J. K. Rowling announced on Thursday the title for book seven Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Book seven in the Harry Potter series will pick up where book six, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, left off. With the last chapter of book seven, the magical adventures of Harry, Hermione, Ron, and friends will come to an end. “I am alternately delighted and worried,” says Rowling on her official Web site. She made the announcement of the book title on the Web site. Rowling is currently busy putting the finishing touches on the book. “Im now writing scenes that have been planned, in some cases, for a dozen years or even more,” says Rowling. Rowling adds that she has been working very hard on this final installment in the series. With the title now set, she assured fans that she will indeed finish this book. “I both want, and dont want, to finish this book,” Rowling says. Its not too late to catch up on the rest of the series. You can also reread your favorite books while waiting for the last one. The publication date for book seven has not been set. To make the waiting a little easier, theres always the next Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which is scheduled for release in July 2007.56. Whats the name of the last issue of the Harry Potter series?A. Harry Potter and J. K. RowlingB. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows C. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince D. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix 57. Muggles, Harry, Hermione and Ron could probably be _. A. the best friends of J. K. Rowling B. the characters of the Harry Potter series C. the fans of Harry Potter D. the publishers of the Harry Potter series58. Which statement is true according to the passage? A. Book Seven of Harry Potter series will be published before July 2007.B. Harry Potter series will be published on the Website. C. Book Seven is being written as planned years ago. D. Harry Potter will come to the end of his life. 59. In the last paragraph, the writer _.A. persuades readers into reading their favorite book rather than Harry Potter seriesB. states that seeing the Harry Potter movies is the best way to catch up the seriesC. encourages readers to act out a play following the Harry Potter moviesD. advises readers to wait for the publication of Book Seven patientlyBYou are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is blown up in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stunt girls, too. 60. From the passage, we know that stuntmen are those who _. A. often dress up as actors B. prefer to lead dangerous lives C. often fight each other for their lives D. often perform seemingly dangerous actions 61. When a stuntman falls from a high building, _. A. his life is endangered B. he needs little protection C. his safety is generally all right D. he will be covered with a mattress 62. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? A. Strength. B. Exactness. C. Speed. D. Carefulness. 63. What can be inferred from the authors example of the Norwegian stuntman? A. Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. B. The percentage of serious accidents is high. C. Parachutes must be of good quality. D. The cliff is too high. COn Saturday, millions of people around the world will celebrate Saint Patricks Day, which honors Patron Saint (or main religious figure) of Ireland. Communities across the United States will host parades, parties, and other festivities to mark the occasion.This year, cities like Boston, New York, and Chicago have organized massive events celebrating Saint Patricks Day.

Boston keeps its parade rolling for three hours or more. It is the nations second-largest parade. The city will also salute one of its most famous former residents, President John F. Kennedy, by opening the exhibit A Journey Home: John F. Kennedy and Ireland, at his official library.

At twenty-nine Milton set off for a travel on the continent. He traveled in France, Switzerland and Italy, winning the friendship of many artists and scientists, including Galileo, the famous Italian scientist who suffered for his discovery in prison.

After the Restoration (复辟), his books were burnt, and he himself avoided being killed because of his blindness.John Milton was not only a brave revolutionary but also a great poet.

These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible (有责任感的) citizens. They give love and care. These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day people wear carnations (康乃馨). Ared one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery (墓地).On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones boughtin stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.72.
