    2．A group of kids at McIntyre Elementary School，in Pittsburgh，Pennsylvania，have created a special bench to make sure their fellow classmates aren't left out on the playground．Called the"Buddy Bench"，students can use the seat as a safe and supportive place to let others know they'd like to be included in playtime，but may be too shy to ask．
    The concept of the Buddy Bench is simple：Students who want to partake in playground games and activities，but may feel hesitant，can take a seat，which signifies（表明） to other children on the playground that they may need something extra to encourage them to participate．
    The idea for the bench came about last year，when Farrell，school counselor at McIntyre Elementary，was conducting a leadership group to help students overcome shyness and gain confidence．Four fourth-grade students came up with the idea for the Buddy Bench in this workshop，and worked with Farrell to draft a letter to present to the Parent Teacher Staff Organization to make the bench a reality．The PTSO approved the students'proposal，and installed（安装） a bright metal bench with a cheerful sign that reads"Buddy Bench"on the school's playground．
    Since it was installed on Nov.16，the bench has been effective．The simple concept has resonated with（引起共鸣） the students，and already has created a better environment within the school community．
    "Each day，I go to see the buddy bench working，"Farrell said．"The lessons they are learning now will benefit them their entire lives．It is simply a beautiful example of kids wanting to be kind and continue to be kind every day．"
    32．Who is Buddy Bench created for？C
    A．Students who love games and activities．
    B．Students who want and continue to be kind．
    C．Students who are left out on the playground．
    D．Students who are in Farrell's leadership group．
    33．Who thought of the idea for the Buddy Bench？B
    A．Farrell．
    B．Four students．
    C．The PTSO．
    D．Some parents．
    34．What does the word"they"in the last paragraph refer to？C
    A．The PTSO．
    B．Buddy Bench users．
    C．The workshop members．
    D．Farrell and teachers．
    35．Which of the following statements can show"the bench has been effective"？D
    A．More and more creative ideas have come up．
    B．The workshop kids have set a good example．
    C．The PTSO has decided to provide more buddy benches．
    D．Some shy students have found friends on the playground．

    1．Barack Obama urged congressional leaders on Monday to act quickly to pass a huge stimulus package for the U．S．economy．He met with a bipartisan （concerning or involving two different political parties） group of lawmakers on Capitol Hill．Later he met individually with Democratic and Republican House and Senate leaders and spoke to a bipartisan leadership gathering．In comments to reporters early on Monday，he emphasized the urgency of finalizing economic legislation （立法）．"We have got an extraordinary economic challenge ahead of us，"he said，"We are expecting a sobering job report at the end of the week．Nancy Pelosi and her staff have been extraordinarily helpful in working with our team so that we can shape an economic recovery and reinvestment plan that starts putting people back to work．"
    Mr．Obama wants tax cuts for individual Americans and businesses to make up a significant portion of expected legislation．This could involve as much as 300 billion dollars of a bill that is likely to go beyond 700 billion dollars and include aid to cash-poor U．S．states，and money for alternative energy and a range of infrastructure （基础设施） projects．Later，Mr．Obama said he expects to be able to sign legislation as soon as the end of this month，adding that quick action is necessary to"break the drive of the U．S．economic depression"．
    Emerging later from bipartisan talks with Mr．Obama，Nancy Pelosi said lawmakers discussed with the president how to pass a stimulus package as quickly as possible．"An economic recovery package that will create jobs immediately and will grow the economy and that is what we talked about today，"said Nancy Pelosi．"How we could do this fast，deliberatively and to act upon it soon．"Just how soon that would be，Pelosi would not say．
    How much support Democrats can obtain from Republicans will depend on the details．But the severity of the U．S．economic depression has created considerable bipartisan backing for quick action．Senate Majority Leader，Harry Reid said："There are investments that we need to make on behalf of the American people to turn around this economy．We felt very good about the meeting； we are confident that we can do this and we have to do this．"
    "I think the best thing I can do is to decline to comment on what they are going to do going forward，"said Dana Perino．"Obviously，we think that tax cuts were the right way to help our economy get out of the economic depression that this president inherited and we know that tax cuts can stimulate innovation．"Asked by reporters how large the economic stimulus package might be，Senate Majority Leader Reid said Obama indicated that all but one of some 28 economists advising him had said it should range from 800 billion dollars to 1.3trillion dollars．

