Recently people have been witnessing the popularity of Korean serials in China. Many Korean serials have been showed on CCTV-8 even CCTV-1,let alone other local channels. And it is hard to get through a day without some talk about Korean serials. They enjoy high watching rate and have profound influences on people.

  My grandmother used to be strongly against watching TV,and insisted that TV did little good to people,especially the youth. But from unknown time,grandmother became interested in watching TV,and now and then,she would talk about the actors and plot with me. Frequently,she would be seated in front of the TV waiting for her favorite Korean serials. This summer I also felt deeply about the popularity of Korean serials,thereafter,I asked why. Basically,they are the visual effects,the plot,and the music that contribute to the phenomenon.

  First of all,Korean serials are eyecatching. They usually have handsome actors and beautiful actresses. Zhang Dong Jian's gentlemanship and An Zai Xu's fascinating eyesight catch thousands of young females' hearts,while young males greatly appreciate Song Hui Qiao's elegance and Jin Xi Shan's beauty. Regardless of their skills and other factors like the plot,the actors function effectively in keeping a watching record.

  In addition,they get marvelous pictures,from which we enjoy changeable seasons and places of interest in Korea. Blue sky and white cloud signify (represent) good state of mind of the characters,and drizzling weather and red umbrella intensify romantic impression. So watching them is just like enjoying free trips.

  Then comes to the plot of Korean serials,which can attract people of various ages. Most Korean serials have supporting characters who behave like either Cinderella's sisters or BaoYu's father,so the main characters,as a result,would have to suffer and experience a lot before their final weddings. Some people argue that the story between the main characters maybe too romantic to believe,however,these people seem to neglect to take into account that their love is what most young people are actually longing for. So,serials of this kind are young people's favorite.

  Quite a number of our serials fail to consider many factors other than love,and the case in point is Qiong Yao's work,in which love seems to be the only thing in life. However,Korean serials take friendship and family relationship as well into the plot,and these are the very things that attract people in both middle and old ages,as they make the serials humorous,reliable,and close to ordinary audience.

  Still,another point is about music. Though young people today are crazy about Jazz or Rap music as they express ideas of the youth,Korean music may be not inferior to them. In this Hip-Hop world,smooth and lyric Korean music is like spring breathes,it calms young people down and warms people's hearts. Even if people know little about the words,just to enjoy the music is not a bad thing.

(   ) 5. The writer took his grandmother as an example to show that        .

   A. she was free from her housework nowadays

   B. the influence of the Korean serials was overflowing

   C. the children have grown up and films won't do them bad

   D. she can enjoy the smooth and lyric Korean music instead of Jazz or Rap

(   ) 6. The writer seems to believe that our serials such as Qiong Yao's work fail to reach the same popularity as Korean serials mainly because        .

   A. our music is inferior to theirs

   B. our actors are not so eyecatching

   C. the pictures in Korean serials are more breath taking

   D. the plot of Korean serials attracts people of various ages

(   ) 7. What is mainly discussed in this passage?

   A. The romantic factor of the Korean Serials.

   B. The effective use of the language in the film.

   C. The popularity of Korean Serials in China.

   D. The cultural impact of the Korean Serials.

(   ) 8. From this passage we can conclude that the writer's attitude towards the Korean Serials is        .

   A. affirmative   B. negative

   C. neutral   D. indifferent

5. B作者以祖母為例,只是要進(jìn)一步證明韓劇在中國的影響——甚至這樣一個(gè)老人也成了韓劇迷。

6. D文章第6段說到However,Korean serials take friendship and family relationship as well into the plot,and these are the very things that attract people in both middle and old ages,as they make the serials humorous,reliable,and close to ordinary audience.與韓劇相比,瓊瑤的電視劇題材大都局限于愛情,因此,觀眾面更窄。

7. C文章的中心議題應(yīng)是韓劇在中國的"流行",即:通過這一現(xiàn)象,分析了流行的三大主要原因。

8. A從作者行文的用詞等可以推斷出作者對韓劇的態(tài)度是:肯定的。

B項(xiàng)意為"否定的";C項(xiàng)意為"中立的";D項(xiàng)意為"冷漠不關(guān)心的"。

  Hoffman,40, a former senior vice president of a financial company,had what she describes as "one of those extreme jobs". "I loved working," she says. But her career path reached a crossroad when her second child was born,and she left her job in February2007. Hoffman is one of many people who have left the work force to take a break,but she has a position as a consultant. She has described this type of career detour (繞路) 一which is more common for women than for men―as"offramping".   Typically it occurs when the balancing act of parenting and work becomes too tough.

A study by the center found that more than90 percent of women who offramp want to onramp back into the work force eventually. But making the transition back to work is rarely easy,and it is even harder in this economic climate of layoffs and hiring freezes.

