NEW YORK--Hundreds of thousands of spectators（观众） lined the streets of Manhattan, New York

Manhattan midtown into a world of balloons and floats Thursday．

balloons, 25 groups of clowns（小丑） and 10 marching bands made their way down
Broadway for the annual parade．
Sponge Bob Square Pants was
one of three new balloons．Chicken Little
and Red and Yellow M & Ms made their debut (首次露面), but the parade also included old favorites like
Charlie Brown and Barney．
Mayor Michael Bloomberg
joined adults and children at the festivities, and took time to stop by a 911
center to visit workers there． He said he was
grateful for people throughout the city who were working on the holiday．
Im thankful the city
is doing well, and we have to make sure all of our services continue to work,
especially our emergency services, he said．
Weve been able to
avoid terrorism; weve been able to bring crime down; weve been able to bring
jobs back, and build housing; schools are getting better, and I just hope we

city, and one of the top terrorist targets．The parade

“The pen is more powerful than the sword（刀）．” There have
been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong．Mrs
Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them．
She was born in the U．S．A．in
1811．One of her books not only made her famous but has
been described as one that excited the world, and was helpful in causing a
civil war and freeing the enslaved race．The civil war
was the American Civil War of 1861, in which the Northern States fought the
Southern States and finally won．
This book that shook the world was called Uncle
Toms Cabin．There was time when every English-speaking
man, woman, and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery． Not
many people read it today, but it is still very interesting．The
book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse (唤起) peoples sympathies．The
author herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave．The
Southern Americans were very angry at the book, which they said did not at all
represent true state of affairs, but the Northern Americans were wildly excited
over it and were so inspired by it that they were ready to go to war to set the
slaves free．
49．According to the
passage______．
A．every
English-speaking person has read Uncle Toms Cabin

Cabin was not very interesting

speak English cannot have read Uncle Toms Cabin

Toms Cabin did a great deal in the American Civil War

living in the north of America before the American Civil War broke out．
B．She herself
encouraged the Northern Americans to go to war to set the slaves free．
C．She was better as writing as swinging (挥舞) a sword．
D．She had once
been a slave．
51．Why could Mrs
Harriet Beecher Stowes book cause a civil war in America?
A．She wrote so
well that Americans loved her very much．
B．She disclosed
the terrible wrongs that had been done to the slaves in the Southern States．
C．The Southern
Americans hated the book while the Northern Americans like it．
D．The book had
been read by many Americans．
52．What can we
learn from the passage?
A．We neednt use
weapons (武器) to
fight things that are wrong．
B．A writer is more
helpful in a war than a soldier．
C．We must
understand the importance of literature and art．
D．No war can be
won without such a book as Uncle Toms Cabin．
D
Started in 1636, Harvard
University is the oldest of many colleges and universities in the United States．Yale,
Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were all started before the American
Revolution made the thirteen colonies(殖民地)into states．
In the early years, these schools
were much alike．Only young men attended colleges．All
the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and
Hebrew．Little was known about science then, and
one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world．When
the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers．
In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who
wanted to become doctors．Later, lawyers
could receive their training in Harvard’s law school．In
1852,Havard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German, as well
as Latin and Greek．Soon it began teaching American history．
As knowledge increased, Harvard and other
colleges began to teach many new subjects．Students were
allowed to choose the subjects that interested them．
Special colleges for women were started．New
state universities began to teach such subjects as farming, engineering and
business．Today, there are many different kinds of
colleges and universities．Most of them are
divided into smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning．There
is so much to learn that one kind of school cannot offer it all．
53．Yale, Princeton,
Columbia and Dartmouth were the names of the ____in America．
A．states
B．cities
C．universities D．colonies
54．The passage
doesn’t say so, but it makes us think that ____．
A．colleges and universities have changed
greatly over the years
B．American young men are much luckier than
young women
C．new subjects have already taken the place
of the old ones
D．Harvard University is now less important
55．As knowledge
increased, colleges began to teach____．
A．everything that was known
B．many
new subjects
C．French and German
D．farming
56．The title of
this passage would be____．
A．Famous Harvard University
B．American
Universities
C．The Changing of American Universities D．The American Revolution
E
Indonesia’s coral reefs (珊瑚礁)are in trouble．Coral mining, industrial pollution
and poisonous agricultural run off all play a role in their destruction, but
the fishermen have been the worst offenders．They not only bomb fish but also poison them with cyanide, an
equally destructive practice．The fishermen are also among the biggest potential victims (受害者)．Two thirds of Indonesia’ s 7,000 coastal villages are close to coral
reefs and thus depend for their livelihood on the harvest of reef fish．The disappearing reefs are already
leading to a dramatic decline in the productivity of coastal fisheries and to
increasing fights among fishermen．
Indonesia’s reefs are vast —— they cover
51,000 square kilometers, surround 17,500 islands and stretch 3,500 kilometers
——but they are not infinite．Many foreign experts and Indonesians fear that the region’s entire
marine environment could be seriously damaged if the reefs keep dying at their
present rate．“The overall
picture is depressing, says Ian Dutton, Indonesian director of an environmental
group Depressing, but not hopeless．
Despite the destruction, environmentalists
have in recent years made significant progress in changing the hearts and minds
of the fishermen．Working
closely with local Indonesian authorities in North Sulawesi and less populated
eastern Indonesia, where most of the country’ s reefs are located, they have
succeeded in preventing destructive: fishing practices and coral mining from
overwhelming the reefs．
Increasing numbers of fishermen are waking up to the threat
and protecting the life -- sustaining coral before it’s too late．Nuhung,
a 56-year-old fisherman, says, “I always knew blast fishing was harmful．Then
I suddenly realized that by bombing the reefs I was destroying not only my own
but my children’s future．”
57．In the text the author_____．
A．presents us some
facts and people’s opinions as well
B．shows that he’s
worried about the situation, but still feels a little hopeful
C．says he’s delighted
and meanwhile, depressed
D．disagrees with
what’s being done and gives suggestions
58．The underlined word “infinite” in
the 2nd paragraph most probably means_____．
A．incomplete B．short
C．unfit
D．limitless
59．Which of the following is NOT TRUE
according to the text?
A．But for the
fishermen’s protection, the reefs would disappear soon．
B．More and more
fishermen have realized their mistakes．
C．Without the coral
reefs, the fishermen would have nothing for their livelihood
D．Some practical
measures have been taken to stop the situation worsening．
60．The fishermen are named “worst
offenders” because
A．they defend their
rights of mining the coral reefs too eagerly
B．they wake up too
late to realize the terrible situation
C．they use the
fishing ways, which destroy the coral reefs
D．they pretend to
follow the government’s rules

According to a recent survey, about 25 percent of college
students have a part-time job．During summer vacation, this figure will increase
to 72 percent．College students are working as tutors,
waiters or salesmen．
Why do they want part-time jobs？First，they want to earn money to help cover the
increasingly higher college tuition．Second, they
hope to be economically independent and buy whatever they want．
In my opinion, by doing part-time jobs,
college students can gain some society experience and broaden their outlook．What’s
more, part-time jobs can provide them with a valuable chance/opportunity to
know the outside world．So it’s of great significance for college
students to do part-time jobs．
