    D
    A team of scientists proved that seals had a very good sense of hearing. These men trained blind seals to expect food when they heard sounds. The seals always began snapping(猛咬) when a strong signal was sounded.
    It was proved that even a soft signal, a considerable distance away, could make these sea animals respond. That should make the fisherman who makes much noise while working, or talks loudly, start thinking.
    The same team of scientists also trained seals to recognize different sounds. One bell-tone meant food ,two bell-tones meant no food. In the beginning, the seals made mistakes when the two bell-tones were sounded. They were given a light tap after each mistake. The seals were good learners. They easily learned to tell the difference between the sounds.
    67.Why was it necessary to use blind seals? Because they______.
    A. were unable to use sight for clues    B. had better hearing
    C. were waiting to be fed             D. were the only animals to be found
    68. To those seals strong signal meant_____.
    A. snapping     B. nothing      C. food       D. a light tap
    69. The article doesn’t say directly but suggests that fishermen usually think______.
    A. seals have no good sense of hearing   B. seals have good sense of hearing
    C. seals can only recognize bell sounds   D. seals can not hear soft or long distant sounds
    70. Which title will be the best to suit the article?
    A. Clever Seals                      B. Smart Learners 
    C. An Underwater School             D. An Unknown School

    More and more American parents, students, educators, political and business leaders have come to see the importance of Chinese on the world stage. As a result, Americans hoping to learn Chinese are growing in number though they face a lot of difficulties.
    Liu Chuansheng, chairperson of the University Council at Beijing Normal University, talked about this situation. “There have been 300 million Chinese learning English, and I know that there are more and more Americans beginning to learn Chinese. I remember when I came to the U. S. there were only 250 schools offering Chinese classes; when I left in 2005, there were already 2,400 schools hoping to offer Chinese classes. Today more than 700 schools are offering Chinese classes, and 4,500 are planning to do so.”
    “This is an important time in America. We have suffered from an economic crisis; there is swine flu(猪流感) ---- all part of our lives. We need to be competitive to deal with the world and make an effort to understand each other,” said Shuhan Wang, head of Chinese Language Initiatives at Asia Society. “The number of Chinese language teachers remains the key bottleneck,” she said. “And the need for specialized teachers becomes greater, as there is increasing popularity of early language learning ---- kindergarten through 8th grades.”
    Jon M. Huntsman Jr., governor(州长) of Utah, has led his state to the front in teaching Chinese. “While math and science remain main studies,” he said, “language is going to be an important drive in education. Next year 82 schools will offer Chinese to 6,000 students.”

    C
    Some experts feel that cars are certain to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all cars will be deserted and made useless. Other experts, however, think the car is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of city travel in the foreseeable future.
    The car will undoubtedly change greatly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more practical, and should not be powered by the gas engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.
    Unless changes take place in the power system, the car in the future will still be the main problem in city traffic jams. One suggested solution to this essential problem is the automated (自动的) system, which seems to hold water.
    When the car enters the highway system, a small arm will drop from the car and connect with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once joined to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the car will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all the car’s movements. The driver will use the telephone to dial instructions about his position and the place he heads for into the system. The computer will find the best way and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will be free to relax and wait for the call that will warm him of his coming exit. It is believed that an automated highway will be able to deal with 10,000 cars per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 cars that can be carried by a present-day highway.
    48. What is the main concern of the author of the passage?
    A. How to make cars pollution-free.            B. How to make cars smaller and safer.
    C. How to solve the problem of train jam.   D. How to develop an automated subway system.
    49. We can infer from this passage that __________.
    A. the car connected to the rail on the highway will be powered by electricity.
    B. The lack of oil is forcing people to find new means to power automobiles.
    C. The driver under the system will be told where to get out of the highway.
    D. The future car will become larger, faster, prettier and less expensive.
    50. What provides cars with electric power in an automated highway system?
    A. An engine.        B.A rail.   C. A computer controller.            D. A small arm.
    51. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. The driver puts his information in the system by email.
    B. The new system can deal with 10 times as many cars as the present one.
    C. After entering the automated system, the driver needs to do nothing but relax.
    D. Some experts are not confident of the future, while the view of the author is hopeful.

    Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment（营养）. The old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away. " is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form(丸剂), believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn't need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

    One reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation（砍伐森林） is a blank stare that asks the question, "Since I don't live there, what does it have to do with me?"
    The answer is that your way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics in many ways. If you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests.
    Biologically, we are losing the richest regions on earth when, each minute, a piece of tropical forest, the size of ten city blocks ,disappears. As many as five million species of plants, animals, and insects (40 to 50 percent of all living things) live there, and are being lost faster than they can be found and described. Their loss is immeasurable.
    Take rubber for example. For many uses, only natural rubber from trees will do. Synthetics are not good enough. Today over half the world's commercial rubber is produced in Malaysia and Indonesia, while the Amazon's rubber industry produces much of the world's four million tons. And rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons, footwear and many sporting goods. Thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use.
    Many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effect -- or heating of the earth from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As we destroy forests, we lose their ability to change carbon dioxide into oxygen.
    Carbon dioxide levels could double within the next half-century, warming the earth by as much as 4.5 degrees. The result? A partial melt-down of polar ice caps, raising sea levels as much as 24 feet; even 15 feet could threaten anyone living within 35 miles of the coast. Unbelievable? Maybe. But scientists warn that by the time we realize the severe effects of tropical deforestation, it will be 20 years too late.
    Can tropical deforestation affect our everyday lives? Now, you should have got the answer.
    58．The underlined word "synthetics" probably means a kind of _________.
    A．natural rubber   B．tropical material   C．man-made material   D．tropical tree
    59．In the last paragraph the author tries to__________.
    A．tell people how to avoid the tropical deforestation
    B．show us how important it is to protect the tropical forests
    C．persuade people to buy something synthetic
    D．let people realize the effect of tropical deforestation
    60．The author's attitude towards the tropical deforestation is____________.
    A．puzzling        B．cold        C．supporting       D．opposed

