         SYDNEY: As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999, Shane Gould and Jessicah
    Schipper were simply getting along well, chatting about sport, life and " anything else that came up."
         Yet in Sydney next month, they will meet again by the pool, and for a short time the friends will race
    against each other in the 50-meter butterfly (蝶泳) in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay.
         Gould, now a 47-year-old mother of four, has announced she will be making a return to elite
    competition (顶级赛事) to swim the one event, having set a qualifying (合格的) time of 30.32 seconds
    in winning gold at last year's United States Masters championships. Her comeback comes 32 years after

         Jan. 7, 2008 — French President Nicolas Sarkozy would marry his girl friend, former supermodel 
    Carla Bruni on Feb. 8 or 9, media reported Monday.
         The report said that in December — less than a month after Sarkozy met Bruni — he gave her a
     heart-shaped diamond engagement ring.
         Carla Bruni, Italian singer, former model and girlfriend of France's President Nicolas Sarkozy, holds
     the hand of her son Aurelien while wearing a pink heart-shaped ring during a visit to the ancient 
    Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008. French newspapers reported that Sarkozy would marry her early
     in February.
         Sarkozy and his wife of 11 years, Cecilia, divorced (离婚) in October. Their marital (婚姻) problems became well known in May 2005 when she appeared in public at the side of event organizer Richard 
    Attias.
         A marriage to Bruni, a one-time star of the catwalks who is now a singer, would be Sarkozy's third: 
    He divorced his first wife, Marie, in the late 80s — after he had met and befriended Cecilia. Political
     analyst Dominique Moisi said that a Sarkozy proposal to Bruni could be part of his desire to head off 
    any future arguments, and the speed of their visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008 
    would fit with his personality as a busy man in a hurry.
         "Apparently, he's going to marry her, so the problem will be behind him," Moisi said. "He will increase
     the opportunities to travel with her, and to say to the French, 'You see, I must remarry ... You need a
     first lady.' "
         Bruni, an Italian-born French citizen, has dated famous men including Mick Jagger and Donald Trump. She has also reportedly been linked to singer Eric Clapton and actor Vincent Perez.
    1. Sarkozy's second marriage was held _____.
    A. in 1996 
    B. in May 2005
    C. once he divorced Marie 
    D. 11 years later than the first
    2. What is the correct order of Sarkozy's marital history?    
    a.Long marriage to Cecilia.
    b. Visiting ruins with Bruni
    c. Getting divorced from Marie
    d. Giving Bruni a diamond ring
    e. To marry the former supermodel    
    A. c-a-b-d-e
    B. e-d-c-a-b
    C. c-a-d-b-e
    D. a-c-d-b-e
    3. The possible purpose of the last paragraph is _____. 
    A. to provide some unknown stories about Bruni's love affairs     
    B. to show uncertainty about the former supermodel's loyalty    
    C. to imply that past experiences have little effect on a person    
    D. to prove Bruni one of the most popular and attractive females
    4. Which would be the best title for the news? 
    A.  Bruni, France's first lady 
    B. A third marriage to fail 
    C. France to have first lady

         Wen's Tsinghua tour marked his yearly visit to university campuses since 2003 ahead of the Chinese
    Youth Day, which falls on Monday this year.
         In more than one hour's time, Wen listened to the students' stories and gave his advices on their future
    development, encouraging them to"be resolute-minded, hard working and down-to-earth to achieve your
    goals."
         Sui Shaochun, a mechanics students, said he had landed a job in an aeroplane manufacturing company

                                                  Special Bridges Help Animals Cross the Road 
                                                                --Reported by Sheila Carrick
         Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
         Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the
    grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.
         "Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads," the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact,
    only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.
         "Ecopassages" may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and
    under roads. "These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents," said
    Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.
         But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona
    University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed
    that the lions used the passage.
         Builders of ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around
    them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders and grizzly bears are using the
    bridges and underpasses.
         The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an
    animals overpass!
    1. The writer uses the example of "ocelots" to show that ______.
    A. wild animals have become more dangerous
    B. the driving conditions have improved greatly
    C. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work
    D. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents animals on ecopassages
    2. From the news story, we know an ecopassage is ______.
    A. an underground path for cars
    B. a fence built for the safety of the area
    C. a bridge for animals to get over a river
    D. a pass for animals to cross the road
    3. When the writer says that animals seem "to be catching on", he means ______.
    A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road
    B. animals begin to learn to use ecopassages
    C. animals are crossing the road in groups
    D. animals are increasing in number
    4. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because ______.
    A. wild animals may attack cars
    B. wild animals may jam the road
    C. they may see wild animals in the park
    D. they may see wild

         Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer
    interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
         Recently, two researchers, Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne,
    Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts.
         In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right band. He
    could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
         "Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to
    give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals
    from reaching the muscles," Tavella says. "Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external
    world and also to control devices."
         The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp
    (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized
    wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react
    to commands from the brain.
         Prof. Milan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain
    signals and turns them into simple commands. "The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled
    people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this
    wheelchair."
         He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology
    they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of
    time.
    1. BCI is a technology that can _____.
    A. help to update computer systems
    B. link the human brain with computers
    C. help the disabled to recover
    D. control a person's thoughts
    2. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
    A. By controlling his muscles.
    B. By talking to the machine.
    C. By moving his hand.
    D. By using his mind.
    3. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
    A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair
    B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
    C. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair
    D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
    4. The team will test with real patients to _____.
    A. make profits from them
    B. prove the technology useful to them
    C. make them live longer
    D. learn about their physical condition
    5. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
    A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
    B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
    C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
    D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries
