阅读理解。     Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education
in the country.    
     The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs
and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.    
     As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the
deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas
students have also been eased.    
     Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting
from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.    
     "This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning
to study overseas," says Wang Lan, a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC),
a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.    
     However, in the past few years, many of Wang"s student clients (客户) could not start studies in
Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and
deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to
study in Australia, Wang says.    
     A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies
in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.   
     "According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put
down 550,000 yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan. This is a relief for my
parents," Li says.
    She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study
plans.    
     "I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I
return to China," she says.    
    Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according
to the report by EIC.1. What"s the main idea of the passage?  A. Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B. Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C. Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D. More students will work in Australia after their graduation.2. Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations?  A. The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B. The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C. Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D. After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.3. After the new regulations are passed, _______ .   A. more students will come to Australia to work
B. more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C. the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D. more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia4. How much can Li"s parents save according to the new regulations?  A. 550,000 yuan
B. 140,000 yuan
C. 410,000 yuan

that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which was sold over 30 million copies in

Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set in the city.

Edinburgh?" he said.

to come out later this year.
     A spokesman said," JK Rowling"s audience is vast and her position is uniqLle. Hatry 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."1. What does the text mainly tell us?A. JK Rowling has signed a deal with a new publisher.

阅读理解。     In the past decade, openness has become mainstream, and the vast majority of domestic adoptions
(家庭领养) are open ones. Even so, potential adoptive parents and birthparents are often fearful when
they first hear of the concept.
     Making Room in Our Hearls: Keeping Family Ties Through Open Addption answers the most
common questions about the influence of open adoption, and how it affects the lives of everyone related.
Duxbury, a family expert who specializes in adoption advice, is also an adoptive parent. Her book opens with her own family"s story.
     Duxbury surveyed 150 families, but her book is not a collection of data. Instead, it allows these
families to share their thoughts and wisdom, their joy and pain; the stories communicate the great
happiness families feel at" working together for the sake of the child" and the steady view that the
adoptive parents are the parents. They also touch on problems that can arise from opening closed
adoptions
.
     The most convincing advocates for open adoption here are the adopted teens themselves.
Commenting on the question people always ask: "Are you confused about who is you real
mother?", Josh, age 2l now. states, "Kids aren"t stupid. I think I would be confused if my birthmother
was not in my life. But my birthmother is not another parent. Your parents are your parents. My
birthmother is really important to me. She is like a special aunt, but she is not my parent."
     "Openness gives children the gift of possibilities, for now and for the future," writes adoption expert
Patricia Martinez Dorner in her closing thoughts. "It is not a ctre-all, but it creates the possibility for a
stronger sense of permanence and identity." This book is important reading for everyone touched by
adoption.
1. The first paragraph is written with the aim to        .A. advise people to open their adoptions
B. bring in the topic of open adoption
C. explain why open adoption has become mainstream
D. advertise the book Make Room in Our Heart2. What kind of view may both Duxbury and Josh agree with?A. The adoptive parents are the parents.
B. Only stupid kids may regard their birthmother as parent.
C. A collection of data of adoptive families is useless.
D. All adoptive families should share their joy and pain.3. We can learn from the text that kids of"closed adoptions"         .A. will not be told the truth of adoption
B. hate their birthparents very much
C. usually have fewer family problems
D. will become stupid with no birthparents4. The adopted children"s attitude towards open adoptio11 is          .A. ridiculous
