place to be born in the world in 2013 and the US is just 16th A new study produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit says American babies will have a dimmer 暗 淡 future than those born in Hong Kong Ireland and even Canada The EIU a sister company of The Economist attempted to measure how well countries will provide the best opportunities for a healthy safe and prosperous life in years to come People born in Switzerland will tend to be the happiest and have the best quality of life judged in terms of wealth health and trust in public institutions according to the analysis The Scandinavian countries of Norway Sweden and Denmark also all make the top five in a quality of life index 指数 where it is best to be born next year One of the most important factors is being rich but other factors come into play including crime trust in public institutions and the health of family life In total the index takes into account 11 factors These include fixed factors such as geography others that change slowly over time such as demography 人口学 social and cultural characteristics and the state of the world economy The index also looks at income per head in 2030 which is roughly when children born in 2013 will reach adulthood Small economies dominate the top 10 countries with Australia coming second and New Zealand and the Netherlands not too far behind Half of the top 10 countries are European but only one the Netherlands is from the euro zone The crisis ridden south of Europe including Greece Portugal and Spain lags behind despite the advantage of a favourable climate Interestingly the largest European economies Germany France and Britain do not do particularly well Nigeria has the unenviable 不值得 羡慕的 title of being the worst country for a baby to enter the world in 2013 56 According to the passage the happiest people live in 5 A Denmark B SwitzerlandC Germany D Nigeria 57 The factors of telling the best place to be born don t include A economy B geography C trust in public institutions D pollution 58 From the passage we know A the Economist Intelligence Unit is a company B the Economist attempted to measure the best place to live C the Scandinavian countries are hardly at the top of the list D half of the top 10 countries are from the eurozone 59 The purpose of the text is to show people A the best place to be born in 2013B a new study made by the EIU C the worst country to be born in 2013 D the factors of measuring the best place to be born B Santa Claus is someone who will remain in the hearts of children forever Santa C1aus also has some other names Saint Nicholas St Nick Kris Kringle Pelznickel Two of his names Santa Claus and Saint Nicholas both come from the Dutch who settled in New York long ago The Dutch honored this kindly saint with a yearly festival on December sixth The Dutch spoke the name Saint Nikolas very fast It sounded like sinterklaas And so when the English said this word it sounded like Santa Claus West of New York in Pennsylvania many German farmers had also heard of Saint Nikolas But they cal1ed him Pelznickel This word came from pelz meaning fur and nickel for Nicholas So to the Germans of Pennsylvania Pelznickel was a man dressed in fur who came once a year with gifts for good children Soon people began to feel that the 1ove and kindness Pelznickel brought should be part of a celebration honoring the Christkindl as the Germans ca1led the Christ child After a time this became Kris Kringle Later Kris Kringle became another name for Santa Claus himself Whatever he is called he is still the same short fat jolly old man with a long beard wearing a red suit with white fur The picture of Santa Claus as we see him came from Thomas Nast He was an American painter born in Bavaria Someone asked him to paint a picture of Santa Claus Nast remembered when he was a little boy in southern Germany Every Christmas a fat old man gave toys and cakes to the children So when Nast painted the picture his Santa Claus looked like the kindly old man of his childhood And through the years Nast s painting has remained as the most popular picture of Santa Claus Santa can be seen almost everywhere It is easy to find them by the long lines of children waiting to tell Santa what they want for Christmas 60 What is the main idea of the text A What Santa Claus usually do on Christmas B How Santa Claus got his names and image C Different countries have different Santa Clauses D Everyone especially children love Santa Claus 61 What did the term Kris Kringle originally refer to A A German festival B Good child C Love and kindness D A kind of fur 62 Why did Thomas Nast paint Santa Claus into a fat old man 6 A Because a fat old man looks more kindly than others B Because nobody was sure about what Santa

25th B Santa Claus was a misunderstanding of another term C It was the Dutch who created Santa Claus D Children line up to take photos with Santa Claus C Five million people visit Grand Canyon in the US every year For the purpose of helping protect Grand Canyon for your fellow visitors and future generations please follow the guidelines below Camping To protect the park camping is allowed only

weather at Grand Canyon can change very quickly With so much rock lightning 闪电 causes a particular danger during sudden summer storms These storms also frequently bring floods inside valleys a danger to hikers Watch the skies and check daily weather reports Wildlife Do not feed park wildlife There have been a few cases at Grand Canyon National Park where deer 鹿 were purposely shot because they ate plastic bags that left them sick and weak Hungry deer can be a danger and have kicked and bitten visitors at Grand Canyon Some other animals will also beg and bite For your own safety and the well

readings terrified many people and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory 呼吸系统 and heart diseases Later news of polluted underground water in some provinces scared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe So the need to emphasize environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere Smog especially is a common concern Like a popular online post said air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone despite your income or vocation People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices but they breathe the same air as everyone else At a meeting on Monday many Representatives have expressed their concerns about the air quality too One talked about his experience in Beijing After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel which took about an hour I washed my nose and found the inside of my nose was black We should ask ourselves this question Why do we want to develop It s for living a better life Dirty air is definitely not a better life he said China needs to develop its economy and invest 投资 in high tech Every Chinese wants a strong country But without blue sky clean water and safe food the achievements in the economy will become meaningless Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can migrate to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China President

in common sense It is anything but science fiction and always goes backwards in time There is minimum imagination involved no ever ending circles that mess up present and future no advanced technology no new social orders or new human forms from the twenty whatever century everything is a known historical fact when you travel through in China It is no
