    Museums have changed.They are no longer places that one “should”go but to enjoy.
    At a science museum in Canada,you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body.At the Children’s Museum in New York,you can play an African drum.There are no “Do Not Touch”sign in some other museums in the USA.
    More and more museum directors have realized that people learn beat when they can become part of what they are seeing.In many science museums,the visitors are encouraged to touch,listen,operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves.
    The purpose is not only to provide fun,but also help people feel at home in the world of science.If people don’t understand science,they will be afraid of it;and if they are afraid of science,they will not make the best use of it.
    One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and spare time.Another cause is the growing number of young people in the population.Many of them are college students or college graduates.They see things in a new and different way.They want art that they can take part in.The same is true of science and history.
    The old museums have been changing and the government is encouraging the building of new,modern museums.In the States and Canada,there are more than 6 000 museums,almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago.
    53.The directors of the museums have realized______.
    A.people learn beat when they look at something.
    B.visitors prefer to learn from museums
    C.people are interested if they take part
    D.the importance of scientific rules

    Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks or your money back”?
    Of course, it never happens quite like that. The only language which is easy to learn is the native tongue. Before the Second World War people usually learnt a foreign language in order to read the literature of the nation. Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year millions of people start learning one. How can they do it?
    Some people try at home, with books or tapes; some use radio or television programs. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, learning it will take a long time. A few people have to learn a language fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is easier to learn a language in the country where it is spoken in everyday life. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not nesessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learnt quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and books will help. But they cannot do the students’ work for them.

    The famous American gorilla（大猩猩） expert Diane Fossey had a completely new way to study gorillas — she pretended to be one of them. She copied their actions and way of life — eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk the way a gorilla does. It was a new relationship.
    Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist. It was a long way from King Kong, which is about a gorilla as a monster （a frightening animal）, and helped to show a new idea: the real monster is man, while the gorilla is to be admired.
    Today there are thought to be around 48,000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400—450 mountain gorillas in the wild. From the Congo in West Africa, to Rwanda and Uganda further east, they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes.
    Some time ago, I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature. It had two photos side by side. One was of a young gorilla. “This is a species of mammal（哺乳类动物）,” said the words below it. “It is being destroyed by man. We must save it for our own good.” The other photo showed a human baby. The words also read, “This is a species of mammal,” but then went on: “It is the most destructive（破坏性的） on earth. We must retrain it for its own good.”
    56．The text mainly talks about _____.
    A. Diane Fossey              B. the gorillas in Rwanda
    C. the protection of the gorillas     D. the film Gorillas in the Mist
    57．We can learn from the text that _____.
    A. Gorillas in the mist was based Fossey’s experiences
    B. Lowland gorillas live longer than mountain gorillas
    C. King Kong showed us that a gorilla is admirable
    D. Diane Fossey was murdered by a gorilla
    58． What message can we get from the two photos in the magazine?
    A. Gorillas are man’s close friends.  
    B. Both man and the gorilla need to be saved.
    C. Young gorillas are as lovely as human babies.
    D. Man should live peacefully with the gorilla.

    Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package. 
    “Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily, “Tony said.” You don’t have any luggage, right?”
    “Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”
    “That’s right, one carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”
    “Thanks.”
    Is Brian a criminal（犯罪）? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick. 
    Every year about 80, 000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone, But if you have very little money, can be flexible（灵活的）about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!
    小题1:Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?
    A．Because they were the uniform for air couriers,
    B．Because that made him easier to be recognized.
    C．Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.
    D．because he did not have any luggage with him.
    小题2:An air courier is a person who        
    A．manages a business company in foreign countries
    B．organizes international flights for tourists
    C．travels around the world with cheap tickets
    D．delivers papers and packages to foreign countries
    小题3:Businesses choose the air-courier service because      
    A．it costs lessB．it is flexibleC．it saves timeD．it grows fast
    小题4:One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air courier is that he
    A．cannot decide when and where to travel
    B．cannot take any luggage with him
    C．has to wear two pairs of jeans
    D．saves little money from the travel
    小题5:The author of the text mainly
    A．describes the activities of a law-breaker
    B．suggests an ideal way to travel
    C．argues against the air-courier travel
    D．tells us about a developing business

    While many modern forms of communication like phone calls, e-mails, and letters, are extremely convenient, in my opinion, nothing beats speaking to another person face to face.
    The first and most obvious advantage that a face-to-face communication has over a letter and
    e-mail is that there is the ability to interactively converse. If the sender of a letter or an email does not write clearly, then much time must be spent in clearing up the misunderstanding. In a face-to-face conversation, misunderstandings are easily dealt with because of the interactive nature of it.
    I would still argue that the face-to-face conversation is better because you can see the other person. Not all communication is verbal; the meaning of much of what we say depends on our body language and the tone of voice. Joking and irony are particularly difficult to express and enjoy without seeing the expression on someone’s face, or watching the movements of their body.
    Finally, if the goal of communication is to maintain or deepen the relationship with someone, the face-to-face communication offers the choice of communication by touch even if we could communicate by the video. Trust and respect between business partners can be established with a firm handshake. No amount of body language can convey the excitement of a high five between friends, and no number of words can communicate the comforting embrace of a loved one. Touch is the first basic method of our human relationship before spoken language, and it is only available when people communicate face to face.
    56. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
    A. How to communicate more effectively.
    B. The importance of using body language in communication
    C. Face-to-face communication, the best way of communicating
    D. Comparison of different communication forms
    57.Which of the following is NOT true in the passage?
    A. A letter or e-mail is always written unclearly.
    B. Business partners can show trust through a firm handshake.
    C. During a conversation, body language is also important.
    D. The face-to-face conversation is a way of communication.
    58.The author’s attitude towards forms of communication is       .
    A.Modern forms of communication like phone calls and e-mails are extremely convenient.
    B. Traditional ways of communication are out of date and should fall into disuse.
    C. Face-to-face communication can only be used among strangers.
    D.Face-to-face communication has advantages over the other ways of communication.
    59. What does the underlined word“maitain”in last paragraph mean?
    A .keep            B. stand          C. destroy             D. reduce
