biggest entertainment prime-time program of 2012. in addition to being a hit in the ratings, “the voice” is also a hit with critics and emmy voters: the second season of the show , which aired from february to may 2012, has earned the 2012 critics choice award for best realty-series competition and an emmy nomination (提名) for outstanding reality-competition program. all the original coaches are back for the third season in a row: christina aguilera, maroon 5 lead singer adam levine, cee lo green and blake shelton. the shows other on-air talent returning for season 3 are host/producer carson daly and social media reporter christina milian, who has been with the show since season 2. the grand prize for the winner is also the same: a record deal with universal republic records.the third season of “the voice” features two big new changes: “steals”, in which the coaches can steal contestants who have been rejected from another coachs team, and “knockout rounds”. in the “battle rounds,” two contestants face off in a duet (二重唱) of a song chosen by their coach. when a contestant is rejected from a team after a battle round, another coach has the option to “steal” the contestant for his or her team. if more than one coach wants the same contestant, then the contestant gets to choose the coach. in the “knockout rounds,” two contestants face off by each doing a different song of the contestants choice, and coaches can no longer “steal” a contestant who is rejected. season 3 will also have a new group of four advisers, who are each paired with a coach: green day lead singer with aguilera; mary j. blige with levine; michael bubl with shelton; and matchbox twenty lead singer rob thomas with green. at an august 2012 press event held at “the voice” executive producer mark burnetts home in malibu, california, members of the media gathered for a press conference with burnett, aguilera, green, shelton, levine, daly and milian to discuss changes in the show and what the future holds for “the voice.” 【小题1】 what does the underlined word “aired” in paragraph 1 mean?a. open b. perform c. sing d. broadcast【小题2】on which section of a newspaper will you read this passage?a. finance b. current affairs c. tech d. entertainment【小题3】according to the passage, which of the following statements is not true?a. “the voice” has earned the recognition of critics and emmy voters. b. the prize of “the voice” remains the same as the previous year.c. “the voice” has become the biggest world entertainment of 2012. d. all the original coaches are back for the third season in a row.【答案】bin this day and age when we have a tendency to toss toys that are even slightly worn, it is tough to believe that there is a “hospital” where dolls can be repaired and brought back to their original glory. what is even more amazing is that such a place has existed for a century and is still going strong. welcome to sydneys “original doll hospital” that celebrated its l00th birthday, on february 22nd, 2013.in 1913, a general store owner in sydney began importing dolls. however, the rubber bands(橡皮圈) that held them together would often break. luckily for him, his brother harold chapman sr., was a good handyman and set aside a little “hospital” area in the store to repair the delicate toys. but when customers found out about this, they began bringing in their raggedy dolls, stuffed animals and even leather goods and umbrellasstarting what would become a family business for many generations.in l930, chapmans son also, named harold, relocated the doll hospital and expanded the business even further, by agreeing to repair anything that could be fixed, no matter how big or small. while business was robust, the real boom came in 1938 during world war two. faced with extreme restrictions, new dolls and toys became a rarity, and young girls and boys had no option, but to get their existing ones lovingly restored. while it does not have as many employees today, the hospital that is run by his son geoff chapman now sits in a spiffy location with a beautiful store-front that features everything a little girl could possibly wish for, from new to lovingly restored, to even extremely rare and valuable dolls. also in keeping with modern times and dolls, the doctors are now specialistssome focus on bringing back to life modern dolls, while others stick to antiques. and then there are also the soft toy experts and accessory repair experts. though it may not appear to be, the doctors say their jobs are very interesting given that no two dolls are the same or need the same repairs and that just like medical doctors they have no idea what obstacle they will have to face when they come to work each day. the one advantage? there are no emergency night calls to worry about!【小题1】we can learn from paragraph 2 that _. a. people showed little interest in having their toys repaired at first b. most of the toys that had broken were thrown away by harold c. stores in sydney didnt produce toys for kids at the beginning of 1900sd. the toy repairing business came into being rather accidently【小题2】 the underlined word “robust” in paragraph 3 shows the familys business _. a. was struggling hard b. was greatly stricken c. was developing very well d. was enjoying its best time 【小题3】what can we learn about people working in the toy repairing hospital? a. they work in that hospital mainly because they love toys. b. most of them focus on repairing modern dolls for little kids. c. they are not capable of repairing toys that are extremely rare. d. there are different experts who specialize in different types of toys.【小题4】which of the following words can describe the doctors work according to the last paragraph? a. simple. b. boring. c. worthless. d. challenging.【答案】【小题1】d【小题2】c【小题3】d【小题4】dcsingapore national eye centre“i could have lost my vision.snec restored (恢复)my sight.”a macular hole, a hole at the most crucial part of the retina brought bonny huang who is from hong kong to the singapore national eye centre for treatment. the retina is the light sensing nerve tissue at the back of the eye. in no time the potentially blinding condition was treated and his vision is now restored.“in april 2008, i noticed straight lines started to become distorted, and white patch appeared in the centre of my vision. i went to the singapore national eye centre immediately. the ophthalmologist, a medical doctor who specializes in eye care and surgery, found a central macular hole in my left eye.”the treatment of this condition involves delicate judgment dependent on the experience of the doctor. the success of the recovery, however, relies largely on the face-down posture by the patient.“the ophthalmologist explained to me the operational procedures, and taught me how to comply with the post-surgery face-down posture.the best part is that when i forgot some of the key points he told me, he showed no sign of resentment but instead comforted me not to worry before he went through the points again. i underwent an operation which lasted for only one hour, and maintained a face-down posture for three weeks. the result was very successful.”“i once consulted my ophthalmologist during his lunch time, and he attended to me without finishing his lunch. his understanding and concern shown towards his patients can be scarcely found in other medical centres. i am very pleased to have received timely treatment in singapore national eye centre where the doctors care about their patients.”l 50 senior and experienced eye
