5.Dear All,
Happy New Year!A list of important dates for this term is attached to this letter.
Interviews for our April and September Primary One classes will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday,18th&19th January.Now is the time to apply for admission to Peak School.
Children are expected to weal their uniforms this term.As is usual at this time of the year,mornings at the school are quite cold and l would suggest children wear their sweaters to school.As the temperature goes up during the day,children tend to take off their outer clothes,so it is important that all sweatshirts are labeled(贴有标签).
I have received a few requests from parents asking if their children can wear summer uniforms this term.I am of the view that all children in the school should follow the school policy and be dressed in the appropriate uniforms.In the longer term,a number of US at school have questioned the need to have a winter and summer uniform.Perhaps.with careful consideration,we can develop a uniform that will serve children for the whole academic year.
As the foggy(多雾)mornings start to appear,a number of parents have raised concerns over the safety of those children who walk to school.  Our dark green uniforms are not particularly visible to motorists.Hopefully,the"Uniform Committee"to be set up this term will deal with this particular issue.I will keep parents informed of the channels through which views may be expressed in future newsletters.
We still have a"No Hat,No Play"rule on the playground,so children need to ensure that they have their sunhats in school at all times.
Yours sincerely,
P D Tunesi
Principal

49.The letter was most probably writtenB.
A.when the school year ended
B.before the new term started
C.after kids were admitted to school
D.after kids were interviewed
50.This letter was mainly written toD.
A.teachers    B.visitors    C.students    D.parents
51.What do we know about the present school uniforms?C
A.The school has solved the problems.
B.They are invisible to motorists on foggy days.
C.The school is considering changing them.
D.There is a winter and summer school uniform.
52.We can infer from the text thatA.

D.most kids walk to school on foggy mornings.

15.On the high-speed train Avignon to Paris,my husband and I landed in the only remaining seats on the train in the middle of a car,directly opposite a Frenchwoman of middle years.It was an extremely uncomfortable arrangement to be looking straight into the eyes of a stranger.My husband and I pulled out books.The woman produced a large makeup case and made up her face.Except for a lunch break,she continued this activity for the entire three-hour trip.Every once in a while she surveyed the car with a bright-eyed glance,but never once did she catch my eye.My husband and I could have been a blanket wall.
     I was amused,but some people would have felt uncomfortable,even repulsed(厌恶的).there is something about making up in public that calls up strong emotional reactions.Partly it's a question of hygiene.And it's a matter of degree.Making up----a private act----has a way of neglecting the presence of others.I was once seated at a party with a model-actress who immediately waved a silly brush and began dusting her face at the table,demonstrating that while she was next to me,she was not with me.
     In fact,I am generally prohibited from making up in public,except when I am in the company of cosmetics moment.In a gathering more professional than social,I would do so.
     Kathy Peiss,a history professor at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst says that nose-powdering in the office was an occasion for outrage in 1920's and 30's.Deploring(强烈反对) the practice as a waste of company time,trade journals advises managers to discourage it among workers.Peiss theorizes that it was female's making up in what has been an all-male field that disturb some gentlemen.
      Peiss tells me that after the 30's,pulling out a make-up case was no longer an issue.It became an accepted practice.I asked if she feels free to apply lipstick at a professional lunch herself.Sounding mildly shocked,she says she would save that for the privacy of her car afterward.Why?Because it would be"a gesture of inappropriate feminity(女性化)."One guess is that most professional women feel this way.There is evidence of the popularity of the new lipsticks that remain in place all day without retouching.

