one-in-a-million feat of archery (射箭) after splitting one arrow with another. what makes the shot even more surprising is that tilly trotter is blind. the 74-year-old grandmother succeeded in the shot, known as a “robin hood”, at a practice session (集训) of the wellington bowmen in somerset.mrs. trotter, who has been an archer for two years at the invitation of her granddaughter charlotte, said, “the second arrow made such a noise going into the back of previous arrow that i thought i had hit the ceiling or done some expensive damage.”“then i heard people jumping up and down shouting that id done a robin hood. it was a one-in-a-million shot and a bit of a fluke really.” mrs. trotter, from effulge, north devon, lost most of her sight following a head injury 17 years ago. “i can see movement but i have no central vision,” she said. her husband, tony, is key to her success, telling her how near her shots are to the target each time she shoots. “he isnt allowed to tell me to aim left or right before i let loose an arrow,” mrs. trotter said. “i can only make my own adjustments to my aim before i shoot.”she may regard the shot as a fluke, but she also won a gold medal at the british blind sports national champion-ship last year. peter jones, a spokesman for the grand national archery society, said, “its a very rare feat like getting two holes in one on the same round of golf.”36. before hearing people cheering, mrs. trotter thought that _.a. she had hit another arrowb. she must have done a robin hood c. she had hit the center of the targetd. she had done something wrong37. what does the underlined word “fluke” in paragraph 3 mean?a. a lucky thing. b. a big mistake.c. a fantastic feat. d. an unforgettable experience.38. from the passage we can infer that mrs. trotter _.a. was blind all her lifeb. was strict with herself in practicingc. has been an archer for many yearsd. wanted to recover her eyesight by shooting arrowsbimagine a burglar with the key to your house and the code to turn off your alarm system. he could steal from you without you knowing anything happened. this could be happening on your computer right now.experts warn that unseen cyber-thieves use “spyware” programs to look around computers secretly, stealing personal data and passwords, and tracing every keystroke (按键) users make.illegal acts spyware itself is not illegal but is often used for illegal purposes. “people have no idea that someone can access their keystrokes. when they find out, theyre going to say, i dont want that to happen,” said u.s. legislator (立法委员) john shimkus, a member of the house committee that handled the internet spyware prevention act. “being able to clearly identify whats getting downloaded and having it where the consumer can disable (使无效) it is critically important.”more than spying spyware can get into a computer in many ways, often secretly downloading when users are installing other software online. spyware can bombard (提供过多信息) people with pesky pop-up ads while they surf the web. it can even cause computers to crash. but hackers, for whom spyware is a key tool, can do far greater damage. although anti-spyware bills in recent years have gone nowhere in the u.s. senate, shimkus thinks that pattern will change. “in this world and age, privacy is a major concern to the vast majority of americans,” shimkus said.common signs you have spyware* barrages (接二连三的一堆) of pop-up ads.* new and unexpected toolbars appear on your internetbrowser (浏览器).* random error messages.* a sudden or repeated change in your internet home page.* a sluggish (缓慢的) processing speed or increase in sudden computer crashes.what you can do to protect yourself* update your web browser to get the latest security fixes.* download free software only from websites you know and trust.* never click “agree” or “ok” to close a pop-up window. instead, click the “x” in the upper right-hand corner of the window.* be wary of popular “free” music and movie file-sharing programs.* take time to read the licensing agreement before downloading any software. if its hard to find, or difficult to understand, err on the side of caution.39. we can infer from john shimkus words that _.a. internet users should know how to download a software and cancel it clearlyb. computer users realize that somebody can access their keystrokesc. the situation of anti-spyware bills will be changed in the futured. americans pay little attention to their privacy40. all of the following are common signs people have spyware except _.a. sudden computer crashes b. many pop-up adsc. a repeated change in internet home paged. a sudden fast processing speed41. when a pop-up window appears, you should _.a. agree to enter it b. see it throughc. click “ok” d. close it immediately42. what would be the best title for the passage?a. the definition of spyware b. computer hackersc. conquer spyware d. cyber-thieveschoneybees are disappearing for unknown reasons around the united states. last winter, bees disappeared from 23 percent of american beekeeping businesses. causes of the phenomenon have remained a mystery. now, scientists from several universities and the united states department of agriculture say they have a possible explanation for the bee decline. it is a little-known virus called israeli acute-paralysis virus (iapv). the virus kills bees. researchers in israel first described it in 2004. but until now, bee experts havent paid much attention to it.when trying to find out why the bees were disappearing, a research team at columbia university studied bee colonies (群体), some with and the others without decline. their research turned up large numbers of two types of fungi (真菌) once suspected of causing the bee decline. the research results, however, showed