     Nuclearpowered aircraft carriers are considered one of the most important marine weapons in the
20th century. So far, only two countries in the world, the USA and France, have ever produced them.
But these fearful fighting machines are about to enter Asia.
     The US Navy said last month that one of its nine nuclearpowered aircraft carriers will be sent to
Japan to replace the diesel(柴油)powered carrier Kitty Hawk in 2008. In an agreement on October
30, the two countries also planned to level up their military (军事的) cooperation and the USA called
for Japan to take a larger role in alliance military moves.
     It will be the first time that a nuclearpowered carrier is based in Japan. Bombed by US forces in
World War ? at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a
nuclear weapon. Therefore, the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclearpowered weapons are
based.
      "A radiation leak at Yokosuka would kill 100,000 people as far away as Tokyo, and could cause
billions of dollars in damage," said Masahiko Goto, leader of a protest group in Yokosuka. His group
has collected more than 300,000 signatures of people across Japan opposed to the nuclear carrier.
     The 44yearold Kitty Hawk, the US Navy's oldest active ship, has been based in Yokosuka since
1998. It had returned to the US to be decommissioned in 2008. The new carrier, yet to be unveiled,_
will travel faster, be capable of supporting longer operations and carry with it the Navy's most modern
technology.
     Experts pointed that this change is not only to strengthen the USJapan military alliance but also to
keep the military power of China and North Korea within limits. However, even Japanese experts don't
believe that the two countries are threats to the region.
     "There is no need for Japan to have a nuclear carrier as defense," said Tetsuo Maeda, an international
relations professor at Tokyo International University. He said that the change of ship indicates an
increased military capability in the region, much more than what is needed.

1. With such a formidable weapon to enter its country, Japanese citizens ________.
A. are aware of its benefits to the country
B. are anxious about its potential danger
C. are curious about the advanced technology
D. are against where the carrier will be based

2. The replacement of the aircraft carrier is intended to________.
A. set up a kind of base in Japan
B. strengthen the USJapan military alliance
C. show Japan's greater military capability
D. get rid of the dated marine weapon

3. From the story, we learn that________.
A. no other countries except the USA and France possess aircraft carriers
B. Japan has long planned to increase its military capability with new weapons
C. Japan will be the first country in Asia to have a nuclear aircraft carrier
D. Japan will be the third country to produce a nuclearpowered aircraft carrier

4. The underlined word "unveiled" in the fifth paragraph probably means________.
A. perfected  
B. discussed about
C. produced  
D. brought to view

     However important school life may be, we can't ignore the fact that children spend more time at home
than in the classroom.Therefore the great influence of parents can't be ignored or discounted by the
teacher.They can become strong supports of the school or they can consciously or unconsciously prevent
the school from accomplishing its aims.
     Administrators have been aware of the need to keep_parents_apprised_of the newer methods used in
schools.Many principals have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness
program and developmental math.
     Moreover, the classroom teacher can also play an important role in explaining to parents what they
should do.The informal tea and many interviews carried on during the year, as well as new ways of
reporting pupils' progress, can significantly aid the interchange of ideas between school and home.
     Suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly
interview, the teacher can help the parent change his method.He might be persuaded to let Junior
participate in discussing the family budget, buying the food, using a measuring cup at home, setting the
clock, calculating mileage on a trip and engage in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis.
     If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making
satisfactory progress in math and at the same time, enjoying the work.
     Too often, however, teachers' conferences with parents are devoted to unimportant accounts of
children' s wrongdoing, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestions for punishments
and rewards at home.
     What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional advisor, plants
ideas in parents'minds for the best use of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom.In
this way, the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngsters'competence.

1. The underlined phrase"keep parents apprised of"in Para.2 probably means to let parents________.

A. judge  
B. know
C. design  
D. develop

2. What is the purpose of the schools' informal tea and interviews?

A. To improve the relationship between teachers and parents.
B. To explain to parents the change of the school curriculum.
C. To report students' misdoings and suggestions for punishments.
D. To help develop good communication between school and home.

3. Why does the author provide the example in Paragraph 4?

A. To help parents know the importance of home activities.
B. To show how the teacher can guide in home training.
C. To prove parents are nonprofessional advisors.
D. To advice parents to teach kids math at home.

4. From the passage we learn that the author________.

A. thinks teachers should do better as professionals
B. is worried about children' s performance at home
C. is satisfied with the present state of school education
D. believes time spent out of the classroom has been wasted

      Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their
children's careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men and women? For many
children it means starting schoolwork very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take
a second place. It's very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even
at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.
      Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government
for the very best young sportsmen and women. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents
who have to find the time and the money to support their child's development and sports clothes, transport to
competitions, special equipment, etc. Can all be very expensive?
      Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some
doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional
(专业的) trainers, however, believe that it is only by training young that you can reach the top as a successful
sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be
prepared for failure even after many years of training.
1. This article is most probably taken from ____.
[     ]
A. a letter
B. an advertisement
C. a personal diary
D. a newspaper article
2. According to the passage, parents whose children show a special interest in sport ____.
[     ]
A. feel uncertain if they should let their children train to be sports men or women.
B. try to get financial(财政的) support from the government for their children's training.
C. have to get medical advice from doctors about training methods.
D. prefer their children to be trained as young as possible.
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
[     ]
A. By starting young, you won't have much time for your schoolwork.
B. Early training may damage your muscles.
C. Most children may become professional sports men after a long period of training.
D. It's very expensive for parents to support their child's development in sports.
4. The phrase "to take a second place" means ____.
[     ]
A. to repeat the activities some other day
B. to become less important
C. of all the things, they are the most important
D. to happen again
5. ____ can become the best players after many years of training.
[     ]
A. Most people
B. Some people
C. Hardly any people
D. No people