    Not even Dan Brown and his Da Vinci code—breakers(密码破译者)dared deal with the mystery of Mona Lisa，s smile．But Nicu Sebe，a computer expert the University of Amsterdam，the Netherlands，did．He used’emotion recognition’software to process the famous painting and found Mona Lisa happy(83 per cent)and slightly disgusted(厌烦的)(9 per cent)．
    Faces show emotions. Psychology，computer science，and engineering researchers are joining forces to teach machines to read expressions．If they succeed，your computer may one day“read”your mood．Machines equipped with emotional skills could also be used in teaching，gaming，mind－reading，etc.
    “Mind Reader”，a system developed by Rosalind Picard at MIT(the Massachusetts Institute of Tech’nology)in the US, uses input from a video camera to do real—time analysis of facial expressions. It reports on whether you seem“interested”or“agreeable”or if you’re“confused”．The system can help people recognize others’emotions．Picard says this means we could teach a machine to be as sensitive as a human．In fact，a machine can be even smarter than people since it can tell if a person is lying or just“performing”by analyzing one’s facial movements．
    Jeffrey Cohn，a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh，uses the Facial Action Coding System to recognize human emotions．The system sorts more than 40 action units(AUs)of the face to tell people’s real emotions．He studied a videotape of a criminal who said to be sad about the murder of several family members and tried to pin the blame on someone else．But Cohn saw no real sadness in the woman’s face.
    Sadness is a group of AUs that is difficult to do at the same time．You have to pull down the woman’s of your lips while bringing your eyebrows together and raising them．What the woman did was raise her cheeks to make a lip cud(撇嘴)。Her brows stayed smooth．
    64．The best title of this passage is“ ________ ”．
    A．The emotion on your face                    B．Look at your face
    C．Your face tells a story                          D．Telling a lie
    65．The missing sentence“This means，even though your mouth lice，your face doesn’t，and the machine will know it all. ”should be put at the end of ___________．
    A．Paragraph 2   B．Paragraph 3      C．Paragraph 4     D．Paragraph 5
    66．How many facial emotion analyses are mentioned in this passage?
    A．Four．               B．Three．              C．Two．         D．One
    67．The underlined word“it”refers to________．
    A．MIT                                 B．the video camera
    C．one’s face emotion            D．the real—time analysis

    A
    Too often we accuse others of not listening, pretending that we ourselves are faultless, yet in our hearts we know that many of the mistakes we make come about because we haven’t listened carefully enough. We get things wrong because we haven’t listened carefully enough. We get things wrong because we haven’t quite understood what someone meant when they were talking to us. Anyone who has ever taken the minutes of a long meeting will know how hard it is to remember-- despite the benefit of notes-- exactly what everyone said. But success depends on getting things right--and that means listening.
    Listening is not the same thing as hearing; it is not an effort actively. It demands attention and concentration. It may mean quizzing the speaker for additional information or for clarification------ it is always better to ask than to continue regardless and get things wrong. However, if you allow your mind to wander onto something else, even for a few minutes, you’ll miss what the speaker is saying------ probably at the very moment when he or she is saying something critical. And not having heard, you won’t know you’ve missed anything until it’s too late.
    The most common bad habit we have is to start thinking of what we are going to say about the subject long before the other speaker has finished. We then stop listening. Even worse, this often adds rudeness to inattentiveness, as once you have decided what to say there is a fair chance you will interrupt to say it. Good listeners don’t interrupt. In fact it is often worth explaining the main idea of what you have just been told before going on to make your own points. Nobody is offended by this and it shows that you have listened well.
    Above all be patient and accept that many people are not very good communicators. It’s helpful to remember that the ways people move and position themselves while they are speaking can reveal a great deal about what they are saying. Equally important you should put yourself in the other person’s place, both intellectually and emotionally; it will help you to understand what they are getting at and form a response. But don’t be too clever. Faced with a know-all, many people keep quiet because they see no point in continuing.
    56. Which is the best title for this passage?
    A. Don’t be too clever                B. Be a good listener.
    C. Don’t miss anything critical            D. Think of the speaker
    57. In the last paragraph, “…… what they are getting at ……” means________ .
    A. what they imply                             B. what they like
    C. what they attack                             D. what they achieve
    58. What is the writer’s opinion?
    A. If you want to be a good listener, you should be very clever and emotional.
    B. Speakers won’t continue talking when their listeners explain what they’ve heard.
    C. If you don’t want to get things wrong, it’s important to be a good listener,
    D. It’s hard to be a good listener because listening tests you on your intelligence.
    59. What is the lesson we can learn from this passage?
    A. Don’t accuse others of not listening while talking with them.
    B. Don’t get anything wrong if you miss what the speaker is saying.
    C. Listening inattentively may cost you the loss of your success.
    D. Think carefully of what you’re going to say before the speaker finishes.
