6.A dog can be a source of help,as well as comfort,to someone who is disabled.Properly trained,a dog will pick up dropped items,help with dressing,turn on lights,activate an alarm and perform other tasks that allow disabled people to be independent.With a dog as a companion-and in need of a walk-a person who might otherwise stay alone at home can gain the confidence to go out and socialize.
Founded 22 years ago by Frances Hay,who had lost a leg to bone cancer,Dogs for the Disabled has redrawn the boundaries (界线) of who can be helped by dogs,and how.Other charities that train dogs focus on adult partnerships but,since 2004,Dogs for the Disabled has been helping under-18s.Starting with physically disabled children,dogs trained by the charity have given young people so much practical support that some are attending college.
Sam,a nine year-old with muscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症),used to long for a friend who would never leave him or tell him he couldn't play."Sam's frustration filled every part of his life,"his mother,Sara,remembers."He stopped going out-even into the garden."In May 2009,Sam was partnered with a two-year-old dog,Josie,who helps him with everything from tidying his room to putting on splints (夹板).At night,she sleeps next to him and warns his parents if he is sick."Things were rubbish until she came to love me,"says Sam.
The assistance dogs have proved so successful that the charity cannot keep pace with demand.In an improved kennels (狗舍) near Banbury,a maximum of 30 dogs are trained at any one time,at a cost of?11,000 each.To date,the charity has created 450 dog-human partnerships of which 240 are currently active.

A.Sam had not a single friend in the past
B.Josie rid Sam of his depression and changed his life
C.Sam used to go out to relax for pleasure frequently
D.Josie can predict when Sam is ill and warns his parents

14.Why do people go to university?There is a popular notion that a college education is something to be endured in order to become (50)B to obtain certain kinds of jobs or to go to graduate school.This is not what we are trying to do at Harvard,nor would we wish to have many students here who took such a(n)(51)C view of a college career.
There are several goals we aim to reach in our undergraduate program.
The most obvious one is to give knowledge-fairly (52)A knowledge in one field and a more general knowledge of a variety of other subject areas which you may choose according to your interest.But if acquiring knowledge is a self-evident part of a college education,it is (53)B the most important.Remarkably few of the facts you learn here will remain in your (54)A for many years,and some of those that do will even be proved (55)C by new knowledge.
(56)A,we can instill(灌输) certain attitudes of mind-a willingness to accept uncertainty,and the lack of definite truths; independence of mind,and a respect for facts and for the uncomfortable conclusions which facts sometimes lead to.
In addition to these (57)D qualities,a college education should try to lay a foundation for the creative use of (58)D time.Some of this capacity can be stimulated in the classroom-in courses in the humanities and the arts.Yet,at least as much (59)B will occur outside the lecture hall-on athletic fields,in music rooms,student theaters,concert halls,and so forth.
These are some of the (60)B of a liberal college education as I see them.I cannot resist concluding with a few private thoughts about our new careers at Harvard.
To begin with,I hope that we will think (61)A about what we want to accomplish here.It would be (62)C for you to set your sights on some limited goal,such as getting good grades or merely getting into one or another graduate school.
Second,I hope that you will give some thought to what you can do for others during your stay here.There are many problems waiting for your help,and many people who could (63)B your efforts.
My final bit of advice.Whatever else we do,let us remember not to take ourselves too seriously.However great our problems may seem,however urgent our complaints,they are overshadowed(黯然失色) by the (64)Cof countless other people on our planet.

