19、he afternoon, and I was putting the final touch on a piece of writing that I was feeling pretty good about. I wanted to save it, but my cursor(光标) had frozen. I tried to shut the computer down, and it seized up altogether. Unsure of what else to do, I yanked (用力猛拉) the battery out.Unfortunately, Win
20、dows had been in the midst of a crucial(紧要关头) undertaking. The next morning, when I turned my computer back on, it informed me that a file had been corrupted and Windows would not load. Then, it offered to repair itself by using the Windows Setup CD.I opened the special drawer where I keep CDs. But
21、no Windows CD in there. I was forced to call the computer companys Global Support Centre. My call was answered by a woman in some unnamed, far-off land. I find it annoying to make small talk with someone when I dont know what continent theyre standing on. Suppose I were to comment on the beautiful w
22、eather weve been having when there was a monsoon(季风) at the other end of the phone? So I got right to the point.My computer is telling me a file is corrupted and it wants to fix itself, but I dont have the Windows Setup CD.So youre having a problem with your Windows Setup CD. She has apparently been
23、 dozing and, having come to just as the sentence ended, was attempting to cover for her inattention.It quickly became clear that the woman was not a computer technician. Her job was to serve as a gatekeeper. Her only duty, as far as I could tell, was to raise global stress levels.To make me disappea
24、r, the woman gave me the phone number for Windows creator, Microsoft. This is like giving someone the phone number for, I dont know, North America. Besides, the CD worked; I just didnt have it. No matter how many times I repeated my story, we came back to the same place. She was calm and polite.When
25、 myvoicehit a certain decibel (分贝), I was passed along, like a hot, irritable potato, to a technician.You dont have the Windows Setup CD, maam, because you dont need it, he explained cheerfully.Windows came preinstalled on your computer!But I do need it.Yes, but you dont have it. We went on like thi
26、s for a while. Finally, he offered to walk me through the use of a different CD, one that would erase my entire system. Of course, youd lose all your e-mail, your documents, your photos. It was like offering to drop a safe on my head to cure my headache. You might be able to recover them, but it wou
27、ld be expensive. He sounded delighted. And its not covered by the warranty (产品保证书)! The safe began to seem like a good idea, provided it was full.I hung up the phone and drove my computer to a small, friendly repair place Id heard about. A smart, helpful man dug out a Windows CD and told me it would
28、nt be a problem. An hour later, he called to let me know it was ready. I thanked him, and we chatted about the weather, which was the same outside my window as it was outside his.56.

The 8-year-old has been coming to class in a different persona (人物) daily since the second day of second grade, when she showed up as American author Laura Ingalls Wilder. Stella gets ideas for what to wear fr
32、om the book 100 Most Important Women of the 20th Century. However, in the past she has also dressed up as fictional characters including Hermione Granger from Harry Potter. The eager student managed to get through the entire second grade without repeating herself, but now she is running out of ideas

Her mother told UK news website The Huffington Post, “She goes into her closet and just picks out what she wants each day.”Learning SoarsHow do you get a childs early education off the ground? A h
34、ead teacher in the Georgian city of Rustavi has found a unique way of creating an exciting learning environment. He has transformed a plane into a kindergarten. Gari Chapidze bought an old but functional Yakovlev Yak-42 from Georgian Airways and filled it with education equipment, games and toys, bu

Adam Woldemarim, 42, discovered $ 221,510 in the back of his van after a long day at work. The money was in a laptop ca
37、se left between the seats of the Virgin Valley cab. What did Woldemarim do with the cash? He turned it in. The Ethiopian driver soon got a call from the cases owner who, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, had “won big” and was on his way to the airport when he realized he had forgotten his w
38、innings. Woldemarim was given a $ 2,000 reward. But it was reported that the drivers fellow taxi drivers thought he should have got a lot more.Eat Crickets (蟋蟀) and Worms at a Museum The Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia is putting on a night for meat eaters who want to try some unusual fo

