But we are not exactly the same from the top to the bottom. The boys wear different sport shoes and girls have different decorations ( 装饰品 )in their hair. These are the areas where you can express yourself said Qing.Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school, especially shoes, according to Qing.Nike and Adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must for many of my friends ,are becoming out-of-date,” added. He explained, Since Liu Xiang ran so fast in Athens, running shoes are becoming popular in this autumn.Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with random English words printed on them, said Qing. The accuracy ( 准确性 )of the written message isnt important. Often, the words are misspelt . Sometimes they do not even make sense “ Qing said with a smile.Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colours of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion. Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls. Other fashionable items are the colourful drink contains which are now popular among girls this semester.As in China, the new semester in the US also brings new fashion trends: shirts printed with Chinese words, necklaces with Hebrew ( 希伯莱 )or Hindi ( 印度的 )characters, and Brazilian jewelry, are all common in schools in Florida, according to Carmen Domingues, a high school student.56. What does a bunch of clones”( Paragraph 2)mean?A. All of the clothes are the same. B. All of the exercises are the same. C. All of the clothes are different. D. All of the exercises are different. 57. How do the students express themselves in school?A. The girls wear different sport shoes. B. All the students wear school uniforms.C. The girls have different decorations in their hair.D. The boys drink water from colourful drinks containers.58.Why are Nike and Adidas basketball shoes becoming out-of-date?A. Because the shoes are not eye-catching.B. Because running shoes become more popular.C. Because the shoes have been popular for a long time.D. Because they have changed their opinions for Liu Xiang. 59. Which of the following is NOT the new fashion trends in the US?A. Necklace with Hebrew or Hindi characters.B. Baseball caps and American-style T-shirts.C. Shirts printed with Chinese words.D. Brazilian jewelry. BRumour( 谣言 )is the most primitive way of spreading stories- by passing them on from mouth to mouth. but civilized countries in normal times have better sources of news than rumour. They have radio, television, and newspapers. In times of confusion ( 混乱 ), however ,rumour appears and becomes widespread. At such times the different kinds of news are in competition: the press, television, and radio against the grapevine. Especially do rumours spread when war requires control on many important matters. The normal news sources no longer give out enough information. Since the people can not learn through legal channels all that they are anxious to learn, they pick up news wherever they can and when this happens, rumour grows.Rumours are often repeated even by those who do not believe the tales. There is an interest about them. The reason is that the cleverly designed rumour gives expression to something deep in the hearts of the victims - the fears, doubts, forbidden hopes, or daydreams which they hesitate to voice directly. Pessimistic ( 悲观的 ) rumours about defeat and disasters show that the people who repeat them are worried and anxious .Optimistic rumours about record production or peace soon coming point to self- satisfaction or confidence-and often to over- confidence.60. The author suggests that, in times of confusion, man often _.A. stops regular news servicesB .turns to primitive ways for supportC. distrusts his fellow manD. loses complete control of himself61. The underlined word grapevine in Paragraph 1 probably means _”.A. rumour B. newspaper C. information D. time62. The author states that during wartime the regular sources of news provide only _ .A .false information B. optimistic reports C. limited information D. pessimistic reports63. Which of the following statements is mentioned as a reason for people to repeat a rumour?A. They are too willing to believe. B. They take an interest in rumour. C. They have a strong desire to make a fool of other people. D. They find some rumours reflect their own unexpressed beliefs. CJenny Bowen, an American living in Beijing, has been selected as the only American to carry the 2008 Beijing Olympic torch on Chinese soilShe and seven other non-Chinese winners were chosen from a pool of 262 applicants (申请者) from 47 countries in a contest organized by Chinese computer maker Lenovo Group and the official English-language newspaper, China DailyWhen Bowen runs with the Olympic torch, she will not only be representing the United States, but also be representing thousands of Chinese orphans (孤儿)Bowen, a mother of two adopted Chinese daughters, is the executive director of Half the Sky Foundation, an organization which was founded in 1998 and aims to enrich the lives and improve the prospects for orphaned children in ChinaIn nearly 10 years, Bowen and Half the Sky have touched the lives of over 13,000 childrenHalf the Sky is now present in 36 welfare (福利) institutions in 28 Chinese citiesAbout 4,000 children are active in the program, which provides trained staff, educational tools, medical support and nurturing love for orphansBowen hopes that running with the Olympic torch would help draw attention to the children in ChinaShe will be among 19,400 runners who will carry the flame along an 85,000-mile, 130-day route across five continentsBeijing organizers say it will be the longest torch relay in Olympic historyLike Bowen, the seven other non-Chinese winners, including a German engineer and a Venezuelan graphic designer, live in ChinaOther countries represented will be the Philippines, Colombia, India, Japan and RussiaAccording to Olympic organizers, candidates (候选人) were selected based on an online vote, committee selection, their “love of Chinese culture and history” and devotion to “communicating information of a real China to their native countries”Each runner will carry the torch for 200 meters on Chinese soil64According to the text, Jenny Bowen _ Ais interested in Chinese sports Bfounded Half the Sky, an organization which aims to help Chinese orphans Chas adopted 13,000 children during 10 years Dloves Chinese culture and history65Bowen hopes that being a torch runner would help _ Acollect educational tools, medical support, etc, for orphans Bmake Half the Sky Foundation well known Ccommunicate information of America Ddraw attention to orphans in China66Which of the following about the 2008 torch relay is WRONG?

Because thanks to these schools our early mechanics, especially in the New England and Middle Atlantic states, were generally literate and at home in arithmetic and in some aspects of geometry and trigonometryAcute foreign observers related American adaptiveness and inventiveness to this educational-advantageAs a member of a British commission visiting here in 1853 reported, “With a mind prepared by thorough school discipline, the American boy develops rapidly into the skilled workman”A further stimulus to invention came from the “premium” system, which preceded our patent system and for years ran parallel with itThis approach, originated abroad, offered inventors medals, cash prizes and other incentivesIn the United States, multitudes of premiums for new devices were awarded at country fairs and at the industrial fairs in major citiesAmericans flocked to these fairs to admire the new machines and thus to renew their faith in the beneficence of technological advanceGiven this optimistic approach to technological innovation, the American worker took readily to that special kind of nonverbal thinking required in mechanical technologyAs Eugene Ferguson has pointed out, “A technologist thinks about objects that cannot be reduced to unambiguous verbal descriptions: they are dealt with in his mind by a visual, nonverbal processThe designer and the inventorare able to assemble and manipulate in their minds devices that as yet do not exist”This nonverbal “spatial” thinking can be just as creative as painting and writingRobert Fulton once wrote, “The mechanic should sit down among levers, screws, wedges, wheels, etc, like a poet among the letters of the alphabet, considering them as an exhibition of his thoughts, in which a new arrangement transmits a new idea”When all these shaping forces - schools, open attitudes, the premium system, a genius for spatial thinking - interacted with one another on the rich USmainland, they produced that American characteristic, emulationToday that word implies mere imitationBut in earlier times it meant a friendly but competitive striving for fame and excellence68According to the author, the great outburst of major inventions in early America was in a large part due to _Aelementary schoolsBenthusiastic workersCthe attractive premium systemDa special way of thinking69It is implied that adaptiveness and inventiveness of the early American mechanics _Abenefited a lot from their mathematical knowledgeBshed light on disciplined school managementCwas brought about by privileged home trainingDowed a lot to the technological development70A technologist can be compared to an artist because _Athey are both winners of awardsBthey are both experts in spatial thinkingCthey both abandon verbal descriptionDthey both use various instruments71The best title for this passage
