When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said the phone . Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
　　Point 1: The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4∶00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?
　　Point 2: The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance to her rescue.
　　Point 3: The mobile removes our secret. It allows Marketing Manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
　　Point 4: The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “ We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near - but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks !”
　　Point 5 : The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously on chat lines（at least my daughter does. I wouldn't know what to talk about）. We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts （ if you know any） while they’re space walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access the Internet, the biggest library on earth.
Think and answer:
1．How do you understand“ Point l: The telephone creates the need to communicate, …” ?
___________________________________________________________________________.
2．What’s people’s attitude towards mobile phones?
___________________________________________________________________________.
3．What does he underlined word“ simultaneously” most probably mean?
___________________________________________________________________________.
参考答案：
1. People communicate more since the telephone has been created.
2. Mobile phones bring convenience to people.
3. at the same time

For some time past, it has been widely accepted that babies and other creature - learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards”, and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early time, had to be directly connected to such basic physiological“drives”as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.
It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except success in sight.
Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to“reward”the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements , such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children’s responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement“ turned on” some lights - and indeed that they were able to learn some more turns to bring about this result, for example, two left or two right, or even to make as many as three turns to one side.
Papousek’s light experiment was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the light closely although they would“ smile and speak” when the light was on. Papousek concluded that it was not the sight of the lights which pleased them. It was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and then there is a basic human nature to make sense of the world and bring it under control.
Think and answer:
1． What do babies learn to do according to the writer?
__________________________________________________________________________.
2．What did Paponsek notice in his studies？
__________________________________________________________________________.
3． Why do babies make learned movements of the head in Papousek’s experiment?
__________________________________________________________________________.
4．Why would the babies“smile and speak”at the lights?
__________________________________________________________________________.
参考答案：
1. What babies learn to do is to bring them a feeling of success
2. A baby would continue the simple movements without being given milk
3. Because they would like to have the lights turned on
4. Because they succeeded in“turning on”the lights

To me, life without music would not be exciting. I realize that this is not true for everybody. Many people get along quite well without going to the concert, or listening to the record. But music plays an important part in everyone’s life, whether he realizes it or not. Try to imagine, for example, what films or TV plays would be like without music. Would the feelings, the moving plot (情节), and the greatest interests , be as exciting or dramatic (戏剧性)? I’m not sure about it.
Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning –the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we discover them in our everyday life too—in the rhythm(旋律) of the sea, the melody of a bird in the woods and so on. So music surely has meaning for everyone, in some way or other. And, of course, it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said, “Through music a child enters a world of beauty, expresses himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong.”
Think and answer:
1. What does the writer say more about in the passage?
___________________________________________________________________________.
2. From the text , what do you think many people don’t realize?
________________________________________________________________ .
3. In the writer’s opinion , what would happen if there were no music in films of TV plays?
_____________________________________________________________________ .
4. What does the underlined word “melody” mean in the text?
参考答案：
1. Importance of music
2. Many people don’t realize the importance of music
3. We would lose some of the audience
4. Singing

