23、dont hold out too much hope,”Shadnoush said. State radio had originally reported the mans age as 57.

24、me alive out of the ruins of the ancient Silk Road city 1,000 kilometres southeast of Teheran since a woman in her 90s was rescued on January 3. The December 26 earthquake, which measured 6.8 on the Richter scale, struck just before dawn, destroying 90 per cent of the citys buildings and killing mor
25、e than 30,000 people. Experts say it is very rare for people to survive for more than 72 hours in such conditions. Temperatures have fallen to around freezing most nights since the earthquake struck. Tremors（震动）continued to shake another region of Iran for a third day yesterday, causing damage to bu
26、ildings but no persons, the official Iranian news agency reported. The small earthquakes, measuring 3.4 and 4.2 on the Richter scale were the latest of more than 30 tremors to make nervous the southwestern province of Khuzestan. There were no reports of any damage to its many oil installations(设置).
27、Fearful that the tremors foretell a major quake, schools in Khuzestan have been closed, ambulance and fire brigade services moved out into the open and many persons have spent the last few nights sleeping in tents. In Bam yesterday, United Nations officials, aid workers and foreign diplomats toured
28、the destroyed city to mark the launch of a 90-day UN request for funds to help the city and its survivors. “Altogether I think US$100 million has been given and promised by the international community, which is an impressive sign of international solidarity（团结）,” said Jan Egeland, UN under-secretary

30、 Mohammad Reza Tahmasbi. And it proved to be true that Chinese New Years movies are in need, for they were well received by common people in the late 1990s. However, after less than 10 years of flourishing, they are now facing a great decline in box office income.I think the failure of Chinese New Y
31、ears movies is for two main reasons：lack of creation and low quality of production.Audiences are not fools. They watch movies in order to get satisfaction, happiness and enlightenment (启发), not to be tricked by meaningless, same stories. If a movie tells a boring story, how can filmmakers expect app
32、lause (鼓掌) from the audience?And at the same time we hope that directors choose actors and actresses carefully. The success of a movie is mostly determined by a fine story and good performances. If performers arent able to communicate a characters emotions exactly, no matter how wonderful a story is
33、, the movie may be a failure. So a popular New Years movie ought to be creative and elaborately(精心地) produced.My favourite Chinese New Years movie is “Be There or Be Square” (Bu Jian Bu San), directed by Feng Xiaogang. Its a story about love and life. The hero is a Chinese man who struggles hard in
34、the US. One day, he meets a girl from Beijing. The two share the same goal：making their fortunes in America. After a series of ups and downs, they fail to realize their dreams. But, they finally fall in love with each other and decide to go back to China to make a brand new start.Feng is good at pro
35、viding humorous and simple lines with deep and strongly felt meaning. As far as the audience is concerned, it was acceptable and interesting. And the leading actor and actress showed superior performances. They cooperated so well and acted so naturally that it seemed they were truly a pair of lovers
36、.From the simple but moving story, I got a lot. Besides money and fame, there are many other beautiful things worth pursuing(追求) and loving.Good stories and actors are what the audience desire. Whether Chinese New Years movies will last in the New Years film market depends mostly on the filmmakers a
37、ttitude towards movie production. I hope that in the coming new year, I can spend several hours in a cinema enjoying a good movie instead of just chatting with my friends to escape a boring movie.61From the passage we know _.Athe author thinks highly of the present New Years moviesBthe author are co
38、mplaining of some New Years moviesCpeople dont need New Years movies nowDnone of New Years movies are well produced62In the opinion of the author, New Years movie should solve the following problems except _.Alack of creationBlow-quality of productionCdirectors careful choices of actors and actresse
39、sDsimplicity63One of the things that make the author like the movie“Be There or Be Square”（Bu Jian Bu San）is _.Ahumor, simplicity and satisfactory end Bnature, enlightenment and sad backgroundCgood theme, good performances and a brand new start Dcreation, good production and natural performances64Fi
40、lm-makers attitude to movie production will_.Amostly determine whether the New Years film market will lastBdetermine the success of the future New Years moviesCmostly determine whether Chinese New Years movies will last in the New Years film marketDdetermine Chinese film marketCGeorge E. Elliott Jr,
41、 who has died, aged 85, gave the unnoticed warning about aircraft coming near Pearl Harbour, in 1941, as described in history books and movies like “Tora, Tora, Tora”. Elliott died on Saturday of complications (并发症) from a stroke (中风), his family said. The former Army radar operator detected incomin
42、g Japanese aircraft on December 7, 1941. He then gave a warning, but it was brushed aside. Nearly an hour later, the enemy planes reached the US Navys fleet (舰队) in the harbour. In a 50-year anniversary (周年) story, a reporter from the USs Associated Press told how Elliott and another soldier, Joseph
43、 L. Lockard, had been on duty that day since 4 am at Kahuku Point on the northern tip of Oahu Island, Hawaii. They had been familiarizing themselves with a strange new invention that could “see” 130 miles (208 kilometres) out to seasomething called “radar.”Just after 7 am, Elliott saw “something com
44、pletely out of the ordinary” on the screen, a huge blip(信号), due north, 137 miles (219.2 kilometres) out. The information was called in to headquarters, and the operators were told it was a flight of B-17 Flying Fortresses due in from California.They kept tracking for practice, and the blip grew so
45、large that Lockard figured the set was broken. They turned it off at 7:45, after the blip disappeared behind Oahus mountains. About 10 minutes later, the first bombs were falling on the battleships in the harbour.Later that morning, when Elliott and Lockard arrived back at their base, they learned t
46、he significanc e of what they had observed. Elliott served in the Army until 1945, and then worked for New Jersey Bell Telephone for 33 years before retiring.In later years, his warning at Pearl Harbour brought him reward. The actions of the radar operators were described in the 1970 movie “Tora, To
47、ra, Tora,” and on television specials and in history books.65What made George E. Elliott Jr rewarded?AHis job. BHis invention. CHis warning at Pearl Harbor. DHis specials.66The word “brushed aside” in the 3rd paragraph means _.AacceptedBlovedCdetectedDrefused to pay attention to67From the passage we
48、 know George E. Elliot, Jr once mainly did _kinds of jobs. A1B2 C3 D4DExcited by the successful landing of the rover (探测机器人) on Mars, scientists from NASA (the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration) have spent the last few days studying data (数据) from the robot and working on getting it r
49、eady to roll.Spirit made a dangerous, but safe, landing on Mars on Sunday on what scientistsbelieve is the rocky bed of an ancient lake that once may have contained life.Just three hours later, the six-wheeled rover began sending black-and-white photos of its surroundings back 170 million kilometres
50、 to Earth. The rover sent back a few colour photos on Monday.The scientists were overjoyed by the success. Two of every three past purposeof landings on Mars have failed.“Its a big step forward for all humanity. Now we have another rover on another planet, exploring a new world. What more could you
51、ask for?” said Charles Elachi, director of NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory.The first images from Spirit show a flat, wind-damaged surface dotted with small rocks. The scene made scientists eager to send the rover around the planet in search of evidence(证据) that the landing site was once covered with
52、 water.The US$820 million project also includes a twin golf cart-sized rover called Opportunity, set to land on Mars other side on January 24.The dozens of initial (开始的), low-resolution (分辨能力) photos show Spirit landed upright(垂直的), level and facing south on a flat stretch of the hole the scientists
53、 believe once contained a lake.It will be about a week before the six-wheeled robot is ready to roll off its lander and move around Mars.Spirits successful landing has ended the trend of failed missions to Mars. NASAs last attempt to land on Mars, in 1999, ended in failure. Its last successful landi
54、ng was in 1997, when Pathfinder carried the tiny Sojourner rover to the surface of Mars. Over the next three months, the robot will use a range of instruments to look for evidenceof past water activity in the rocks and soil of the planet.68What is inferred in the passage?ANASA is pleased with its ro

