    The True Story of Treasure Island
    It was always thought that Treasure Island was the product of Robert Louis Stevenson’s imagination.  ___36___，recent research has found the true story of this exciting work.
    Stevenson, a Scotsman, had lived    37    for many years in 1881 he returned to Scotland for a    38    . With him were his American wife Fanny and his son    39     .
    Each morning Stevenson would take them out for a long    40    over the hills. They had been   41    this for several days before the weather suddenly took a turn for the worse, Kept indoors by the heavy rain. Lloyd felt the days    42    . To keep the boy happy Robert asked the boy to do some   43   .
    One morning, the boy came to Robert with a beautiful map of an island. Robert   44   that the boy had drawn a large cross in the middle of   45   . “What’s that?” he asked “That’s the    46   treasure “said the boy Robert suddenly  47   something of an adventure story in the boy’s   48   While the rain was pouring, Robert sat down by the fire to write a story. He would make the   49    a twelve-year-old boy just like Lloyd.  But who would he the pirate（海盗）?

    A device that stops drivers form falling asleep at the wheel is about to undergo testing at Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months.
    The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20% - 40% that are caused by tiredness. Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to fatigue.
    Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband. The device, worn by drivers or pilots, gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel (方向盘). A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound the driver’s response.
    Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time. Usually, a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond, but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.
    In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the driver’s response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.
    The device has been delivered to the department’s laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months’ time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.
    小题1:According to the text, Driver Alert ______.
    A．aims to reduce tiredness-related accidents
    B．has gone through testing at laboratories
    C．aims to prevent drivers form sleeping
    D．has been on sale for 12 months
    小题2:How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert?
    A．By sounding a warning.B．By touching the wristband.
    C．By checking the driving time.D．By pressing the steering wheel.
    小题3:We can learn form the text that the driver needs to stop for a break when his response time is ______.
    A．about 400 millisecondsB．below 500 milliseconds
    C．over 500 millisecondsD．about 4 minutes
    小题4:     When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert ______.
    A．moves more regularlyB．stops working properly
    C．opens the window for the driverD．sounds more frequently and loudly

    Want to take an out-of-this-world trip? Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic plans to make that possible. Beginning in 2009, people should have the opportunity to become space tourists, traveling at about 3,000 mph to heights about 75 miles above Earth. Branson has high hopes for his latest plans. "It is just the start of what we believe will be a new age in the history of mankind—one day making the affordable exploration of space by human beings a real possibility," he said.  
    At the start, though, the trip won’t be cheap. Seats aboard Virgin’s first craft—VSS Enterprise—will cost about $200,000. Prices could drop after the first hundred space flights. Despite the current ticket cost, more than 30,000 people—including celebrities(名人) Sigourney Weaver and Victoria Principal—have expressed interest in getting onboard.  
    People who don't have an extra $200,000 still have a chance to get a seat aboard the craft. A computer game contest and a reality television show are in the works. Those who can’t afford a ticket will have an opportunity to win a seat.   
    Virgin is expected to be the first commercial spacecraft. It will hold six passengers and two pilots. Passengers will be able to see the Earth from many different viewpoints. The cabin will include 15 floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing for views that extend about 1,000 miles in any direction.
    Passengers will have three days of preflight preparation. On the big day, the spacecraft will take off from the Mojave Spaceport in the California desert. The craft will rocket passengers into space at four times the speed of sound. The journey will last about 2 1/2 hours. Passengers will wear spacesuits and helmets(头盔). They will be able to float around the cabin and do somersaults(空翻) during the five minutes of weightlessness they will experience in zero gravity. At the end of the flight, the craft will land on a runway.
    小题1:Virgin Galactic could be _____.
    A．the engineer of the first commercial spacecraft
    B．the name of a series of spacecrafts
    C．the company of the first commercial spacecraft
    D．a passenger aboard the first commercial spacecraft
    小题2:The space passengers will do all the following except that _____.
    A．they will receive a three-day training course
    B．they will wear spacesuits and helmets
    C．they will take about $200,000 with them
    D．they will experience weightlessness
    小题3:Which statement is true according to the passage?
    A．More than 30,000 people have got to travel in spacecraft.
    B．Many people signed up for space travel in spite of the high ticket cost.
    C．Those without much money could also go space travel without occupying the seats.
    D．The first commercial spacecraft will have six persons on board.
    小题4:What is the text mainly about?
    A．The exciting moment of the spacecraft’s launching.
    B．The living condition of space tourists in the craft.
    C．Preparations for a space travel.
    D．Plans for the first commercial space flight.

    The volcano is one of the most surprising frightening things of nature. Maybe you have seen pic­tures of these " fireworks " of nature. Sometimes when a volcano erupts, a very large wall of melted rock moves down the side of a mountain. It looks like a " river of fire". Sometimes volcanoes ex­plode, throwing the melted rock and ashes high into the air. But where does this melted rock come from?
    The earth is made up of many layers (层). The top layer that we see is called the crust. Under the crust are many layers of hard rock. But far, far beneath the crust the rock is so hot that it is soft. In some places it even melts. The melted rock is called magma. Sometimes the magma breaks out to the surface through cracks (裂缝) in the crust. These cracks are volcanoes.
    Most people think of mountains when they think of volcanoes. But not every mountain is a volca­no. A volcano is simply the opening in the earth from which the magma escapes. The hot magma, or lava as it is called, cools and builds up on the surface of the earth. Over thousands of years, this pile of cooled lava can grow to be very, very big. For example, the highest mountain in Africa, Kilimanja­ro, is a volcano. It rises more than 16,000 feet above the ground around it.
    8. The underlined word "erupts" means ______.
    A. moves down   B. breaks away    C. builds up       D. suddenly throws out lava
    9. Which words in the passage have the same meaning as "melted rock"?
    A. volcano and crust                B. crust and hard rock
    C. magma and lava                D. volcano and magma
    10. Which is the correct order of the layers of the earth (beginning with the top layer)?
    A. crust — hard rock — magma — soft rock
    B. crust — hard rock — soft rock — magma
    C. agma — soft rock — hard rock — crust
    D. volcano — cracks — magma — crust
    11. The best title of the passage should be______.
    A. The Volcano        B. Kilimanjaro Volcano   C. The Mountains   D. The Melted Rock

    Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert (警报) system using text messages delivered to cell phones.
    Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The wireless industry’s trade association, CTIA, estimates (估计) more than 48 billions text messages are sent each month.
    The plan comes from the Warning Alter and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvement to the nation’s emergency alter system. The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alter the public about emergencies.
    “The ability to deliver accurate and timely warning and alters through cell phone and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies,” FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.
    Participation in the alter system by carriers — telecommunication companies — is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry.
    The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alters.
    There would be three types of messages, according to the rules.
    The first would be a national alter from the president, likely involving  a terrorists attack or natural disaster. The second would involve “approaching threats,” which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (绑架)emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts.
    The service could be in place by 2010.
    61. What is the purpose of the approval plan?
    A. To warn people of emergencies via message.
    B. To popularize the use of cell phone.
    C. To estimate the monthly number of messages.
    D. To promote the wireless industry.
    62. The improvement to the present system is in the charge of ______.
    A. CTLA.   B. the Warning Alert and Response Network
    C. FCC    D. federal regulators
    63. The carriers’ participation in the system is determined by _______.
    A. the US federal government  B. mobile phone users
    C. the carriers themselves       D. the law of the United States
    64. Which of the following is true of cell phone users?
    They must accept the alert service. 
    B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.
    C. They must send the alerts to others.
    D. They may choose the types of messages.
    65. An alert message will NOT be sent if __________.
    A. a child loses his way         B. a university shooting happens
    C. a natural disaster happens   D, a terrorist attack occurs
    66. Which of the following would be the best title for the test?
    A. Cell Phone Alerts Protecting Students
    B. Cell Phone Alerts by Wireless Industry
    C. Cell Phone Alerts Natural Disasters
    D. Cell Phone Alerts Coming Soon

    Sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat, black surfaces. One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?
    Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.
    The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them ran from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground.
    When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer (蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warning the ground-water, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.
    In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.
    小题1:Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?  
    A．Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.
    B．Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.
    C．The Dutch engineer’s system has been widely used.
    D．Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.
    小题2:For what purpose are the diving pipes used?  
    A．To absorb heat from the sun.B．To store heat for future use.
    C．To turn solar energy into heat energy.D．To carry heat down below the surface.
    小题3:From the last paragraph we can learn that __ 
    A．some pipes have to be re-arranged in winter
    B．the system can do more than warming up the building
    C．the exchangers will pick up heat from the street surface
    D．less heat may be collected in winter than in summer
    小题4:What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?  
    A．What we shall do if the system goes wrong.
    B．What we shall do if there are no asphalt roads.
    C．How the system cools the building in summer.
    D．How the system collects heat in spring and autumn

    Against the supposition than forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.
    This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.
    This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.
    Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.
    “We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.
    46. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _______.
    A. result in a warming climate
    B. cause the forest fires to occur more frequently
    C. lead to a longer fire season
    D. protect the forests and the environment there
    47. The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT _________.
    A. large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphere
    B. the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increase
    C. snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into space
    D. ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun
    48. Earlier studies about northern forest fires _________.
    A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate
    B. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphere
    C. suggest that people should take measures to protect environment
    D. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming
    49. The underlined phrase “soak up” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.
    A. released                B. absorbed               C. created                 D. distributed
    50. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may __________.
    A. warm the climate as the supposition goes
    B. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climate
    C. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea ice
    D. help to gain more energy rather than release more energy

    Thanks to a combination of young businessmen, large numbers of university students and revitalization (新生) efforts by the local and national governments, today’s Nanjing has an           of youthful exuberance (繁茂) that would have been        only a few decades ago.     , the city, a booming city of 6.5 million on the banks of the Yangtze River some 185 miles west of Shanghai, bears         resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.
        Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2,500-year history. And in recent years, the city has moved         its tragic past to become a vital engine of China’s economic growth, thanks         to its position in the middle of China’s prosperous eastern seaboard. Growth has also         thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year,         travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is        to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.
    Signs of Nanjing’s         wealth and optimism can be seen everywhere. In the heart of the downtown Xinjiekou district, a bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen,         the father of modern China, looks         over a busy        area.
    There is perhaps no more         symbol of the city’s transformation than the Zifeng Tower, a 1,480-foot skyscraper that opened its doors last May.         offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second-tallest building in China and billed as the seventh-tallest in the world.
    Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and        student population — there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins’s international studies school. In fact, art and music         in all sorts of places.
    On a larger        , local government officials and private investors are pushing the city as a rising center for contemporary art and architecture, hoping to attract         from the neon-bathed streets of its neighbor Shanghai.