     The practice of magic includes special words, actions, and objects. Most magic involves a person
called a magician, who claims to have supernatural powers.
      Magic words. To work most magic, the magician sings or speaks special words in a certain order.
These words are called incantations or spells. Some spells form prayers to demons(魔鬼), spirits, or
other supernatural forces. Many societies believe the magic will not work unless the magician recites the
spells perfectly. Other magic words have no meaning, though they supposedly possess power when
spoken by a magician.
     Magic actions accompany the words spoken in performing much magic. Many of these movements
act out the desired effect of the magic. For example, a magician trying to make rain fall may sprinkle(洒)
water on the ground. The magician's combined words and actions form a ceremony.
     Magic objects include certain plants, stones, and other things with supposed supernatural powers.
Any such object may be called a fetish(物神). But this term often refers to an object-for example, a
carving or a dried snake-honored by a tribe for its magic powers. Many tribes believe fetishes have
magic power because spirits live in these objects.
     Many people carry magic objects called amulets(护身符)to protect themselves from harm. Many
amulets are stones or rings engraved(雕刻) with magic symbols.
     The magician. In some societies, nearly everyone knows how to work some magic. In other societies,
only experts practice magic. Magicians may be called medicine men, medicine women, shamans,
sorcerers, or witch doctors. In many societies, magicians must inherit their powers. In others, any person
may become a magician by studying the magical arts.
     Many societies believe magicians must observe certain rules and taboos (forbidden actions) for their
spells to work. For example, they may be required not to eat various foods or to avoid sexual activity for
a certain period before the ceremony.

1. What do magic words mean to people in some society?
A. They have the power to kill devils.
B. They have power if magician recites the right spells.
C. They have no effect at all.
D. They can be used whenever they want.

2. People believe magic actions will have an effect if they are accompanied by________.
A. the spells
B. magic objects
C. stones or rings engraved with magic symbols
D. medicine

3. Why do many people believe in a fetish?
A. Because it is often a ring which is worth a lot of money.
B. Because it is carved with magic symbols.
C. Because people think spirits live in it.
D. Because it can help them with many things.

4. According to the passage what kind of person can become a magician?
A. Only those studying the magical arts.
B. Only those inheriting their powers.
C. Only men.
D. Almost all the people in some societies.

5. What's the best title of the passage?
A. How Magic Works
B. The Power of Magic
C. How to Practice Magic
D. The Choice of Magicians
     I'm usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded
that today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for
mental illness 50 years ago.
     Why are America's kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation
(隔离) brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things and a
growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Considering that we_can't_turn_the_clock_back,_adults can still do plenty to help the next generation.
     At the top of the list is nurturing(培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is
an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress.
To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Your
family will thank you later. They will have more time for facetoface relationships, and they will get more
sleep.
     Limit the amount of virtual(虚拟的) violence your children are exposed to. It's not just video games
and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
     Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended
Harvard or Yale.
     Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a
good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn't have to ruin your life.
1．According to the analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill 50 years ago ________.
A．probably suffered less from anxiety
B．were considered less individualistic
C．were less isolated physically
D．were probably less selfcentered
2．What does the author mean by saying "we can't turn the clock back" in the third paragraph?
A．It's impossible to forget the past.
B．The social reality children are facing cannot be forgotten.
C．It's impossible to slow down the pace of change.
D．Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten
3．The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about people's state of mind are ________.
A．illogical  
B．confusing
C．surprising  
D．questionable
4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.
B．TV and computer play an important role in isolating children from the real world.
C．Exercise does not help to lessen children's anxiety.
D．Sometimes local news about crime and murder also affects children a little

     I heard many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your
age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two
feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of
showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them
are clutching (紧握) at one another's hands for reassurance.
     They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new
directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thusandsuch a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out
of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger_cocoon.
     It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his
or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn
from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today's parents have come
to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.
     But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it.
Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are. That
is the only kind of popularity that really counts.

1. In this passage, the author wants to tell ________.
A. teenagers to try to pursue their real selves
B. readers to try to be popular with people around
C. parents to try to control and guide their children
D. people to try to understand and respect each other

2. The author disapproves of rebelling teenagers ________.
A. growing away from their parents
B. following the popularity trend
C. walking a new way on their own
D. turning to their friends for help

3.The phrase "larger cocoon" at the end of the second paragraph refers to ________.
A. the distractive and variable society
B. the dazzling music world
C. the parental care and love
D. the popularity wave in the society

     New rules and behavior standards for middle school students came out in March. Middle school is going
to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won't only have high marks. They
will also be kids who don't dye (color) their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.
     Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam? Don't do it again! That's not
something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room,
don't tell your parents you have done homework.
     Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-Loving Month in
China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about
animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes more fun for everyone.
     Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together
can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others not only yourself.
     Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you'll discover
Earth II someday. Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them,
because new ideas make life better for everyone.
      Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don't let it happen to you.
If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know.
    Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet
aren't for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good for you. You can use the Web for fun or homework.
Can't you find any good Web sites for children? Here are some: http://kids.eastday.com;http://chinakids.com;
http://www.cycnet.com

1. The school new rules will help kids by telling them ______.
A. how they can study well
B. what they should do at school
C. what is right and what is wrong
D. how they can protect themselves
2. The main idea for the fourth paragraph is about _______.
A. making the team stronger
B. working together with others
C. being a good friend to others
D. getting on well with others
3. The passage tells us how to ______.
A. be top students
B. do more at school
C. care for others
D. use the Internet
