The city of Rome has passed a new to prevent cruelty to animals. All goldfish bowls are no longer allowed and dog owners must walk their dogs.

This comes after a national law was passed to give prison sentences to people who desert cats or dogs.

“The civilization of a city can be measured by this,” said Monica Carina, the councilor (议员) behind the new law.

“It’s good to do whatever we can for our animals who in exchange for a little love fill our existence with their attention,” she told a Rome newspaper.

The newspaper reported that round bowls don’t give enough oxygen for fish and may make them go blind.

Rome has tried to protect fish more than anywhere else in the world. It stands out for recognizing that fish are interesting animals who deserve(值得) over respect and compassion every bit as much as dogs and cats and other animals,” said Karin Robertson, a director of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Last year a law was passed in Italy that gives people who desert pets big fines (罚款) and prison sentences. Since then local governments have added their own animal protection rules.

The northern city of Turin passed a law in April to give pet owners fines of up to $598 if they do not walk their dogs three times a day.

The new law in Rome also says that owners mustn’t leave their dogs in hot cars or cut their dogs’ tails to make them look lovelies. The law also gives legal recognition to the “cat ladies” who feed homeless cats. The cats live all over the city from ancient ruins to modern office car parks.

36. The new law passed in Rome will ________.

A. help improve fishing environment

B. guarantee better conditions for goldfish

C. stop people from catching goldfish

D. discourage keeping goldfish at home

38. The underlined word “compassion” in Paragraph 6 is the closest in meaning to ________.

A. pity                     B. praise               C. support                  D. popularity

39. People may break the law in Turin if they ________.

A. keep their dogs or cats in cars

B. feed homeless animals in car parks

C. raise their cats near ancient ruins

D. shut their dogs home all day long

That “Monday morning feeling” could be a crushing pain in the chest which leaves you sweating and gasping for breath. Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday morning and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.

The risk of having a heart attack on any given day should be one in seven, but a six-year study helped by researchers at the Free University of Berlin of more than 2,600 Germans showed that the average person had a 20 percent higher chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on any other day.

Working Germans are particularly not protected against attack, with a 33 percent higher risk at the beginning of the working week. Non-workers, by comparison, appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.

A study of 11,000 Italians proved 8a.m on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart, and both studies showed that Sunday is the least stressful day, with fewest heart attacks in both countries.

The finding could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks, according to Dr. Stefan Willich of the Free University. “We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and cholesterol(胆固醇)but we don’t know what actually causes heart attacks, so we can’t give clear advice on how to prevent them.” he said.

Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes a rapid change from sleep to activity and from the relaxing weekend to the pressure of work.

“When people get up, their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal(内分泌)changes in their bodies.” Willich explained. “All these things can have an unfavorable effect on the blood system and increase the risk of a clot(血凝块)which will cause a heart attack.”

“When people return to work after a weekend off, the pace of their life changes. They have a higher workload, more stress, more anger and more physical activities.” said Willich.

1.“Monday morning feeling ”, as this passage shows,        .

A.is not as serious as people thought

B.is the first killer in Germany and Italy

C.is created by researchers in Germany and Italy

D.is harmful to working people in developed countries

2.To protect people from a heart attack, doctors have paid much attention to        .

A.people’s working time                  B.people’s living place

C.people’s lifestyle                      D.people’s nationalities

3.It can be learned from this passage that the heart attack has something to do with all the following EXCEPT         .

A.blood pressure                         B.heart rate

C.hormonal changes                       D.blood type

4.If the researchers give us some advice to avoid Monday morning feeling, what might it be?

A.Improving working conditions              B.Never go to work on Mondays

C.Stay with a doctor on Monday.              D.Get up late on Monday morning

Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy. He was the oldest of five children in his family. His father was a wool weaver. He helped his father with the weaving, but he always wanted to sail the seas.

He didn’t get to school very much, but he learned to read and write Spanish during his travels. He also taught himself Latin because all the geography books were written in Latin. Some people thought he was trying to prove the world was round, but this is not true. He wanted to find a short way to get to the Indies by ship.

He was a Christian and wanted to tell the story of Christ to the people he would find in the far-away lands. He also wanted wealth for himself and for Spain, and he wanted to be famous. He tried for eight years to get King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella to supply him with ships and money.

After many days, the sailors had covered a long distance on the sea and were ready to turn around for home when they saw land, an island Columbus named San Salvador. He thought he had found the Indies and called the people he saw there “Indians”. When they got to Cuba, he thought he was in Japan. The world was a lot larger than he thought.

On Christmas Eve, the Santa Maria was wrecked near Haiti. Columbus built a fort(城堡) and left 40 men to hunt for gold. Then he returned to Spain on the Nina. The people of Spain welcomed him as a hero. He made three more voyages across the ocean. His 13-year-old son, Ferdinand, went with him on the fourth voyage.

Columbus did not become rich as he had hoped. At the end of his life he only had a pension the king and the queen had given him because he was the first to reach the New World.

PART THREE READING COMPREHENSION

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or un­finished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked with A、B、C and D, Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

For new countries joining the European Union, and older ones getting used to their dark red passport, becoming “Europeans” is a bit like marrying a large and strange family.

Europeans have a lot in common but it is their differences, not their similarities, that attract the attention of sociologies and market researchers, and are more interesting

   35% of Germans live alone, but only 9% of Spaniards. Perhaps this explains why Spaniards lead Europe in the habit of going out for a drink.

  The British attend more adult evening classes than anyone else in Europe, and the Belgians least. So it can’t just be the dark evenings. There are no figures on how many Britons go for a drink afterwards. If there were, they might be up at the top with Spain.

  The British think black cats are lucky. Every other European country regards them unlucky.

  The French are the most athletic Europeans. Next come the Dutch. But the Belgians, just over the border, play fewest sports.

  The Germans spend twice as much on heating as the Spaniards. Well, of course they do, it’s colder.

  Dutch husbands do the household shopping a lot more often than Italians or Spaniards.

  The French are the champion public transport commuters(经常往返者)of Europe. If you hate commuting, go and live in the Netherlands, where journeys to work are shorter than anywhere else.

  The amount of direct eye-contact between strangers is three times greater among Spaniards than it is among the British or Swedes. So, sharing a lift is a torture for both the British and the Swedish.

There are exceptions to all these rules. Deal with them in the spirit of my 8-year-old daughter. “If you don’t understand each other’s language, just laugh a lot and eat and point at things.”

1.We can know from this passage that______________.

A.sociologist are most interested in the idea of European Union

B.most European countries are not willing to join the European Union

C.Europeans have more differences than similarities

D.trade opportunities exit in the cultural differences in the European Union

2.If you work and live in Belgium, you will______________.

A. have to change your living places often B. not get used to its cold weather

C. seldom sees people playing sports     D. be invited to go for a drink frequently

3. The underlined sentence means that the British and Swedish _________________.

A. care about their safety most                  B. like to appear gentle and smart

C. hate to look at each other face to face          D. enjoy a richer life than others

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Spain?

A.Spaniards hate direct eye-contact between strangers.

B.Spaniards like to go for a drink after dark.

C.Spaniards spend twice as much on heating as the Germans.

D.In Spain, husbands do more household shopping than those in Italy.

5.In the last paragraph, the author wants to express his idea that ______________.

A.his daughter knows well how to understand foreigners in unfamiliar situations

B.Europeans actually share the same culture even if they have different languages

C.being a European, you will have no living trouble at all in the European Union

D.there are differences between European countries, but don’t take them too seriously
