It is impossible to make no mistakes all one’s life. My grandpa Nybakken, a carpenter, is no 36 . Several decades ago he made a mistake –a（n） perfect mistake, 37 . On a cold Saturday, Mother’s father was building some wooden cases for the clothes his 38 was sending to an orphanage（孤儿院）in China. On his way home, he 39 into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His 40 proved fruitless. When he 41 replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the cases, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses, having 42 him $20 that very morning, were heading for China! He had to drive home 43 . Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, 44 Grandpa and his family also attended. “But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the 45 you sent last year.

A number of studies suggest that unstructured（无条理的）play can help children become creative, discover their own interests, develop problem-solving abilities, and relate to others socially, according to a report prepared by two academy committees for release Monday at the group’s annual meeting. On the contrary, a lack of such playtime can create stress for both children and parents, and it can also cause obesity（肥胖）when children spend too much time sitting in front of educational videos. The report notes lack of playtime could even lead to depression in many children. The report thinks the lack of playtime lies in the fact that parents want to have super-smart children and safe places for children to play is decreasing. A balance between free playtime and educational activities should be struck, the report states. “In the current environment, where so many parents feel pressure to be super parents, I believe this message is an important one,” said Dr. Kenneth Ginsburg, the report’s lead author and a pediatrician（小儿科医师）at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Noted pediatrician, author, and presenter of cable TV’s “What Every Baby Knows,” Dr. T. Betty Brazelton agreed. “Children with structured activities” are missing the chance to dream, to make their own world work the way they want it. That to me is a very important part of childhood. 56. From the passage we can see that today’s children really need more . A. enrichment activities B. conventional playtime C. structured activities D. educational activities 57. Which of the following is a proper word to describe today’s children? 第 15 页 共 22 页 A. Dull. B. Busy. C. Happy. D. Free. 58. According to the report, the balance between _ is important for a child. A. structured activities and unstructured activities B. educational videos and recess time C. fee playtime and traditional playtime D. enrichment activities and social activities 59. Dr. T. Berry Brazelton mainly emphasizes in the last paragraph. A. children’s ability to dream B. the roles of structured activities C. the important activities in his childhood D. the harm of too many structured activities 60. It can be inferred from the passage that . A. children given a lot of unstructured activities can be more creative B. get-smart videos and enrichment can create super children C. there is a competition among parents to be super parents D. child obesity is mainly caused by lack of playtime B "China is expected to complete its first exploration of the moon in 2010 and will found a moon base just as we did on the North and South Poles.” Ouyang Ziyuan, head of China’s moon exploration program, promised during the country's national science and technology week. After its first man in space, China plans a space laboratory, a lunar orbiter to look for valuable elements and minerals, robot landings on the moon and then the human touchdown. The price of space exploration is enormous. Russia and the US, the only two countries to have achieved manned flight, are struggling to keep their new investment, the international space station. But China, which has a long tradition in physics, mathematics and engineering, finds its doctoral graduates welcomed in the US and Europe for decades. And it has been able to learn from 40 years of pioneering successes and mistakes by the USSR and the USA. Space flight is a gamble and the stakes（赌注）are high. If successful, China could become a member of the world's most exclusive club, set up a second home on the moon and get a powerful 第 16 页 共 22 页 hand at the strategic bargaining table. Two designers from the Shenzhou III project said that 12 astronauts now are undergoing intensive training. One more unmanned space flight is planned before the first manned launch. Experts say that the Shenzhou spacecraft already provides China with a space vehicle capable of mounting a lunar program.

