明星、名人户籍移民动了谁的奶酪
近日，众多明星、名人移民国外的新闻在网民中引起了不小的震动：喜剧小品演员赵本山及家人移民加拿大已获批准，甚至有网友爆料郎朗已加入美国国籍……
对于举家移民加拿大的传言，正在拍摄新剧《关东大先生》的赵本山予以了正式否认，他说：“如果有媒体非要说我移民的话，那我就只好说，沈阳到北京，北京到沈阳，在国内移民，我的根在中国。”
钢琴家郎朗随即在博客中发表声明，否认加入美国国籍。在日志《我永远为我是中国人而感到骄傲》中，他表示对于自己被传出加入美国国籍这件事觉得很诧异。他透露“曾经有好些国家邀请我加入他们的国籍，我都婉言谢绝，我一直认为拥有中国国籍，持有中国护照是最大的骄傲。”随后，他还上传了刚更新的中国护照的照片以证明自己并未更改国籍。
明星、名人移民早已不是新鲜事，但是网民对此的反应却依然异常激烈。网上有一项“你能接受中国明星加入外国国籍吗”的民意调查，支持明星加入外国国籍的人寥寥可数。据悉，明星移民国外一般都出于三方面的现实考虑：一是享受国外高福利待遇，二是为孩子将来考虑，三是为了逃税。
分析
首先，公民选择国籍是法律赋予的合法权利，我们应该予以尊重。其次，考虑到不断有明星、名人选择户籍移民，我们是不是应该问一声究竟是为什么？谴责明星、名人移民的网民，是不是都有狭隘的民族主义思想呢？一个国家一个民族，绝不会因为走了几个明星、名人而损失半点的尊严和骄傲。伟大和辉煌是建立在所有国民不断追求梦想的共同努力之上的，绝不是某一小部分人的个人成就促成的。
适用话题 盲目跟风、爱国、尊重、狭隘
陈云林访台
开启两岸和平发展新航船
2008年11月3日至7日，海协会会长陈云林及海协会协商代表团赴台访问获得了巨大成功。
陈云林会长抵台后，以“情感的连接”这个主题作为开端，在圆山大饭店拉开了访台序幕。其后他又以“历史的传承”为主题进行了首场重要活动，在拜会前海基会董事长辜振甫遗孀辜严倬云的过程中，中华文化的厚重得到了凸显。而四项协议的签署，则为两会协商画上了圆满的句号，达成了最后“双赢的成果”。并给两岸的交流带来了新的契机。两岸同胞渴望了三十年的通航、通邮将变为现实，“大三通”时代的到来即将把人们带入“一日生活圈”，使两岸真正实现“千里一日还”。“大三通”大大节约了两岸往来的时间，对两岸经济的发展都有着十分重大的意义。这是两岸制度化协商的新起点，它开启了两会制度化协商的新里程，为两岸的关系和谐发展迈出了重要一步。
分析
陈云林访台不仅促进了两岸经济的发展，为两岸同胞谋福祉，更加强了海峡两岸的紧密联系。两岸“三通”是大势所趋，而陈云林作为和平使者自当顺势而为。
适用话题 交流与合作、互利双赢、求同存异、心愿、期待、和平与发展
“玩游戏成瘾”正式纳入
精神病诊断范畴
网络成瘾是指由于个体过度使用网络导致的一种精神行为障碍，患者会对使用网络产生强烈的欲望，突然停止或减少使用网络时会出现烦躁、注意力不集中、睡眠障碍等症状。按照《网络成瘾诊断标准》，网络成瘾分为网络游戏成瘾、网络色情成瘾、网络关系成瘾、网络信息成瘾、网络交易成瘾五类。
对绝大多数网络游戏迷来说，游戏只是游戏。但是，玩网络游戏上瘾，甚至到了难以与真实世界相区分的程度，就是一种病态。
我国从1994年开始重视成瘾医学的研究和预防。除了网络成瘾，赌博成瘾、工作成瘾、购物成瘾、饮食成瘾、性成瘾、烟酒成瘾等都是成瘾疾病。其中，网络成瘾的患者人数最多，很多患者到了难以把网络世界与现实世界区分的程度。据北京公安部门统计，青少年犯罪中76%的人都是网络成瘾患者。
《网络成瘾诊断标准》的确立，明确了网络成瘾患者应该由拥有精神科的医疗单位收治，为这些患者得到科学有效治疗提供了途径。专家介绍，网络成瘾的一般治疗时间为3个月左右，80%的患者都可以通过治疗摆脱瘾病。
分析
对任何一件事物产生严重的精神依赖都会产生一定的负面效果。国家出台的《网络成瘾诊断标准》不仅明确了网络成瘾的危害，还提供了科学的治疗方案。这对患有网瘾的孩子来说，真是一个好消息。
适用话题 网络的两面性、自我控制、诱惑、事物的联系、精神依赖
?：一张笑着的苦脸
最近一期的台湾综艺节目《康熙来了》，主题是“没听过?，就落伍了”――环顾四周，白领们、网友们、“80后”“90后”们，都把这个“?”字挂在嘴边。漫画人物张小盒的形象代言人、“一日一?”的制作人、《办公室有鬼之盒子门》的编剧、赏析过无数?文学、?影视作品的评论家……他们异口同声地说：?，无处不在啊。
