The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours．

The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival．

“For the first time，I feel home is not that far away after all，”said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family．

The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago，and he has now settled in Urumqi．

The 1,776-km line，which passes through Qinghai province and is the country’s first high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region，came into service on Dec 26．

“We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season，”Liang said．“Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes，so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip．”

More than 600，000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month，and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season．

The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang’s development．All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link，leaving the old one to be used for goods．As a result，Xinjiang’s annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million．

The line passes through areas that experience high winds，and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert．

The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad，said Ma Xi zhang，director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project’s_management department in Xinjiang.

1.How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?

A．about 12 hours． B．About 6 hours．

C．About 18 hours． D．About 24 hours．

2.What’s the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?

A．It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou．

B．It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang．

C．All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals．

D．It helps to improve Xinjiang’s development．

3.From the passage we can learn________.

A．Xinjiang’s annual goods ability can increase nearly four times

B．the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad

C．the high-speed railway lines can’t be built across the bone-dry sands

D．the old railway lines can only carry goods now

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A．The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home．

B．The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods．

C．Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou．

D．Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before．

In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theater in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.

At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theater groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.

Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theater by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.

Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theater,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theater groups performing,some said it was getting too big.

A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.

1.What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?

Dear Jim,

Thank you for your last letter telling me your recently news. I'd like to tell you something about our school sports meeting. It was holding on October,20th, which was a fine day.

There were over 1,600 students and teachers attend it. Wang Lin, a student from my class won the 100-meter race. He finishes the race in 11.2 seconds and broke down the school record. They were all very excited. The sports meeting was great success. That was why we were all making every effort to our class honor. Although I was not one of the winner, I was proud of what we had done.

Looking forward to receiving your letter.

Yours,Li Pi

C. Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.

D. One tree does not make a forest.

It was a dark, wet November morning. It seemed like it would take a million years to get to summer again. I thought bears have got it right---- what a perfect idea to sleep through the worst part of the year and wake up when spring comes!

“Want some words of affirmation(肯定)?” a coworker, seeing my mood, kindly suggested. “You don’t think they would cheer you up?”

“Today? No.” I shook my head.

“I used to think so too,” he said, “until I realized the effect my words had on a certain person. Well, it was someone I knew pretty well. I have to say I treated him rather badly.”

“You? But you are always so positive! How did you treat him badly?”

“I told him I did not like anything about him, really. I told him I did not even like his name. In fact, it wasn’t only what I said. I also did pretty bad things to him. When he was hungry, I did not give him the chance to eat proper food. When he felt like doing something fun, I said to him that he was being childish and having fun was not productive (有成果的). And worst of all, when he was sick and needed care, I did not care. I told him to get up and get to work. And when he did, I never told him he did good work. You could say I was ashamed of him,” he said. “I wanted to get rid of him because he just wasn’t good enough for me---but couldn’t.”

“But that was heartless!”

He nodded. “Then one day it all changed. I stood there in front of the bathroom mirror one morning. I saw the dark circles under his eyes, I saw the excess (过量的) weight. I saw the hair that needed cutting. And I saw the eyes that once had looked at the world eagerly. Now they were so sad and tired. And there and then I realized he deserved better. So I told the man I had disliked for so many years that he was a good person after all.”

My jaw (下巴) dropped. I looked at him---full of positive energy, in good shape, always ready to encourage others.

“Wow…”

He winked (眨眼) at me. “So how about having a little positive conversation with the bathroom mirror? The person in there has the greatest effect on you!”

It’s great pleasure for me to make a speech here. With a new term come , we are happy to be back at school and hope to see our school taken on a new look. To keep our school beautiful , we should avoid such behavior as spitting, littering, and scribbling in public places. Occasionally, some of us may talk loudly, quarreling with others or even do dangerous things, all of them can harm to the harmonious atmosphere of our school.

As we know, civilized behavior is great importance. It not only shows our good qualities but also make us live and study happily at school, so we should obey the school rules and behave good. Only by doing so we live a more comfortable life on campus.
