18.Norway-Ten Chinese college students arrived at the country's Arctic(北极的) research base,the Yellow River Station,on Friday.
On Saturday,the students are expected to witness the end of four months of darkness in the area,as the sun makes a rare appearance.
During their four-day stay at the station,the students will meet and learn from some of China's leading polar researchers.They were welcomed at the station yesterday by its director,He Jianfeng,who is an expert on marine micro-ecosystems.
The students will also visit the German and Norwegian stations and meet researchers there.
As for entertainment,the visitors will get the chance to play ice hockey at the world's most northerly stadium.
Among the visitors is Zheng Li,a student majoring in telecommunications at Dalian Marinetime University.
"It is so exciting to see how the Chinese researchers work in the world's most northerly laboratory,"she said.
"This opportunity is precious.Most people will never get the chance to travel so far from home and visit such an amazing place.It's a once-in-a-lifetime thing."
Wu Jinyou,head of the Polar Research Institute of China,and the group's leader,said,"I hope the students have not only a field trip to the Yellow River station,but are also touched by the devotion and spirit of the Chinese researchers here.I also expect in the future,some of them will choose to devote themselves to polar research and maybe even work with us."
The students have been in Norway since February 28,and were given Arctic training before moving to the station.
The Arctic expedition is one of the several international cooperation and exchange activities forming the China Program for International Polar Year (2007-2008).It was launched last March.

9.Whatever misfortune you face,just hold up your head and face it with a smile!I got to know this from a musical soul.
The other day I was feeling quite,(41)C having just been laid off from my job.With so many(42)Ato pay,I was wondering what was going to happen to my family.
I got off the bus when I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the (43)B.I walked a bit slower,trying to find out where it was coming from.Through the (44)DI saw a young lady sitting at a piano with a box next to her.
She was singing songs about love and her sweet voice (45)B me a bit.Then I stood there watching her playing,thinking that it must take (46)Ato perform on her own in front of hundreds of people she didn't know.
She might have felt my (47)B for she occasionally looked in my direction.
By now I was telling myself that I could at least tell her how good she sounded.I walked (48)D and put some money in her box and she expressed her thanks with a smile on her face.
I asked her(49)C,"Why are you playing the piano in the middle of this crowded place?"
She explained to me that she sees so many(50)A people in the world that she is trying to relieve the pain by (51)B motivational(激励的)music.
Instead of continuing my way home,I said to her,"I have been going through a (52)C time lately,but you've made me(53)D again."
"I'm happy that I could be (54)D to you,"she replied."Why are you so sad?"
I told her my story and said,"I'm not so (55)A about what to do…."
"You see,here's the (56)A,"she responded."When you were walking,your head was down."She looked me in the eyes and went on,"Don't look defeated,because (57)B comes in different ways and if your head is down you might never see it.You should(58)C more …lift your head up."

    The day was bright and sunny,and I started to wonder if she was being too cautious.When snow began to fall at 6:00 pm,I was not worried,thinking we'd have no(38)Cin catching a taxi back.However,we waited for a while,and all the drivers shook their heads when told of our(39)B.