A few days ago I asked my sons’ governess（女家庭教师）Julia to come into my study. “Be seated, Julia, ”I said, “Let’s settle our accounts. I guess you most likely need some money, but maybe you’re too polite to mention it. Now then, we agreed on thirty dollars a month...”
“Forty.”
“No, thirty. I made a note of it. I always pay our governess thirty. Well, um, you’ve been here two months, so...”
“Two months and five days.”
“Exactly two months. I made a special note of it. That means you have sixty dollars coming to you. Take off nine Sundays... you know you didn’t work with Tom on Sundays, you only took walks. And three holidays... ”Julia was biting her finger nail nervously, her face red, but - not a word.
“Three holidays, therefore take off twelve dollars. Four days Tom was sick and there were no lessons, as you were occupied only with Dick. Three days you had a toothache and my wife gave you permission not to work after lunch. Twelve and seven - nineteen. Take nineteen off ... that leaves. hmm.... forty one dollars. Correct？”
Julia’s left eye reddened with tears welling up. Her chin trembled; she coughed nervously and blew her nose, but - still not a word.
“Around New Year’s Day you broke a teacup and a saucer; take off two dollars. The cup cost more, it was a treasure of the family, but- forget it. When didn’t I take a loss! Then, due to your neglect （疏忽）, Tom climbed a tree and tore his jacket; take away ten. Also due to your carelessness the maid stole Dick’s shoes. You ought to watch everything! You get paid for it. So, that means five more dollars off. The tenth of January I gave ten dollars.”
“You didn’t. ”sobbed Julia.
“But I made a note of it.”
“Well... if you say so.”
“Take twenty seven from forty one -that leaves fourteen.”
Both her eyes were filled with tears. Beads of sweat stood on the thin pretty little nose. Poor girl!
“Only once was I given any money,” she whispered, her voice trembling, “and that was by your wife. Three dollars, nothing more.”
“Really? You see now, and I didn’t know that! Take three from fourteen.. leaves eleven. Here’s your money, my dear. Three, three, three, one and one. Here it is !”
I handed her eleven dollars. She took them and pocketed them.
“Merci （法语: 谢谢）,”she whispered.
I jumped to my feet and started pacing the room. I was overcome with anger. “For what, this - ‘merci’?” I asked.
“For the money. ”
“But you know I’ve cheated you - robbed you ! I have actually stolen from you ! Why this‘merci’？”
“In my other places they didn’t give me anything at all.”
“They didn’t give you anything? No wonder! I played a little joke on you, a cruel lesson, just to teach you... I m going to give you all the eighty dollars! Here they are in the envelope all ready for you... Is it really possible to be so spineless （懦弱）?Why didn’t you protest? Why were you silent? Is it possible in this world to be without teeth and claws（爪）—to be such a fool?”
Embarrassed, she smiled. And I could read her expression,“It is possible.”
I asked her pardon for the cruel lesson and, to her great surprise, gave her the eighty dollars. She murmured her little“merci”several times and went out. I looked after her and thought,“How easy it is to crush the weak in this world !”

___________________________________________________________________________.
5．From the story, what do you think about Julia?

参考答案：
1.The writer settle their accounts.
2. Julia’s acceptance of injustice
3. He was actually telling the governess to protect her right
4. He wanted to show his sympathy for the mental state of those exploited
5. She is too weak to protect herself at all.

“Mummy, I don’t know what to play with. ”Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. “You’ve got a room full of toys!” his mother says, impatiently, In fact it is the jumble (杂乱的一堆) of toys which is to blame for four - year - old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed （packed）animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother’s desk or following her into the kitchen saying: “Mummy, I am bored.”
A family therapist（心理医生）explains why children lose interest when they have a whole “toy shop”at home : “According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about.”What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child’s knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will help. Lyn is the mother of four - year - old Jessie, and friends may also small set of shelves in her child’s room holds the toys and books that are the current（at present）favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired from a cupboard in another room. The box of “old” toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is “bored”, they also get something from her cupboard—it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn’t seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the comer, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something“fresh”to play with.

