Was Princess Diana murdered? The verdict(判決) is no. according to an inquiry(調(diào)查) held into the cause of her death over the last six months.

The big question was whether the deaths of Diana and her boyfriend Dodi A1 Fayed in a deadly car crash in 1997 had been accidental, or whether there was some kind of conspiracy(陰謀) to have them killed.

Dodi’s father Mohamed A1 Fayed, owner of London’s world-famous department store Harrods, has insisted for the last decade that the pair were murdered by spies of the British state who did not want them to marry. But his theories now look to have been blown out of the water.  The court found that Princess Diana and her boyfriend were not murdered but killed due to the “gross, carelessness” of her driver and the paparazzi(偷拍的攝影記者). Her driver was drunk at the time of the crash and the paparazzi had been running after their car.

So is this the end of the Diana story? British taxpayers may hope so. The inquiry has cost them about £10m (140m RMB). “Thank God it’s over”, was the headline in The Guardian newspaper. UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown said it was time to “draw a line” under the death of the Princess. But Mohamed AI Fayed has refused to accept the judgment. He says the result will come as a “blow” to millions of his supporters around the world, and has not ruled out starting another investigation.

Whatever happens, next, the special place Princess Diana has in the hearts of people around the world is not likely to be forgotten.

1.According to the text, the inquiry focuses on _______.

      A.what caused the deaths of Diana and her boyfriend

      B.who were the paparazzi

      C.how much British taxpayers paid for the case

       D.whether the driver was drunk then .

2.By saying the underlined “his theories now look to have been blown out of the water”, the author means that ________.

      A.Mohamed lacks confidence in the case

      B.Mohamed feels disappointed at the result

      C.Mohamed’s idea seems to be believable

       D.Mohamed’s idea possibly proves to be wrong

3.Similar to The Guardian newspaper, UK Prime Minister ________.

      A.felt sorry for the deadly car crash

      B.questioned the purpose of Dodi’s father

      C.stood for the court’s judgment

      D.blamed the paparazzi for their bad behavior

Andy Steele lives just a few blocks from the campus of Black Hills State University in Spearfish, S.D., so commuting(經(jīng)常往返) to class isn’t the problem. But he doesn’t like lectures much, isn’t a morning person, and wants time during the day to restore motorcycles.

So Steele, a full-time senior business major, has been taking as many classes as he can from the South Dakota State system’s online offerings. He gets better grades and learns more, he says, and insists he isn’t missing out on the college experience.

“I still know a lot of people from my first two years living on campus, and I still meet a lot of people,” he says. But now, he sets his own schedule.

At least 2.3 million people took some kind of online courses, according to a recent survey by The Sloan Consortium, an online education group, and two-thirds of colleges offering “face-to-face” courses also offer online ones. But what were once two different types of classes are looking more and more alike and often falling into the same pool of students.

At some schools, online courses originally intended for non-traditional students living far from campus have proved surprisingly popular with on-campus students. A recent study found 42 percent of the students enrolled(登記) in its distance education courses were located on campus at the university that was hosting the online courses.

Numbers vary depending on the policies of particular colleges, but other schools also have students mixing and matching online and “face-to-face” credits. Motives range from lifestyle to adapting a job schedule to getting into high--demand courses.

Washington State had about 325 on-campus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last year. As many as 9,000 students took both distance and in-person classes at Arizona State last year.

“Business is really about providing choices to their customers, and that’s really what we want to do,” said Sheila Asker, extended services coordinator (協(xié)調(diào)人) at Black Hills State.

Many schools, such as Washington State and Arizona State, let departments and academic units decide who can take an online course. They say students with legitimate academic needs a conflict with another class, a course they need to graduate that is full--often get permission, though they still must take some key classes in person.

1.What is the purpose of the passage?

      A.To introduce Steele to us, who prefers online courses.

      B.To tell us about the development of campus courses.

      C.To show the differences between campus courses and online courses.

      D.To show more on-campus students are taking online courses.

2.We can learn from the passage that Andy Steele _______.

      A.lives far from the campus

       B.knows none of his classmates

       C.wants to have his own lifestyle

       D.doesn’t get good marks

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

       A.The undergraduates attend the online courses for different purposes.

       B.It is expected that distance education is popular with on- campus students.

       C.About 325 on-campus undergraduates took online courses in Washington last year.

      D.Different colleges have different policies about online courses.

4.From what Sheila Asker said in the passage, we can tell _______.

       A.business is the most popular major in universities

      B.colleges should provide more majors for students

       C.where the similarity between business and colleges lies

       D.why colleges offer online courses to on-campus students

Tattoos(紋身) and body piercing(穿洞) have moved up on the trend list in recent years. Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and flesh ink. Like all other subjects, we’ll surely be faced with such situation. To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let’s sit down and hear what they say.

Kerstin Otto from Washington:

The hotter it gets and the more layers of clothing disappear, the more tattoos and piercing appear on various places of the human body, I wouldn’t be caught dead with a snake tattooed on my ankle or with a piece of metal stuck in my belly button.