?，这是一个新造的字吗？用拼音能打出来吗？是网络符号吗？本身有意义吗？其实，早在甲骨文中已有“?”字，古人认为它像窗口一样能透过阳光(古代的雕花窗，不似今天这般方方正正)，所以用它代指“光明”。但它的发扬光大要归功于网友，是他们最早把它用于QQ、MSN等聊天工具上，用它代表一种心情：无奈、尴尬、郁闷、悲愤等等。如果把“?”字当成一张人脸，那么“八”就是两道因悲伤和沮丧而下垂的眉毛，“口”则是张口结舌的那张嘴。当一个人说“我很?”的时候，可以想象他的那副表情完全和“?”一样。加上“?”的发音和窘迫的“窘”完全一致，简直再完美不过了。
分析
“?”字如同其他网络符号一样，是社会发展和互联网的产物。它如今已渗透到现实生活中，对人们的生活产生了一定的影响。
适用话题 网络文化、表情、潮流、新兴事物
智慧之光
芒刺上的花丛
面对2008年的北京奥运会，许多商家都看到了其中所蕴藏的无限商机。耐克公司瞅准了许多有望夺冠的知名运动员，并期望通过他们的“金牌效应”来拉动商机。
中国“飞人”刘翔就是耐克公司重点打造的产品形象代言人，他们为刘翔专门设计了一种“战靴”。这双“战靴”能刘翔能的成绩提高0.02秒！另外，他们得知刘翔每次比赛，搭上鞋面的粘贴带都是起跑前的最后一个动作，于是，他们如法炮制了保留了粘贴带的细节，而且做得更加完美。
万事齐备，一切只待发令枪打响的那一刻。哪知道，
对于耐克公司来说，这无疑将是一个晴天霹雳。那一刻，许多人断言，以耐克为首的诸多广告商肯定要崩溃。没有想到的是，就在刘翔宣布因伤退赛过后的12小时左右左右，耐克公司就发表了官方声明：“刘翔一直是中国最杰出的田径运动员。耐克为能与刘翔紧密合作而感到自豪。此时，我们理解他的感受，并期待他伤愈复出。”继而，耐克公司的创意人员以刘翔退赛为题材，设计制作了一则主题为“爱运动，即使它伤了你的心”的平面广告，这则广告伴随着各报社“刘翔退赛”的头条消息，出现在了各地区的主要都市报的头版位置。广告上写着：“爱比赛/爱拼上所有的尊严/爱把它再赢回来/爱付出一切/爱荣耀/爱挫折/爱运动/即使它伤了你的心。”广告词恢宏大气，鼓舞人心，不仅安慰了代言人刘翔，而且表达了坚信刘翔一定能够东山再起的意思。
据耐克公司的负责人介绍，该创意广告推出以后，耐克体育用品的销量不仅没有因“刘翔退赛”而减少，反倒大幅度上升！
分析
代言人突遭事故，这对大多数商家来说无疑是一种致命的打击。然而，耐克公司不但没有在这片“荆棘地”里摔跟头，反倒拨开困窘的“芒刺”，在艰难的“荆棘地”里开出轻松绚烂的“花”来。这就是耐克人的智慧。
适用话题 智慧、危机处理能力、反败为胜、创意
换个盘子卖鸡蛋
美国摩根财团的创始人摩根，当年从欧洲漂泊到美国时，穷得只有一条裤子，后来，夫妻俩好不容易才开了一家卖鸡蛋的小店，但身高体壮的摩根卖鸡蛋远不及身材瘦小的妻子。摩根觉得很奇怪，后来他终于弄明白了原委。原来当他用手掌托着蛋时，由于手掌太大，人们眼睛的视觉误差会觉得鸡蛋变小了，而他的太太用纤细的小手拾蛋给顾客时，鸡蛋被纤细的小手一衬托，居然显得大些。
于是摩根立即改变了卖鸡蛋的方式。他把蛋放在一个浅而小的拖盘里，这样人们对比看来，就会觉得蛋很大，因此蛋的销售情况果然好了起来。
但摩根并不因此满足。他认为眼睛的视觉误差既然能影响销售，那么经营的学问就更大了。这激发了他对心理学、经营学、管理学等等的研究和探讨，终于创建了摩根财团。
分析
摩根的成功，得益于他的思考与分析，得益于他对诸多领域的研究与探讨。换个盘子卖鸡蛋，其实就是换个角度搞经营。我们的人生也需要“多种经营”，而经营需要的是学问。
适用话题 思考与分析、换个角度、经营生活
爱心传奇
把家人装在心里
卡特德拉尔是阿根廷一个非常美丽的自然景点，但是，人们想去那里观光旅游的话，必须要开车经过一段山间公路。这段公路弯道众多，经常发生交通事故，因此被人称为“死亡之路”。
当地的交通部门曾经采取过很多措施，但是，交通事故依旧频频发生。然而，难题最终被一个叫戈麦斯的老司机解决了。戈麦斯开车40多年，不仅没有发生过一起交通事故，甚至连一次违章的记录都没有。退休前，他所在的公司联合当地的交通管理部门为他颁发了文明驾驶模范奖章。颁奖的那天，记者采访了他。当问到为什么他一辈子都没出现过事故时，戈麦斯答道：“开车时想想你的老婆在家等你吃晚饭，想想你的孩子还要你陪他去学校，想想白发苍苍的父母到了需要你照顾的时候，你就会时刻提醒自己小心驾驶。”
卡特德拉尔交通部门负责人在报纸上看到了这则采访报道，深受启发。不久，经过“死亡之路”的司机们发现，这里的提示标语换了新颜。一块块提示牌上写的都是温馨祝福，比如“你的平安是对家人最好的爱”……令人感到神奇的是，自从在“死亡之路”竖起了这些温馨的提示牌后，事故发生率大幅度下降，2006年和2007年两年的时间里，甚至一起交通事故也没有发生过。
分析
把家人装在心里，这就是戈麦斯创造奇迹的原因。人生之旅中，把家人、他人放在心里，多一些爱意，多一份责任，这于人于己，都是一种福祉。