Mother & Child
It was Christmas 1961. I was teaching in a small town in Ohio where my twenty-seven third graders eagerly anticipated the great day of gifts giving.
A tree covered with tinsel and gaudy paper chains graced one corner. In another rested a manger scene produced from cardboard and poster paints by chubby, and sometimes grubby, hands. Someone had brought a doll and placed it on the straw in the cardboard box that served as the manger. It didn't matter that you could pull a string and hear the blue-eyed, golden-haired dolly say, "My name is Susie." "But Jesus was a boy baby!" one of the boys proclaimed. Nonetheless, Susie stayed.
Each day the children produced some new wonder -- strings of popcorn, hand-made trinkets, and German bells made from wallpaper samples, which we hung from the ceiling. Through it all she remained aloof, watching from afar, seemingly miles away. I wondered what would happen to this quiet child, once so happy, now so suddenly withdrawn. I hoped the festivities would appeal to her. But nothing did. We made cards and gifts for mothers and dads, for sisters and brothers, for grandparents, and for each other. At home the students made the popular fried marbles and vied with one another to bring in the prettiest ones. " You put them in a hot frying pan, Teacher. And you let them get real hot, and then you watch what happens inside. But you don't fry them too long or they break. "So, as my gift to them, I made each of my students a little pouch for carrying their fried marbles. And I knew they had each made something for me: bookmarks carefully cut, colored, and sometimes pasted together; cards and special drawings; liquid embroidery doilies, hand-fringed, of course.
The day of gift-giving finally came. We oohed and aahed over our handiwork as the presents were exchanged. Through it all, she sat quietly watching. I had made a special pouch for her, red and green with white lace. I wanted very much to see her smile. She opened the package so slowly and carefully. I waited but she turned away. I had not penetrated the wall of isolation she had built around herself.
After school the children left in little groups, chattering about the great day yet to come when long-hoped-for two-wheelers and bright sleds would appear beside their trees at home. She lingered, watching them bundle up and go out the door. I sat down in a child-sized chair to catch my breath, hardly aware of what was happening, when she came to me with outstretched hands, bearing a small white box, unwrapped and slightly soiled, as though it had been held many times by unwashed, childish hands. She said nothing. "For me ?" I asked with a weak smile. She said not a word, but nodded her head. I took the box and gingerly opened it. There inside, glistening green, a fried marble hung from a golden chain. Then I looked into that elderly eight-year-old face and saw the question in her dark brown eyes. In a flash I knew -- she had made it for her mother, a mother she would never see again, a mother who would never hold her or brush her hair or share a funny story, a mother who would never again hear her childish joys or sorrows. A mother who had taken her own life just three weeks before.
I held out the chain. She took it in both her hands, reached forward, and secured the simple clasp at the back of my neck. She stepped back then as if to see that all was well. I looked down at the shiny piece of glass and the tarnished golden chain, then back at the giver. I meant it when I whispered," Oh, Maria, it is so beautiful. She would have loved it. "Neither of us could stop the tears. She stumbled into my arms and we wept together. And for that brief moment I became her mother, for she had given me the greatest gift of all: herself.
妈妈与孩子
那是1961年的圣诞节。我在俄亥俄州的一个小镇上教小学三年级。班上27个孩子都在积极参加"礼物赠送日"的活动。
教室的一角被一棵树装点得熠熠生辉，树上缀满了金银丝帛和华丽的彩纸。教室的另一角是一个涂着海报油彩由纸板制成的马槽，这出自孩子们那胖乎乎、脏兮兮的小手。有人带来了一个娃娃，把它放在纸板槽里的稻草上(假装小耶稣)。只要拉拉它身上的一条细绳，这个蓝眼睛、金发的娃娃就会说道，"我叫苏西"，不过这都没有关系。一个男孩提出："耶稣可是个小男孩呀!"不过苏西还是留了下来。
每天孩子们都会做点儿新玩意--爆米花串成的细链子、手工做的小装饰品和墙纸样做的德国式风铃，我们把这些风铃挂在了天花板上。但自始至终，她都是孤零零地远远观望，仿佛是隔了一道几里长的障碍。我猜想着这个沉默的孩子发生了什么事，原来那个快乐的孩子怎么突然变得沉默寡言起来。我希望节日的活动能吸引她，可还是无济于事。我们制作了许多卡片和礼物，准备把它们送给爸爸妈妈、兄弟姐妹、祖父母和身边的同学。学生们在家里做了当时很流行“油炸"玻璃弹子，并且相互比着，要把最好看的拿来。"老师，把玻璃弹子放在热油锅里，让它们烧热，然后看看里面的变化。但不要炸得时间过长否则会破裂。"所以，我给每个学生做了一个装"油炸弹子"的小袋作为礼物送给他们。我知道他们每个人也都为我做了礼物：仔细剪裁、着色，或已粘集成串的书签；贺卡和特别绘制的图片；透明的镶边碗碟垫布，当然是手工编制的流苏。
赠送礼物的那天终于到了。在交换礼物时我们为对方亲手做的小礼品不停地欢呼叫好。而整个过程，她只是安静地坐在那儿看着。我为她做的小袋很特别，红绿相间还镶着白边。我非常想看到她笑一笑。她打开包装，动作又慢又小心。我等待着，但是她却转过了身。我还是没能穿过她在自己周围树起的高墙，这堵墙将她与大家隔离了开来。
放学后，学生们三三俩俩地离开了，边走边说着即将到来的圣诞节：家中的圣诞树旁将发现自己心系已久的自行车和崭新发亮的雪橇。她慢慢地走在后面，看着大家拥挤着走出门外。我坐在孩子们的小椅子上稍稍松了口气，对要发生的事没有一点准备。这时她向我走来，双手拿着一个白色的盒子向我伸过来。盒子没有打包装，稍有些脏。好像是被孩子未洗过的小手摸过了好多遍。她没有说话。"给我的吗?"我微微一笑。她没出声，只是点点头。我接过盒子，非常小心地打开它。盒子里面有一条金色的链子，上面坠着一块闪闪发光的“油炸"玻璃弹子。然后我看着她的脸，虽只有8岁，可却是成人的表情。在她深棕色的眼睛里我找到了问题的答案。我在一瞬间明白过来--这是她为妈妈做的项链，她再也见不到的妈妈，再也不能抱她、给她梳头或一起讲故事的妈妈。她的妈妈已再也不能分享她充满童稚的快乐，分担她孩子气的忧伤。就在3个星期前她的妈妈离开了人世。
我拿起那条链子。她用双手接过它，向前探了探身，在我的脖子后把简易的项链钩系好。然后她向后退了几步，好像在看看是否合适。我低下头看着闪闪发亮的玻璃珠和已失去光泽的金色链子，然后抬起头望着她。我很认真地轻声说道：“哦，玛丽亚，这链子真漂亮。你妈妈一定会喜欢的。"我们已无法抑制住泪水。她踉踉跄跄地扑进我的怀里，我们都哭了。在那短暂的一刻我成了她的妈妈，而她送给了我一份最珍贵的礼物：她的信任和爱。

