     Beggars are often seen sitting by the side of a street with heads bowed as people pass them by. Some
ask people passing by for a small amount of money and some just sit and wait to be given money. A few
use aggressive(侵略性的) behaviour to earn money.
     To solve the problem of aggressive begging, an "alternative giving" plan has been suggested. Ten blue
money boxes will be placed in busy places such as the market and the railway station. It is aimed at
encouraging people not to give money directly to beggars but instead to give money generously to local
homeless causes.
     Supporters of this plan think it will be an effective way to solve the beggars' alcohol and drug problems.
But the police are against the plan. They argue that beggars who do not receive cash may commit crimes
to satisfy their own needs. The homeless. charity (慈善機(jī)構(gòu)) says that the success of any plan will depend
on its style. They think that in a certain degree imaginative and positive plans may help to create local
understanding and sympathy (同情). Most of the beggars dislike the plan because they think they will not
get enough money from the boxes for their showers, food and clothes.
     Begging is a big social problem both in developing and developed countries. Governments must play an
active part in solving this problem. Training beggars to work and helping them to find appropriate jobs is
one choice. This is especially true for developing countries where many low-skill jobs exist.
     The public should also be educated to see a beggar not as dirty and dangerous, but as people who need
understanding and help.

Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry. Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in present technology. This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones.

“Mobile data is not a dream; it’s not an option but a requirement,” said Len Lauer, head of a US communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.

With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday’s news; a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.

Face-to-face video calls

Don’t worry about getting lost. 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.

However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.

Many European countries have already launched the service. In May 2000 the US Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.

International telecom companies can’t wait to sell 3G in China, the world’s largest mobile telecommunications market. But they will have to be patient. At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services. This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.

“We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service,” said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile. “We expect that the 3G licenses will be seen late next year.”

閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題(請(qǐng)注意問(wèn)題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求)。

Safety in the highway is not totally out of hands. Here are four ways we can protect ourselves when we travel.

You are safer in a large car. People in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people traveling in large cars. Factories of small cars are strengthening their products’ safety, which helps. But the mix of large cars and small cars on the road is the main reason of the problem.

Being thrown into glass and metal car parts, or being thrown from the car, can really damage to you. That’s why safety belts should be worn. The safety belt’s main purpose is ___________if your car has a sudden crash with another vehicle or object, or if it rolls over. A belt can reduce the chance of fatal injury by 45% and the chance of serious injury by 50%.

Air bags are important. More than half of all new cars sold have air bags. Air bags provide protection in frontal(正面的)crashes—the type of crash that kills the most drivers—when they are also wearing safety belts. Most people are demanding air bags in the cars they buy. But the protection provided by air bags is limited in side or rear crashes; effective as they are, they can’t take the place of safety belts.

Drunk driving crashes are less likely to happen if you don’t drink. Drunk driving is the most serious problem. Many people have realized that drunk driving can lead to death and injury, prison time and other results. There are movements to strengthen penalties(處罰) for drinking and driving.

1. What is the main idea of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)

2. Which of the sentences in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

Although they are effective, you should still wear your safety belts while driving.

3. Please fill in the blank with proper words to make the sentence completed.(Please answer within 6 words.)

4. Please translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.

6. What other suggestions can you offer? Why?(Please answer within 30 words.)

任務(wù)型閱讀:閱讀下面的短文并從方框中的 A-F 中為每段文字選出最佳標(biāo)題,在答題卡上將對(duì)應(yīng)的選項(xiàng)涂黑。其中有一項(xiàng)選擇是多余的。(共5小題,每小題1分,滿分5分)

A. Take some time to speak English

B. Join an English club

C. Have a mirror on the wall

D. Keep it short and simple

E. Listen to good English speakers

F. Practice with peers or family

Here are some tips to improve your spoken English.

1.

   Whatever you have learnt or read in a day, practice in front of the mirror. For a start, you can read something from newspapers, English magazines, and books. Take a passage and read it aloud. After you think your accent has improved, try reciting a poem in front of the mirror. This will increase your confidence as well.

2.

    Talk to your family members and friends in English. You can also organize debates and speeches on a low level, where everyone in your family or friend circle speaks on one topic for a few minutes. It will help you get over the fear of making mistakes, as you will be with your friends and family—your comfort zone.

3.

    Listen to people who you think are good English speakers. It will help you catch the skill better. You can also watch their videos, listen to them online, or even in person. It can be anyone from Barack Obama to your teacher in school. Find every opportunity to speak English.

4.

    You will meet people like you there and it will help you realize that you are not the only person who isn’t good at this subject. Also meeting different people will help you overcome your complex. You can also join coaching classes, which will provide you professional help in learning spoken English.

5.

Nothing is more beautiful than simplicity. So, instead of using an ambiguous(含糊不清的) language with tough words, go for simple words. Learning any new language is difficult and English is no exception. Start simple and go with the flow. With time, you would learn bigger words too.

                                                       Celebrating sleep
     World Sleep Day, observed on 21 March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of
sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world
ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common.
     In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in
10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people that responded
to the survey, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent
were diagnosed with insomnia (失眠) and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with borderline insomnia. In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems
and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.
     Overall, the survey found that many people suffer from the effects of poor quality sleep, some
examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main
factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise
pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The survey's
findings are particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping
at night. The shortterm effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating. If this happens for a long
time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase.
     There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular
sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your
bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you
should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as
caffeine may keep you from sleeping.
     Getting a good night's sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest
better at night and work better during the day.

      [1]Swimming is one of those activities that can be learned early
in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact,
you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However,
believe that five is the best age to learn. By five or six, a child knows
fear of water,  a very important thing to know. It's wise to be afraid,
to recognize true danger. Young ones understand that the water can
sometimes be very dangerous.
    [2]To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should
learn ____: butterfly,  backstroke,  breaststroke,  and crawl. I
feel that one of these-the breaststroke-is different from the
others, since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally,
without any training.
     [3]In swimming, there are certain rules every swimmer should
follow :
      (1) Never swim alone!  No matter how good you are in the
water, don't risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by
yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into
trouble.
    (2) Don't go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know
enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach Showing off
by doing dangerous tricks is no good. Swim safely and you will
continue to swim and alive.
      (3)Don't smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good
lungs are part of Lt.
      (4)Work at any activity that builds muscles.
