Question: What is more astonishing than a 60-ton whale on a flatbed truck being driven down the street?

       Answer: A 60-ton whale on a flatbed truck exploding and raining blubber ( fat of whales ) all over the sidewalk

       That’s what happened in Taiwan recently , when a dead sperm whale being shipped to the Halobios Research Centre for an autopsy (尸體解剖) developed an extremely bad case of gas  and blew up before it reached its destination .

       The whale was found alive on a Taiwan beach last weekend, and died shortly after it was discovered. Since the 56-foot whale was the largest whale ever beached on Taiwan’s shores, scientists wanted to study it and perform an autopsy for educational purpose.

       Obviously, too much time passed between when the animal died and the time it was set to be moved to the autopsy location, because it had already started to go bad. When things rot, they give off gasses as a by-product. In the whale’s case, the gases were trapped in its belly. The pressure inside the rotting creature grew so much that it popped like an over-filled balloon. Unfortunately , it was on a truck in the middle of the city of Taiwan at the time — cars and shops lining the street were covered with whale bits and juices , much to their owners’ discouragement .

       According to news reports, traffic was tied up for hours while officials tried to clean up the streets.

       Newspaper editors worldwide were probably smiling to themselves , since they had a ready-made headline —several reports about the incident were titled “ There She Blows ! ” after the famous line from the book Moby Dick

1．The purpose of the question at the beginning of this news report is to __________.

       A．explain the reason                                       B．sell newspapers

C．a(chǎn)ttract readers                                            D．give an immediate answer

2．The whale’s explosion is the result of _________.

       A．pressure from gases building up in the creature as it began to rot

B．the long transport of the creature from the beach to the center

C．the extremely busy traffic in the streets it passed by

D．the quick process of rotting of the animal

3．What is the correct order of the incidents?

       a．The whale was se o a flatbed truck               b．The whale was discovered

c．The whale exploded                                     d．The whale died

A．b ; c ; a ; d              B．d ; c ; b ; a             

C．b ; d ; a ; c             D．d ; b ; a ; c

4．What do we know from the last paragraph?

       A．Some newspaper editors were laughed at

B．Moby Dick is he name of a woman writer

C．All the newspapers reported the story under the same title

D．The title “ There She Blows ! ” is taken from the book Moby Dick .

So often our needs are defined by things that don’t get us much: the comfort of having lots of stuff, the image we want to portray, the social pressure to appear to be rich, the fantastic idea of having something new for its own sake, like a new car or new TV or the latest fashion. For years, we have spoken to our customers about the difference between fashion and style. We’ve tried our best to encourage style and reinforce the concept that style isn’t fashion. It comes from your imagination and is developed slowly. It’s reflection of your values.

Today, more than ever, the direction of an environmentally conscious style is not to have luxury or conspicuous (炫耀的) consumption written all over your clothes. This is still our message. We believe this could be best achieved by simply asking yourself before you buy something (from us or any other company ) whether this is something you really need. It could be you’ll buy more or less from us, but only what you need. We’ll be happy to adjust our business up or down accordingly, because we’ll feel we are then contributing to a healthier attitude about consumption. We know this is an opinion against the growth of economy, but frankly, if this kind of thinking doesn’t catch on quickly, we, like a plague of locusts, will swallow all that’s left of the planet. We could make the decision to reduce our consumption, or the decision will soon be made for us.

    We are optimistic that we can change course and avoid the disastrous destination toward which we’re heading. We also believe that there are many events occurring throughout the world right now which support this outlook. We’ve experienced big changes in people’s attitudes about some extremely important philosophical issues and values.

Our purchasing habits have enormous influence. By changing the things that make us happy and buying less stuff, we can reduce the terrible impact we have been placing on the environment. We can buy for vital needs, not silly self-satisfying needs. We do need clothes, yes, but so many?

While we’re advocating responsible consumption, we want to suggest one more idea. What you save, if you do, through changing your purchasing habits, contributes to one of the thousands of social and environmental organizations that are working to correct, repair, preserve or halt the damage to which our consumptive ways and economic system have led us.

We all have to work together to preserve the continuity of natural cycles and processes. If we don’t we’ll have no inheritance to give to our grandchildren. All will be gone. Our place in history will be that of the greatest mismanagers of the Earth, not such a loving way to be remembered!

1．According to the passage,          is an appropriate attitude toward consumption.

       A．buying what you need                          B．changing consumptive ways

       C．pursuing the latest fashion                    D．buying things that satisfy us

2．Which of the following is closest to the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?

       A．We’re heading for a disastrous destination and cannot change the course.

       B．Have a healthier attitude towards consumption, or we will be punished by nature one day.

       C．Get rid of the locust disaster, otherwise we will never be able to live a happy life.

       D．If we cannot manage the economic growth well, less consumption won’t be accomplished.

3．We can learn from the passage that               .

       A．consumers’ wise purchasing will benefit the finance of the company

       B．it is certain that Esprit will change consumers’ attitude by getting across its idea

       C．to change purchasing habits, consumers have to donate to environmental organizations

       D．pursuing style is more meaningful than pursuing fashion since it reflects personal values

4．The purpose of the passage is to             .

       A．encourage people to make a difference in fashion

       B．a(chǎn)ppeal for responsible consumption

       C．shorten the distance between Esprit and the consumers

March 11 is a day that I will never forget.                            .

David and Victoria Beckham are firing their sons’ uncles. Well, sort of . The couple will be forced to let go of their eight longtime security guards when they move to the States this summer. According to the Sun, the Beckham children, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, are so close to the guards that they consider them their uncles.

1,3,5

An insider told the newspaper, “Posh and Becks’ personal protection group have been with them for a good few years. But they won’t be allowed to work for them in America because they do not qualify for work permits because of the strict regulations surrounding work permits in the US. It is looking like the Becks will have to give them all the sack because they will rarely be outside the US and won’t be needed. The hunt is now on to find an American security team to look after them in LA. It’s proving to be a massive headache because David and Victoria are comfortable and so happy with their current team.”

The current guards have qualifications hard to match. Two of them are former members of Britain’s Special Air service. But considering the fact that the Beckhams pay their guards about $3,000 a week and the guards get two weeks off every month, it’s likely that they will attract some qualified candidates in Los Angeles as well.

1．From this passage, we know that ____________.

       A．the Becks are not satisfied with their security guards

       B．the current guards are popular with the Beckham kids

       C．American guards are better qualified than British ones

       D．security guards are always loyal and well paid

2．What does the underlined expression “give them all the sack” mean?

       A．To help them to find new jobs.

       B．To stay inside while in the US.

       C．To get all of them dismissed.

       D．To offer them a large sum of money.

3．What does the author want to tell us through the last paragraph?

       A．It will not be difficult for the Becks to find new guards in America.

       B．The American guards are sure to be worse than the current ones.

       C．The Becks prefer their guards to have army backgrounds.

       D．The Becks have a good relationship with their American guards.

4．When will the Beckhams begin the hunt for a new American protection group?

       A．It will begin this summer.

       B．It will begin right now.

       C．It began a few years ago.

       D．It has already been on.

5．Which section of a newspaper does this passage probably belong to?

       A．Sports.     B．Opinions.  C．Entertainment.  D．Business.
