1.Want to know more about how World Food Programme helps women all over the world?Here is a quick look at the valuable things it has done.
Investing(投资) In Bulls,Woman Begins To Escape From Poverty
In Shahinoor's household there were days when she struggled to put even one meal on the family table.She and her husband are among Bangladesh's poorest:those with no land,no wealth and little hope of breaking out of hunger and poverty.But a new programme to unlock the entrepreneurial(创业的) spirit of Bangladeshi women has transformed her life.
Food Aid Brings Fresh Water To Nepalese Village
Kanukura,33,says that carrying water up the mountain slopes to her village used to be the hardest part of her day.It's a job that mainly fell to women in this part of Nepal,who faced a difficult and tiring climb when they needed water.But that's changed now,thanks to a new village tap,from which women like Kanukura can get clean drinking water whenever they need it.
In Colombia,Food Assistance Is Part Of Response To Violence Against Women
In Colombia,WFP assists many victims of sexual and gender-based violence,providing them with food assistance as they recover.As part of her work for WFP,Mariangela Bizzarri recently visited a town on Colombia's Pacific coast to meet some of these women and to assess the effect of the violence they have experienced.She sent us this personal account of one day of meetings.
Afghanistan Diary-Day Six
On the final day of Silke's trip to central Afghanistan,she meets three women,each of whom impresses her with their determination to improve their own lives,and those of their families and their community.One of them is thrilled at simply having a job in a government office.As a child the idea of working outside her home had seemed impossible.
60.Who lives in a place where water used to be difficult to get according to the passage?B
A.Silke      B.Kanukura     C.Shahinoor    D.Mariangela
61.We learn from the passage that women in ColombiaD.
A.may give birth to 5 children
B.can't go to school all their life
C.have to work in a government office
D.are more likely to get harmed than men      
62.Women in Bangladesh now become not so poor as they used to be byA.
A.raising bulls with the help of WFP
B.working more hours in the fields
C.doing part-time jobs in the evening
D.receiving money from the government
63.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?C
A.There are many victims of sexual violence in Nepal.

18.Job sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full time job.The two people willingly act as part-time workers,enough hours between them to fulfill the duties of a full-time worker.If they each work half the job,for example,they each receive 50percent of the job's wages,its holidays and its other benefits.
Job sharing differs from conventional part-time work in that it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas,which require higher levels of responsibility and employee commitment.
Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing,which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job,thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people.Job sharing,by contrast,is not designed to deal with unemployment problems; its focus,rather,is to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities.
As would be expected,most job sharers are women.A survey carried out in 2010by Britain's Equal Opportunities Commission showed that 78per cent of sharers were female,the majority of whom were,between 20and 40years of age.Subsequent studies have come up with similar results.Many of these women were reentering the job market after having had children,but they chose not to seek part-time work because it would have meant lower status.Job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a long absence.
The necessity of close cooperation when sharing a job with another person makes the actual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs.However,to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed,each person needs to know the strengths,weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position.Moreover,there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interesting ones.In sum,for a position to be job-shared well,the two individuals must be well matched and must treat each other as equals.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

81.What is work sharing designed to do?
to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals
82.According to paragraph 4,why did young mothers prefer job sharing to conventional part-time work?
Because the part-time work is lower status and job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work.
83.In job sharing the partners shouldbe well matched and must treat each other as equals.
84.The main purpose of the passage is tointroduce job sharing to us..
5.It's 10p.m.You may not know where your child is,but the chip does.
The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help.Once doctors arrive,the chip will also be able to tell them which drugs are not suitable for little Jonny or Janie.At the hospital,the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history.And of course,when you arrive to pick up your child,setting the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip  the one embedded(植入) in your hand.
To some,this may sound unbelievable.But the technology for such chips is no longer the stuff of science fiction.And it may soon offer many other benefits besides locating lost children or elderly patients.It could be used as credit cards and people won't have to carry wallets anymore.
On the other hand,some are already wondering what this sort of technology may do to the sense of personal privacy and liberty.
"Any technology of this kind could result in abuse of personal privacy,"says Lee Tien,senior staff lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation."If a kid can be tracked,do you want other people to be able to track your kid?It's a double-edged sword."
Applied Digital Solutions,Inc.in Palm Beach,Florida,says it has recently applied to the Food and Drug Admission for permission to begin testing its device in humans.About the size of a grain of rice,the microchip can be coded with bits of information and embedded in humans under a layer of skin.When scanned by a nearby reader,the embedded chip gives the data.
Most embedded chip designs are so-called passive chips,which give information only when scanned by a nearby reader.But active chips such as the proposed Digital Angel of the future  will give out information all the time.And that means designers will have to develop some sort of power source that can provide a continuous source of energy,yet be small enough to be embedded with the chips.
In addition to technical problems,many suspect that all sorts of legal and privacy issues would have to be cleared as well.

