11.Being a victim of schoolyard violence can help pupils learn how to manage argument and develop their ability to get along with others,it was claimed.
Helene Guldberg,associate lecturer in child development at the Open University,said trying to stop the"supposedly terrible dangers of bullying(欺負(fù))"can do more harm than good.She insisted teachers should not break up"everyday playground argument",saying children should be left to deal with it themselves.
In an on-line article,Dr.Guldberg said that bullying was"an experience that children need to develop".But the comments were strongly criticized by anti-bullying campaigners.
According to official figures,almost half of children claim they are bullied at school.One of the biggest studies of its kind by Ofsted showed 48percent of young people had been orally or physically abused in the last year.It comes despite a number of government measures designed to crack down on the threats.
Writing on a website,Dr.Guldberg said:"Teachers are increasingly taking the task of looking after children's health and well-being rather than being allowed to get on with the task of educating them.Children are encouraged to assume their relationships with other children are damaging,and encouraged to look upon their classmates with suspicion."She added:"If we treat children as if they cannot possibly cope with hurtful experiences,then we will likely to weaken their confidence and make them less likely to cope with difficult events in the future.In effect,we will prevent them from growing up."
The comments echo(附和) remarks made by teachers in recent years who claim the education system has been too focused on developing children's social skills at the expense of academic learning.But Sue Steel,national manager of the Anti-Bullying Alliance,said:"Children who are being bullied often find it difficult to tell anyone.Teachers can help by giving appropriate attention."

65.The underlined word"abused"in Para.4is similar in meaning to"B".
A.criticized            B.a(chǎn)ttacked            C.helped               D.judged
66.Which of the following is TURE according to Helene Guldberg?B
A.Teachers should take the task of dealing with children's argument.
B.Children should be left to cope with their argument themselves.
C.Children will gain their confidence if teachers manage their argument for them.
D.Children can't cope with difficult events after dealing with hurtful experiences themselves.
67.Anti-bullying campaigners think thatA.
A.teachers should help deal with children's argument in a proper way
B.the government should take measures to stop children from being bullied
C.children will be prevented from growing up with too much school violence
D.teachers should develop children's academic learning rather than social skills
68.The passage mainly tells us that schoolyard violence isC.
A.difficult to get rid of             B.common among young people
C.not necessarily bad for children    D.harmful to children's academic learning.

1.Millions of people die of hunger in southern Africa every year,but when Zambia (贊比亞) was offered thousands of tons of free maize(玉米)by the U.S.A.,the government politely said no"We don't know whether the food is safe,"said Zambia's commerce,Trade and Industry Minister Dipak Patel.
His worries are shared by countries around the world that are in two minds about America's genetically modified(GM,轉(zhuǎn)基因的)crops.Just last week,European Union member nations were discussing whether or not to import GM sweet corn from the US.
Ever since people started farming,they have tried to crossbreed(雜交)plants to make them stronger or better tasting.At one time,only related plants could be crossed with each other.
But when GM techniques were developed in the 1970s,scientists were able to put a single gene from a living creature into an unrelated creature.
This means they can make crops more productive and resistant to disease by adding genes from other species.They can also create food with special characteristics,such as"golden rice",which is rich in vitamin A.But many people believe GM foods are a health risk.
At the moment,the official argues that GM foods"are not likely to have an impact on human health".But there are still many questions to be answered as the foods are produced in different ways.
Some experts believe the genetic material added to plants can be absorbed by humans and do damage to our bodies.Further harm could be caused by the genes from GM plants crossbreeding with naturally produced crops.
People in China are also getting worried about GM foods.More than 70percent of the country's soybean oil is produced from imported GM soybeans.Meanwhile,a survey last November found that 12of 60famous foods sold across the country were GM products.The government has begun to introduce a marking system (標(biāo)記系統(tǒng)) for GM goods so that people can choose whether or not to eat them.
61.What can be the best title of the passage?B
A.GM foods in the world                    
B.GM foods,health risk?
C.The techniques of GM foods

A.Zambia and many other countries shared the free maize from the U.S.A.
B.GM food is better than naturally produced foods.
C.Besides Zambia,many countries worldwide are worried about the safety of GM foods
D.Many countries are worried about the GM techniques.
63.According to the passage,GM crops areD
A.less productive

B.Some experts believe genetic material from GM foods can do damage to human bodies.
C.Zambia has refused the American free maize because of the safety of GM food.
D.More than 70percent of China's soybean oil is produced from imported GM soybeans.

