was the first step in his plans for Stephen to take over the estate（地产）when the time came, and although Stephen was well aware of this, he could think of no reason not to accompany him.
    "Thought you'd forgotten that nonsense. Still, I dare say I could pull a few strings to get you to the Army..."
    "No, Father! I have told you I want to learn to fly. What chance would I have to do that in the Army? I'd be better off in the Navy——at least they've got the Fleet Air Arm. But I have been put in the RAF and that's where I want to be, so let's leave it at that." His face went red. Sent to his father's school and then to Cambridge, much to his satisfaction, he had never had to defend his own desires and his father was a hard man to oppose.
    The father glared at Stephen, "No, I won't leave it at that. I want to know what other ridiculous ideas are in your head. For a start, what's all this about America?"
    "America?"
    "Yes. All those books I saw in your room the other day. Brochures about emigration（移民）．"
    The big, silvered head lowered, like that of a bull about to charge．"Don't trouble to deny it."
    "I won't, Father. Some men at Cambridge have been talking about it. They want people like us here, mathematicians and scientists, for all kinds of research——the sort of research I could do．It would be a worthwhile life for me."
    The father responded exactly as his son had known he would．"You've got a worthwhile life here！You've got an estate to run！"
    "No, Father. You've got an estate to run. I never asked for it. Why not ask Baden to do this stuff? He perhaps can make a good job of it, but I..."
    "If he were here, I might think about this silly idea of yours——only think about it, mind you but..."
    小题1:If Father wanted Stephen to take over the estate, the first thing he did would__________．
    A．take a walk with Stephen as usual
    B．wait till his son graduated from Cambridge
    C．persuade Stephen not to go into RAF
    D．send Stephen to the Army instead of RAF
    小题2:Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．Stephen preferred to go into the Navy rather than the Army.
    B．Stephen also received his call-up papers as Roy.
    C．The father didn't like Stephen's idea of going to America.
    D．Stephen was eventually forced to stay to run the estate．
    小题3: After reading this passage, we can infer that__________．
    A．Stephen had never had to defend his desires before
    B．Baden might be one of Stephen's family members
    C．Stephen wanted to fly in RAF and become a pilot in America
    D．if somebody took over the estate, Stephen could realize his dream
    小题4:What do we learn from the underlined sentence?
    A．It looked as if the father was angry when mentioning the brochures.
    B．The father was very angry and wanted to beat his son Stephen．
    C．Stephen was annoyed when his father referred to the brochures.
    D．A big red bull was about to charge at Stephen.
    小题5:Which would be the best title for this passage?
    A．RAF——a better choice than the Army B．A talk between Father and Son
    C．The dreams of a Cambridge student D．Conflict between Father and Son

    The government-run command post in Tunis is staffed around the clock by military personnel, meteorologists and civilians. On the wall are maps, crisscrossed with brightly colors arrows that painstakingly track the fearsome path of the enemy.
    　　What kind of invader gives rise to such high-level monitoring? Not man, not beast, but the lowly desert locust(蝗虫). In recent months, billions of the 3-inch-long winged warriors have descended on Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia, blackening the sky and eating up crops and vegetation. The insect invasion, the worst in 30 years, is already creating great destruction in the Middle East and is now treating southern Europe. The current crisis began in late 1985 near the Red Sea. Unusually rainy weather moistened the sands of the Sudan, making them ideal seedbed for the locust, which lays its eggs in the earth. The insect onslaught threatens to create yet another African famine. Each locust can eat its weight (not quite a tenth of an ounce) in vegetation every 24 hours. A good-size swarm of 50 billion insects eats up 100,000 tons of grass, trees and crops in a single night.
    　　All ﹩150 million may be needed this year. The U.S. has provided two spraying planes and about 50,000 gal. of pesticide. The European Community has donated ﹩3.8 million in aid and the Soviet Union, Canada, Japan and China have provided chemical-spraying aircraft to help wipe out the pests. But relief efforts are hampered by the relative mildness of approved pesticides, which quickly lose their deadly punch and require frequent replications. The most effective locust killer dieldrin has been linked to cancer and is banned by many Western countries and some of the affected African nations. More than 5 million acres have been dusted with locust-killing chemicals; another 5 million will be treated by the end of June.
    　　On May 30, representatives of Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Mauritania will meet in Algiers to discuss tactics to wipe out the ravenous swarms. The move is an important step, but whatever plan is devised, the locust plague promised to get worse before the insects can be brought under control.
    小题1:The main idea of the first sentence in the passage is that ______.
    A．the command post is stationed with people all the time.
    B．the command post is crowded with people all the time.
    C．there are clocks around the command post.
    D．the clock in the command post is taken care of by the staff.
    小题2: The favorable breeding ground for the locust is ______.
    A．rich soil.B．wet land
    C．paces covered crops and vegetationD．the Red Sea
    小题3: People are alert at the threat of the locust because ______.
    A．the insects are likely to create another African famine.
    B．the insects may blacken the sky.
    C．the number of the insects increases drastically.
    D．the insects are gathering and moving in great speed.
    小题4:Which of the following is true?
    A．Once the pesticides are used, locust will die immediately.
    B．Relief efforts are proved most fruitful due to the effectiveness of certain pesticides.
    C．Dieldrin, the most effective locust killer, has been widely accepted in many countries.
    D．Over 10 million acres of affected area will have been treated with locust-killing chemicals by the end of June.
    小题5: The purpose for affected nations to meet in Algiers on May 30 is ______.
    A．to devise anti-locust plans.
    B．to wipe out the swarms in two years.
    C．to call out for additional financial aid from other nations.
    D．to bring the insects under control before the plague gets worse.

    We've all heard the old saying，“Sticks and stones can break my bones，but words can never hurt me.” Don't you believe it？Words are powerful，and they can hurt—a lot. In fact，if you're not careful，you can even hurt yourself，by using the wrong word in your writing.
    Recently a friend sent me a copy of an e-mail she received from the customer service department of her credit card company，after she contacted them with a question about her account. She was happy with their positive response. But as I read the e-mail，one line jumped out at me：“In lieu of good customer service...”
    Did they really mean they were offering her a few extra reward points instead of good customer service？I doubt it. More likely，what the customer service department meant to say was，“Because good customer service is important to us...” followed by the details of what they were doing to make sure she remained a happy customer.
    So why didn't the writer say that？I can only guess that perhaps the writer liked the phrase “in lieu of”，thought it sounded more interesting than saying “because”，and so used it—without bothering to check the true meaning.
    Have you ever done that？Try to impress others with a big word，only to find out you've used the word incorrectly？It's just the opposite effect，isn't it？You may impress people all right，but it's not the impression you were going for.
    When you write，remember to choose your words carefully. People may still disagree with what you say，but they won't be able to dismiss you because you made careless mistakes in how you said it.
    小题1:What's the writer's purpose in giving the saying?
    A．To amuse the reader.B．To persuade the reader.
    C．To support a conclusion.D．To lead to the topic.
    小题2:What does the phrase “in lieu of” most probably mean?
    A．Because ofB．In honour ofC．Instead ofD．In favour of
    小题3:According to the writer，the customer service department ______.
    A．didn't prefer to use familiar words to attract customers
    B．didn't express what they really meant
    C．didn't need to offer their customers extra reward points
    D．succeeded in impressing their customers
