    The decision isn’t difficult when I consider the   38    that being a part of a team brings me— and not just any team,   39  my team. I love basketball and my teammates. When I think about that, my view from the bench really isn’t so bad    40   .

    The home of the future won’t be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today. But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams. No two homes will be the same. People will be able to buy “house kits” containing a basic house structure, with movable walls, doors and windows. They will put together the different parts to create the home they want.
    Many jobs that we do today will disappear, others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created. Skilled workers such as builders, gardeners and electricians won’t disappear because machines can’t replace them. Teachers will still exist because students need human contact. But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more from home. The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today.
    Space holidays will develop in the future, but these holidays won’t be for everyone because they won’t be cheap. Short space trips will develop first, then space hotels will orbit the earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation. By the end of the next century, there will be holiday centres on the moon with leisure facilities for families.
    Paper won’t exist in the future. Instead, there will be e-paper which people will be able to use over and over again. This will develop in order to save natural resources. E-newspapers and e-magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reuseable paper.
    The laws of physics tell us that the earth is going to disappear some time in the future. This isn’t going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes（爆炸）.We will have to explore the universe and find another home. At some point in the distant future, either we stay on the earth and die with it, or we leave and move to another planet. There won’t be any other choice.
    60．Homes of the future will ________.
    A．be completely different from those of today.
    B．be very similar to our homes
    C．all be different form one another                 
    D．be movable as you want
    61．Space trips and staying in space hotels will _________.
    A．become a very common way to spend a holiday
    B．be the cheapest holiday option for families
    C．attract a lot of people
    D．still only be for very rich people
    62．E-paper will replace traditional paper because _________.
    A．we will use it again  B．it won’t waste natural resource
    C．it will be cheaper to produce   D．it will be convenient to carry
    63．We will have move to another planet ________.
    A．if we want to save the human race  B．when the sun explodes
    C．when the earth disappears       D．when the earth is too crowded to fill people on

    Amelia Earhart's (1897-1937) childhood was not the typical girl’s. She liked nothing better than to explore the banks of the Missouri River, where she climbed trees and hunted rats with her rifle (步枪). She also built her own roller coaster(过山车 ).
    The exciting life of the American aviation (航空)pioneer is dramatized in the movie Amelia, which is due to come out on October 23.
    After Earhart paid a pilot $1 to take her up for a short fly in his plane, aviation became her love and career.
    As she later explained, “Never do things others can do and will do, if there are things others cannot do or will not do.”
    Earhart found herself a flying teacher and started to learn to fly. She took all sorts of jobs to pay for the lessons and to buy a second-hand plane on her 24th birthday.
    In 1932, Earhart flew solo across the Atlantic. She became the first woman to make the solo crossing. She also made a flying suit for women and went on to design other clothes for women who led active lives. “Now and then women should do for themselves what men have already done —— occasionally what men have not done ——thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action.” she said.
    When she was nearly 40, Earhart was ready for a final challenge—to be the first woman to fly around the world. However, in mid-flight, she and her navigator (导航员) disappeared in bad weather.
    Earhart will be forever remembered as a brave pioneer for both aviation and for women.
    59. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
    A. A movie about Earhart’s exciting life has come out.
    B. Earhart never did things others could and would do.
    C. Earhart’s love for aviation came after she flew a plane for a short time.
    D. In Earhart's opinion, women should think and act more independently.
    60. The underlined word in paragraph 2 means ____.
    A. presented           B. adopted            C. published          D. created
    61. From the passage we can know that ____.
    A. Earhart showed most interest in adventure trips to the Missouri River during her
    childhood
    B. Earhart s ambition was to fly across the Atlantic
    C. Earhart challenged herself constantly
    D. Besides flying, Earhart also designed planes and clothes
    62. You can probably find this article in        .

    It doesn't matter when or how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That's what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.
    Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.
    The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition.

    Dear Ralf,
    I have received your letter from school and am glad to know that you are becoming responsible(有责任的)enough to decide on your career.
    You are now in the final year of college and are about to start more independent life in society. You know that a generation divides us, and the conditions of social life were different in my days. However, all I can say as advice is that you must select a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. Your job must be both gainful and satisfying. Then, you must read up on the latest books on the field you are aiming at. Also, you should get familiar with the men and women in the profession of that field. When mind and heart function together, success is inevitable(必然的).
    No career is more or less important than any other career. It takes different people to operate the machine of life. I think your interest may lie in the field of making TV programs. Your great communication skills, your active participation(参与) in school plays and the prizes you have won in speech competitions all point in that direction. So a career in Mass Communication and TV film production proves suitable for you. If you succeed and make it in that field, fame and treasure will both follow.
    Think a thousand times before making any final decision regarding your career. Anyhow, I want you to be a man of success.
    I know that you are mature(成熟的) enough to think for yourself.
    With all the best wishes!
    Your loving father
    56. We can infer that Ralf wrote a letter to ask for advice on how to ________.
    A. prepare for a competition.                         B. communicate with others
    C. choose a career                                         D. get good marks
    57. What can we know about Ralf?
    A. He has graduated from college.               B. He gets on badly with his father.
    C. He has taken part in school plays.           D. He won prizes in the field of making films.
    58. Ralf’s father thinks that ________.
    A. fame is more important than treasure
    B. every career is of the same importance
    C. Ralf is too young to make a decision himself

