publish her first ever novel for adults, which is set to become one of the most anticipated (期望的)
book in years.
The deal means that Rowling’s long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based
publisher that launched (发行) the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at 1east in terms of
new works by the author.
Rowling is keeping her fans guessing about the characters and plot of her new book. She only
said that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which was sold over 30 million
copies in the UK alone. She thought that with the move from children’s to adult fiction, a switch to
a new publisher seemed like a natural and reasonable step.
She said,“Although I’ve enjoyed writing it every bit as much, this book will be very different from
the Harry Potter series. The freedom to explore a new field is a gift that Harry’s success has
brought me.”
Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set
in the city, suggested Rowling’s book will be a crime novel.
“Wouldn’t it be funny if JK Rowling’s first novel for adults turned out to be a crime story set
in Edinburgh?”he said.
Industry insiders guessed that the deal is worth more than ￡5 million and the new book is
expected to come out later this year.
A spokesman said, “JK Rowling’s audience is vast and her position is unique. Harry Potter
books were a global success and her fans are very loyal. Children that were eight, nine, or ten
when the books first came out in the 1990s are now in their 20s. Plenty of adults, loved the books
regardless of whether they had children, so the potential market for her is huge.”
B. JK Rowling’s new book will be more successful than her Harry Potter series.
C. JK Rowling has to switch to a new publisher in order to publish her new book.
D. JK Rowling’s first book for adults will be published later this year.
B. is poorly thought of by the London-based publisher Bloomsbury
C. has nothing in common with the Harry Potter series
D. is expected to bring her more money than the Harry Potter series
B. show that many readers are curious about Rowling’s new book
C. tell us that many readers prefer to read detective or crime novels
D. prove that a crime story set in Edinburgh is sure to be successful
B. the author has no doubt about
the success of Rowling’s new bookC. JK Rowling will be a crime novelist as good as Ian Rankin
D. it was in Edinburgh that Ian Rankin got to know JK Rowling
B. children won’t have any interest in JK Rowling’s new book
C. Rowling’s vast audience and unique position will guarantee the new book’s succcss
D. only readers of Harry Potter series will be interested in Rowling’ s new book
secretly. The makers of the movie Pearl Harbor have behaved differently.
The noise about Pearl Harbor,made by Disney,has reached its highest point with its premiere (首次
公演) before the movie opens in cinemas across the US at the start of the Memorial Day holiday
weekend,a time to recall national heroes who sacrificed their lives on the battlefield.
As Ben Affleck is the main star,the movie seems sure to become a success in the United States at
least.
At almost three hours in length,it promises to be a good old Hollywood movie．There is a love story．Affleck and his co－star,Josh Hartnett,both fall in love with the navy nurse,Kate Beckinsale and,of course,there is much human courage and love of country.
It"s certain that Disney will be accused of "changing" history．The showing of actual events in a movie
always causes arguments.
Bits of the story are deliberately not mentioned in the movie．It does not address the theory held by
some historians that President Franklin Roosevelt knew about Japan"s intention to attack the ships in
Pearl Harbor．It is said he did nothing,as he was aware that such a blow would allow him to take
America into the Second World War.
Japan remains sensitive about being accused of wartime atrocities (暴行)．And Disney is sensitive
about its business in Japan,where it has a theme park.
Not all the reviews of the movie have been full of praise．A reviewer for Newsweek,who was given
an early preview,acknowledged that the 40－minute sequence (连续镜头) showing the attack itself was
powerful．The attack comes quite late in the movie,however,and the reviewer was less impressed with
the characters and the love story.
"Almost every line of the dialogue sounds like it comes from an old movie," the reviewer wrote.
B. the day people remember their ancestors
C. a day people celebrate the victories of World War ?
D. a day people remember those who died in wars
B. may be a very popular movie star
C. experienced the Pearl Harbor Incident
D. was in love with the actress Kate Beckinsale
B. The movie has made the Japanese angry.
C. The movie truly describes the Pearl Harbor Incident.
D. The movie shows that President Roosevelt knew about Japan"s intention.
B. The dialogue in the movie is original and creative.
C. The attack scenes occupy too much time of the movie.
D. The characters and the love story are less attractive.
B. The True Fact of Pearl Harbor.
C. Attention!Pearl Harbor is arriving.
D. Reviewer:Pearl Harbor is a success.
differences between American youth and French youth.
