Ive recently bought Quantum of Solace, in which Daniel Craig plays the part of Bond. Its a great movie. All the actors whove played James Bond have been great, but Daniel Craig, whos made lots of other films, plays the part better than any of them. Even though he doesnt talk very much，I think hes the most perfect actor for the role. He even does a few of the more dangerous things in the film himself, instead of getting someone else to do them. I did wonder sometimes in the film whether hed be clever enough to defeat the bad peoplebut Im not going to tell you the ending! The actress who stars with Craig gives a fantastic performance tooI loved all the stylish clothes she wore! The director probably had a hard job making this film as full of action as earlier ones. But the excitement starts right at the beginning here, with a car crash along a mountain road, and plenty of other thrilling scenes. Unfortunately I found the story difficult to follow sometimes， and it also seemed to be over very quicklyit lasted under two hours. I also felt there werent as many jokes as in the old Bond films. And where was all the ridiculous Bond equipmentthe underwater car or exploding watch that everyone laughed at? This is a more serious, darker Bond film, but I still really enjoyed it.第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AJust a couple of hours ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London.

Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilots voice：“The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers reactions that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments. A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers，stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said：“Hey, its not the end of the world，” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them. The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.No life is perfect; mine certainly isnt. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances. We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.Thats grace under pressure.

The new rules draw wide concern.Mundine is Prime Minister Tony Abbotts top advisor on issues concerning Aboriginals, native Australians. “Now, I know the government needs some necessary measures but I think punishing the parents is really the last choice. ” Mr. Mundine says the situation can be changed if the tribal leaders support education. “We need to work with parents and communities because we are making a huge cultural change here. ” But other officials say they believe the threat of stopping aid will force families to take education more seriously. The State of Southern Australia says it has special programs for Aboriginal children. The students work with their parents and teachers first to develop a personal learning plan and the public schools provide special workers to work individually with Aboriginal students. At the age of seven, Aboriginal students can join a program called Enter for Success designed to attract students to school. The students can choose which high school to attend and receive support in reaching the goals on their individual learning plans. The State of Western Australia also has special programs for Aboriginal and other ethnic(种族的) groups. The state operates a program called Focus Schools which centers on basic skills like reading, writing and counting. 67% of these public Focus Schools serve the students in 79 very rural areas. Most of them are primary schools. The Focus Schools program also includes 118 coaches working with students in 134 schools. 【解题导语】本文报道了西澳大利亚州政府和南澳大利亚州政府为提高土著儿童的入学率而采取的一系列措施。25Whats the aim of the new regulations?ATo develop advanced education.

Thats always fun, but this one will be a little more special. Its known as a “snow moon”. The name comes from the fact that the heaviest snows usually fall during February, according to The Old Farmers Almanac.But if thats not special enough, theres also an eclipse(月食) that night. Itll be a penumbral lunar eclipse, meaning its a partial eclipse that leaves sections of the moon darkened by the earths shadow. No, it wont be as spectacular as those “blood moon” eclipses. Itll be subtler. The level of darkness it reaches during the eclipse may or may not be apparent；it just depends on where you are when you view it.In North America, the eclipse begins at 5：34 pm. ET and ends at 9：53 pm. ET, according to the astronomy website EarthSky. The eclipse will be at its height around 7：44 pm.