68.By using the example in the first two paragraphs,the author wants to tell us thatC.
A.chips are usually used to locate lost children
B.chips are more convenient than credit cards
C.chips will soon be useful in many aspects of daily lives
D.chips will bring out the issue of abuse of personal privacy
69.What is the attitude of Lee Tien towards the chips?D
A.Negative      B.Positive      C.Indifferent  D.Concerned
70.Which of the following statements about Digital Angel is NOT true?B
A.It will include a chip and a power source.
B.It will be produced and replace passive chips.
C.It will be embedded in humans under a layer of skin.
D.It will give information without being scanned by a reader.
71.It is indicated in the passage that chip producers have to consider the following issues EXCEPTA.
A.financial problems             B.technical problems
C.legal problems                 D.privacy problem.
15.In cities with rent control,the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment.Supporters of rent control,argue that it protects people who are living in apartments.Their rent cannot increase; therefore,they are not in danger of losing their homes.However,the critics say that after a long time,rent control may have negative effects.Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits.Therefore,they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits.They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled.As a result,new apartments are not built.Many people who need apartments cannot find any.According to the critics,the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way.The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers.The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled,low-paying jobs.However,if the minimum is high,employers may hire fewer workers.They will replace workers with machinery.Therefore,other things being equal,the number of workers that employers want decreases.Thus,critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment.Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people,keep their dignity.Because of the law,workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum.Furthermore,employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predict the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production rent control and the minimum wage.The predictions may be correct only if"other things are equal"Economists do not agree on some of the predictions.They also do not agree on the value of different decisions.Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it.Economic do agree,however,that there are no simple answers to economic questions.

66.This passage shows that setting maximum rent mayD.
A.encourage the construction of more apartments
B.discourage the renting of apartments as homes
C.reduce the shortage of apartments
D.result in a shortage of apartments.
67.From the passage,we can infer that rent controlB.
A.is completely unnecessary
B.will likely bring about undesired results
C.will bring positive effects in the long run
D.is necessary under all circumstances
68.The problem of unemployment may come up whenC.
A.he minimum wage is set too low           B.the workers are unskilled
C.the minimum wage is set too high         D.people need low-paying jobs
69.This passage is mainly about economists'disagreement onD.
A.the effectiveness of government controls
B.-the urgency of getting rid of government controls.
C.the relationship between supply and demand
D.the possible results of government controls
70.We can conclude from the passage thatB.
A.the results of economic decisions can always be predicted
B.predicting the results of economic decisions is something complicated
C.minimum wage can not protect employees
D.economists usually have the same prediction about an economic decision.
2.Two new electronic book products (the SoftBook and the PocketBook) have gathered extensive press coverage,including articles in ABC News,the New York Times,San Jose Mercury News,and WIRED.
An electronic book (e-book) is a book-length publication in digital form,consisting of text,images,or both,and produced on,published through,and readable on computers or other electronic devices.Different from a traditional printed book,e-books are born digital.
Being a firm believer in tablet computers for many tasks not involving heavy data entry,I applaud these new designs of the products.In particular,the SoftBook has nice leather binding (封皮),going far beyond the traditional (and boring) industrial design used for other portable computers.The PocketBook has a more traditional industrial design,typical of leading electronic gadgets (小配件).
Unfortunately,neither company mentions their product's screen resolution (分辨率).Low-resolution monitors (including all computer screens until now) have poor readability:people read about 25% slower from computer screens than from printed paper.Scientists believe that only the screen with 300dpi displays has the same reading speed as print.So unless they have much better screens,electronic books will have a problem.
A project called"the last book"is getting much attention,which aims at producing a computer in the form of a folio (对开本):a set of pages using"digital ink".Users would move forward in the information by turning pages just as they do in a printed book.Hopefully,the scientists will eventually invent a way to make the"digital ink"display characters at a high enough resolution to gain the same reading speed as print.
Even when e-books gain the same reading speed as print,they will still be a bad idea.Page turning remains a bad interface (界面),even when it can be done more conveniently than by clicking the mouse on a"next page"button.
Another problem is that most e-book publishers do not warn their customers about the real meaning of the digital rights management (DRM) tied to their products.Generally they claim that it is meant to prevent copying of the e-book.However,in many cases it is also possible that it will result in the complete denial of access by the purchaser to the e-book.The e-book is tied to a specific computer or device.In these cases,the DRM will usually let the purchaser move the book a limited number of times after which they cannot use it on any additional devices.If the purchaser upgrades or replaces their devices,they may lose access to their purchase.Some forms of the DRM depend on the existence of online services to authenticate (认证) the purchasers.When the company that provides the service goes out of business or decides to stop providing the service,the purchaser will no longer be able to access the e-book.

19.NEW YORK (Reuters)-The average number of monthly visitors to U.S.newspaper websites rose by nearly a third in the first half of 2006,a study released on Wednesday said,though print readership at some larger papers fell.
The study,released by the Newspaper Association of America,underlines the internet's importance to papers beset (围困)by failing circulation and advertising income in their print editions.
The average number of unique visitors to online newspaper sites in the first half was more than 55.5 million a month,the study said.That compares with 42.2 million a year earlier."Newspaper websites have become a significant addition to the print product,and are driving large audience growth,"said John Kimball9 the association's chief marketing officer.The number of page views at newspaper sites rose by about 52 percent in the first half,the association added.
US Newspaper publishers have been fighting to hold on to advertisers as many of them lose readers to other media,including the Internet.
Key to the latest report is the finding that websites are bringing in more younger readers,the association said.
The Washington Post,s website increased its audience reach among readers aged 25 to 34 by more than 60 percent,the report said.Audience reach^combines the average weekly print audience and the net 30-day website audience.
Overall,newspaper websites helped drive a 15 percent increase in the total newspaper audience for 25-to-34-year olds and a 10-percent increase for 18-to 24-year olds,the association said.
It did not provide comparisons to the same period last year for total print newspaper readership.Readership numbers,which were provided by Scarborough Research,include circulation,shared copies and any other way that someone could end up reading a newspaper.
Print readership fell,according to a comparison of figures from the two periods conducted by Renter,.‘
The New York Times readership dropped 5.8 percent,while the largest U.S.paper,USA Today,fell 3 percent.The Wall Street Journal saw readership remain nearly the same.
