16.The young people who talk of the village as being"dead"are talking nothing but nonsense,as in their hearts they must surely know.
No,the village is not dead.There is more life in it now than there ever was.But it seems that"village lire".is dead.Gone for ever.It began to decline about a hundred years ago.When many girls left home to go into service in town many miles away,and men also left home-in increasing numbers in search of work,and home was where work was.There are still a number of people alive today who can remember what"village life"meant in the early years of the last century.It meant finding.your entertainment in the village of within walking distance of it.It meant housewives tied to the home all day and every day.It meant going to bed early to save lamp-oil and coal.
Then came the First World War and the Second World War.After each war.new ideas,now attitudes.new trades and occupations were brought to villagers.The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make"village life"and"town life"almost alike.Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all,there is no point whatever in talking any longer about"village life.".It is just life.and a better life.
Finally,if we have any doubts about the future,or about the many changes which we have seen in our lives.we have only to look in at the school playground any midmorning;or see the children as they walk home fn little groups.Obviously there children ale better fed,better clothed,better educated,healthier.prettier and happier than any generation of children that ever before.walked the village street.

B.it is harmful to talk about…
C.it is not meaningless to talk about…

4.Almost 80% of the Americans have stated their opposition to cloning pet animals such as cats and dogs,yet companies still try to make a business out of selling cloned pets.Pet cloning has been promoted as a way to"bring back"or"copy"a beloved companion animal.However,studies have shown that cloning remains an experimental technology with many failures.
Behind each lovely picture of a cloned cat or dog lie hundreds of animals that were kept in lab cages,receiving bad treatment to produce just that one cloned animal.For all that,you end up with a cloned animal who is unlikely to appear like the original physically or behaviorally and may experience serious health problems.Also,while pet cloning companies are charging customers up to﹩150,000 for a cloned pet,millions of homeless animals of the same species are available in US animal shelters for around﹩100.Unfortunately,most of these animals are killed for lack of adopting homes.
With No Pet Cloning campaign,the American Anti-Vivisection Society (AAVS) tries to protect both animals and people from harm.They campaigned until the US companies that sold cloned animals closed their doors.First it was Genetic Savings & Clone Inc.and then it was BioArts International.
When BioArts was closed,its owner,Lou Hawthorne,finally had to acknowledge the problems of pet cloning.According to Hawthorne,he has seen numerous failures during his pet cloning attempts,"One clone----which was supposed to be black and white----was born greenish-yellow where it should have been white (we still have no good explanation for how that happened)."
The AAVS is educating the public about the animal suffering and is seeking regulation of cloning activities.They will continue to take the lead in protecting animals from the threats of pet cloning.

11.Being a victim of schoolyard violence can help pupils learn how to manage argument and develop their ability to get along with others,it was claimed.
Helene Guldberg,associate lecturer in child development at the Open University,said trying to stop the"supposedly terrible dangers of bullying(欺负)"can do more harm than good.She insisted teachers should not break up"everyday playground argument",saying children should be left to deal with it themselves.
In an on-line article,Dr.Guldberg said that bullying was"an experience that children need to develop".But the comments were strongly criticized by anti-bullying campaigners.
According to official figures,almost half of children claim they are bullied at school.One of the biggest studies of its kind by Ofsted showed 48percent of young people had been orally or physically abused in the last year.It comes despite a number of government measures designed to crack down on the threats.
Writing on a website,Dr.Guldberg said:"Teachers are increasingly taking the task of looking after children's health and well-being rather than being allowed to get on with the task of educating them.Children are encouraged to assume their relationships with other children are damaging,and encouraged to look upon their classmates with suspicion."She added:"If we treat children as if they cannot possibly cope with hurtful experiences,then we will likely to weaken their confidence and make them less likely to cope with difficult events in the future.In effect,we will prevent them from growing up."
The comments echo(附和) remarks made by teachers in recent years who claim the education system has been too focused on developing children's social skills at the expense of academic learning.But Sue Steel,national manager of the Anti-Bullying Alliance,said:"Children who are being bullied often find it difficult to tell anyone.Teachers can help by giving appropriate attention."

65.The underlined word"abused"in Para.4is similar in meaning to"B".
A.criticized            B.attacked            C.helped               D.judged
66.Which of the following is TURE according to Helene Guldberg?B
A.Teachers should take the task of dealing with children's argument.
B.Children should be left to cope with their argument themselves.
C.Children will gain their confidence if teachers manage their argument for them.
D.Children can't cope with difficult events after dealing with hurtful experiences themselves.
67.Anti-bullying campaigners think thatA.
A.teachers should help deal with children's argument in a proper way
B.the government should take measures to stop children from being bullied
C.children will be prevented from growing up with too much school violence
D.teachers should develop children's academic learning rather than social skills
68.The passage mainly tells us that schoolyard violence isC.
A.difficult to get rid of             B.common among young people
C.not necessarily bad for children    D.harmful to children's academic learning.
1.Downloading music over the Internet is pretty common among high school and college students.However,when students download and share copyrighted music without permission,they are against the law.
A survey of young people's music ownership has found that teenagers and college students have an average of more than 800illegally copied songs each on their digital music players.Half of those surveyed share all the music on their hard drive (硬盘),enabling others to copy hundreds of songs at any one time.Some students were found to have randomly linked their personal blogs to music sites,so as to allow free trial listening of copyrighted songs for blog visitors,or adopted some of the songs as the background music for their blogs.Such practices may be easy and free,but there are consequences.

