13．（61）Finally（Final） about 2.6 million years ago some small clever animals，now with hands and feet，appeared and （62）spread（spread） all over the earth．Thus they have，in （63）their（they） turn，become the most important animals on the planet．（64）Butthey are not looking after the earth very well．They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere，（65）which prevents heat from （66）escaping（escape） the earth into space．As（67）aresult of this，many（68）scientists（scientist） believe the earth may become too hot to live on．So（69）whetherlife will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can （70）be solved（solve）．
12．There were smiling children all the way．Charily they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway，wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang．Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives．This is the simple village people of Malaysia．I was moved．
I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car，so this was the first time I was on a train．I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread．I looked about the train．There was not one familiar face．I sighed and sat down to read my Economics．
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia．Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore，so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past．As we went beyond the city，I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green．Then the first village came into sight．Immediately I came alive； I decided to wave back．
From then on my journey became interesting．I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life．Then everything came alive．The mountains seemed to speak to me．Even the trees were smiling．I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time．
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry．I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3：00 pm．Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth．I looked at the people all around me．They all looked beautiful．When my uncle waved with a smile，I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug （拥抱）．I had never done this before．He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile．We walked arm in arm to his car．
I looked forward to the return journey．

10．Deep Springs is an American college．It is （61）an unusual college．It is high in the White Mountains in California not in college town．The campus is a （62）collection（collect） of old buildings with no beautiful classrooms．The only college-like thing about Deep Springs is（63）its library．Students can borrow from the 17，000books 24hours a day．The library is never（64）crowded（crowd）  as there are only 24excellent boy students at the college． And there are only 5professors．These teachers believe （65）inthe idea of the college．They are not well paid．In fact，their salaries are （66）onlyabout 9，000dollars a year．The college gives the teachers and students something（67）more important than money．There is no place like Deep Springs．Students（68）learning/who are learning （learn） there cannot run away from problems because there is no place（69）to escape （escape ） to．At most colleges students can close their books and go to a film．They can go out to restaurants or to parties，but the students in Deep Springs have （70）completely （complete） different activities．They can talk to each other or their teachers．They might go out for a walk in the desert．Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas．There is not even a television set on the campus．
9．Today，we tell about the expression apple-pie order．It means in perfect order，very well organized．（36）G
Some say that Scottish and English writers use the expression a long time ago．Others say it was first used in the northeastern American state-New England．（37）F Then they filled pie pans with them in an organized way-row upon row．This perhaps explains why it's believed to begin in New England．
Another old expression describes the opposite condition-chaos．That expression is apple of discord（不和）．It comes from ancient mythology（神话）．It says that all the gods and goddesses were celebrating the marriage of Thetis and Peleus．One of the gods，Discord，a troublemaker，threw a golden apple on the table to be given as a prize to the most beautiful goddess．It was not an easy decision to make．（38）E He decided to give it to Venus．Juno and Minerva were very angry and threatened him．This，the myth says，began the Trojan War．
At one time the tomato was called a love apple．That was a mistake．（39）B In the sixteenth century，Spain imported tomato form south America．Spain then exported tomato to Morocco．Italian traders carried it onto Italy．The Italian name for tomato was pomo de Mauro，apple of the Moores．When French growers imported it from Italy，they thought de Mauro meant d'amour，the French word for love，and so pomme d'amour became the apple of love．
（40）COne belief is that it has great powers of keeping people healthy．A very common expression is"an apple a day keeps the doctor away"．Another belief is based on fact：one rotten apple spoils the barrel．The expression has come to mean that one bad person in a group can cause everyone to act bad．

