The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment to draw a picture of 36 for which they were thankful.Most of the class might be 37 economically disadvantaged, but still many would 38 the holiday

Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teachers true child of misery, 41 and unhappy. As other children p
19、layed at recess, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side. One could only guess the pain Douglas felt 42 those sad eyes.Yes, his picture was different. When 43 to draw a picture of something for which he was thankful, he drew a 44 nothing else. Just a empty hand.His abstract image captured the
20、45 of his classmates, Whose hand could it be ? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers 46 turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and 47 people. And so the discussion went - until the teacher 48 forgot the young artist himself. 49 the children h

The little boy looked away and murmured, “Its yours, teacher.”She recalled the 51 she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, as she had other student. How 52 had she said, “Take your
22、hand, Douglas, well go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Lets do this together.” Douglas was most 53 for his teachers hand.Brushing aside a tear, she went on with her work.In fact, people 54 not always say “thanks”.

Two years later scientists have found that these “stones” are, in fact, the
26、 priceless fossils of eight giant dinosaurs. They are thought to be the largest ever found in Asia.We know that these animals walked the earth in the Jurassic period, around 160 million years ago. According to scientists, these plant-eating dinosaurs weighed 100 tons and had before only been found i
27、n Africa and South America. How did one end up on a Chinese hillside? The answer lies in continental drift, says Professor Xu Xing, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.According to this theory, the earth began as a solid mass of land. Pieces of the land went their separate ways over the
28、course of the following millions of years. Thats why the discovery of these dinosaurs today is far away from their original home.A complete dinosaur fossil has also been unearthed in Northwest Chinas Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.The digging is being televised nationwide by China Central Televisi
29、on. It is the first time a dinosaur fossil excavation has been shown live in China.How is a fossil formed?The dinosaur died. The flesh rotted and left hard parts like the bones and teeth.The body was quickly covered by sand and mud.After a long time, water put minerals into the bones and replaced th
30、e chemicals in the bones with rock-like minerals.This process left a rock-like copy of the original animal-a fossil.56Which of the following best describes the main point of the passage? ADinosaur fossils were discovered in Ningxia and Xinjiang.BDinosaurs original home is Africa and South America.CT
31、he dinosaur fossil formed 160 million years ago.DThe continental drift resulted in the disappearance of dinosaurs.57Choose the right order of the fossil formation: aSand covered the dead body.bThe bones and teeth became things just like stones.cDinosaur died.100080dThe flesh went rotten.eMinerals go

33、rds dose not mean the same as others?Abeing unearthedBexcavationCdiggingDdiscoveryBWhat would happen if the sea level rose 25 metres? What kind of planet would we live on if global temperatures went up two or three degrees Celsius?A recent report by the United States National Aeronautics and Space A
34、dministration(NASA) makes depressing reading. It says the earth would be a totally different place if temperatures went up.James Hansen who led the study explains that, “If warming is kept less than one degree Celsius, the effects of global warming may be relatively manageable.” But he said, “If it
35、rose 2 to 3 degrees the sea level would be about 25 meters higher than today.”?What effects would a 25-metre increase in sea level have? Well, it would leave Shanghais under 23 metres of water. Its 17 million residents would have to leave, or be washed away. Around the world billions of people would
36、 have to give up their homes and jobs to escape floods.Humans would not be the only ones affected. If global warming continues, animals and humans will be forced to share a much smaller amount of land. Moreover, along with the rise in world population, can you guess the result of more people living
37、on less land? It will mean greater competition for resources like food and clean water. Competition could easily become conflict. But Professor Thomas Gale Moore of Stanford University, California, US, disagrees. In an article titled “Why Global Warming Would be Good for You”, Moore argues that” 6,0
38、00 years ago the earth experienced much hotter temperatures? The desert was full of plants? There was plenty of water for humans and animals.”NASA says the rise in temperature is related to so-called greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. But Moore claims this is wrong.
39、 “Some scientists believe that polluting gasses cause temperatures to rise. In the past, temperatures rose before levels of gasses, not after gasses rose.”The professor concludes that sea levels will rise by no more than 30 centimetres and this will not be noticed by most people around the world.60T
40、he story is mainly written to .Aexplain the different causes of global warmingBanalyze how people will be affected by global warmingCshow scientists hold different opinions about global warmingDremind people to do more to protect the environment61Which of the following below shows the right order, a

43、sure how bad the effects of global warming will be CAdama, 24, almost died making the journey from Burkina Faso in Africa to Spain. Because he was an illegal migrant, he had to make the dangerous journey in a small boat which nearly sank.He finally arrived in Madrid, Spain hoping for a better life,
44、but his troubles didnt end there. He has found it difficult to get a job, and has often had to sleep on the streets.“In my country, at least I was able to eat. I felt very miserable. But I kept fighting, because I had to make a life for myself,” he said.Adama is one of 191 million people who have le
45、ft their birthplace for a new life in another country, according to a United Nations report published on September 6. “State of the World Population” tells varied stories of people who leave home to look for a better life.Most migrants move to wealthy nations, since they offer opportunities for high
46、er wages, better education and healthcare. In the report, UN Secretary General Kofi Annan emphasized the positive effects of migration. Migrants are prepared to take jobs, which local people dont want to do such as cleaning and agricultural labour.Migrants work very hard because many want to earn mo
47、ney to send back to their poor families. The report showed that money sent home by migrants totalled US$232 billion in 2005, more than twice the amount 10 years ago? India, China and Mexico benefit most.Many migrants move to Europe, which has an ageing population and not enough young workers. Migran
48、ts help to fill gaps in the labour market and support older people in retirement.But critics of immigration say migrants are a threat to peoples jobs. They claim migrants lower working standards because they are prepared to accept less money and fewer benefits. Many people fear too much immigration
49、will destroy their traditional societies.Other critics say Western countries should not encourage skilled workers to leave their homelands. It can lead to a shortage of skilled labour in less developed places like Africa, where there are now too few nurses to work in the hospitals.“There is an urgen
50、t need for stronger co-operation between countries to make migration safe and fair,” said Thoraya Ahmed Obaid, executive director of the United Nations population Fund.64Adama serves as an example of .Aillegal immigrants who are heavily criticizedBmillions of immigrants who seek a better lifeCimmigr
51、ants who send lots of money back homeDpeople who live a miserable life in foreign countries65The purpose of the passage is to .Adraw peoples attention to the issue of migrantsBexplain why critics dont favour immigrationChelp Adama to find a better jobDencourage migrants in developed countries66Criti

