“Keep an eye on Esther. I’ll be back in a second,” Joy Warren said to her three-year-old son Stephen, who was sitting in the back of the Buick. She didn’t like leaving the children alone in the car, but the baby was sleeping soundly. And it would only be a moment.
She had hardly walked 40 yards when she saw the car moving. It headed straight towards the river. Unable to swim, Joy shouted, “My babies are in that car!”
Daniel Whitehead, a 17-year-old student, was walking by the river when the Buick crashed into the water just yards ahead .Without thinking, Daniel jumped in. Though a competitive swimmer, he was shocked by the icy chill.
Two minutes earlier, Skip Womack had pulled to a halt as the Buick ran in front of him. Now seeing it hit the water and hearing Joy’s cries, Skip got out of his truck and jumped into the water. He had only one thought: If I don’t get them out, they’ll drown.
Daniel reached the car and grabbed a door handle. But the water was only four inches beneath the window, and the door wouldn’t open. With one powerful punch, Daniel and Skip broke a window. Daniel reached inside and lifted Stephen out. He placed him on his back and set out for shore. At the same time, Skip squeezed himself through the window .He managed to free Esther from beneath her seat belt. After he got out of the car with the baby, he held her over the water and swam toward the shore. All this took place just seconds before the Buick disappeared beneath the water.
Later, driving home, Skip thought of his wife and children—how close he’d come to leaving them behind. He thought of the miracle he’d lived through, and how two children were still alive because he and Daniel happened to be in the right place at the right time.
Why did Joy leave her children in the car?
A. He did not like shopping with a child in hand.
B. She didn’t like waking up her baby.
C. Stephen was big enough to take care of his sister.
D. It was icy cold outside.
Daniel and Skip, who saved the lives of the two kids, _____.
A. had been good friends
B. were two close friends of Joy Warren’s
C. were Joy Warren’s neighbors
D. were strangers before the accident
How did Daniel get Stephen out of danger?
A. He squeezed into the car and carried him out.
B. He pulled him out through the broken window.
C. He freed him from his seatbelt before he got him out.
D. He held him over the water and swam back to shore.
What happened to Joy Warren’s Buick?
A. It had four inches of water in it.
B. One of its windows could not be opened.
C. It was pulled out of water and set on the shore.
D. It sank to the bottom of the river.
How did Skip feel in his way home?

Directions: The following people are going to take part in job interviews. Match the interviews (marked with A, B, C, D, E and F) with the people so that they can have a greater chance of being employed. There is one extra paragraph that you don’t need.
61. Tom is a university student graduating soon. He is smart, swift and quick-minded. He is fond of challenges. He can react to sudden changes very well.
62. Mary is a graduate who often can communicate and cooperate with others well and can make friends easily.
63. Tim is a hardworking person. He has done several jobs but still hasn’t found his favorite. Every time before he goes for an interview, he’ll make full preparations as to what interviewers may ask about him.
64. Helen has worked in an advertising company for 8 years before and now she is considering finding a job in a bigger advertising company. She is a talented woman and possesses outstanding skills.
65. Mike is a brave and honest person. He often says what’s in the mind. He has many true friends.
A
You’ll be asked a lot of questions concerning a wide variety of subjects. For example, you will be asked about the political affairs to see whether you keep an eye on the things happening at home and abroad. Of course, you should also know about the company itself very well—the basic information, the policy, the market, and the potential.
B
You may be interviewed with one or two other interviewees. The interviewer may ask you to solve problems which require you and your partner to work together. It’s as important to lead as to listen. So, team spirit matters.
C
The interviewer explores certain predetermined areas using questions which have been written in advance. You may be required to list your past experience, skills and personality. Your experience and skills are compared to specific job tasks to see whether you are fit for the job.
D
The interviewer intentionally attempts to upset you to see how you react under pressure. You may be asked questions that make you uncomfortable or you may be interrupted when you are speaking. At those times, your quick responses count.
E
In some job interviews, you will be asked about your social relationship. Sometimes, the interviewer will even ask you how much hard liquor (酒) you can drink. Just keep to the fact, or you’ll suffer later.
F
Situations are set up which simulate (copy) common problems you may meet with on the job. Your responses to these situations are measured against predetermined standards. The way of dealing with the problem really matters. The interviewers can determine whether you have the basic qualifications for the job.

Dear Ken,
I'm very exciting to have received an e-mail from you and I'm glad you had a
wonderfully time during the past summer holiday. Last summer I take a trip to the
countryside with some of my friend. Country life, in my opinion, gave me peace
and quiet, which is what I can't enjoy in big cities. There was river nearby, in that
we went swimming every now and then. You can never imagine what fun it
was to swimming together with friends in the cool, clean river on such hot days.
In fact , I had never been had a better holiday before . I took plenty photos there
and I keep them where I can see them every day as they always reminds me of
my stay in the country.
Yours,
Li Ping

下面文章中有5處需要添加小標(biāo)題。請(qǐng)從以下選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D、E和F)中選出符合各段意思的小標(biāo)題,并在答題紙上將相應(yīng)選項(xiàng)的標(biāo)號(hào)涂黑。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)是多余選項(xiàng)。

