China's largest water diversion project may start supplying water to Shandong Province by 2007 and Beijing by 2010, an official confirmed Tuesday.

The worsening water shortage in the two areas, caused by decades of drought, may be alleviated with water from the mighty Yangtze River in the South which will be diverted into the parched North, he said.

The water diversion project consists of three 1,300-kilometre canals that will carry water from the Yangtze along the eastern, middle and western parts of the country.

Zhang Jiyao, director of the State Council's office in charge of the South-to-North Project, told a national conference that ground will be broken in more places along two of the lines of the ambitious water diversion scheme, the largest of its kind in the world.

Before next year's flood season, construction of four new sections along the two lines will push the project further along the fast track. That would bring the total sections under construction to 13, since construction started in 2002 with an estimated investment of 124 billion Yuan (about US$15 billion).

When finished, the two water diversion canals will be capable of transferring 13.4 billion cubic meters of water a year.

11．China's largest water diversion project is being constructed to__________.

A. supply water to Shandong Province.

B. remove the worsening water shortage in Beijing.

   B. the project will supply 13.4 billion cubic meters of water a year.

   C. the shortage of water in the North will be alleviated.

A new study suggests that the round­the­clock availability that cell phones have brought to people's lives may take a toll on family life. The study，which followed more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone throughout the study period were more likely to report negative “spillover” between work and home life—and，in turn，less satisfaction with their family life.
Spillover essentially(本質(zhì)上)means that the line between work and home begins to become unclear. Work life may invade home life when a parent is taking job­related calls at home，for instance—or family issues may start to take up work time. For example，a child may call mum at work，telling her “microwave exploded”，explained Noelle Chesley，an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin­Milwaukee and the author of the study. The problem with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for even more spillover between work and home.
This may be especially true for working women，the study found. Among men，consistent use of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潛入)into family time. But for women，the spillover tended to go in both directions. Being “connected” meant that work cut into home time，and family issues came into work life.
Cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family members. But there may be ways to control the spillover，according to Chesley. Employers, she said，could look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are “reasonable”．For their part，employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time, Chesley said.
【小題1】What does the underlined phrase “take a toll on” probably mean in Paragraph 1?

A．Explaining.B．Founding.C． ExtendingD．Damaging.
【小題2】According to Chesley，what is the best solution to the problem caused by cell phones?
A．Separate work hours from family time.
B．Refuse to use cell phones.
C．Ignore coming calls during family time.
D．Encourage women to stay at home.
【小題3】We can learn from the passage that ________.
A．cell phones affect men as much as women
B．cell phones seem to be convenient to families
C．cell phones make the line between work and home unclear
D．we can do nothing to solve the problem
【小題4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．How to control the negative spillover caused by cell phones.
B．How work life invades home life.
C．Consistent use of cell phones makes people feel less satisfied with their work.
D．Cell phones cause negative “spillover” between work life and home life.

Do you want to live a happier, less stressful (有壓力的) life?
Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world – and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing – it’s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
Many doctors are also interested in the effects (效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5 – year study in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.
So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest – I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.
Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real – and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!
【小題1】In which country was the first Laughter Club started?

A．Britain.B．America.C．Australia.D．India.
【小題2】How did the writer feel at the beginning of the class?
A．Surprised.B．Pleased.C．Nervous.D．Stressful.
【小題3】When did the people in the club begin to laugh for real?
A．After a few minutes.B．After a few hours.
C．After a few seconds.D．After a few days.
【小題4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Fake laughter and real laughter are both good for health.
B．40% of the people in Laughter Clubs are good friends.
C．Adults laugh more often than children in a day.
D．Laughing is the best way to prevent illness.
