In white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails,Jingqiu gives off an air of great "pure beauty" in Zhang Yimou's new movie Under the Hawthorn Tree.
The film tells the story of the sad romance of Jingqiu and a handsome young man named Laosan. Set at the end of the "cultural revolution" (1966-1976) ,the pair managed to fall in love although they came from different political environments.
Before it was released,moviegoers speculated on just what this "pure beauty" could be. Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu―a character so innocent that she believed simply lying on the same bed with a man would make her pregnant.
It was 18-year-old Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd. According to Zhang,Zhou had "eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside". Born of an ordinary worker's family,the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.
While some teenagers consider such " pure beauty" illusory,others believe that it speaks of something soulful.
Purity is all about the innocence that shines through from within,thinks 16-year-old Tan Mengxi of Nanjing.
"Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced. However,it doesn't mean an ignorant or naive person. So,a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently. This purity doesn't pass with time," she said.
( ) 5. What image does Jingqiu give to audiences in the movie Under the Hawthorn Tree"!
A. A simple girl. B. A pure girl.
C. A romantic girl. D. A silent girl.
( ) 6. What kind of girls looks pure according to the passage?
A. A girl in white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails.
B. A girl has eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside.
C. A girl who was born into an ordinary worker's family.
D. A girl wears accessories and makeup.
( ) 7. What's the opinion of Tan Mengxi about purity?
A. It is of whether someone is ignorant or naive.
B. Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperi?enced.
C. It is of whether someone is always enthusiastic.
D. Purity is a matter of internal quality and doesn't pass with time.
( ) 8. Which do you think is the best title for the passage?
A. What Makes a Pure Girl?

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants,and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock,the salesman promptly produces it,and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well,the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes,with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction.
For a man,slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants,or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman,as the name implies,tries to sell the customer something else,he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute impolitely;he does so with skill:"I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is:" This is the right color and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants,and she is only" having a look round". She is always open to persuasion;indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her,even by what companions tell her. She will try on any thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes,most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another,to and from often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
( ) 1. The passage mainly talks about .
A. how women go about buying clothes
B. women are better at shopping than men
C. differences between men and women shoppers
D. a man goes shopping because he needs something
( ) 2. The underlined sentence "the price is a secondary consideration" in the first paragraph means when a man is shopping .
A. he buys good quality things,so long as they are not too dear
B. he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things
C. he often buy things without giving the matter proper thought
D. he buys whatever he likes without considering its value ( ) 3. 1 What does a man do when he cannot get exactly what he wants?
A. He usually does not buy anything.
B. So long as the style is right,he buys the thing.
C. He buys a similar thing because of the color he wants.
D. At least two of his requirements must be met before he buys.
( ) 4. What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?
A. Men go shopping based on need,but women never.
B. Men do not try clothes on in a shop while women do.
C. Women bargain for their clothes,but men do not.
D. The time they take over buying clothes.

A machine which makes water out of air could become the greatest household invention since the microwave.
Using the same technology as a dehumidifier (除濕器) ,the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water by getting it from a limitless source―the air.
The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countries,but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage.
The machine works by drawing in damp air through a filter and over a cooling element which changes it into water droplets. It call produce up to 12 liters a day. The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over,as the humidity (濕度) in the air increases. In keeping with its ecodevelopment,the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three light bulbs.
Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said, "The demand for water is off the chart. People ar looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable."
The machine,which is about 3 feet wide,is likely to cost £800 when it goes on sale her in the spring. Its maker,Canadian firm Element Four,estimates that a liter of water will cos around 20 pence to produce.
Environmentalists claim half the world's population will face water shortage because o climate change by 2080. One in five humans is said to lack access to safe drinking water.
The Water Mill is not effective in areas with below about 30 percent relative humidity but with average relative humidity in England of more than 70 percent that won't be much o an issue here.
( ) 5. According to the author,the biggest advantage of the machine is its .

I just sat still and didn't say anything while my husband and I were informed that two-year-old Kristi was retarded (智力遲頓的) .
When Kristi was old enough to attend school,we enrolled her in our neighborhood school's kindergarten at age seven. However,positive things began to happen to Kristi in her school,and to her schoolmates,too. When boasting (自夸) of their own accomplishments,Kristi's classmates always praised her as well; "Kristi got all her spelling words right today." No one added that her spelling list was easier than anyone else's.
Dunng Kristi's second year in school,there was a competition based on the year's music and physical education activities. Kristi was far behind in both music and motor coordination (運動協(xié)調) .My husband and I feared the day as well.
On the day of the program,Kristi pretended to be sick. Desperately I wanted to keep her home. But at last I pushed her onto the school bus.
Just as I had forced my daughter to go to school, now I forced myself to go to the program. When it was time for Kristi' s group to perform, I knew why Kristi had been worried. Her class was divided into relay teams. With her limp and slow,clumsy reactions,she would surely hold up her team.
The performance went surprisingly well,until it was time for the gunnysack (黃麻袋) race. Now each child had to climb into a sack from a standing position,jump to a goal line,return and climb out of the sack.
Kristi stood near the end of her line of players,looking nervous.
But as Kristi's turn to participate neared,a change took place in her team. The tallest boy in the line stepped behind Kristi and placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood a little ahead of her. The moment the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack,those two boys grabbed the sack and held it open while the tall boy lifted Kristi and dropped her neatly into it. A girl in front of Kristi took her hand and supported her briefly until Kristi gained her balance. Then off she jumped,smiling and proud.
In the cheers of teachers,schoolmates and parents,I secretly thanked God for the warm,understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.
( ) 5. In the gunnysack race the second player should first .
A. climb into a sack B. wait for another player

A. Four children helped Kristi in the gunnysack race.
B. Kristi went to kindergarten at the same age as other children.
C. The other children and teachers treated Kristi as a normal child.
D. Kristi was diagnosed to be retarded when she was two years old.

Rx Laughter is a nonprofit international charity. We research and implement (carry out) initiatives (計劃,措施) that use comedy and humor in the most helpful and sensitive ways possible. Our primary focus is on helping people of all ages who are suffering from very serious physical and emotional traumas (創(chuàng)傷) .
Specifically,we believe that very funny standup comedy,movies and TV programs can be a very important,helpful part of medical,psychotherapeutic (心理療法的) ,educational and overall preventive health care from childhood through old age. We do this in uniquelydesigned ways,working closely with worldrenowned experts in the field of health care at major medical institutes internationally. Rx Laughter then puts these findings into practical usage. Briefly:
Medical:Through our collaborative projects with major medical institutes such as the UCLA Jonsson Cancer Center,the Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Unit at the Mattel Children's Hospital? UCLA and The National Cancer Hospital & Adult Hospice in Thailand,we carefully design and implement research initiatives so that patients can be in less pain and have less fear,anxiety & depression―emotions that can overwhelm patients & their families during times of crisis.
Educational:Led by the national Comedy SportzLA teams,this comedy show at their theater gives patients an opportunity for renewed selfconfidence,to learn a new skill,and to feel like a whole person again,not "a medical condition".
Overall Preventive Care: With the rising costs of medical care and health insurance,preventive health care is more important than ever. If comedy viewing can keep us emotionally and physically healthier and help us deal with times of crisis in our lives,then we will have found a very potent,inexpensive prescription for healthy living.
Thus,we encourage comedy,music and other forms of upbeat entertainment for patients and their support system to enjoy together,and we research how best to do this,so that comedy shows can be "prescribed" as a proven benefit to maintaining excellent health.
Thank you for your interest in our charity.
