Dear Windows Internet Explorer.
Our relationship has been strained(紧张的)for a long time.Of course. it’s not all your fault,and nor is it a11 mine.Our intermediary is also to blame;my hated Gate-way PC. which runs far too slowly. But that does not get you off the hook.
You see,Windows Internet Explorer.I can no longer deal with your ridiculous loading time.Sure,at one time I found it attractive--even--sexy for my browser to take ages to log in or load a web page.But not any more My life is fuller than it was, and I don’t have time for you to semi-load and then stop.
Also.as much as I loved it when we got together, your refusal to log me into some of my necessary accounts.such as email and MySpace.has become a problem. It was unfair of you, and I should not have submitted to your cruelty and mistreatment.
A third reason for my leaving you may seem mean:you are simply far too sickly. You are constantly contracting new viruses.and your immune system is terrible·I don’t have the time or the money to care for you any more. It may seem unfair,but you will have to survive on your own. I cannot keep curing you.going through and finding all your corrupted(损坏的)files,cleansing our intermediary’s system because you have given it some virus,bug or spyware. It takes far too much time and energy,which I do not have.
Windows Internet Explorer,you did wonderful things for me that,at the time,no other could do.But,my dear.times have changed,and while you have,too,you have not changed enough. I am 16 now,nearly a grown woman,and I cannot tolerate your childish ways As much as I once cared about you,I fear that the time has come for us to part.
Your former friend,
Kirsty

The writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.
Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writer’s life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as ‘Would you really marry a woman who works?’ And today it’d be ‘Would you marry one who doesn’t?’ ”
The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump ” .
Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success.

A dam is a man-made structure built across a river. Most dams are built to control a river’s water flow, improve navigation and control flooding. However, some dams are built to produce hydro-electric power.
Hydro-electric power is produced as water passes through a dam, and into a river below. The more water that passes through a dam, the more energy is produced. Once a dam is built, a man-made lake is created behind the dam.
Electricity is produced by a kind of equipment called a turbine(水轮机). Turbines contain metal coils(线圈) surrounded by magnets(磁铁). When the magnets move round rapidly over the metal coils, electricity is produced. Turbines are located inside dams. The falling water makes the magnets go around the coils.
Dams provide clean energy, but they can also harm the environment. Species that use rivers to reproduce are often hurt by dams. In the Northwest of the US, the population of fishes has dropped from 16 million to 2.5 million since hydro-electric plants were built on the Columbia River. Dams all over the world have hurt some species.
The highest dam in the Unites States is located near Oroville, California. The Oroville Dam towers 230 meters and is more than a mile wide. This dam was built in 1968, 22 years after the Hoover Dam. The Hoover Dam, on the Nevada-Arizona border controls the Colorado river. It is 221 meters high and has 2.6 million hectare-meters of water.
The highest dam in the world is the Nurek Dam on the Vakhsh River in Tadzikistan, a country in central Asia. This dam is 300 meters tall.
1.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Some dams are built for controlling a river’s water flow.
B. Hydro-electric power is usually produced through a dam.
C. Dams can offer energy and they are harmless to the environment.
D. Generally speaking, where there is a dam, there is a man-made lake.
2.The third paragraph mainly tells us _____.
A. how hydro-electric power is produced
B. What a turbine is and how it works
C. how the magnets and the metal coils work
D. how the falling water passes through a turbine
3.The dam which controls the Colorado river is ____.
A. the Oroville Dam B. the Hoover Dam
