Parents on South Australia's Aboriginal (澳大利亚土著的) lands may lose some of their financial aid if they do not send their children to school. The new rules draw wide concern.
Mundine is Prime Minister Tony Abbott's top advisor on issues concerning Aboriginals, native Australians. “Now, I know the government needs some necessary measures but I think punishing the parents is really the last choice.” Mr. Mundine says the situation can be changed if the tribal leaders support education. “We need to work with parents and communities because we are making a huge cultural change here.” But other officials say they believe the threat of stopping aid will force families to take education more seriously.
The State of South Australia says it has special programs for Aboriginal children. The students work with their parents and teachers first to develop a personal learning plan and the public schools provide special workers to work individually with Aboriginal students. At the age of seven, Aboriginal students can join a program called Enter for Success designed to attract students to school. The students can choose which high school to attend and receive support in reaching the goals on their individual learning plans.
The State of Western Australia also has special programs for Aboriginal and other ethnic (种族的) groups. The state operates a program called Focus Schools which centers on basic skills like reading, writing and counting. 67% of these public focus schools serve the students in 79 very rural areas. Most of them are primary schools. The Focus Schools program also includes 118 coaches working with students in 134 schools.
1.What's the aim of the new regulations?
A．To develop advanced education.
B．To improve Aboriginal children's school attendance.
C．To get tribal chiefs to support education.
D．To punish parents on South Australia's Aboriginal lands.
2.To change the situation, Mr. Mundine may not agree with ________.
A．cooperating with the parents
B．limiting the economic aid of the families
C．winning the favor of the communities
D．making a cultural change in the communities
3.It is known from the statistics in the last paragraph that ________.
A．the special program is a success
B．the special program covers every area of Australia
C．the government has tried to help with the Aboriginal education
D．the government has taken action to promote the elementary schools

The term “smog” was first used in London during the early 1900's to describe the combination of smoke and fog. What we typically call “smog” today is a mixture of pollutants but is primarily made up of ground?level ozone (臭氧)．
Ozone can be beneficial or harmful depending on where it stays. The ozone staying high above the Earth protects human health and the environment, but ground?level ozone is responsible for the choking, coughing, and painful eyes associated with smog. The ozone in smog also prevents plants growth and can cause widespread damage to crops and forest.
Major smog occurrences often are linked to heavy motor vehicle traffic, high temperatures, sunshine, and calm winds. Weather and geography affect the position and severity of smog. Because temperature regulates the length of time it takes for smog to form, smog can form faster and be more severe on a hot and sunny day. When warm air stays near the ground instead of rising and winds are calm, smog may stay trapped over your city for days. As traffic and other sources add more pollutants to the air, the smog gets worse. Smog is often more severe away from the pollution sources because the chemical reactions that cause smog occur in the atmosphere while the reacting chemicals are being moved by the wind.
Smog is a visible example of air pollution. You can look into the distance during the day to see how much smog there is in the air. In addition, most cities measure the concentrations of pollutants in the air and report the results to the public.
Environmental Protection Agency sets national standards for pollutants. Areas that fail to meet the standards for at least one air pollutant are called “nonattainment (不达标) areas”. New measures are being taken by local governments across the country to reduce air pollution in nonattainment areas. These include: banning charcoal barbecues and wood burning in stoves or fireplaces when pollution levels are high; developing programs to encourage carpooling and voluntary “ozone actions”； limiting traffic in overcrowded areas; expanding or improving public transportation systems; requiring employers to contribute to employee public transportation costs; assessing “smog fees” on cars according to the number of miles driven and vehicle emissions (排放) produced; and even buying and breaking up older “super?dirty” cars.
1.According to the passage, ground?level ozone can______.
A．damage the environment
B．benefit human health
C．protect crops and forest
D．limit the spread of smog
2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Air quality is better in time of calm wind.
B．Smog is more severe near pollution sources.
C．It takes more time for smog to form in hot weather.
D．Chemical reactions occur in the moving air and cause smog.
3.Which indication shows more exact the air is poor?
A．Heavy motor vehicle traffic in big cities.
B．Widespread damage of crops and forest.
C．Clear outlines of hills in the distance.
D．High concentrations of pollutants in the air.
4.What is included in the measures being taken by the local governments?
A．Unconditional banning of wood burning.
B．Encouraging carpooling and public transportation.
C．Charging all the vehicles more “smog fees”．
D．Buying new cars to replace super?dirty old cars.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time — about eight hours after you wake up — your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers don't follow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap — even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
1.Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?
A．Because you eat too much for lunch.
B．Because it's hot in summer.
C．Because your body temperature goes down at that time.
D．Because you didn't have a good sleep last night.
2.What can we learn about “naps” according to the last paragraph?
A．All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the day.
B．Doctors need to take naps while employers don't.
C．If you take naps every day, you'll never suffer from heart disease.
D．Taking naps regularly is beneficial to people's health.
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A．If you get up at 6：30 am, you'd better take a nap at about 1：30 pm.
B．Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.
C．You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.
D．You'll feel sleepy at regular intervals.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A．Just for a Rest
B．All for a Nap
C．A Special Sleep Pattern
D．Taking Naps in Warmer Climates

Every day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news. In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation(视觉听觉超刺激), the medium of radio is making a great comeback.
“We’re at the beginning of a golden age of audio,” said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald. In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast(播客). These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present day’s digital podcast format. The term “podcast” was invented in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years. With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smartphones and tablets, podcast sales have jumped.
The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities(功能). You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when you’re walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway. Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week.
Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTunes. “I listen while I’m wandering around the house doing something else. It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable… And it’s an easy way of keeping in touch with what’s going on in the rest of the world,” she said. “I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently I’ve also been listening to This American Life and Serial. They have a special skill to really draw you in.”
Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers. Blumberg says this owes to the podcast’s ability “to create close relationship and emotional connection.” Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees. “When you’re listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcast’s storyteller is talking directly to you. It’s comforting,” said Proust.
It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well.
1.From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that _________.
A. traditional broadcast has come back
B. Americans love listening to the radio
C. podcasts have become very popular today
D. smartphones sell well because of podcasts
2.The writer mentions Donna Jackson mainly to ______.
A. tell how young people relax themselves
B. explain why young people like podcasts
C. introduce what programs podcasts are presenting
D. show how popular podcasts are among the young
3.Paragraph 5 is mainly about __________.
A. the influence of radios
B. the advantage of podcasts
C. readers’ impression on radios
D. people’s reaction to the medium
4.What is probably the best title of the passage?
A. Return of Radio B. Opinions of Podcast
C. Features of Radio D. Technology of Podcast
