    People like to look in the mirror often when they have a young and beautiful face. However, when one grows old, nobody wants to see their wrinkled old face in the mirror any more. So, many old people seldom look at their faces in the mirror. This is completely wrong.
    According to Wu Zhenyun, a professor from the Psychological Research Institute under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a person’s willingness to look in the mirror can reflect his or her mentality. When people don’t care too much about their age, they will try to carry themselves with ease and natural poise (姿态). They don’t mind looking in the mirror to see their own faces. Some people even love to look in the mirror from time to time to see whether they keep a good appearance. In this way, mirror becomes their best friend that help them to look confident.
    On the other hand, some people are afraid of being old. They don’t want to see the wrinkles on their face and their hair turning grey. So they don’t want to look in the mirror. This actually reflects a negative attitude they hold towards life. In the long term, they might suffer from psychological pressure or some sort of depression, which is actually not a wise act.
    “ Everyone can make themselves look charming at every age stage. If one is confident, one will always look beautiful, it shows that they accept themselves.” professor Wu said.
    Mirror cannot only give confidence to one. By looking in the mirror, one can even find the traces of some diseases from one’s own face.
    67.Why does the mirror become the best friend for some people?
    A. Because it brings much confidence to them.
    B. Because it makes them more beautiful.
    C. Because it tells whether they are clean or not.
    D. Because it helps them find their own faults.
    68.The fact that some people are afraid of looking in the mirror reflects that______.
    A. they suffer from metal disease  B. they treat life in a negative way      
    C. they are too ugly              D. they can’t bear the pressure of being old
    69. The text tells us that______.
    A. if you are willing to look in the mirror you are getting old
    B. everyone can become attractive at any age
    C. confidence can make a person look beautiful
    D. old people will accept the reality when they are old
    70. The writer wrote this passage to______.
    A. advise people to look in the mirror constantly
    B. reflect different attitude towards looking into a mirror
    C. introduce a way of finding signs of disease from one’s face
    D. analyze why people like and dislike to look in the mirror

    Plastic is one of the most important technological discoveries of the 20th century. However, it may soon be replaced. The new development- liquid wood- can replace plastics in all branches of modern-day industries.
    Plastic as a material enjoys the biggest demand in the modern world, but it does have a number of drawbacks. First and foremost, plastic isn’t recyclable. Secondly, it contains toxins (毒物) helping develop cancerous diseases. Finally, it’s made of oil and oil reserves aren’t endless.
    The liquid wood technology is likely to replace plastic and providing mankind with new materials for many years ahead. Norbert Eisenfreich, a senior researcher at the Faunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology in Germany (ICT), said that arboform, the new material, is made of lignin(木素质）, which can be obtained from soft tissues of wood. Once mixed with several other matenals, it turns into solid and non-toxic alternative for plastics.
    ICT team leader Emilia Regina Inone-Kauffmann said the wood-working industry separates wood into three basic components, including lignin. Lignin isn’t used for the production of paper. Specialists of ICT mixed lignin with several natural materials and thus invented the material which could be melted and molded (铸型）.
    When solid, arboform looks like plastic and possesses tho qualitie of polished wood. It can be used for the production of any items. Arboform is already used for the production of car parts which require extra strength. In addition, liquid wood can be recycled repeatedly. The material preserved all of its qualities even if it’s reprocessed ten times.
    However, the new invention doesn’t enjoy an extensive use due to the high content of sulfur(硫) in it. German researchers are sure to reduce the amount of sulfur by 90% very soon to make arboform usable for home needs.
    小题1:According to the passage, plastic        .
    A．helps us to reduce the use of petrol
    B．helps to protect our environment in some way
    C．does harm to our society in some way
    D．has been replaced by the newly discovered material
    小题2:What’s the advantage of arboform over plastic?
    A．It is easier made from natural oil.
    B．It is more widely used in household
    C．It is recyclable and friendly to environment.
    D．It contains no poisonous materials.
    小题3:The underlined word “altemative” in Paragraph 3 means        .
    A．lignin or arboformB．soft tissues of wood
    C．plastics or woodD．mixture of several materials
    小题4:It can be concluded that German researchers will focus their future work firstly on     .
    A．the material’s extensive useB．the content of sulfur in arboform
    C．the production cost of arboformD．the qualities of liquid wood
    小题5:The main purpose of the text is to     .
    A．introduce liquid wood which will replace plastic
    B．show readers how to produce arboform
    C．advertise the new material-arboform
    D．advertise new products made of arboform

