white lie with a good intention.bdear sir,just over six months ago, i saw an advertisement in the morning mail for a set of the complete works of william shakespeare. your company, cosmo books ltd , offered this set (eight books of plays and two books of poetry) at a “remarkable” price: fifteen pounds and fifty pence, including postage and packing. i had wanted a set of shakespeares plays and poems for some time, and these books looked particularly attractive, so i sent for them.two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of works of charles dickens which i had not ordered. so i returned the dickens books to you, with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of shakespeare. two more weeks passed. then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of shakespeare, the same set of novels by dickens and a six book set of the plays of moliere, in french. since i do not read french, these were of no use to me at all. however, i could not afford to post all these books back to you, so i wrote to you right away instructing you to come and collect all the books that i did not want, and asking you not to send any other books until further notice.you did not reply to that letter. instead, you sent me a bill for forty two pounds, and a set of the plays of schiller, in german. since then, a new set of books has arrived every two weeks, the works of goethe, the poems of milton, the plays of strindberg; i hardly know what i have. the books are still all in their boxes, in the garage, and my car has to stand in the rain outside.please send no more books, send no more bills, send no more angry letters demanding payment. just send one large lorry and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of shakespeare for which i have paid. yours faithfully, simon walker55. simon walkers main purpose of writing the letter is to .a. show his anger to cosmo books ltd.b. argue about sending him books he had not orderedc. advise readers not to order books from cosmo books ltd.d. urge cosmo books ltd. to take away the books he had not ordered56. the advertisement that mr. walker saw in the morning mail

that they have not sentd. mr. walker has not received the books that he ordered58. the tone（语气）of the letter is that of .a. regret b. annoyancec. respect d. humorcof all the websites, one that has attracted attention recently is myspace. corn. most of this attention has come from the media and tells every reason why the website should be shut down. the threat of internet predators （掠夺者） is indeed a tough reality, but shutting down the site is not the answer. if myspace. corn were shut down, another site would take its place very quickly . therefore, the right way is to teach teens how to use the site safely and educate them about who may be predators and how to avoid themthe key to staying safe on the internet is to make sure that your profile （个人资料）is securethe simplest way is to change the privacy setting on your profile to private, which can protect the information so that only the people on your friend list can view it. although this is effective , it is not perfectpredators can find ways to view your profile if they really want to, whether through hacking in or figuring out their way onto your friend listthus, you should never post too much personal information. some people actually post their home and school addresses, date of birth , age and all the other personal information, often letting predators know exactly where they will be and whenthe safest information is your first name and province. anything more is basically inviting a predator into your lifeanother big issue is photos. i suggest never posting your own photos and never posting a photo of a friend online without asking permissionmost importantly, never, under any circumstances, agree to a real - life meeting with anyone you meet onlineno matter how well you think you know this person, there are no guarantees that they have told the truthbut you could feel free to chat with people you meet on the site, but just remember that not everyone is who they say they arehopefully, the next time you edit your profile, you 11 be more informed about the dangers of internet predators and take the steps to defend yourself59. kids can avoid web predators successfully by _a. attracting more public attentionb. shutting down the website myspace. cornc. showing the kids ways to try other sitesd. recognizing and getting away from them60. the safest basic personal information that you can share online is _a. your home address and birthdayb. your school address and your first namec. your first name and provinced. your province and cell phone number61. we can learn from the passage that _a. not everybody you meet online is honest and reliableb. it is proper to post a photo of a friend online c. it is not safe chatting with grown - ups on the websited. your friends can not view your personal profile either62. what could be the best title of this passage?a. web safety for teens b. personal safetyc. web hackers in the pastd. predators tricksdwomen who think they are not getting enough beauty sleep should not worryresting for between five and six hours a night are more likely to live longer, research claims.those who get slightly less than the healthy recommended amount of seven hours tend to live longer than those who sleep much more. while adults are advised to have at between seven and nine hours a night to stay healthy, many end up getting much less.this latest study involving 459 elderly women in america found that those who slept for between five and six a night had the longest survival rates. in their first study they worked out peoples sleeping habits using activity monitors, which are able to tell whether a person is awake or asleep by how much they move and then count up the overall hours of sleep a night. last year the researchers tried to get back in touch with all the women 14 years later to find out whether they were still alive. they discovered that those who had more than six hours a night or less than five were far less likely to be alive today.professor daniel kripke said: “the surprise was that when sleep was measured objectively, the best survival was observed among women who slept 5 to 6 hours. women who slept less than five hours a night or more than 6 hours were less likely to be alive at the 14-year follow-up.” he added: “this means that women who sleep as little as five to six hours have nothing to worry about since that amount of sleep is obviously consistent with excellent survival.”around one third of the uk adult population regularly sleeps five hours or less a night. but many successful figures of the past have been known to get much less. long-term studies show that those who drop down to five hours or fewer face a 70 percent extra risk of dying from all causes.63. it is traditionally agreed that_.a. the longer sleep one has, the healthier he will be b. seven hours is enough to keep fitc. wom
