    In school, he is the teacher’s pet, her darling who can do nothing wrong. Sometimes she lets him do little jobs for her. He comes to class in the morning, all shiny and clean, He is always raising his hand, ready with an answer to the teacher’s questions. And he knows all the answers. He “gets into your hair”, especially if you are at the bottom of the class and the teacher thinks you are stupid. How you hate the white-haired boy!
    In college, he walks—more often strides—across the school grounds as if he owned them. Sometimes he wears a colorful football or basketball shirt or sweater, with a bright red, or green or yellow college letter proudly worn on the front of it—as a big B, for Bullfinch University.

He gets better and better jobs, with more and more money. But you stand still, wondering why, and trying to explain to your-self why you hate him so much.
    Then, you discover that there are others who share your feelings, ready to “let their hair down” —to tell you their private thoughts. One of them asks: “What does he have that I haven’t got?” You ask yourself the same question.
    Finally, there comes a day when you decide to stop hating him. Is it perhaps because he has been made boss and you find yourself working for him?

    C
    There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less, so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to using horses, carriages and bicycles.
    In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas made from petroleum (石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn’t go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can’t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.
    Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make the electricity! Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines (涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.
    We are also able to get power from the ocean tides. We put turbines into the mouth of the river. Then the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and then it goes out, it turns them again.
    Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?
    49. When might people have to go back to using horses and carriages?
    A. When they are poor.                          B. When they run out of oil.
    C. When they need more exercise.           D. When there aren’t any big trees in the world.
    50. What did some people use to make gas in the Second World War?
    A. Water                   B. Coal                 C. Wood and plants              D. Tides
    51. How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?
    A. 2                         B. 5                     C. 4                            D. 3
    52. The passage is mainly about ________ . 
    A. how to run our cars                              B. what to do when oil runs out   
    C. different types of gas                         D. the ways to make electricity

    The competition for Hollywood's highest honors has begun with the announcement Tuesday in Los Angeles of this year's nominations（提名）for the 82nd Academy Awards. 
    As expected, James Cameron's Avatar received a Best Picture nomination. And Cameron's former wife, Kathryn Bigelow, was nominated for The Hurt Locker, a war film set in Iraq.  Bigelow would be the first female director to win Best Picture.
    Hollywood author Tom O'Neil says the race between the former couple adds more drama to the competition.  "We have a classic David-versus-Goliath battle here for Best Picture at the Oscars. The most successful movie ever made, Avatar, up against a movie that lost money, The Hurt Locker - directed by the former Mrs. Goliath, Kathryn Bigelow. This race has all kinds of dimensions（程度） to it," he said.
    For the first time since 1943, 10 films are competing for the Best Picture award.
    Entertainment reporter Sam Rubin says that means greater interest in the Academy Awards ceremony March 7th.  "The Oscars are a television show," he explained. "So the idea is to increase ratings and interest in the television show."
    District Nine represents another departure -- a tale of science fiction -- like the box office hit Avatar.
    "No science-fiction movie has ever won Best Picture. Only two have been nominated in the past: Star Wars and E.T. Two are nominated for Best Picture now," O'Neil said.
    Best Picture nominee Precious is a drama about the struggles of an inner-city teen, and its director, Lee Daniels, is also nominated in the Best Director category. He is first African-American director to get a Best Picture nomination. 
    The other Best Picture nominees are An Education, The Blind Side, Inglourious Basterds, A Serious Man, and Up in the Air.
    Over the past 20 years, the film with the most nominations has won best picture 15 times --making Avatar and The Hurt Locker the favorites. 
    1. According to the passage, the director of the film __________might be the first female director to win Best Picture.
    A. Avatar       B. The Hurt Locker     C. Star Wars     D. The Blind Side
    2.How many films have been nominated for the Best Picture Award of the 82nd Oscars?
    A. 2           B. 6                C. 8             D.10
    3. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
    A. The nominations for the 2009 Oscar Best Picture Films
    B. The competition for Hollywood's highest honors has begun
    C. The race between a couple                D. Best Picture Award for the Oscars
    4. Which of the following is TRUE about Avatar?
    A. It is the most successful movie ever made.
    B. It’s the only science-fiction movie that has ever won Best Picture.
    C. It was directed by James Cameron                   D. It’s a war film.

    Why do people work? Of course, you may have asked yourself the same question as why you have to work. “Self-interest” in its broadest sense, including the interests of family and friends, is a basic motivation（动力）for work in all societies. But self-interest includes more than providing for living or getting wealth that people usually think. For example, a sense of duty, a feeling of competing, and a pleasure in working are other reasons for working. Studies show that most of Americans would continue to work even if they have had enough money to live comfortably.
    When people work, they gain a contributing place in society. The fact that what they receive pay for their work means that what they do is needed by other people and what they are doing is necessary to society. Work can also place people in the larger class of society and provide all kinds of identities (身份) for them. In the United States, it is a cruel public fact that to do nothing is to be nothing and to do little is to be little. Work is commonly seen as the measure of an individual (个人). 
    Some scientists have shown some of the ways that work has effect on our lives. Generally, people who always do their favorite work are more open to new ideas and easier to get along with others, and as parents they pass these characteristics on to their children. Our work then is an important social thing that makes us know who and what we are.
    64. Generally, people work for _____.
    A. self-interest      B. family       C. earning a living               D. the country
    65. In the passage, “what they receive pay for their work” means _____.
    A. that the work of the worker is recognized by society
    B. what they do is needed by other people
    C. that they are a necessary part of the social class
    D. That the workers are clever
    66. In the last paragraph, we can conclude that the author thinks ____.
    A. that work can make the worker rich
    B. that work can affect their lives
    C. that work can make the worker tired
    D. that work can make the worker know the world well
    67. The title of the passage is “______”.
    A. The Identity and the Work   B. The Work and the Society
    C. The Society and Individual   D. The Importance of Work

    For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective (形容词) “fashionable” in the same way: “She was wearing a fashionable color.”
    But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.
    Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from his grandson in 1860.
    Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
    New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.
    41  From this passage we know that “fashion” means _________.
    A  clothes   B  many things    C  most of the popular things    D  everything
    42  Which of the following things is fashionable today?
