Rescuers on Friday found the corpse of the last miner missing in the coal mine blast in northeast China, bringing the death toll to 108, the investigation authority said.

The body was recovered at about 4 p.m. Friday in the debris of a shaft at the Xinxing Coal Mine in Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province, said Zhang Jinguan, spokesman of the investigation team of the fatal accident.

The searching efforts had come to an end and workers were clearing up the mine shaft, said Zhang.

The blast ripped through the mine under the state-owned Heilongjiang Longmei Mining Holding Group's subsidiary in Hegang Saturday afternoon. A total of 528 miners were working underground when the blast happened, and 420 escaped from the scene.

Safety officials and investigators have blamed poor management and inadequate safety precautions for the coal mine blast.

By Thursday, relatives of 59 miners killed in the blast had signed compensation agreements with the mining company.

According to the compensation scheme, each family of the dead miner could get 102,600 yuan ($15,024) in allowances plus a compensation package of either a one-off 200,000 yuan payment, or a long-term scheme of 708 yuan a month for the spouse and 531 yuan a month for parents and children.

(C)

Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad众多方面的of services, including labor, professional, transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationships of all these prices make up the “system” of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
  If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define “price”, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words that price is the money values of a product or service as agreed upon in a market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far as it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the amount of money involved must be known. Both the buyer and the seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and other factors. In other words, both buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that comprise the total “package” being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.

69. According to the first paragraph, what makes up the price system of the US?

 A. Labor, professional, transportation, and public-utility有益 services.

B. A complex network composed of the prices of all the products bough and sold in the economy and also those of a myriad of services.

C. Any particular product or service.

 D. To depend on “how resources are to be used”.

70. How many factors are there to define “Price”?

   A. more than 7  B. more than 8  C. more than 9  D. more than 10

71. Which statement is true according to the passage?

   A. Price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product.

   B. Price is the money value of a product.

   C. Price is not only an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service but the amount and quality of the product and other factors.

   D. Price is the asked-for amount of money.

72. What’s the best title of the passage?

   A. How Resources are to be Used.    B. The Price System

   C. The Factors of “Price”           D. The Definition of “Price”

A

“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”

This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in AD 52 wrote it.

We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?

Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phones rings; a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen; the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done again. How calm and happy do you feel?

Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who haven’t telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be more delighted? Perhaps they lead simpler lives.

One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughters and grandsons Benjamin,10 and Tomas,7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machines, microwaves, computers or mobile phones.

The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” she said. The boys said they found less to fight over, such as their computers. Benjamin also noticed that his grandfather had changed from “a fashionable beer-drinking granny to one who cooked things for them.”

Here are some simple tips to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!

Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your cell phones at certain times of the day. Don’t check your e-mail every day.

Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because they can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying.

41. The passage is mainly about_____________.

A. improvements of our life with technology    

B. the leading roles modern technology plays in our daily life

C .major changes which will be likely to happen to our everyday life

D. problems with the development of modern technology

42. In Paragraph Four, the writer describes a picture to show that new inventions __________.

   A. have sped up our lives                             B. may bring people some trouble

   C. have improved the quality of our lives              D. may make people feel very happy

43. Why did the family choose to spend some time in a 1940s house?

A. Because they liked to live simple lives.

B. Because they were troubled by the modern inventions.

   C. Because they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions.

   D. Because living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them.

44. What do you think the underlined word available means?

   A. busy on line       B. found easily by others     C. troublesome       D. free

Thousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states. They wanted to buy lottery tickets (彩票). The tickets cost only $ 0.9 each. But that small spending could bring them a reward of $ 90 million .That was the second largest lottery jackpot (积累奖金) in history .  

More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing. Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80.The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million, but that little chance certainly didn’t affect ticket sales.

There are also many addicts who take the game seriously. They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets. Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit.

    Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes. The profits from lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens.
