8.Like a good academic,Jean Adilifu did her homework.
The assistant principal for foreign languages at the Medgar Even College Preparatory School in New York had all the data at her fingertips before responding to questions about the recently released China Daily Gallup Poll(民意调查).
"Spanish is the No 1foreign language offered in the schools across the country.French is second and Chinese is third,but growing rapidly."Adilifu added.
In the survey of 2007US citizens and 250opinion leaders,conducted in December,four choices were given to the question,"If you were given a chance to learn a new foreign language,which language would you rather learn?"
Not surprisingly,Spanish was the easy winner with 58percent,but Chinese placed second at 15percent.Arabic was third with 11percent and Japanese followed at 10percent.
This is consistent with the US census data(户口普查资料) from 2010,showing English as the top spoken language in the United States,followed by Spanish and Chinese as the third.
At Adilifu's preparatory school,all sixth grades are required to take Chinese.
Teacher Michael Jiang,who works closely with young children every day,sees the change in how China is viewed.
"In the old times,people looked at China and thought of communism.But today young kids see Chinese and the beauty of the culture."Jiang said.
Adilifu mentioned the exposure of the 2008Beijing Olympics and the positive media description it received as a huge motivation for US understanding of China.Adilifu attended the Games and talked excitedly about the impressive and grand production of the opening and closing ceremonies.
The two-week world event also rid people of the viewpoint of China being a threat(威胁) and helped open up many avenues for the long-isolated(长期孤立的) land.
Strong relations between China and US were either very or somewhat important,said 71percent of the respondents in the survey.
The opinion leaders represented US government officials,think tank leaders,media personnel,CEOs and university staffs.

A.Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen)
The classic love story explores the lives of the five Bennet sisters at the turn of the 19th century in rural England.At that time women were not allowed to get their father's wealth after his death,so their mother is desperate to marry them off into wealthy families.Therefore various love stories start with the question-whether marriage is for love or for money.
B.The Red and the Black (Stendhal)
Julien has a strong desire for power and glory,and for ridding himself of his low social status as the son of a tradesman.Thus,he tries every means to achieve his goal.
The two colors,red and black,symbolize his inner struggle between being sincere and false.And this conflict in his character finally brings about his downfall.
C.Jane Eyre (Charlotte Bronte)
There is great kindness and warmth in this love story.Poor and plain as Jane Eyre is,she has a strong will,sharp wisdom and great courage.She is forced to battle against a harsh employer and a rigid social order.Yet she is never defeated.Standing on her feet,she gains her own happiness in the end.
D.Oliver Twist (Charles Dickens)
It reflects people's tragic life in Britain in the 18th century.In the story,Oliver Twist,a mild young boy,is born in the workhouse and stays there until he is made to leave.What waits for him next is the falseness of the wealthy and the depths to which poverty pushes the human spirit.
E.Gone with the wind (Margaret Mitchell)
This is an all-time best-seller by Margaret Mitchell.The story takes place during the American Civil War.It records the tragic love stories of Katie Scarlet O'Hara,a southern beauty.In the end of the story,Scarlett is left only with her Tara,a plantation which symbolizes the culture of the Old South,a place where she could ever gather her strength.
F.The Adventure of Tom Sawyer (Mark Twain)
Tom Sawyer,a naughty boy in the quiet town of St.Petersburg,unexpectedly witnesses the murder of Dr.Robinson.At first he is frightened and keeps it a secret.But at the trial of the case,he bravely exposes the real criminal.He and his friend start tracing the escaping murderer.Finally they find his dead body together with hidden treasures.

