7．Etymology，the study of words and word roots，may sound like the kind of thing done by boring librarians in small，dusty rooms．Yet etymologists actually have a uniquely interesting job．They are in many ways just like archaeologists （考古学家） digging up the physical history of people and events．The special aspect of etymology is that it digs up history，so to speak，through the words and phrases that are left behind．
The English language，in particular，is a great field to explore history through words．As a language，English has an extraordinary number of words．This is partly due to its ability to adapt foreign words so readily．For example，"English"words such as kindergarten （from German），croissant （from French），and cheetah （from Hindi） have become part of the language with little or no change from their original sounds and spellings．So English-language etymologists have a vast world of words to explore．
Another enjoyable thing about etymology for most word experts is solving word mysteries （谜）．No，etymologists do not go around solving murders，like the great detective Sherlock Holmes．What these word experts solve are mysterious origins of some of our most common words．
One of the biggest questions English language experts have  pursued is how English came to have the phrase OK．Though it is one of the most commonly used expressions，its exact beginning is a puzzle even to this day．Even its spelling is not entirely consistent--unless you spell it Okay，it is hard even to call it a word．
Etymologists have been able to narrow OK's origin down to a likely，although not certain，source （来源）．It became widely used around the time of Martin Van Buren's run for president in 1840．His nickname was Old Kinderhook．What troubles word experts about this explanation is that the phrase appeared in some newspapers before Van Buren became well known．It is likely that Van Buren could be called its primary source．Etymologists will doubtlessly keep searching for the original source．However，it is clear that OK's popularity and reputation have topped those of the American president to whom it has been most clearly linked．
8．The author mentions the words like"croissant"in Paragraph 2to showC．
A．words have changed a lot in the two languages
B．what English-language etymologists are exploring now
C．English has absorbed many words from other foreign languages

A．discover the possible origin of words    
B．help detectives to solve mysterious murders
C．write interesting stories for some newspapers
D．explore the English language as well as the recent events．
11．A．For a lot of children，computers and video games are just an escape from reality，taking them away from real life for a while，replacing a stressful or boring environment with sights and sounds kids could only imagine before．They have the ability of entertaining people's minds while drawing in the whole attention away from real life．So the result will be like this：whenever a child can't handle problems in real life，he might just turn to computer games．
B．Reading Tom Sawyer or Harry Porter is as personal an act as playing an online game or even more personal than playing an online or two-player game．I've rarely seen two people happily reading ONE book together．But when kids play online games they need to work together and it encourages the development of social skills．
C．Many results can occur from playing video games，from feeling abandoned and becoming addicted to getting better in touch with what other students are doing．The question here is whether or not video games affect a child's development，not if it is good or bad．Anything that you interact with is going to have an effect on your development．
D．People blame the computer and videos，because it is an easy target to hit．If you really want to look at people being lonely，look at the school system，where teachers could easily fix the problem by doing more group work with him/her choosing the students for the group．I mean，I could play outside by myself and still be lonely．There isn't a difference．
E．I do believe our children's development is affected by computers and video games play if too much time is spent because that's time that a child used to be playing outside with other children．I think that some computer work is good because it trains the brain in new patterns，but time on the computer need to be limited and playing outside should be encouraged．
F．I am 6feet 2inches，185lbs，all muscle．I'm one of the most popular students and I've had a constant 30+hours of video games since I was in third grade．I played baseball all my life until high school，and still managed up to 40+hours of video games．I am around the 80th position in my grade and have received many honors．So ifs not necessary that computer games affect a kid's development in a bad way．It simply depends on how much exactly one plays，and how one manages their time．

