I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites. They were completely different from my own family, yet I felt at home with them immediately. Jane White and I became friends at school, and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin.

In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened.

“Who did this?” my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen.

“This is all your fault, Katharine,” my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke.

From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table.

But the Whites didn’t worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.

In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixteen. Proud of having a new driver’s license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met.

The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah’s new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didn’t see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car.

Jane was killed immediately.

I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that I’ve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.

When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amy’s leg was broken. They hugged us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girls’ tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches（拐杖）.

To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, “We’re so glad that you’re alive.”

I was astonished. No blame. No accusations.

Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.

Mrs. White said, “Jane’s gone, and we miss her terribly. Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister’s death? ”

They were right. Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. She’s also a mother of two little girls of her own, the oldest named Jane.

41. How did the author’s parents differ from the Whites?

 A. The author’s parents were less caring.

 B. The author’s parents were less loving.

 C. The author’s parents were less friendly.

 D. The author’s parents were less understanding.

42. How did the accident occur?

 A. Amy didn’t stop at a crossroads and a truck hit their car.

 B. Amy didn’t know what to do when she saw the stop sign.

 C. Amy didn’t slow down so their car ran into a truck.

 D. Amy didn’t get off the highway at a crossroads.

43. The accident took place in ______.

 A. Florida

 B. California

 C. South Carolina

 D. New York

44. The Whites did not blame Amy for Jane’s death because ______.

 A. they didn’t want Amy to feel ashamed and sorry for the rest of her life

 B. Amy was badly injured herself and they didn’t want to add to her pain

 C. they didn’t want to blame their children in front of others

 D. Amy was their youngest daughter and they loved her best

45. From the passage we can learn that ______.

 A. Amy has never recovered from the shock

 B. Amy changed her job after the accident

 C. Amy lost her memory after the accident

 D. Amy has lived quite a normal life

C

Scientists can figure out a movie’s emotional tone from the gasps (喘气) of its audience. These gases could point the way to a subtle form of human communication, a new study suggests.

“When you see a movie, you can hear the music and see the pictures. However, you don’t realize there are chemical signals in the air. And they, too, could be affecting you,” says Williams, who led the study. As an atmospheric chemist, he studies the chemical makeup of the air around us.

Williams started out measuring the air in a soccer stadium. He noticed that levels of carbon dioxide and other gases changed wildly whenever the crowd cheered. That got him wondering---Could the gases people breathe out be influenced by emotions?

To find out, he went to the movies.

 Williams and his coworkers measured air samples collected over six weeks in two movie theaters. Overall, 9,500 movie goers watched 16 films. They included a mix of comedy, romance, action and horror films. Among them were The Hunter Games, Catching Fire, Carrie, and Walking with Dinosaurs. The researchers gave scenes from the movies such labels as “suspense”, “laughter”, and “crying”. Then they looked for hundreds of chemicals in the air that showed up as people were watching particular movie scenes.

And certain scenes had distinct chemical “fingerprints”. Scenes that had people laughing or on the edge of their seats were especially distinctive. During screenings of The Hunger Games, levels of carbon dioxide and isoprene got to the highest at two suspenseful moments. Because isoprene is related to muscle movement, the researchers think tense movie moments likely led to its peak. Williams and his colleagues think the increase in carbon dioxide was due to the viewers’ increased pulse and breathing rates.

 Scientists need more data to make stronger links between human emotions and what’s in their breath. But Williams can see potential practical uses. Companies, for instance, could quickly measure the air during tests to see how people feel about new products. He pictures future studies recording other body variables (变数) as well. These might include heart rate and body temperature, for instance. “It’s something to find out.”

46. What chemicals in the air are important to Williams’s recent research?

 A. Those in the natural air.

 B. Those from the theaters.

 C. Those from audience’s breath.

 D. Those from people’s gasps.

47. What was Williams’s purpose of the research?

 A. To know more about the makeup of the air.

 B. To see whether people’s emotion affects the air they breathe out.

 C. To study how greatly the movies influence people’s emotion.

 D. To find out how the air changes in a crowded stadium.

48. What do we know about the experiment?

 A. Each participant watched about 16 films.

 B. The movies were a mixture of comedy and romance.

 C. The films were labeled with three main features.

D. The samples were taken in two theaters over six weeks.

49. In which situation are people most emotional?

 A. Horrible moments. 

 B. Romantic moments

 C. Suspenseful situations.

 D. Exciting situations..

50. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

 A. Williams thinks more measures should be taken for practical uses.

 B. Human emotions are strongly related to the chemicals humans breathe out.

 C. People’s temperature will be measured when they’re watching movies.

 D. Companies will spend much money testing their new product.

D

Moscow city authorities have begun using comics with characters from Russian fairytales to explain to migrants how they should behave. They say a 100-page guide is needed to “maintain a positive image” of the city and could help reduce “tensions” between natives and migrants. But some people have pointed out that foreign immigrants and natives may be viewed as antagonists in the manual (手册). They think immigrants and natives should live together in harmony.