It is the time when I realize that the books my English teacher assigned (布置) to me are not going to read themselves and that I have a
57、difficult month in front of me. You might think that I dont want to spend my summer reading, but thats not theproblem：I love reading. On the first day of my summer holiday this year, I went to the library and got “A Gathering of Old Men” by African-American writer Ernest Gaines. I enjoyed it very mu
58、ch. I read all the magazines that my parents subscribe to (订阅) and spend about 30 minutes every day with the morning paper. So why do I hate summer reading for school? Because the books on summer reading lists are often slow-going and just uninviting (不吸引人). Teachers and librarians dont understand t
59、hat summer reading can be entertaining as well as educational. They choose books that a friend of my mothers calls “spinach books”：good for you, but not much fun to take in. Every summer, I read them, hate them and get bitter about the experience. This bitterness started three years ago when I was a
60、bout to begin high school. As preparation, my English teacher told me to read “The Age of Innocence” (纯真年代) by American author Edith Wharton. Im sure there are many people who enjoyed “The Age of Innocence” some might even say its their favourite book. But I dont think any of these people read it as
61、 a 14-year-old boy on his summer vacation.“The Age of Innocence” is the story of a forbidden romance in New York 100 years ago. At 14, my only experience with romance was my love for baseball. I couldnt imagine being in love, much less being in love in 1900. “The Age of Innocence”was totally differe
62、nt to my life. Most of my required summer reading has been like that books written in a style that plays up the adjectives and plays down the verbs. I guess teachers dont think exciting plots make for “good literature”. To me, though, a good writer describes events and characters in a way that makes
63、 the reader want to know what happens next. If I were making up a summer reading list, it would include “The Friends of Eddie Coyle” by George V. Higgins, “The Right Stuff” by Tom Wolfe, and “Into Thin Air” by Jon Krakauer. These are all books that have literary value but, just as important, can als

If the teachers could stand a little fun in the books they assign, my Augusts would be a lot more enjoyable.71The author thinks he/she will have a difficult August because_.Ahe/she doesnt like reading in summer vacationBhe/she is to read the books, boring and not right