With heavy snowflakes flying around him, Xia felt sha
54、ttered by the piercing cold wind? He couldnt move one more step. So his friends tied him to the tail of a horse, dragging him forward.“You cant imagine the cold, fighting for breath on the high mountain,” said Xia. “But I survived thanks to help from other soldiers and our strong willpower.”Xia was
55、among the soldiers who overcame the dangers of the 12,500-kilometre Long March. Surrounded by Chiang Kai-sheks Kuomintang Army, the Red Army began the two-year march to escape. On October 22,1936, they finally succeeded, arriving at Shaanxi.This year marks the 70th anniversary of the victory? Sevent
56、y years have passed, but stories of the Red Armys bravery have been passed down through families. “I was quite touched when my grandfather told me his wartime stories,” said Guan Yingran, 17. His grandfather experienced countless dangers after he joined the Red Army at the age of eight.“Gradfather s
57、aid it was their belief in winning a better life for all the people that finally led them out of darkness,” said Guan.Yin Weidong a policeman who retraced the full route in October, fully understands the power of belief. The 34-year-old was really frightened when he fell into a swamp. “It helped me
58、understand the spirit of the Long March which means you must never give up hope.”Recent years have seen groups of people like Yin retrace the march. Two Englishmen finished their new Long March in 2003. This summer students from 13 universities took part in a relay to cover the full route. In this w
59、ay they figured out what young people could learn from the Long March.Lin Lu, a 17-year-old girl said the Long March encouraged her to work hard during Senior 3. “Like the soldiers, I believe in myself and that I can win a place at my dream school.” However, she said her bitterness is nothing compar
60、ed to that of the army. “They lost their lives, but all that I lost was a few hours sleep.”“In modern society where beliefs tend to be lost, the Long March teaches people to search for them again,” said Wang Shuzeng, author of the book “Long March” in 2006.68The experience of Xia .Ashowed how tough

Al-Bahelys family was forced to leave Iraq in 1991 after the first Gulf War. They fled life under Saddam Hussein fo
65、r a new beginning in Canada. “We are proud that this terrible man will get what he deserves.”An Iraqi court has sentenced Saddam, 69, to death after a 13-month trial. He was found responsible for the killings of 148 people in a village, north of Baghdad in 1982. The murders were carried out in reven
66、ge for an attempt on Saddams life.Thousands of Iraqis oppressed during Saddams 24-year rule took, to the streets to celebrate. Meanwhile, groups near Saddams hometown of Tikrit gathered to support the former president. “Well avenge you, Saddam,” the crowd shouted.But many simply remained calm. “Whet
67、her Saddam lives or dies is not important to me?,” said Imad Mohammed, a computer engineer. “Im not even sure whether my family and I will live or die.”Iraqis were not the only ones to have different views on the courts decision. The international community was also divided over the sentence.US Pres
68、ident George W. Bush called the trial a milestone in the Iraqi peoples efforts to replace a tyrant with the rule of law. But many European countries said Saddam should not be put to death. The Catholic Church called the sentence “eye for an eye” revenge. “This is not the way to present the new Iraq
69、to the world. It should be different from the way of Saddam, who was behind hundreds of thousands of deaths,” said an Italian organization opposed to the death penalty. Islamic leaders warned that hanging Saddam could lead to revenge by Saddams supporters, deepening the rift(不和)in the war-torn count
70、ry. According to new research by a leading US university, over 650,000 Iraqis have been killed since the 2003 Iraq War began.“They blame Saddam for killing people. But who will judge the leaders for the killings that happen every day now?” said 30-year-old Bahjat. He refused to give his full name ou
71、t of fear. “The sentence is just an important settlement with the past, but the big challenge for Iraqs people is the future. Big compromises are required for lasting freedom and secured peace,” said Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt. 71What can we learn from what Ahmad Al-Bahely said?AMany people

73、nged.73From the story, we can conclude that the death sentence given to Saddam is .Acausing controversy among people around the world Bgood news for the world peace Cbad for Iraq because it will cause more fighting Dwhat Iraqis have expected for a long time74According to what Imad Mohammed and Bahja
74、t said, we know that .Athey care more about their present and future livesBIraqis dont value their lives very muchCsome Iraqis dont care about the future of their countryDIraqis are opposed to the death penalty75The passage is mainly about .Ahow people reacted to Saddams death sentenceBwhy Saddam wa
