  SHANG HAI :Slim 21-year-old Huang Wenxian is a woman of many talents. She is not merely beautiful and clever ,she also knows the correct way to eat a banana.First you take the fruit, cut it open with a knife and then slice it into small pieces which you eat with a fork.“You would do this on a formal occasion or in front of somebody that you respect,” she says. Huang is one of an elite group of girls at the Shanghai Normal University Women's College ,who have been admitted to study Chinese Literature or Public Relations at China's first State funded finishing school.

The curriculum includes ordinary coursework as well as Japanese, English, embroidery(刺绣),the tea ceremony and Chinese and Western table manners.?

Many of the finer points of femininity(妇女气质) lapsed when women were urged to strive for equal rights and forget their feudal traditions, said course director Professor Sun Xun.

“After 1949,government policies emphasized women's rights so there were no women's colleges; they went to ordinary colleges,”he said.?

  In the 1990s,the idea of all female colleges resurfaced. However, the new breed of women's colleges are not aiming to be centers of academic excellence modelled on Girton at Cambridge or Radcliffe on the U.S. east coast.?

  Rather, these ,new finishing schools are modeled on the Swiss ideal of turning out young ladies who know how best to get out of a car, or arrange a bunch of flowers.? “We started the women's college because although there is emphasis on women's equality in society ,women's special talents are different,” said Sun.?

  With China entering the World Trade Organization and the country's big cities becoming more cosmopolitan(世界性的),young people need to grasp international manners to succeed in business.?

  Suggestions that these schools will merely turn out “Flower vases”—Chinese slang for trophy women who are empty but beautiful—are denied by the administration and students.“I can answer that accusation with facts, we are very capable. There is one girl in my course who already has written her first novel. Perhaps other people are just jealous,” said Huang.?

  One woman who is sure that finishing schools will gain ground in China is June Yamada ,a Japanese entrepreneur who aims to set up a “Style Academy” in partnership with the Jinmao Group that co-owns Shanghai's Grand Hyatt hotel.?

  Yamada hopes to sell training courses to corporations or aspiring career girls who want to work for international firm but still spit their chicken bones onto the table.?

“People need elegance .They need manners, and that is not the kind of thing that you find in university,” she explains.?

  Shanghai Normal University, accepts only girls over 1.62 meters for Women's College courses because many companies place an emphasis on women being tall and pretty before considering them for jobs.?

  But while many Chinese films do set height standards, the idea is unknown at multinationals.“I've seldom seen that kind of thing. As I recall, my secretary was quite short,” says Shah Olynik ,a public relations consultant who formerly worked for a major U.S.PR firm.?

The snow has paralysed(使瘫痪) transport in China during the country’s most important vacation period, the celebration of the Chinese New Year. Not only have transport delays hindered personal trips, but they have also slowed the delivery of fresh produce to markets. Consequently, in Zhengzhou, the capital city of the Henan province, tomato prices have doubled, and the cost of 47 other vegetables has increased by 36%, as reported by local media at the end of January.

     According to an inside PR source, “wholesalers in Beijing were quoted as saying that only about 20% of the usual fresh vegetable supplies were reaching the city.” As an Asian country with a diet based on fresh produce, the shortage of vegetables and the rise in prices is not only affecting fresh food producers, but also the final consumers.

     In terms of production, this is the worst snow disaster to hit China in the last 50 years, affecting a total of 9.4 million hectares of farmland in the country, according to a report published on 4 February 2008 by Feng Tao of Xinhua News, at the Chinese government website. Most of the crops devastated(毁坏)by the frost are located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the traditional natural border between North and South China.

Chen Xiwen, Director of the Office of the Central Leading Group on Rural Work, pointed out at the end of last week that “the blizzard disaster in the south has had a severe impact on winter crops, and the impact on fresh vegetables could be catastrophic in certain areas”, as stated in the Xinhua News report.

     The Chinese government has been quick to take extreme measures. The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) has sent 13 teams of experts to 8 of the areas most seriously affected by the harsh weather. The aim of this initiative is to provide farmers with technical assistance to minimize their losses.

From this passage, we can know that the snow happened _____.

   A. During the Spring Festival

   B. In the coldest days of the winter

   C. In the North of China.

   D. It’s not mentioned here.

What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph four?

   A. worst  B. snowstorm  C. cold weather  D. biggest

This passage mainly tells us _____ .