4.When you finish reading the book，you will have__________ better understanding of_________.
A．a；the B．the；a C．不填；the D．a：不填
【答案及解析】 D 表示对某东西有所了解时，习惯在understanding前加不定冠词；而life泛指生活时，前面不用任何冠词，故答案选D。
5.(2004辽宁卷22)John Smith，a successful businessman，has a _________car．
A．1arge German white B．1arge white German
C．white large German D．German large white
【答案及解析】 B 考查多个形容词作定语时的位置关系。请看分类说明中的解释(总限观，大形龄，色国材，目的用途名词前)。而large表大小，white表颜色，German表国籍。
6. (2004四川卷33)I must be getting fat--I can ________d0 my trousers up．
A．fairly B．hardly C．nearly D．seldom
【答案及解析】 B 此题考查副词的用法。选项B表“几乎不”；选项A意思是：相当，颇；C意思是：几乎、差不多；而D表不常做。根据前句must可知：此句表示推测，后句表示前句所推测的依据。那么，选项A、C、D均与句子意思不符。因此答案选B。意思是：我肯定发胖了，因为我的裤子几乎穿不进去了。
7.We’re going to the bookstore in John’s car．You can come with us ________you can meet us there later．
A．but B．and C．or D．then
【答案及解析】 C 该句考查并列连词在句中的用法。因为句中的意思是“选择”，所以用了or。but表示转折；and表示并列；then表示递进。这几个词均不合句意。译文：我们要乘坐约翰的车去书店。你可以和我们一起去，也可以随后和我们在那里见面。
8.(2004江苏卷24)He got to the station early，________missing his train．
A．in case of B．instead of C．for fear of D．in search of

