       The First Lesson of the New Term, a TV programme about how to protect oneself in times of emergency, is meant to provide school students with the knowledge on self-protection．It will help students in case of natural disasters such as earthquakes, fires, snowstorms or floods．Many examples show that enough knowledge about self-protection along with enough courage and willpower can help many survive．

       The most recent example is from the earthquake in Sichuan Province in May of 2008．While thousands of school kids were killed by collapsed school buildings, all students from a middle school survived even without a single one being hurt．That’s because of their timely and orderly evacuations （撤離）, which they had been drilled in every term．

       It’s good to see this program is the most important activity of a national campaign to make students be aware of personal safety．Chinese Education Ministry has called on all schools nationwide to give lessons on self protection knowledge in times of emergency every term．

       Whether it is “women and children first” or “every man for himself” in a shipwreck（船只失事） may depend on how long it takes the ship to sink, researchers said recently．

       When the Lusitania was torpedoed（用魚雷攻擊） by a German ship in 1915, it sank in 18 minutes and the majority of the survivors were young men and women who responded immediately to their powerful survival instincts（本能）．

       But when the Titanic struck an iceberg in 1912, it took “three hours to go down, allowing time for more civilize（文明的） behavior to take control—and the majority of the survivors were women, children and people with young children．

       Economist Benno Torgler of the Queensland University of Technology in Australia and his colleagues studied the two sinkings in order to explore the economic theory that people generally behave in a “rational”（理性的） and selfish manner．The two tragedies provided a “natural experiment” for testing the idea, because the passengers on the two ships were quite similar in terms of gender （性別） and wealth．

       The major difference was how long it took the ships to sink．They suggested that when people have little time to react, instincts may rule．When more time is available, social influences play a bigger role．But psychologists（心理學家） noted that many factors other than following social norms could come into play in a disaster, including an evolutionary urge to save the species, attachments（依戀） that are formed between individuals during the event and the leadership of authority figures．

       The extent （程度） of altruism （利他主義） and how it occurs “is a very controversial issue,” said Anthony R．Mawson, a professor of preventive medicine at the University of Mississippi Medical Center．He thinks the dominant（主宰的） response was attachment behavior．

       Psychologist Daniel Kruger of the University of Michigan, US thinks that the answer lies less in social norms and more in our evolutionary heritage．Human beings have a deep instinct to preserve our kind, he said, and that means “people are more likely to save those who have higher reproductive value, namely the young and women in child-bearing years”．

       Kruger also stressed the importance of leadership during a disaster, noting that the Titanic’s captain appeared to have greater control than the Lusitania’s．

41．According to Benno Torgler, what led to the different results between the two shipwrecks?

       A．The survival instinct．                         B．The civilized behavior．

       C．The leadership of the captain．               D．The length of time．

42．Which of the follwing explanations for the two sinkings will be accepted by psychologists?

       A．Human beings are born to be selfish．

       B．The well-off will be likely to survive．

       C．Social status will play a decisive role in survival．

       D．Human survival is more significant than that of the individuals．

43．The following factors have something to do with disasters behaviors EXCEPT__________．

       A．leadership                                                B．social division of labor   

       C．a(chǎn) feeling of affection                               D．social regulations

44．According to Daniel Kruger, the young and women in child-bearing years take the priority to survive because________．

       A．they make a contribution to human continuity   

       B．they deserve everybody’s sympathy

       C．they have stronger survival instincts           

       D．they are the weak who need protecting

45．What is the main idea of the passage?

       A．The passage is mainly about two sinkings that had different result about survivals．

       B．The passage shows us the true causes that resulted in the two shipwrecks．

       C．The passage gives us a definite explanation about the different consequence of survivals of the two shipwrecks．

       D．The passage gives us various possible analyses about the disaster behaviors．

       Farm-raised pigs are dirty, smelly animals that get no respect．They’re also an environmental hazard．Their manure（糞便）contains phosphorus（磷），which, when it rains, runs off into lakes and rivers, consuming oxygen, killing fish, stimulating algae（藻類）overgrowth and emitting greenhouse gases．

       Doing away with the pig is not an option．Pigs provide more dietary protein, more cheaply, to more people than any other animal．Northern Europe still maintains the highest pig-to-human ratio（比率）in the world （2-1 in Denmark）, but East Asia is catching up．During the 1990s, pork production doubled in Vietnam and grew by 70 percent in China—along densely populated coastlines, pig density exceeds 100 animals per square kilometer．The resulting pollution is “threatening fragile coastal marine habitats including mangroves（紅樹林），coral reefs and sea grasses ,”according to a report released in February by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations．

