The First Lesson of the New Term, a TV programme about how to protect oneself in times of emergency, is meant to provide school students with the knowledge on self-protection. It will help students in case of natural disasters such as earthquakes, fires, snowstorms or floods. Many examples show that enough knowledge about self-protection along with enough courage and willpower can help many survive.

The most recent example is from the earthquake in Sichuan Province in May of 2008. While thousands of school kids were killed by collapsed school buildings, all students from a middle school survived even without a single one being hurt. That’s because of their timely and orderly evacuations (撤离), which they had been drilled in every term.

It’s good to see this program is the most important activity of a national campaign to make students be aware of personal safety. Chinese Education Ministry has called on all schools nationwide to give lessons on self-protection knowledge in times of emergency every term.

A strong wind can be a dangerous thing-sometimes it is powerful enough to knock you off your feet.But to plants,the wind is a source of new life,carrying them or their spores(孢子)thousands of miles.

A NASA satellite called QuikSCAT has discovered highways of wind over the Earth's oceans.Scientists believe these invisible roads may explain why many nonflowering plants,such as mosses(苔藓)and lichens(地衣),grow where they do.

The satellite is able to send microwaves(微波)from space to the surface of the ocean.The pattern of signals that come back shows which way the winds are blowing.

Using this data, the scientists studied a group of islands in the southern hemisphere(半球),near Antarctica.Winds tend to blow anticlockwise(逆时针)in this region,but there are lots of local differences.

When the researchers compared these local patterns to botanical(植物学)data,they found that the wind had an important effect on where species of mosses,lichens,and other nonflowering plants grow.

For example,Bouvet Island and Heard Island,share 30 percent of their moss species,29 percent of liverworts(叶苔),and 32 percent of lichens-even though they are 4,430 kilometers apart.In contrast,Gough Island and Bouvet Island,separated by just 1,860 kilometers of sea,share only 16 percent of mosses and 17 percent of liverworts.They have no lichens in common.

Ferns(蕨类植物)and flowering plants don't travel as well in the wind,so they don't show the same kinds of distribution(分布)patterns.

 

67.This story is about               

A.the discovery of wind highways                   B.how wind travels

C.how wind affects different plants                 D.one of the wind

68.The underlined word “data” in the fourth paragraph means              

A.signal              B.pattern                    C.information             D.research

69.Which of the following is WRONG?

A.Bouvet Island,Heard Island and Gough Island are all in the southern hemisphere.

B.Winds in the researched areas blow anticlockwise.

C.The scientists needn't base this research on how winds affect where ferns grow.

D.Without the QuikSCAT,the research wouldn't have made sense.

70.Which of the following diagrams shows the correct position of the islands?

 

What should you think about in trying to find your career(职业)? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.  

Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.  

If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.  

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs(拇指) when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.  

 

68.Which of the following best sums up(概述) the first paragraph?  

A.The importance of doing well at school.  

B.Using school performance to help to choose a career.  

C.The importance of being good at all subjects.  

D.The indirect value of school work.  

69.The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably _______.  

A.a waste of time that could have been spent on study  

B.useful for his future work  

C.a good way to earn extra money  

D.a good way to find out his weak points  

70.According to the passage, if a student’s school record is not good, he _______.  

A.will be a complete failure in his future work  

B.will not be able to find a suitable job  

C.will regret not having worked harder at school  

D.may do well in his future work  

71.The whole passage centers on _______.  

A.choosing a career according to what one is skilled in  

B.acquiring(获取) knowledge by working hard at school  

C.finding one’s strong and weak points  

D.developing one’s abilities useful in school work  

  

LONDON (Reuters)―Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.  

“Organic produce is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And at most times it is locally grown and seasonal. So it is more tasty.” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers accepting the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amount of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.  

 

60. More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because________.  

A. they are getting richer                               B. they can get the food anywhere  

C. they consider the food free of pollution       D. they like home-grown fruit  

61. Which of the following statements is TRUE to the facts about most organic produce sold in Britain?  

A. It grows indoors all year round.             B. It is produced outside Britain.  

C. It is grown on family farms.                  D. It is produced on large farm.  

62. What is the meaning of “the organic trend” as the words are used in the text?  

A. Growing interest in organic food.           B. Better quality of organic food.  

C. Rising market for organic food.             D. Higher prices of organic food.  

63. What is the best title for this news story?  

A. Organic Food---Healthy, or Just for the Wealthy?  

B. The Making of Organic Food in Britain.  

C. Organic Food---to Import or Not?  

D. Good Qualities of Organic Food.
