12．Women who own cats are more likely to have mental health problems and kill themselves because they can be infected by a common parasite that can be caught from cat litter，a study has found．
Researchers found women infected with the Toxoplasma gondii （T．gondii） parasite（刚地弓形虫），which is spread through contact with cat waste or eating undercooked meat or unwashed vegetables，are at increased risk of attempting suicide．
The study involved more than 45，000women in Denmark．About a third of the world's population is infected with the parasite，which hides in cells in the brain and muscles，often without producing symptoms．
The infection，which is called toxoplasmosis（弓形虫病），has been linked to mental illness，such as schizophrenia（精神分裂症），and changes in behavior．
The study's senior author Doctor Teodor Postolache，an associate professor of psychiatry（精神病学） at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in the United States，said，"We can't say with certainty that T．gondii caused the women to try to kill themselves，but we did find a predictive association between the infection and suicide attempts later in life that deserves additional studies．"
Doctor Albert Reece，vice president of medical affairs at the University of Maryland，said，"T．gondii infection is a major public health problem around the world，and many people don't realize they're infected．
"Dr Postolache is a leading expert on suicide neuroimmunology（神经免疫学）．Suicide is a critically important mental health issue．About one million people commit suicide and another 10million attempt suicide worldwide each year．We hope that this type of research will one day help us find ways to save many lives that now end too early in suicide．"
Dr．Postolache's research team at the University of Maryland was the first to report a connection between T．gondii and suicidal behavior in 2009．He is cooperating with researchers in Denmark，Germany and Sweden to confirm and investigate the way leading to this association．
The T．gondii parasite thrives in the intestines of cats，and it is spread through their waste．All warm-blooded animals can become infected through contact with it．Humans can become infected by changing their infected cats'litter boxes，eating unwashed vegetables，drinking water from a polluted source，or by eating undercooked or raw meat．
Not washing kitchen knives after preparing raw meat before handling another food item also can lead to infection．Pregnant women can pass the parasite directly to their unborn babies and are advised not to change cat litter boxes to avoid possible infection．
Babies don't produce antibodies to T．gondii for three months after they are born，so the antibodies present in their blood represented infection in the mothers．The scientists studied Danish health patients to determine if any of these women later attempted suicide，including cases of violent suicide attempts which may have involved guns，sharp instruments and jumping from high places．
The study found that women infected with T．gondii were one and a half times more likely to attempt suicide compared to those who were not infected，and the risk seemed to rise with increasing levels of the T．gondii antibodies．
Dr Postolache noted limitations to the study，such as the inability to determine the cause of the suicidal behavior．
The findings were published online in the Archives of General Psychiatry．

3．In the more and more competitive service industry，it is no longer enough to promise customer satisfaction．Today，customer"delight"is what companies are trying to achieve in order to keep and increase market share．
It is accepted in the marketing industry，and confirmed by a number of researchers，that customers receiving good service will promote business by telling up to 12 other people； those treated badly tell tales of worse to up to 20 people．Interestingly，80 percent of people who feel their complaints are handled fairly will stay loyal．
New challenges for customer care have come when people can obtain goods and services through telephone call centers and the Internet．For example，many companies now have to invest a lot of money in information technology and staff training in order to cope with the"phone rage"-caused by delays in answering calls，being cut off in mid-conversation or left waiting for long periods．
"Many people do not like talking to machines，"says Dr，Storey，Senior Lecturer in Marketing at City University Business School．"Banks，for example，encourage staff at call centers to use customer data to establish instant and good relationship with them．The aim is to make the customer feel they know you and that you can trust them-the sort of comfortable feelings people have during face-to-face chats with their local branch manager．"
Recommended ways of creating customer delight include：under-promising and over-delivering （saying that a repair will be carried out within five hours，but getting it done within two）； replacing a faulty product immediately； throwing in a gift coupon as an unexpected"thank you"to regular customers； and always returning calls，even when they are complaints．
Airlines face some of the toughest challenges over customer care．Fierce competition has convinced them that delighting passengers is an important marketing tool，while there is great potential for customer anger over delays caused by weather，unclaimed luggage and technical problems．
For British Airways staff，a winning telephone style is considered vital in handling the large volume of calls about bookings and flight times．The Airways also says its customer care policies are applied within the company and staff are taught to regard each other as customers requiring the highest standards of service．
Customer care is obviously here to stay and it would be a foolish company that used slogans such as"we do as we please"．On the other hand，the more customers are promised，the greater the risk of disappointment．