42、rgartenC. Las Vegas only brings luck for the poorD. all the girls love fancy clothes and costumesCThe Philippines is fast becoming the worlds low-cost English language teacher - with rapid increases in overseas students coming to learn English or study in English-speaking universities. There might b
43、e other countries that people think about as a classic place to learn English, such as the UK, the US or Australia. But there is one key reason that they are switching to the Philippines. Its much cheaper. We have very competitive rates compared with other countries, says English teacher, Jesy King,
44、 citing her schools fees of $500 (313) for a 60-hour class-about a third of the price of an equivalent course in the US or Canada.Another major advantage is the accent. Filipinos speak with a clear American accent - partly because the Philippines were a US colony for five decades, and partly because
45、 so many people here have spent time working in call centers for the US market. These centers train their staff to sound indistinguishable from Americans, so callers never realize that the person theyre speaking to is on the other side of the world.Student numbers are growing rapidly. And its not ju
46、st English language students who are coming to the Philippines - theres also been a rapid increase in the number of foreigners applying for graduate and post-graduate courses in all kinds of fields. The main reasons that attract them are, again, the cost - and the fact that, in the countrys top univ
47、ersities, all classes are held in English.Dr Alvin Culaba, the executive vice-president of De La Salle - one of the countrys top universities - is confident that the level of teaching in his institution can compete with that found anywhere in the world. Our programs are very comparable, or sometimes
48、 even better, than in the US and Europe, he says. De La Salle already has a lot of students from China and Japan, but theres recently been an increase in Europeans. Elizaveta Leghkaya, a Russian engineering student, is one of them. She looked at courses in Canada, Australia and New Zealand, but the
49、program at De La Salle was a quarter of the price of the others. Here its much cheaper, and Im really confident that the qualification Ill get is just the same, she says. She had found other benefits of studying in the Philippines too. Its a good experience, as its a different style of life than Id
50、get in Europe. Its interesting to learn the culture. But studying in the Philippines isnt for the faint-hearted. Living here means coping with the bureaucracy and corruption (官僚腐败), and if youre in Manila, the heavy pollution. And then theres the fact that many Filipinos speak a rather different lan
51、guage than the rest of the English-speaking world. The Philippines markets itself as being the third largest English-speaking nation - after the US and the UK - a fact proudly displayed on the Department of Tourism website. And in a way, thats true. Most people speak at least basic English, and the
52、well-educated speak it fluently. But a lot of people speak Taglish - a mix of English and the local language Tagalog - which is often difficult for foreigners to understand. For a foreign student trying to learn English, this will undoubtedly present some challenges.51.From the above passage we can
53、learn that _.A. the fact that the local people speak Taglish is an attraction to foreignersB. the education quality in Russia is far behind that of the PhilippinesC. not all the foreign students go to the Philippines to learn EnglishD. only students from China and Japan like to study in the Philippi
54、nes52.

De La Salle there is a very good university53.The method the writer uses t

ObjectiveC. CriticalD. DoubtfulDAs I write this, I have half an eye on an old James Bond film that is show
56、ing on my computer. But this is a story about how I stopped watching TV and began reading again for pleasure, after ten years in which I hardly turned a page.I suppose I was an enthusiastic reader of literature between the ages of nine and fourteen. I had enough time to be White Fang, Robinson Cruso
57、e, and Bilbo Baggins and Jeeves. Of course there was room in the schoolboys imagination for some real historical figures: Scott of the Antarctic, all of the Vikings, and Benjamin Franklin were good friends of mine.Then, in adolescence, I began a long search for strange and radical (激进的) ideas. I wan
58、ted to challenge my elders and betters, and shock my fellow students with amazing points of view. Of course, the only place to look was in books. I hunted out the longest titles and the authors with the funniest names; I searched the library for completely unread books. Then I found one which became
59、 my bible for the whole of 1982, it had a title composed of eleven long words and an author whose name I didnt know how to pronounce. It was really thick and looked dead serious. Even better, it put forward a whole world-view that would take days to explain. Perfect. I took it out of the library thr
60、ee times, proud to see the date-stamps lined up on the empty library insert.Later, I went to university. Expecting to spend long evenings in learned discussion with clever people, I started reading philosophy. For some reason I never found the deep-thinking intellectuals I hoped to meet. Anyway, I w
61、as ready to impress with my profound (深奥的) knowledge of post-structuralism, existentialism and situationism. These things are usually explained in rather short books, but they take a long time to get through. They were the end of my youthful reading.Working life was hard to get used to after so much
62、 theory. It was the end of books for me. There didnt seem to be much in books that would actually get things done. To do things you had to answer the telephone and work a computer. You had to travel about and speak to people who werent at all interested in philosophy. I didnt stop reading, you cant
63、avoid that. I read all day. But no books came my way, only manuals (操作手册) and contracts and documents. Maybe most people satisfy their need for stories and ideas with TV and, to tell the truth, it was all I needed for ten years. In those days I only had a book on the go for the duration of aeroplane
64、 flights. At first I would come home and watch TV over dinner. Then, I moved the TV so I could watch it from bed. I even got a switch so I could turn it off without getting out of bed. Then, one fateful day, my TV broke and my landlady took it away. My new TV is an extra circuit board (电路板) inside m
65、y computer. Its on a desk in front of a working chair and I cant see it from the bed. I still use it for the weather forecasts and its nice to have it on while Im typing this but what to do last thing at night? Well, have another go with books.Now, I just like books. I have a pile of nice ones by my
66、 bed and Im reading about six at the same time. I dont want to be any of the characters. I dont care if a thousand people have already read them. I dont have to search through libraries. There are books everywhere and all of them have something to read in them. I have the strange feeling that theyve
67、 been there all along, waiting for me to pick them up.55. The writer enjoyed reading “literature” between the ages of nine and fourteen because _.A. he thought it was important for a schoolboy to do soB. he was still too young to understand other booksC. he believed all the real historical figures w

