In order to help customers find what they want quickly，it’s important to keep the thousands of titles in the Main Street Movies store organized properly．This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.

Each Main street Movies store has three main sections:

1.New Releases Wall.

2.Film library.

3.Video Games.

New Releases Wall．Almost 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases，and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store．The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits．When new titles come into the store，place them on this wall in alphabetical order．The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases．The New Releases Wall，including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves，holds about 350 titles.

Film Library．The thousands of titles in the Film Library are organized into categories．The films within each category are displayed alphabetically．Here are the categories and their two-letter computer codes：

Foreign Language titles include films that were originally made in a foreign language and films with foreign language subtitles．A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is.

Video Game．All the video games in Main street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order．Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory(库存)，they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store．Therefore，video games are never displayed on the shelves．Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game．When a customer wants to rent a particular game，you then find the game from the locked case behind the counter.

1.Whom do you think this passage is most probably addressed to?

A． The readers in the store.

B． The manager of the store.

C． The customers in the store.

D． The salespersons of the store.

2.In which order are the new movies moved in the store?

A． From Hottest Hits to Film Library to Recent Releases.

B． From Film Library to Hottest Hits to Recent Releases.

C． From Recent Releases to Film Library to Hottest Hits.

D． From Hottest Hits to Recent Releases to Film Library.

3.Why can’t video games be seen on the shelves?

A． Because they’ve been sold out.

B． Because they’re in the storehouse.

C． Because they’re in a locked case behind the counter.

D． Because they represent a small percentage of the inventory.

4.How can a customer find a film with foreign language subtitles?

A． Check the computer.

B． Look at the back of the box.

C． Check the center section.

D． Watch a few minutes of the film.

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.

I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.

Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.

He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.

Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.

I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.

Today, several of the world's nearly 7,000 languages face a serious risk of extinction. "For example, Ainu, a language in Japan, is now seriously threatened, with only 10 native speakers left," said lead study author Tatsuya Amano at the University of Cambridge in England.

The scientists found that 25 percent of the world's languages are threatened. After identifying where the endangered languages were, they looked for any environmental and social or economic factors those languages might have in common, such as rugged terrain or rapid population growth. "We found that at the global scale, language speaker declines are strongly linked to economic growth-that is, declines are particularly occurring in economically developed regions," Amano said.

One important implication of this new study "is that languages in the tropics and Himalayan region are likely to be increasingly threatened in the near future, because these regions still have many local indigenous languages (土语) with a small number of speakers, and at the same time are experiencing rapid economic growth," Amano said.

Economic growth may endanger languages for a variety of reasons. For instance, speakers of endangered languages may view another more dominant language as offering economic opportunities, and thus forego their own languages. There are other important factors that might endanger languages, the researchers said. For instance, policies regarding how languages are used and taught in schools can be very different among countries and even within each country, and these factors may explain more detailed patterns in language endangerment.

Amano suggested it could be possible to forecast future threats to linguistic diversity. "There exists detailed information on projected future changes in the environment, economies and climates," Amano said. "Using such information, together with the findings of this study and further analysis, we would like to understand what will happen to the world's languages, where it will happen and which languages will be threatened in particular."

1.The language of Ainu is mentioned in Paragraph l in order to tell us that _______________.

A. Japanese is new seriously threatened

B. few people speak Japanese in the world

C. Japanese is made up of many languages

D. it is most likely to disappear in the future

2.What may endanger the languages most according to Amano?

A. The diversity of society.

B. The decline of the population.

C. The development of economy

D. The improvement of the environment.

3.The writer shows us the reasons that languages are endangered by ___________________.

A. offering some examples

B. performing some experiments .

C. telling some interesting stories

D. making a list of important facts .

4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______________.

A. the study is very important to languages

Are you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world’s most beautiful volcanoes that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don’t miss them!

Mount Mayon, the Philippines

Located about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns on the Albay province and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have historical good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed by an 1814 eruption.

Kilauea and Mauna Kea, Hawall

Hawaii’s volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.

Mount Kelimutu, Indonesia

Kelimutu’s three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island of Flores in Indonesia’s East Nusa Tenggara province. One is emerald green（翡翠绿），another dark red, and the third pitch black. Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the volcanic gases met the lakes’ minerals centuries ago.

1.People who hike Mount Mayon can enjoy the following EXCEPT .

A. views of the towns in the Albay province

B. views of the Pacific Ocean

C. views of the Cagsawa Ruins

D. views of Indonesia’s East Nusa Tenggara province

2.According to the text, Kilauea .

A. is an active volcano

B. stopped erupting in 1983

C. is the youngest volcano in the world

D. forces thousands to flee in 2014.

3.The colors of Kelimutu’s three mysterious crater lakes are due to .

A. water pollution B. different environment

C. chemical reaction D. different temperatures

Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.

The largest study of the effects of aging on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.

“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20--25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.

“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the aging process.”

What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.

“This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink.

They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease.

The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart, said Goldspink.

The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.

1.The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to ______.

A. health B. long life C. aging D. effect

2.The text mainly talks about ______.

A. men’s heart cells B. women’s aging process

C. the gender difference D. hearts and long life

3.According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ______________.

A. women have more cells than men when they are born

B. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat

C. the female heart loses few of the cells with age

D. women never lose their pumping power with age

4.If you want to live longer, you should ___________.

A. enable your heart to beat much faster

B. find out the reason for aging

C. exercise regularly to keep your heart healthy

D. prevent your cells from being lost

5.We can know from the passage that __________.

A. the reason why aging takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out

B. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells

C. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss

D. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20