适用话题 家人、奇迹、爱、责任、自我与他人
别让爱心成为败笔
布鲁斯南是爱尔兰一位著名的富商，多年来，他一直热心于慈善事业。为使故乡的人民过上好日子，拥有亿万资产的布鲁斯南每年都会拿出一大笔钱给当地的索陀曼人,支持故乡的经济发展。但令布鲁斯南郁闷的是，十年来，他为故乡捐献了三千万美元，索陀曼人却依旧清贫。
这天，布鲁斯南在巴西的里约热内卢散心。他走在海滩上，一不小心踩进了一个水洼里，一群小海蟹纷纷爬出来。布鲁斯南随手抓起一只小海蟹，问一旁陪同的导游：“这只海蟹怎么这么小？”导游告诉他：“这种蟹叫寄居蟹，它们寄居在岸边的浅水里，大海每次涨潮都会带给它们一点食物，于是只要有定期的潮水，它们就会赖在岸边不回大海。由于浅水里的食物时断时续，它们的生活总是处于饥一顿饱一顿的状态，因此这种蟹很难长大。但是一到枯水期，它们得不到食物，就会拼命爬回大海，最终也能长成一只很大的海蟹。”
听完导游的介绍，布鲁斯南陷入了沉思，联想到自己多年来一直资助的索陀曼人，他恍然大悟，原来自己的爱心竟成了索陀曼人走向富裕的绊脚石，是时候结束这一切了。回到爱尔兰后，布鲁斯南决定不再为索陀曼人捐献一分钱，他致信索陀曼人的酋长：“我已经没有能力再为你们做什么了，但我希望故乡的亲人们能够早日过上幸福的生活，我在爱尔兰为你们祝福！”
五年后，索陀曼人果然富了起来，他们种植的山果被运到全国各地和东欧的一些国家及地区。昔日贫困的山村成了爱沙尼亚著名的“水果之乡”。十多年后，布鲁斯南应邀回故乡参观，感慨甚多。当酋长问他当初为什么突然中断对故乡的捐赠时，布鲁斯南语重心长地说：“因为我不想我的亲人们变成‘寄居蟹’。”
分析
奉献爱心是值得赞扬的，但需要警惕的是――在你捐赠爱心的时候，一定不要让接受捐赠的任何一个人变成“寄居蟹”。如果有人因为你的爱心而变成“寄居蟹”，那么你的爱心就会成为败笔！
适用话题 爱心、过犹不及、放手、自强

Friedrich Dobl, a Yugoslav working in Germany, was fed up with traffic jams. At long weekends and holiday times when he wanted to get him quickly he always found himself behind hundreds of other cars moving slowly along the notorious foreign workers’ route through Germany and Austria.
How easy it all was for police and emergency services. A siren, a flashing light? And like magic everyone was out the way. Going home from work one night he passed a garage. And there in front of him was the answer to his problems. An old ambulance(救护车) was for sale. The red cross had been removed. But not the flashing light, and the siren. He tried the light. It flashed magnificently. He tried the siren. That too sounded impressive. He bought the ambulance and opened up for himself a dream world of motoring. It began early in the morning, all his luggage in the back of the ambulance and motorway in Germany looking reasonably clear. Soon, as always, a long line of traffic appeared ahead. He switched on the flashing light and set off the siren. Cars swiftly slowed and pulled off the fast lane. Other cars stopped and drivers waved him ahead to an open road all his own. In record time he crossed the border into Austria. The big bluff was working. Police even waved him through the confusion caused by an accident.
