    You cannot see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes. Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be ssen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. Then moon , for example , does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in your direction. So moonlight is only secondhand sunlight.
    When you look at a book, it sends your eyes some of the light that falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.
    Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if it took no time at all. Light reaches us form the moon , which is about 380,000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.
    小题1:You can see the book because___________.
    A．your eyes are close to it .B．it reflects light
    C．it has light of its ownD．your eyes can get to it
    小题2:The word “ reflects”  means____________.
    A．throws backB．takes back
    C．gives offD．sends out

    Learners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding the speeches made by native speakers. The following ways might help improve your listening skills.
    First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Don’t go on to the second book until you are sure you understand the first one.
    Secondly, keep studying one course. Don’t change books often. Never let your attention be attracted by another course just because it seems to be more popular.
    Thirdly, listen to the English news over the radio from time to time. Better look through the news stories in Chinese-language newspapers first. That will make it easier for you to understand the English news on the radio.

    Rare birds in the UK have been living far better than the more common birds over the last decade due to the efforts of conservation organisations, according to a new assessment.
    The research shows almost 60% of the 63 rare birds that live in the UK have increased over the last 10 years.
    By contrast, only about one third of common species have increased over the same period. Just 28% of rare birds have decreased over the same period, compared with four out of every 10 common birds. The rare birds described in the assessment with increasing populations include the osprey (鹗) and corncrake (秧鸡). All of these birds are subject to conservation action.
    The declining common birds include the nightingale, swift (雨燕), house sparrow and red grouse (苏格兰雷鸟). These are suffering declines for a variety of reasons, including changes in farming practices.
    Dr David Noble, from the British Trust for Ornithology, said: “That some of our rarer birds have responded to targeted conservation action is great news. It shows just what can be achieved. What we need to do now is to continue the good work and use some of the lessons we have learned to help our more common birds.”
    Dr Mark Avery, the conservation director of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), said: “Over the last decade we've enjoyed some great conservation successes, including removing some threatened species from the World Conservation Union's Red List of Thratened Animals and increasing the populations of red kite, osprey, etc. However, these successes are countered (抵消) by continued declines of some widespread species.”
    The overview of 210 native birds has been produced by a group of conservation organisations, to mark the publication of The State of the UK's Birds report, which is in its l0th year. The report was published by the RSPB for a group of conservation organisations.
    小题1: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．The decline of widespread birds is not worrying for the UK.
    B．The UK has got some practical experience of bird conservation.
    C．Changes in farming practices contribute to the increase of rare birds.
    D．Half of common birds have decreased in the past ten years in the UK.
    小题2:We can learn from the passage that Dr David Noble      .
    A．hopes that conservation organisations will change the way they work
    B．is quite disappointed with the result of the new assessment
    C．is losing confidence in conservation organizations’ action
    D．has high hopes for the increase in bird population in Britain
    小题3: Which of the following can best explain Dr Mark Avery's words?
    A．The UK should not be satisfied with what they have achieved.
    B．The UK should share their experience with other countries.
    C．What conservation organisations do is far from satisfactory.
    D．The RSPB is responsible for the decrease of common birds.
    小题4:The passage is most likely to be found in a book about      .
    A．popular science B．historical events
    C．nature D．society
    小题5: The author's purpose of writing this article is to tell people      .
    A．some good ways to protect rare birds
    B．the differences between rare birds and common birds
    C．the number of rare birds has increased over the last decade
    D．some widespread birds in the UK are in great need of help

    “A good book for children should simply be a good book in its own right,”says Mollie Hunter. Born and brought up near Edinburgh, Mollie has devoted her talents to writing primarily for young people. She firmly believes that there is and should always be a wider audience for any good book whatever its main market is. In Mollie’s opinion it is necessary to make full use of language and she enjoys telling a story, which is what every writer should be doing, “If you aren’t telling a story, you’re a very dead writer indeed.”she says. With the chief function of a writer being to entertain, Mollie is indeed an entertainer. “I have this great love of not only the meaning of language but of the music of language,”she says. “This love goes back to early childhood. I’ve told stories all my life. I had a school teacher who used to ask us what we would like to be when we grew up and, because my family always had dogs, and I was very good at handling them. I said I wanted to work with dogs, and the teacher always said‘Nonsense, Mollie; dear, you’ll be a writer.’So finally I thought that this woman must have something, since she was a good teacher and I decided when I was nine that I would be a writer.”
    This childhood intention is described in her novel, A Sound of Chariots, which although written in the third person is clearly autobiographical (自传体的)and gives a picture both of Mollie’s ambition and her struggle towards its achievement. Thoughts of her childhood inevitably(不可避免的)brought thoughts of the time when her home was still a village with buttercup meadows and strawberry fields-sadly now covered with modern houses. “I was once taken back to see it and I felt that somebody had lain dirty hands all over my childhood. I’ll never go back,”she said.“Never.”“When I set one of my books in Scotland,”she said,“I can recall my romantic feelings as a child playing in those fields, or watching the village blacksmith at work. And that’s important, because children now know so much so early that romance can’t exist for them, as it did for us.”
    小题1: What does Mollie Hunter feel about the nature of a good book?
    A．It should not aim at a narrow audience.
    B．It should be attractive to young readers.
    C．It should be based on original ideas.
    D．It should not include too much conversation.
    小题2: In Mollie Hunter’s opinion, which of the following is one sign of poor writer?
    A．Being poor in life experience
    B．Being short of writing skill.
    C．The weakness of description
    D．The absence of a story.
    小题3:What do we learn about Mollie Hunter as a young child？
    A．She didn’t expect to become a writer.
    B．She didn’t enjoy writing stories.
    C．She didn’t have any particular ambition.
    D．She didn’t respect her teacher’s view.
    小题4:In comparison with children of earlier years, Mollie feels that children now are _____.
    A．more intelligent
    B．better informed
    C．less eager to learn
    D．less interested in reality
    小题5: What’s the writer’s purpose in this text?
    A．To share her enjoyment of Mollie Hunter’s book.
    B．To introduce Mollie Hunter’s work to a wider audience.
    C．To provide information for Mollie Hunter’s existing readers.
    D．To describe Mollie Hunter’s most successful books.