Russians and immigrants have repeatedly clashed in Moscow recently. Many immigrants from ex-Soviet republics in Central Asia, the Caucasus and North Caucasus, arrive in Moscow every year, attracted by the capital’s job opportunities and relatively high salaries. A significant number of them work in the Russian capital illegally.

The new guide in Russian seeks to explain the “dos” and “don’ts” to immigrants. They are urged not to cause trouble, by staring at women, or eating or talking loudly on the streets. They are also warned that the police may routinely stop them to check their documents.

In the manual, Russia’s famous “Three warriors” are meant to represent the city’s law enforcement agencies, while Prince Yuri Dolgoruky (a historical character) is used for tours around Moscow. Meanwhile, Vasilisa the Wise and The Snow Maiden test the reader on Russia’s language and history. A special section of the book explains the importance of following Moscow’s strict residency and employment rules, stressing that immigrants could otherwise be deported (驱逐出境) or banned from entry.

The manual was written primarily for illegal immigrants, Alexander Kalinin, who heads the group Support for Working Migrants in Moscow, told BBC Russian.

“We want to raise their level of law awareness,” he added.

“In the beginning immigrants had been identified as representatives of different nationalities, but the book’s authors later decided to drop this idea so as “not to offend anyone”, said Mr. Kalinin.

“The old conflict between Russian heroes and non-Slavic invaders appears again,” Yevgeny Varshaver, a migration expert told BBC Russian. He also suggested that the language used in the book would be “difficult” to understand for some immigrants who were not native Russian speakers.

51. The underlined word in Paragraph 1 can probably be replaced by ______.

 A. strangers  B. opponents 

 C. competitors  D. acquaintances

52. People from other countries come to Moscow ______.

 A. to enjoy the fine climate

 B. to have a new lifestyle

 C. to find occupations with good income

 D. to experience a new culture

53. What can we learn about the manual?

 A. It may not make immigrants and natives live in harmony.

 B. It is full of funny stories from fairy tales.

 C. It aims to protect the rights of locals and immigrants.

 D. It sets strict and cruel rules to immigrants.

54. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

 A. The book will make it easy for foreign immigrants to read.

 B. Foreign immigrants may find the manual interesting to read.

 C. The Russian language is hard for foreign immigrants to learn.

 D. Foreign immigrants may have difficulty reading the manual.

55. Which of the following would be the best title of the text?

 A. Ways to help foreign immigrants to settle in Russia.

 B. More and more foreign immigrants work in Moscow.

 C. Moscow fairy tale comics to help immigrants behave.

 D. Characters from Russian fairy tales attract public attention.

Why not carry on her good work?

I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I choose to study at university? I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China.

By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi, a specialist in women’s diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean, healthy and free from sickness. Why did she write that? Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice? I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.

Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time. That was a generation when girls’ education was always placed second to boys’. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else? Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a day’s work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.

By now I could not wait to find out more about her. I discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her own. Instead she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely delivered. By this time I was very excited. Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work? It was still not too late for me to improve my studies, prepare for the university entrance examinations, and…..

56. When and where did the author read the article about Lin Qiaozhi? (no more than 5 words)

57. For what purpose did Lin Qiao zhi write a little book about how to look after babies? (no more than 20 words)

58. What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean? (no more than 10 words)

59. What does the author think are the most important qualities that a successful doctor should have? (no more than 5 words)

60. Do you think the author will study at a medical college? Why or why not? (no more than 20 words)

Dear Li Jin

How are you? When you are reading this letter, you have already been a university student. Have you adapted to your new life?

Looking back to several months before, you can easily recall the unforgettable memories when you spared no efforts to prepare for the College Entrance Examination. I believe your hard work have paid off, and you are admitted to your ideal university. If you still regret not working to your best, make sure to treasure the present time, so you must achieve what you want in the future.

In the next four years, I hope you should pay much of your attention to the academic work. You can, of course, take part in some activities to improve your abilities and make more friends. Perhaps, you may also find a girlfriend and taste the feeling of falling in love.

I think you are well prepared to live a colorful life in the university.
