The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years
32、. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift$ 7,000, a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. “It really made a difference when we were going under financially.” says Dave.But the Fusses werent the only people in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to re
33、ceive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in other, it was more than $ 100,000.

40、ir example. CThere are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the
41、 information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English
42、: beginning, intermediate (中等), and native speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjec
43、ts had to circle the word they had heard in the recording, Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system wo
44、uld be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the
45、same meaning. Hennings results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.65. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Information in short-term memory is
46、different from that in long-term memory.B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long, term memory.D. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.66. From Hennings result we can see that _.A. beginners have difficulty distingu
47、ishing the pronunciation of wordsB. advanced students always remember words by their meaningC. it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning67. The word subject in the passage means _.A. memory B. the theme of listening materialC. a
48、 branch of knowledge studied D. the student experimented on68. The passage centers on _.A. memory B. two kinds of memory C. short-term memory D. an experiment on studentsDNever give out identifying information such as Name, Home, Address, School Name, or Telephone Number in a public message such as
49、at a chat room or on bulletin boards(布告牌). Never send a person a picture of you without first checking with your parents. Never reply to message or bulletin board items that are: Suggestive/Obscene(下流的)/Ready to fight/Express intention to hurt/Make you feel uncomfortable. Be careful when someone off
50、ers something for nothing such as gifts and money. Be very careful about any offers that get you to meet or have someone visit your house. Tell your parents right away if you come across any information that makes you feel uncomfortable. Never arrange a face-to-face meeting without telling your pare
51、nts. If your parents agree to the meeting, make sure that you meet in a public place and have a parent with you. Remember that people online may not be who they seem. Because you cant see or even hear the person, it would be easy for someone to misrepresent himself/herself. Thus someone says that “s
52、he is a 12-year-old girl” could really be an old man. Be sure that you are dealing with someone that you and your parents know and trust before giving out any personal information about yourself through E-mail. Get to know your “online friend” just as you get to know all of your friends. 69. The bes
53、t title for this passage is _. A. Warnings against making online friends B. Message one can get on the InternetC. How to make friends on the Internet D. Safety tips for kids on the Internet70. The underlined word” misrepresent” in the passage means _. A. making a wrong judgment about B. understandin
54、g somebody wronglyC. giving a wrong description of D. forming a wrong opinion aboutEIn 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist. So he invented a very simple camera. He put in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the firs
55、t photograph. The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another French, took a picture of his studio. He used a new kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest details. This kind of photo
56、graph was called a daguerreotype. Soon, other people began to use Daguerres process. Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world. People photographed famous buildings, cities and mountains. In about 1840, the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people
57、and moving things. The process was not simple. The photographers had to carry lots of films and processing equipment. But this did not stop the photographers, especially in the United States. After 1840s daguerreotype artists were popular in most cities. Mathew Brady was a well-known American photog
58、rapher. He took many pictures of famous people. The pictures were unusual because they were very life-like and full of personality(个性). Brady was also the first person to take pictures of war. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and ruined cities. They made the war seem more real and mo
59、re terrible. In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. Photographers could buy films ready-made in rolls(卷). So they did not have to make the film themselves. Also, they did not have to process the film immediately. They could bring it back to their studios and develop it later meani
60、ng that they did not have to carry lots of equipment. And finally, the invention of the small handheld camera made photography less expensive. With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. People began to use cameras just for fun. They took pictures of their families, friends and favorite p
61、laces. They called these pictures “snapshot”. Photographs became very popular in newspapers in the 1890s. Soon magazines and books also used documentary photographs. These pictures showed true events and people. They were much more real than drawing. Photography also turned into a form of art by the
62、 end of the 19th century. Some photographs were not just copies of the real world. They showed ideas and feelings like other art forms. 72. The passage is mainly about _. A. the invention of camerasB. a kind of new art-photographyC. the development of photographyD. the important dates in the history

73、 has many advantages. Firstly, by looking at our own country from outside, we can widen our vision and broaden our minds. Secondly, we can visit famous scenic spots and make friends with the local people. Thirdly, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our ability in the second la
74、nguage may be improved quickly. However, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign school. The most serious problem is the language barrier. Most students do not have adequate knowledge of the language spoken there. On arriving there, they find it difficult to understand what the teac
75、hers are saying. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, so most students have to find part-time jobs to support themselves. Faced with these difficulties, many students find themselves unable to pay full attention to their studies and learn little. On the whole, it is a good thing to study abroad. However, one must not lose sight of the disadvantages.
