Mothers Day is a day set
aside to honour mothers. It is observed in the U.S. on the second Sunday in
May. The idea for the day is generally thought to be put forward by Anna M.
Jarves, whose mother died on May 9, 1905. In the years that followed she held
services and encouraged other sons and daughters to remember their mothers in a
similar way. She wrote thousands of letters to great persons, and in 1913 both
her home state of Pennsylvania and the U.S. Congress (国会) agreed to the idea of a special
day to honour mothers. International Mother’s Day was celebrated on May 11.

K. Smith
says; Apart from classroom lecture and textbooks, I read The World of English
on my own and am glad to say that I am getting more help from the magazine than
from the teacher, who tries to explain Chinese lessons Partly in English and
partly in offhand (即席的)
Chinese. When I get the World of English to teach me Chinese, I find the
learning easier with Chinese texts paralleled (对照的),
word for word, phrase for phrase, sentence for sentence, with the English
original (原文)
. The Chinese translation is of course intended to help Chinese learners of
English. But I turn it around using the English original as a means to an end
----my own aim of studying the Chinese language. I am pleased with my
experience and introduce this method of studying Chinese to other foreign
students at other Chinese universities in Beijing, especially the Beijing
Languages Institute where foreign students of the Chinese language are massed.
I think they should use The Word of English as their textbook ----for the study
of Chinese, if they haven’t already done so.
60. K. Smith is, probably_________ .

Frenchman who studies Chinese in China

English_________ .

to go over his Chinese
D.by
regarding it as necessary to his study of Chinese
62. K. Smith finds The World of English__________ .
A.easier
for the Chinese and foreign students to read
B.a good
and fit book for all kinds of students