F. Be polite to People You Meet
Moving to a new city can be both exciting and scary. Whether you are moving for a job, school or just to start over somewhere new, it can function as a fresh start. However, leaving behind old friends and finding new ones is not always easy. Maintaining a positive attitude and being open to new situations and people will make the adjustment easier.
1.________
Trying new things will always put you in the position to run into new people. However, chances are, if you are by yourself instead of with a group of friends, other people will be more comfortable approaching you because they are less likely to feel as though they are bothering you or intruding. Go for walks by yourself, read a book in the park or have dinner at a restaurant alone. Doing things alone can also make you appear confident and interesting to others.
2.________
Visit the same coffee shops or restaurants as often as possible. Talk to the employees and be friendly. Over time, the people that work there will recognize you and you can build relationships with them that way. This can also help you feel like you blend in and belong in your new neighborhood. Ask the employees for suggestions on things to do. They are great resources to find out the latest activities and events happening in your city, and they may even join you.
3.________
You will not meet new people sitting in your house, so you will want to put yourself in situations with other people. Joining a gym, club or other social group can be a low pressure way to meet new people who have the same interests as you. Moving to a new city is a great time to try a new activity you are interested in, such as yoga or martial arts.
4.________
If you moved for a job or school, you will be surrounded by new people. Even if they are not necessarily the type of people you would normally be friends with, try to keep an open mind. Common interests provide the start of many wonderful friendships. Your coworkers or fellow students will likely be able to introduce you to other people you may get along with as well.
5.________
Sites like Linked In and Yahoo offer several online forums (論壇) that can help expand networking opportunities. You could become friends with someone through one of the online discussions and then meet in person later. Linked In lists several groups it feels you might enjoy. Get involved with the groups that meet in person with things like business book groups, networking events, or social mixers. To join a Yahoo group, click on “groups,” then “business and finance.” Type in the name of your city in the search screen, and scroll through the list of local groups that appear.

A small group of people around the world have started implanting(移植) microchips to link the body and the computer.
Mr. Donelson and three friends, who had driven 100 miles from their homes in Loekport, New York, to have the implants put in by Dr Jesse Willemaire, whom they had persuaded to do the work, are part of a small group, about 30 people around the world, who have independently put in microchips into their bodies, according to Web-based reports.
At a shop William Donelson was having a four-millimeter-wide needle put into his left hand. “I’m set,” he said with a deep breath. He watched as the needle pierced(刺穿) the fleshy webbing between his thumb and a microchip was set under his skin. At last he would be able to do what he had long imagined; strengthen his body’s powers through technology.
By putting the chip inside—a radio frequency identification device (RFID)—Mr. Donelson would have at his fingertips the same magic that makes safety gates open with a knock of a card, and bridge and tunnel traffic flow smoothly with an E-Zpass. With a wave of his hand he plans to connect with his computer, open doors and unlock his car.
Implanting the chip was relatively simple task but very meaningful to Mr. Doneselson, a 21-year-old computer networking student so interested in the link between technology and the body that he has data-input jacks(數(shù)據(jù)輸入插空) inside his body. They might lead to an imagined future when people can be connected directly into computers. His new chip is enclosed in a glass container no bigger than a piece of rice and has a small memory where he has stored the words “Technology”.
Some doctors have done the piercing in people’s homes, and others have implanted chips in their offices after patients signed forms showing the fact that long-term studies have not been done on their safety. Piercers treat the implants much like any other medical operation steps, instructing people to keep the site dry, and advising them that swelling(腫) and redness should last a week.
69. With a RFID implanted, which of the following will Mr. Donelson be able to do?
Make a safety gate open with a knock of a card.
Make bridge and tunnel traffic flow smoothly with an E-Zpass.
Open doors and unlock his car with a wave of his hand.
Turn his body and brain directly into computers.
70. The underlined word “they” in paragraph 5 refer to “___________”.
A. glass containers B. implanted computer chips
C. data input jacks D. computer and net working students
71. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. High Tech, Under the Skin B. A Needle, So Magic
C. Donelson, a Powerful Man D. Data-input Jacks, Inside the Body
72. We can conclude from the passage that __________________.
Mr. Donelson has made a large sum of money by the piercing.
the Piercers are people working in the computer field
the piercing has no side effect and it will make people intelligent
the long term effects of these implants are not yet known

Loma just had to get in touch with someone:“I had to tell my best friend something important. I tried calling her but I couldn’t get through. So I sent her an e-mail and then I spoke to her on MSN. Without technology I would not have been able to tell her. ”
Staying connected with friends and family is important for us. That’s why we asked our readers to tell us how cell-phones, e-mail, blogs, text messaging, and personal pages help them keep in touch. More than 1,500 responded.
Most of them told us they couldn’t live without technology:80%of teens said they need technology to stay in touch. Almost 30%said they’d be completely out of their friends without their cell-phones and other methods of communication.
What do they do when they’ve got news they need to share now? Most teens say they try to reach their friends by phone. But if they don’t reach them, they use QQ, e-mails, and text messaging to get the words out.
Lots of people use one way of communication—like text messaging—to get a friend’s attention and then use another where they can talk more. “My friends and I always tell each other everything that happens. So I send them text messages to tell them to come online so we can talk about it,” said Sabeiha.
“When planning to get together with friends”, Julian said, “the easiest and fastest way I know is to send a text message to my contact group.”Jocelyn said. “If I want to go to see a movie with a few friends, I usually send text message to them. By telephone, you have to call every single friend one by one. But text messaging allows you to send the same message to as many as you’d like, which saves a lot of time. ”
1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. E-mails. B. Blogs. C. Personal pages. D. Personal letters.
2.What do most young people use first when they have news to tell their friends?
A. MSN. B. QQ. C. Phones. D. Text message.
3. The underlined part “get the words out” means“ ”.
A. send the message B. send the e-mail
C. talk with their friends D. meet their friends
4. In which part of a newspaper can you find this passage?
A. Sport. B. Education. C. Technology. D. Culture.