41．We can learn from Paragraph 2 thatD．
  A．complaining customers are hard to satisfy
  B．unsatisfied customers receive better service
  C．satisfied customers catch more attention
  D．well-treated customers promote business
42．The writer mentions"phone rage"（Paragraph 3）to show thatC．
  A．customers often use phones to express their anger
  B．people still prefer to buy goods online
  C．customer care becomes more demanding
  D．customers rely on their phones to obtain services
43．What does the writer recommend to create customer delight？
C 
  A．Calling customers regularly．   B．Giving a"thank you"note．
  C．Delivering a quicker service．  D．Promising more gifts．
44．Customer delight is important for airlines becauseB．
  A．their telephone style remains unchanged
  B．they are more likely to meet with complaints
  C．the services cost them a lot of money
  D．the policies can be applied to their staff
45．Which of the following is conveyed in this article？C
  A．Face-to-face service creates comfortable feelings among customers．
  B．Companies that promise more will naturally attract more customers．
  C．A company should promise less but do more in a competitive market．

10．In 1945，the re was a young boy of 14in a concentration camp （集中营）．He was skinny （36）B  had a bright smile．Every day，a young girl came by on the other side of the fence．She（37）B the boy and asked him if he spoke Polish，and he said yes．She said he looked （38B，and he said he was．She then （39）A  in her pocket and gave him her apple．He（40）D her and she went on her way．The next day，she came by again，（41）Banother apple．Each day，she walked by the outside of the fence，（42）C to see him，and when she did，she happily  （43）B him an apple in exchange for conversation．

20．United Nations Climate Change Conference
The U．N．Climate Change conference opened in Copenhagen，Denmark on Dec.7th with some 15，000delegates and observers from nearly 200countries attending what is called the last best chance for an agreement to combat（与…战斗） global warming．
Their aim is to find common ground，including on reduction of greenhouse gas emissions，promotion and transfer of new more eco-friendly technology and the necessary funding to make this possible，especially for the less developed and poorer nations．It also means coming up with long term vision and cooperation for the future．
Most scientists believe the warming trend is mainly caused by human activity，especially the use of fossil fuels（矿物燃料） and the cutting down of forests．Skeptics（怀疑论者） say global warming is part of a natural cycle of climate change．
In Copenhagen，experts and officials alike are  putting the emphasis on what people and governments can do to cut the emission of greenhouse gasses．
Scientists say a 25to 40percent cut in carbon-dioxide emissions is needed to control global warming．The European Union，China，and India have already pledged（保证） reductions．The United States is waiting for Congressional（国会的） approval for a proposal put forward by the Obama administration．
Barack Obama，President of the United States said，"Each of us must do what we can when we can to grow our economies without endangering our planet--and we must all do it together．We must seize the opportunity to make Copenhagen a significant step forward in the global fight against climate change.."
Desmond Tutu，Archbishop of South Africa said，"Worldwide，we have the chance to start turning the tide of climate change，but only if all governments commit themselves to a fair，binding（有约束力的） and sustainable climate agreement in Copenhagen．"

