    It ________ time to solve the racial and religious problem in Iraq．Don’t expect to ________ just a few weeks or months in making peace between different religious beliefs．

    [　　]
    A．

    costs; take

    B．

    takes; spend

    C．

    spends; cost

    D．

    costs; take

    答案：B
    解析：

    本题考查动词take, spend, cost表示“花费”时的区别。spend用人作主语，常与in和on连用，句型为spend time/money on sth．/(in)doing sth．；cost只能用物作主语；take常用it作形式主语，句型为：It takes sb．some time to do sth．。所以本题的前面用take，后面用spend，答案为B项。

    Is it time to kick Russia out of the BRICs （金砖四国）? If so, it may end up sounding like a famous ball-point pen maker-BIC. An argument is being made that Goldman Sach’s famous marketing device（策略）,the BRICs, should really be the BICs.

    “Is Russia really worth the name BRICs?” asks Anders Aslund, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, in an article for Foreigh Policy. Aslund, who is also co-author with Andrew Kuchins of “The Russian Balance Sheet”, thinks the Russia of Putin and Medvedev is just not worthy of inclusion alongside Brazil, India and China in the list of future economic powerhouses. He writes:

    “The country’s economic performance has fallen to such a weak level that one must ask whether it has any say at all on the global economy, compared with the other members of its group. I have just returned from Moscow, which is always dull around this season. For the last seven years, Russia has taken very few measures to improve its economy. Instead, the state has been living on oil and gas. ”

    Economically, Aslund has the numbers on his side. The International Monetary Fund figures that the Russian economy will fall by 6.7 percent in 2009, while China will grow 8.5 percent and India 5.4 percent. There is less of a case for Brazil, with a fall of 0.7 percent, but it is still doing

    far better than Russia.

    But the BRICs are not just about economy. As is mentioned above, it is a marketing device to encourage investors to focus on the big promising players. From an investment standpoint, it could be argued that Russia is leading the BRICs. Its stock（股票）market is up 128 percent this year while around 80 percent is for the other three.

    At very least, however, Russia’s economic underperformance and stock market outperfoumance does suggest it is indeed one of the group.

    According to the passage, which country will enjoy the biggest increase in 2009?

           A．China.      B．Russia.     C．Brazil.      D．India.

    According to Aslund, Russia shouldn’t be a BRIC partly because_______.

           A．Russia’s economic performance is far worse than the other three

           B．Russia’s leaders are not good at managing economy

           C．Russia has taken effective measures to improve its economy

           D．Russia will no longer attract investors from other countries

    From the passage we know that ________.

          A．Anders Aslund is working for the Russian government

           B．Russia outperfoumed the other three countries in stock market

           C．most people disagree Russia is included in BRICs

           D．the BRICs would end up being the BICs sooner or later

    The author seems to ________.

           A．suggest it’s time to kick Russia out of the BRICs?

           B．feel worried about the economy of the BRICs

           C．think Russia is worth being one of the group

           D．show disappointment to Russia’s economy

    IS IT TIME TO GET MP3?

    Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC (personal computer) if they’re in the MP3 format.

    What is it?

    MP3 compresses music into small computer friendly files. You access MP3 music several ways : Music can be downloaded from websites that have converted vast music libraries into MP3. Or you can prerecord CDs into your PC and convert songs in minutes into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer’s speakers, “burn” it onto blank CDs or exchange MP3 files with friends using E-mail.

    How much?

    Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free. It comes preinstalled on most new computers or can be downloaded from many websites, including MP3. com. Some MP3 sites are free. Just type “MP3 sites” into any search engine. The popular MP3 players start at around $50and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.

    Advantages

    MP3 turns your home PC into a tape recorder. Tiny MP3 players are the size of a card, making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.

    Disadvantages

    You may find that music at many sites is limited. And some only allow you to listen rather than download offerings. Others let you download music that then can’t be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.

    With large and small keyboards everywhere, neither children nor adults need to write much of anything by hand. That’s a big problem. Study after study suggests that handwriting is important for brain development — helping kids get fine motor skills and learn to express and create ideas. Yet the time devoted to teaching penmanship in most schools has shrunk to just one hour a week. Is it time to give up handwriting? Have a look at the link between the brain and penmanship, and you may get the answer.

        A test among students in grades 2, 4 and 6 found that they not only wrote faster by hand than by keyboard, but also created more ideas when composing essays with handwriting. And other research shows that the finger movements required to write by hand activate brain areas involved with thought, language, and short-term memory.

      A recent Indiana University study had one group of children practice writing letters by hand while a second group just looked at those letters. Then, both groups of kids entered a functional MRI (核磁共振)that scanned their brains as the researchers showed them the same letters. Researchers found that the brain activity in the first group was far more advanced and “adult-like”.

      Handwriting also affects other people’s way they think of adults and children. Several studies have shown that the same average essay will score much higher if written with good penmanship and much lower if written out in poor handwriting. These studies have also found that people judge the quality of a person’s ideas based on his or her handwriting. And the consequences are real: On standardized tests with handwritten sections, like the SAT, all essay that is considered hard to recognize gets a big zero.

      Studies show that this isn’t only an English-language phenomenon. Chinese and Japanese youths are suffering from “character amnesia”. They can’t remember how to write characters, thanks to computers and text messaging. Some experts fear that Chinese writing and reading are so closely linked in the brain that China’s reading ability as a nation could suffer.

     What does the Indiana University study imply?

    A. Children should practice writing letters           

    B. Handwriting can increase brain activity

    C. It’s good for children to enter a functional MRI.   

    D. Letters should often be shown to children

    A. Handwriting affects both adults and children.

    B. Handwriting helps a person write better essays.

    C.SAT should be done with good handwriting.     

    D. Good handwriting makes a person seem smarter.

    3..

     Which of the following statements is TRUE?

       A. Essays written with keyboards will get lower scores.

    B. The quality of your ideas depends on your handwriting.

    C. Chinese and Japanese youths don’t know how to write.

    D. Less handwriting may affect China’s reading ability.

    4..

     The passage tries to tell us that __________________.

    A. keyboards are more popular than handwriting     

    B. we shouldn’t judge people by their handwriting

    C. handwriting is of great importance