1.There has been a dramatic increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years,and it is assumed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disasters in the future.Some of the world's leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.
Lcmdoii
 London's flood defenses are getting older.Since 1982,the Thames Barrier has protected the city from the threat of flooding,but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years.About 26 years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year,and according to Environment Agency predictions,by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.
 There are 26 underground stations,400 schools,16 hospitals,an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London's flood risk area,so large scale flooding would be disastrous.
 Paris
 Over a six-week period in July and August,2003',more than 11,400mainly elderly people-died in France from dehydration (脱水)and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave.Heat waves of similar intensity (强度)are expected every seven years by 2050,so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again?
 One solution is to have air conditioners installed in elderly care homes.But this is considered a short-term solution,as the increase in demand for electricity also increases carbon emissions (排放).
 In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building"Flower Tower",which uses a covering of bamboo to aet as a natural air conditioner.Shan^im Shanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth.It has a population of 18 million and is only 4 meters above sea level.Sea level is predicted to rise by 20cm within the next century.
 An estimated 250,000 people move to Shanghai every year hunting for jobs,placing extra demands on energy consumption.China relies heavily on coal-fired power stations,but these emissions increase temperature and,in turn,Waraieii seas increase the risk of typhoons.
72.What problem should be settled now in London?D
 A.How to protect the city's property.
 B.Where to build its flood defenses.
 C.How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city.
 D.How to improve the function of its flood defenses.
73.Which of the following can NOT solve the heat wave disaster in Paris according to the passage?C
 A.Limiting the amount of carbon emissions from factories or cars.
 B.Having air conditioners installed in elderly care homes.
 C.Forbidding the city to build"Flower Tower".
 D.Encouraging architercts to design new types of buildings.
74.The major threat to Shanghai is  according to the passage.B
 A.the increasing population and the need for jobs
 B.rising sea level and typhoons
 C.extremely high temperature and rising sea level
 D.extra demands on energy consumption and typhoons
75.The purpose of the passage is to.D
 A.tell us how to protect the big cities
 B.give advice on how to defend against natural disasters
 C.explain what causes flood and heat waves
 D.warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big cities.

11.Areas of Tokyo which had usually been packed with office workers like sushi(寿司) restaurants and noodle shops were unusually quiet.Many schools were closed.Companies allowed workers to stay home.Long queues formed at airports.
As Japanese authorities struggled to avoid disaster at an earthquake-battered nuclear plant 240 km to the north,parts of Tokyo resembled a ghost town.Many people stocked up on food and stayed indoors or simply left.transforming one of the world's biggest and most populated cities into a shell of its usual self.
"Look,it's like Sunday-no cars in town,"said Kazushi Arisawa,a 62-year-old taxi driver,as he waited for more than an hour outside an office tower where he usually finds customers within minutes."I can't make money today."
Radiation in Tokyo has been negligible, briefly touching three times the normal rate on Tuesday,smaller than a dental X-ray.On Wednesday,winds over the Fukushima (福岛) nuclear-power plant blew out to sea,keeping levels close to normal.But that does little to relieve public anxiety about a 40-year-old nuclear plant with three reactors in partial meltdown (熔毁)and a fourth with spent atomic fuel exposed to the atmosphere after last Friday's earthquake and tsunami.
"Radiation moves faster than we do,"said Steven Swanson,a 43-year-old American who moved to Tokyo in December with his Japanese wife to help with her family business.He is staying indoor but is tempted to leave."It's scary.It's a triple threat with the earthquake,tsunami and the nuclear radiation leaks.It makes you wonder what's next."
56.The text is mainly aboutC   
A.the earthquake that happened in March
B.the government's effort to avoid disaster
C.the effects of the nuclear radiation leaks
D.the earthquake-battered nuclear-power plant
57.What did Kazushi Arisawa mean?D
A.There're usually more cars on Sundays.
B.He didn't care much about nuclear radiation.
C.He preferred to stay at home on Sundays.
D.He couldn't find many customers.
58.The underlined word"negligible"in Paragraph 4 most probably meansB.
A.serious          B.slight           C.normal          D.average
59.What can we learn about the Fukushima nuclear-power plant from the text?C
A.It lies to the south of Tokyo.
B.It started to operate about fifty years ago.
C.It was damaged in the earthquake and tsunami.
D.All its four reactors are now well under control
60.Which of the following is true of Steven Swanson?A
A.He moved to Japan with his wife last year.
B.He is now on way back to the United States.
C.He wanted to stay on to see what's next.
D.He is quite confident about the future.
