    The most important holiday in spring, especially for Christians, is Easter. This Christian holiday is not on the same date every year，but it’s always on a Sunday. It can be any Sunday between March 22 and April 25. Many people celebrate Easter by buying new clothes. Children celebrate by hunting for colored eggs that their parents have hidden around the house. People also give Easter baskets filled with candy and other goodies to one another to celebrate the day.
    But the holiday is more than new clothes and good things to eat. On Easter, many people go to church to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection（复活）from the dead. Most people color Ester eggs. Some people hide them. Others just eat them. But no matter what one does with Easter eggs，they are an important Easter tradition throughout the Western world. People from many different cultures celebrate Easter. In both America and Belgium, children look for Easter eggs hidden on lawns and in bushes. In America, children believe the eggs are hidden by the Easter bunny (兔子).But in Belgium, the hidden eggs are supposed to have fallen from church bells. In Bulgaria (保加利亚), red Easter eggs are lucky in churches. Bulgarian families also hit these Easter eggs together to see whose is the strongest. The winner looks forward to good fortune that year. Still dozens of other Easter traditions exist. In parts of Austria，for example，children sing from door to door and are rewarded with colorful eggs.

    The bicycle is the common sight in our daily life, as a great many Chinese use one every day. But you may not know its role in strengthening international relations, as it did in the case of US President George W. Bush’s visit to China .
    President Bush arrived in Beijing on November 19, 2005 after he finished the APEC meeting in South Korea.He met with Chinese top leaders and achieved agreements on trade, Taiwan issue and more.
    Although Bush’s trip was short as 40 hours, he managed to spare a moment to do some cycling. On November 20, he rode up and down a steep path at Laoshan Olympic Mountain Bike Course in Beijing’s suburbs.
    Six young Chinese cyclists accompanied the president, who was dressed in a Chinese training uniform with the “Beijing 2008” logo (标志). He did not go along the arranged route and chose a more zigzag(曲折的) hiking path.
    “How do you say, ‘take it easy on the old man’?” Bush joked to his partners before setting out.
    “Compared with my bike path on the Crawford ranch (农场) , this one is greater and really difficult,” said Bush when his 45-minute ride ended. He said he will come to Beijing for the 2008 Olympic Games.
    This is not Bush’s first cycle ride in Beijing. In 1975 at the age of 29, he visited the Chinese capital for the first time, when his father was head of the US liaison office (联络处) in Beijing, which Bush described as “fantastic”.
    However, observers said Bush’s ride is much more than just his favorite pastime. It expressed friendliness with people in China, where the bicycle is an important part of life and culture.
    According to the Washington Post, one of the major newspapers in the US, this was a specially arranged activity by the US Government, for they want to send the Chinese a sign of friendship. “The president is by no means hostile (有敌意的) to China,” it said.
    64. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
    A. Every Chinese has at least one bicycle
    B. The bicycle is the common sight in our daily life
    C. Bicycle can play a role in improving relationship between nations
    D. President George W. Bush is fond of cycling
    65. President George W. Bush went cycling ______.
    A. wearing a T-shirt with the “Beijing 2008” logo
    B. up and down a path on Laoshan Mountain
    C. accompanied by six young Chinese policemen
    D. along a more challenging way without arrangement
    66. Bush said “take it easy on the old man” to his partners probably because ______.
    A. he wanted to make them easy
    B. he wanted to make a joke about them
    C. he wanted to tell them it would be a more zigzag hiking path
    D. he wanted to show them it would be a easy task for an old man
    67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A. Bush’s first cycle ride was in 1975.
    B. Bush’s ride was specially arranged by the Washington Post.
    C. Bush’s ride is more a sign of friendship than just his favorite pastime.
    D. Bush will come to Beijing to take part in the Olympic cycling games in 2008.