       As it turns out, there is a solution to the pig problem, but it requires a change of mind-set among environmentalists and the public．Two Canadian scientists have created a pig whose manure doesn’t contain very much phosphorus at all．If this variety of pig were adopted widely, It could greatly reduce a major source of pollution．But the Enviropig, as they call it, is the product of genetic modification—which is anathema（忌諱） to many Westerners．

       The Enviropig is one of many new technologies that are putting environmentalists and organic-food supporters in a quandary: should they remain categorically（無條件） opposed to genetically modified （GM）foods even at the expense of the environment? Elsewhere, trees grown for paper could be made amenable to much more efficient processing, reducing both energy usage and toxic chemical bleach（漂白劑） in waste water from paper mills．The most significant GM applications will be ones that help lessen the problem of agriculture , which accounts for 38percent of the world’s landmass and is crowding out natural ecosystems and species habitats．

       Chances are, farmers will continue to grow their polluting organic pork, their allergenic（引起過敏的）organic soy and their neurotoxin（神經(jīng)毒素） sprayed organic apples．Worse still, they will make sure that no one else gets a choice in the matter of improving the conditions of life on earth—unless, that is, others rise up and demand an alternative．

36．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

       A．Pigs bring more destruction than benefit to human beings．

       B．No other countries have the higher percentage of pig-to-human than East Asia．

       C．The pork production has increased to 70％ in China．

       D．The pollution brought by pigs is a killer to the creature of the sea．

37．The reason accounting for the hesitation to accept the idea of the Enviropig is__________．

       A．the poor technology                          B．the high cost

       C．the moral concept                              D．the doubt from the public

38．What does the underlined word “quandary” mean?

       A．a(chǎn)n agreement                               B．a(chǎn) negotiation

       C．a(chǎn) dilemma                                    D．a(chǎn)n adventure

39．The negative influence brought by the traditional agriculture is_________-．

       A．more living space occupation                  B．more crop improvement

       C．more food production                        D．more chemical application

40．What is the best title of the passage?

       A．How to Raise Pigs                             B．Whether to choose the GM Foods

       C．What’s GM Foods                              D．The Pollution Brought by Pigs

       When the sun is up in Amsterdam, the largest city in the Netherlands sits quietly on the Amstel River ．You can rent a bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi．

       And while you are there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city．Don’t worry about getting lost．Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are happy to help you with directions．

       And you will notice that half the people in streets are on bicycles．They rent for US $17 to $20 for a whole day．

       Amsterdam also has a good canal system．From anywhere between US $2 and $9．50, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise the “Venice of the North”．

       You can take in the picturesque canal house architecture: The rows of neat, narrow sour-story dwellings of brownstone with large windows are well worth seeing．Many of them are several centuries old．

       You might also want to jump out of the canal bus at the Museum Quarter and start walking．Masterpieces by Dutch artists such as Rembrandt, Bruegel, Van Gogh and others are on display at the Van Gogh Museum, Rembrandt House and others．

       The city has an appreciation of its historic post．One place to visit is the Anne Frank House in Nine Streets．It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II．Visitors can view Anne’s original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her family hid from the Nazis for two years．

       For a while, my neighborhood was taken ever by an army of joggers（慢跑者）．They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evenings．There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces．“Come on!” My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening．“You’ll feel great．”

       Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could．So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more．Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army, I’m not alone in my opinion．

       First of all, jogging is very hard on the body．Your legs and feet take a real pounding（追擊）running down a road for two or three miles．I developed foot, leg, and back problems．Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about．Jogging doesn’t kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me．

       Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging．Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn’t my idea of fun．Jogging is also a lonely pastime．Some joggers say, “I love being out there with just my thoughts．” Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt．

       And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn’t just the first week; it was practically every day for two months．I never got past the pain level, and pain isn’t fun．What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?

       I don’t jog any more, and I don’t think I ever will．I’m walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good．I bicycle to work when the weather is good．I’m getting exercise, and I’m enjoying it at the same time．I could never say the same for jogging, and I’ve found a lot of better ways to stay in shape．

26．From the first paragraph, we learn that in the writer’s neighborhood ______．

       A．people jogged only during the daytime       B．jogging provided a chance to get together

       C．jogging became very popular             D．Alex organized an army of joggers

27．The underlined word “them”（Paragraph 3） most probably refers to _____．

       A．physical weaknesses                                  B．heart attack  

      C．back problems                                         D．famous joggers

28．What was the writer’s attitude towards jogging in the beginning?

       A．He was very fond of it．                        B．He felt it was worth a try．

       C．He was strongly against it．                     D．He thought it must be painful．
