He wishes the holiday season would end already. His back aches, his red suit feels like a spacesuit, his cheeks have gone tight from smiling for 12 hours — and still the kids keep coming and coming, like ants at a picnic. As Christmas becomes more commercialized (商业化) across the U. S. and Canada, so must Santas. As the holiday begins earlier each year, so must its spokesmen .

The questions from children these days are harder than ever. Now, with thousands of children expecting a father or mother serving in Iraq or Afghanistan, the questions are as heart-breaking as they are unanswerable. For example, “Can you please bring Daddy home from the war in time for Christmas morning?”

Santas also have a pretty good chance of getting sued (指控). A professional Santa Claus in Canada told a story: A Santa had a girl on his knee, and he commented, “You have nice eyes and nice hair.” The girl later said it was sexual harassment (骚扰). When a Santa feels anxious, he often shows it in the same ways ordinary people do: The Santas were always seen to hang around at the dinner table when the show ended. Many of them just sleep in bed for several days and don’t see other children again.

56．In the first paragraph, “spokesmen” refers to .

A．businessmen B．political leaders

C．organisers of the activities D．Santa Clauses

57．The passage implies that the job of Santa Claus is .

A．well-paid B．very hard C．worth doing D．dangerous

58．According to the third paragraph, Santas may sometimes be blamed for .

A．doing something against the law B．hanging around the dinner table

C．being lazy and sleeping in bed for days D．not playing their roles as expected

59．What would be the best title for the passage?

A．Christmas: Not a Good Festival for Santas

B．Is Santa Claus Really Alive?

C．A Christmas Story

D．What Does Santa Claus Do for Children?

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan–-- Afghans burned tires and chanted “Death to America” after U.S troops fired Monday(April 12, 2010) on a civilian bus near Kandahar, killing four people and wounding more than a dozen. Afghanistan’s president accused NATO of breaking its commitment to safeguard civilian lives.

The attack angered Afghan officials and the public in Kandahar, the Taliban’s birthplace, and dealt a blow to U.S and NATO efforts to win popular support for a coming offensive to drive the insurgents(叛乱分子) from the biggest city in the south. NATO expressed regret for the loss of civilian lives and said it was investigating.

Nearly 200 Afghans blocked highway where the shooting occurred, burning tires, firing weapons and chanting “Death to America” and other slogans. They also called for the ouster (forcing somebody out of a pasition) of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, a Kandahar native who has been appealing for the people here to support the U.S-led campaign against the Taliban.

“The Americans are constantly killing our civilians and the government is not demanding an explanation,” protester Mohammad Razaq said. “We demand justice from the Karzai government and the punishment of those soldiers responsible.”

Kandahar, a city of about a half million people, is nominally under government control, but the Taliban have stepped up infiltration(浸润), staging attacks and threatening local people.

“These foreigners have their enemies, but killing Afghans is not the answer,” said Abdul Hadi, who sells homemade herbal medicine in a public market. He said international forces should publish a schedule of their patrols(巡逻) so Afghans can keep out of the way.

“Better yet, I would like to see them leave Afghanistan,” he added.

Haji Zahir, who runs a transport firm, said it was time for U.S. and other foreign forces to withdraw from the country.

“They say they want to bring security. It is all lies, lies. They kill Afghans. That is not the way to bring security,” Zahir said.

46．According to the passage, we can safely conclude that____________.

A．American soldiers are killing Talibans effectively

B．Anger rises as US troops kill 4 Afghans on a bus

C．NATO expressed great dissatisfaction with American troops

D．Afghan President Hamid Karzai required NATO to withdraw

47．The underlined word in Paragraph 5 nominally most probably means____________.

A．completely unknown to the people in the world

B．partially well-known to the people across the globe

C．bearing the name of a famous person around the world

D．officially described as something, when this is not really true

48．As for NATO soldiers’ rude action, Abdul Hadi is ____________.

A．absolutely angry and upset B．a little pleased but impatient

C．very angry and dissatisfied D．impatient but bearable

49．We can infer from the passage that____________

A．NATO troops can completely control Afghanistan

B．NATO troops can bring security to Afghanistan

C．Afghans will accept NATO’s control sooner or later

D．it’s impossible for NATO to conquer Afghanistan and its people

50．Which statement is true according to the passage?

A．NATO fails to win popular support for a coming offensive.

B．Kandahar is the most important city in Afghanistan.

C．NATO has really brought security to Afghanistan.

D．NATO troops will withdraw from Afghanistan in the near future.