2.With the crazy smog going on in China,businessmen are now ready to sell people something to fight against the smog."Smog economy"has helped certain products against the terrible weather become popular.Now let's see what we have on the list to help us through the terrible weather.
1.Masks
Well,I would say you had better stay indoors to save your lives.PM 2.5just increased greatly up t0 750in Beijing recently.3M just sold 220,000masks of a kind.No.1best-selling products!
2.Air purifiers(空氣凈化器)
This kind of products was rarely seen in Chinese households in the past.They have become a must now.I do like these little devices,though they are expensive.
3.Oxygen inhalers(氧氣吸人器)
I didn't realize oxygen inhalers also get a cut in the smog economy.As a matter of fact,
your oxygen uptake has nothing to do with relieving (減輕) the bad effect of smog.It might even lead to oxygen poisoning when you inhale too much oxygen.So don't get greedy.
4.Salt lamps
Compared to oxygen inhalers,salt lamps are even worse.Some stores are selling the products at several hundred yuan,saying that they can release negative ions(離子),reduce radiation levels and purify the air.The lamps mainly contain sodium chloride.The boiling point of sodium is about 800degrees centigrade and that of candle is 500.So how on earth can
negative ions be released at only 500degrees?
5.Plants that absorb smog
Yeah,right.Plants Vs Smog.It is scientifically justfied (證明) that some plants do
absorb pollutants(污染物)from the air.Many plants and calla lilies are among the best-sellers in the market.Even if they don't work,it's good to have some plants in the house anyway.

29.According to the passage,smog _C.
A.encourages peope to run away from it
B.keeps people stay indoors day and niht
C.gives businessmen chances to make money
D.has nothing to do with the economy
30.Salt lamps are useless,becauseD.
A.its high boiling point may cause a big fire
B.people don't know how to increase its low boiling point
C.it may make the air even worse and dirtier
D.it actually can't give off the negative ions
31.How many products does the author think of as useful ways to fight against the smog?B
A.Two.  B.Three.  C.Four.  D.Five.

19.As women in the rich Asian country have become better educated,with five times as many now getting advanced degrees as in 1995,they have also become choosier and are less likely to settle for the role of gentle wife traditionally expected of Korean women.
"I heard if you are a female with master's degree,it is much harder to arrange a meeting than if you have a bachelor's degree because of an unfavorable concept'too smart women'here,"said King,a college senior in Seoul.
The age at which Korean women are getting hitchedhas risen by an average 4.1 years over the past 20 years to 28.9 years,according to Statistics Korea,and that has created worried mothers getting things rolling for their daughters.
"My daughter is in her early 30's,an age considered late for marriage here",said a woman who took her daughter to a match-making agency in Seoul.
"If she does not find her match this year,it will be much more difficult to marry in the coming years.So I went to the firm with her and made her join."
At DUO,a matchmaking firm,its 26,000 members can choose between five different membership programs with fees from 1.08 million won( 韓元)($971)to 8.8 million won.
To attract more customers,the site displays the average annual income of its male and female customers,as well as their professional standing.
"In a privately set-up blind date,you cannot be entirely sure of how much of personal information given to you is accurate,"said DUO spokesman Yon Jun.
Critics say the industry focuses more on income and status.Some of them have coined the phrase"employage"to sum up employment and marriage.
"If your father works in the financial industry or is a high-ranking administrator,maybe you will find your match with similar backgrounds through a matchmaking firm,starting a perfect marriage on the back of parental support,"said comedian Quan.

63.The underlined word"hitched"in Paragraph 3 probably meansB.
    A.employed       B.married       C.educated      D.worried

65.From the passage,we can conclude thatD.
    A.a(chǎn)ll the perfect marriages result from good backgrounds
    B.blind date can help you get more accurate personal information
    C.mothers are more worried about themselves than their daughters
    D.twenty years ago,girls averaged less than 25 when they were married
66.Why do some people invent the word"employage"?BecauseB.

