Once, it was in the middle of a personal development workshop. One of the people present stood up and began   36   out diamond rings to each of the one hundred people in the room.
He was a   37   jeweler, he said, and he had made these expensive   38   as gifts to open people’s eyes to the abundance(富裕) of life.
On his fifth birthday, the man   39  , his uncle had taken him to a candy (糖果)   40   and told him that he could take   41   he wanted, and as much as he wanted.   42   he was very pleased and decided to   43   something he liked best.
The entire store was   44   to him. He had looked at the jars and plates, and he hadn’t known where to   45  . At last, he filled a bag with all his   46   candies. He didn’t take everything,   47   that feeling of being able to have whatever he wanted seemed to make him very   48  .
Since then, he said, he had been able to   49   the abundance of life. He saw the world as full of   50  , riches and beauty — all you had to do was, take your pick and fill your bag.
The sad truth is that most of us grow up with the   51   feeling —we develop a poverty mentality(貧窮心理). We   52   believe that there simply isn’t enough. We think we have to   53  , fight and struggle, so that we can get what we need and want. If we can’t   54  our hands to get,  someone else will be searching through our pockets. The   55   of that mentality is that we all have to go hungry.
Get a taste of abundance and try to have a great life.

Coal mine accidents are frequently headline makers in China, offering a plentiful supply of long lists of the dead.Before this, five major coal mine accidents since January have already claimed lives of 287 coal miners.
Once an accident happens, the safety measures are scrutinized, officials and owners responsible are punished or warned or fined.But the accidents keep happening time and again.
The background of this endless disaster is a country thirsty for energy to satisfy the appetite of its economic engine.
With the rich reserve(儲(chǔ)存)of coal and relatively limited petroleum(石油)reserve, the former makes up 67.12 percent of energy consumption.By contrast, petroleum and natural gas take about 60 percent of the energy consumption in other countries.
Such a situation is unlikely to change within a foreseeable future because the country still counts heavily on coal for more and more energy.If no measures with great effects are taken to improve the safety in the mines, the accidents will remain a long-term headache for China.
Digging coal underground is, by its nature, a dangerous job.No equipment can guarantee 100 percent safety for the miners working underground because numerous uncertainties exist.
Most of China’s coal mines are far from being mechanized.The average output of coal for each Chinese coal miner every day is 1 ton, while the number in the US coal mines, where the production is highly mechanized, is 40 tons.
Mechanized production in coal mines can cut down the number of miners who have to work on the dangerous coal face.It can also enhance the capability of the mines to detect potential danger.In this way mine accidents will be decreased.
Admittedly, the mechanized production demands financial support.
But what is the price of a life, or a dozen, a score – a hundred? Compare these awful figures with the misery they bring, heavy investment is worthy.
53.The writer’s attitude towards dealing with coal mine accidents is ________.         
A.critical    B.positive         C.unclear         D.doubtful
54.The underlined word “scrutinized” most probably means ________.               
A.made     B.examined       C.criticized        D.discussed
55.According to the writer, the best way to stop coal mine accidents is to ________.
A.perfect safety measures           B.use more natural gas
C.cut down the number of miners    D.improve mechanized production
56.The writer implies in the article that ________.
A.by improving mechanized production, we can stop coal mine accidents
B.it’s improper to depend too much on coal for energy consumption
C.officials and coal mine owners didn’t take safety measures seriously
D.losing lives costs much more than improving mechanized production

