Britain and Ireland
　　The British Isles is made up of two large islands: One is called Ireland and the other __16  . Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger of these two islands, and it is17  into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England.
　　The United Kingdom is that 18  of the British Isles ruled over by the Queen. It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the 19  of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the Northern part. The  20  of Ireland is self-governing. The 21  name of the United Kingdom is  22  “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.
　23 is larger and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and has the largest  24   of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 25 “England” and “English” when they  26  “Britain” and “British”. This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh a little 27 . The Scots in particular are very  28 of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not regard   29  as English, and have a culture and even a   30 of their own.
　　Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but for forty years the “Irish  31  ” was the greatest headache of the United Kingdom.  32 , Ireland is divided into two: Northern Ireland still  33 to the United Kingdom, and in 1922 the rest of Ireland   34  to found an Irish Free State, later called Eire and now the Republic of Ireland.
　　The Republic of Ireland does not regard itself as part of Britain, and is not now even a supporter of the Commonwealth of Nations (英聯(lián)邦). Unlike the major Commonwealth countries it did not lift a finger to   35 British in the Second World War and now wants the whole of Ireland to be a republic.

小題1:B由空后的“Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger of these two islands”可推斷出答案。
小題1:A詞組be divided into意思是“被分成……”；cut into 意為“打斷，侵犯”；break into 意為“破門而入”；separate from意為“分離，分開”。
小題1:D由該句可知the United Kingdom就是the British isles中被女王統(tǒng)治的那一部分。
小題1:D由第一段最后一句我們知道Britain是由Scotland, Wales和England三部分組成，所以說以上三部分就是整個(gè)的Britain。
小題1:C此處指英國(guó)的全稱。What’s your full name? 你的全名是什么？
小題1:B由上文可知the United Kingdom 包括Britain，Wales，England以及Northern Ireland，又Britain，Wales和England就是指整個(gè)Britain，因此the United Kingdom又被稱為“The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”。
小題1:D the United Kingdom共由四部分組成，其他三部分都提到了，就剩下England，因此答案為D。
小題1:D只有人口最多，再加上面積最大和最富有，才能使人們提起B(yǎng)ritain或British就用England或English來代替。而大學(xué)、官員和城市最多并不足以使人們這樣做。
小題1:A “England”和“English”是兩個(gè)單詞。
小題1:A表示當(dāng)人們稱呼Britain或British時(shí)，常常用England或English。
小題1:A因?yàn)閃ales和Scotland都屬于Britain，所以稱呼Britain為England自然讓威爾士人和蘇格蘭人都有點(diǎn)生氣。
小題1:A詞組be proud of意思是“為……自豪或驕傲”，符合題意。
小題1:D the Welsh的反身代詞為themselves。
小題1:B作為英國(guó)的一個(gè)相對(duì)獨(dú)立的組成部分，Welsh有自己的語(yǔ)言。而capital是另外幾個(gè)部分都具備的。
小題1:B由下文的the great headache可推出答案為B。
小題1:A詞組at last的意思是“最終”，表示Ireland最終分為兩部分。
小題1:B詞組belong to意思是“屬于”，Northern Ireland 仍舊屬于the United Kingdom。
小題1:C詞組break away表示“脫離”。
小題1:D愛爾蘭共和國(guó)在二戰(zhàn)中一點(diǎn)都沒有幫助英國(guó)人。