When you listen, they can make you happy or sad, peaceful or angry. They can make you relax or want to get up and dance. Gifted singers have the power to affect us in many ways — emotionally, physically and mentally. But becoming a great singer isn’t as easy as listening to one. It takes practice, devotion and strong lungs! Just ask the well-known American opera（歌剧）star Carol Vaness. At the Metropolitan Opera in New York City where she often sings, Carol’s voice must be loud enough to be heard by four thousand people. It must reach every person in the theater, without a microphone, even when she’s singing softly. The reason Carol can project her voice that far is the way she breathes. “When you breathe, it’s like a swimmer taking a deep breath before going underwater,” Carol explains. “You have to take a lot of air into your lungs.” According to Carol, the main difference between pop singing and opera is “how you breathe, how much air you take in, and how you control it coming out. Regular singing is more like speaking, and it’s a lot softer. When I sing for children, they’re often surprised by how the vibrations strike their ears — like waves on a beach, ” Carol says. “In opera, the air doesn’t just go out of your mouth — it vibrates in your chest, the way a guitar vibrates when it’s played. ” Ever since she started piano lessons at the age of ten, Carol has loved music. As she got older, she decided to become a music teacher. When she went to college, she took singing lessons as part of her studies. Her voice teacher discovered that nineteen-year-old Carol had an exceptionally beautiful soprano voice – the highest singing voice for women. Carol decided to make opera her goal, not only because she loved to sing but also because she loved the drama. Opera is a play in which the characters sing the words instead of speaking them. The stories of opera can be tragic or comical. They can be personal stories about two people falling in love or grand stories about kings and queens who lived long ago. As the characters in an opera sing, the emotions（情感）expressed by words and music come to life. Today, Carol performs throughout the United States and Europe and she has song for almost twenty years. But she has never forgotten where she started singing in the first palace. “Put your heart into your singing and enjoy it,” says Carol, “because singing is a great joy. That’s why I sing. In fact, that’s why everybody sings. ” 66. According to the passage, the Metropolitan Opera in New York City _____. 第 18 页 共 22 页 A. is a five-story building B. can seat 4,000 people C. has no microphone in it D. can project the singer’s voice 67.

This can include TVs, cell phones and computers and other office electronics, electronic toys and videos machines. Today, the average turnover（更换）rate for a computer in the United States is every two years, according to the environmental group, Greenpeace. The group's Dai Yun says e-waste is a global problem. "The electronic industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. The high speed of growth in this industry means more and more electronic products are being wasted and thrown away. If no one decides to retrieve the old products and process them properly, the electronic waste will sweep over the earth like the huge wave behind me and pollute the Earth seriously. " Greenpeace works out that 20 to 50 million tons of e-waste are produced globally each year. The components （ 部 件 ） in many electronic products contain harmful chemicals that pollute 第 19 页 共 22 页 ground water and the environment. At present, the U. S. has no federal law for the disposal （处理）of e-waste although a few states have e-waste recycling programs in place, but there is no law. The U. S. exports much of its e-waste to third world countries, such as India and China, where workers took apart computers for valuable parts, hoping to sell them for money. But harmful wastes expert, Dr. Bakul Rao, says that's a dangerous practice. "From now on, the recyclers are not very educated. All they know is they can retrieve copper or gold out of it. So, the easiest way to do that is leach （过滤）it out in an acid or burn it off to retrieve it. So, that's where they don't know how to deal with it, neither do they have any health systems in place. So, their exposure is more. " 71. Which of the following is most likely not to be a form of e-waste? A. A mobile phone B. A radio C. An e-bike D. A table 72.

The way uneducated workers deal with old computers does great harm to the environment as well as to their own health. D. More and more electronic waste is being wasted and thrown away mainly because of people's bad habits. 74. What is the purpose of writing the passage? A. To attract more people's attention to e-waste. B. To call on people not to throw away e-waste anywhere. C. To tell people what e-waste is and how to deal with it well. D. To warn people to break away from the electronic industry. 75.

The Remote XT system uses software to link customers’ mobile phones directly to a secure remote server, which stores all their data from phone numbers to text messages and e-mails. If the owner’s phone is lost or stolen, they can dial a 24-hour call centre and have it registered. The handset is then disabled, and cannot even be used if a new SIM card is put in. At the same time, the system sets off an alarm sounding like a high-pitched（尖声的）scream, which can only be stopped by removing the battery. Existing data is also wiped off the phone but, because the information has been stored centrally, as soon as the victim gets a news phone, the system designers said. “By making mobiles unusable to anyone but the rightful owner the phones become worthless and we will see the market for stolen handsets stopped once and for all,” said Mark Whiteman, managing director of Remote XT. For the moment the system is aimed at business customers and comes with a fee of 9.99 pounds per month, possibly available to the majority of average users within two years as mobile technology advances. According to the latest UK government statistics, mobile phone theft has risen 190 percent in recent years, with one third of all UK robberies now solely involving mobile phones. 76.
