阅读理解aplaybill thu, 24 nov 2005 9:30 a.m. pst(by john nathan)harold pinter will not collect his nobel prize for literature on dec. 10 as planned because of health reasons.the playwright was due to travel to stockholm to receive the worlds most famous literary award, but his publisher stephen page will make the journey instead.the dramatist, who has been recovering from cancer of the esophagus (食道), will however still deliver his planned lecture to the swedish academy on dec. 7, which is due to be broadcast live to british television audiences.pinter is the first british playwright to win the nobel prize, worth $ 1.3 million. in recognition of both the award and his 75th birthday, a starry cast(演员阵容) of leading british actors is to perform a reading pinters celebration.the event will be presented by the gate theatre dublin at londons albery theatre for three nights only from dec. 1 to 3.directed by alan stanford, the cast includes sinead cusack, janie dee, michael gambon, jeremy irons, stephen rea, charles dance and penelope wilton.for the reading of celebration gambon and graham will take on the roles of the hard men and brothers lambert matt who are married to two sisters, julie and prue, played by wilton and cusack respectively.set in a london restaurant, the title of the play refers to lamberts and julies anniversary. though often hilarious(热闹的),the piece has moments of unease.celebration received its world premiere(首演) at the almeida in 2000 when it was directed by the author and presented along with the dramatists first play the room, written 43 years earlier.56. which of the following statements it not mentioned?a. harold pinter will not travel to stockholm to collect his nobel prize for literature on dec. 10.b. publisher stephen page will travel

dozen chinese immigrants pulled out their digital cameras and took pictures.wah ! exclaimed several.its cooked so well, said wilson goh. under the light, its very pretty.sponsored(赞助) by the chinese american etiquette association, the event addressed the typical american holidays traditions, which often baffle new immigrants.the great thing is that immigrants come and adopt these holidays and traditions and also change them, said noah pickus, a professor of ethics and public policy at duke university who studies american identity. that is part of how they become american, and it gives new energy to us.jane leu, director of upwardly global, a san francisco organization that helps immigrant professionals rebuild their careers, sees special relevance for immigrants in thanksgiving.most dont know that it is actually a celebration of getting through the first year in america and living to tell the tale, leu said. my sense is that you have to be in the u. s. for a long time before you feel that getting up at 7 a.m. on a day off to put in the turkey and bake up some pies has any meaning.many immigrants do adopt the holiday after they arrive in the united states, but in their own ways.cherie m. querol moreno, 52,of daly city, will serve lumpia(spring rolls) and coconut and pineapple fruit salad this thanksgiving to honor her native philippines. and shell serve succotash and corn to represent the contributions of native americans. moreno says she used to serve turkey, but theres always too much. she will instead serve chicken this year.the spirit of the holiday lives in each wave of settlers that arrives and enriches this country with their culture and traditions , said moreno, who immigrated in 1980. i didnt want to imitate the first thanksgiving; i wanted to make the occasion meaningful to us.60. the chinese american etiquette association is most probably an organization which _. a. helps new immigrants from china to get to know about american culture and

passage, we can infer that _. a. the two dozen chinese immigrants took pictures excitedly b. people usually get up late on a day off c. immigrants dont like to adopt american holidays and traditions. d. for many immigrants, thanksgiving is actually a celebration of getting through the first year in america62. the underlined word baffle can be best replaced by _. a. surprise b. satisfy c. frighten d. puzzle63. from the text, we know that moreno is among those immigrants who _. a. dont like to serve turkey at thanksgiving dinner b. are celebrating thanksgiving to get through the first year in america c. adopt american holidays and traditions and also change them d. want to honor only their native philippines by serving their favorite foodcyellowstone weatheryellowstone national park is at

leave it prepared for possible thundershowers and wind.a sunny warm day may become fiercely stormy with wind, rain, sleet and sometimes snow.without enough clothing, and easy day hike or boat trip can turn into a battle for survival.seasonal weather informationspringcold and snow continue into may, although temperatures gradually climb. early in spring, daytime temperatures average in the 40s to 50s;by late may and june, they may reach the 60s and 70s. nighttime lows fall below freezing.summerdaytime temperatures are usually in the 70s, occasionally reaching the 80s in the lower elevations (高度). nights are cool, temperatures may drop in the 40s and 30s-sometimes even the 20s. june can be cool and rainy; july and august tend to be somewhat drier, although afternoon thundershowers are common.fallweather can be pleasant, although temperatures average 10-20 degrees lower than summer readings. nighttime lows can fall into the teens and lower. snowstorms increase in frequency as the weeks go by or towards the end of the fall season.wintertemperatures often stay near zero throughout the day, occasionally reaching high in the 20s. suhzero nighttime lows are common. annual snowfall averages nearly 150 inches in most of the park. at higher places, 200- 400 inches of snow have been recorded.64. the author writes this passage most probably for those who plan to _ in yellowstone

underlined word readings refer to? a. literature works b. books c. announcements d. figuresdseeing with soundhave you ever watched a dog lift up its ears and bark at the air? that dog has just heard a sound that is too high-pitched (声调高的) for you to hear.the science of soundobjects that are vibrating (振动) ,moving back and forth quickly, make sounds. rhythmic sound vibrations produce sound waves. sound waves travel in every direction. the frequency of a sound is the number of waves that pass a given point each second. the more rapidly an object vibrates, the greater the frequency of sound it makes. frequency is measured in hertz. one hertz equals one sound wave per second.the frequency of sound determines the degree of highness or lowness of the sound. a highpitched sound has a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound. humans hear sounds that have frequencies from about 20 hertz to 20,000 hertz.seeing with sound sound with a frequency higher than 20,000 hertz is called ultrasound. in other words, ultrasound is too high-pitched for humans to hear. however, any animals can hear ultrasound. bats can hear higher sounds than any other animal. some can hear up to 210,000 hertz. bats send out lots of highpitched squeaks(吱吱叫声) and then listen to the echoes bouncing(弹跳) off things like insects. the shorter the time interval between the squeak and the echo, the closer they are to the insect. using sound to find or see things is called echolocation.dolphin soundsanother animal that uses ultrasound is the dolphin. dolphins can hear sounds up to about 150,000 hertz. dolphins use sound waves to find food underwater. they make clicking sounds that hit whatever is around them and then bounce back to the dolphins. dolphins can send as many as 2,000 clicks per second. dolphins ultrasound ability is so sensitive that they can detect small fish from 10 feet(3m) away.now what about that dog that heard a sound that you did not? the sound was his owner using an ultrasonic whistle to call him home. because dogs can hear up to 50,000 hertz, the dog at the park will head home.68. to be able to hear ultrasound, you must be able to hear _.a. less than 20 hertz b. exactly 20,000 hertzc. less than 20,000 hertz d. more than 20,000 hertz69. which animal can hear the highest ultrasound according to the passage?a. a bat. b. a dog. c. a dolphin. d. a human.70. which of the following statements is an example of echolocation?a. the bat caught the insect in midair and flew off to eat it.b. the dolphin make clicking sounds that bounced off the fish and back to it.c. the person heard an echo when he shouted into the valley.d. the dog heard his owners ultrasonic whistle because he used ultrasound.ethere is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. no school i have ever taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. there are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority(优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. the problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities(复杂性) of spelling.if spelling becomes the only focal(焦点的) point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to play safe. he will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.i was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience. this work is terrible! there are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible. it may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it wa