13."If we can set it up so you can't unlock your phone unless you've got the right fingerprint(指纹),"Barack Obama asked last Tuesday,"why can't we do the same thing for our guns?"For this reasonable-sounding question,the president was praised throughout the media.
As it happens,though,there is a good answer to this question:there is no market for guns that work just some of the time.Guns are simple things designed to operate as easily and reliably as possible.The introduction of electronics eats away this simplicity,and to a degree that is absolutely unacceptable to the consumer.As President Obama well knows,the fingerprint software on his phone works rather erratically:Often it takes a user two or three tries to log in; occasionally,it falls asleep deeply and obeys the password.When this happens on an phone,the user is mildly inconvenienced.If this were to happen on a gun,the user would be dead.There is a reason that modern smartphones put the camera function outside of the authentication(认证) process.
How could we possibly think that guns are the same as other commercial products?It is true that,say,cars have become considerably safer over the last few decades; true,too,that"research"has contributed to this improvement.But it matters enormously that a car is not intended to hurt people,and that in a perfect world nobody would ever be injured by one.Can we say the same of guns?Of course not.Guns are killing machines,designed to do damage to living things.In fact,they have no other purpose.As such,the salient(突出的) question before any free people is not"are guns dangerous?"they are,but"who gets them,and why?"
This is not to say that nothing at all can be done to improve public safety.On an individual level,gun owners should do everything to ensure that their guns are kept away from children,and,where possible,they should train themselves in case they are ever called upon to shoot in anger.At the national level,the combination of better policing and economic growth can help to reduce crime-and,indeed,it has.In 1993,gun crime was more than twice as common as it is now,and there were fewer guns in circulation.Unpleasant as it is in its own right,that we have reached the point at which two-thirds of all guns-related deaths are deliberately self-inflicted (自虐) is a small victory.
How to deal with those deaths that remain?That is a tricky one.I do not know the answer,and nor,frankly,does anybody else.But selling fantasies to the ignorant is not going to cut it.
29.What does the writer mainly argue in this passage?B
A.Gun crime has been greatly reduced.
B.The idea of smart guns is not realistic.
C.Gun control will not succeed in America.
D.Guns-related deaths deserve public attention.
30.The underlined word"erratically"in Paragraph 2 probably meansC.
A.with effectiveness                                  
B.with passion and energy
C.in an unpredictable manner                     
D.in a reasonable and fair way
31.The writer supports his ideas in Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly byD.
A.analyzing statistics(数据)                         
B.presenting problems and solutions
C.quoting the authorities(引用权威)           
D.making comparisons and contrasts
32.Which of the following might the writer NOT agree with?A
A.Few know how to deal with guns-related deaths.
B.Efforts to improve public safety have partly paid off.
C.The nature of guns makes them different from other products.
D.Guns using fingerprint software can risk the lives of the users.
10.Everyone would like to be a millionaire,a person with a lot of money,but can you imagine having over﹩30million and only being 20years old?Britney Spears from Kentwood,a small town in Louisiana,is only 20years old.She is a world famous film star with not only﹩30million but also a﹩2million house in LA.At her young age,she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life.This year is a big year for Britney.She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out.That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000people every time.It's a tiring schedule but brings her a lot.When touring,she goes to bed around 1a.m.and then has a lie-in until 1p.m.the next day.Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.
Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting.She made an appearance in"Austin Power 3"this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003.In this movie,she has a starring role.
For Britney,acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all.If her movies are successful,her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love,not the money,as she herself tells the reporters.

1.We can infer (推断) from the text that most millionaires areA.
A.older than 20    B.around 20   C.in their 30s     D.in their 40s
2.The underlined word"you"in the first paragraph refers toA.
A.a person in general                   B.a special person
C.Britney Spears                        D.a person interested in money
3.According to Britney Spears,she worksB.
A.to be a great actress       B.for the enjoyment
C.for money                   D.to be more famous.

8.Most people,when they travel to space,would like to stay in orbit for a few days or more.And this stands to reason,if you're paying﹩20,000for your trip to orbit(轨道)!So in order for tourism to reach its full potential there's going to be a need for orbital accommodation---or space hotels.What would a space hotel actually be like to visit?Hotels in orbit will offer the services you expect from a hotel---private rooms,meals,bars.But they'll also offer two unique experiences:impressive views---of Earth and space---and the endless entertainment of living in zero gravity---including sports and other activities that make use of this.
The hotels themselves will vary greatly---from being quite simple in the early days to huge luxury structure at a later date.It's actually surprising that as later as 1997,very few designs for space hotels were published.This is mainly because those who might be expected to design them haven't expected launch(发射) costs to come down far enough to make them possible.
Lots of people who've been to space have described vividly what it's like to live in zero gravity.There are obviously all sorts of possibilities for dancing,gymnastics,and zero-G sports.Luckily,you don't need to sleep much living in zero gravity,so you'll have plenty of time for relaxing by hanging out in a bar with a window looking down at the turning Earth below.
Of course all good things have come to an end,unfortunately.And so after a few days you'll find yourself heading back though you'll be much more expert at exercising in zero gravity than you were when you arrive.You'll be thinking how soon you can save up enough to get back up again---or maybe you should change jobs to get to work in an orbiting hotel.

24.When traveling in space,most people would like to stay in orbit for a few days becauseA.
A.It is expensive to travel in space
B.they would find the possible life in other star systems
C.they could enjoy the luxury of space hotels
D.they want to realize the full potential of tourism
25.Which of the following is a unique experience that space hotels will offer?B
A.The gravitational pull   B.The special views.
C.The relaxation in a bar.D.The space walk.
26.This passage is mainly aboutD.
A.traveling in space
B.the ways of living in space hotels
C.zero gravity and space hotels
D.the description of space hotels.