9.You can take anything from the shelf and read，but please ________the books when you’ve finished with them．
A. put on B．put down C．put back D．put off
【答案及解析】 C 本题考查动词辨析，A表穿戴或上演等；B表示放下或记下等；C表示放回原处；D表示推迟。根据语境，故选C。
10.--________for the glass!
--It’s OK．I’m wearing shoes．
A．Look out B．Walk out C．Go out D．Set out
【答案及解析】 A考查短语动词的意思区别及与语境意思的联系。首先我们要正确区别短语动词的意思，选项A的意思是“当心，小心”；B是“罢工、罢课、退席”；C是“出去，滚出去”；D是“出发，开始”。再根据句子的语境，从后者的回答中可推知：显然是后者弄出了什么声音，前者以为他打碎了杯子，才说出上面那句话，叫他当心别把杯子打碎了。故答案选A。
11. __________he come, the problem would be settled.
A. Would B. Should C. Shall D. If
【答案及解析】 B 本题是对将来情况的一种假设。英语中，如果虚拟条件句的谓语部分有should, had或were时，可把if省去，而把should, had, were放在从句主语前，构成主谓部分倒装。
12. Without your help, I ＿＿＿＿the exam last term.
A. failed in B. would have failed C. wouldn’t pass D. would fail
【答案及解析】 B 本句属于隐含式虚拟语气。句中without短语相当于一个与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句，故选B。
13.(2003全国卷24)--Sorry，Joe．I didn’t mean to…
--Don’t call me “Joe”．I’m Mr. Parker to you，and ________you forget it!
A．do B．didn’t C．did D．don’t
【答案及解析】 D 考查感叹疑问句的用法。其形式虽是疑问，实则表示感叹。它多以否定词don’t开头并以感叹号结尾，其表达的意义则是肯定。译文 “对不起，乔，我的意思不是……”，“不要叫我乔。对你来说我是帕克先生，你可不要忘了!”
14. __________the fog, we should have reached our school.
A. Because of B. In spite of C. In case of D. But for
【答案及解析】 D。考查与过去事实相反的虚拟语气。but for（要不是）引导的介词短语，相当于if it hadn’t been the fog。
15. If I__________ you, __________more attention to English idioms and phrases.
A. was； shall pay B. am； will pay
C. would be； would pay D. were； would pay
【答案及解析】 .D 该题表示与现在事实相反的假设，从句谓语动词用过去式，be用were，主句用would do。
16.Without electricity human life__________quite different today.
A. is B. will be C. would have been D. would be
【答案及解析】 D 此题表示与现在事实相反的假设，主句用would/might/could+do。Without electricity = If there were no electricity
17.________the general state of his health，it may take him a while to recover from the operation．
A. Given B．To give C．Giving D．Having given

--You ________have my computer if you don’t take care of it．
A．shan’t B．might not C．needn’t D．shouldn’t
【答案及解析】 A 考查情态动词的意思和用法。选项B表示可能性；C表示没有必要；D表示责备；只有A用语二、三人称表示表示说话人的意图、允诺、警告、命令、决心等意思，故答案选A。
19. You didn’t let me drive. If we__________in turn, you__________ so tired.
A. drove； didn’t get B. drove； wouldn’t get
C. were driving； wouldn’t get D. had driven； wouldn’t have got
【答案及解析】 D 此题表示与过去事实相反的假设，主句用would have done,从句用had done。
20.(2003安徽春季卷27)Naturally，after I told her what to do，my daughter ________go and do the opposite!
A．may B．can C．must D．should
【答案及解析】 C 从句意及opposite可看出，本句的意思是在述说女儿天生叛逆的性格。Naturally意思是“生来就是这样”，must表示与说话人的愿望相反，意思是“偏偏，偏要”，因此整个句子的意思是“我女儿生来就如此，我叫她做这件事，她偏要做相反的事”。
21. If he hadn’t hesitated for a moment before kicking the ball, he _______a goal.
A. had scored B. scored C. would score D. would have scored
【答案及解析】 D 根据从句hadn’t hesitated可以判断用虚拟语气。表示过去发生的事要用would have scored。
22.What would have happened ________, a far as the river bank?
A. Clinton had walked farther B. if Clinton should walk farther
C. had Clinton walked farther D. if Clinton walked farther
【答案及解析】 C 考查虚拟语气。主句的谓语动词用了would have happened,所以从句的谓语动词要用过去完成时。在虚拟语气中，如果条件状语从句中的if省略，该句要倒装。译文：如果Clinton走远一点，走到河边，会发生什么事呢？
23.It is said that the United States uses ________energy as the whole of Europe．
A．as twice B．twice much C．twice much as D．twice as much
【答案及解析】 D 本题考查倍数关系的表达。有三种表达方式：1．倍数+as + adj. +as+其它；2．倍数+比较级+than+其它；3．倍数+the height／size／weight／length／…+ of+其它。由此可知本题正确答案为D。
24. -- Where ?
-- I got stuck in the heavy traffic, or I＿＿＿＿＿here earlier.
A. did you go； had arrived B. are you； would come
C. were you; would come D. have you been； would have been
【答案及解析】 D or引出的一个分句表示对过去的情况进行假设，故用would have done。
25. I lost your address, otherwise I＿＿＿＿you long before.
A. had visited B. have visited C. would have visited D. should visit
【答案及解析】 C 本题为与过去事实相反的假设，在以otherwise引导的并列分句中用虚拟语气，时间概念可由上下文看出。
26. I__________ you a beautiful present for your birthday, but I was short of money at that time.
A. would buy B. had bought C. would like to have bought D. must have bought
【答案及解析】 C 从but引导的分句可看出,前一分句是与过去事实相反的假设。
27.Some of the tapes belong to me，while the rest are ___________．
A．him and her B．his and hers C．his and her D．him and hers

