them worse For my grandchildren I d know better I d really like for them to know about hand me down clothes and home made ice cream and leftover meatloaf I really would My cherished boys I hope you learn humility by surviving failure and that you learn to be honest even when no one is looking I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother And it is all right to draw a line down the middle of the room but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he s scared 5 I hope you ll let him And when you want to see a Disney movie and your kid brother wants to tag along I hope you take him I hope you have to walk uphill with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books and when you learn to use computers you also learn how to add and subtract in your head May you skin your knee climbing a mountain burn your hand on the stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole 旗杆 I hope you get sick when someone blows smoke in your face I don t care if you try beer once but I hope you won t like it I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your grandpa or go fishing with your uncle I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor s window and that she hugs you and kisses you when you give her a plaster of pared mold of your hand These things I wish for you tough times and disappointment hard work and happiness 56 Who wrote the letter A A grandmother B A grandfather C A father D A mother 57 What does the author hope for the boys A they learn a lesson from a fight with others B they know how to calculate with computers C they have a close relationship with one another D they burn their hand on the stove and stick their tongue on a frozen flagpole 58 Why does the author write the letter A To show the boys it s not easy growing up B To teach the boys dos and don ts on the way growing up C To help the boys to avoid making mistakes on the way growing up D To encourage the boys to fully experience life on the way growing up B Saying thank you is probably the first thing most of us learn to do in a foreign language After all we re brought up to be polite and it is important to make a good impression upon other people especially across national divides So what exactly are you supposed to say when thank you is only the 20th most popular way to express gratitude According to a recent survey 19 other ways of expressing appreciation finished ahead of thank you in a poll of 3 000 people Pollsters 民测调查员 found almost half of those asked preferred the more informal cheers while others liked to use such expressions as ta great and nice one So just what is the appropriate form of words to express your thanks 6 Fortunately the clue is in the language itself Cheers despite its popularity is considered an informal way to say thank you and this is a definite clue as to when you can best use it For instance when going for a drink with friends a smile and a cheers by way of thanks is not only appropriate to the situation it is also culturally accurate Ta originated from the Danish word tak was the second most popular expression of thanks and is also commonly used in informal situations along with phrases such as nice one and brilliant Interestingly one word that didn t make it into the top 20 was thanks Thank you is shorter more informal cousin Thanks can be useful as it is able to bridge the divide between the formality of thank you and the downright relaxed cheers Certain words can double as an expression of thanks as well as delight Again the words themselves offer the clue as to when best to use them For example words like awesome brilliant and you star featured highly in the new poll and they can hint at both your pleasure at someone s action as well as serving to express your thanks If you are on the receiving end of a new thank you you can respond with a simple no problem or sure Of course in certain circumstances a simple wave nod or smile may be appropriate For instance if a car driver slows down to let you cross the road simply raising your hand in acknowledgement is enough to show that you appreciate the driver s consideration Sometimes formality is necessary and thank you is still the best choice in such situations But students should not worry about when exactly to use certain expressions Many people in Western countries are worried that good manners are in decline People are tired of seeing their acts of kindness and service pass without comment So don t think your thank you is clumsy or awkwardly formal The chances are if you said thank you you made someone s day You star 59 We can tell from the results of the poll that A people are unconcerned about politeness nowadays B thank you remains the best expression of gratitude C there is a variety of expressions of appreciation D there are more formal expressions than informal ones 60 According to the passage which is an appropriate response to awesome or brilliant A Thanks B Sure C Nice one D Cheers 61 In the last paragraph the author encourages people to A show their gratitude to others B behave themselves well C continue their acts of kindness 7 D stop worrying about bad manners 62 Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage A How to Appear More Polite B Ways to Show Gratitude C Never hesitate to Say Thank You D Good Manners in Decline C Recent research has claimed that an excess of positive ions in the air can have an ill effect on people s physical or psychological health What are positive ions Well the air is full of ions electrically