unexpectedly, the interview was unbelievably _9_. the interviewer only said to them, “all of you are very super. please go home and wait for our _10_. we will tell you the _11_ in 3 days. good luck to

must think were fools.if movies were completely scientifically accurate, theyd probably be as interesting as a physics 101 lecture. in real life, there are no explosions in space, gas usually doesnt explode from a lit cigarette, and bruce willis / jackie chan / will smith would most likely be in a coma(昏迷) after getting kicked in the head.recently, the british newspaper the daily telegraph ran a humorous piece on unconvincing tech moments from some top movies. lets see what they are all about.telegraph writer tom chivers first example is from the end-of-the-world movie independence day, in which a character comes up with a virus capable of destroying windows, the computer system the alien(外星人的) spacecraft uses. “its a good thing they didnt have norton antivirus,” jokes chivers.its just one case of a movie that takes a lot of license with its science. another one chivers mentions is from star wars, where glowing beams of light traveling through space look very impressive. the problem is that in space there are no air particles(颗粒) for the light to reflect off. in reality, theyd not be seen, which wouldnt look so cool on the big screen.chivers second piece of star wars nonsense is the sound the fighters make in the movies: “ the bellow(咆哮) of an elephant mixed with a car driving on a wet road”. but sound needs a medium to travel through, like air. in space, there wouldnt actually be any sound at all.few people would deny that the mind-bending matrix films make for great viewing, but for chivers, the science in the movies is a little silly.and finally: as chivers points out, dan is not replaceable. but this bit of elementary genetics passed the makers of the 2002 bond film die another day by. in the film the villain(坏人) has “gene therapy” to change his appearance and his dna, which is completely impossible.36what does the text mainly deal with?a. plots of some famous movies. b. characters in space movies.c. popularity of space movies. d. mistakes made in some movies.37from the first two paragraphs we can know that some movie makers _.a. went against general knowledge of scienceb. didnt pay attention to the viewers real demandc. overestimated viewers appreciation of movies.d. didnt try their best to improve the quality of the movies.38what does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to?a. the newspapers. b. unconvincing tech momentsc. some top movies. d. heroes in the movies.39we can learn from paragraph 7 that _.a. most people like matrix filmsb. the truth of matrix films remains in doubtc. few people think matrix films sillyd. chivers thinks science is unacceptable“a very disruptive(调皮捣蛋的) six-year-old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand,” said one teacher. “ i broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs,” said another. many people have heard stories like this. but the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their potential, regardless of their parents wealth and class. and we recognize that, as a nation, it is a long way to achieve this goal. but with rights come responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of ignoring the latter.far too many children are behaving badly at school, even to the point of being violent to staff. this is terrible enough, but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behaviour of their parents.my members tell me that parents also come into school often and threaten staff and some staff have been attacked by a pupils parents. one father encouraged his child to start a fight on the playground before school started. a primary teacher reported that a parent shouted at him. we need to have a serious and sensible debate about the roles and responsibilities of parents and the support that they can reasonably expect of schools and teachers.children will not learn how to behave as social beings if they are stuck in front of the tv for hours every day. they need their parents to show an interest in them and to spend time with them, helping them to play with their peers(同龄人) and to learn the rules of social behavior.children are now arriving at school socially undeveloped, increasingly unable to dress themselves, unable to use the toilet properly, unable to hold a knife and fork and unused to eating at a table, mary bousted, general secretary of the association of teachers and lecturers, writes in todays observer. instead of taking responsibility themselves, too many parents expect teachers to control their childrens behaviour and wellbeing, she adds. bousted says one mother blamed staff when she discovered that her 16-year-old son was smoking.we are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. the bedroom, once a place to sleep, has become the living space for the young. spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed(沉迷于) in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. both parties need to work together. parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. they are responsible for setting boundaries for their childrens behaviour and sticking to those boundaries. they are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources time so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.40in the opinion of the writer, what problem do people ignore?a. the violence in the schoolb. the study pressure of students.c. the responsibilities of the studentsd. the right to achieve students potential.41the underlined part in paragraph 7 means _.a. parents care little about childrens life at homeb. parents and children live in their separate roomsc. children dont live with their parents in the same housed. children live a different life from that of parents at home42the authors attitude to the behaviour of parents may be _.a. dissatisfied b. indifferentc. understanding d. tolerant43from the last paragraph, we can infer that _.a. teachers have no responsibility for playing the role of parentsb. schools cant correct the wrongs that society does to teachersc. students are responsible for making themselves known in societyd. parents should spend time with children to make them ready to learndo

offer their customers a glass of tap water at no charge with their meal, but this week many restaurants are asking dinners to pay a dollar, or more, for a glass of water. cards on their tables explain that this small amount helps bring clean water to children around the world. its called the unicef tap project.“unicefs tap project is really all about bringing attention to the fact that over 900 million people around the globe do not have access to good, clean, healthy drinking water,” says cary stem, who heads the us fund for unicef. she adds that water-borne illness is the second-highest cause of preventable childhood death in the world.“each and every day approximately 4,100 children die just because they dont have that access - 4,100 every single day.”the public service campaign encourages people to help change that statistic with a simple, affordable action: paying a dollar to get a glass of tap water at a restaurant.“one dollar buys enough good, clean water for a child for 40 days,” stem says.“the tap project has expanded since it began five years ago with 300 restaurants in new york city. this year, stem says, about 3,000 restaurants across the country are participating in the campaign. we raised about $2.5 million over the last five years of this campaign,” says stem. “last year, we raised over $1 million for the first time. this year were hoping to top that.”stem credits the continued success of the campaign to an army of volunteers who support the tap project and raise money in their communities.the unicef tap project is promoting its efforts with a simple motto: when you take water, give water. currently, unicef works in more than 100 countries around the world to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools and communities.stem hopes that, by participating in the project, more americans will realize that what they often take for granted is a precious and scarce resource in many other parts of the world.52restaurants began to charge for tap water to _.a. increase their profitb. urge customers to save waterc. raise peoples awareness of the