  Considering some of the obstacles faced by onrampers,a threeday program called "Greater Returns:Restarting Your Career”was held at Columbia University. The goal of the three days was to have them walk away with a big shot of confidence.

According to one school of thought,women looking to make a comeback might even have an advantage in the current economy,especially if they are looking for parttime or consultant positions that do not offer benefits. And a majority of onrampers are women with extensive working experiences that could give them a slight advantage over lessexperienced competition.

  "You absolutely cannot be defensive about why you offramped," Ms. Hoffman says, "defensive" would have put her into a hard situation if the Greater Returns program had not taught her how to describe the years she spent at home. "I now feel confident talking to an employer and saying , ' Yes,I have been out of the work force,but here is where I can make significant contributions.'”

(   ) 5. What is the best title for the passage?

   A. Off-Ramp:It Is Common.

   B. On-Ramp:It Is Easy.

   C. Off-Ramp to On-Ramp:It Can Be a Hard journey.

   D. Off-Ramp or On-Ramp:It Depends on Confidence.

(   ) 6. According to the passage,Greater Returns         .

   A. is intended to relieve the pressure of the jobless women

   B. has all the jobless women restart their career

   C. is to last all the year around for the jobless women

   D. will build up the confidence of those in search of jobs

(   ) 7. The main reason for the women's offramping is that         .

   A. they have to suffer the sexual discrimination

   B. they reach a crossroad of career

   C. they have to parent their children

   D. they have great work pressure

(   ) 8. Which job is easier to get for a woman offramper?

   A. Regular workers. B. Casual workers.

   C. Company managers. D. Bank clerks.

(   ) 9. From what Ms. Hoffman says in the last paragraph,we can conclude         .

   A. she didn't get advice from the Greater Returns program

   B. she was defensive about her offramping

   C. she didn't get the job because she lied about her experience

   D. she is onramp partly due to her straightforward manner

 Doctors commonly view too much daytime sleepiness as a most important sign of disturbed or inadequate sleep. But a new study suggests it could also signal depression or even diabetes (糖尿病) ,regardless of whether an individual doesn't sleep well.

  Among a random sample of 16,500 men and women ranging in age from 20 to 100 years old from central Pennsylvania,8. 7 percent had too much daytime sleepiness.

Researchers,who considered a wide range of possible reasons for why these individuals were over sleepy during the daytime,found that too much daytime sleepiness was more strongly associated with depression and obesity (過度肥胖) or metabolic (新陳代謝的) factors than with sleepdisordered breathing or sleep disruption.

  Depression was by far the most significant risk factor for too much daytime sleepiness,they report in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. The possibility of being over sleepy during the daytime was more than three times higher in those who reported they were being treated for depression.

  T he investigators also observed strong ties between too much daytime sleepiness and diabetes. Individuals reporting treatment for diabetes were close to two times more likely to report too much daytime sleepiness than those who were not being treated for diabetes.

  Being overweight also increased the possibility of too much daytime sleepiness.

Too much daytime sleepiness was more common in people younger than age 30 ,a finding that hints at the presence of unmet sleep needs and depression,and in the over-75 crowd,suggesting increasing medical illness and health problems,they explain.

Smoking also appeared as a risk factor for too much daytime sleepiness,a link that hasn't been shown before. It could be that smokers use nicotine which can make people more active for a time to selftreat their daytime sleepiness,the authors suggest.

  Sleep apnea (呼吸暫停) was not a significant player in too much daytime sleepiness. This is in agreement with former studies that have reported only weak associations between sleep apnea and too much daytime sleepiness.

  The authors conclude that adults bothered by too mtich daytime sleepiness should be thoroughly evaluated for depression and diabetes,regardless of whether or not sleepdisordered breathing is present.

(   ) 1. Which of the following is more likely to cause too much daytime sleepiness?

   A. Smoking. B. Obesity.

   C. Depression. D. Disturbed sleep.

(   ) 2. Which of the following statements is right?

   A. Smoking can help people selftreat their daytime sleepiness.

   B. Too much daytime sleepiness doesn't necessarily result from inadequate sleep.

   C. People who suffer from depression are twice more likely to be over sleepy.

   D. People under 30 who are over sleepy during the daytime are most likely over?weighted.

(   ) 3. We can learn from paragraph eight that         .

   A. smoking may cause people to become more sleepy

   B. many people can selftreat their daytime sleepiness

   C. doctors didn't know the side effects of smoking before

   D. nicotine can make people more active during the daytime

(   ) 4. As a conclusion the writer tells us that if we have too much daytime sleepiness we should         .

   A. cut down the amount of smoking cigarettes

   B. go to some specialist without delay

   C. ignore it as it is a very common phenomenon

   D. do more exercise to reduce sleepiness

Communications technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth. The first study to compare honesty across a range of communication media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails. The fact that emails are automatically recorded―and can come back to haunt (困擾) you―appears to be the key to the finding.

Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca,New York,asked 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week. In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes,and confessed to how many lies they told. Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium. He found that lies made up 14 percent of emails,21 percent of instant messages,27 percent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 percent of phone calls.

His results to be presented at the conference on humancomputer interaction in Vienna,Austria,in April,have surprised psychologists. Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars,reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable,the detachment (非直接接觸) of emailing would make it easier to lie. Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practised at that form of communication.

But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread,and whether it occurs in real time. People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account,he says. This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone.

People are also more likely to lie in real time―in a instant message or phone call―than if they have time to think of a response,says Hancock. He found many lies are spontaneous (脫口而出的) responses to an unexpected demand,such as: "Do you like my dress?"

Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate. For instance,the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth. But,given his result,work assessment where honesty is a priority,might be best done using email.

(   ) 5. Hancock's study focuses on         .

   A. the consequences of lying in various communications media

   B. the success of communications technologies in conveying ideas

   C. people are less likely to lie in instant messages

   D. people's honesty levels across a range of communications media

(   ) 6. Hancock's research finding surprised those who believed that         .

   A. people are less likely to lie in instant messages

   B. people are unlikely to lie in face-to-face interactions

   C. people are most likely to lie in email communication

   D. people are twice as likely to lie in phone conversations

(   ) 7. According to the passage,why are people more likely to tell the truth through certain media of communication?

   A. They are afraid of leaving behind traces of their lies.

   B. They believe that honesty is the best policy.

   C. They tend to be relaxed when using those media.

   D. They are most practiced at those forms of communication.

(   ) 8. According to Hancock the telephone is a preferable medium for promoting sales because         .

   A. salesmen can talk directly to their customers

   B. salesmen may feel less restrained to exaggerate

   C. salesmen can impress customers as being trustworthy

   D. salesmen may pass on instant messages effectively

  Key West got its name when it was given a name Cayo Hueso by early Spanish explorers,who found human bones along the shore. That name was eventually developed to Key West.

  In 1820,the island was bought from the Spanish for $2,000,quite a big sum in those days,and the purchaser was John Simonton,an Alabama businessman―a smart businessman,it might be added,whose name and descendants live on here and remain a powerful influence in the area.

  Pirates were eventually driven out and the island's mixed population of English Bahamians,Southerners and transplanted northerners rose to 2 ,700,many of them happily engaged in the business of wrecking ships,then salvaging (打撈) the cargoes.

  So profitable was that enterprising career,in fact,that one wrecker,a Bahamian named William Curry,is said to have worked his way to a million dollars,making him Florida's first millionaire and wealthy enough to buy a $100,000 Tiffany table service.

  In the 1850s,however,a lighthouse was built,putting a bit of a damper on the wrecking business,and the town's industry began to change. A terrible fire destroyed the town in 1859. About the same time,cigar makers,fleeing war in Cuba,arrived in Key West,where they established a flourish industry. Key West's port was a hot spot,too,and by the 1880s,the city was said to be the wealthiest in the nation.

  It was pretty much downhill from there until promoters in these Keys discovered that the real gold in these islands was incessant ( nonstop,continuous) sunshine,clear seas and iconoclastically bohemian (攻擊傳統(tǒng)觀念和風(fēng)俗的人) residents,all items of surpassing interest to the winterweary and the weird watchers. Thus was discovered the gold of tourism.

(   ) 1. The wrecker,a Bahamian named William Curry made a lot of money by         .

   A. finding the wrecking ships

   B. offering Tiffany table service

   C. joining the two businesses together

   D. developing the tourism

(   ) 2. What is the passage mainly about?

   A. History of the island.

   B. Geography of the island.

   C. Some powerful people.

   D. The discovery of the island.

(   ) 3. The underlined phrase "putting ... a damper on" in the passage probably means

   A. making something slightly wet

   B. making something brighter

   C. making something less strong

   D. making something quite different

(   ) 4. What is the small island nowadays famous for?

   A. The skills in repairing ships.

   B. The wrecking business.

   C. Transportation industry.

   D. Beautiful Scenery.

  That morning,I stepped into the classroom,ready to share my knowledge and experience with seventyfive students who would be my English Literature class. Having taught in 1        for seventeen years,I had no 2        about my ability to hold their attention and to 3        on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue.

  I was shocked when the monitor shouted ," 4      !" The entire class rose as I entered the room,and I was somewhat 5        about how to get them to sit down again,but once that awkwardness (馗MO was over,I quickly 6        my calmness and began what I thought was a factpacked lecture,sure to gain their respect―perhaps 7       their admiration.

  My students 8        diaries. However,as I read them,the rosy glow was gradually 9        by a strong sense of sadness.

"Didn't I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical 12        for all the works we'll study in class," I complained. "How 13       they say I didn't teach them anything?"