that the fungi were almost as common in colonies without a decline as they were in colonies with a decline. the researchers concluded that the two fungi probably werent the cause.studies of the presence of iapv, however, showed more interesting information. in those studies, done by a team at pennsylvania state university in university park, the virus showed up in 83 percent of samples from colonies with symptoms. only 5 percent of samples from symptomless colonies had it. scientists still dont know whether iapv can single-handedly cause the bee decline. they believe that even if the virus is making colonies sick, it could have a partner in crime. its possible, for instance, that insects or chemicals in the environment weaken bees, making them more likely to catch iapv. scientists are still trying to figure out how iapv came to the united states. the united states currently allows bee products to be imported from canada, australia, and new zealand. if it turns out that this trade is spreading disease, the rules might eventually change.43. according to the passage, iapv is a virus that _.a. is well-known to doctors and scientistsb. is dangerous to animals and human beingsc. was first found by australian researchersd. hasnt attracted much attention 44. the underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph probably means _.a. iapv is not the only cause for the bee declineb. there must be something that is the real causec. the virus could also cause other damagesd. the virus may be caused by the polluted environment45. from the third and fourth paragraphs, we know researchers draw their conclusions by means of _.a. calculatingb. examiningc. investigatingd. comparing46. what still remains unknown to american scientists according to the passage?a. how to kill iapv.b. how iapv came to the united states.c. whether bee products should be imported.d. how to change the rules of bee products trade.dann arbor, mich. having a husband creates an extra seven hours a week of housework for women, according to a study of us families. but for men, the picture is very different. the findings are part of a detailed study of housework trends, based on the diary data conducted from 1968 to 2005 at the u-m institute for social research (isr).it is a well-known pattern. theres still a significant reallocation (重新分配) of labor that occurs at marriage men tend to work more outside the home, while women take on more of the household labor. certainly therere all kinds of individual differences here, but in general, this is what happens after marriage. and the situation gets worse for women when they have children.overall, the amount of housework done by us women has dropped greatly since 1976, while the amount of housework done by men has increased. in 1976, women did an average of 26 hours of housework a week, compared with about 17 hours in 2005. men did about six hours of housework a week in 1976, compared with about 13 hours in 2005.but when the researchers looked at just the last 10 years, comparing how much housework single men and women in their 20s did in 1996 with how much they did in 2005 if they stayed single versus if they got married, they found a slightly different pattern. both the men and the women who got married did more housework than those who stayed single. marriage is no longer a mans path to less housework.single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework about 12 hours a week on average, while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most about 21 hours a week. men showed a somewhat different pattern. older men did more housework than younger men, but single men did more in all age groups than married men. in addition, the number of children also works.47. what does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?a. men have different life styles from women.b. having a wife can reduce husbands housework.c. men and women often like different pictures.d. men or husbands are often very lazy at home.48. what does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?a. women do more housework after marriage.b. a detailed study must be based on data.c. men and women do the same housework at marriage.d. women with children are in worse situation.49. which of the following charts shows the correct information of the third paragraph? housework done by men housework done by women hour houra.b. 1976 2005 1976 2005hour hourc.d. 1976 2005 1976 200550. what do we know from the fourth paragraph?a. marriage is important for both men and women.b. men will do less housework after marriage.c. men and women become unequal after marriage.d. both men and women do more housework after marriage.einside a japanese sushi (寿司) bar, a long train of plates passes before the eyes of customers. the elegant and colorful arrangements are a feast for the eyes, just as the sushi is a delight to the taste buds. while enjoying the wide variety of seafood creations, customers may wonder how this delicious treat ever came to be. it took centuries of japanese innovation to turn asias staple foods rice and fish into japans national cuisine (烹饪). prior to the days of refrigerators and sushi bars, fresh fish were wrapped in cooked rice and pressed between rocks in order to be fermented（发酵）. this process preserved the fish, but required many months and made the rice wrappings inedible. long waits and wasted rice were unacceptable to the japanese, who began wrapping their fish in vinegar-soaked rice. adding vinegar improved flavor and greatly reduced the time needed for fermentation. best of all, the new process didnt spoil the rice wrappings, which meant they could be eaten with the fish: sushi was born! fish fermented with vinegar rice became popular in japan, but a