A．Everyone present had the right to vote．
B．This is how the mistake happened．
C．People believe many things about the apple．
D．There are also many stories about the apple．
E．Paris was given the task of deciding．
F．The housewives there cut their apples in even slices．
G．Nobody is sure where and when the expression began．
8．Around one in a hundred deaths worldwide is due to passive smoking，which kills about  600，000people a year，World Health Organization （WHO） researchers said on Friday．
In the first study to assess the global impact of second-hand smoke，WHO experts found that children are more heavily exposed to second-hand smoke than any other age-group，and around 165，000of them a year die because of it．
"Two-thirds of these deaths occur in Africa and south Asia，"the researchers，led by Annette Pruss-Ustun of the WHO in Geneva，wrote in their study．
Children's exposure to second-hand smoke is most likely to happen at home，and the double effect of infectious diseases （传染性疾病） and tobacco"seems to be a deadly causes for children in these regions，"they said．
While deaths due to passive smoking in children were more likely to happen in poor and middle-income countries，deaths in adults were spread across countries at all income levels．In Europe's high-income countries，only 71child deaths occurred，while 35，388deaths were in adults．Yet in the countries assessed in Africa，about 43，375deaths due to passive smoking were in children compared with 9，514in adults．
Pruss-Ustun urged countries to enforce the WHO's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control，which includes higher tobacco taxes （税收），and advertising bans，among other steps．
"Policy-makers should bear in mind that enforcing complete smoke-free laws will probably reduce the number of deaths due to exposure to second-hand smoke within the first year of its implementation（执行），with accompanying reduction in costs of illness in social and health systems，"she wrote．
Only 7.4percent of the world population currently lives in areas with comprehensive smoke-free laws，and those laws are not always strongly enforced．
In places where there are smoke-free rules，research shows that exposure to second hand smoke in high-risk places like bars and restaurants can be cut by 90percent，and in general by 60percent，the researchers said．Studies also show such laws help to reduce the number of cigarettes smoked by smokers and lead to higher success rates in those trying to quit．
28．Where do children most likely suffer the exposure to second-hand smoke？B
A．In their schools．
B．In their homes．
C．In bars and restaurants．
D．In disease-infected areas．
29．Apart from passive smoking，what is also responsible for the high death rate of African and South Asian children？D
A．Long-term starvation                 
B．Active smoking
C．Poor parental care                   
D．Infectious diseases
30．According to the passage，death in children due to passive smokingD．
A．is partly attributable to their active use of tobacco．
B．is similar in countries at all income levels
C．is controlled in some South Asian countries
D．is low in high-income countries．
31．In the last few paragraphs，the author implies that smoke-free lawsC．
A．have worked reasonably well so far．
B．leave much to be expected．
C．should be enforced strongly                  
D．should be made carefully．

5．A Lesson in Caring
It was a cold evening．My daughter and I were walking up Broadway．I didn't notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box．But Nora （36）A．She wasn't even four，but she（37）A  at my coat and said，"That man's cold．Daddy，can we take him home？"
I don't remember my（38）C．But I do remember a sudden（39）B feeling inside me．I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her（40）D，whether it was birds flying or children playing．But now she was noticing（41）D and beggary．
A few days later，I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and （42）A it to an elderly person．I signed us up．Nora was （43）C about it．She could understand the importance of food，so she could easily see how （44）B our job was．When Sunday came，she was ready，but I had to （45）D myself to leave the house to fetch the food package．On my way to the school，I fought a（n）（46）A to turn back．The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home．Why do this？（47）B，we phoned the elderly person we'd been appointed．She （48）C us right over．
The building was in a bad state．A silver-haired woman in an old dress received us．Nora ran inside．I （49）B followed．However，when we talked，I was moved by her struggle against the hard life and realized what our little help meant to her．When the time came to say goodbye，we three hugged．I walked home （50）A，touched．
Professionals call such a （51）D"a volunteer opportunity"．They are opportunities and I've come to see．（52）B else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something （53）C that's good for others as well as for yourself？Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and（54）A clothes for the homeless．Yet，as I've （55）C her grow over these past four years，I still wonder-which of us has benefited more？

4．Mary，the daughter of my friend，was going to university next year．She is kind-hearted （41）B just a bit shy．When her birthday was around the corner I found out she was feeling a bit（42）A and lonely．Her family is quite small and finances are tight，so perhaps there wouldn't be any birthday （43）C．
