He asked among his friends to see if anyone was particularly   to buy a cheap car,but they all knew that it was falling to pieces,so  5  of them had any desire to buy it.
Dave's friend Sam saw that he was  6  when they met one evening,and said,“What's  7 ,Dave?” Dave told him and Sam answered,“Well,what about advertising it in the paper? You may   8  more for it that way than the cost of the advertisement!” Thinking that Sam's   9  was sensible,he put an advertisement in an evening paper,which read:“For sale:small car,  10  very little petrol,only two owners.Bargain at £50.”
For two days after the advertisement first appeared,there was no   11 .But then on Saturday evening a man rang up and said he would like to  12  him about the car.“All right,” Dave said,feeling happy.He asked the man whether ten o'clock the next morning would be   13  or not.“Fine,” the man said.“And I'll  14  my wife.We intend to go for a ride in it to   15  it.”
The next morning,at ten quarter,Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door,  16  to wait there for the person who had   17  his advertisement.Even Dave had to   18  that the car really looked like a wreck.Then soon after he had got the car as   19  as it could be,a police car stopped just behind him and a policeman got out.He looked at Dave's car and then said,“Have you reported this   20  to us yet,sir?”

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下面短文,并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意:每空格1個(gè)單詞。
When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send e-mail that gets read to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software, which is free, can be downloaded at www. Facemail.com.
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale? And the company is talking with Whirlpool about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I’m a fan. But Facemail should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when you’ve got psycho-mail.

B
As the summer comes, the exhausted consumers start paying attention to the latest cooling devices(儀器)in the market. With the competition rising ,buying an air conditioner (AC) is no longer a big deal; moreover the easy finance schemes make it a device for every life.
Design
Though it carries the standard design for AC, yet it looks elegant(優(yōu)雅的) when fixed on your wall. As AC is exposed to exterior(外部的)climate, it is bound to get damaged and bring maintenance cost if not taken proper care of. But Haier has solved this problem by providing an anti-corrosion(抗腐蝕的)body to all its AC. It has a remote control which provides you with ultimate flexibility and you can operate it from every corner of your room.
Key Features
It’s proved that this AC steals the show by offering 1tonne cooling capacity at the EER of 9.47. This means it operates at low power and thus helps you save great energy, and consequently it wins popularity with customers. The rotary compressor(旋轉(zhuǎn)式壓縮機(jī))is the secret behind its smooth and silent operation, which makes it suitable for public and silent areas.
Core Information
Apart from the above features, it attracts consumers by its unique anti-bacterial filters(過(guò)濾器), which act as a favor to your health by destroying the harmful germs and bacteria and make you breathe very clean air.
Advantages and Disadvantages
The anti-bacterial filters prove to be a favor for our respiratory system(呼吸系統(tǒng)). When compared to other famous brands such as Samsung, Onida, and LG, it offers great functions at a very friendly price. However, it lacks some additional filters which are seen in other expensive brands like Electrolux EA12SCRLA1.
Conclusion
It’s a masterpiece(杰作) due to its silent operation and uniform(均速的)cooling. Thus, if you desire cool air, then just switch to this AC and feel the magic.
59. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
A. most customers are not satisfied with the latest AC
B. the price of AC has been lowered due to the fierce competition
C. Haier AC has special functions but no desirable shapes
D. the real secret behind Haier AC’s silent operation hasn’t been published yet
60. The underlined words “steals the show” can be replaced by________.
A. learns key technologies secretly          B. puts theories into practice scientifically
C. attracts more attention and praise         D. shows some advantages and disadvantages
61. Which of the following plays an important role in guaranteeing our health?
A. The anti-corrosion body.                B. The remote control system.
C. The rotary compressor.                 D. The anti-bacterial filters.
62. Compared with other brands, Haier AC’s biggest advantage lies in ________.
A. the standard design                    B. the low maintenance cost
C. the best after-sales service                  D. the great functions at a low price

C
China’s emergence has made it “hugely important” for American students to be fluent in Mandarin according to Margaret Spellings, US education secretary.
Spellings made the remark after she signed a new memorandum of understanding with China’s ministry of education late last week to expand language and academic exchanges.
“It’s in their[US students’] interest to come and learn from and about China and the Chinese people.” she said. “You can buy in any language but you have to sell in the language of the buyer.”
Research supported by the US state department has found the number of Americans studying in China jumped 35 percent in 2004—05 over the previous university year. Spellings said her agency would work to continue the trend.
According to the Chinese ministry,10, 340 Americans studied in China last year, a smaller cohort than the 54, 080 from South Korea or 18, 870 from Japan.
The Bush administration plans to spend $114m in 2007 to fund its national security language initiative, which aims to increase drastically the number of Chinese, Arabic, Russian, Hindi and Farsi speakers in the US.
The US state department estimates that 200, 000 Americans study abroad each year, a significantly smaller group than the 550, 000 students from around the world who go to the states for an education.
Of those studying in the US, 62, 580, or roughly 11 percent of the total,came from Chinese mainland this past school year. China is second only to India, which sent 76, 500 students to the US, as a source of students for US schools.
Spellings said that the Bush administration was now working to make visa application procedures “easier and more transparent” to encourage international students.
59. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. China’s emergence                 B. A research from the US
C. Learning Mandarin                 D. US attaches importance to Mandarin speakers
60. The underlined words “her agency” in the fourth paragraph refer to ____.

This story is about a 92-year-old, short, well-behaved and proud lady. She is fully dressed each morning by eight, with her hair fashionably done and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is totally blind. She is moving to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary.
After many hours of waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she moved to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet(觀察孔) sheets that had been hung on her window.“I love it,” she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old girl having just been presented with a new puppy.
“Mrs. Jones, you haven’t seen the room yet. Just wait.” “That doesn’t have anything to do with it,” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t depend on how the furniture is arranged, it’s a decision I make every morning when I wake up.”
“I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting(敘述) the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away, just for this time in my life. Old age is like a bank account, you withdraw(收回) from what you’ve put in. So, my advice to you would be to deposit(儲(chǔ)蓄) a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. Thank you for your part in filling my memory bank. I am still depositing.”
