It may seem to be a hard task to trace back the history of rap music, though you often see the informal music associated with highly informal dance style. As far as the origin of rap music is concerned, most people agree that it is from Afro-American and Latino Street culture of New York City. Not only in this city but in the surrounding areas there is the influence of African people and their culture.
Rap is a vocal (口頭的) style in which the performer speaks rhythmically and in rhyme, generally to a beat. The term of rap music is the same with hip-hop music typically-consisting of a rhythmic vocal style called rap. If we see it carefully, then we will definitely notice that the music usually is sung at higher pitches (調(diào)). Most of the time rap music is associated with chorus. Though rap music was primarily an American music style with African influence over its music and lyrics, recently it has been spread to almost the entire world.
There is hardly any country or nation where rap music cannot be seen in some form or another, and it is one of the most popular music styles among the youngsters. However, when it comes to its history, it is believed that hip-hop or rap music started in the early 1970s，and gained much popularity throughout the world during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The history of rap music and hip-hop music is full of controversies (爭(zhēng)議) and bans, as the lyrics sometimes relate to drugs and crime; even most famous pop stars and hip-hop musicians and singers were found to be associated with the controversies in their life. For that reason, no matter how popular this music style was or still is, it has always had a bad reputation in the eyes of mainstream society

A new United Nations report shows that fish farming may soon be the world’s most important provider of fish. The Food and Agriculture Organization says fish farming is growing at a rate of 6.6 percent a year.
Fish farming now produces forty-six percent of the world’s supply of fish. That represents a forty-three percent increase from 2006. The report also said fish farming earned more money in 2008 than traditional fisheries.
In fish farming, fish are raised in tanks or small bodies of water called ponds. They are also raised in cages or nets in oceans, lakes and rivers. The report says increased fish farming has helped people around the world eat record amounts of fish. The FAO says each person ate an average of almost seventeen kilograms of fish last year.
However, the FAO says the current yearly wild-fish harvest of ninety million tons shows no improvement. Decreasing numbers of fish and stronger catch limits have reduced the possibilities for catching wild fish. The FAO report says about thirty-two percent of world supplies are overfished. It says these supplies of fish need to be rebuilt at once.
Some scientists have criticized fish farming. They say the nets and cages permit fish diseases and pests to spread. Some fish farming critics doubt whether fish farming can keep growing at the current rate. But Wally Stevens of the trade group Global Aquaculture Alliance says the industry must continue developing to feed growing populations. Mr. Stevens says a one hundred percent increase in fish farming over ten years is necessary to keep providing for people at the current level. He notes that fish farming creates jobs and wealth, especially for people in coastal areas of China

  1. 1.

    We learn that since the year 2006, fish farming has been ______

    1. A.
      earning more money than traditional fisheries
    2. B.
      developing rapidly around the world
    3. C.
      growing at a rate of 6.6 percent each day
    4. D.
      producing 46% of the world’s supply of fish
  2. 2.

    According to Paragraph 3, thanks to fish farming, people around the world are able to ______

    1. A.
      buy more kinds of fishes
    2. B.
      eat more fish than before
    3. C.
      eat much healthier fish
    4. D.
      eat much bigger fish
  3. 3.

    What is implied in Paragraph 4?

    1. A.
      it is harder to catch wild fish than before
    2. B.
      It costs too much to rebuild supplies of fish
    3. C.
      There is no future for the market of wild fish
    4. D.
      Catching wild fish no longer brings benefits
  4. 4.

    What does Wally Stevens think of fish farming?

    1. A.
      It doesn’t have disadvantages at all
    2. B.
      It cannot keep growing at the current rate
    3. C.
      It is not a good way of raising fish
    4. D.
      It must develop fast to supply a growing population