    72．Barack Obama urged congressional leaders and met with bipartisan leaders toB．
    A．take over the White House    
    B．end economic decline
    C．understand each other better   
    D．negotiate political issues
    73．If the stimulus package is passed quickly and successfully，it canD．
    A．obtain support from Republicans   
    B．finalize economic legislation
    C．enhance America's international position  
    D．provide job opportunities
    74．What is the bipartisan leaders'attitude towards this meeting？B
    A．Uncertain．
    B．Hopeful．
    C．Disappointed．
    D．Indifferent．
    75．What can we infer from the passage？C
    A．The best way out of the economic depression is tax cuts．
    B．The Republic Party plays the key role in coping with the economic depression．
    C．Democrats and Republicans will team up in the economic depression．
    D．When the stimulus package will be passed is known to the lawmakers．

    5．As societies develop，their members start to see things not so much according to what they need，but according to what they want．（71）C

    15．A wood fire can be handy when you're camping．You can roast marshmallows or stay warm，for example．Forest fires that rage out of control，however，are a big problem．
    Wildfires cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage every year．And the amount of destruction has grown over the last 2 decades，especially in the western United States．
    To understand better why the northern Rocky Mountains region has been hit especially hard by wildfires，scientists from the University of Arizona in Tucson looked at weather，snow，and fire records from 1970 to 2003．^
    Their study showed that，between 1987 and 2003，fires burned an area 6.5 times larger than the area burned between 1970 and 1986．The fire season also started earlier-，and its average length increased by 78 days．
    Warmer spring and summer temperatures appear to be part of the explanation for this change．The average temperature in the study's more recent period was 0.871 higher than it was in the earlier period．And this trend is likely to continue．Experts predict that average summer temperatures may rise between 2¾and 5¾by the year 2050 in western North America．‘
    Hie timing of snowmelt appears to be another cause of the fire boom．When snow melts early in the season，forests become drier through the summer and catch fire and burn more easily．Western snow packs now typically melt a week to a month earlier than they did 50 years ago，according to recent studies．
    Some people have blamed the growing fire risk on policies that allow bush and branches to build up on forest floors．But clearing bush by itself won't help much if changes in climate are largely responsible for increasingly severe forest fires．
    43．The main purpose of studying the records from 1970 to 2003 was toD．
    A．find out solutions to forest fires
    B．prevent wildfires from happening frequently-
    C．know more about the climate changes in the past decades
    D．find out the causes of wildfires in the northern Rocky Mountains region
    44．Scientists fix＞m the University of Arizona found out the following EXCEPTD
    A．western snow packs melt earlier than they did 50 years ago
    B．fires burned larger area between 1987．and 2003 than between 1970 and 1986
    C．the fire season between 1987 and 2003 was longer than that between 1970 and 1986
    D．the average summer temperature will be I9C and 5¾higher by 2050 than it is now
    45．Which of the following statements will Scientists from the University of Arizona agree to？C
    A．More wildfires lead to the trend of global warming．
    B．Hot summers have nothing to do with the increasing wildfires．
    C．The earlier snow melts，the more probably forest fires will happen．
    46．Clearing bush will help control the increasingly severe forest fires．What is the main idea the author aims to express in the passage？C
    A．The damages caused by wildfires．
    B．The results of a study on wild fires．
    C．The causes of fires in the United States．
    D．The changes in climate in the western United States．

    2．A new college guide in the United States compares educational requirements in seven subjects．These include math，science，writing and United States history or government．The other subjects are economics，foreign language and literature．
    The free online guide is from the American Council of Trustees and Alumni．The council is a nonprofit group that supports liberal arts education．
    Its president，Anne Neal，says these areas of knowledge are needed to succeed in a twenty-first century society and an increasingly connected world．Yet she told VOA's Faiza Elmasry it was surprising how many students can graduate with，in her words，a"thin education．"
    Forty-two of the one hundred colleges and universities surveyed received the lowest marks．This meant they required two or fewer of the seven subjects．Five schools received a top grade for requiring six subjects．These were Brooklyn College in New York City，Texas A&M，the University of Texas-Austin，West Point and the University of Arkansas．
    Robert Costrell is a professor of education reform and economics at the University of Arkansas．He says many，if not all，of the top American colleges once had a core curriculum-a set of courses required for all students．
    But over the years，many have dropped these requirements．Or they have watered them down，Professor Costrell says，into what became known as distribution requirements．This system lets a student choose from a number of different courses to satisfy a requirement．
    ROBERT COSTRELL："And in many cases these courses went too far，I would say，towards the fluffy treatment of serious material，and students could satisfy their requirement by taking such courses．"
    Professor Costrell says schools should not only re-examine what they teach．They should also measure what students have learned-for example，through some form of examinations or papers．
    A new report this week from the College Board showed that college prices continue to rise．But Anne Neal from the American Council of Trustees and Alumni says higher prices do not guarantee a better general education．In fact，the group found that the higher the tuition，the more likely that students have to develop their own general education．
    The college guide is on the Web at whatwilltheylearn．com．Anne Neal says her group is surveying more colleges．The hope，she says，is to discover what college graduates have really learned，and how ready they are to compete in the global marketplace．

