Dear friends,

  Welcome to our school！It' s a great honor for me to say something about China' s Shenzhou VII-spaceship.

Manhattan is the heart of New York City. It is really an island, which is only 13 miles long and 2 miles wide. Seen from the air, it look like a long finger. From the sea it is just like a picture we often see.

Manhattan has some wonderful sights. What is the easiest way to see them?  First, get a map of New York City, which is often supplied free at gas stations and tourists offices. You can take a bus tour, but a better way to see the sights is to walk, and you’ll walk with your head thrown back so that you can look at the tall buildings rising like steep cliff(懸崖) on__________ of the streets.

It is not easy to get lost here. The streets of New York from squares called blocks. Nearly all the streets are in the straight lines, running from east to west. Those from north to south are called avenues. Most of the avenues and streets have only numbers. The famous fifth Avenue is the dividing line between the east and west in Manhattan. Here you’ll see the Empire State Building. On the 102^nd floor, over 1,400 feet above the ground, it is possible for you to see the area in which one in ten of all the people in America live. You can also look down at the other huge skyscrapers, the United Nations’ buildings, the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像) in the harbor, Broadway---the longest street in the world but not the straightest, and the greatest ships in the world’s biggest port.

 The man could not believe that there could be a greater archer than him，but he went and found the old man and he was! For three years he learned from him．Then one day，when he thought he had learned everything，the thought arose in him：“If I kill this old man，then I will be the greatest archer．”

The old man had gone to cut wood and he was coming back carrying wood on his shoulder．The young man hid behind a tree，waiting to kill him．He shot an arrow．The old man took a small piece of wood and threw it．It struck the arrow and the arrow turned back and wounded the young man very deeply．The old man came，took out the arrow and said, “I knew that some day or other you were going to do this．That’s why I have not taught you this secret．There is no need to kill me．My Master is still alive，and I’m nothing before him．You must be with him for at least thirty years．And he is very old，So go fast!

Electrical devices (儀器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking. British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device.

  The device connects to a person's knee.  As the person walks, the device captures energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes.

  There are several possible uses for the device. Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起搏器). It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.

  The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less costly version. An improved version should be ready in one year.

  The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly twenty-five percent of people around the world live without electric power.

  A similar product was invented in 2005 by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania. He created a bag carried on a person's back that also produces power from walking. The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag. But the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms.

6. The second paragraph mainly talks about _______.

A. who developed the device

B. how the device works

C. several possible uses for the devices

D. how much electricity the device can produce

7. What is the disadvantage of the experimental version of the device?

A. It is too heavy for the walker to bear.

B. It is too complex for people to use.

C. It will slow down one's walking speed.

D. It is too dear for most people to afford.

8. Compared with the device designed by Larry Rome, this new device _______.

A. produces power without adding more loads to the walker

B. can produce more power in a much shorter time

C. needs to be equipped with a battery

D. can help the walker walk faster

9. From the passage, we can learn that the electrical device can _______.

A. help housewives operate the micro-wave oven

B. make it much easier for us to go online

C. produce more electricity than that invented by Larry Rome

D. be applied in medicine to operate heart pacemakers

10. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. First device powered by walking will soon be on the market

B. Advanced technology brings in a new way to operate heart pacemakers

C. Device gives new meaning to the idea of power walking

D. Human energy will become a main source of electricity

It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That’s more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.

“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and siren(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”

But Hyde couldn’t go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.

Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地). At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn’t needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panick about.

“Just about that time,” Hyde says, “ I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. He’s blown his engine. Now he had to stop.”

“After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn’t have a driver’s license

That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty—a thousand dollars for the new engine—not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.

1. The meaning of “panicked” in paragraph 2 is related to _______.

A. happy   B. fear   C. anger    D. hate

2. Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?

A. Because he was racing with another driver on the road.

B. Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.

C. Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.

D. Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.

3. Which of the following statements is true?

A. Someone else was taking care of the injured person.

B. The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.

C. Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.

D. The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.

4. The driver of the Firebird _________.

A. took a wrong turn on the way    B. had some trouble with his car

C. was stopped by the police officer   D. paid for the expenses of the accident

5. What is probably the best title for the article?

A. Losing His Way?     B. Going My Way?

C. Fun All the Way?     D. Help on the Way?

The night started our ordinarily enough. Jack and Tara，our  1  ，were in their small beds surrounded by toy animals. My husband，Pat，and I went to sleep  2  .

 3 after midnight，Jack quietly touched me. “Mommy，I want to stay with you. I promise I won’t take much room.” I shifted  4  to make room. My son soon fell asleep.

An hour later，Tara cried and I carefully went downstairs. “Mommy，my  5  is all stuffed up (堵住)．I can’t really breathe very well. Will you please  6  with me a little while？” Tara doesn’t often get up at night，  7  I decided to be there for her. She soon fell asleep. I returned to my own bed. I was determined to sleep. But to my  8  ，I found Jack

sleeping on my side of the bed. He looked so  9  that I couldn’t remove him. Quietly and carefully，I lay down between  10  and Jack.

I did manage to get some sleep  11  I heard Tara’s voice again. I returned to  12  Tara.

“Mom，please lie down with me a little bit. I had a bad dream，and I’m so  13  .”“Of course，honey. It was only a dream. Mommy’s here and  14  is okay.” We fell asleep  15  each other’s arms.

   Even in my sleepy state，I thought of  16  these nights of merry­go­round (一連串的繁忙活動(dòng)) will be over. In their place，my twins will be grown.  17  before I’m ready，our children's rooms will be much too  18  and empty. So it is especially on days when I’m worn out after a night on this mom’ s merry­go­round that I remind  19  that these very days and nights are，in fact，“the good old days”，ever so  20  .