   A. The snow in the south of China caused many problems.

   B. The effect of the snow in the south of China on the fresh food

   C. The snow in the south of China slowed the delivery of fresh produce to markets.

   D. The Chinese government has taken extreme measures to help the suffered farmers.

The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) has sent 13 teams of experts to 8 of the areas to _____ .

   A. help the farmers plant crops          B. give money to the farmers

   C. give directions to the farmers with their technic(技术;技巧).

   D. deliver crops for the farmers.

Ten is not just a number. For Hong Kong, it means change. That change began 10 years ago on July 1, 1997, when Hong Kong was returned to the mainland. A year later, putonghua became a major subject in middle schools there. Street chatter now is trilingual: Cantonese, English and putonghua.

But language is just one of the many changes. Over the past 10 years, the flow of people has left its mark, especially on the young people.

The first sign is in the job market. Before 2006, about 10,000 young professionals from the mainland found jobs in Hong kong. At the same time, around 240,000 Hong Kong residents had worked or were working on the mainland. More than 60 percent of them were aged 23 to 25, according to official statistics.

Geng Chun, 26, a native of northern China, managed to start his own IT business after completing his university degree in Hong Kong three years ago.

“I like Hong Kong,” Geng said. “Hong Kong needs us. We’re young, well-educated and energetic.”

Education is the next thing to change. After the return, more people from both the mainland and Hong Kong began crossing the border to get an education.

According to China’s Ministry of Education, in 2006, 914 Hong Kong students were admitted to mainland universities. In all, 7060 studied in the mainland that year. Before that time, Hong Kong students were rarely seen in mainland schools.

There was a growth on the other side as well. In the early 1990s, about 100 mainland students went to Hong Kong every year to study. Last year, 1300 studied in Hong Kong universities.

Besides social and cultural changes in Hong Kong, business exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong have greatly increased.

 According to a Xinhua report, by the end of 2006, the mainland’s total investment in Hong Kong had reached $40 billion since 1997, which makes up 57 percent of all investments to places outside the mainland.

“We have many clients from the mainland, and actually, they are becoming our biggest group of clients,” said Ho, a manager for a Hong Kong PR company. “The mainland has provided our company with more business opportunities, which are vital for our development.”

Every year some 15,000 animals - mostly mice - are

shipped into the UK for research.Some leading scientists are

warning that pressure from animal rights activists is reducing the

number of animals being brought into Britain for research.All

ferry companies and all but two airlines have stopped importing

animals intended for research laboratories.

Lord Drayson, who was a minister under the last Labour government, said animal research was "regrettably" necessary and that people would "suffer and die" without it."If we do want to have access to medicines, and I believe that we do - in a survey carried out in the past 10 years more than 87% of the general public have said that they support animal research for medical uses.And so unfortunately we do have to do this."

However, Alistair Currie from People, for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) said researchers should work harder to come up with alternatives to animal testing."More man 90% of drugs that pass trials in animals fail when they're given to people," he said.They either prove to be unsafe or simply ineffective."

The BBC's Tom Fielden says animal rights campaigners have been imprisoned for taking direct action against laboratories in the past and more recently have focused on creating bad PR (public relations).He says this has included letter-writhing and web-based campaigns against transport companies, which appear to have had an effect.

But the scientists who depend on the animals for their work have now decided to speak out to try to persuade the government and the transpon companies to stand up to the campaigners.Professor Robin Lovell-Badge, a geneticist at me National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), told the BBC it was important that scientists were able to import animals, so they could work together with colleagues abroad. Dominic Wells of the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) said, "The problem is that they can't be put in a suitable transport."

63.Now animal rights campaigners are trying to affect importing animals by _______.

       A.finding alternatives to animal testing         B.creating bad public relations

       C.taking direct action against labs           D.stopping transport animals to UK

64.According to Lord Drayson, importing animals is ________.

       A.optional                                         B.necessary

       C.unreasonable                                   D.unconditional

65.Who is against importing animals for research?

       A.Alistair Currie form PETA.                B.Tom Fielden from the BBC.

       C.Robin Lovell-Badge from the NIMR.       D.Dominic Wells from the RVC.

66.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

       A.Activists stopping direct action against imports

       B.Importing animals contributing to medicine

       C.Activists' pressure slowing animal imports

       D.No animal imports, no medical research
