Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. Its a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in(懒觉) until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003. In this movie, she has a starring role.For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all. If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herself tells the reporters.54. We can infer (推断) from the text that most millionaires are _. A. older than 20 B. around 20 C. in their 30s D. in their 40s55. The underlined word “you” in the first paragraph refers to _. A. a person in general B. a special person C. Britney Spears D. a person interested in money56. Which of the following is not true according to the text? A. Though young, Britney can support her family now. B. While touring, Britney sleeps about 12 hours a day. C. The teenage comedy movie was based on Britneys own story. D. Britney will be even richer with her movies successful.57. According to Britney Spears, she works _. A. to be a great actress B. for the enjoyment C. for money D. to be more famousCAs teenagers, you have many dreams. These can be very big such as winning the Nobel Prize. Or they can be small, you may just want to become one of the best students in your class.Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Have you ever tried to make your dream real? Follow Your Heart by an Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is lifes biggest challenge.You may think you are not very good at some school subjects, or it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from realizing your dream, the book says.In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Dont let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step, and your dream will come true because a big dream, in fact, comes from many small dreams.You must also never give up your dream.There will be difficulties on the way to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.58. What is Follow Your Heart?A. The first thing you must do to make your dream realB. The most important dream to have for teenagersC. The name of the book by Andrew MatthewsD. The dream the teenagers must give up. 59.

Teenagers Have Many DreamsDWhat do you do if youre trapped on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.Body signals(信号)Pilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means yes. When you point downwards and swing(摆动) your arm from side to side, it means no. If you want the pilot to know that its safe to land, push your hands out in front of you and bend（弯曲）your knees. If you want to say that its not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.Smoke signalsThe smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so its a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isnt hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Never light a fire unless youre sure that it cant spread. If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.Ground-to-air signalsIts a good idea to build some signals, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the symbols(标记). If you cant find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:F I need food and water.II I need medicine.I I am badly hurt.X I am unable to move from here.Pilots repliesIf the pilot lowers the planes wings from side to side, this means message received and understood. (At night, the pilot flashes the planes green lights.) If the pilots flies the plane in a clockwise(顺时针方向的) circle, this means message received but not understood.(At night, the pilot flashes the planes red lights.)However, there is no signal which means message not received. Why not?62. How many kinds of signals are mentioned in the passage? A. Two. B. Four. C. Three. D. Five. 63. Which picture means its not safe land?64. What can we learn from the passage?A. Swinging your arm from side to side means yes.B. If the ground is dark, light smoke cant be seen.C. If you need some medicine, make a symbol II.D. The pilots make replies with a blue light at night.65. What is the passage mainly about?A. The explanation of building signals on an island.B. The importance of making signals on an island.C. Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.D. Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island五、词汇运用（10分）根据句子意思，用括号内所给中文或英语的适当形式填空。（每空一词）66. Thank you for your _. They are very important. (建议)67.