6.Hawaii is an important trading center and about six million tourists visit there every year.With all that traffic in and out,exotic species(外来物种)have plenty of opportunities to reach the islands.According to biologists,exotic species are the number one threat to the state's economy,environment,and way of life.
The question in Hawaii is,can the invaders be stopped?
Quarantines are one way to do this.Quarantine is the process of isolating animals or products.In Hawaii,pet dogs and cats coming into the state remain in a special holding facility for four months to make sure they don't have rabies(狂犬病) Many agricultural products are also quarantined to see if they are carrying insect pests or plant diseases.
Inspection is a second way to stop biological invaders.At airports,borders,and shipping ports,inspectors examine passengers and their baggage to see if they are carrying exotic species.The inspectors also destroy fruits,vegetables,or other goods that might be carrying harmful pests or diseases.Specially trained dogs also smell goods in the ship for exotic species.
What if an exotic species slips by inspectors?Then efforts are made to control the invader.In Hawaii,government agencies control invaders by setting  livetraps around wildlife shelters and other places.At Haleakala National Park employees have built miles of fences to keep out exotic pigs and goats.For years these animals ate and walked over native rain forest plants,hut the fences have helped reverse(逆 转)this damage.Now native plants grow in places that were bare rock only a short time ago.
In some cases biological control helps to solve the exotic species problems.It is the science of controlling one invader with another.In the early 1900s,several exotic predators(肉食动物) were imported to Hawaii to eat a harmful exotic pest called the sugarcane leafhopper.The insect was destroying 70,000 tons of sugar a year,but the predators brought it under control.
The efforts of these scientists and other people are vitally important.In Hawaii alone,10,000 different species of native plants and animals still need to be protected.Many of these are found nowhere else on earth.By stopping the spread of the biological invaders,we not only protect ourselves,but we also protect the many other native species that make our planet such a special place to live.
63.This passage is mainly aboutA.
A.the methods for preventing exotic species
B.the effects of exotic invasion on Hawaii
C.the problems faced by the Hawaiian economy
D.the role of biologists in controlling native species
64.Hawaii is at a great risk of invasion by exotic species,becauseC.

A.Animals and products are put in quarantines before entering Hawaii.
B.Trained dogs are used to examine passengers and their baggage.
C.Livetraps and fences are set to protect exotic pigs and goats.
D.Some exotic predators are imported to destroy invaders'food.
66.What argument does the author make in the last paragraph?B
A.Hawaii has the most unknown species of plants on earth.
B.Humans have a responsibility to control exotic species.
C.Scientists make the difference to the species protection.
D.Species should be allowed to exist without human interruption.
5.They may be just passing your office,computer bag slung (悬挂) over one shoulder.Or they may be sitting in a car outside it,causally tapping away at a laptop.They look like innocent passers-by.In fact,they are stealing your corporate secrets.
Drive-by hacking is the trendy term given to the practice of breaking into wireless computer networks from outside the buildings that house them.A recent study in the UK,sponsored by RSA Data Security,found that two-thirds of organizations with wireless networks were risking their data in this way.Security experts patrolled (巡逻) several streets in the City of London seeking evidence of wireless networks in operation.
Of 124 that they identified,83 were sending data without encrypting(加密) them.Such data could readily be picked up by a passer-by armed only with a portable computer,a wireless modem and a few pieces of software that can be freely downloaded from the Internet.
The data could include sensitive company documents containing valuable information.Or they could be e-mail identities and passwords that could be used by hackers to log into corporate networks as if they were legal users.
Most companies using wireless networking technology do not take even the simplest of measures to protect their data.Nearly all wireless network technology comes with some basic security features that need only to be activated (激活) in order to give a minimum level of security,for example,by encrypting the data being passed over the network.
Raymon Kruck,business development manager at Check Point Software,a security technology specialist,believes this could be partly a psychological problem.People see the solid walls of their building as safeguards and forget that wireless networks can extend up to 200 meters beyond physical walls.
Companies without any security at all on their wireless networks make it ridiculously easy for hackers to break in.Switching on the security that comes with the network technology should be automatic.Then there are other basic steps a company can take,says Mr.Kruck,such as changing the passwords on the network from the default (默认) setting.
Companies can also install firewalls,which form a barrier between the internal network and the public Internet.They should also check their computer records regularly to spot any abnormal activity,which might betray the presence of a hacker.
41.According to the study sponsored by RSA Data Security,two thirds of the subjectsC.
A.had most of their company data stolen   
B.depended on wireless computer networks
C.were exposed to drive-by hacking       
D.were unaware of the risk of wireless hacking
42.Whichof the following is NOT considered in the study?A
A.The number of computer hacking incidents.
B.The number of wireless computer networks identified.
C.The way in which data are sent and received.

