    There was a park near my home. But I didn’t go there very often. Many people said there was nothing special. One afternoon I went into the park and found it was really small. I walked quickly because there wasn’t much to see. I walked for some time and found myself standing in front of two paths. 71  I found that the two paths were different from each other.
    The left one was wide and clean. There were lots of flowers on both sides of the path. Though the flowers weren’t very beautiful, they made me feel good. I decided to take this path. But wait! I looked at the right one. The path didn’t look nice.  72  Grass grew everywhere. For a long time I couldn’t make up my mind.
      73  It wasn’t nice , but I didn’t want to give up. At last, I came to the end of the path. Ah! There was a small garden there. It was beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful garden I had ever seen.  74  
    Many people told me that there was nothing much to see in the park. Now I’d like to tell them that if they had followed the right way, they would have felt differently. But when I told them about what I had seen in the park, they just smiled at me without saying a word. I knew they didn’t believe me. They couldn’t even remember that path because it was so small.
      75  Don’t be afraid to choose a different path. You may get a big surprise!
    A．There is nothing that I want to see.
    B．It looked like it had not been cleaned for months.
    C．After a while a strange feeling made me follow the dirty path.
    D．“ Which way should I go?” I asked myself. I looked at one way, then the other.
    E. I told them what happened.
    F. My trip to the park that day made me understand something about life.
    G. There were trees, flowers and chairs. I thought it was the nicest part of the park.

    In the past, people who graduated from college felt proud of their academic (学业的) achievements and felt confident that their degree would help them to find a good job.
    However, in the past five years the job market has changed greatly. This year’s college graduates are facing one of the worst job markets. For example, Ryan Stewart, a graduate of San Jose State University, got a degree in religious studies, but no job prospects. He points out that many people already working are getting laid off and don’t have jobs, so it’s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.
    Five years ago, the future looked bright for the class of 2006. There were many high-tech job chances. Graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as insurance (保险) and paid vacations. However, "Times have changed and it's a new market," according to an officer of the San Jose State Career Center.
    The officer says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several short-time jobs, and they’ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot, like chemical engineering, accounting, or nursing, where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like information system management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines (下降) in starting salaries.
    Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may go back to school in order to become a college teacher. He thinks college teaching could be a good career even in a bad economy.
    In conclusion, these days a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth for some students. For now, they can only hope the value of their degree will increase over time.
    小题1:The underlined word in the second paragraph probably means _____.
    A．skillsB．interestsC．chancesD．ideas
    小题2:Which of the following majors has the best job offers?
    A．teachingB．accounting
    C．political scienceD．computer science
    小题3: Ryan Stewart will have to ____________.
    A．go back to schoolB．get a job teaching
    C．change his majorD．become a religious leader
    小题4:The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means ____________.
    A．the best way to get rich is not to get a college degree
    B．most students with degrees will not be able to find jobs
    C．having a college degree does not mean that one has money for travelling
    D．a college degree does not mean that one will find a well-paid job
    小题5: The main idea of the passage is that _________.
    A．a lot of graduates are losing their jobs
    B．Ryan Stewart has been able to find a job
    C．salaries in some fields have increased in the past year
    D．the job market has changed greatly over the past five years

     In the eyes of dog lovers, the dog is man’s best friend. But for much wildlife, loose dogs may be a dangerous enemy, according to a study by a biologist from Utah State University in the US.
    Based on much existing research and their own case studies, Julie Young of Utah State University and four other scientists conclude that loose dogs may represent a huge danger to wildlife, especially endangered species, by hunting down or worrying them and by spreading diseases. They also found that dogs, their worldwide numbers around 500 million, can cause more damage to wildlife and livestock(牲畜) than wolves and other enemies of these animals.
    Young gave examples from the US state of Idaho, where research showed the presence of dogs reducing some deer populations. On the Navajo American Indians’ reservation in northeastern Arizona, packs of loose dogs are chasing livestock. They have killed populations of small animals such as rabbits and act as a disease carrier for rabies(狂犬病) among people and other animals, she said. Loose dogs also were to blame for distemper outbreak leading to a die-off of endangered black-footed ferrets in northwestern Wyoming in the 1980s.
    The phenomenon is not just limited to US; it’s a global problen. Julie Young once studied three endangered species in central Asia: wild sheep, gazelles and antelope. The rate of injury and death to these animals by loose dogs was very high. In another case, Young found that dogs, not wolves, as originally suspected, were responsible for a large number of livestock killings in the mountainous Basque country between Spain and France.
    Authors of the new study said the problem is likely to worsen as communities expand. Then how to deal with it?
    Indeed, in many countries, leash(拴狗的皮带) laws permit punishment of dog owners whose pets chase wildlife. But lawbreakers are rarely punished because the police lack both people and money.
    Young has low-cost solutions to the problem for dog lovers, though. They include public dog-training programs and vaccinating (预防接种) dogs against rabies and other illnesses.
    小题1:. What is the main point of Julie Young’s study?
    A．Many species are endangered because they are killed by loose dogs.
    B．Wild dogs are immune to many diseases.
    C．Wolves are still the greatest enemy of livestock.
    D．Loose dogs pose a great danger to wildlife.
    小题2:. Which of the following statements about loose dogs is TRUE according to the research?
    A．There are around 500 million loose dogs around the world.
    B．The black-footed ferrets in northwestern Wyoming were once the main food source of local loose dogs.
    C．The problem caused by loose dogs is the most serious in the US.
    D．People used to think that wolves, rather than loose dogs killed livestock in the Basque country.
    小题3:. Which of the following is among Julie Young’s solutions to the trouble caused by loose dogs?
    A．More strict leash laws
    B．Public dog-training programs.
    C．Vaccinating people against rabies and other illnesses.
    D．More support from the police.
    小题4:. What is the main point of the article?
    A．A global disaster caused by loose dogs.
    B．What makes the dog man’s greatest friend.
    C．The problem of loose dogs and the possible solutions.
    D．The danger of the increasing numbers of dogs.