    Honeybees are disappearing for unknown reasons around the United States．Last winter, bees disappeared from 23 percent of American beekeeping businesses．Causes of the phenomenon, however, have remained a mystery．
    Now, scientists from several universities and the United States Department of Agriculture say they have a possible explanation for the bee decline（数量下降）．It is a little known virus called Israeli acute--paralysis virus （IAPV）．The virus kills bees．Researchers in Israel first described it in 2004 , but until now, bee experts hadn’t paid much attention to it．
    When trying to find out why the bees were disappearing, a research team at Columbia University studied bee colonies （群体）, some with and the others without decline．The research turned up large numbers of two types of fungi （真菌） once suspected of causing the bee decline．The research results, however, showed that the fungi were almost as common in colonies without a decline as they were in colonies with a decline．The researchers concluded that the two fungi probably weren’t the cause．
    Studies of the presence of IAPV, however, showed more interesting information．In those studies, done by a team at Pennsylvania State University in University Park, the virus showed up in 83 percent of samples from colonies with symptoms （症状）．Only five percent of samples from symptomless colonies had it．
    Scientists still don’t know whether IAPIV can single--handedly cause the bee decline．They believe that even if the virus is making colonies sick , it could have a partner in crime．It’s possible, for instance, that insects or chemicals in the environment weaken bees, making them more likely to catch IAPV．
    Scientists are still trying to figure out how IAPV came to the United States．The United States currently allows bee products to be imported from Canada, Australia, and New Zealand．If it turns out that this trade is spreading disease, the rules might eventually change．
    小题1:According to the passage ，IAPV is a virus that ______．
    A．hasn’t attracted much attention
    B．well-known to doctors and scientist
    C．was first found by Austrian researchers
    D．is dangerous to animals and human beings
    小题2:The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph probably means______．
    A．the virus could also cause other damages
    B．there must be something that is the real cause
    C．IAPV is not the only cause for the bee decline
    D．the virus may be caused by the polluted environment
    小题3:From the third and fourth paragraphs, we know researchers draw their conclusions by means of _______．
    A．calculating B．comparingC．examiningD．investigating
    小题4:What still remains unknown to American scientists according to the passage?
    A．How and why to kill IAPV．
    B．How IAPV came to America．
    C．Whether bee products should be imported．
    D．How to change the rules of the bee products trade．
    小题5:The best title for this passage would be _____．
    A．Bee DiseaseB．How to Kill IAPV
    C．A Virus—IAPVD．Two Types of Fungi

    LAS VEGAS (AFP) — Children may not like it but a British technology firm has invented an electronic babysitter -- a wristwatch-like device that lets parents know where their children are at all times.
    The GPS Child Locator, or num8, attaches securely to a child’s wrist and contains a Global Positioning System (GPS), said Matthew Salmon, a spokesman for the manufacturer, lok8u.
    "It uses GPS and GSM (Global System for Mobiles) technology with an accuracy of 10 feet (three meters)," he said. "It tracks your child."
    "It only starts working when the device is connected to the child’s wrist," Salmon said, and is "very difficult to get off."
    "Even if the child managed to get it off it would send an emergency text message through to your mobile phone," he said. "It would give you a Google Maps image with their exact location, the street name and the zip code."
    When a child is wearing the device, a parent sends the text message "wru" and the child’s current location is sent back to a mobile phone or computer.
    Parents can also log on to the company website to discover their child’s present location.
    "You can also set up a perimeter, an invisible fence, and if they wander out of this invisible fence which you put on the Internet it will warn you," Salmon said. "It will text you immediately."
    Salmon said the device is waterproof and shockproof and lasts for three days with a full charge.
    It will be available in both Britain and the United States this year and retails for 200 dollars with a 10 dollar a month subscription fee.
    He said the company had received thousands of inquiries about the device since launching it this week. "Fifty percent are positive, 50 percent are negative, that it’s a bit Big Brotherish," he said. "But it’s really just about letting you have freedom of mind."
    小题1:Only when       does the device begin to work.
    A．it uses GPS and GSM technologyB．it is put within about 3 meters
    C．it’s joined to parents’ computerD．it is fastened to the child’s wrist
    小题2:If a child is wearing the “wristwatch”, parents can track them by      .
    A．sending the text message “wru”B．replying to the text message
    C．getting a Google Maps pictureD．phoning the local police station
    小题3:What Can we conclude from the text?
    A．It won’t be easily found if a child loses t11e device
    B．The device won’t work while a child is swimming
    C．Parents can easily track children due to the device
    D．The new product needs to be fully charged daily
    小题4:The purpose of the text is to      .
    A．explain how to use the new device
    B．attract more buyers to the new product
    C．discuss advantages of a new invention
    D．introduce a new electronic equipment