--________.
A．Please go ahead B．That’s all right
C．Not at all D．Take your time
【答案及解析】 D Take your time的意思是“别着急”。译文：“恐怕这周内我完不成这本书。…‘别着急。”Please go ahead意为：说吧，做吧，是不阻止别人请求的一种答语；That’s all right意为：不谢，没关系。但从对话可知前者是在说明一个事实：一周内完不成，而没道歉或感谢之意，故排除B。Not at all用法等同于That’s all right。

It came with devastating force, a natural disaster of strange intensity that shocked the world and killed tens of thousands. The waters have now receded, but disease and food and water shortages trouble a number of countries around the Indian Ocean. Millions of survivors face serious problems.
The number of survivors in need of food aid after the Indian Ocean disaster has climbed to 5 million people. They stretch from Somalia to Thailand, and the figure could rise further, the United Nations has said.
Relief teams hope to reach all of the estimated 700 000 hungry in Sri Lanka within three more days. It could take longer before enough food aid gets to the nearly 1 million people in need in hard-to-reach parts of Indonesia. Another serious problem is the need for purified water.
Although aid had poured in from all over the world to the disaster areas, “Logistics is the big problem here—just getting the stuff out to people who need it,” said Ron Libby, emergency management specialist at the USA agency for International Development.
Relief efforts are hindered by the difficulty of delivering aid to the more than 1000 islands scattered across hundreds of kilometers of ocean.
For those who survived the tsunami's force, disease is now the No.1 problem. Five million people are short of water, food and basic sanitation across the region. World Health Organization(WHO) crisis chief David Navarro said 50 000 more people could die from disease and other causes, as has been the case in previous humanitarian emergencies.
WHO said it had already received a handful of reports of malaria(疟疾) and dengue fever(登革热) and hundreds of reports of diarrhea(腹泻) and infected wounds. It said millions of water purification tablets had been sent to Asia, along with sanitation engineers to rebuild water sanitation infrastructure.
Psychologists are warning that mental health problems caused by the tsunami could prove harder to resolve than the physical damage.
Some survivors say they are plagued by recurring nightmares about walls of water. Many locals are afraid to return to beachside homes. Officials also warn that suicide rates could rise dramatically as parents struggle with guilt at losing children.
Psychologists estimate that 20 to 30 per cent of people who face traumatic events eventually develop symptoms, such as alcohol abuse, lack of concentration at work and an inability to develop close relationships.
Although the Thai Government has offered to build temporary beachside housing, many refugee families are refusing to come down from the hills. Others are afraid to go back to jobs on the sea.
Over 150 000 people were killed by the tsunami, but hundreds and thousands more have been left with no means to earn a living.
In the village of Akirapettai in India, all that is left is the twisted wreckage of the fishing fleet. Dakshina Murti, a fisherman, not only lost three family members, but also lost his boats, his nets, everything.
“Everything's gone,” he says. With no government aid so far, all he has is a wreck. There are several million people who suffered the same experience. Homes have been destroyed, as well as wharves, docks, and sheds.
For now, rebuilding the economy remains a distant concept.
1. This passage is mainly about _________that happened around the Indian Oceans.
A. the causes of the tsunami B. the result after the tsunami
C. the sign of the tsunami D. the warning of the tsunami
2. According to what the United Nations has said, the number of survivors in need of food aid after the disaster _________.
A. is not more than 5 million B. is less than 5 million

