8．Below is a passage adapted from the network edition of China Daily．
Event

Li Yang，one of China's most famous English teachers，apologized for beating his American wife more than a week after she posted photos of her injuries on the web and set off a bomb of criticism．
"I wholeheartedly apologize to my wife Kim and my girls for committing domestic violence．This has caused them serious physical and mental damage，"Li said on his microblog at Weibo．com，the country's most popular social media site，on Saturday．Li，42，is a mechanics major but is best known for his"Crazy English，"a popular method of language learning that involves yelling at the top of one's lungs．
He was at the center of public criticism after his wife Kim Lee put up posts on the web accusing him of abuse，showing her swollen forehead and knees．

@Xuemanzi，angel investor
Anti-domestic violence laws should be made as soon as possible，giving protection to the rights of women and children lawfully．Police should not stand back from domestic violence any longer，even if no one reports them．Society，as a whole，should attach greater importance to the crime．
@Zhangxiaomei
Chinese are never taught about marital（婚姻的） relations，which mean not merely living together．A good marriage needs to overcome three differences：family background，gender and personalities．In addition to these，there is cultural gap in Li Yang's case．If the effects of these differences are not well understood，after the honeymoon period，they will turn into conflicts and endanger the marriage．Li's domestic violence is a reminder that China needs such education．
@Wuxiaolong，Sina Weibo user
Li Yang's choice to resort to domestic violence really reflects his character．Students who have attended his Crazy English Camp may know what I mean：Li wants his students to worship him as an idol．I still remember he once had his students kowtow（叩头） to him．He always teaches English by imposition（权威强制），which directly reflects his desire for power．
@Sikaozhe，Sina Weibo user
In the US，the punishments for domestic violence are even more severe than stealing．If the police arrive at the wife's call during a fighting between a couple and find injuries on her，they will immediately arrest the husband．Even if the wife doesn't call the police，they may also show up as neighbors could well do their part．
@ykxin Sina Weibo User
Don't blindly worship anyone，because in every closet there may hide a skeleton．As a famous Chinese saying goes，"Only they who do well in their daily routine tasks can fulfills their dreams on great occasions"．Not surprisingly，one who focuses too much on his career and ignores his family，like Li Yang，will fail in both．Don't judge a person by his career success，wealth，or any other material aspect，because what finally decides a person is his character．

Aftermath（余波）

Although Li Yang publicly apologized to his wife，promising to love his daughters even if he and Lee divorce，the damage，perhaps permanently，has been done to his wife，his three daughters and the whole family．
Wang Xingjuan，founder of the Maple Women's Psychological Consulting Center，a non-profit organization，said nearly half of domestic violence abusers are people who have higher education，senior jobs and social status．She said this was probably because such people were usually under more mental stress．

A．laws should be passed to protect women and children

Skunk Scooters
100Caldwell Street
Omaha，NE 68102
To Whom It May Concern：
On August 27，2011，I ordered a Skunk Scooter from your website．I was very excited when the motorcycle arrived because I bought it with the money I saved from doing part-time jobs over the summer vacation．Unfortunately，I have experienced several problems with my Skunk Scooter．
First of all，the front wheel always shakes from side to side，making the scooter difficult to control．Also，it makes an unpleasant sound as the wheel works．The sound is much louder than a car engine．The instructions say we should tighten the screws （螺丝）．My mom and I did that．However，it did not help at all．
In addition，something is wrong with the handlebars （手把）．According to your website，they can be easily raised to a height of thirty-six inches．This does not seem to be true of the Skunk Scooter I received．The handlebars are set at thirty inches，and they cannot be raised or lowered．It appears that the knob （球形把手） that is used to change the height is pushed into the handlebars，which makes it impossible to turn in either direction．It is extremely uncomfortable to ride the motorbike with its handlebars in such a low position．
Although you advertised the Skunk Scooter as"the quickest，coolest scooter on the planet，"it makes me feel very disgruntled．I am expecting that the repair of the scooter would be done at the earliest or else I want my money back．I know that you would not want customers to keep broken products．Therefore，I would like to thank you in advance for taking the trouble to solve the problem．
Sincerely，
Natasha Greene

4．They're WILD animals
By Ernst-Ulrich Franzen
March 11，2010 （3）Comments
The story about the woman who lost some fingers while feeding a bear at a zoo in Manitowoc，after she ignored warnings and barriers（栅栏），reminded me of the story I heard about a couple who put their baby on the back of a wild horse in South Dakota to get a really cute picture．We all do silly things at times-no one is immune-but treating wild animals as lovely pets has to fall into a special category．Teddy bears and Disney movies aren't actually representative of real bears．

Don't you think that maybe，just maybe some alcohol was involved？
2．tk421-Mar 11，2010 11：09AM
It was already approved that alcohol was involved．Stories that begin with a drunk person saying"Hey，I got an idea，watch this!"rarely end well．
3．Tristan Kloss-Mar 11，2010 11：41AM
Alcohol certainly isn't involved when people decide to keep"pets"like chimpanzees，baby tigers，etc．Stupidity，definitely．Dogs are pets because of thousands of years of domestication．Even farm animals，which have been kept by humans for thousands of years as well，aren't let in the house．So why keep animals that treat human contact with，at best，indifference（冷淡、不在乎） and，at worst，violence？

39．In Ernst-Ulrich Franzen's opinion，the woman lost her fingers becauseC．
A．the zoo keepers didn't warn her of the danger
B．she didn't know the bear was a wild animal
C．she was somehow influenced by cartoon characters
D．she climbed over the barriers and angered the bear
40．TosaLeft thinks the wounded womanA．
A．may have been drunk
B．may be a little stupid
C．was addicted to wine
D．fed wine to the bear
41．tk421means a drunk personB．
A．should be forbidden to enter the zoo
B．usually gets himself into trouble
C．is often fond of making up stories
D．usually likes to show himself off
42．What does Tristan Kloss think of people treating wild animals as pets？D
A．Kind．
B．Illegal．