Most earthquakes occur within the upper 15 miles of the earth’s surface. But earthquakes can and do occur at all depths to about 460 miles. Their number decreases as the depth increases. At about 460 miles one earthquake occurs only every few years. Near the surface earthquakes may run as high as 100 in a month, but the yearly average does not vary much. In comparison with the total number of earthquakes each year, the number of disastrous earthquakes is very small.[JP]?
The extent of the disaster in an earthquake depends on many factors. If you carefully build a toy house with an erect set, it will still stand no matter how much you shake the table. But if you build a toy house with a pack of cards, a slight shake of the table will make it fall. An earthquake in Agadir, Morocco, was not strong enough to be recorded on distant instruments, but it completely destroyed the city. Many stronger earthquakes have done comparatively little damage. If a building is well constructed and built on solid ground, it will resist an earthquake. Most deaths in earthquakes have been due to faulty building construction or poor building sites. A third and very serious factor is panic. When people rush out into narrow streets, more deaths will result.?
The United Nations has played an important part in reducing the damage done by earthquakes. It has sent a team of experts to all countries known to be affected by earthquakes. Working with local geologists and engineers, the experts have studied the nature of the ground and the type of most practical building code for the local area. If followed, these suggestions will make disastrous earthquakes almost a thing of the past.
There is one type of earthquake disaster that little can be done about. This is the disaster caused by seismic sea waves, or tsunamis. (These are often called tidal waves, but the name is incorrect. They have nothing to do with tides.)
In certain areas, earthquakes take place beneath the sea. These submarine earthquakes sometimes give rise to seismic sea waves. The waves are not noticeable out at sea because of their long wave length. But when they roll into harbors, they pile up into walls of water 6 to 60 feet high. The Japanese call them “tsunamis”, meaning “harbor waves”, because they reach a sizable height only in harbors.
Tsunamis travel fairly slowly, at speeds up to 500 miles an hour. An adequate warning system is in use to warn all shores likely to be reached by the waves.
But this only enables people to leave the threatened shores for higher ground. There is no way to stop the oncoming wave.
65. Which of the following CANNOT be concluded from the passage??
A. The number of earthquakes is closely related to depth.?
B. Roughly the same number of earthquakes occur each year.?、
C. Earthquakes are impossible at depths over 460 miles.?
D. Earthquakes are most likely to occur near the surfaces.?
66. The destruction of Agadir is an example of_____.
A. faulty building construction?                        B. an earthquake’s strength?
C. widespread panic in earthquakes?                  D. ineffective instruments?
67. The United Nations’ experts are supposed to_____.?
A. construct strong buildings?                          B. put forward proposals?
C. detect disastrous earthquakes?                D. monitor earthquakes?
68. The significance of the slow speed of tsunamis is that people may_____.?
A. notice them out at sea?                                B. find ways to stop them?
C. be warned early enough?                      D. develop warning systems?

In Germany, English expressions are used in conversations and increasingly in written form. Advertisements are often expressed completely in English. When I go to the gym, there are “aerobic-classes (增氧健身法課程)”. We “warm up”. We go “jogging.” In business, we attend a “meeting” and we have “good connections.”
Other nations, like France, have taken action to protect their language from the influence of “Americanization”. In Germany, however, there is concern that those rules could be connected with Hitler’s Third Reich (帝國(guó)), when the language had to be pure. If the government curbed(限制)the use of English words now, this could be considered by some as a return to that terrible past.
Some German citizens are now trying to stop the use of English vocabulary in German. However, I think generally it is not a big deal to use some common English expressions as they often describe things more directly. But we should know that it is important to use English correctly. All too often, bad English is spoken or even written instead of good German. The proper use of the German language would be the better choice. However, there are some fields that require the use of English words, for example, in the high-tech communication and the Internet fields, there is no alternative to English. Also, I think sometimes I have to speak English when I introduce some scenic places to tourists.
I think you have to find a balance and decide when it is better to use good German in place of bad English or when the use of correct English words is more suitable. Languages have always changed naturally, and I disagree with a restriction by law. Some nice expressions borrowed from other languages can make a conversation more vivid.
69. By giving many examples in the first paragraph, the writer shows that __________.
A. most Germans have no difficulty in understanding English
B. English is more and more widely used in Germany
C. it is more convenient to use English in some situations
D. English has completely replaced German in Germany
70. From the passage, we can learn that when Hitler was in power, _________ in Germany.
A. all languages except English could be used
B. some foreign languages could be used
C. only the upper class could speak English
D. only the German language could be used
71. What job does the writer probably do?
A. A travel guide     B. A lawyer       C. A computer engineer     D. A teacher
72. What is the writer’s attitude towards the use of English in Germany?
A. There should be a law to protect the German language
B. It is foolish for Germans to worry about their native language
C. Germans should be encouraged to speak more English
D. Proper use of English can make conversations more colorful