But then the Yugoslav made his big mistake. Until then he had only stopped for petrol. Now he was driving past a real accident, lights flashing , to late realize that it was not another traffic jam as he assumed. They stopped him, and after hearing the story of his ride across two countries fined him 12. 5 pounds.
60. At long weekends and holidays Friedrich Dobl used to ____.
A. drive home in Germany
B. get caught in terrible traffic jams
C. meet other foreign workers
D. get to the place where he worked by a special quick route
61. Why did he decide to buy the ambulance?
A. because he had always wanted one
B. because he wanted to resell it at a higher price
C. because he liked the siren and the flashing light
D. because he knew that other traffic would get clear of the way for an ambulance.
62. The red cross had been removed ____.
A. but he soon put up a new one
B. because the vehicle did not look like an ambulance any more
C. so he asked the garage to paint another one on
D. but the siren and the flashing light still worked
63. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Drive quickly B. How to Avoid accidents
C. A quick Way Home? By An Ambulance D. A Safe way Home? Non-Stop
C
A number of times Rosemary edged closer to Gordon , meaning to take his arm, but he edged away from her. She thought that she had offended him deeply, and that he was disappointed because she had pushed him away. She would have apologized if he had given her half a chance. But as a matter of fact, he was scarcely thinking of this any longer. It was the money business that was troubling him now. And the fact was that he would soon have to confess it. What nonsense it made of all he had said! Presently she stopped him, and swung him round to face her. “Gordon, why won’t you speak to me?” she said. “Are you still angry with me for what happened just now?”