Australia---The vote for euthanasia(安樂死)was finally taken at 3:45 this morning. After six months’ argument and final 16 hours’ hot debates, Australia’s Northern Territory became the first legal authority in the world to allow doctors to take the lives of incurably ill patients who wish to die. The bill was passed by the vote of 15 to 10. Almost immediately word flashed on the Internet and was picked up, half a world away, by John Hofsess, the director of the Right to Die Society of Canada. He sent it on through the group’s on-line service, Death NET. Hofsess says, “We posted it all day long, because this isn’t just something that happened in Australia. It’s world history.”
The full import may take a while to understand. The NT Rights of the Terminally III law has left physicians and citizens trying to deal with its moral and practical meaning. Some have breathed sighs of relief, but others, including churches, right to life groups and the Australian Medical Association, bitterly attacked the bill and the haste(匆忙,急忙) of its passage. But the tide is unlikely to turn back. In Australia — where an aging population, life extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part — other states are going to consider making a similar law to for euthanasia. In the US and Canada, where the right to die movement is gathering strength, observers are waiting for the dominoes(多米諾骨牌) to start falling.
Under the new Northern Territory law, an adult patient can request death — probably by a deadly injection or pill — to put an end to suffering. The patient must be diagnosed as incurably ill by two doctors. After a “cooling off” period of seven days, the patient can sign a certificate of request. After 48 hours the wish for death can be met. For Lloyd Nickson, a 54 year old Darwin man suffering from lung cancer, the law means he can get on with living without the fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathing condition. “I’m not afraid of dying from a spiritual point of view, but what I was afraid of was how I’d go, because I’ve watched people die in the hospital fighting for oxygen and clawing at their masks,” he says.
小題1:According to the text ,which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Australia now is the only country in the world to pass the law of euthanasia.
B．All people in Australia don’t have the same positive attitude to euthanasia.
C．Many patients will ask their doctors for euthanasia because they are afraid of death.
D．According to the law, if a patient requests death, his or her wish will be met after 48 hours.
小題2:The underlined sentence in Para 2, “observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling.” means that observers are waiting to see ___________.
A．the result of the game of dominoes.
B．that people’s attitude to euthanasia will be changed.
C．that the bill about euthanasia in Australia will come to an end.
D．the similar bills will be passed in other countries.
小題3:Australia was the first country to pass the bill of euthanasia, but not USA or Canada. Which one is NOT the reason ?
A．In Australia, the technology of extending life is advanced.
B．In Australia, it is easy to deal with the moral and practical meaning.
C．In Australia, old people take up great part in the population of the whole country.
D．Australians gradually realize suffering from a terrible disease is worse than immediate death.
小題4:It can be inferred from the text that _____________.
A．when Lloyd Nickson dies, he will face his death with calm characteristic of euthanasia.
B．physicians and citizens in Australia share the same view on euthanasia.
C．other countries are going to consider making a similar law to deal with euthanasia.
D．under the bill, patients requesting death are sure to be injected by deadly medicine.
小題5:What’s the author’s attitude to euthanasia?
A．NegativeB．CriticalC．PositiveD．Doubtful

“Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity，” said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey. I’ ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it’ s probably worth listening to.
Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’ re a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (樹樁) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’ s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it’ s practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he divided volunteers into two groups：those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper，” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not  spot the message.
It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “l(fā)ucky”， in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners，my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence(巧合)? After reading about Professor Wiseman’ s studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational (理性)thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential （潛在）problem.
Finally, try to turn bad luck into good. Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.
小題1:Which of the following proverbs most agrees with the writer’ s point?
A．Make the best of a bad job.
B．Rome was not built in a day.
C．All is not gold that glitters.
D．A good heart conquers ill fortune.
小題2:What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?
A．She became famous through her family background.
B．She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks （挫折）in her life.
C．She is a British talk show host.
D．She became successful by her own effort.
小題3:The writer quoted（引用） the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show________.
A．luck is in your own hand
B．bad luck can turn into good
C．you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you
D．man can conquer nature
小題4:From the experiment Wiseman drew the conclusion that________.
A．lucky people are quick-minded
B．unlucky people are slow to read
C．lucky people often have an open mind
D．unlucky people are more creative
小題5:The underlined word “spot” is the closest in meaning to“________”．
A．discoverB．markC．makeD．receive

Transportation and communication networks bring people together．Yet sometimes people themselves create barriers(障礙)to transportation and communication．
In some countries，laws stop people from moving freely from place to place．Over the centuries，many groups of people have been denied the freedom to travel because of their race，religion，or nationality．In the Middle Ages，for example，Jews were often forbidden to move about freely within certain cities．South Africa’s government used to require black Africans to carry passes when they travel within the country．Some governments require all citizens to carry identification papers and to report to government officials whenever they move．
Countries set up customs posts at their borders．Foreign travellers must go through a customs inspection before they are allowed to travel in the country．Usually travellers  have to carry special papers such as passports and visas(簽證)．Some countries even limit the number of visitors to their country each year．Others allow tourists to visit only certain areas of the country，or they may require that travellers be with an official guide at all times during their stay．
Many of those barriers to travel also act as barriers to communication．When two governments disagree with each other on important matters，they usually do not want their citizens to exchange news or ideas freely．Countries often try to keep military or lndustrial information secret．
Today，people have the ability to travel，to communicate，and to transport goods more quickly and easily than ever before．Natural barriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily．The barriers that people themselves make are not so easy to overcome．But in spite of all the different kinds of barriers，people continue to enjoy travel and the exchange of goods and ideas.
小題1:Choose the best title for the passage．
A．Progress of Human Society
B．Restrictions on Transportation
C．Functions of Communication
D．Barriers Made by People

A．travellers have to carry special papers such as visas
B．customs posts are necessary at the borders of the countries
C．people have been allowed to travel freely within the country
D．people have not been permitted to travel freely for various reasons
小題3:Why do some governments limit the freedom of communication?Because they______.
A．intend to keep their national secrets unknown to others
B．think such freedom will lead to wars
C．often disagree with each other on important matters
D．want to show their authority over communication
小題4:We may learn from the passage that_______.
A．people do not care about the removal of barriers between countries
B．people can not remove the obstacles made by themselves
C．man-made barriers are sometimes harder to overcome than natural ones
D．barriers should be taken for granted as they always exist