Cambodians are continuing to mourn the death of King-Father Norodom Sihanouk, who died in Beijing this week. In an exclusive interview with CCTV, China’s ambassador to Cambodia, Pan Guangxue, says Sihanouk made indelible(不可磨滅的) contributions to Sino-Cambodian relations and his death will not affect the friendship between the two countries.
Since its founding, the People’s Republic of China has maintained close contact with Cambodia. Bilateral(雙邊的) trade volume has increased rapidly in recent years, from 200 million US dollars in 2002 to nearly 2.5 billion US dollars in 2011.
China is now not only Cambodia’s third largest trading partner, but for many years has been Cambodia’s number one investor. Norodom Sihanouk, Cambodia’s “King-Father” pioneered the relationship.
Pan Guangxue said, “If we look back at previous decades, I think Sihanouk made the right choice, a choice good to Cambodian national development. It was because of his commitment to the development of Sino-Cambodia friendship that we’ve achieved what we have today.”
In 2010, the two countries established a comprehensive strategic partnership, during its Prime Minister Hun Sen’s visit to China.
And 2013 is set to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year.
Pan Guangxue said, “Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on many occasions that China does not tell Cambodia what to do or what not to do. China does not point fingers at Cambodia. I think this is a true evaluation of Sino-Cambodian relations. China pursues an independent peaceful foreign policy of non-alignment(不結(jié)盟) and non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.”
The ambassador says Sihanouk’s death is a huge loss to both China and Cambodia, but that bilateral relations will not be affected.
Pan Guangxue said, “I believe the bilateral relationship will be sustained and grow even stronger.”
With both countries enjoying the benefits of the fruitful relationship, the governments of China and Cambodia have promised that Sihanouk’s legacy(遺產(chǎn)) will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties

  1. 1.

    We can learn from the passage that Sihanouk ________

    1. A.
      is the present Cambodian Prime Minister
    2. B.
      went for an interview with CCTV the other day
    3. C.
      made the right choice to encourage investment in China
    4. D.
      had great influence on Sino-Cambodian relations
  2. 2.

    The following facts can prove the good Sino-Cambodian relations EXCEPT that _______

    1. A.
      Sihanouk was committed to Cambodian national development
    2. B.
      the two countries has set 2013 to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year
    3. C.
      the two countries has established a comprehensive strategic partnership
    4. D.
      trade volume between the two countries has increased sharply in recent years
  3. 3.

    What is Pan Guangxue’s opinion on Sihanouk’s death?

    1. A.
      It will more or less damage the bilateral relationship
    2. B.
      It will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties
    3. C.
      It means a huge loss for both countries in economy
    4. D.
      It has very little negative effect on the bilateral relationship
  4. 4.

    Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

    1. A.
      China-Cambodia Friendship Year
    2. B.
      China-Cambodia friendship to continue
    3. C.
      Sihanouk’s death—a great loss to Cambodia

When the swim season began, my 11-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and I cut a deal. She would go to practice three times a week and try really hard, and I wouldn’t make her compete in the swim meets because on the day of a meet, she would be nervous all day. Her nerves rooted from the possibility that she would do something horribly wrong and let everyone down.
Recently, they had a T-shirt relay, which works like this: one person from each relay team puts on a T-shirt and a pair of socks, swims 50 meters, and gets out of the pool. She takes off the clothes and puts them on the next person, who then swims 50 meters. This continues until everyone on the team has completed a lap.
By the last leg, Elizabeth’s team had built up a moderate lead. Then it was Elizabeth’s turn to swim. She seemed to swim faster in the T-shirt and socks than when she wasn’t wearing them.
Approaching the halfway mark, she was still in the lead. Then one of Elizabeth’s socks fell off and was floating in the pool. “She has to get that sock on before the end of the race,” a swimming official told her team, “or you will be disqualified.”
Everybody on her team started screaming, “Elizabeth! Elizabeth! Stop! Get the sock!” But she couldn’t hear them. As she started her last 25 meters, a girl in Lane 2 was gaining on Elizabeth. It was time for desperate measures. A girl on my daughter’s team jumped in the pool, grabbed the sock, and swam after Elizabeth. She grabbed Elizabeth’s foot. “You have to put the sock on,” the girl screamed. Elizabeth continued swimming while her teammate put on the sock.
By now, the girl in Lane 2 was about to pass Elizabeth. With the sock finally on, Elizabeth swam her heart out for the last 15 meters. It was close, but Elizabeth beat the other girl to the wall for the victory.
On the ride home, she relived her moment of glory again and again. She told me that if the T-shirt relay was an Olympic event, her team would win the gold medal. I told her that in my professional opinion, she was absolutely right

  1. 1.

    Elizabeth was nervous about swim meets because she _______

    1. A.
      was afraid of disappointing everyone
    2. B.
      didn’t expect to lose the swim match
    3. C.
      didn’t want to compete against other girls
    4. D.
      was worried about making errors in public
  2. 2.

    From the passage, we know that _______

    1. A.
      socks contributed greatly to Elizabeth’s victory
    2. B.
      the match nearly drove Elizabeth desperate
    3. C.
      good luck finally fell on Elizabeth’s team
    4. D.
      Elizabeth’s team narrowly won the match
  3. 3.

    It can be inferred that Elizabeth would _______

    1. A.
      swim faster in the T-shirt
    2. B.
      enjoy swim meets later on
    3. C.
      experience the moment again
