Man, a land animal. But he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two-thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man’s needs.
The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is big. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish (貝類動物) is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people, including people in China.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent us from exploiting（開發(fā)） fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.
小題1:The major things that the sea offers man are ______.
A．fish and oil
B．minerals and oil
C．warm temperature and ocean currents
D．the food, energy sources, and minerals
小題2:We can conclude from this passage that ______.
A．the sea resources have largely been used up
B．the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developed
C．the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea have already been solved.
D．by the year 2020, the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources
小題3:The underlined words “Oriental people” in the fourth paragraph probably mean ______.
   
A．the people in AsiaB．African people
C．European peopleD．American people
小題4:The best title for this passage is ______.
A．Sea HarvestB．Sea Food
C．Technology for Exploiting the SeaD．Man and the Sea

Much meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same is in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward other’s stare at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to avert his gaze, his intentions are obvious. That is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time; in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to hat the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive. 
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to dominate you, you will feel disconcerted. A poor liar usually expose s himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes the false ides that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.
In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.
Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and specific situation.
小題1:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．It is always very rude and aggressive to look at others for a long time.
B．One’s feelings can be shown through their eyes.
C．If a stranger looks at you for some time, he must be attracted at you..
D．If you are stared at by a stranger, you must look very awkward.
小題2:How can we tell if someone possibly lying?
A．If he looks at you directly in the eye for too long.
B．If he looks at you occasionally.
C．If he looks honest.
D．If he looks attentive.
小題3:What is suggested if you ate talking to others?
A. You’d better look at the listener all the time.
B. You are advised to try to dominate the listeners.
C. You are supposed to look at the listeners from time to time.
D. You should not make eye contact with listeners.
小題4:If two persons exchange eye contact gently for long, what is probably their relationship?
A．Father and son.B．Strangers.C．Lovers.D．Teacher and student.
小題5:Where can we read this passage?
A．In a textbook. .B．In a science journal.C．In a magazine.D．In a psychology report.

The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony（交響樂） that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”
Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5，I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.
Brightman led the saucy dance troupe（辣妹三人舞） Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.
Brightman says she felt hostility(敵意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”
小題1: The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A．Brightman is very popular around the world except in America
B．Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz
C．the British people don’t like her for her style of music
D．Brightman is much older than Andrew Lloyd Webber
小題2: Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.
A．she could adopt one
B．her life and career were unbelievably rich without children
C．she felt it normal not to have children
D．she was too busy
小題3:The following statements are true except ______.
A．Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5
B．Brightman disliked life on the campus
C．Brightman was very gifted when she was young
D．The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous
小題4:The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.
A．locatedB．admiredC．followedD．found
小題5: What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?
A．Brightman has to accept the fact that she is not liked in Britain
B．Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country
C．The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland
D．Brightman was at a loss why she was not welcome in Britain

Many Chinese have been greatly shocked by the traffic accident caused by the drunk driver Sun Weiming, who has killed five and injured some others in Chengdu, Sichuan. However, such a case is not rare.
Today, the traffic accidents may have been regarded as a social problem. The car has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows actually from rude behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral(道德的) rights of others. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless but just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even far beyond carelessness that can be imagined.
Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to(歸屬于) the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can change drivers' reactions incorrectly, slow their judgment, and make them blind to the dangers that might otherwise be obvious. The experts warn that it is important for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep his/her emotions under control.
Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem isn't only put upon drivers. Street walkers regularly ignore or break traffic regulations. They are blamed in most vehicle walker accidents, and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject（受…支配） to the basic rules of the road.
Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicles have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through regular road inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to make people believe that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.
小題1:Traffic accidents may be regarded as a social problem because          .
A．auto driving has become dangerous and harmful in today's society
B．people usually pay no attention to law and morality when driving
C．they have caused serious psychological problems among drivers
D．the car has killed and disabled more people than any weapon in history
小題2:Who are NOT mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents?
A．Careless bicycle-riders.B．Careless people walking in the street.
C．Irresponsible auto drivers.D．Irresponsible auto manufacturers.
小題3:Discussing solutions to traffic accidents, the author seems to be          .
A．doubtful and hopeless
B．angry and disappointed
C．objective (客觀的) and concerned
D．anxious and annoyed

One in five American families will move every year. Moving is one of the most stress-producing events a family has to go through. Experts say it can be harder for children. How do you help your child adjust to the changes?
The Ricardos moved from their old house to a new home. Same family, same dog-but it was harder for 9-year-old Elena. She hated the room, the house and everything. She hated leaving her friends the most.
“ I was so emotional. I mean, saying goodbye to all my friends…..my very close friends, who was my neighbor, made me so sad,” says Elena.
For some children, the emotional stress of moving is not much more different from the emotions when someone has died.
“There’s that sense that, ‘I’ve lost my friends, my friends, my base, my school, my teachers-everything I knew that made me feel safe is all gone now. I have to start over,” says Dr. Tim Jordan.
Starting over is exactly Dr. Tim Jordan’s advice. Make new friends, enter the new school and enter the new neighborhood. And here are some other pieces of advice.
● Explain clearly to the children why the move is necessary.
● Familiarize(使熟悉) the children as much as possible with the new area with maps, photographs or the daily newspaper.
● After the move, got the children to join in activities in the place.
● Help the children keep in touch with friends from the neighborhood before through telephone, letters, e-mail, and personal visits.
小題1:
Which of the following is useful to reduce the children’s stress before the move?
A．Let doctors give children some advice.
B．Try letting children accept the fact of moving.
C．Let children keep in touch with their former friends.
D．Copy the new environment in the old home.
小題2:
What can we know from the passage?
A．Most American children can get used to the changes in moving.
B．Dr. Tim Jordan lost his family, friends, teachers after moving.
C．The emotional stress of moving is the same in some way as that of knowing someone’s death.
D．the Ricardos lost their dogs after moving to their new house.