    If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.
    It’s good to make mistakes. That’s not a typo, folks, and I have not lost my mind. It is good to make mistakes, and here’s why.
    First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing.  If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? How can you innovate? The simple answer is, “You can’t.” Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.
    Another good thing about mistakes is this, when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how he felt to fail that many times, he remarked that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
    Finally, when you make a mistake you are that much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some finite number of things before you succeeded. Every time you made a mistake you eliminated(消除) one of those things and are one step closer.
    But this all doesn’t mean that you should forge ahead with disregard for the consequences of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that, in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.
    We all have limited resources in the form of time and money, so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so you can learn, modify, and try it again. Only by embracing and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.
    There is an old axiom that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.”
    So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow, And prosper.
    59. Which of the following isn’t suitable for the passage?
    A. Mistakes suggest that people are trying something new.
    B. People can draw lessons from their mistakes.
    C. Mistakes mean that people are getting closer to success.
    D. People can afford to make mistakes as long as they limit them.
    60. The underlined word “typo” means ___________.
    A. printing mistake B. computer error         C. poor handwriting    D. bad typing
    61. It’s good to make mistakes as long as _________.
    A. people use them positively             B. people avoid them quickly
    C. they help people get well               D. they don’t have side effects
    62. What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage as far as mistakes are concerned?
    A. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are unavoidable.
    B. Try your best to make fewer mistakes. They are expensive.
    C. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are beneficial.
    D. The more mistakes you make, the more advances you’ll make.

    Although the weathermen’s forecasts for a month ahead are only little better than guesswork, they are now making long-term forecasts into the next century with growing confidence. The main trend in the world’s climate in the coming years will, scientists say, be a predictable result of man’s activities.
    At the start of the industrial revolution nearly two centuries ago, man set off a big experiment in planetary engineering. Unaware of what he was doing, he spared no thought for the consequences. Today the possible outcome is alarmingly clear, but the experiment is unstoppable. Within the lifetime of many of us, the Earth may become warmer than it has been for a thousand years. By the middle of this century it may be warmer than it has been since the last Ice Age.
    A warmer climate may seem welcome, but it could bring many dangers： damages to crops in the world’s main food-producing areas, famine(饥荒),  economic instability, civil unrest and even war.
    In the much longer term, melting of the great ice-caps of Greenland and Antarctica could raise sea-levels throughout the world. The average sea-level has already risen a foot since the turn of the last century, and if the ice-caps disappear completely, it would rise by nearly 200 feet. Complete melting might take many centuries, but even a small increase in sea-level would threaten low-lying parts of the world such as the Netherlands.
    44. Long-term weather forecasts beyond the year 2050 may seem strange because ____.
    A. none of us will be alive then
    B. weathermen can even forecast next month’s weather correctly
    C. weathermen can forecast much better than they used to
    D. no one can stop engineering experiments
    45. Weathermen believe that our future climate will be the direct result of ____.
    A. the big scientific experiment       B. clever long-term forecasts
    C. the melting of the ice-caps          D. planets changing course
    46. One of the results of a warmer world climate could be ____.
    A. an increase in food production
    B. greater co-operation between countries
    C. the death of millions of people from starvation
    D. a reduction in the amount of oil we use
    47. Scientists are fairly sure that by the year 2050, _______.
    A. the sea-level will have risen obviously
    B. there will have been the Third World War
    C. most countries will have been flooded
    D. the polar ice-caps will have melted completely

