阅读理解。      Every student wants to learn English well, but how can we learn it well? It"s a good topic for English
learners. Here are some good methods, which can help you improve your English quickly.
     First of all, you must have correct attitude. Please love English, not hate it. And you don"t feel shy when
you say or speak English. Remember one sentence: Put your face in your pocket.
     Secondly, I think grammar rules, new words and phrases are important, but they are not enough. For
example, some people are quite good at grammar and learned a lot of English words and phrases. But they
can"t speak English when they meet foreign friends.
     The most effective (有效的) way to learn English well is to often use English. Don"t be afraid and don"t
laugh at others. We"d better listen, speak, read and write more. You can go to English corner, talk with
foreigners or talk with your friends. If you have time, listen to the radio or English program. Listening to this
good material can help you improve your listening and understanding. And then, you can read English books,
newspapers or novels. They are wonderful. You can use the internet, chat with net-friends or write E-mails,
dairies …Through these ways, you can get more for your English.
     English isn"t so difficult that we can"t learn it well. As long as we set our mind to learn English well, I"m
sure everyone will be successful. 1. The underlined sentence "Put your face in your pocket." suggests that _____. [     ]
A. you should love English

阅读理解。    Every year landslides (山崩) cause 25 to 50 deaths and $2 billion in damage in the United States. And in
December, a single event killed more than 2000 people in the Philippines. Sending workers to stabilize (加固)
mountainsides using steel bars (钢筋) can help a lot, but it introduces new difficulties because of dust and
loosen heavy, dangerous debris (岩屑) from the work. "It"s a quite dangerous job," says Giorgio Pezzuto of
D" Appolonia, working with eight other companies. Now there may be an answer: a three-ton robot called
Roboclimber.
    "The idea is to operate a machine far away that can do the stabilizing job without a human being near,"
says Pezzuto, manager for the project, which is supported by a European organization. Engineers say that
the machine will be faster and cheaper than manual labor (人工). The robot, a large radio-controlled four-
legged spider, has cost at least $2 million so far. It should be able to climb mountainsides, drill (钻) holes
and insert (插入) steel bars there. Testing should begin in May. 1. The underlined word "event" refers to _____. [     ]
A. earthquake
B. debris
C. dust
D. landslide 2. The purpose in writing this text is _____. [     ]
A. to tell people how serious the damage caused by landslides is
B. to tell people that sending workers to stabilize mountainsides is a dangerous job
C. to show people how to use a new robot
D. to introduce a new robot that can be used to stabilize mountainsides 3. What does the robot look like? [     ]
A. human being
B. spider
C. steel bar
D. a drill 4. The biggest advantage of this product is that _____. [     ]
A. it will be faster and cheaper than manual labor
B. it can climb mountainsides, drill holes and insert steel bars there
C. it can do the stabilizing job without human beings near
D. it is like a spider

阅读理解。    The classical study of family size and IQ was conducted in the Netherlands. It was based on the military
examinations of more than 386,000 Dutchmen. Researchers found that the brightest subjects came from the
smallest families and had few, if any, brothers and sisters when they were born. Thus the firstborn child in
a family of two was usually brighter than the last child in a family.
     The effects of family size on intelligence (智力) may be explained by what a house full of children does
to the home environment. It increases the amount of time a child spends with other children and decreases
the amount of parental attention he or she receives. For example, a parent with one restless child is likely to
sit and play with the child. The same parent with two or three restless children is more likely to ask them to
play with each other. Some psychologists say that when a child interacts (交往) with an adult alone, the child
learns more and therefore intelligence is increased. Researchers have also found that parents often expect more
from their first-born, which motivates (激发) such children to seek a higher standard.
     Not all psychologists agree that firstborns tend to be more intelligent. They say that the data need to be
examined more closely for other possible explanations. For example, in industrialized nations most large
families come from lower socio-economic backgrounds. Thus environment, not family size or birth order,
may be influencing intelligence. On the other hand, there may be genetic variations (基因突变) within families
that also explain the cause of differences.
     If firstborns have advantages in the area of intelligence, research has also shown that they may be more
conforming (墨守陈规) and have poorer social skills than their younger siblings (brothers and/or sisters).
Although more research needs to be done in this area, it is clear that such factors as birth order, the order in
which boys and girls are born into a family, the number of years that separate siblings probably have an effect
on the development of intelligence, personality, and social relationships. 1. The underlined word "subjects" in the 1st paragraph means _____. [     ]
A. branches of knowledge
B. persons chosen to be studied in experiments
C. citizens of a country
D. things talked about in a conversation, discussion or book 2. According to the research, usually the elder in a two-child family is _____. [     ]
A. cleverer than the younger
B. no cleverer than the younger
C. less clever than the younger
D. as clever as the younger 3. Why are firstborns encouraged to seek a higher standard? [     ]
A. They are more likely to obey others.
B. Their parents spend less time with other children.
C. They are more conforming.
D. Their parents expect more from them.. 4. The best title for this passage would be _____. [     ]
A. Family Size and IQ
B. Boys Cleverer Than Girls?
C. The Development of Intelligence
D. Factors Influencing IQ