Efforts by two east
African countries to get more children into school have been backed by the UK
government with £87million worth of funding.
The Department for
International Development (DFID) announced last week that it would give £85
million to the Tanzanian government to support the countrys poverty reduction
strategy, which focuses on education and health. The move follows a 45% rise in
the number of children attending school since 2001, when school fees were
abolished.
The DFID said around
95% of children aged between seven and 13 are now enrolled in school. The
number of teachers has risen by a quarter and the number of schools has
increased by a fifth in the past five years. Among the challenges for the
Tanzanian government now, is to ensure that children receive a good standard of
education.
A further £2 million will be given to neighbouring Burundi to help
build more classrooms and pay for more teachers.
Class sizes swelled this term as an extra 500,000 children
enrolled in school following the abolition of primary school fees by the
countrys newly elected government, which is expected to restore democracy to
the war-ravaged(战争毁坏的) country.
According to the DFID, there are 150 pupils to a class in some
areas of the country and the Burundi government estimates that enrolment rates
could double in the next school year.
The £2 million will
support the Back to School programme, operated in Burundi by the United
Nations childrens fund, Unicef, which aims to build 100 temporary classrooms,
provide 500 schools and provide water the sanitation facilities. Fast-track
training will also be made available for up to 3,000 unqualified teachers and
for 1,000 former teachers returning to education.
The money is expected to help bring both countries a small step
closer to meeting the UNs eight Millennium Development Goals, which were set
in 2000 to eradicate（根除） poverty and improve
access to education and healthcare by 2015.
64. Which of the following
is the same case in both Tanzania and Burundi?
A. They both suffered the ravages of the war.
B. They will get the same amount of money from DFID.
C. They both abolished primary school fees.
D. They both need to train unqualified teachers
65. What does the underlined word “swelled” mean
in the passage?
A. remained B. expanded C.
doubled D. changed
66. Which of the following can be inferred from
the passage?
A. The situation in Tanzania is no better than that in Burundi.
B. The Back to School programme is only operated in Burundi.
C. The Tanzanian
government is sure that children receive a good standard of education.
D. Previously many teachers turned to the occupations other than
education in Burundi.
67. The main idea of this passage is ______.
A. Tanzania and Burundi are taking efforts to improve access to
education.
B. Tanzania and Burundi are desperate for money to support their
education.
C. The UK government
are providing funds to help African children back to school.
D.A countrys poverty reduction strategy should be focused on
education first.
A SIMPLE eye test could
predict who is likely to have a stroke in the next seven years.
A study of
more than 3600 people over the age of 50 found those with a condition called
retinopathy(视网膜病)were three times more likely to suffer a
stroke, even if they displayed no other risk factors.
Paul Mitchell, director of
the Centre for Vision Research at Westmead Millennium Institute, said about 10
per cent of people over 50 had retinopathy, diagnosed by taking high-resolution（高分辨）
photographs of the retina.
This test is a marker
for stroke even for people who dont have other stroke risk factors like high
blood pressure. Usually about 2 per cent of people above the age of 50 will
have a stroke, but we found about 5 to 6 per cent of people who had retinopathy had a stroke within six or seven
years.
Professor Mitchell said
damage to the retina indicated vascular（血管） problems.
The eye and the brain
circulation are essentially identical, so by taking an image of the retina we
are seeing a snapshot（快照） of what might be happening in the brain. He said the images
would have to be taken by an eye specialist, rather than a GP.
Stroke is the third-largest
cause of death in Australia after heart disease and cancer.
National Stroke Foundation
chief executive Erin Lalor said: About 48,000 people a year have a
stroke, and within a year of having a stroke about a third of the people will
die, about a third will make a complete recovery and about a third of the
people will have some disability.
Professor Mitchell said
further research involving 2000 stroke patients in Sydney and Melbourne had
begun to determine whether retinopathy was a predictor of certain types of
stroke.
We are now continuing
to work to explore the relevance（有关性质） of this work and to see how
it can play a specific practical role in the future, he said.
Were recruiting about
2000 people in Sydney and Melbourne who have had a stroke to look at how common
these retinal signs are, and whether they are helpful in predicting the type of
stroke.
68. We can infer from the text
that “a GP” is a person who __________.
A. has a specific medical skill
B. can treat all illnesses
C. knows how to take photos
D. carries out the research
69. What is the main idea of the
text?
A. Eye test can predict future
stroke victims.
B. Eyes should be tested
regularly to prevent stroke.
C. Stroke is the third-largest
cause of death in Australia.
D. We can prevent stroke in the
future.
70.According
to the text, both retinopathy and high blood
pressure ______.
A. can cause stroke
B. are stroke markers
C. are diagnosed by taking
high-resolution photographs
D. are included in the study
71. According to the text, which
of the following haven’t yet been discovered?
A. Retinopathy suggests vascular problems.
B. In fact, the eye and the
brain circulation are the same.
C. Retinopathy is a predictor of
certain types of stroke.
D.About 16,000 people will die of stroke.
Whats your idea of a good
time? What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and fifty thousand
other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants?
It may sound strange but that
is what many hundreds of thousands of young people in the UK do every summer.
Why? Because summer is the time for outdoor
music festivals.
Held on a farm, the
Glastonbury Festival is the most well-known and popular in the UK. It began in
1970 and was attended by one thousand five hundred people each paying an admission price of £1 - the ticket
included free milk from the farm.
Since then the Glastonbury
Festival has gone from strength to
strength - in 2004 one hundred and fifty thousand fans attended, paying £112 for tickets
to the three-day event. Tickets
for the event sold out within
three hours. Acts included veteran superstars, such as Paul
McCartney and James Brown, as well as new
talent, like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone.
Although many summer
festivals are run on a profit-making
basis, Glastonbury is a charity
event, donating millions of pounds to local and international charities.
Glastonbury is not unique in
using live music to raise money
for global poverty. In July of
this year, the Live 8 concerts were held simultaneously(同时) in London, Paris, Rome and Berlin. Superstars, such as Madonna,
Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder performed
in order to highlight international poverty and debt.
72.What does the author mean by “the Glastonbury
Festival has gone from strength to
strength”?
A. The festival has achieved continuing
and growing success
B. It has taken great efforts to hold the festival.
C. The festival has brought in a large amount of money.
D. There have been thousands of fans attending the festival.
73. Which of the
following is right based on the passage?
A. The Glastonbury Festival is run on a profit-making basis.
B. In the 1970 Glastonbury Festival, one could get milk from the farm
without paying.
C. Both James Brown and Joss Stone are skilled and experienced
superstars.
D. In the 2004 Glastonbury Festival, the tickets were in great demand
despite the high price.
74. “ The Live 8” is
the name of ______.
A. a band B. a
festival C. a place D. a series of
concerts
75. What is the best
title of the passage?
A. An idea to have a good time B. Charity events around the world
C. UK summer music festivals D. Superstars’ performances in the charity
events
