         Busy senior managers need no longer waste time in showering themselves-an Australian company has
    invented a suit that can be worn while they wash.
         The suit has been specially designed so that it can be cleaned under the showerhead.There is no need
    for soaking (浸泡), dry cleaning-or even soap.
         The Japanese market has taken a liking to the "shower suit", described as "revolutionary" by its owner Australian Wool Innovation (AWI), which is the research and marketing body that represents Australian
    woolgrowers.Orders have been placed for 170,000 of the woolen suits.
         The suit could be worn in the shower, although it was probably better to hang it on a clothes hanger
    and carry it instead, AWI corporate affairs spokesman Stephen Feighan said."The idea is that you hang it
    up and then...you give it a spray (喷雾), and it's dry the next morning, " Mr Feighan said.
         A Japanese researcher working for AWI invented the suit by combining three technologies.The secret
    is the best lining (内衬), which allows the suit to dry quickly.The shower suit attracted busy corporate
    people, particularly those who often traveled or stayed up late, Mr Feighan said.The airline industry was
    also interested.
         Mr Feighan confessed he had not worn one of the suits yet, or tried to wash it in the shower, because
    they cut to fit Japanese figures.
         AWI believes that the shower suit will spread from the Japanese market through Europe and India.
    Mr Feighan hoped the suit, made from local wool, would be available in Australia in 12 to 18 months'
    time.

    1. What is the writing purpose of the article?

    A. To introduce a newlydesigned shower suit.
    B. To help the white collars arrange their life more sensibly.
    C. To provide suggestions on saving time in bath.
    D. To praise AWI for its important achievement.

    2. Which is true about the suit according to the passage?

    A. It can spare the owner's trouble of soaking, dry cleaning and applying soap.
    B. It is of the quality of fast dry for its best cloth.
    C. It is not suitable for hanging.
    D. It has attracted more orders than any other suit.

    3. The suit draws the attention from all the following groups EXCEPT________.

    A. corporate people who are always on the go
    B. people on occasional business trips
    C. the airline industry
    D. people burning the midnight oil

    4. Which of the following has much to do with Mr Feighan?

    A. The invention of the suit.
    B. The tryon of the suit.
    C. The combination of the three technologies on the suit.
    D. The popularization of the suit and best wishes for it

    5. It can be inferred from the passage that________.

    A. Australians prefer foreign markets to the domestic one
    B. wool is the most favorite material for clothing
    C. westerners have different body sizes and figures from easterners
    D. Australia's economy will not recover within a year

         Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap. Some
    call it the summer learning setback. Put simply, it means the longer kids are out of school, the more they
    forget. The only thing they might gain is weight. Recent studies show that children gain weight more
    quickly in the summer vacation than when they are in school.
         Most American schools follow a traditional nine-month calendar. Students get winter and spring
    breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation. Some schools follow a year?round calendar. They
    hold classes for about eight weeks at a time, with a few weeks off in between. But many experts point
    out that the number of class days in a year-round school is generally the same as in a traditional school.
         Last year, a study at Ohio State University reported that year-round students did not learn any more
    than other students. Lead researcher Paul von Hippel said "year-round schools don't really solve the
    problem of the summer learning setback. They simply spread it out across the year".
         Across the country, research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the
    summer vacation than other students. Experts say this can be prevented. They note that many schools
    and local governments offer the programs that can help.
         But calling them "summer schools" could be a problem. The director of the summer learning center
    at Johns Hopkins, Ron Fairchild, recently wrote about this issue on his blog.
         He said that in American culture, the idea of summer vacation is connected to the beliefs about
    freedom and the joys of childhood. He said research with groups of different parents in Chicago and
    Baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term summer school. They said it created an image
    of children being forced to do work they missed during the school year.
    1. Which of the following is the result of the long summer vacation?
    A. Kids become much stronger.
    B. More kids drop out of school.
    C. Kids become poor in learning.
    D. Kids take part in all kinds of activities.
    2. Some American schools have their vacations ________.
    A. every two months  
    B. every few weeks
    C. every three months  
    D. every four months
    3. The study at Ohio State University suggests that ________.
    A.  the traditional calendar is better than the year－round one
    B. the year-round calendar is better than the traditional one
    C. the traditional calendar is as bad as the year-round one
    D. the year-round calendar is the same as the traditional one
    4. The summer vacation is most likely to have bad effect on the kids ________.
    A. who are too young  
    B. whose families are poor
    C. who are too naughty  
    D. who don't work hard
    5 According to American culture during the summer vacation kids ________.
    A.  should try their best to improve their lessons
    B. must choose to take part in one of the programs
    C. should do what they like and enjoy themselves
    D. must be forced to make up for their poor lessons