56．From the first paragraph we can infer thatD．
A．people think that this conference is of no use
B．this conference is the last one to be held about the climate change
C．before this conference some countries fight against each other．
D．people expect a final agreement will be achieved
57．Which is NOT included in the aim of this conference？B
A．To reduce the emission of the greenhouse gases．
B．To develop the agriculture and industry of the developed countries．
C．To cooperate with each other for the future．
D．To transfer new more eco-friendly technology．
58．Which statement is TRUE according to the passage？C
A．The United States refuses to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases．
B．The European Union is waiting for a proposal put forward by Obama．
C．China and India have already agreed to cut carbon-dioxide emissions．
D．South Africa doesn't think much of this conference．
59．What is Obama's attitude according to his words？B
A．Doubtful．     B．Positive．
C．Negative．     D．Regretful．
60．Dis the reason of global warming according to the skeptics．
A．Human activity                      B．Fossil fuels
C．The cutting down of trees           D．Natural climate change．
7．Third-generation mobile phones，known as 3G，are the next big step for the electron industry．Data speed in 3G networks are much quicker than present technology．This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones．
"Mobile data is not a dream； it's not an option but a requirement，"said Len Lauer，head of a US communications company，Sprint PCS，at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month．
With 3G，you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday's news； a 3G phone can receive video news programs，updated four times a day．Internet access will also be much quicker，making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home．
Face-to-face video calls
And don't worry about getting lost.3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset．
However，the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling．With live two-way video communication，you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone．
Many European countries have already launched the service．In May 2000the US Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services，while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year．
International telecom companies can't wait to sell 3G in China，the world's largest mobile telecommunications market．But they will have to be patient．At the moment，China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies，networks and services．This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops．
"We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service，"said Fan Yunjun，marketing manager for Beijing Mobile．"We expect that the 3G licenses will be issued late next year．"
64．With 3G，you can do the following EXCEPTC．
A．find your way easily
B．learn what's going on in th world
C．make your computer run faster
D．make face-to-face video telephone calls
65．According to the text，which function of the following makes 3G technology most extraordinary？B
A．It can provide video news programs，updated four times a day．
B．Users can have face-to-talks with friends and family on their mobile phones．
C．Users can enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones．
D．It'll be easier for users to surf the Web on their phone than on their computers at home．
66．Which of the following is true according to the passage？D
A．3G mobile phones were first used in America．
B．Foreign telecom companies won't enter China．
C．3G technology is now at the commercial stage in China．
D．Users in China won't probably use 3G mobile phones until late next year．
67．What does Len Lauer want to inform the readers？A
A．Realizing the dream of mobile data based on the application of 3G is a must．
B．There is no need to send messages since 3G，can receive video news programs．
C．3G is supposed to own all the functions that a computer has．
D．It is a choice to carry mobile data with 3G phones．
5．It's amazing how we grow from careless kids to responsible teens．What happens in the course that makes us responsible now？It's the seed that we sow in the beginning which grows and becomes a huge tree．As I sit here，silently thinking about my growth，I wonder over some questions which don't have an answer but it's because of such unanswerable situations that life has become a roller coaster ride．
As a kid，I used to read a lot of story books．In one particular book，I read a story of a bird．From then on，that has become an integral （必不可少的） part of my life．It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a nest and the female bird takes shelter in it and nourishes the baby．When the bird learns to fly，the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it．It made me wonder．How could they so easily sacrifice their house built with so much effort？
One night，when I was deep in sleep，I got this particular dream．I was walking miles on the endless road，totally isolated but lined with beautiful trees on the either side．Fascinated by the greenery，I marched towards it only to end up deeper and deeper into the greenery．I happened to stop upon seeing something．It was a massive，wonderful house．I fell in love with that amazing part of art．Yeah，it was indeed a piece of art with every nook and corner touched artistically and lovingly．I don't know why I felt that it was done lovingly．Maybe because，things turn out to be beautiful only when we put our love into it-just like the food prepared by mom which tastes more delicious with her love．
I explored the house only to fall more in love with it．There was a sloping roof which matched with the greenery around； the large central open courtyard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now when it is completely deserted．The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house-of course，it was all dried up now．It's really wonderful how such things add life to the spaces which otherwise just become structures．Such liveliness and happening turns the house into a home．They say‘THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS'，but now I began to feel it．This is where my heart belongs．This is what I'm destined to do．
When I woke up from the dream，I was clear about everything．I realized where that mile of walk was intending me to lead．I realized what message my dream wanted to convey me．And years later，when finally my turn of choosing my destination came，I simply closed my eyes，held that book in my hand，pressed it against my chest and relived the dream．When I opened my eyes，I was sure what to do．I decided to choose the road-less traveled．Yes，I took up architecture as my profession because this is what I am destined to do．I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did，to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it．This is my dream come true and the happiness that I gain now from this profession is indescribable．