阅读理解。                                                                  Blogs (博客)
     A "blogger" is a person who writes on an Internet website called a "blog". The word "blog" is a short way
of saying "web log", or "personal website". Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they
like.
     There are millions of blogs on the internet today. They provide news information and ideas to the people
who read them. They contain links to other websites, and they provide a place for people to write their ideas
and react to the ideas of others.
     A research company called Perseus has studied more than 3,000 web logs. It says that blogs are most
popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study
also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.
     However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. For example, the
Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs. And
American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.
     At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended. Last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed
his free blog service "weblogs. com". He said the site became too costly to continue. he started the blog four
years ago, and thousands of people had written on it. They are now upset because they did not know that the
site was closed.
     One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca"s Pocket. Rebecca Blood created the website in 1999.
She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called The Weblog Handbook. It
has been translated into four languages so far.
     Miss Blood says Rebecca"s Pocket gets about thirty thousand visitors a month. She writes about anything
and everything-politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how
to prevent being stolen from online bank accounts. 1. The text is mainly written to _____. [     ]
A. introduce an internet website called "blog".
B. introduce a short way of saying "web log"
C. tell readers about blogs.
D. tell readers how to write blogs 2. From the text we can learn that blogs cover almost everything except _____. [     ]
A. different ideas
B. medical advice
C. advertisements
D. account passwords 3. The reason why Rebecc"s Pocket is still going strong is that _____. [     ]
A. it was created by a woman
B. it is about the history of blogs
C. it provides useful information and advice
D. it has editions in at least four different languages

阅读理解。 Force other than damaging winds are also at work inside tornadoes (龙卷风). Sometimes, as the turning,
jumping funnel (漏斗) passes over a house, the walls and ceiling burst apart as if a bomb had gone off inside.
This explosion (爆炸) is caused by the low air pressure at the center of a tornado.   
    The pressure at the center of a tornado is usually 13 pounds per square inch. However, inside the house
the air pressure is normal, about 15 pounds per square inch. The difference of 2 pounds per square inch
between the inside and outside pressure may not seem like much. But suppose a tornado funnel passes over
a small building that measures 20 by 10 by 10 feet. On each square inch of the building, there is 2 pounds of
pressure from the inside that is not balanced by air pressure outside the building. On the ceiling, that adds up
to an unbalanced pressure of 57,600 pounds. The pressure on the four walls adds up to 172,800 pounds.   
    If windows are open in the building, some of the inside air will rush out through them. This will balance
the pressure inside and outside the building. But if the windows are shut tightly, the great inside pressure may
cause the building to burst.   
    Unfortunately, heavy rain happens in thunderstorms that later produce tornadoes. So, people often shut all
windows to protect their property. This may cause far worse damage later. 1. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?[     ]
A. Where tornadoes are formed.   
B. When tornadoes usually occur.   
C. How tornadoes can be prevented.   
D. Why tornadoes cause so much damage. 2. According to the passage, tornadoes can destroy building because the _____. [     ]
A. force of a tornado increases the air pressure in a building   
B. air pressure at the center of a tornado is over 172,000 pounds   
C. weight of a tornado can crush a building"s roof when it passes overhead   
D. air pressure inside a tornado is less than the air pressure inside a building 3. According to the passage, the pressure on a building during a tornado can be reduced by _____.[     ]
A. closing the windows      
B. opening the windows   
C. using an electric fan     
D. making the roof and walls stronger
