Acting legend (传奇) Elizabeth Taylor has passed away. She leaves behind her own life-long movie of ups and downs, marriage and divorce, and sickness and recovery. The world of entertainment is mourning (悼念) the death of the last classic movie star.
Taylor died of a kind of heart disease in Los Angeles at the age of 79. Taylor acted in more than 50 movies, including the children’s classic “National Velvet”, Oscar-winning ones “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” and “Butterfield 8”.
Fans gathered on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame to pay tribute (敬意) to the actress. They placed tributes on their star and recalled about highlights of her career.
Sandra, Hollywood, California, said, “Well, she just led an amazing life, and she went out with style.”
Phil Schuman, Reporter of KTTV in Los Angeles, said, “Well, I mean, her whole life story: child star, unusually beautiful, all the marriages, almost dying, then all of her great work with AIDS research, Michael Jackson’s best friend. It’s just a one-of-a-kind story, I think.”
Taylor was not only the most blessed actress, but also the most loyal of friends and supporter of homosexuals (同性恋) in Hollywood. She won a special Oscar, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award for her efforts to support AIDS research.
“Is this something that we can bear? No. The AIDS crisis (危机) is not over.” Taylor once said.
Taylor’s private life is also a legend. She was a star at age 12, a bride and a divorcee at 16, a superstar at 19 and a widow at 26. She has married 8 times. One of her former husbands, former U.S. Senator John Warner, 84, paid tribute to the late star during an event in Washington.

When Johnson called again, the manager received him very politely. “That is a most wonderful oil you brought us, Mr Johnson,” he said.
Johnson nodded his smooth, dark head. That was something he knew very well.
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” the manager admitted (成认).
Johnson nodded again. “No?” he said politely. Then he added, “But I think you will, sir. A very great deal of it.” He appeared to think for a moment. “I think you will find it will be on sale seven, perhaps, eight years from now.” He smiled.
The manager thought that was uncertain. He said, “It is better than our fish oils. I admit that.”
“So I am told, sir,” agreed Johnson.
“Have you any plans to produce it yourself, Mr Johnson?”
“Would I be showing it to you if I had?” Johnson smiled again.
“We might add some chemicals to one of our own fish oils,” said the manager.
“It would be expensive to do that, even if you could,” Johnson said gently. “Moreover,” he added, “I am told that this oil will be much cheaper than your best fish oils. Cheaper than any vegetable oil, in fact.”
“Perhaps,” said the manager. “Well, I suppose you want to make an arrangement, Mr Johnson. Shall we discuss it?”
“Of course,” said Johnson. “There are two ways of dealing with a situation of this sort. The usual one is to prevent it altogether or at least to delay (推迟) it as long as possible. That is, of course, the best way.”
The manager nodded. He knew plenty about all that.
“But I am so sorry for you, because, you see, that is not possible this time.”
The manager had his doubts, but all he said was an inquiring (asking) “Oh?”
“The other way,” continued Johnson, “is to produce yourself before the trouble starts.”
( )34. The manager thought of adding chemicals to his own fish oil to make it ______.
A. more special B. as good as the new oil
C. more different D. cheaper than the new oil
( )35. Johnson thought the manager ______.
A. didn’t know enough about the new oil B. would never know how to make good oil
C. had spent too much money on his own oil D. could not stop the new oil being made

A. the manager to buy it B. the manager to produce it
C. to produce it himself D. to make trouble
(C)
When you buy fresh-cut flowers, do you think about where they came from? You might think they were grown somewhere nearby. In fact, the cut flower trade is more and more international. Today, thanks to airplanes and high-tech cooling systems, even the most delicate (脆弱的) flower can be exported, and sold in a flower shop thousands of kilometres away from where it was grown.
The Netherlands (荷兰) controls the world cut flower trade. It deals with 60 percent of the world’s cut flowers. And its auction (拍卖) houses are very large indeed---Aalsmeer, near Amsterdam, is the largest flower market in the world. About120 soccer fields would fill its main building. Nineteen million flowers are sold here every day, including roses, lilies, and of course, tulips.
The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower types. Dutch (荷兰的) companies and the government invest (投资) a large amount of money in flower research. Their scientists look for ways to lengthen a flower’s vase life, to strengthen flowers to prevent them from being damaged while traveling, and also to strengthen the natural pleasant smell of the flowers.
Although Netherlands plays a lead role in the flower market, there are many places with a better climate for growing flowers, and the climate of Ecuador (厄瓜多尔) is almost perfect. Mauricio Davalos is the man who starts Ecuador’s flower industry. “Our biggest edge is nature,” he says. “Our roses are the best in the world.” With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day, Ecuador’s roses are known for their large heads and long, straight stems. Every year, Ecuador sells about 500 million flowers to the U.S. alone. The industry has brought work chances and a stronger economy to areas of the country. “My family has TV now. There are radios,” says Yolanda Quishpe, 20, who picked roses for four years.
To others, the increasingly international flower trade is very bad news. In recent years, local growers in the U.S. faced huge competition from international flower companies, and many lost their business. Lina Hale, an independent rose grower in California, said her father had foreseen the situation in the 1980s. “I see a freight (货
运 ) train coming down the track,” he warned her, “and it’s coming straight towards us.”
( )37. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Fresh-cut flowers can’t survive a long trip.
B. You should buy flowers from local flower shops.
C. Flowers you buy may come from faraway places.
D. It’s important to think about where you buy your flowers.
( )38. Which of the following is mentioned as large investors in flower research?
A. Dutch companies and the government.
B. Airplane and high-tech cooling system.
C. American companies and their government.
D. Ecuador’s local flower growers and pickers.
( )39. The word edge in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .
A. end B. difference C. corner D. advantage
( )40. What did Lina Hale’s father mean when he said, “I see a freight (货运) train coming down the track”?
A. He thought customers wouldn’t want roses.
B. He knew that his business would be influenced.
C. He could actually see a train coming towards him.
D. He thought his track would be crashed by the freight train.

The worst thing is to do n 58 . Laura Mills, a teenager from London, agrees. ‘Problems and worries are normal in life,’ says Laura. ‘But I think talking to someone helps a lot.

Robert Hunt, a social worker from England, feels the s 60 way. ‘In English we say that a problem shared is a problem halved. As a social worker, I have to agree with this. We should never run away from our problems. We should always try to s 61 them. Usually, the first step is to f 62 someone we can talk to.’
Even Mr. Hunt agrees that this doesn’t need to be an expert(专家) like h 63 . We can talk to our friends, teachers or our parents. We often forget that our parents have m 64 experience than us, and are always there to help us. The main thing is to know that i 65 you look for help, you’ll find it.

According to the law, collecting, using, trading personal information will be strictly managed. One key rule is that those who deal with personal information should let users know and get their agreement. The rules are even stricter for sensitive information.