E.History of Harvest Festival.
F.When is Harvest Festival?

76.D
In England,we have given thanks for successful harvests since pagan times.We celebrate this day by singing,praying and decorating our churches with baskets of fruit and food in a festival known as"Harvest Festival",usually during the month of September.Harvest Festival reminds Christians of all the good things God gives them.This makes them want to share with others who are not so fortunate.
77.F
Harvest festivals are traditionally held on or near the Sunday of the Harvest Moon.This moon is the full moon which falls in the month of September,at or around the time of the Autumnal Equinox,about Sept.23.Unlike the USA and Canada,the UK does not have a national holiday for Harvest Festival.
78.E
Harvest Festival used to be celebrated at the beginning of the Harvest season on 1st August and was called Lammas,meaning"loaf Mass".Farmers made loaves of bread from the new wheat crop and gave them to their local church.They were then used as the Communion bread during a special mass thanking God for the harvest.The custom ended when Henry VIII broke away from the Catholic Church,and nowadays we have harvest festivals at the end of the season.
79.B
The tradition of celebrating Harvest Festival in churches as we know it today began in 1843,when the Reverend Robert Hawker invited parishioners to a special thanksgiving service for the harvest at his church at Morwenstow in Cornwall.Victorian hymns such as"We plough the fields and scatter","Come ye thankful people,come"and"All things bright and beautiful"helped popularise his idea of harvest festival and spread the annual custom of decorating churches with home-grown produce for the Harvest Festival service.
80.A
The making of corn dollies goes back many thousands of years.It was a Pagan custom and evolved from the beliefs of the corn growing people who believed in the Corn Spirit.Corn dollies were made at Harvest time from the last sheaf of corn cut.The Corn Spirit was supposed to live or be reborn in the plaited straw ornament or corn doll and was kept until the following spring to ensure a good harvest.The corn dolly often had a place of honour at the harvest banquet table.
20.A refrigerator of the future that tells you what to cook with your leftovers and automatically re-orders fresh food is being designed m the UK.The self-cleaning"refrigerator of the future"will automatically place supermarket home delivery orders when required and move food near its use by date to the front of the shelves.
         Researchers hope the fridge could clean itself,cut down on wasted food and offer up recipes,which could be tailored to different countries,cuisines and seasons (调味品).With the British spending 36 million hours on extra-hour work every year,leaving little time for housework,the refrigerator could help save time during busy modern-day lives.These new developments are oh the way thanks to combined efforts between scientists at the University of Central Lancashire and online supermarket Ocado.
         The planned new qualities include the ability for refrigerators to scan their shelves to see what is in store and use this information to both plan meals and automatically place a supermarket food order.
         The smart fridge will use"nano-articulated(纳米) technology"shelf surfaces,smooth to the touch.The shelf surfaces will have millions of independently controlled micro-tiles (小瓷格) which will move products which soon need to be eaten to the front of the refrigerator.Ultrasound-scanning technology built into the door will allow the refrigerator to"look through"the food on a plate before and after mealtime,meaning it can assess what type and amount of food is wasted.
         Dr Simon Somerville,an expert from the University of Central Lancashire,said."Cookbooks are lists of food items.For this purpose the most available information that the refrigerator will have is a set of arrangements that allow a set number of ingredients(佐料) to produce a large number of quite different dishes.The key concept in the successful accomplishment of this process is accurate list tracking (跟踪)."