    Neatness and personal cleanness have been around for ages and have become an important part of everyone’s daily routine. You might think that all modern societies would have the same neatness and personal cleanness practices. After all, doesn’t everybody take baths? Most people do recognize the need for cleanness, which is the basis for health. Neatness practices include all the little things people do to make themselves look their best, such as combing their hair and putting on makeup. However, while most modern people agree that these things are important, people in different cultures take care of themselves in different ways.
    There used to be an old joke in America that people should take a bath once a week, whether they need one or not. In fact, though, Americans generally take a bath or more commonly, a shower every day. But in contrast to some cultures, most Americans get their shower in the morning so that they can start the day fresh. Americans are known for having very sensitive noses. In America, body smell is socially unacceptable. For that reason, Americans consider it a must to use special lotion (浴液) to prevent the smell. Ladies often add a touch of perfume. Men may spray on after – shave cream or manly – smelling perfume.
    Some of the cultural varieties in neatness practices result from physical differences between races. Whereas many Asian men have little facial hair, Westerners have a lot. As a result, most American men spend some time each day shaving or tidying their facial hair to keep it nice. American women, on the other hand, generally prefer not to be hairy at all.
    　　Americans put great value on both neatness and personal cleanness. For some people, taking care of themselves has become almost a religion. As the old saying goes, “Cleanness is next to godliness.” Whether or not being clean and neat – looking brings one closer to God, it certainly at least brings one closer to others. Americans look down on people who don’t take care of themselves, or who “let themselves go.”
    68．We can infer from the first paragraph that          .
    A．everyone takes baths daily to get a nice look.
    B．people have the same neatness practices today.
    C．neatness practices may be affected by cultures.
    D．neatness means combing hair and doing makeup.
    69．Americans have a bath in the morning to          .
    A．begin an energetic day                                  B．refresh their sensitive noses
    C．prevent their body smell                               D．style their hair at home
    70．According to the author, physical differences between races can cause differences in       .
    A．cultures                   B．locations                  C．religions                   D．neatness practice
    71．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph means “       ”.
    A．care much about themselves                      B．give loose to themselves
    C．stay away from other people                       D．stay closer to other people

    Quickly, the picture comes alive with hyperlinks (超链接), offering the names of the buildings, towers and street features that appear in the photo. The hyperlinks lead to information about the history, services and context of all the features in the photo. You have just hyperlinked your reality.
    That might be a little unbelievable, but the technology exists and is no fevered imagination. This is not a cool small machine invented for the next James Bond movie; this is a working technology just developed by European researchers. It could be coming to a phone near you, and soon.
    This, as the marketing types say, is a game changer. It develops a completely new interface (界面) that combines web-technology with the real world. It is big and fresh, but it goes much further and has much greater influence.
    The development of the system is most outstanding because image recognition technology has long been pregnant with promise, but seemed to suffer from an unending labour.
    Now MOBVIS has not only developed image recognition; it has also developed more applications for the technology; and it has adapted it to the world’s most popular technology: the mobile phone.
    The MOBVIS system completely rewrites the rules for exploration and interaction with your physical environment. The system begins with panoramas (一连串景象). These panoramas form the basis of a city database. It can match buildings, towers, banners and even logos that appear in the panoramas.
    A user simply takes a picture of the street feature, MOBVIS compares the user’s photograph to the panoramas and then identifies the buildings from the picture you take and the relevant links are returned.
    Then you simply click on the links, using a touch-screen phone, and the MOBVIS system will provide information on the history, art, architecture or even the menu, if it is a restaurant, of the building in question.
    67. Which is introduced in the passage?
    A. A new game software.                                                 B. A popular mobile phone.
    C. A cool small machine.                                              D. An image recognition system.
    68. What can we learn about the new technology?
    A. It can only be put into use on mobile phones.
    B. It is a little unbelievable and just a fevered imagination.
    C. It has taken an unending labor to bring the technology into our lives.
    D. It will encourage the users to take more pictures of the street features.
    69. What is the right order of the operation of MOBVIS?
    a. A city database forms in the system.
    b. MOBVIS recognizes the picture and links are returned.
    c. A user touches the links on the phone screen.
    d. A user takes a picture of the street feature.
    e. MOBVIS provides information in question.
    A. a; e; c; d; b;                        B. a; d; b; c; e            C. d; c; e; a; b                    D. c; a; e; b; d
    70. From the passage, we can infer that _______.
    A. MOBVIS has already been widely used all over the world
    B. the writer is trying to promote the sales of the MOBVIS system
    C. this new technology will soon be very popular in our lives
    D. the sales of mobile phones will decrease as MOBVIS comes on market
