He preferred reading the newspaper or watching football matches on television to talking to his family. Everything changed one morning. As soon as I came downstairs to breakfast, I could see that he wasnt his usual reserved (缄默的) self. “Cant wait! FIFA World Cup! Big match! Must see!” I quickly figured out what all the excitement was about: Dad is a big football fan. I had never been interested in football, but Dads excitement that morning made me more and more curious. I had to find out why this sport was making my normally reserved father act like a five-year-old on his first trip to Disneyland. Dad decided that we should all eat at a little German restaurant so that we could watch the World Cup while eating. Secretly, I think he was hoping to turn Mum and me into football fans. The match started a few minutes after we entered the restaurant. As I was eating my meal, a loud noise came from the television. Surprised, I looked up at the TV: “Why is that man jumping up and down?” Dad patiently explained: “Thats Papa Bouba Diop, my son. Its normal for them to jump up and down after theyve scored.” Dad explained almost everything to me. His monosyllabic (单音节的) answers were a thing of the past. I loved the new Dad! I watched the rest of the match, becoming more and more interested. When I told my father that I planned to watch more matches with him, he smiled and gave me a wink (眨眼). At long last we had something in common. Football has really helped Dad and me get closer and form a stronger relationship with each other. Who says football is only about 22 men running after a silly ball? 31. Which of the following words can best describe the authors father? A. A talkative football player. B. A parent busy at work. C. An encouraging father. D. A man of few words.32. What made the author curious about his father one morning? A. His unusual excitement. B. His unexpressed eagerness.C. His great interest in the newspaper. D. His high expectation of the winner.33. The authors growing interest in watching the match mainly came from_. A. his and his fathers common love of German foodB. watching a top level performance of the playersC. his fathers love of football and his explanationD. eating in a restaurant with the excited fans34. What can we learn from the passage? A. Sharing is the foundation of good relationship.B. Family members should be fans together.C. Interest is the mother of success.D. Personality decides everything.BThe League of High Schools is pleased to invite student freethinkers to our 2007 Student Leadership Meeting July 15-17 at our office building in Manhattan, New York.

That compares with 42.2 million a year earlier.Newspaper websites have become a significant addition to the print product, and are driving large audience growth, said John Kimball, the associations chief marketing officer. The number of page views at newspaper sites rose by about 52 percent in the first half, the association added.US Newspaper publishers have been fighting to hold on to advertisers as many of them lose readers to other media, including the Internet.Key to the latest report is the finding that websites are bringing in more younger readers, the association said.The Washington Posts website increased its audience reach among readers aged 25 to 34 by more than 60 percent, the report said. Audience reach combines the average weekly print audience and the net 30-day website audience.Overall, newspaper websites helped drive a 15 percent increase in the total newspaper audience for 25-to-34-year olds and a 10-percent increase for 18-to 24-year olds, the association said.It did not provide comparisons to the same period last year for total print newspaper readership. Readership numbers, which were provided by Scarborough Research, include circulation, shared copies and any other way that someone could end up reading a newspaper.Print readership fell, according to a comparison of figures from the two periods conducted by Reuters.The New York Times readership dropped 5.8 percent, while the largest U.S. paper, USA Today, fell 3 percent. The Wall Street Journal saw readership remain nearly the same.39. Which would be the best title for the passage？A. Online Newspaper Readership Grows B. Convenient Way to Read Newspapers C.

From paragraph 7, we can learn that audience reach includes the usual _. A.TV viewers and radio listenersB. TV viewers and print newspaper readersC. radio listeners and online newspaper readersD. online newspaper readers and print newspaper readersDA wood fire can be handy when youre camping. You can roast marshmallows or stay warm, for example. Forest fires that rage out of control, however, are a big problem. Wildfires cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage every year. And the amount of destruction has grown over the last 2 decades, especially in the western United States. To understand better why the northern Rocky Mountains region has been hit especially hard by wildfires, scientists from the University of Arizona in Tucson looked at weather, snow, and fire records from 1970 to 2003. Their study showed that, between 1987 and 2003, fires burned an area 6.5 times larger than the area burned between 1970 and 1986. The fire season also started earlier, and its average length increased by 78 days. Warmer spring and summer temperatures appear to be part of the explanation for this change. The average temperature in the studys more recent period was 0.87C higher than it was in the earlier period. And this trend is likely to continue. Experts predict that average summer temperatures may rise between 2C and 5C by the year 2050 in western North America. The timing of snowmelt appears to be another cause of the fire boom. When snow melts early in the season, forests become drier through the summer and catch fire and burn more easily. Western snow packs now typically melt a week to a month earlier than they did 50 years ago, according to recent studies. Some people have blamed the growing fire risk on policies that allow bush and branches to build up on forest floors. But clearing bush by itself wont help much if changes in climate are largely responsible for increasingly severe forest fires.43. The main purpose of studying the records from 1970 to 2003 was to_?A. find out solutions to forest fires.B. prevent wildfires from happening frequently.C. know more about the climate changes in the past decades.D. find out the causes of wildfires in the northern Rocky Mountains region.44. Scientists from the University of Arizona found out the following EXCET _.A. Western snow packs melt earlier than they did 50 years ago.B. Fires burned larger area between 1987 and 2003 than between 1970 and 1986.C. The fire season between 1987 and 2003 was longer than that between 1970 and 1986D. The average summer temperature will be 2C and 5C higher by 2050 than it is now.45. Which of the following statements will Scientists from the University of Arizona agree to?A. More wildfires lead to the trend of global warming.B. Hot summers have nothing to do with the increasing wildfires.C. The earlier snow melts, the more probably forest fires will happen.D. Clearing bush will help control the increasingly severe forest fires.46. What is the main idea the author aims to express in the passage?A. The damages caused by wildfires.B. The results of a study on wild fires.C. The causes of fires in the United States.D. The changes in climate in the western United States.ELife learning (sometimes called un-schooling or self-directed learning) is one of those concepts that are almost easier to explain by saying what it isnt, than what it is. And thats probably because our own schooled backgrounds have convinced us that learning happens only in a dedicated building on certain days, between certain hours, and managed by a specially trained professional.Within that schooling framework, no matter how hard teachers try and no matter how good their textbooks, many bright students get bored, many slower students struggle and give up or lose their self-respect, and most of them reach the end of the process unprepared to enter into society. They have memorized a certain body of knowledge long enough to rush back the information on tests, but they havent really learnt much, at least of the official curriculum.Life learners, on the other hand, know that learning is not difficult, that people learn things quite easily if theyre not compelled and forced, if they see a need to learn something, and if they are trusted and respected enough to learn it on their own timetable, at their own speed, in their own way. They know that learning cannot be produced in us and that we cannot produce it in others no matter what age and no matter whether were at school or at home. Life learning is independent of time, location or the presence of teacher. It does not require mom or dad to teach, or kids to work in workbooks at the kitchen table from 9 to noon from September to June. Life learning is learner-driven. It involves living and learning in and from the real world. It is about exploring, questioning, experimenting, making messes, taking risks without fear of making mistakes, being laughed at and trying again. Furthermore, life learning is about trusting kids to learn what they need to know and about helping them to learn and grow in their own ways. It is about providing positive experiences that enable children to understand the world and their culture and to interact with it. 47. It is implied from the passage that it is difficult to _.A. find a specially trained teacher B. learn without going to school C. tell the nature of life learning D. carry life learning through48. What does the writer say about the schooling framework?A. It often gives little care to the quality of teaching materials B. It often fails to provide enough knowledge about lif