The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America),the organization that files lawsuits against illegal downloaders,states that suing (控告) students was by no means their first choice.Unfortunately,without the threat of consequences,students are just not changing their behavior.Education alone is not enough to stop the extraordinary growth of the illegal downloading practice.

69.What does Mike mean by saying that"the threat was just a scare tactic"?D

8.The crisis at Japan's Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear energy center has raised questions about the future of the nuclear energy industry.Arjun Makhijani is president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in the United States.He says the disaster in Japan is historic.
This week,the chairman of America's nuclear agency said there is little chance that harmful radiation from Japan could reach the United States.Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairman Gregory Jaczko also said America has a strong program in place to deal with earthquake threats.No new nuclear power centers have been built in the United States since 1979.That was when America's worst nuclear accident happened at the Three Mile Island center in Pennsylvania.The accident began to turn public opinion against nuclear energy.
To support more clean energy production,the Obama government has been seeking billions of dollars in government loan guarantees to build new centers.Presently,about twenty percent of electricity in the United States comes from nuclear energy.But critics say nuclear power is too costly and dangerous to be worth further expansion.
German prime minister Angela Merkel said Germany would doae all seven nuclear power centers for a moment while energy policy is reconsidered.The European Union is planning to test all centers in its twenty-seven member nations.
Developing nations are less willing to slow nuclear expansion.China said it would continue with plans to build about twenty-five new nuclear plants.And India,under a cooperation agreement with the United States,plans to spend billions on new centers in the coming years.
Japan has made nuclear energy a national priority since the 1970s.Unlike many major economies,Japan imports eighty percent of its energy.The Nuclear Energy Institute said twenty-nine percent of Japan's electricity came from nuclear sources in 2011.The government planned to increase that to forty percent by 2017.
Nuclear plants supply fourteen percent of global electricity.Nuclear energy is a clean resource,producing no carbon gases.But radioactive waste is a serious unresolved issue.So is the presence of nuclear oower centers in earthquake areas like the one near Bushehr.Iran.
71.Which of the following countries is the least likely to expand its use of nuclear energy?D
A.China.                          B.India.             
C.Iran.                           D.Germany.
72.The government of Japan intended to increase its nuclear energy in 2017 by          compared with 2011.D
A.29%            B.40%            C.69%                  D.11%
73.Which of the following statements about the use of nuclear power in the U.S.is TRUE?D
A.Most of the electricity comes from nuclear energy in the U.S.
B.The Obama government is against building nuclear power plants.
C.A small number of nuclear power plants have been built since 1979.
D.A serious nuclear accident happened in America at the end of the 1970s.
74.What's the main idea of this passage?B
A.The nuclear crisis in Japan has spread to other parts of the world.
B.The situation of the world's nuclear power development after the crisis in Japan
C.Japan's nuclear disaster will slow the expansion of nuclear plants all over the world
D.Japan's nuclear disaster won't affect the nuclear energy production in other countries.
75.From the last sentence of the passage,we can see the writer's attitude toward building a nuclear power plant near Bushehr,Iran isC.     
A.supportive       B.optimistic       C.negative               D.uncertain.
5.If cars had wings,they could fly and that just might happen,beginning in 2011.The company Terrafugia,based in Woburn,Massachusetts,says it plans to deliver its car-plane,the Transition,to customers by the end of 2011.
"It's the next‘wow'vehicle,"said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh."Anybody can buy a Ferrari,but as we say,Ferraris don't fly."
The car plane has wings that unfold for flying-a process the company says takes one minute-and fold back up for driving.A runway is still required to take off and land.
The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies,although it is both.The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations,and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.
The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly.They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports:You drive the car to the airport and then you're good to go.When you land,you fold up the wings and hit the road.There are no expensive parking fees because you don't have to store it at an airport-you park it in the garage at home.
The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000feet.It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430pounds,including fuel and passengers.Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界)conditions.
The Transition's price tag:$194,000,But there may be additional charges for options like a radio,transponder or GPS.Another option is a full-plane parachute.
"If you get into a very awful situation,it  is the necessary safety option,"Gersh said.
So far,the company has more than 70orders with deposits."We're working very closely with them,but there are still some remaining steps,"Brown said.

56.We can learn from the first paragraph thatB.
A.car-planes will be popular in 2011
B.people might drive a car-plane in 2011