“No, I was never angry with you. You’re not to blame. Something else has been worrying me all the way along, I’ve only eight pence left. I had just enough money for today when we started out, but that dinner bill upset everything. Can you lend me some money?’
Rosemary was amazed. “What does it matter if you’ve only eight pence left? How can you let yourself be worried by a thing like that? As though I objected to lending you money, aren’t I always telling you that I want to pay for myself when we go out together?’
“Yes, and you know how I hate you paying.”
“Oh, how silly you are.” She said. “Do you think there’s anything to be ashamed of in having no money?”
Gordon’s face went bright pink. “Of course there is ! It’s the only thing in the world there is to be ashamed of. I can’t be a complete human being―I don’t feel a human being ?unless I’ve got money in my pocket.”
64. What gave Rosemary the idea that she had hurt Gordon’s feelings deeply?
A. He didn’t say he was sorry.

65. Rosemary made him look at her because ______.
A. she wanted to ask him a question B. she wanted to see his face
C. she was angry with him D. he had been rude
66. Gordon felt that if he asked rosemary to lend him some money _____.

D
When the TV viewer turns on his set, what sort of programs does he have to choose from? You might think there would be more programs devoted to entertainment than to anything else, but that’s not the case. In most countries, fewer than 20% of broadcasting hours are devoted to entertainment. U.S. figures are high----34.8% , and the unloving Canadians are even higher with 44%. Except Canada and Italy, all countries give more broadcasting time to education than to either information (news , documentaries and so on) or entertainment programs. Of course, few educational broadcasts take place during peak viewing times. In Japan though , more than 60%of broadcasting time is taken up with education of one kind of anther----just another example of the businesslike Japanese philosophy. In the U.K., the figure is 56.4% . the Italians have fewer educational programs than anyone else. They don’t go in for entertainment either. Only about ten percent of viewing time is devoted to dramas and serials, quiz shows, music, sports etc. You will find more news information programs on Italian TV than anything else.

London, April 28---The Man Group, a British hedge fund, is betting that investors will want to read more than the latest how-to- get ?rich-quick business book.
In a five-year deal worth roughly $3.6 million announced last week, Man has agreed to sponsor(主办)the Booker Prize for Fiction, which will be renamed the Man Booker Prize. Since creating the award in 1969, Booker P.L.G., a British food group, in June 2000, executives began considering attracting outside sponsors. Man will be the first of these. Bill Grimsey, the chief of the Big Food Group, saw little business sense in a link between a food supplier and a literary prize, explained Dotti Irving, a spokeswoman for the Booker Prize foundation.
Such dissimilarities (差异) have not reduced Man’s enthusiasm for the prize which is expected to be open for the first time to American authors. David Browne, a spokesman for Man, said most of the firm’s investors are high-net-worth individuals who appreciate literature. “The people who buy hedge funds,” Mr. Browne said, “also read.”
Under the new agreement, authors will get more money. The winner of the annual prize, to be awarded in October, will receive $73,000 , up from $30,000 the Australian writer Peter Carey won last year for his novel “True History of the Kelley Gang.”
The six short-listed authors will each receive $3,600, up from $1,500. Having a hedge fund as a backer apparently has its perks.(福利).
72. The article is mainly about ____.
A. the disagreement between two groups B. the Booker Prize Foundation
C. the Big Food Group D. The new development of Booker Prize
73. This article is most probably seen in a(n) ____.
A. best-selling book B. magazine C. newspaper D. advertisement
74. What can be inferred from the article?
A. Bill Grimsey decided to open the prize for American authors
B. “How-to-get-rich-quick” business was written by Peter Carey.
C. Under the agreement, the Booker Prize will be sponsored only by Man.
D. If you win the prize, you will get $73,000 next October
75. Who is the spokesman for Man?
A. David Browne B. Peter Carey C. Bill Grimsey D. Dotti Irving