    Most of us use the telephone several times a day to talk with friends or make social arrangements(安排). These calls are usually quite easy and require little planning.
    Using the telephone for business purpose is different. In any organization the person on the telephone represents the company and gives an impression of the firm to the outside world.
    If you want to ensure good public relations, you need to master effective telephone techniques.
    You should try to give an impression of an efficient, friendly, progressive company eager to give good service.
    Before calling
    Choose the right time. Consider the cost, urgency and convenience. When calling overseas, you need to consider the time difference.
    Check the number. A great deal of money is wasted each year on dialing wrong numbers.
    Plan your call. Make a list of points and questions to be raised.
    Be prepared. Gather any files, papers or information that may be needed during the call. It is unprofessional to have to say “Hold on while I look for that.”
    If you have to ask a caller to hold on, keep going back and assuring him/her that you will be as quick as possible.
    Avoid interruptions. Call at a time when you are unlikely to be distracted(分心).
    During the call
    Be courteous, polite. Make time for suitable greetings like “How are you today, Jim?” and “Did you enjoy your holiday”?
    Put a smile in your voice. Remember, your caller can not see you, so use intonation to good effect and try to sound confident, decisive, helpful, and interested.
    Check your notes. Look back at your notes to ensure that you have covered everything and quote figures and other data correctly.
    Get feedback. Make sure the caller understands the message correctly, especially deadlines and actions that are involved.
    Be courteous. Finish by thanking the caller for his or her time and trouble.
    After the call
    Make notes. Let it become a habit to make notes of the call and place them in an appropriate file.
    Take actions. If you need to send a letter of confirmation or inform someone in your organization about any details of the call, do it immediately so that you do not forget important points.
    小题1: Before calling, you have to _____.
    A．stay at your company onlyB．learn important data and figures by heart
    C．get things ready for the communicationD．choose the right time and place
    小题2: During the call, it is unsuitable to _____.

                  Four common bad habits combined—smoking, drinking too much, inactivity and poor diet—can age you by 12 years, sobering new research suggests.
    The findings are from a study that tracked nearly 5,000 British adults for 20 years, and they highlight yet another reason to adopt a healthier lifestyle.
    Overall, 300 people studied had all four unhealthy behaviors. Among them, 90 died during the study, or 30 percent. Among the 400 healthiest people with none of the four habits, 8 percent of them died.
    The risky behaviors were: smoking tobacco; downing more than three alcoholic drinks per day for men and more than two daily for women; getting less than two hours of physical activity per week; and eating fruits and vegetables fewer than three times daily.
    These habits combined substantially increased the risk of death and made people who engaged in them seem 12 years older than people in the healthiest group, said lead researcher Elisabeth Kvaavik of the University of Oslo.
    The healthiest group included never-smokers and those who had quit; teetotalers, women who had fewer than two drinks daily and men who had fewer than three; those who got at least two hours of physical activity weekly; and those who ate fruits and vegetables at least three times daily.
    "You don't need to be extreme" to be in the healthy category, Kvaavik said. "These behaviors add up, so together it's quite good. It should be possible for most people to manage to do it."
    The US government generally recommends at least 4 cups of fruits or vegetables daily for adults, depending on age and activity level, and about 2 hours of exercise weekly．
    小题1:What problem may you have, if you smoke often and eat few fruits and vegetables?
    A．You would have difficulty in walking．B．You would feel tired, lack of energy．
    C．You may look older than you really are．D．You may face the risk of death of cancer．
    小题2:How many of the 400 healthiest people with none of the four habits died?
    A．32.B．24．C．56．D．120．
    小题3:What does this text mainly talk about?
    A．Suggestions to smokers．B．The results of four bad life habits．
    C．The findings of a new research．D．The recommends from the US government.

    Maybe you have ever seen a cross. A cross can be a piece of jewelry or an image in
    a painting. But do you know the cross is a very popular symbol for Christmas？
    It came from the story of Jesus’ death on the cross two thousand years ago in Jerusalem. Jesus was Jewish，and at that time Jewish people were under Roman rule. Jesus was badly punished because he declared to be the Son of God and the King of Jews. Surely，the Son of God could have saved himself from the death！But the Bible says that Jesus had a reason to die that day. It was in God’s purpose that it would happen.
    Christians call the day that Jesus died “Good Friday”.At first，it is hard to understand how a terrible day could ever be called good. Well，the story does not end there. Jesus died and he was buried. But three days later，Jesus was alive，and the whole world was changed.
    Today，Christians everywhere remember this important time. They celebrate Easter. Easter is the day that Jesus rose from the dead. After his death on the cross，Jesus’ body was placed in a tomb. On the third day from then，God raised him from the dead. Jesus stayed on earth physically for several weeks. Many people saw him. Easter is the happiest time of year for Christians because they believe that Jesus had victory over death and evil and that now he lives with God the Father in heaven. But before celebrating Easter， Good Friday should be remembered. Jesus died a horrible and painful death. He suffered, though he did noting wrong. Christian believe that Jesus was God’s substitute(代表) for humans， because humans all do wrong. He died because of humans and he died for humans.
    Christians often wear crossed around their necks of hang them in their homes because they believe it is a very important sign. The cross helps them remember how much God loves them. It helps them remember how much his Son had to suffer. Seeing a cross always makes them think of Jesus’ death， and what it means.

    小题3:In Christians’ belief， for what reason did God want Jesus to die？