    A while ago my family and I went sledding(滑雪橇) and as I watched my children climbing up the slope I started thinking.
    Many people are convinced that most of today’s   26   problems are because of the “me” generation. Youngsters are just out for themselves and pay no   27   to others or their needs. Indeed, a common belief is that today’s youngsters won’t do anything  28   there is something in it for them.
    Yet, while sledding, I saw a   29  side. I watched my two oldest children (then five and four) take my youngest(then two years old)by the hand to help her up the slippery slope  30   they went up. They would have been   31  without her, but not once did they try to sneak （溜掉）by her without helping. And when the sled  32  my two daughters was aimed toward the edge, it was my five year old son who ran to them to  33  them from falling and hurting themselves.
    These children sometimes   34  among themselves and, on occasion, behave horribly. But I can  35  them shopping and know that they won’t ask for anything, I can talk to them about tsunami or hurricane victims and know that they will offer to  36  some of their own money to the cause, and I can ask them to play with those children  37  on the sideline(作为旁观者) and know that they will befriend（照顾）them.
    Perhaps, therefore, the “me” generation is to blame  38   much of society’s problems—not the youngsters who want everything,   39  the adults who have taught them to selfishly  40   only of themselves.
    Most adults have been   41  at some time or another, sadly, many   42  that disappointment down to their children. Then the children learn to put themselves first!
    Most young children want to help. We can  43  that feeling by teaching the lesson my children learned while sledding: Life is a slippery slope with  44  of bumps(撞伤) and bruises(擦伤), but we can all make it to the  45  if we remember to help those who need it.

    Whenever human populations have lived in forest areas, they have always cut down trees which they used for a number of purposes, for housing and ships and served as a source of heating fuel and timber. Growth of cities often meant expansion into forest areas, while even more trees were removed to provide space for agriculture. With the growing demand for paper, vast quantities of trees have also been cut down for paper production. These factors, along with many others, have been contributing to a dangerous phenomenon known as deforestation.
    In the last 5,000 years, humans have reduced forest from roughly 50 percent of the earth’s land surface to less than 20 percent. Most of this original, or old growth, forest cover is concentrated in three large areas: the Canadian and Alaskan boreal forest, the boreal forest of Russia, and the tropical forest of the northwestern Amazon Basin and the Guyana Shield. These areas comprise almost 70 percent of the world’s remaining original forest cover. In most places, the rate of deforestation is increasing, with the alarming result of 16 million hectares disappearing worldwide every year.
    Loss of forest does not just mean the decline of natural resources. There are several other factors that make deforestation seriously harmful to both the human and natural worlds. One of them is changes in the global climate. For example, forest clearance is releasing substantial volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as vegetation is burnt or decays. It has been suggested that this is a significant factor in global warming. Moreover, about 10 percent of the world’s tree species are in danger of extinction as a result of deforestation. Deforestation also threatens biological diversity through the destruction of wildlife habitats, which endangers a number of animal species and leads to their potential disappearance. Species are particularly easy to extinction in tropical rainforests because many species have few individuals per unit area, which makes reproduction more difficult. Finally, since forests play an important role in storing water and stabilizing soil, deforestation and the resulting change in land use cause soil erosion (腐蚀) and other forms of land degradation.
    72.   The passage discusses all of the following EXCEPT the ________.
    A. causes of deforestation                                   B. consequences of deforestation
    C. management of deforestation                      D. rate of deforestation
    73.   The word “diversity” in the last paragraph probably means “________”.
    A. variety                                                                  B. expansion           
    C. development                                                      D. advantage
    74.   Why does the author mention fuel and timber in Paragraph 1?
    A. To explain the rate of deforestation.
    B. To compare them with housing and ships.
    C. To show the dangers of deforestation.
    D. To illustrate the causes of deforestation.
    75.   Which of the following sentences summarizes Paragraph 3 best?
    A. Deforestation threatens biological diversity.
    B. Deforestation has many harmful consequences.
    C. Deforestation causes changes in global climate.
    D. Deforestation should be stopped.