    Cloning is suggested as a means of bringing back a relative, usually a child, killed tragically. Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child. Here lies the difficulty, for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one. Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however, that the copy would develop quite differently. Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with such unnatural expectations?
    Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams. Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star, baseball player or scientist, depending on their interest. But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance(遗传), conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original. What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the baseball player turns to acting? Success also depends upon fortune. What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dreams of the parents simply because of bad luck?
    Every child should be wanted for itself, as an individual. In making a copy of oneself or some famous person, a parent is deliberately（深思熟虑地） specifying(详细说明) the way he or she wishes that child to develop. In recent years, particularly in the U.S., much importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish. So I suggest there is a greater need to consider the interests of the child and to reject these proposed uses of cloning.
    40. What happens to parents in cloning a lost child?
    A. Parents expect too much from the copy.
    B. Parents may get a quite different copy.
    C. Parents are sure to have an identical copy.
    D. Parents lose the talents of the lost child.
    41. What,  in  the  author’s  opinion,  affects  the success of parents’ dreams?
    A. The cloned child’s interest in Einstein.
    B. The cloned child’s natural talent.
    C. The cloned child’s personality.
    D. The efforts of the parents.
    42. In the third paragraph, the author implies that ______.
    A. the cloned child is viewed as independent
    B. the right of growing in his own way is taken away from the cloned child
    C. parents carefully protect the rights of the cloned child
    D. parents are eager to wish the cloned child to be somebody.
    43. In this passage, the author is mainly concerned about ______.            
    A. the future of a cloned child
    B. the possibility of cloning people
    C. the importance of cloning a lost child
    D. the problems of cloning life

    “ONLY A COKE WILL DO”
    “We don’t necessarily believe that new advertising, which might make consumers feel better about the Coke brand or better about the ads themselves, will actually result in consumers consuming more of the product,” Morgan Stanley’s Bill Pecoriello wrote in a research note the day after the investor meeting. But Coke is optimistic it can regain its old magic, and is banking on a new slogan: “Welcome to the Coke side of life.”
    BREAKTHROUGH HIT?
    With PepsiCo about to surpass Coke as the beverage king on Wall Street – Pepsi’s market capitalization has soared in recent years to $97.9 billion, putting it less than a billion dollars behind its rival(对手) – the heat is on Coke. It’s set to launch a new marketing campaign in March, 2006. And having taken a quick look at Coke’s investor presentation on Dec. 7 in New York, my sense is that Coke may be moving in the right direction.
    Given the continued shift by consumers away from soda – Coke’s stronghold – and into alternative beverages like juice, tea and water, Coke badly needs a breakthrough hit. And given that shift away from soda, some analysts wonder whether even the catchiest new ads will be enough to put the fizz back into Coke.
    SAME OLD, UPDATED.
    The new flavors of PowerAde sports drink will probably enable Coke to continue stealing market share from PepsiCo’s Gatorade brand. And Coke is getting a little more creative with packaging, including new, aluminum bottles of Coke that will be sold in nightclubs, and an 8.4-ounce “100 calorie” version of its flagship Coke that will appeal to women who want fewer calories and will like the fact that the small can will fit in their purse. I doubt whether other new products will be successful, including a new coffee-flavored soda called Coke-Cola Blak that I tried. Think carbonated coffee. But I’m not sure if the product, which Coke is pitching as an afternoon pick-me-up for the 35-and-over set, is going to pull people away from their afternoon Frappucino fix. And my opinion is that Vault, an orange-flavored energy drink, will have just as much trouble unseating Mountain Dew among teens as did Coke’s last attempt, a product called Surge.
    If there is one concern I have about the fresh offerings Coke plans to launch this year, it appears that many of them are simply new brands, not new products.
    68.According to the passage, we can know that ____.
    A. Coke mainly depends on new products recently
    B. nowadays Coke is comparatively less popular
    C. PepsiCo has taken the place of Coke
    D. Coke has few new brands
    69.The underlined word “soared” means ____.
    A. achieved     B. dropped     C. increased     D. failed
    70.When the middle-aged people feel tired, what would they prefer to drink in order to continue their work?
    A. Vault.     B. Surge.     C. Coke-Cola Blak     D. Frappucino.
    71.What is the best title of the passage?
    A. Troubles in Coke Company
    B. Varieties of New Products
    C. The Importance of New Advertisements
    D. The Relationship Between Coke and Pepsi
