阅读理解    You love Jay Chou"s songs and you can sing some quite well. So you make a video of your
performance and post it online for your friends to see. But what if this led to something beyond
your wildest imagination-a career in music?
     Canadian teenager Justin Bieber, 16, has just had the magical experience: He posted homemade
videos of his versions of songs by American singer Chris Brown online for his relatives. He received
a phone call from Brown, telling him how much he liked his performance. His singing eventually earned
him a fan base and a record contract. After releasing a popular EP (extended play密纹唱片) record
in November 2009, his album My world 2.0 came out last Tuesday.
      Bieber sings ballads and songs about puppy love. But is he just another gooey (甜腻的) teen idol?
David Malitz, a columnist with the Washington Post, doesn"t think so. "If we truly want the best for
American children, let us pause and give thanks for Justin Bieber," he writes. "After years of humdrum
bubblegum (乏味的摇滚舞曲) from Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the 16yearold has thrown a
candycoated wrench (扭转) into Disney"s heartthrob (甜心) assembly line (生产线) by giving young
fans something worth screaming their lungs out for: lovable pop songs."
     From a boy who grew up below the poverty line with his divorced mom to a star who caused
nearriots (近乎失控) in shopping malls, even Bieber himself can"t believe his overnight fame, although
his kind of success is becoming more and more common in the Internet era.
      Interested in hockey (冰球), the national sport of Canada, the boy once put up pictures of players
on the walls of his bedroom. He dreamed of being a hockey star and used to practice signing his
autograph (签名). He doesn"t need practice now. He signs autographs, if the girls can get close enough,
as a music star.

1. What did Chris Brown think of Justin Bieber"s singing?
A. He didn"t like it.
B. He liked it very much.
C. He didn"t say anything.
D. He supported Justin Bieber.

2. Who is a columnist?
A. Chris Brown.
B. Jay Chou.
C. David Malitz.
D. Miley Cyrus.

3. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A. He had a happy family.
B. His family was very poor once.
C. His family was rich.
D. His family helped him a lot.

4. What"s Justin Bieber"s hobby?
A. Singing.
B. Hockey.
C. Signing.
D. Making records.

5.What"s the best title of the passage?
A. Justin Bieber"s overnight singing online.
B. Justin Bieber"s common experience.
C. Justin Bieber"s life.
D. Justin Bieber"s records.

     A smart card is a card that is carried with either a microprocessor and a memory chip or only a
memory chip that is not programmable. The microprocessor card can add,delete, and deal with the
information on the card, while a memorychip card can only do one thing.
     Smart cards, unlike magnetic stripe cards, can do many different things and hold a lot of information.
In this way, they do not need to get information from a faraway place when they are used.
     Today, there are several kinds of smart cards, all of which are very popular in the market: IC
(Integrated Circuit) Microprocessor Cards (chip cards) offer a larger memory and better security
than the traditional magnetic stripe cards do. Chip cards can also hold data. These cards are used for
many things. Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity. Some
examples of these cards are:
     Cards that hold money.
     Cards that provide safe access to a network.
   Cards that allow setting stop boxes on televisions to remain safe from privacy.
     Optical Memory Cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top. Optical memory cards can
store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data cannot be changed or removed. Thus, this type
of card is good for keeping records, such as medical files, driving records or travel histories. Today,
these have no processors in them (although this is coming in the near future). While the cards are almost
as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive.

     Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive
people are happier and healthier,have better marriages and have more respectable occupations.
Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive
defendants(被告). But in the executive circle,beauty can become a liability.
     While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful
to a woman.
     Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men；effort and
ability were thought to account for their success.
     Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones；their
success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.
     All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable
than the attractive female executives.Interestingly,though,the rise of the unattractive overnight successes
was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
     Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine
and an attractive man more masculine(有男子气概的)than the less attractive ones.Thus,an attractive
woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs,but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine
position appears to lack the"masculine"qualities required.
     This is true even in politics."When the only clue is how he or she looks,people treat men and women
differently,"says Anne Bowman,who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates.She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs,one of men and
one of women,in order of attractiveness.The students were told the photographs were of candidates for
political offices.They were asked to rank them again,in the order they would vote for them.
     The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men,but the women who had
been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.

1. The underlined word "liability"(in Para.1)most probably means "________".
A. misfortune
B. instability
C. disadvantage
D. burden

2. In traditionally female jobs,attractiveness________.
A. reinforces(加强)the feminine qualities required
B. makes women look more honest and capable
C. is of primary importance to women
D. often enables women to succeed quickly

3. Bowman"s experiment reveals that when it comes to politics,attractiveness________.
A. turns out to be an obstacle to men
B. affects men and women alike
C. has as little effect on men as on women
D. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women

                                                       Celebrating sleep
     World Sleep Day, observed on 21 March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of
sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world
ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common.
     In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in
10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people that responded
to the survey, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent
were diagnosed with insomnia (失眠) and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with borderline insomnia. In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems
and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.
     Overall, the survey found that many people suffer from the effects of poor quality sleep, some
examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main
factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise
pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The survey"s
findings are particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping
at night. The shortterm effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating. If this happens for a long
time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase.
     There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular
sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your
bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you
should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as
caffeine may keep you from sleeping.
     Getting a good night"s sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest
better at night and work better during the day.
                                                              Title: Celebrating Sleep
