Several days ago, a Beijing-based IT company fired about 400 people overnight.  No one had expected the job cuts, which broke with traditional ways of letting go of workers in China.  Moreover, what was special about this case was that the day before the 400 were fired, they all received from their boss a gift—the book “Who Moved My Cheese?”

    The book—a bestseller in the US—is being used by men and women to deal with changes in their lives and work. Some large organizations, including Coca-Cola, Kodak and General Motors, ask their employees to read it in order to encourage them to be active towards changes.

    Cheese is something related to everyone’s livelihood-Our jobs, the industries we work in, relationships and love as well.

    With China’s official entry into the WTO, the whole nation will face up to more changes and challenges. So what we should do once this “cheese” on which we are so dependent is moved?

    “Whatever challenges and changes we meet, we should face up to them bravely,” Jiang Hengwei, a civil servant said after reading the book.

    Professor Zhang Yang in Renmin University of China agrees. “We should change our way of thinking. The coming competitive foreign companies and products provide us with great chances to learn from them and improve our own products to meet international standards and be more competitive.”

    “With hard work and wisdom, we will create a much larger and better piece of cheese.” Zhang smiled confidently.

Professor Martin’s report says that children who attend a number of different schools,because their parents have to move around the country,probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs,says Professor Martin,that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected.

The professor says,“It’s true,my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. But our findings are based on research and not on any personal feelings. ”

Captain Thomas James,an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two,said,“I’ve never heard of such rubbish. Taking me for example. no harm is done to the education of my children,who change schools regularly—if they keep to the same system,as in our Army schools. In my experience—and I’ve known quite a few of them—Army children are as well adjusted as any others,if not more so. What the professor doesn’t appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situation children will adapt much better than grown-ups.”

When this reached Professor Martin,he said that at no time had his team suggested that all children were backward or mentally affected in some way,but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency.

“Our findings show that while the very bright children can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies,the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning situation.”

Professor’s Martin’s report suggests that      

A. it may not be good for children to change schools too often

B. parents should not move around the country

C. changing schools is the reason of children making slow progress

D. more and more children are mentally affected

According to the passage,Professor Martin's personal feeling.

A. is the opposite of what his report has shown

B. is in a way supported by his research

A. have been affected by changing schools

B. go to ordinary state schools

C. can get used to the Army school education

D. discuss their education regularly with their father

About children and grown-ups,Captain James says that children____.

A. are generally poorly-adjusted      

B. are usually less experienced

C. can adapt much more easily             

D. can deal with changes quickly

If there is one thing I’m quite sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we still be reading newspapers. Not those newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of the news from the television or have the radio switched on in the background or in the car. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.

The basic British character won’t change, and one of the characteristics of the British is that we don’t much like talking to each other when we get up. So what better way is there to keep yourself thinking in the morning than to wrap yourself in a newspaper?

Over the past couple of centuries, human beings have developed a close relationship with the newspaper. It has become as natural as breathing or enjoying the sun. And it is not just the British who love newspapers. On suburban trains in Calcutta, for instance, just one person in the whole car will buy a newspaper and read aloud the best bits to his fellow passengers, much to everybody’s enjoyment.

The nature of what is news may change. What essentially makes news is what affects our lives and the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do, whether it’s love or depression. We develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.

It’s quite possible that in the next century newspaper will be transmitted(传送) electronically from the national equivalents of Fleet Street (伦敦的舰队街,以报馆集中而著称) and printed out in our own homes. In fact, I’m pretty sure that that is how it will happen in future. You’ll be probably selecting from a menu, making up your own bespoke newspaper by picking out the things you want to read and say. You might even have an intelligent screening device (装置) to do the job for you.

I think people have got it wrong when they talk about the competition between the different media. They actually have a relationship, feeding off each other. It was once predicted that television would kill off newspapers, which hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page is more enduring (持久的) than pictures on a flickering screen or sound lost in the sky. And as for the Internet, it’s never really satisfying to read something just on a screen.

Protecting Copyright

Having finished her homework, Ma Li wants some music. As usual, she starts her computer and goes to Baidu.com to download music files. But this time she is surprised when an announcement about protecting songs’ copyright bursts onto the screen. The age of free music and movie downloads may have come to an end as Web companies like Baidu are accused of pirating copyright. Lawsuits have been filed against four websites offering free downloads. In September 2005, a Beijing court ordered Baidu to pay recording company Shanghai Push compensation for their losses. Baidu was also told to block the links to the pirated music on the website. This caused a heated discussion on Interact file sharing.

“Baidu’s defeat in the lawsuit shows it is not right to get copyrighted songs without paying. Down loaders may face lawsuits or fines,” said an official.

Like many teens, Huang Ruoru, an 18-year-old girl from Puning in Guangdong Province, doesn’t think that getting music from websites is wrong. She always shares her favourite songs downloaded from Baidu with her friends. When told about the lawsuit, she began to feel a little guilty about obtaining others’ work without paying.

However, other teenagers have different ideas. Wang Yafei, a Senior 2 girl from Jinan, Shandong Province pointed out that file sharing is a good way to promote pop singers. “If I download a song and really like it, I will buy the CD,” she said. “So what the recording companies really should concentrate on is improving their music, rather than pursuing file-sharers.”

1.Which of the following best describes the passage?

A. Downloading material can be illegal.

D. Baidu is a popular web company.

2.The four web companies were put to court because ________.

A. they got copyrighted songs without paying

A. A bit guilty.                        B. A little sad.      

C. Extremely angry.                    D. Awfully sorry.

4.What’s the advantage of file sharing for recording companies?

A. Getting more money from web companies.  

B. Making pop singers more popular.

C. Helping to improve the music.           

D. Enabling people to download favorite songs.