      Driving while talking on a hand-held mobile phone has long been considered a danger. But even drivers who use hands free devices are a nuisance – because they are slowing everyone else down, according to a study.
    David Strayer, a psychology professor in Utah University’s traffic lab, conducted a study involving 36 university students driving on motorways. Each used a hands free phone for half the trip but not for the other half. The students were told to obey posted speed limits and use turn signals but the rest of the driving decisions were up to them . What Strayer found is that when the drivers were distracted（使分心）by a phone conversation , they made fewer lane（车道） changes, drove slower and took longer to get where they were going. Fellow researcher Professor Peter Martin, who teaches civil and environmental engineering at Utat University, said,“Ordinarily a slower driver should be safer ， but that’s not the case when people are talking on a cell phone.”
    In general , drivers who used mobile phones while driving took three percent longer to drive along the same high-density route than drivers who didn’t. When stuck behind a dawdling(磨蹭的) driver , it took them between 25 and 50 seconds longer to switch to an open lane to overtake. Those delays can add up when you consider studies that suggest as many as 10 percent of US drivers are using a cell phone at any one time. And delays in traffic streams of very small amounts can grow into massively when drivers are crossing a  highway.” Our next step is to use computer models to determine just how much those delays are costing drivers in time and in extra fuel costs,” Martrin said.
    63. What does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean?
    A. A person who is a volunteer.         B. A person who breaks the traffic law
    C. A person who is annoyed by others.   D. A person who causes trouble
    64. Which of the following is TRUE , according to Martin?
    A. The more slowly a person drove, the safer he was.
    B. Measures should be taken to stop using mobile phones.
    C. Drivers using hand-held phones had less effect on traffic than those using hands free phones
    D. Driving while using mobile phones could cost drivers time and money.
    65. The passage is mainly about      .
    A. traffic conditions in rush hours 
    B. the use of mobile phones in the USA
    C. using hands free devices behind the wheel
    D. a comparison between hand-held phones and hands free ones

     Our sense of hearing is one of the most important means of knowing what is going on around us. We are warned of danger by sounds. The sounds of music please us. Sound has a waste product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better.
    Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals and are alarmed by what they have learned.
    Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is no joke. It is a threat that should be looked at carefully.
    Sound is measured in units called decibels （分贝）. At a level of 140 decibels people feel pain in their ears.
    Trucks, buses, motorcycles, airplanes, boats, and factories all make noise. This noise bothers not only our ears, but our minds and bodies as well.
    There is a saying about "it is so noisy that you can't hear yourself think". Doctors who study noise believe that we must be able to hear ourselves think most of the time. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even mental problems. Noise adds even more tension to a society which already faces too much stress.
    49．The sense of hearing _______.
    A．makes people feel angry   
    B．makes people want to dance
    C．helps people to know what is happening around them

    Critics of cloning often repeat the question related to the controversial(有争议的) science “Just because we can, does it mean we should?”  The closer we come to being able to clone a human, the hotter the debate over it grows. For all the good things cloning may achieve, opponents say that it will do just as much harm. Another question is how to governing cloning process.
    There is federal official law banning cloning in the United States, but several states have passed their own laws to ban the practice. The US Food and Drugs Administration(FDA), has also said that anyone in the United States attempting human cloning must first get its permission. In Japan, human cloning is a crime that is punished by up to 10 years in prison.
    While laws are to ban cloning at this time, some scientists believe that the technology is not ready to be tested on humans. Ian Wilmut, one of the co-creators of Dolly, has even said that human cloning projects would be an irresponsible crime. Cloning technology is still in its early stages, and nearly 98% percent of cloning efforts end in failure. The embryos are either not suitable for implanting into the uterus(子宫) or they die shortly after birth.
    The clones that do survive end up suffering from deadly or problematic genetic abnormalities(畸形). Some clones have been born with faulty heart, lung problems and blood vessel problems. One of the most famous cases was a cloned sheep that was born with but malformed arteries(畸形动脉) leading to the lungs.
    Opponents of cloning will point out that we can enthanize(安乐死) these faulty clones of other animals, but they ask what if a human clone is born with these same problems. Advocates of cloning respond that it is now easier to pick out faulty embryos even before they are implanted into the mother. The debate over human cloning is just beginning, but as science advances, it could be the biggest moral dilemma of the 21st century.
    68. Which word in the text is the opposite of the underlined word “opponents”?
    A. critics        B. advocates          C. scientists           D. co-creators
    69. The writer writes this passage mainly to ________________.
    A. support passing laws to ban human cloning
    B. list problems with human cloning
    C. introduce critics’ ideas about human cloning
    D. state the debate over human cloning
    70. Which of the following will Ian Wilmut probably NOT agree with?
    A. Cloning technology is in its early stages.
    B. Human cloning should be made illegal.
    C. Very few cloning efforts are successful.
    D. Cloning technology is ready to be tested on humans