3.Australia-The vote for euthanasia (安樂死) was finally taken at 3:45this morning.After six months'argument and final 16hours'hot debates.Australia's Northern Territory became the first legal authority in the world to allow doctors to take the lives of incurably ill patients who wish to die.The bill was passed by the vote of 15to 10.Almost immediately world flashed on the Internet and was picked up,half a world away,by John Hofsess,the director of the Right to Die Society of Canada.He sent it on through the group's on-line service,Death NET.Hofsess says,"We posted it all day long,because this isn't just something that happened in Australia.It's world history."
The full import may take a while to understand.The NT Rights of the Terminally Ill law has left physicians and citizens trying to deal with its moral and practical implications.Some have breathed sighs of relief; but others,including churches,right to life groups and the Australian Medical Association,bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage.But the tide is unlikely to turn back.In Australia--where an aging population,life-extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part-other states are going to consider making a similar law to for euthanasia.In the U.S.a(chǎn)nd Canada,where the right to die movement is gathering strength,observers are waiting for the dominoes (多米諾骨牌) to start failing.
Under the new Northern Territory law,an adult patient can request death--probably by a deadly injection or pill--to put an end to suffering.The patient must be diagnosed as incurably ill by two doctors.After a"cooling off"period of seven days,the patient can sign a certificate of request.After 48hours the wish for death can be met.For Lloyd Nickson,a 54-year-old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer,the NT Rights of Terminally Ill law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering:a terrifying deat from his breathing condition."I'm not afraid of dying from a spiritual point of view,but what I was afraid of washow I'd go,because I've watched people die in the hospital fighting for oxygen and clawing at their masks,"he says.

45.According to the text,which of the following statements is TURE?B
A.Australia now us the only country in the world to pass the law of euthanasia.
B.All people in Australia don't have the same positive attitude to euthanasia.
C.Many patients will ask their doctors for euthanasia because they are afraid of death.
D.According to the law,if a patient requests death,his or her wish will be met after 48hours.
46.The underlined sentence in Para 2,"observes are waiting for the dominoes to start falling."means that observes are waiting to seeD.
A.the result of the game of dominoes.
B.that people's attitude to euthanasia will be changed.
C.that the bill about euthanasia in Australia will come to an end.
D.the similar bills will be passed in other countries.

20.Dear Volunteers,
The service you will provide to elderly individuals in Abilene as a Meals on Wheels volunteer is deeply appreciated.I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the many miles you will travel and all of the hours you will contribute to help make this one of the best programs in the entire state.
We have our staff members make a home visit before adding each person to the program and try to visit everyone at least once every year.That is hardly enough,and we depend on your contact a great deal!It is important that you report back when you do not get an answer to your knock on the door.The person inside may be hurt or ill.They may be in hospital or out of town and fail to inform us.If they are frequently absent,we may need to determine if they still need meals.
If you find someone with a medical emergency,please call 911 to request medical assistance,and then call the Meals on Wheels office.If you find someone who needs assistance other than for a medical emergency,please call the Meals on Wheels office at 6725050,and we will try to find the appropriate agency or individual to call.
Let us know when a certain person needs extra food.We have a food preparation room of shelf stable items to share with them.Please feel free to take a few magazines when you deliver meals.Many of those we serve cannot afford magazines and enjoy reading.If someone is interested in getting books from the Abilene Public Library,let us know.We can sign them up for the Books on Wheels program.Call if you smell gas strongly when you deliver meals,or if someone needs a space heater,a blanket,or an electric fan.Please convey all needs to us,and we will try to see that they are met.Some of the elderly people who we offer our service may have cancers,liver diseases,AIDS,etc.If you do not want to deliver meals to the people with certain types of health problems,such as these,please let us know.

1.Losing weight has become a major concern for so many people.People try different weight loss methods,some of which will never work,while others provide just a temporary solution.It is important to note that there are some green ways to lose weight that are not only healthy and effective but also good for the environment.
Growing your own vegetables can ensure that you are eating healthy foods.The process is even better if you can use organic manure(肥料).It is not only a good way to go green; it also provides you with plenty of physical exercise.Preparing a garden,including planting and taking care of the vegetables,is a great way to achieve a healthy weight.

It is important to know that there are so many ways in which we can turn our bad habits into good ones.Most of these good habits will not only benefit our bodies; they will also make the world a better place for all of us.