For nearly a century before there was such a thing as a space program, a view of space was possible. People could see full views of the Moon, explore Mars(探测火星),and study the outer space beauty. All of this was made possible by a small group of artist-astronomers(天文艺术家) who worked to show people how other worlds in space might look.
Lucien Rudaux, a French artist, was the first to use his artistic ability and his knowledge of astronomy in art. His paintings show a mixture of skilled observations, brilliant imagination and careful attention. As a result, many of his works have come surprisingly close to actual conditions on distant planets. His painting of Mars included moonlike craters(火山口) that were first photographed by the astronauts in 1965.His 1930 painting of a dust storm looks remarkably like a photograph of a storm taken by the astronauts in 1976.
The artist-astronomers, including Rudaux, made people interested in outer space by painting what turned out to be exact portraits of the planets.
5.The passage tells us _________.
A. the surprising exactness of space artists B. the popular success of Lucien Rudaux

Over a hundred years ago people in London were surprised to see a very unusual boat come sailing up the Thames River. The boat was eighty feet long flat-bottomed, with big wooden eyes on both sides in the front and was colorfully painted at the back.
People came to know that it was a sailing boat from Fuzhou in distant China. The boat had sailed round the Cape of Good Hope(好望角) up the western coast of Africa, and finally to England. It had covered fifteen thousand miles—more than half of the distance round the world.
Although it was unexpected, the Chinese were warmly welcomed. The boat carried goods such as silk and tea as well as a number of gifts from the Emperor of China for the Queen of England.
People had always mistakenly thought of the Chinese as a people not used to sea. However, from centuries of trading and sailing in dangerous seas, the Chinese had learned how to build good boats and sailed them well. The coming of this sailing boat to London proved once again that the Chinese could sail to distant countries in the world.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Other burst with anger, and scream and yell(咆哮).But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution(解决办法) is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
13. “Damaging emotion” means that _________.
A. the emotion is harmless
B. the emotion is harmful
C. the feeling is very strong
D. the feeling is hard
14. What statement is right?
A. Were you angry, you would be cancered (得癌症).
B. Once you are angry, you must be cancered.
C. Angry as you are often, you can't be cancered.
D. Anger may cause you a cancer.

It was four o'clock when we left Micatlan, and we traveled quickly until it became almost completely dark. It was our intention to return to our general quarters in Atlacomulco that night. We had a long journey ahead of us, especially because it had been decided there was no way we would try to cross the ravines again at night, since they were considered far too dangerous. Furthermore, an eclipse of the moon was expected, and, in fact, while we were crossing an open field, the moon appeared on the horizon, half in shadow, a rare and beautiful sight.
After a few hours of riding, we suddenly realized that we had lost our way, and worse still, had no way of finding it again. Night had fallen and there was not a single hut in sight, only great plains and mountains and the lowing of distant bulls all around us. We continued on ahead, trusting in luck, though it was difficult to say where she had brought us. By good fortune, our advance riders ran into two Indians, a man and a boy, who agreed to guide us their village and no further.
After an interminable and exhausting road, which we traveled at a brisk trot, the barking of several dogs announced an Indian village. In the dying light, we could just make out cane huts, firmly situated between the banana trees, with fenced gardens in front of each one. Our convoy stopped in front of one particular hut, a kind of inn or shop for alcohol, where a naked goblin-like figure, the ideal husband for a witch, was serving cheap brandy to the Indians, most of whom were already drunk.
We dismounted and threw ourselves to the ground, too tired to even think. Someone found us, God knows how, a cup of dreadful hot chocolate. We began to realize that we were completely lost, and so it was agreed to give up our attempt to reach Atlacomulco that night. Instead, we should head for the village of “E1 Puente”, where our guides know a Spanish family, made up of several unmarried brothers, who , without any doubt, would be delighted to offer us a safe refuge for the rest of the night. We remounted and began our journey, a little restored after the pause in our journey and the dreadful hot chocolate.
17. Where did we travel to?
A. El Puente. B. The cane huts. C. Atlacomulco. D. An Indian Village.
18. When we traveled at night_________.
A. there was a good guide leading us
B. there was a full moon in the sky
C. we could hardly see anything
D. we could see everything around clearly
19. When we lost our way we believed that_________.
A. we should stay where we were for rescue
B. we should go on to seek after our fortune
C. we should go back where we started
D. we should ask the Indians for help
20. When we reached the inn-like hut_________.
A. someone served alcohol and hot chocolate at once
B. we had a good sleep
C. we had a good drink
D. we were too exhausted to ask for anything