charged particles and generally there is a rough balance between the positive and the negative charged But sometimes this balance becomes disturbed and a larger proportion of positive ions are found This happens naturally before thunderstorm earthquakes when winds are blowing in certain countries Or it can be caused by a build up of static electricity indoors from carpets or clothing or from TV sets duplicators or computer display screens When a large number of positive ions are present in the air many people experience unpleasant effects such as headaches fatigue 疲劳 excessiveexcessive angeranger and some particularly sensitive people feel sick or even suffer mental disturbance Animals are also affected particularly before earthquakes snakes have been observed to come out rats to flee from their burrows dogs howl and cats jump about unaccountably This has led the US Geographical Survey to fund a network of volunteers to watch animals in an effort to foreseeforesee such disasters before they hit vulnerable areas such as California Conversely when large numbers of negative ions are present then people have a feeling of well being Natural conditions that produce these large amounts are near the sea close to waterfalls or fountains or in any place where water is sprayed or forms a spray This probably accounts for the beneficial effect of a holiday by the sea or in the mountains with streams or waterfalls To increase the supply of negative ions indoors some scientists recommend the use of ionisers They claim that ionisers not only clean and refresh the air but also improve the health of people sensitive to excess positive ions Of course there are the detractors other scientists who dismiss such claims and are skeptical about negative positive ion research Therefore people can only make up their own minds by observing the effects on themselves or on others of a negative rich or poor environment After all it is debatable whether depending on seismic readings to anticipate earthquakes is more effective than watching the cat 63 What is an ion according to the passage A It s a charged particle B It s basically static electricity indoors C It s a balance between the positive and negative charged D It s an ill effect on people s physical and psychological health 8 64 What effect does exceeding positive ionization have on most of the people A They will throw up B They will be sick and tired of life C They may feel rather bad tempered D They may feel they are out of their mind 65 A high negative ion count is likely to be found A in a mountainous area B by a water spray in a garden C close to a slow flowing river D near a pound with a water pump 66 What is the author s attitude towards the use of ionisers A Neutral B Opposed C Supportive D Ambiguous D At the heart of the debate over illegal immigration lies one key question are immigrants good or bad for the economy The American public overwhelmingly thinks they re bad Yet the consensus among most economists is that immigration both legal and illegal provides a small net boost to the economy Immigrants provide cheap labor lower the prices of everything from farm produce to new homes and leave consumers with a little more money in their pockets So why is there such a discrepancy between the perception of immigrants impact on the economy and the reality There are a number of familiar theories Some argue that people are anxious and feel threatened by an inflow of new workers Others highlight the strain that undocumented immigrants place on public services like schools hospitals and jails Still others emphasize the role of race arguing that foreigners add to the nation s fears and insecurities There s some truth to all these explanations but they aren t quite sufficient To get a better understanding of what s going on consider the way immigration s impact is felt Though its overall effect may be positive its costs and benefits are distributed unevenly David Card an economist at UC Berkeley notes that the ones who profit most directly from immigrants low cost labor are businesses and employers meatpacking plants in Nebraska for instance or agricultural businesses in California Granted these producers savings probably translate into lower prices at the grocery store but how many consumers make that mental connection at the checkout counter As for the drawbacks of illegal immigration these too are concentrated Native low skilled workers suffer most from the competition of foreign labor According to a study by George Borjas a Harvard economist immigration reduced the wages of American high school dropouts by 9 between 1980 2000 Among high skilled better educated employees however opposition was strongest in states with both high numbers of immigrants and relatively generous social services What worried them most in other words was the fiscal 财政的 burden of immigration That conclusion was reinforced by another finding that their opposition appeared to soften when that fiscal burden decreased as occurred with welfare reform in the 1990s which curbed immigrants access to certain benefits 9 The irony is that for all the overexcited debate the net effect 净效应 of immigration is minimal Even for those most acutely affected say low skilled workers or California residents the impact isn t all that dramatic The unpleasant voices have tended to dominate our perceptions says Daniel Tichenor a political science professor at the University of Oregon But when all those factors are put together and the economists calculate th