The first difference is in appearance. Going around in the U.S., I found that American youth do not
really care about their appearance. In the morning, they choose something in their closet and wear it with
another thing, often of different colors and styles, without wondering whether their choices make them
look strange. The reason behind this is that they don"t care what people look like, but are just interested
in their ideas. I think it"s great, but it also causes problems. Since they don"t care about their appearance,
they don"t really care about their weight. Often they get fat without realizing it.
There are differences in relationships too. When the American youth fall in love, they don"t really think
of the future. Also, there are differences in the rules concerning behavior that is allowed. In some respects, the French are more accepting. For example, in America it is generally unacceptable to make physical
display of love. Lovers, actually, can"t kiss or hold each other everywhere they want. People think that not showing love in public places is a way to respect others. On the contrary, the French youth can do almost everything they want.
As for other types of relationships, there are also big differences. Americans act differently from
French people in front of unknown people. When an American girl, for example, arrives in front of people she has never met before, she will talk with them, trying to create a kind of tie between her and this new
circle of people. The French girls will just think about rather than really do this kind of thing because they
are too shy and lacking in self-confidence.
To finish, I noticed that in American classes, when pupils want to say or ask something, they just do it. In general, they don"t really care how the others will judge them. In France, it"s not the same cas
e. If somebody wants to ask something, he/she will think about it before speaking up. I appreciate the freedom in Americans" behavior, ideas, and ways of expressing themselves.B. aspects
C. honors
D. means
B. will rarely display their love in public
C. will always think about their future

B. their public images

are controlled for many reasons, primarily to maintain reliable water supplies for daily, agricultural and
industrial needs, for power generation, for navigation (航行), and to prevent flooding.
River control is achieved by channelization, a term that covers a range of river engineering works, including
widening, deepening, straightening and stabilization of banks, and by the construction of dams.
An important period of channelization took place in Europe during the 19th century, when many large rivers
were straightened and their beds deepened. One of the most dramatically changed was the Tisza River, a branch
of the Danube that flows through Hungary. The controlling of the Tisza, designed to reduce flooding and make
land for agriculture, included cutting off more than 100 meanders (河曲), shortening the river"s length by nearly
400 kilometers.
One of the most common ways in which people control rivers is by damming them. The past 50 years or so
has seen an increase in dam construction worldwide, and at the beginning of the 21st century, there were about
800,000 dams globally, some towering more than 200 meters in height.
Despite their successes, many dams also cause significant environmental changes that prove harmful. Some
particularly deep reservoirs (水库) can bring about earthquakes due to the stress on their bottom rocks caused
by huge volumes of water. Downstream of a reservoir, the river is certainly influenced in many ways:water
volume, speed and quality are all affected, leading to changes in the landscape and among plants and animals.
plants or animals. Languages are considered to be endangered when parents are no longer teaching the l
anguage to their children and are not using it actively in everyday life. A language is considered to nearly
disappear when it is spoken by only a few elderly native speakers.
The world faces enormous challenges in order to protect different kinds of languages. Of the more than 6,912 languages, half may be in danger of disappearing in the next several decades.
It is caused by many reasons: small numbers of speakers, the regular use of other languages, attitudes
towards their languages, moving of the younger population, government policies, and languages used in
education and so on. A language may lack important things such as a body of literature, and people who
read and write it. A language may also lack prestige (声望) and support of its speakers.
The survival of a language is also threatened when speakers move to other areas where different
languages are spoken, or when government policies improve the use of a specific language in school,
official business and the media. These situations encourage people to learn the wider-known language
and may cause them, especially the young, to stop using their mother tongue. Often those speaking
lesser-known languages will choose to learn a more prestigious language with the hope of greater
economic opportunities. Most of the world"s parents are teaching their children English, French, Spanish,
Chinese, Arabic, Russian or some other main languages instead of their own languages for social and
economic reasons.
B. Reasons why languages become endangered.
C. What an
endangered language is. D. Languages spoken by few speakers.
B. more than 3,456
C. 6,912
D. less than 3,456