        The angry locals of an English village blocked the driver of a Google Street View car who was
    filming the neighborhood, saying they feared he world encourage thieves, a report said Friday.
    One local, Paul Jacobs, told the BBC he had warned his neighbors after spotting the car from
    his window in Broughton, Buckinghamshire, southern England, on Wednesday.
    “I don’t have a problem with Google wanting to promote villages. What I have a problem with
    is the invasion （侵犯）of privacy, taking pictures directly into the home,” Jacobs said.
    “We’ve already had three homes broken into locally in the past six weeks. If our houses are
    made noticeable all over Google, it’s an invitation for more criminals to strike. I was determined to
    make a stand, so I called the police.”
    After his call, a police car arrived in Broughton in response to an argument between a crowd of people and a Google Street View contractor.
    “They felt his presence was a threat to their privacy. When police arrived at the scene, the car had moved on,” explained a spokeswoman for Thames Valley Police.
    The Google Street View project, set up last month in Britain, aims to provide detailed 360-degree views online of streets all over Britain.
    The project has already been strongly criticized by associations like Privacy International, a pressure group which has launched legal action against the IT company.
    Google is confident that their new mapping project is within the law.
    “Before launching Street View we sought the guidance and approval of the Information Commissioner’s Office. The ICO has repeatedly made clear that it believes that Street View includes the safeguards necessary to protect people’s privacy,” a Google spokesman said.
    “The Metropolitan Police （in London） told us they saw no significant security risk, that thieves are likely to make use of the opportunities, and that mapping products can be useful in solving and mapping crime in an area.”
    He added: “Engaged in new projects, we sometimes meet unexpected challenges, and Street View has been no exception.”
    41．When the police car arrived at the village,           .
    A．the villagers were angrily arguing with the Google car driver.
    B．the map car was stopped from leaving the village.
    C．The map car had stopped its working and gone on its way.
    D．The map car was surrounded by the angry villagers.
    42．The underlined phrase “make a stand” in Paragraph 4 means       .
    A．stand there all the time whole waiting for the police
    B．show full support to Google’s filming the neighborhood
    C．attempt to defend locals by stopping Google’s filming the neighborhood
    D．stand in the way to stop the car moving on
    43．Which of the following sentences is TRUE?
    A．Google’s mapping project has not been officially approved.
    B．Three homes had been visited by thieves with the help of Google pictures.
    C．The police rushed to stop a fight between locals and Google contractors.
    D．It was not the first time that the Google map project had been criticized.
    44．What’s the best title for the passage?
    A．Google’s Mapping Project Promotes the Neighobrohood.
    B．Angry British Villagers Stop Google Maps Car.
    C．Google Goes On With its Plan to Film the Streets.
    D．New Project Meets Challenges Again.

    As the sound of footsteps behind her grew louder, she quickened her pace. She didn’t want to turn around as the memory of that morning’s newspaper headline made her afraid of what she would see: “City Killer Claims Fourth Victim.”
    “Why did I stop for a few drinks in the bar after work?” she thought to herself. Now it was dark and the streets deserted. She was alone and a sitting duck.
    She felt as if she was walking in the rain. Her clothes were damp from nervous sweat and as each short hot breath hit the night air, it turned to steam, coating her glasses in a thin film so all she saw seemed covered in fog.
    The footsteps were closer now. She needed to get off this street. Her eyes began a useless search for an open store or lighted window. Passing a small lane she looked through, for a possible escape route. But the lane was a dead - end and she laughed to herself at the irony ( 具有讽刺意味的事 ).
    The sound of a car behind her turning onto the street interrupted her self – pity. Escape was at hand. But as she was about to throw herself onto the road and shout for the car to stop, the car’s headlights cast a shadow that paralyzed ( 使瘫痪 ) her with terror.
    It was the footsteps’ owner. The figure was huge and in its raised arm it held what looked like a lead-pipe, no doubt the one that was about to claim victim number five.
    The shadow dissolved as the car passed by and disappeared into the distance. She felt a hand on her shoulder. It was all happening as if in slow – motion. She was waiting for her life to flash before her eyes like all those novels said it would – but it didn’t. The only thing she thought of was her dear husband. She recalled phoning him from work that very afternoon and joking about, of all things, the city killer. It was a night full of ironies.
    There was a voice talking to her now but she was lost in thoughts of her fate and didn’t respond. The hand then began turning her around. It was surprisingly gentle given what was about to come. She allowed it to guide her without resistance ( 抗拒 ).
    She looked up. She recognized the face, but she didn’t know from where. Its mouth was still talking to her but she couldn’t understand. Then she remembered. The face belonged to the foreign looking man who had served her at the bar. She looked down to his hand and saw in it not a lead – pipe but a rolled up copy of a work report she had been correcting in the bar as she drank.
    His words suddenly started to register in her brain and she could hear him. “Miss, Miss. Are you OK? You left this in the bar and it looked important so I thought I’d better give it to you.”
    71. The woman was feeling nervous because        .
    A. she had left her report in the bar
    B. there was a killer in the city
    C. she was being followed by someone
    D. the streets were dark and empty
    72. The underlined expression “a sitting duck” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “        ”.
    A. an easy target              B. a frightened person
    C. a foolish animal            D. a still position
    73. What is the correct order of events that happened to the woman on the day of the story?
    a. She went for a drink in a bar.       b. She corrected the report.
    c. She heard loud footsteps.    d. She read the newspaper.
    e. She called her husband.       f. She felt a hand on her shoulder.
    A. d,c,a,e,b,f    B. c,d,a,e,f,b    C. d,a,b,e,c,f    D. d,e,a,b,c,f
    74. Why did the woman laugh when she looked into the lane?
    A. She was excited because she thought it may be a way to escape.
    B. She felt bitter because she had no chance to escape.
    C. She was becoming more and more nervous.
    D. She realized that she was behaving foolishly.
    75. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
    A. It was raining when she left the bar.
    B. The woman had felt nervous about the city killer for days.
    C. The temperature was very low that evening.
    D. The woman was behaving unreasonably.