Texting in the street—your funeral
Millions of people are putting their lives at risk by texting their friends as they walk along busy streets, reported the Daily Mail.
One in ten  41  users has already been  42  because they are so lost in their phones that they fail to  43  lamp-posts or cars, according to Joanna Lumdsen of Aston University.
To test the danger of texting while  44  , Lumdsen did an experiment in which volunteers followed a  45  path while trying to  46  in a message on the phone.
Around them, screens  47  up instructions to avoid stepping on  48  colors on the floor.
She found that people missed one in five  49  because they were so busy with their phones.
“In  50  life this means that one in five lamp-posts or moving cars is  51
to go unnoticed by people  52  and walking,” she said.
Her research is looking for ways cell phone makers could improve the  53
of phones to make texting on the move  54  . That could  55  easier-to-use voice operated phones, or phones that respond to gestures.
“The safest thing is  56  people not to text while they walk along,” she said. “ 57  a lot of people in business are  58  to carry a mobile phone and be in  59  24 hours a day, seven days a week. They are under pressure to reply to calls  60  , and to respond to text messages and emails straight away.

    The legal age for drinking alcohol in the Unite States is twenty-one. Underage drinking is a crime but also a common part of college social life. This week in our Foreign Student Series, we look at alcohol rules at American colleges and universities. These rules differ from school to school, but many schools have been moving to strengthen their rules.
    The United States has more than 17,000,000 students in higher education. Each year, 1700 of them die from alcohol-related road crashes and other injuries. 600,000 more are injured while under the influence of alcohol. And almost 700,000 are attacked by another drunken.
    One behavior that college officials are trying to prevent is too much drink. Some researchers have found that students who think binge drinking(狂飲) is normal often think extremely how much other students really drink. A person can die of alcohol poisoning. At Oklahoma University, a nineteen-year-old student died from drinking heavily at a party in 2005.
    Now alcohol is banned from all sorority houses(聯(lián)誼會(huì)會(huì)館) and university housing. Student organizations can serve alcohol at events but only on Friday and Saturday nights. Other new requirements include an alcohol education program that first-year students take online.
    The rules govern behavior on campus(大學(xué)校園)and off. With a first violation(違犯)，students pay seventy-five dollars and their parents are told. They must also take an alcohol education class. For a second “strike”, they have to pay one hundred fifty dollars. A third strike means that they have to be suspended school for at least one semester.
    Since 2005,363 students have had a first strike. 30 have had a second strike-and only one hasn’t allowed to go to school for one semester. The president at Oklahoma tells us the aim is not just to punish but to change the behavior and culture at the university.
    小題1:The first paragraph mainly tells us that            .
    A．the legal age at the lowest for drinking alcohol is 21
    B．many colleges consider drinking alcohol to be a crime
    C．drinking alcohol is a necessary and popular campus culture
    D．American colleges and universities have their own alcohol rules
    小題2:Every year the number of the students who die or are injured because of alcohol in the USA adds up to about        .
    A．17,000,000B．1,301,700C．601,700D．1300,000
    小題3:If a student has a third strike, he or she should            .
    A．have to stop going to school for a time.
    B．be removed to another school
    C．be locked at home for a period.
    D．be forced to leave school forever.
    小題4:Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．College students are not allowed to drink alcohol at any time.
    B．If students take an alcohol program online, they can drink alcohol.
    C．Students having a first strike only receive punishment of fine.
    D．Students with a second strike pay twice as much as students with a first strike.
    小題5:From the last paragraph we can infer that         .
    A．a(chǎn)lcohol rules have no effect on college students
    B．drinking alcohol remains a serious problem
    C．a(chǎn)lcohol rules aim to change the behavior and culture at the university
    D．the number of students drinking alcohol is dropping in one way

