two mile path on Monday night to the site of a coal mine explosion that trapped 13 miners who had not been heard from since the early morning accident Meanwhile at a nearby church more than 250 family members and friends gathered waiting for updates 最新报道 on the rescuers progress The miners were trapped at about 6 30 and many families weren t informed of the accident until about 10 a m more than three hours after it happened It s very upsetting but you ve got to be patient I guess said John Helms whose brother Terry was trapped in the mine The trapped miners were about 260 feet underground and about 10 000 feet from the Sago Mine s entrance said Roger Nicholson general counsel from International Coal Group At a late night news conference Nicholson said one team had advanced about 4 800 feet in the four hours since entering the mine just before 6 p m Another team entered the mine about 30 minutes later He said the crew was very experienced with some members having worked underground for 30 to 35 years The miners were equipped with about one hour of breathable oxygen each The company has not released the names of the miners The teams test the air about every 500 feet and have to disconnect remove the power to the phones they use to communicate with the surface before doing that We don t want to be energizing anything if it s in an atmosphere with burnable gases Kips said The cause of the explosion was not immediately known High levels of carbon monoxide were discovered shortly after 用心 爱心 专心 7 the explosion which delayed rescue efforts but those levels have since subsided

For many of us printed books are satisfying in ways beyond the words they contain Billions of printed books have been published read and saved in the 600 years since movable type was invented so why mess with a good things Sony Electronics is doing just that betting that readers will be won over by the convenience of readability of its new electronic book devices Sony s reader the PRS 505 can hold 160 books in its fixed memory enough to line the shelves on a good sized wall in the average American home The 299 device is about the size of a paperback book but a half inch thick and weighs less than a pound The Sony book reader is revolutionary not only in its storage capacity The font 字体 is highly readable and adjustable by size Unlike laptop computers you can put the Sony in your purse read it in direct sunlight and even bookmark the pages And you can connect it to your PC to download books Surprisingly though the reader has liberated the book from paper electronic books aren t always a bargain For example David Baldacci s Stone Cold download retails 零售 for 15 19 at the Sony site while Amazon 卓越网 will deliver a hard copy to your mailbox for 16 19 The Sony reader also lets you store and play or display music So what s not to like about the Sony Well for many bibliophiles a lot Book lovers like to have hold and keep their volumes which don t need charging You can write notes in the margins and enjoy the ambience they provide on your book 用心 爱心 专心 8 shelves The need for electronic reading devices is likely to grow as more people worried about the billions of tons of paper used for printed material Many believe the time will come when devices like the Sony reader are as common as printed newspapers and magazines today 63 According to the passage the Sony book reader A is as light as a laptop computer B can hold more than 200 books C is convenient to carry aroundD cannot be connected to a PC 64 What is the author s point when he mentions Stone Cold A Amazon

devices A They ll replace printed newspapers and magazines B They ll still be more expensive than printed newspapers C They ll become a must in people s daily life D They ll become more popular as time goes on D As kids my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods The woods was our part time address destination purpose and excuse If I went to a friends house and found him not at home his mother might say Oh he s out in the woods with a tone 语气 of airy acceptance It is similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone I m looking for is on the golf course or at the gym or even away from his desk For us ten year olds being out in the woods was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while We sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring 探索 Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today History seemed to be mostly about explorers Our explorations though seemed to have less system than the historic kind something usually came up along the way Say we stayed in the woods throwing rocks shooting frogs picking blackberries digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Indian burial mound Often we got lost and had to climb a tree to find out where we were If you read a story in which someone does that successfully be skeptical the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees There were four or five trees that we visited regularly tall beeches easy to climb and comfortable to sit 用心 爱心 专心 9 in It was in a tree too that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end By then some of us had reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence 青春期 In March the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter two friends and I set out to go exploring We climbed a tree and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to

serious D optimistic 70 How does the author feel about his childhood A Happy but short B Lonely but memorable C Boring and meaningless D Long and unforgettable 第二节 补全短文 注意 E 涂 AB F 涂 AC G 涂 AD 10 分
