"Time is a problem for children," states a news report for a new Swiss watch. Children in some countries" learn time slowly" because" they don’t wear watches" and " parents don’t really know how to teach them time. " The children grow up with this handicap and become adults (成人) —and then can’t get to work on time. Is there an answer to this problem? Of course — it’s the Flik Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.

The Flik Flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it merely " takes their imagination" by presenting the " hour" hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the " minute" hand as a tall blue boy named Flik. Flik points to related" blue" minutes on the dial, while Flak points to " red" hour numbers. The characters and colors combined with parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.

The watch comes equipped with a standard battery (电池) and a nylon band (尼龙表带). Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flik Flak, calls it " childproof if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing ma??chine. " The product is being sold in select department stores in Europe, Asia and the United States for a suggested price of $25. Parents who buy the watch may discover that it is one thing to tell time; it’s quite another for them to be on time.

1. From the news report we know that ______.

A. parents are patient when teaching children time

B. parents have little idea of how to teach children time

C. children are likely to learn time quickly

D. children enjoy wearing the Flik Flak watch

2. The author doesn’t seem to believe ______.

B. a Flik Flak can help parents teach their children how to tell time

C. the Flik Flak can take children’s imagination

D. children usually have trouble telling time if they don’t wear watches

3. The underlined word handicap in Para. 1 means

A. displeasure        B. discouragement        C. disappointment     D. disadvantage

4. The United State sales manager calls the new watch " childproof" because ______.

A. it is designed to teach children to be on time

B. it proves to be effective in teaching children time

C. it is made so as not to be easily damaged by children

(·福建龙岩质检一)China reported blistering growth for the last three months of 2009 ,raising expectations of interest rate increases and other measures to head_off inflation.

China has declared that it is recovering from the global economic crisis.

Ma Jiantang, head of the National Bureau of Statistics,said Thursday the country's economy grew by 10.7 percent in the last three months of 2009.

Ma says China has managed to quickly hold back what he described as “the sliding of the national economy”. He says China has become the first country,on the whole,to achieve economic recovery and stabilization.

According to previous estimates, Ma says China's  gross domestic product for 2009 rose 8.7 percent,to nearly five trillion dollars.

This goes beyond the official growth rate target of eight percent. The government has long considered eight percent growth essential to create enough jobs for the country's more than one billion people.

At the same time, Ma says some problems and contradictions are natural.

Ma says the Chinese government will  give more priority  to  restructuring  economic  and  improving peoples' livelihood.

To reduce the effects of the global economic crisis that began in 2008 ,China loosened lending practices, cut interest rates and began massive spending programs. But the government wants to make sure those measures do not contribute to inflation, which can be politically sensitive in a country where hundreds of millions of people remain poor.

Beijing resident Ms Wang says she is worried. She says she thinks prices are rising really fast. She points to the price of cabbage, which has increased more than 10 times in the past year.

The head  of the  Chinese  Banking  Regulatory Commission, this week said the government will step up monitoring of banks and rein in lending to prevent speculative bubbles(投机泡沫) in real estate(房地产) and other assets.

The World Bank on Thursday released a report that predicts China's economy will grow by nine percent this year. This contrasts with forecasts of 2.5 percent growth rate for the United States and one percent growth for European economies in , because of weaknesses remaining from the global financial crisis.

64.What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean?

A. Prevent.         B. Begin. 

C. Continue.       D. Reduce.

65.How many measures did China take to reduce the sliding of the national economy?

A. 2.      B. 3. 

C. 4.     D. 5.

66.The global economy in  will ________.

A. increase more quickly than in 2009

B. recover immediately if proper measures are taken

C. remain weak as a result of the global financial crisis

D. remain the same standard as that in 2009

67.The passage is mainly about ________.

A. jobs created for more than one billion people

B. lending practices loosened in China in the new year

C. rapid growth of Chinese economy in last months of 2009

D. fast growth in economy leading to inflation