         "Sesame Street" has been called "the longest street in the world". That is because the television program
    by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of American's exports
    soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.
         In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more
    than half the nation's pre-school children, from every kind of economic (经济的), racial (种族的), and
    geographical group.
         Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers
    also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned
    from "Sesame Street" are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.
         Tests have shown that children from all racial, geographical, and economic backgrounds have benefited
    from watching it. Those who watch it five times a week learn more than occasional (偶然的) viewers. In the
    US the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who
    can watch it regularly.
         The programs all use songs, stories, jokes, and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers,
    letters and human relationships. But there are some differences. For example, the Spanish program, produced
    in Mexico City, devotes more time to teaching whole words than to teaching separate letters.
         Why has "Sesame Street" been so much more successful than other children's shows? Many reasons have
    been suggested. People mention the educational theories (理论) of its creators, the support by the government
    and private (私人的) businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important
    reason is that mothers watch it along with their children, This is partly be- cause famous adult stars often
    appear on it. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching feel
    able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.
    1. "Sesame Street" is actually _____.
    A. a street in the US
    B. a program for children
    C. a program for teachers
    D. a program for students
    2. Children who often watch the program _____. 
    A. can have problems in school
    B. will find it a great help
    C. will take no interest in their studies
    D. will be well educated
    3. What is special about the program?
    A. It offers great fun.
    B. It makes children feel able to learn.
    C. It is shown at different hours during the week.
    D. Children learn and enjoy themselves while watching.
    4. Why is "Sesame Street" so popular in the world?
    A. Because it is supported by the government and businesses.
    B. Because it uses a variety of skillful tricks.
    C. Because mothers watch it along with their children.
    D. Because it makes every child watching it feel able to learn.

         Japanese high school students either walk or ride bicycles if the distance is not too great. In other
    cases, students must take public buses and trains. After junior high school, students attend schools
    based on their high school entrance examination scores. So some students travel a great distance to
    attend the school.
         ________
         The school day begins at 8:30. Then students assemble in their homeroom classes for the day's
    studies. Each homeroom has an average of 40-45 students. Students stay in their homeroom
    classrooms for most of the school day. Only for physical education, laboratory classes, or other
    subjects requiring special facilities(设备) do students move to different parts of the school. Between
    classes and at lunchtime, classrooms can be noisy, lively places. Some schools may have a cafeteria(自
    助餐厅), but most do not. In most schools, students bring a box lunch from home, prepared by the
    mother in the early morning hours.
         Japanese students spend 240 days a year at school, 60 days more than American students. Students
    in hig h schools take three years' each of the following subjects mathematics, social studies, Japanese,
    science, and English. Other subjects include physical education, music, art, and moral(道德的) studies.
    All the students in one grade level study the same subjects. Given the number of required subjects,
    electives(选修科目) are few.
         Afterschool Activities
         Club activities take place after school every day. Students can join only one club, and they rarely
    change clubs from year to year, so the clubs are relatively stable. Clubs are made up of sports clubs
    (baseball, soccer, judo, kendo, etc.) and culture clubs(English, broadcasting, science, etc.). New
    students usually are encouraged to select a club shortly after the school year begins in April. Clubs
    meet for two hours after school each day and many clubs continue to meet during school vacations.