Erin from Indiana:

I think body piercing is cool. In most situations, you don’t really have to worry about it getting torn out. I go to Noblesville High School. I am a sophomore (that is the l0th grade). Body piercing can be cool, only if it is not taken to too much of an extent. I would not want to get my nose pierced, just because I think I’ll look bad. But that is my personal opinion. I guess that type of thing is a cultural difference.

Tiara from Indiana:

I personally think body piercing is sickening. If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them. I do, however, think that ear piercing, is not wrong.  There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing. Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous. I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button.

Lee from Illinois:

Hi! I live in Illinois. I am 23.I have 12 tattoos and three piercing. I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector. You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs-up on my art work. People on the street stop me to look at that on my leg. Most of them don’t know what it is. They just think the work itself is great.

Subotai from California:

I’m not prohibitive(禁止)of self-expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder. In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion. A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin. It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow’s.

Nagib from Washington:

I wanted an earring. My friends had them and it looked like a cool thing. I wanted to get a nose ring, but my mum wouldn’t let me. Now I’m glad I didn’t get it. I just wanted a little stud, but I wouldn’t have looked good with it.

Jackson from Ohio:

I don’t think it’s wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything —I think that’s ridiculous. People who get the big dragons that cover your whole body—I don’t think that’s necessary. When I see naked chicks on guys, I think. “You have no respect for women.”

Brittany from New York:

You don’t want to do stuff to your body. You don t need to do that because you were made perfect. You don’t need to add piercing. If it will make you feel beautiful and you really feel like you need to do it for yourself, then okay. If it really makes a big difference impacting your self-esteem and how you are towards others, then do it. But otherwise, don’t mess with what you got. Maybe you should try something more substantial(充實(shí)的) to find beauty in yourself.

1.Who is wholeheartedly lost in tattoos and piercing?

       A.Tiara                   B.Erin                    C.Nagib.                 D.Lee.

2.Who doesn’t think tattoos and piercing are beautiful?

       A.Jackson.             B.Brittany.              C.Tiara.                 D.Nagy.

3.We can conclude that ________.

       A.tattoos and piercing are a new kind of elegant art

       B.a(chǎn)ll the teachers in the West are in favor of tattoos and piercing

       C.everything is changeable with time going on

       D.it is necessary to live with all different views of beauty

4.The best title for this passage is probably _________.

       A.Body Art or Damage

       B.Damage to the Youth’s Body

      C.Young People’s Different Curiosities

       D.A Great Anxiety About Young People

Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life.

Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.

One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story.  On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.

The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.

Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children.

Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression.

The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.

These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.

1.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence

development in babies?

      A.The environment.                                B.Mother’s sensitivity.

       C.Their peers(同齡人)                      D.Education before birth.

2.What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories?

      A.To prove that babies can learn before they are born.

      B.To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born.

      C.To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies.

      D.To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skills.

3.Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?

      A.The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.

      B.The children of women who did not suffer from depression.

      C.The children of depressed but caring mothers.

       D.Children with high communication abilities.

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

      A.Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth.

      B.Scientific findings about how the environment has an effect on babies’ intelligence.

      C.A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are rice or six months old.

      D.Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies.

The modem Olympic Games were founded with the intention of improving health and education, promoting world peace and encouraging fair and equal competition. But over the years, the Olympic saying, “Faster, higher, stronger”, has pushed scientists as well as athletes to do everything possible to reach new levels.

Doctors, engineers and coaches all use everything science can offer to achieve that little bit extra in competition. The reason modern technology has become part of sport is very simple: Winning is just as important as it was 2,500 years ago at the Olympics of ancient Greece.

Development in technology has often been reflected in the methods of training and performance used at the Olympics through history. This technology falls into two main groups: improving an athlete’s performance in competition, and allowing results to be measured more accurately.

One of the creations that have drawn the most attention is the new high-tech swimsuit from Speedo, which was used by most US swimmers in Athens. Until Sydney 2000, it was thought that the smaller the swimsuit, the faster the swimmer would travel.

“However, the fact that at the Sydney Olympics, 28 of the 33 gold medalists were wearing the body covering Fastskin suit proved the theory was out of date,” said Andy Thomas, vice-president of Speedo.

The company’s full body suit is supposed to make swimmers 3 to 4 percent faster, particularly when turning or diving into the water. It is believed that the suit creates less water resistance as it moves, behaving more like a shark skin than a human skin.

  The introduction of high-tech equipment means that athletes in all sports, from the 100-metre sprint(短跑) to the pole vault(撐桿跳高), can now train more effectively and nourish (給…以營(yíng)養(yǎng)) their bodies better.

Meanwhile, scientific development also means performances can be measured and studied far more accurately. Not only are winning times more accurately recorded, but cheating athletes are also easier to catch out. According to International Olympic Committee (IOC) requirements, two independent measuring systems should be used at all venues(比賽地點(diǎn)). Athens 2004 organizers used only the very latest equipment to measure distance and speed.

The (1)_____

The (3)________

Science can (4)_______ athletes’ performance.

Science can get results (8)______ more accurately.

Winning is the most (2)_______ thing.

High—tech swimsuit from Speedo can make  swimmers 3 to 4 percent faster and was (5)______ by 28 of the 33 gold medal (6)______ at the Sydney Olympics.

Athletes in all  sports can train in a  more effective (7)_______

Winning times can
