20、And to everyones surprise , when William was being 47 by reporters, he answered their questions by speaking 48 by singing. And he did it with good 49 , and with a clear and pleasant voice.From that day, William 50 singing at all hours. Now he sang only during his stage appearances. Some people had a
21、n idea 51 he had changed, but others still had none, and continued believing him to be somewhat 52 . They wouldnt have thought so if they had seen what William kept in his big suitcase. It was a large stone, with a hand-carved message on it.The message said: Practice, my boy. Practice every second,

26、n nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think youll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you dont believe, you may do a small experiment.First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a w
27、hite piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a mans mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to s
28、ay, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color
29、stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs .According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or youll be nervo
30、us or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, youll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, youll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a bl
31、ue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.56. The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us _. A. a red box is heavier than a white one B. a color has weight in ones mind C. white paper is lighter than red paper D. you can know the weig
32、ht of a color by holding it 57. Why did the scientist say colors have smell? A. Because people can sense the light from colors. B. Because we can smell colors with our nose. C. Because every color has its own sweet smell. D. Because every color can give off light of the same length.58. If a person w
33、alks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will _.A. riseB. fallC. stay the sameD. change now and then59. It can be implied from the text that _. A. colors have orders in weight B. colors can change the weight of an object C. people would stay longer in a room with red windowsD. color
34、s can affect our mood and health60. This passage is probably a _. A. book reviewB. fiction novelC. fairy taleD. science reportBPop stars today enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty (皇室). Wherever they go, people turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a b
35、rief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls Royces, private helicopters or executive aeroplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage(随从) of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in t
36、he press and all their comings and goings are reported，for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public. They must be constantly shielded
37、 from the adoring crowds who idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are great.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days
38、of Hollywood have become legendary: famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation (奉承) on an all time scale. By today s standards, the excesses of Hollywood do not seem quite so spectacular. A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. Th
39、e competition for the title “Top of the Pops” is fierce, but the rewards are truly huge.It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Dont the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the service they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in for
40、eign currency often more than large industrial companies and the taxman can only be grateful for their massive annual contributions to the exchequer(国库). So who would begrudge them their rewards?Its all very well for people in boring jobs to complain about the successes and rewards of others. People
41、 who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very hig
42、h rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limit to what he can earn. But a man who attempts to become a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort m
43、ay be rewarded with complete failure. But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the payback for the huge risks involved and once he makes it, he will certainly earn them. That s the essence of private enterprise.61The author develops the passage mainly by _.A. co
44、mparing different ideasB. giving explanationsC. inferringD. listing typical examples62. The underlined word “begrudge” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. be jealous of B. be satisfied withC. be anxious about D. be crazy about63According to the passage, which of the following can ma
45、tch the view of the author?A. He who laughs last laughs best.B. If you venture nothing, you will gain nothing.C. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.D. Success belongs to the persevering.64The author holds a(n) _attitude towards the high income of pop stars.A. critical B. approvalC. optimistic D.
46、 indifferent65Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People are blind in idolizing stars.B. There is fierce competition in becoming pop stars.C. The government taxes pop stars very little.D. Pop stars life is more luxurious than that of royalty.CThe world is not coming to an end
47、on December 21, 2012, the US space agency insisted Monday in a rare campaign to dispel widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie.The latest big screen offering from Sony Picture, 2012, arrives in theaters on Friday, with a 200milliondollar production about the end of the wor
48、ld supposedly based on myths (虚构的故事) backed by the Mayan calendar. It is claimed that the end of time will come as a Planet X or Nibiru heads toward or collides with the Earth.Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet s existence, but the US space agency denounced such stories as a
49、n “Internet hoax(恶作剧) ”. “There is no factual basis for these claims，” NASA said in a question and answer posting on its website. “If such a collision were real, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does
50、not exist. Credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012, ” it insisted. “After all, our planet has been getting along just well for more than four billion years，” added NASA.There is another planet, Eris, floating in space. But the small planet similar to Pluto will remain sa
51、fely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the Earth, according to NASA.Initial theories set the disaster for May 2003, but when nothing happened the date was moved forward to the winter in 2012 to coincide with the end of a cycle of the ancient Mayan c
52、alendar.NASA insisted the Mayan calendar in fact does not end on December 21, 2012, as another period begins immediately afterward.And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast, the effect on our planet would be “negligible”， NASA said.“And while comets and asteroids (小行星) have alway
53、s hit the Earth, big hits are very rare，” NASA noted. The last major impact was believed to be 65 million years ago，resulting in the end of dinosaurs.“We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs，” the space agency said.66_played a
