  You’ve probably heard of a lot about the Internet, but what is it?

  The Internet is a computer network that uses the telephone system to connect together millions of computers around the world.

 Maybe that isn’t very exciting but once you’re connected to the Internet, there are lots and lots of different things you can do.You can send electronic messages or “emails” to your friends(as long as they’re on the Internet, too), or you can sort through all kinds of information on something called the World Wide Web(www世界信息网).

  You don’t need to know how the Internet works in order to use it, but if you understand the basics, it may help you work out any technical problems you have-and of course you can help your friends with your Net knowledge!

  You may think that your telephone is just for talking.But as long as you have the equipment, you can use a telephone line to send computer data(数据)as well as sounds.If you connect your computer with the telephone system, it can receive information from, and send information to other computers(as long as they are connected with the telephone system, too).

A twisted sense of humor and a strong voice cast(演出人员) make "Open Season" fun for kids and adults. It's a great start for Sony's animation studio.

Boog is a full-grown grizzly(灰熊)bear that has been raised among humans by park ranger Beth. He has a warm place to live, all the food he wants, and is safe from hunters.

However, when he crosses paths with the spastic(大脑性麻痹的) mule deer Elliot, all that changes. Thanks to a series of misunderstandings, everyone believes Boog is dangerous and out of control. Beth is forced to release(释放) him back into the wild.

Once Boog finds himself in the great outdoors, he has no idea what to do. He gets lost, can't find food, and is attacked by unfriendly forest cutters. Boog is forced to rely on the idiotic Elliot to help him find his way back to civilization(文明). But can they make it before open season begins for hunting?

The movie also has a really strong voice cast. Martin Lawrence voices Boog, and his attitude and persona(人格面具)perfectly fit the bear. The same goes for Aston Kutcher as Elliot. Even if you can't stand him in the real world, you'll be surprised how well he brings the annoying deer to life in the movie.

The animation in "Open Season" is also excellent. The characters are quite cartoonish, but the hair is realistic looking and the movements are fantastic. The body language adds a lot to the performances of the characters.

What’s the key factor(因素) that the Boog need to survive himself in the wild?

A. He wants to seek a comfortable settlement. 

B. It’s thought that the Boog is beyond control.

C. The Boog is required to find enough food.  

D. The Boog is eager to make new friends.

Who is the enemy of the Boog?

A. Elliot            B. Beth           C. hunter          D. Martin

How can you understand the underlined word “make it” in the fourth paragraph?

D. A really strong voice cast of the “ Open Season ”

With rapid increase of economic rate in western countries, more and more married young couples tend to have no child or only one. At the meantime, many developing nations adopt family planning policy to get rid of poverty. All these facts result in a world with population growth rate declining. But I myself would like to grow up in a big family.

    Of course, a small family has its advantages. Firstly, small family makes it easier for parents to bring up and educate their children. Parents could spend more time and money educating one child than several. The child could grow up in an influential environment. Secondly, the child could learn more survival skills for future success.

    However,                      . The only child becomes the little emperor. It would make the one child ask more for him and think less of others. Besides, after the child grows up and gets married, the new couple has to take care of four old parents. That means the two children must work hard to support the old parents. At present, many nations are facing the problem of becoming aged society. China will face this situation in a short time to come.

    On the contrary, a big family weighs over a small family in many aspects. Firstly, parents could educate several children with almost the same time as they spend with one. Moreover, the old brothers or sisters also could help their parents bring up little children. Secondly, if one of the children turns out to be successful, it may mean he or she is becoming a model for other children to learn from.

    Despite the fact that parents have to spend more time and money bringing up several children, it is not as difficult as people think it to be. With the help of good educational system and modern technology, it is becoming easier to afford several children.

1.What is the writer's attitude whether it is good to grow up in a big family? (no more than 10 words.)

                                                                             

2.Translate the underlined sentence in the first paragraph into Chinese.

                                                                             

3.What's the main idea of the second paragraph? (no more than 10 words.)

                                                                             

4. Please fill in the blank with proper words or phrases. (no more than 10 words.)

                                                                              

5.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

   Although parents need more time and money to raise several children, it’s easier than it’s thought to be.

                                                                              

 

“Made in America’’ must make a comeback

 One thing the financial crisis shows is that the United States is in trouble because Americans have stopped making things.

    It used to be that we made a lot of things:televisions,clothes,radios,typewriters,and telephones.And we also used to make the things out of which things were made:steel,plastic,and glass.Today they are largely made overseas.They send us their things and we send them our money.It also used to be that Americans liked to make things.Think of all the things Thomas Edison invented.Or Henry Ford.Countless others worked as toolmakers and machinists because they liked to work with their hands.A Japanese neighbor visiting a US factory told me once that he envied Americans because they did not accept cultural limitations in improving the way something is made.He said that you could never go against the grain like that in Japan. But today we rely on people around the world to do that innovation(创新)for us.

    To be sure,outsourcing(外购)has some benefits,but the danger in ending our desire to make things is that,in doing so,we forget what made America great.It was hard work and persistence.It was having a dream and being patient and self-sacrificing to achieve that dream.Forgetting that contributes to America’s deterioration(退化).

 Nowadays,young people are not encouraged to work with their hands.It’s thought to lower their status.They want to work in the financial industry(at least until recently).But working with your hands to create something new is rewarding.Even better,it helps you see how something can be improved.

 Be sure the “can-do spirit”is still alive in America.We just need to encourage it in our young people.Today’s schools must help teach our young people the value of physical labour and help us take advantage of the greatest place to be for innovation.

      A.do what is normally done                     B.not buy the grain

      C.not accept cultural limitations               D.obey the common rules

3. The main reason for America’s deterioration is that       

      A.people prefer outsourcing                            B.people lack the can-do spirit

C.schools don’t teach children well          D.people forget what made America great

4. What’s the writer’s attitude towards the present situation in America?

A.Neutral and objective.                       B.Worried but optimistic.
