New York Time—A gunman killed eight people at a mall in Omaha this afternoon and then killed himself, setting off panic among holiday shoppers, the police said.

“The person who we believe to be the shooter has died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds,” Sgt. Teresa Negron of the Omaha Police Department said at televised news. “We have been able to clear the mall,” she said. “We don’t believe we have any other shooters.” The police said that at least five other people had been injured in the shootings.

She did not give the shooter’s identity. “We are still conducting the investigation,” Sergeant Negron said, adding that the city’s mayor, who was out of town, was on his way back to Omaha.

    She said the police received a 911 call from someone inside the Westroads Mall on the west side of Omaha, and shots could be heard in the background. The first police officers arrived at the mall six minutes after the first call, she said, but by then the shootings were over.

    It is reported that the gunman left a suicide note that was found at his home by relatives. A law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity (匿名) said the note indicated that the gunman wanted to “go out in style

The shootings broke the usually banal routine of holiday shopping. The gunman was said by some witnesses to have fired about 20 shots into a crowd. Some customers and workers ran screaming from the mall, while others dived into dressing rooms to hide from the shooter.

   Shoppers and store workers were trapped inside the mall, which has roughly 135 stores. Others streamed out of mall exits with their hands raised. President Bush was in Omaha this morning to deliver a speech, but he had left the city by the time the shootings took place.

Where did the shooting first come out?

A. In a newspaper                     B. On the Internet    

C. In TV news                          D. In a police poster

What do the underlined words “go out in style” probably mean?

A. go out of the mall in particular clothes

B. walk in the mall with everybody focused on

C. go to a socially event by fashionable means

D. stop his life in a impressive way

Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Nobody knows why the shooter did so and nothing was found at his home.

B. The city’s mayor happened not to be in the city when the shooting took place.

C. Police arrived at the mall before the shootings were over and rescued customers.

D. The official who showed what the note mean have no request of his own identity.

We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. There is only one shooter in this event.

B. The shooting created fears among the customers.

C. An important holiday is coming soon.

D. President Bush came here for the shooting.

One warm May day, two eighteen – year – old students from San Francisco State College decided to cool off with a swim at Bakers’ Beach. The two students were named Robert Kogler and Shirley O’Neill. They headed out to sea for a distance of 50 metres. Robert was in front.
“Suddenly, I heard him scream,” Shirley recalls. “I looked round and saw this great grey thing going up in the air. The water seemed to be alive.”Robert screamed again. “It’s a shark! Get out of here!”
An eye – witness, Army Sergeant Leo P. Day was on guard at the nearby army post. He saw exactly what happened next. “I could see this boy struggling with the shark in the water,” he said. “The sea was red with blood. He was shouting and signalling someone to go back, go back. Then I saw the girl. She was swimming towards him. She completely ignored his warning.”Shirley reached Robert, and tried to take his hand.“When I pulled, all I could see was his arm, handing by a thread,” she said.
So she put her arm about Robert’s back, and started to swim towards the shore. She kept praying “Don't’ let it attack again!” That journey to the shore seemed to last for hours. At last, as they neared the shore, a fisherman threw them a line, and pulled them both the rest of the way.The young man had lost a lot of blood, and died two and a half hours later, From the teeth marks, experts identified the attacker as a Great White Shark.For what Sergeant Day called “the greatest exhibition of bravery I have ever seen,” the President of the US gave Shirley a medal for bravery.

Although websites such as Facebook and MySpace experienced rapid growth during the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, some users remain unaware of the fact that the information they post online can come back to haunt them. First, employers can monitor employees who maintain a blog, photo diary, or website. Employers can look for controversial(引起争议的) employee opinions, sensitive information disclosures, or wildly inappropriate conduct. For example, a North Carolina newspaper fired one of its features writers after she created a blog on which she wrote about the strange things of her job and coworkers without signing her real name.

The second unintended use of information from social networking websites is employers who check on prospective employees. A June 11, 2006 New York Times article reported that many companies use search engines and social networking websites such as MySpace, Xanga, and Facebook to conduct background checks on college campuses. Although the use of MySpace or Google to check a student’s background is somewhat unsettling to many undergraduates, the Times noted that the use of Facebook is especially shocking to students who believe that Facebook is limited to current students and recent alum(校友).

Corporate employers are not the only people interested in college students’ lives. The third unintended use of social networking websites is college administrators who monitor the Internet — especially Facebook — for student bad behavior. For example, a college in Boston’s Back Bay expelled (除名) its student Government Association President for joining a Facebook group highly critical of a campus police sergeant. In addition, fifteen students at a state university in North Carolina faced charges in court for underage drinking because of photos that appeared on Facebook.

??? Although more users of websites such as Facebook are becoming aware of the potential dangers of online identities, many regular users still fail to take there basic security precautions(警惕). First, only make your information available to a specific list of individuals whom you approve. Second , regularly search for potentially harmful information about yourself that may have been posted by mistake or by a disgruntled

(不满的)former associate. Thrid, never post obviously offensive material will likely make its way to the wider world. By taking these simple steps, members of the digital world can realize the many benefits of e-community without experiencing some of the damaging unintended consequences.

1.The main purpose of the passage is to _____.

A. explain the growth of the digital world from the view of privacy

B. discuss the risks of the digital world and suggest ways to protect yourself

C. propose steps Facebook, MySpace and Google can take to protect user privacy

D. illustrate(说明) potential unintended uses of private information

2.The writer implies that users should take all of the following actions to protect their online privacy EXCEPT _____.

A. know to whom you make your online information available

B. actively hunt for damaging information posted about you or under your name

C. speak with employers to inform them of any misinformation published about you

D. avoid uploading information that would be extremely damaging if it were discovered

3.According to the passage, which of the following does the author imply?

A. Information obtained unwillingly from the Internet is permitted in court.

B. It is impossible to protect yourself from unintended uses of information online.

C. Even if you restrict who can view your data, the government may still access it.

D. Done properly, posting offensive information about oneself brings no risk.

4.In the last paragraph the author mainly _____.

A. offers detailed examples to support previous viewpoints

B. further explores the ill-effects of the Internet on the protection of privacy

C. summarizes the points of the above paragraphs

D. provides suggestions to overcome the previously mentioned problems

Rock and roll music developed in the United States in the early nineteen-fifties. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.

Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960’s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from England invaded America: the Beatles.

Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group before them.

The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” It was one of the first “concept” albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea.

The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from England to become popular in America. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960’s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs, “Satisfaction”.

The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960’s. His “Purple Haze” was liked by many people.

By the 1970’s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, and heavy metal rock. Punk rock, jazz rock, and glitter rock.

In the middle 1970’s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album “Born to Run”. Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early nineteen-sixties. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam.

1.The main topic of this passage is _______.

A. the history of American music

B. the famous rock and roll groups 

C. the new forms of rock and roll music

D. the development of rock and roll music

2.Which of the following matches is NOT true?

A. the Beatles — Chuck Berry     

B. the Rolling Stones — Satisfaction

C. Jimi Hendrix — Purple Haze 

D. Bruce Springsteen — Born to Run

3.Whose songs were mainly about social problems like unemployment and war?

A. Elvis Presley’s.                                  B. Bob Dylan’s.

C. Jimi Hendrix’s.                          D. Springsteen’s.

4.From the passage, we can know that _______.

A. one of the Rolling Stones’ albums was called “concept”

B. rock and roll music had many different forms at the beginning

C. rock and roll music probably came from African American music

D. the Beatles and the Rolling Stones became popular at the same time