61.According to the author,"My husband and I could have been a blanket wall."(Line 6,Para.1)most probably means"A".
A.We were of no existence in the French woman's eyes.
B.We looked at the French woman expressionlessly.
C.We were treated with an expressionless face.
D.We used books as a wall to avoid the woman's eyes.
62.In the author's opinion,sheD.
A.feels comfortable when making up in public.
B.makes up before any professional gatherings.
C.only makes up on social occasions.
D.allows public making up on certain occasions.
63.According to Peiss,nose powdering in an office was criticized mainly for the reason thatB.
A.normal office work was disturbed.
B.make dominance was emphasized there.
C.it discouraged women's interest in career.
D.it distracted make workers'focus on work.
64.Why do most professional women give up using lipsticks in public?D
A.Because they are worried about being looked down upon.
B.Because it implies women's disadvantages in academic fields.
C.Because they are ashamed to be seen making up in front of males.
D.Because it emphasizes their female features in wrong situations.
65.It can be inferred that in a highly open society,the differences between men and womenC.
A.have attracted little attention.
B.hinder the social development.
C.still call for great concern.
D.are attractive topics in talk shows.

16.A Korean wave is sweeping across China,and You Who Came From The Star and The Heirs have been subjects of hot online discussions throughout Asia.Besides,the book,The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane,read by the hero in You Who Came From The Star was a hard-to-get item on Amazon for a while.
After the enormous craze generated by Great Jang-Geum in 2003,the resurgence (复活) of South Korean TV dramas can be attributed to the joint efforts of the country's government and TV series makers.The South Korean government issued regulations saying at least 80percent of the TV programs had to be domestically produced.It also fixed the minimum number of homemade TV series to be broadcast in the country.That not only helped South Korean TV productions gain a firm foothold in the domestic market,but also laid the foundation for their successful attempt into overseas markets.
Recent years have seen great innovations in South Korean TV productions in terms of themes and narrative patterns.Take You Who Came From The Star as an example.Although aliens visiting Earth is an often-used theme,You Who Came From The Star's script remains logical and fast-paced.It mixes the plot with romance and murder and keeps the audience guessing about how the story will unfold.When it comes to love stories,the new South Korean teleplays no longer use the sorrow card; instead,they introduce them with unpredictable ideas and romantic punch lines.
The three TV stations,SBS,KBS and MBC,control the majority of South Korean TV market,each specializing in a different area and appealing to people of different ages.The productions are smooth and use advanced technologies such as high-speed photography and computer-generated effects,creating a real-life visual impact.
Moreover,the filming for South Korean productions generally starts when the scripts (剧本) are just one-third ready.Many popular productions have their own websites,where scriptwriters post part of the finished scripts,inviting viewers to leave messages,discuss the plot and come up with suggestions for future series.This not only keeps viewers'interest in the TV dramas alive,but also helps scriptwriters and directors make changes to the storylines to suit the audience's demand.
Hopefully,the success of South Korean TV programs will prompt Chinese TV drama makers to think up new ideas and abandon their bad practice of copying foreign productions in order to attract more viewers at home,and possibly abroad.

67.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT one South Korean TV drama?C
A.You Who Came From The Star.               B.The Heirs.
C.The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.  D.Great Jang-Geum.
68.Why are most of South Korean TV programs required to be produced within South Korea?C
A.Because the TV programs produced out of South Korea are poorly made.
B.Because they can't match up to better produced works from other countries.
C.Because South Korean TV series are encouraged to promote its development.
D.Because just South Korea can provide enough TV market for them.
69.What kind of ending does You Who Came From The Star probably have?D
A.Sad and surprising.  B.Violent and frightening.
C.Romantic and sad.    D.Romantic and happy.
70.What's the advantage of South Korean TV programs over Chinese TV dramas?D
A.Government's support.  B.Often-used theme.
C.Different technologies. D.Changeable scripts.

Billie Holiday was born Eleanora Fagan in 1915in Baltimore,Maryland.Her parents were Sadie Fagan and Clarence Holiday.They were young when their daughter was born.Their marriage failed because Clarence Holiday was often out.He traveled as a musician with some of the earliest jazz bands and inspired his daughter.
Sadie Fagan cleaned people's houses to make a living.But she could not support her family with the money she earned.So she moved to New York City where the pay was higher.She left her daughter in Baltimore with one of her distant relatives (亲戚).