18．A 17-year-old boy，caught sending text messages in class，was recently sent to the vice principal's office．The vice principal，Steve Gallagher，told the boy he needed to focus on the teacher，not his cellphone．The boy listened politely and nodded，and that's when Mr．Gallagher noticed the student's fingers  moving on his lap．He was testing while being scolded for texting．"It was a subconscious act，"says Mr．Gallagher，who took the phone away．"Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they colse their eyes at night．It's compulsive．"
A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain，Ga．，found that the more time young people spend on Facebook，the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits．Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable，but they are also more likely to be anxious，hostile or depressed．（Doctors，meanwhile，are now laming addictions to‘night texting'for disturbing the sleep patterns of teens．）
Almost a quarter of today's teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day，according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media，a nonprofit group that monitors media's impact on families．Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force，or will employers come to see texting and‘social-network checking'as accepted parts of the workday？
Think back，When today's older workers were in their 20s，they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans．In those earlier eras，companies discouraged non-business-related calls，and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired．It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today．
Educators are also being asked by parents，students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules．"In past generations，students got in trouble for passing notes in class．Now students are good at texting with their phones still in their pockets，"says 40-year-old Mr．Gallagher，the vice principal，"and they're able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over．Students are just fundamentally different today．They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones．"
66．The underlined word"a subconscious act"in the first paragraph refers to an actB        
A．on purpose                                                         
B．without realization
C．in secret                                                               D．with care
67．Young people addicted to the use of FacebookC．
A．are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their study
B．have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work
C．have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits
D．are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every respect
68．Through the situation of today's older workers in their 20s，it can be inferred thatD

B．a cellphone is a must for today's older workers instead of young people
C．The employers prefer older workers to young  people
D．the employers will find it hard to control the interaction among young people  
69．Mr．Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those todayC．
A．like to break rules and have the same means of sending messages
B．are always the big problem for the educations and their parents
C．like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful way
D．cannot live without a cellphone

12．Our foreign teacher Mr．Brown，（61）whocame to China for the （62）first（one） time，wanted to visit the Great Wall last weekend．Having been told about the history of the Great Wall，he was （63）amazed（amaze） at this world wonder．He was struck by the  （64）beauty （beautiful） of the Great Wall．So I took photos of （65）him，which would be a good memory for him．At the top，the activity of （66）protecting（protect）  the environment appealed （67）toMr．Brown so he was eager to join in and then （68）signed（sign）  his name．Both the Great Wall（69）and the Chinese people made a deep （70）impression（impress） on him．He decided to visit more places of interest when free．
4．Mobile phone users will be able to charge their devices wirelessly for the first time from 2015．
Fujitsu，the Japanese technology company，has created a system capable of charging quite a few portable electronic devices in the meanwhile，such as mobile phones，digital cameras and laptop computers without the need for cable connections．Electric cars users may also eventually be able to charge their vehicles wirelessly using the same technology according to Fujitsu，which presented a system at an Institute of Electronics，Information and Communication Engineers Conference at Osaka Prefecture University．
Claiming to be the world's first of its kind，the technology works on the basis of the transmission of electricity using magnetic fields between the charger and the electronic device．The system enables wireless charging at distances of up to several metres，with the final aim of installing public"charging spots"on the streets in order to enable easy charging around the clock．
Scientists at Fujitsu Laboratories are planning to commercially sell products including the new wireless charging system as early as 2012but did not make it clear how much they would cost．"This technology makes it possible to add compact wireless charging functions into mobile phones and enabling several portable devices to be charged at the same time without any restrictions（限制）on their position in association with the charger，"the company said in a statement．
The growing popularity of portable electronic devices ranging from iPads to e-readers is expected to fuel a boom in wireless recharging technology developments over the coming decade．
Mobile phone users in Japan can currently fill up their batteries using disposable（一次性的）portable plug-in battery-operated devices--available at most train stations and convenience stores--although phone companies warn any use for too long can damage the phones．
The new system displayed by Fujitsu，however，is significantly advanced and represents the next generation of portable recharging systems using highly tuned wireless technology．The company added，"We are also looking at applying the results of this work to fields other than portable electronics，including power transmission between circuit boards or computer chips，and providing mobile charging systems for electric cars．"

55．The writer's purpose of writing the passage isB．
A．to analyze the current international situation
B．to introduce a new technology applied to charging wirelessly
C．to encourage customers to purchase the new charging devices
D．to warn people against using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
56．According to the new technology，electricity can be transmitted byC．
A．using batteriesB．using the electronic devices
C．using magnetic fieldsD．using disposable portable plug-in battery-operated devices
57．What is certain according to the passage is thatC．
A．the charging system can serve one portable electronic device at a time
B．all the convenience stores in Japan can provide the charging service now
C．wireless charging works within a distance of up to several metres
D．the new product doesn't look promising．