    1. Most Japanese high school students often have their lunch________.
    A. in restaurants  
    B. in school cafeterias

    根据短文内容,从下框的A～F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项,选项中有一项为多余项.
    A.  The likely reason of global warming
    B．Global warming-a world problem
    C．The fast increase in recent years
    D．What we should do to avoid greenhouse gases producing
    E．The earth is becoming warmer
    F．Different opinions on the cause of global warming
         1________
         Is the world warming up? According to many reports, the answer is yes. Eleven of the hottest years
    since 1850 appeared between 1995 and 2006. Last year, the United Nation's Intergovernment Panel on
    Climate Change (IPCC) reported the earth was about 0.75 ? warmer than it was in 1850. While this
    doesn't sound like a lot, a small difference in average temperature can make a big difference in climate.
    During the last Ice Age, the planet was only about five degrees colder than now.      
         2．________
         It's all about the speed at which temperatures are changing. In the past,temperatures moved up or down step by step. But in the 20th century,  especially since 1976,  temperatures  have  likely risen more quickly
    than during any century in the last 1000 years. Warming may bring improved harvests to northern countries such as Canada  and  Russia.  However,  many species won't like  these  conditions.  They begin moving
    towards cooler places and cause lots of trouble to human world.
         3．________
         The IPCC reported that human activity is very likely responsible for increasing the greenhouse effect.
    Some gases  cause the air  to  take in  heat  energy. Without  the greenhouse effect,  the  earth's average
    temperature would be－18? rather than the present comfortable 14.6 ?. The main greenhouse gases are
    carbon dioxide, water vapor and some other gases. Burning oil,coal and waste add to the carbon dioxide,
    and it has increased 35% since 1850.
         4．________
         Many researchers have found that natural forces alone don't explain the temperature increases over the
    last 30 to 40 years. Their study shows that as carbon dioxide goes up, temperature will rise, too. But some scientists don't agree. They think the effect of human produced greenhouse gases is very small compared
    to the normal changes that the climate causes.
         5．________
       When asked whether humans are causing the world warming,Carl Wunsch, a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology says, "It seems very likely from what I've seen. Is it 100% sure? No. There is
    something to do with natural changes." Does that mean we should have a "waitandsee" attitude? No. He
    points out we buy house insurance not because we are sure our homes will be on fire, but because it's a
    danger we'd rather avoid.

         The horsepower was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt had made the world's first widely
    used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were
    no units for measuring power.
         Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that init one
    horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.
         He discovered that a horse could lift a 3,300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine
    could lift a 3,300 pound weight 100 feet in one minute.
         Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten-horsepower engine.
    1. Watt made the world's first _____.
    A. train
    B. engine
    C. steam engine
    D. bus
    2. Watt wanted to find a way _____.
    A. to lift a 3,300-pound weight
    B. to show how useful his steam engine was

    winner.Like a border conflict between neighboring countries,  the parentteen war is about boundaries:
    Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
         Both sides want peace,  but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict.In part,  this is because
    neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it.From the parents' point of view,  the only cause
    of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness.And of course,  the_teens_see_it_in_exactly_
    the_same_way, _except_oppositely.Both feel trapped.
         In this article,  I'll describe three nowin situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and
    then suggest some ways out of the trap.The first nowin situation is quarrels over unimportant things.
    Examples include the color of the teen's hair,  the cleanliness of the bedroom,  the preferred style of
    clothing,  the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school,  or his tendency to sleep until noon on
    the weekends.Second,  blaming.The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad
    attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong.Third,  needing to be right.It doesn't matter what the
    topic is-politics,  the laws of physics,  or the proper way to break an egg-the point of these arguments is
    to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong,  for both wish to be considered an
    authority-someone who actually knows something-and therefore to command respect.Unfortunately,  as
    long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other,  they'll continue to fight
    these battles forever and never make any real progress.
