2.Yesterday,my wife and I took our two kids to a concert by a famous band.It was the second time we had taken them to a concert.
The theme of the concert was"Around the world".This part was especially for children and it was called"Family Fun Day".I was surprised to see that the concert hall was full and happy to know that many parents were providing healthy activities for their children.
The concert lasted for an hour and it performed music from all over the world-from Ireland to Scotland,from England to Thailand,and from Africa to the United States.Though it was a short concert by adults'standard,my son was seen moving about in his seat.Maybe he was too young to appreciate"fine music".
After the concert,my wife asked my two kids if they wanted to come again for another round of concert,the replies were mixed.My daughter said she would like to go again,but my son's reply was no.As for me,I loved it.There were some touching moments in that concert and I was so touched by the beauty and inspiring music that was performed by the band.

Everybody is happy as his pay rises.Yet pleasure at your own can disappear if you learn that a fellow worker has been given a bigger one.Indeed, if he is known as being lazy, you might even be quite cross.Such behavior is regarded as "all too human", with the underlying belief that other animals would not be able to have this finely developed sense of sadness.But a study by Sarah Brosnan of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well.

The researchers studied the behaviors of some kind of female brown monkeys.They look smart. They are good-natured, co-operative creatures, and they share their food happily.Above all, like female human beings, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of "goods and services" than males.

Such characteristics make them perfect subjects for Doctor Brosnan's study.The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens (奖券) for food.Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for pieces of cucumber.However, when two monkeys were placed in separate and connected rooms, so that each other could observe what the other is getting in return for its rock, they became quite different.

In the world of monkeys, grapes are excellent goods (and much preferable to cucumbers).So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was not willing to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber.And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either shook her own token at the researcher, or refused to accept the cucumber.Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other room (without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to bring about dissatisfaction in a female monkey.

The researches suggest that these monkeys, like humans, are guided by social senses.In the wild, they are co-operative and group-living.Such co-operation is likely to be firm only when each animal feels it is not being cheated.Feelings of anger when unfairly treated, it seems, are not the nature of human beings alone.Refusing a smaller reward completely makes these feelings clear to other animals of the group.However, whether such a sense of fairness developed independently in monkeys and humans, or whether it comes from the common roots that they had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.

1.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Only monkeys and humans can have the sense of fairness in the world.

B. Women will show more dissatisfaction than men when unfairly treated.

C. In the wild, monkeys are never unhappy to share their food with each other.

D. Monkeys can exchange cucumbers for grapes; for grapes are more attractive.

2.Female monkeys of this kind are chosen for the research most probably because they are __ _.

A. more likely to weigh what they get

B. attentive to researchers’ instructions

C. nice in both appearance and behaviors

D. more ready to help others than their male companions

3.Which of the following conclusions is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Human beings' feelings of anger are developed from the monkeys.

B. In the research, male monkeys are less likely to exchange food with others.

C. Co-operation between monkeys stays firm before the realization of being cheated.

D. Only monkeys and humans have the sense of fairness dating back to 35 million years ago.

4.What can we infer about the monkeys in Sarah's study?

A. The monkeys can be trained to develop social senses.

B. They usually show their feelings openly as humans do.

C. The monkeys may show their satisfaction with equal treatment.

D. Co-operation among the monkeys remains effective in the wild.

7.Norman E Borlaug,95,an American plant pathologist who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970for starting the"Green Revolution"that increased food production in developing nations and saved millions of people from starvation,died on Saturday September 12,2009at his home in Dallas.
"He has helped provide bread for a hungry world,"the Nobel committee said in honor of him."Dr Borlaug has introduced a dynamic factor(动态因素)into our assessment of the future of food and its potential."
Dr Borlaug was hardly known in the country of his birth,the USA.But in India,Mexico,Russia and other nations with hunger and famine(饥荒),he was known as one of the great Americans of modem times.Edwin Price,director of the Norman Borlaug Institute for International Agriculture at Texas A&M University,once accompanied Dr Borlaug to Russia,where he visited a wheat research institute south of Moscow."When Norman came in,"Price said,"the scientists at the institute all cried."
From the 1970s until his death,he increasingly took the politically incorrect view that environmentalists were bothering world food production by attacking the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides (农药).
Dr Borlaug's career included his ability of science to increase food production at a high rate and the nightmare(噩梦)of an exploding population beyond its ability to feed itself.His work took him from the Iowa farm where he grew up to the primitively planted wheat fields of Mexico in the 1940s,the rice fields of Asia in the 1960s and 1970s to the plains of Africa in the 1980s.
In his lecture accepting the Nobel Prize,he said an enough supply of food is"the first term of social justice…Otherwise there will be no peace."He warned that the world would have too many mouths to feed.