    The desire for a better life is sometimes so big that it makes people leave their countries and their families and work in other countries. They know that they will have to face difficult moments，that they won’t be able to communicate with the persons around them，and that maybe they will have to work in illegal conditions to get the money they need for their families，but they all take these chances and they hope they will succeed.
    On the other hand，there are people who immigrate(移民)just for the sake of the people they love. They leave their families to make other families with the people they love. Women go to meet their men who have chosen other countries to start a new life，even if they miss their families and friends. Maybe they don’t have a place to work but they are able to wait to see what destiny(命運(yùn)) has for them.
    There are also the cases of the people who are forced to leave their countries because of a war which threatens their lives. They’d rather start from the very beginning again than risk putting their lives in danger.
    When well­developed countries see that their homeland is being “invaded” by lots of immigrants，they set new laws that make immigration harder. As a result of this，many illegal immigrants cross the borders and are eager to work，although they are paid only half the amount of money native workers receive for the same kind of job.
    The opinions of the local people are varied and they range from total refusal to complete acceptance. Immigrants in countries which have large communities of them are fighting for the recognition of their social rights and for equal treatment.
    Many immigrants have managed to be fully accepted by the communities where they live and have managed to change the opinions of the local people about them.
    小題1:Which of the following reasons for immigration is NOT mentioned in the passage?
    A．Escaping from a war.B．Being reunited with the beloved people.
    C．Seeking a better life.D．Studying a foreign language.
    小題2:What’s the usual response to immigrants in well­developed countries?
    A．To accept them.B．To put limitations on immigration.
    C．To refuse them.D．To encourage them.
    小題3:The passage implies that ________.
    A．culture shock causes great anxiety in some immigrants
    B．illegal immigrants cause great damage to developed countries
    C．stricter laws should be set to prevent immigration
    D．many people go to other countries with great determination

    Parents, our first teachers, play a highly significant role in our lives．However, doesn't it seem that many of us come to have conflicts with them when we start high school? We're less likely to listen to them and take their suggestions—we even rebel against them．
    Why? It may be the so-called "generation gap"．A generation gap appears when we begin to feel our parents
    are ignoring us, don't understand us, and we feel we can no longer share our feelings with them．
    The key reason is our desire for independence．In senior high school, we start to want to take responsibility for our own lives and make our own decisions．But parents resist this．They still want to control us and try to force us to do things they think we should do．Debate and discussion often come to nothing．Gradually, we talk with them less, and keep our feelings locked up inside．
    Zhang Xiaoyun, 16, of Ningbo, Zhejiang, has talked less and less with her mother since she started senior high school．"She believes studies should be my priority, not my inner world," Zhang said．"Each day, she asks me the same old questions like, 'How was your last exam? or 'Have you made any progress in physics?" To Zhang, these questions are annoying and so she always tries to ignore them and answers perfunctorily．"Sometimes, when I get upset, I quarrel with her．After, she comes to apologize and comfort me．But I know, she doesn't completely understand me," Zhang said．Now, a home that was once full of laughter has fallen into gloom and silence．
    The generation gap can be harmful．Because of the lack of communication, our parents no longer know what we are thinking about．There are quarrels, even over trivial things．When that happens, we may not be able to concentrate on our studies．Some of us even become afraid to go home after school— a very serious situation for the whole family．
    小題1:Which of the following is not included in article?
    A．The causes of generation gap．B．The effects of generation gap．
    C．One example of generation gap．D．Ways of narrowing generation gap．
    小題2:Which of the following is one reason for the generation gap according to the passage?
    A．Modern society changing very fast．
    B．Parents having unrealistic hopes of their children．
    C．Parents and kids not understanding and respecting each other．
    D．Young people liking to escape from the control of their parents．
    小題3:Which of the following word has the closet meaning to the underlined word "perfunctorily"?
    A．a(chǎn)ttentivelyB．indifferently

    FU Yuan has been left at home with his grandparents since he was one month old. His mom and dad left to work in Fujian Province. For the past eight years, Fu has only seen his parents three times although they send home 500 yuan every two or three months.
    Fu Xiaoyu, 16, has had to live alone since her grandmother passed away three years ago. Her parents do not want to renounce their jobs at a clothing factory in Guangdong Province. Nor can they afford the cost of sending her to a school in the city where they work.
    These are just two of the 29 kids that 16-year-olds Huang Ruoqing and Zhang Linna at Beijing No 4 High School talked with this summer in Guixiang Village in Sichuan Province.
    What Huang and Zhang learned from their three-day visit shocked them. They wrote down all the kids’ stories in a moving 40-page essay filled with statistical charts.(統(tǒng)計(jì)表)
    In the poor village with a population of 2,118 people, 582 adults have left to find work, leaving 156 children without parents. Among these so-called left-behind kids, 88 percent of them live with their grandparents, five percent live with uncles or aunts and seven percent have to live on their own.
    To Huang and Zhang’s surprise, 80 percent of the children said they love going to school. Even
    though, some children have to walk along the hilly roads for two hours to get there.
    However, for this village’s students studying is not their first task. Housework, such as helping feed pigs or buffalos(水牛) and taking care of old grandparents, younger sisters or brothers, takes up a considerable amount of their time.
    Despite having to work hard at home, over 65 percent of the young interviewees would prefer their parents’ stay away working rather than returning to live with them.
    “These kids are understanding and considerate and know how important money is for their families. Their little wishes like having dinner with their parents inspire us never to take what we have had for granted,” Zhang said.
