I competed with her secretly and grew to hate her natural abilities. As a result, we spoke. I sought opportunities to find with her and expected to her in every way. Her diary lay at my feet, and I not her privacy, nor her possible pain. I enjoyed the possibility of digging up enough dirt to my competitor’s spotless record. I my evil as sisterly duty.

I the book from the floor and opened it, turning the pages, searching for my name, that I would discover dirty and ill speaking of me. However, as I read, the blood ran from my face. It was worse than I . There was a brief description of herself, her goals and her dreams followed by a short portrayal (肖像) of the person who has her most. I started to cry. I was her . She admired me for my personality, my achievements and red-facedly, my .

I stopped reading, struck with the I had done. I had wasted so much energy pushing her away I had missed out on her. Those sincere words she wrote seemed to break an icy around my heart and I longed to know her again.

On that fateful afternoon, as I put aside the laundry and rose to my feet, I decided to go to her—this time to experience to judge, to hug rather than fight. After all, she was my sister.

Wikipedia is a free-access, free content Internet encyclopedia(百科全書), supported and hosted by the non-profit Wikipedia Foundation. Wikipedia is ranked among the ten most popular websites and is considered the Internet’s largest and most popular general reference book. Now, Wikipedia is becoming Wookiepedia as scientists hope the informative website will help us reach out to intelligent life forms. So aliens can learn about the human race.

Astronomers would like to beam (播送) the entire contents of Wikipedia into space in the hope of contacting aliens. They want to send messages to hundreds of star systems and planets 20 light years away using radio telescopes. The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute, in California, wants to use powerful radio telescopes to try to reach Chewbacca and his mates in a galaxy（銀河系）far away.

The plans will be discussed by astronomers at the weekend as some scientists fear the reply from ET might not turn out to be friendly. Institute scientist David Black said, “One question is if there are dangerous creatures we might be drawing their attention to ourselves. Another is if we go ahead, what message should be sent? There could be many civilizations out there，but if they are all listening and no one is broadcasting or responding, then nothing will happen.”

Professor Stephen Hawking, who has warned that intelligent aliens probably exist and we should keep a safe distance from them, is among those. “If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans,” he said.

Signals from Earth’s radio and TV broadcasts have been heading out in space for some 60 years reaching around 5,000 stars.

1.What does the underlined word those in the fourth paragraph refer to?

A. aliens from space

B. astronomers sending signals

C. scientists for the plans

D. scientists against the plans

2.What has Prof. Stephen Hawking warned?

A. intelligent aliens would probably land in America.

B. the plans will be in vain and nothing will happen.

C. none of the civilizations would reply.

D. aliens would bring disasters to the human race.

3.Which can be the best title?

A. Wikipedia, the most popular website

B. Wikipedia to be beamed into space

C. Wikipedia, aliens’ best friend

D. Wikipedia to result in a disaster

Across Britain，burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers．But，according to a new study，we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year．

Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work．Now，the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labours，they would earn as much as￡172，000 a year．

The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do，as well as the hours they are working，to determine the figure．This would make their yearly income￡30，000 more than the Prime Minister earns．

By analysing the numbers，it found the average mother works 119 hours a week，40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime．After questioning 1，000 mothers with children under 18，it found that，on most days，mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm．

To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour，it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on，including housekeeper，part-time lawyer，personal trainer and entertainer．Being a part-time lawyer，at￡48．98 an hour，would prove to be the most profitable of the“mum jobs”，with psychologist(心理學(xué)家)a close second．

It also asked mothers about the challenges they face，with 80 percent making emotional(情感的)demand as the hardest thing about motherhood．

Over a third of mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends．

The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother’s Day．The emotional，physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending，but children are also sources of great joy and happiness．Investing(投入)in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent．

1.How much does a Prime Minister earn，according to the passage?

A．￡30，000． B．￡142，000．

C．￡172，000． D．￡202，000．

2.The biggest challenge for most mothers is from_____．

A．emotional demand B．1ow pay for work

C．heavy workload D．1ack of training

3.What is stressed in the last paragraph?

A．Mothers’importance shows in family all year long．

B．The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile．

C．Mothers’devotion to children can hardly be calculated．

D．Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return．

4.What can we conclude from the study?

A．Mothers’working hours should be largely reduced．

B．Mothers should balance their time for work and rest．

C．Mothers’labour is of a higher value than it is realized．

D．Mothers should be freed from housework for social life．

Visitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many free things to do here. The following ideas should get you started.

All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. And I love the Geffrye Museum which shows English domestic interiors and helps bring to life what it was really like to live in London.

I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and Kensington Gardens nearby includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.

No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.

Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and the main focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.

1. Where can visitors find the Peter Pan Statue?

A. in Regent's Park. B. in St. James's Park.

C. in Hyde Park. D. in Kensington Gardens.

2. Which of the following descriptions is True?

A. In the Geffrye Museum visitors can learn the history of London from Roman times to today.

B. The Queen Mary's Rose Gardens is in Buckingham Palace.

C. There is the Queen's Guard change inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30 am every day all year around.

D. Trafalgar Square is both a tourist attraction and a place for political demonstrations.

3. The writer wrote the passage to ________.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment . “We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it, ”says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.
