New train route opens from China to Germany
A container(集装箱) train left Beijing on Wednesday on its way to Hamburg, Germany. The new service was welcomed as real progress made in international rail cooperation.
The train will travel about 9,800 kilometers through six countries, including China, Mongolia, Russia, Belarus, Poland and Germany. The trip has gained support from those in customs declaration and clearance.
Zhang Mingli, chairman of China Conainer Transportation Co., said, “This can be seen as a breakthrough in our cooperation. Today , railway officials from six countries are here to witness this event. This is very important to the development of the Asia-Europe Continental Bridge. This means of transportation has great potential for the countries involved.”
Cargo on board includes electronic products, textiles and shoes. The trip to Hamburg, Germany will take 18 days. The same trip would take at least 40 days by container ship.
Tomasl Palaszewski, vice president of Polish Natiional Railway, said, “There is big potential for container transportation to Europe. The ceremony today  shows that it will bring big benefits to all of us. So we hope that it will not only be a pilot train, but a permanent connection between China and Europe.”
Railway officials from the six countries will discuss detailed measures to advance container transportation.
Experts expect that the new land route will take a big slice of the pie of Chinese-EU trade. But improvements in Chinese railway networks will still matter. China has plans to invest huge amounts of money to build up 18 railway container terminals in the coming five years.

A. tell us about a new train route from China to Germany

This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience．It happened about three years ago and it has had a 36 effect on me．I would like to show respect here for the two men I do not know 37 but whose actions gave a new 38 to the words — kind and generous.
I was walking down a busy street on a cold, windy day in early 39 , A homeless man, probably about 60 and without wearing any shoes , was 40 for change on a street corner.

Two men of about the same age 51 very different lives had met and the one who was 52 in materials had offered 53 than his shoes．He had left this BMW car and 54 down from his high position．He lifted up the other man when he offered respect, 55 and real generosity.

When Christina Brouder was five years old, a drunk driver ran over her as she and her father were crossing the street in front of their home．Hurt badly, the young girl was forced to spend a long time in a full-body cast（石膏） to recover from her injuries．Mostly, she traveled between the hospital and her home．Once out of the cast, Brouder sat in a wheelchair for almost a year.
In spite of the horrible accident, Christina was grateful for her recovery．She was so grateful, in fact, that she and her four talented siblings（兄弟姐妹）（ three sisters and a brother） started a music group, Gilbride．The group performed at local hospitals and nursing homes, performing for the patients．Among them, the children could sing, dance and play about 20 different musical instruments．At their first show in 1988, held at Montefiore Hospital, the kids were 2,3,6,8 and 9 years old．That year alone, the group made over a hundred appearances．
From the local public entertainment places, the group expanded to charity performances．They also entertained people at Disney World, Radio City Music Hall, and even the White House．
Christina balanced her happy and successful musical career with academics．First graduating from New York City’s High School of Music and Art，and then from Fordham．In 2000，as t he youngest graduate from Fordham，1 8一year—old Christina and her siblings went on tour for a year．Not pleased with the applause she received from the audience, she entered Pace University Law School．On May 19，Christina Brouder realized part of her dream when at only 22，she received Health Law Certificate（文凭）．
小题1:What happened to Christina when she was five years old?| A．She was coldly deserted by her father． | | B．She got a strange and serious disease． | | C．She had to give performances to make a living． | | D．She was seriously injured in a traffic accident． |

Although Thomas Edison created the technologies behind three major 21st century industries electrical power，recorded music and movies—his greatest invention may have been the modern method of inventing．He basically came up with the modern system of research and development．Edison was not the only scientist doing research in his garage but someone who gathered around him a team of creative scientific minds．Edison’s 1aboratories were the forerunners（先驱）of Apple，Google and Microsoft．
Yet for a11 his scientific gifts，he was no Steve Jobs or Bill Gates．He once said，“Anything that won’ t sell，I don’ t want to invent．” But Edison，unlike Jobs or Gates，had no real sense of what the public wanted or how to change his discoveries into products that might sell．It took him years to understand that the phonograph（留声机）was not a business tool but an entertainment invention．He helped create movies but resisted the idea that people might want to go into a theater to watch one．
We chose Edison this year because we need his example now more than ever．Though we live in a time of great reformation，the U．S．is in danger of losing its advantage in science and technology．American investment（投资）in research and development has not increased as a percentage of GDP since the mid一1980s，while the government’ s share has been dropping．And this is at a time when China is rapidly increasing its money on research and development．The U．S．was once among the 1eading nations．Now it ranks near the bottom of the 23 nations that collect such data．We hope that Edison’ s story might not only encourage reformation but also inspire more
young Americans to study science and engineering．
小题1:The first paragraph is mainly about .| A．the number of Edison’ s great inventions | | B．Edison’ s special personal characters | | C．Edi son’ s modern system of research | | D．Apple．Google and Microsoft and their forerunners |

小题3:The author’ s main purpose is to ．| A．inform US of the danger the USA is in | | B．get young Americans to study science | | C．be in honor of Edison for his contributions | | D．tell US how important Edison’ s inventions are |
小题4:We can infer from the text that ．| A．the USA is no 10nger advanced in science and technology | | B．the USA falls behind China in research and inventions | | C．more and more young Americans will be interested in science | | D．China is spending more and more money on research and development |

His little log house had a single door. Directly 45 was a window. The window was boarded up（堵住）. No one could remember a(n) 46 when it was not. And no one knew why it had been 47 . I imagine there are few people living today who ever knew the 48 of that window. But I am one, as you shall 49 .
The man"s name was said to be Murlock. He 50 to be seventy years old, but he was really fifty. Something other than years had been the 51 of his aging.
His hair and long, full beard were white. His gray, 52 eyes were sunken. His face was wrinkled. He was tall and thin with drooping shoulders—like someone with many 53 .
I never saw him. These 54 I learned from my grandfather. He told me the man"s story 55 I was a boy. He had known him when living nearby in that early day.