The writer read in his adolescence to show off his unique viewpoints.C. How the writer finally found a

How the writer became a man with very strange and radical ideas.57.“Existentialism” (in paragraph 4) is probably _.A. a library intended for teenagersB. a kind of books on traditionsC. a philosophy theoryD. a kind of reading skill60.Which of the following is th
70、e best title of the passage?A. Ten Years without BooksB. Books and TV ProgramsC. Dont Judge a Book by Its CoverD. Reading Makes One Excellent四、任务型阅读One reason Americans eat so many calories is that we tend to eat large portions. Studies find that hamburgers and fries are generally offered in serving
71、 sizes two to five times larger than the appropriate meal size. Researchers find we usually clean our plates no matter how high theyre piled, even if we already feel satisfied. See the suggestions below to further master the fine art of sizing up(估量) your snacks and suppers.Extremely large portions
72、are one possible reason Americans continue getting fatter even as the percentage of our total calories from fat has gone down in recent years. Fortunately, portions are relatively simple to control because its easier to count cookies than calories or grams of fat.Pre-picture portions. Use familiar o
73、bjects to picture how much you should eat of a food before you pick up your fork or spoon. For example, a half cup of low-fat granola is about the size of your fist. A half cup of low-fat ice cream equals half an orange. Use a smaller dish. This tip might sound ridiculous, but it works. First and mo
74、st obvious is that you cant put as much food on, say, a salad plate. But psychologically, youre just not as prone to eat as heartily and quickly if your plate will be empty in 45 seconds. Have raw vegetables at every meal. Raw cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, and peppers have few calories and lots of n
75、utrients. A plate of them in the middle of the table almost always gets eaten up, cutting down appetite for the more calorie-dense meat. Start your meal with soup. Studies show that a bowl of soup at the start of the meal reduces overall meal consumption, since they are lowest in calories and highes
76、t in nutrients. Manage your fork. After every bite of food, put your fork down. Dont pick it up until you have thoroughly chewed and swallowed the previous bite. The goal is both to slow down your eating and to eat less. Remember: Your body needs 20 minutes of digestion before it sends signals to yo
77、ur brain that you are no longer hungry.Helpful hints on how to get a handle on the how-much factorFactsHamburgers and fries served in restaurants are generally two to five times the_of the proper ones.Americans usually clean their plates _high theyre piled, even if they are already satisfiedEffectsA

82、 in the picture, roses given, fragrance in hand, which means helping others is beneficial both to others and ourselves. Its a pity that people are becoming more and more indifferent to each other. We should help others because everyone needs help no matter what he does. If we lend a helping hand to
83、others, we will be offered help when we have difficulty. Whats more, we will feel happy because of our kindness. Thats to say, helping others is helping us and we can take pleasure in offering help, which contributes to building a harmonious society.Therefore, dont hesitate to help others. How can we help others? Personally, Im supposed to be concerned about those whore in trouble. I can work as a volunteer, a donator or even as a good listener. Sometimes a few encouraging words could make a difference.