    67．Where does the passage probably come from？B
    A．A scientific fiction．      B．A research newspaper．
    C．A fashion magazine．        D．An entertainment newspaper．

    19．Some people are like homing pigeons：Drop them off anywhere，and they'll find their way around．Other people，though，can't tell when they're holding a map upside down．Are the directionally challenged just bad learners？
    Not all of your navigational （导航的）skills are learned．Research shows that your sense of direction is innate．An innate ability is something you are born with．Your brain has special navigational neurons-head-direction cells，place cells，and grid cells （网格细胞）-and they help program your inside compass when you're just a baby．
    In 2010，scientists carried out an experiment to study baby rats'neural activity in their brains．Although the rats were newborns，the researchers discovered that their head-direction cells （which help them recognize the direction they're facing） were fully grown and developed．The rats，it seemed，were born with a sense of direction．And they hadn't even opened their eyes yet!
    Humans，of course，are not rats．But the hippocampus-the brain area we use for navigation-is similar in most mammals．If the rat's compass develops this way，then it's likely that a human's compass does，too．
    If we're born with a sense of direction，then why are some people so good at getting lost？The scientists found that the two other cells-place and grid cells-developed within the first month．Place cells are thought to help us form a map in our mind，while grid cells help us navigate new and unfamiliar places．The two cells work together，and that's where the trouble might be．
    People who took part in a 2013study played a video game that required them to travel quickly between different places．Monitoring their brains，the scientists found that grid cells helped the gamers recognize where they were-even without landmarks．According to researcher Michael Kahana，differences in how grid cells work may help explain why some people have a better sense of direction than others．

    32．What did the 2010research find？A
    A．Rats have a natural ability to recognize directions．
    B．Rats'hippocampus is different from that of humans．
    C．Rats usually find their way without opening their eyes．
    D．Baby rats have as many head-direction cells as grown-ups．
    33．What do we know about our navigational neurons？D
    A．Place cells let us know how to read a map．
    B．Grid cells help us reach the place we are going to．
    C．They help us use a compass when we lose our way．
    D．Place and grid cells grow later than head-direction cells．
    34．Why are some people so good at getting lost？B
    A．They can't remember landmarks．
    B．Their grid cells can't work very well．
    C．They are unfamiliar with new places．
    D．Their ability to follow directions is poor．
    35．What is the text mainly about？A
    A．Human navigational skills．
    B．The compass in rats'body．
    C．Why grid cells are useful．
    D．How homing pigeons work．

    20．We talk about people being"color-blind"but very few of us are．Even those who describe  themselves as color-blind are normally just color lack．A strongly color-blind person will still be able to tell 20different colors，compared to the 100or so that normal-sighted people see．
    Pingelap，a tiny island in the Pacific，is a beautiful spot but one that has a genetic trouble．It is known as Color Blind Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white．
    Not being able to see in color is bad enough．But one islander，Herrol，who's a fisherman，also struggles in full sunlight because all he sees is a painful burnt-out image．"I find it difficult to go outside in the sun，"he says，"because when it's sunny I cannot see to do my work．"
    But if being truly color-blind is rare，why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap lire in a totally black and white world？
    Well，we know that in 1780the population of Pingelap was all but wiped out by a tsunami．As few as 20people survived，one of whom was the king．It's believed he had a genetic fault that causes color-blindness and he passed this fault on to his many generations．
    There is one advantage．Herrol can see well，really well，in the dark．So when it gets dark，Herro1and his friends get in their boats and hunt flying fish．They hang up flaming torches and the fish are attracted to the flames．"This type of fishing is fun，"Herrol says，"especially if we catch plenty．So even though it's hard work we enjoy it．"
    5．What is Pingelap famous as？B
    A．A tiny island．                   
    B．A color-blind island
    C．A mentally troubled island．        
    D．A beautiful island．
    6．What can we infer about Herrol？A
    A．He may stay at home when it's sunny．
    B．He is interested in burnt-out images．
    C．He likes taking photos very much．
    D．He doesn't live in Pingelap any more．
    7．What would be the best title for the text？C
    A．The history of Pingelap          
    B．The disadvantage of Herrol
    C．The island of color blindness      
    D．The advantage of color blindness．