In 1990,Lee produced two screenplays,Pushing Hands and The Wedding Banquet,and they came in first and second respectively.The winning screenplays brought Lee to the attention of Li-Kong Hsu,who had a strong interest in Lee's unique style and freshness.Hsu,a first-time producer,invited Lee to direct Pushing Hands,debuted(首映) in 1991.From then on,he began his splendid career.

11.There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm.He was given a  slingshot(弹弓)to play with out in the woods.He practiced in the woods,but he could  never hit the target.Getting a little discouraged,he headed back for dinner.As he was  walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck.
Just out of impulse(冲动),he let the slingshot fly,hit the duck in the head and killed it.He was shocked!In a panic,he hid the dead duck in the wood,only to see his sister  watching!Sally had seen it all,but she said nothing.
After lunch the next day Grandma said,"Sally,let's wash the dishes".But Sally  said,"Grandma,Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen."Then she whispered to him,"Remember the duck?"So Johnny did the dishes.Every time Grandma asked Sally to do some housework,she will repeat the same story.After several days of Johnny doing  both his work and Sally's,he finally couldn't stand it any longer.He came to Grandma   and confessed that he had killed the duck.
Grandma gave him a hug and said,"Sweetheart,I know.You see,I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing,but because I love you,I forgave you.1was just  wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.,
In our daily life,whatever we do,God is always standing at the window and he sees the whole thing.He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness,he not only forgives you,but also he forgets.

12.Governments all over the world make public reports about the condition of their economies.Most countries,including the United States,have used a measure called the gross national product (国民生产总值)or GNP.It includes all goods and services produced by citizens of the country anywhere in the world.
Recently the American Commerce Department has started using a new method to measure production.It is known as the gross domestic product(国内生产总值)or GDP.It counts only goods and services that have been produced within the nation's borders.Money earned by foreign companies operating in the United States is included in the GDP,but money earned by American companies operating in other countries is not.
Economic experts generally approve of the change.They say that the gross domestic product provides a truer measure of the economy.They also note that most other industrial countries use this method.Therefore it will be easier to study the economies of different countries.Some officials also hope the new system will help them make better economic policy decisions.It will provide them with a clearer understanding of economic activity in the U.S..The new measure is less likely to be affected by sudden changes in foreign oil prices or in the value of the American dollar in other countries.
Economic experts believe that the change from GNP to GDP will immediately reduce the value of American production by at least 40,000million dollars a year.But that is really a very small change in the American economy-less than 1%.The Commerce Department reports the unofficial gross domestic product once every three months.The government also continues to report GNP as it has four times a year since 1941.

36.To report the American GNP,the government should not consider goods and services producedD.
A.by American companies at home          
B.by American companies in China
C.by American companies in Singapore      
D.by Japanese companies in the United States

A.by both American and foreign companies in America
B.by American companies within its own borders
C.by foreign companies in the United States
D.by American companies in its foreign markets
38.GDP is considered better than GNP by some economists becauseD.
A.it is something new              
B.it is used by most countries
C.it is easier to calculate            
D.it is less likely to be affected by the foreign market
39.What will happen to the value of American economy if GDP is used to replace GNP?C
A.It will be seriously affected.
B.It will not be affected.
C.It will come down a little.
D.It will slightly go up.
40.How often are the reports of GDP issued by the American Commerce Department?B
A.once every four months                  
B.once every three months
C.once every six months
