of carrying the news. there are serious papers for those who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad. there are popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information.the london newspaper that is best known outside great britain is probably the times. it began in 1785, and has a high reputation for believable news and serious opinions on the news. it calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. its leading articles give the opinions of the editors, not those of the owners of the paper.letters to the editor are printed in the newspaper. these parts of the times are always interesting. most of the letters are serious subjects. but from time to time there will be long letters on the subject which is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people, compared with manners of thirty years ago.41. if you want to get

special for its variety of features. beautiful sandy beaches, active volcanoes, a great canyon（山谷） and special history and culture add up to create its famously romantic atmosphere. formed by volcanoes（火山） at the bottom of the sea, the hawaii islands are like a necklace in the middle of the pacific ocean, 6,000 kilometers off the west coast of mexico. there are eight main islands in the group hawaii (or big island), maui, kahoolawe, lanai, molokai, oahu, kauai, and niihau.the youngest and biggest island, also called hawaii was formed 430,000 years ago and is still growing. kauai, the oldest was formed 5.1 million years ago. for tourists, the sight of the lava that still flows from some of the volcanoes down to the sea, is a major attraction.hawaii is the newest and smallest state in the us. in 1900 the islands joined the us. in modern history it will always be remembered for the attack on pearl harbor by the japanese air force in 1941.about 1,000 years ago the islands were settled by polynesians. captain james cook led the first group of westerners there in 1778.native hawaiians have a special culture and languages. although nowadays english is the official language of hawaii, folk music and dancing are still widely practiced. the traditional dance of the islands is the hula, a hawaiian word that means dance.hawaiis reputation for romance was spread when hollywood started to use its typical music in movies in the 1960s. today, hawaii is famous for its mix of cultures. chinese, japanese and filipinos all live there.chinese arrived in the islands as early as the late 18th century. dr sun yatsen, the famous chinese revolutionary, grew up there.everyone in hawaii is a member of an ethnic minority and generally they exist in a pleasant harmony of races and cultures.44. which of the following directly led to the formation of the hawaii islands?a. the sea. b. the volcanoes.c. the violent meeting of the earths different plates.d. the nonstop turning of the

that people need for an acceptable standard of living. people with incomes below the poverty line are considered poor. economists(经济学家) study the causes of poverty in order to find solutions to the problem.as the general standard of living in the country rises, the poverty line does, too. therefore, even with todays relatively high standard of living, about 10% of the people in the united states are below the poverty line. however, if these people had stable jobs, they could have an acceptable standard of living. economists suggest several reasons why poor people do not have jobs.for one thing, more than half of the poor people in the united states are not qualified to work. over 40% of the poor people are children. by law, children less than 16 years old cannot work in many industries. a large number of poor people are old. many companies do not hire people over 65 years old, the normal retirement age.some poor adults do not look for jobs for a variety of personal reasons: they are sick; they do not have any motivation. they have family problems, or they do not believe that they can find a job.other poor people look for a job but cannot find one. many poor adults never went to high school. therefore, when they look for jobs, they have few skills that they can offer.at the present time, the government thinks it can reduce poverty in the country in the following ways.first, if the national economy grows, businesses and industries hire more workers. some of the poor who are qualified to look for jobs may find employment. then they will no longer be below the poverty line.second, if society invests（投资）in the poor, the poor will become more productive. if the government spends money on social programs, education, and training for poor people, the poor will have the skills to offer. then it is more likely that they can find jobs.finally, if the government distributes societys income differently, it raises some poor people above the poverty line. the government collects taxes from the non-poor and gives money to the poor. these payments to the poor are called welfare. in 1975 over 18 million people in the united states received welfare.some economists are looking for better solutions to the poverty problem. however, at the present time, many people depend on welfare for a minimally acceptable standard of living.47. most of the american poor people are not qualified for employment because_.a. they do not have any motivation to work b. they are not very self-confident c. they are too young or too old to work d. they have physical and family problems48. which of the following is not true?a. about 10% of the americans live a poor life. b. poor people are those who live below the poverty line. c. the poverty line rises as the general standard of living rises. d. the poverty line tends to be at the same level.49. more than 40% of the poor people are children. this is mainly because _. a. they do not have enough motivation b. they are so young that they are deprived（剥夺）of chances to work c. they fail to get enough educationd. they are very poor in health50. we may conclude from the passage that _.a. better solutions to the poverty problem are not yet found b. welfare will enable people to be rich c. poor people are bound（注定）to go out of the poverty line if they have chances to do business d. employment is the best solution to the poverty problem。单词拼写（10题1分）51.the shop has a good _(名声) because it has never cheated customers.52.lu xun is a famous (当代的) writer.53. the girl (采纳) my suggestion to solve
