This is a dangerous world we live in. The numbers of murders goes up every year； people are dying of cancer；more people contract（感染）HIV；more teens are using drugs；etc. You know this because you’ve heard all the statistics on the news. But do you really have an accurate idea what they mean? The numbers are going up, but how do they compare to the growth in population? Are more cases of these diseases being reported because of better testing techniques, or are the diseases more common? The fact is that without knowing the background, statistics mean very little.

This growing trend of reporting only part of the information is becoming dangerous.

For example, several years ago a high school student reported dangers of the chemical known as dihydrogen monoxide. This chemical, found in most cancerous tumors（肿瘤）， is found in the blood of people drunk on alcohol, and causes complete physical and mental dependence for those who take the chemical even once. After reading his report, more than 75% of his Advanced Placement Chemistry class voted to forbid this dangerous chemical! Every one of the above statements is true, yet this chemical is necessary to all life on earth. The students made the mistake because they voted knowing only a few statements and statistics, rather than the chemical’s full background.

The point of this article is that one should be aware of what is and is not being said. When one finds a new fact or number, one should try to consider other important information before forming an opinion with only half-truths. Always remember that the author is trying to convince you of his or her own view, and will leave out information that is different to his view. For example, look again at the statistics that suggest skiing is safe. Only 32 people may die each year when skiing, while 897 die from lightning strikes, but which is really more dangerous? If you think about it, you will realize far fewer people go skiing each year than the number of people who are in danger of a lightening strike. When you think about it, skiing is more dangerous than you might at first think when looking at statistics. If we teenagers are to be left in this world, we had better be able think critically, and form our own views. rather than be easily persuaded by another’s. To be warned is to be prepared.

59．In the first paragraph, what problem does the writer want to warn us?

A. We are now living in a dangerous world.

B. We got a lot of false statistics from the media.

C. There are around us more and more murders, diseases etc.

D. Statistics alone without full background don’t give us an accurate picture of things.

60．Why does the writer use the example in the second paragraph?

A. To show the danger of reporting only part of the information.

B. To argue that high school students are easily persuaded.

C. To prove what is necessary to us might be dangerous.

D. To warn us of the harmful substances（物质）around us.

61．Relative information is often left out because      .

A. relative information is not that important

B. the author is trying to show what he or she says is true

C. too much information will make readers feel confused

D. readers are not able to analyze so much information at once

62．What is the main idea of this passage?

A. Some measures must be taken to protect our dangerous world.

B. We should learn to think critically and look at problems from all sides.

C. The growing trend of reporting only half-truths is getting out of control.

D. Teenagers ought to improve their ability of telling right from wrong.

Online Movie Rentals

It is generally accepted that the best way to learn a language is to totally involve yourself in its culture by living in the country where it is spoken.   71   Fortunately, many aspects of a country’s culture have made their way to our lives in the form of various media and entertainment outlets. Not only do they allow a peek at life, but they make excellent study material for learning the language.

What to increase your language skills and enjoy some entertainment at the same time? Tired of going down to the video rental store to rent movies?   72 

Most companies require customers to operate on the following model:

●Select and sign up for a payment program online, which will determine how many movies you can rent and hold at any one time.

●  73  You can look up movies by title, actor or director. Then movies will be sent to you within 1~3 days, and shipping is covered by the company.

●Watch the movies, often with no late fees.

●  74 

●Check these sites for specific, up – to – date details.

Once you receive the movies, how can you improve your language skills with them? Well, just sitting in front of the TV with a drink in one hand isn’t a bad way to relax, but you won’t learn much. While seeing a movie you should take notes of new expressions. Write them down and look them up in a good English – English dictionary to understand their possible meanings.   75  If you don’t’ know how to use words, learning vocabulary will lose all meaning.

         A．Return the movies in a prepaid return envelope.

         B．If you haven’t finished on time, you can delay returning.

         C．Now, more and more companies are offering customers the chance to rent movies online.

         D．Then, think of some sample sentences for each word.

         E．Choose the movie you want to watch, generally 1~3 at a time.

         F．Watch movies as long as you have nothing to do.

         G．While many find packing up and moving to a country is not a practical option.

--- What about          concert?

    --- It was too boring, you know,        concert for me.

         A．a; the          B．the; the      C．a; /     D．the; a

When you think about math, you probably don’t think about breaking the law, solving mysteries or finding criminals. But a mathematician in Maryland does, and he has come up with mathematical tools to help police find criminals.

People who solve crimes look for patterns that might reveal (揭示) the identity of the criminal. It’s long been believed, for example, that criminals will break the law closer to where they live, simply because it’s easier to get around in their own neighborhood. If police see a pattern of robberies in a certain area, they may look for a suspect who lives near the crime scenes. So, the farther away from the area a crime takes place, the less likely it is that the same criminal did it.

But Mike O’Leary, a mathematician at Towson University in Maryland, says that this kind of approach may be too simple. He says that police may get better clues to the location of a criminal’s home base by combining these patterns with a city’s layout (布局) and historical crime records.

The records of past crimes contain geographical information and can reveal easy targets — that is, the kind of stores that might be less difficult to rob. Because these stores are along roads, the locations of past crimes contain information about where major streets and intersections are. O’Leary is writing a new computer program that will quickly provide this kind of information for a given city. His program also includes information about the people who live in the city, and information about how a criminal’s patterns change with age. It’s been shown, for example, that the younger the criminal, the closer to home the crime.

Other computer programmers have worked on similar software, but O’Leary’s uses more math. The mathematician plans to make his computer program available, free of charge, to police departments around the country.

The program is just one way to use math to fight crime. O’Leary says that criminology — the study of crime and criminals — contains a lot of good math problems. “I feel like I’m in a gold mine and I’m the only one who knows what gold looks like,” he says. “It’s a lot of fun.”

61. To find criminals, police usually _________.

A. check who are on the crime scene

B. seek help from local people

C. depend on new mathematical tools

D. focus on where crimes take place

62. O’Leary is writing a computer program that _________.

A. uses math to increase the speed of calculation

B. tells the identity of a criminal in a certain area

C. provides the crime records of a given city

D. shows changes in criminals’ patterns

63. By “I’m the only one who knows what gold looks like”, O’Leary means that he _________.

A. is better at finding gold than others

B. is the only one who uses math to make money

C. knows best how to use math to help solve crimes

D. has more knowledge of gold than other mathematicians

64. What do you know about O’Leary according to the passage?

A. He is a man full of impractical imagination.

B. He is a man full of self-confidence.

C. He is a man who is talkative but lazy.

D. He is a man who doesn’t like mathematics.

65. What is the main idea of the text?

A. Math could help police find criminals.

B. Criminals live near where crimes occur.

C. Crime records could be used to fight crime.

D. Computer software works in preventing crimes.
