People will say that Jordan and Simpson are heroes because they are good 41 to young people. They are two incredibly gifted men who play their 42 sports with tremendous heart and determination. They have shown 43 nd personality at all times on and off the court and theyve 44 millions of people. Mentioned as well will be that Jordan is basketballs greatest player, and Simpson 45 among the greatest running backs in football history. However, the question remains, are they really heroes?Perhaps Jordan is a hero because he has an incredible gambling 46 losing up to two million dollars per day. And he has repeatedly stated that 47 he is the National Basketball Associations highest paid player in 1997 he will retire permanently.For years O. J. Simpson was known as the “Greatest American Hero”. People of all ages 48 with him and idolized him. He was the greatest running back to ever play for the Buffalo Bills and became an instant movie star. 49 , it took two brutal murders, and a few 911 tapes to show the country 50 our hero really was. He is a wife beater and an accused murderer. 51 being acquitted（宣告无罪）for double murder, he has done nothing but attempt to 52 selling infomercials（商业广告片）.Jordan and Simpson are not 53 r role models. They are past and present athletes who have used their 54 abilities to become national superstars. 55 people see Jordan slam the door and they wanted to be like him. This is 56 parents would tell their children that these athletes can be 57 for their exceptional talent in sports, but 48 they live their lives 59 the court is what separates them from 60 heroes.41.

When our eyes is made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution , or when we are cutting onions, or when we are exhausted and “red-eyes” from over work and late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed（流）tears.Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland（腺）in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually constitute the most conclusive evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary process that began in the sea.And it is clear that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge（合并）into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.61. According to the passage, human beings may have originated in _.A. the seaB. the saltC. chemicalsD. animals62. Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?A. Biological.B. Emotional.C. Political.D. Chemical.63. According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?A. The feeling of loneliness.B. The state of feeling good.C. The ability to shed tears.D. The feeling of fear.64. The underlined word “eliminate” probably means _.A. addB. produceC. replaceD. remove65. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Tears are a sign of strong emotion.B. Tears are always making us feel more comfortable.C. Tears are uniquely human.D. Tears have certain biological function.BThe railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at a high speed. Railroad officials wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore（矿石）.Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace（熔炉）would burn out the impurities（杂质）that made the iron brittle（易脆）. As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt（喷发）in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel, now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits（矿床）of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to deposits on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed Gary, Indiana and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steel manufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all.66. The best title for the passage is _.A. The railroad Industry B. Famous InventorsC. Changing Iron into Steel D. Steel Manufacturing Centers67. According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible?A. It directed air at melted iron in furnace, removing all impurities.B. It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again.C. It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute（替代物）for steel.D. It could be quickly found deposits of iron ore under the ground.68. It can be inferred from the passage that the mass production of steel caused _.A. a decline in the railroad industry B. a revolution in the industrial worldC. an increase in the price of steel D. a feeling of discontent among steel workersCFor new countries joining the European Union, and older ones getting used to their burgundy passports, becoming “Europeans” is a bit like marrying into a large, eccentric（古怪的）family. Europeans have a lot in common but it is their differences, not their similarities, which attract the attention of sociologists（社会学家）and market researchers, that are more interesting.35% of Germans live alone; but only 9% of Spaniards. Perhaps this explains why Spaniards lead Europe in the habit of going out for a drink.The British attend more adult evening classes than anyone else in Europe, and the Belgians least. So it cant just be the dark evenings. There are no figures on how many Britons go for a drink afterwards. If there were, they might be up at the top with Spain!The British think black cats are lucky. Every other European country regards them unlucky.The Dutch and Germans are the greatest caravanners（活动房居住者）, but the Germans like bigger beds in their caravans.The French are the most athletic Europeans. Next come the Dutch. But the Belgians, just over the border, play fewest sports.The Germans spend twice as much on heating as the Spaniards. Well, of course they do; its colder.Dutch husbands do the household shopping a lot more often than Italians or Spaniards.The French are the champion public transport commuters（使用月票者）of Europe. If you hate commuting, go and live in the Netherlands, where journeys to work are shorter than anywhere else.The amount of direct eye-contact between strangers is three times greater among Spaniards than it is among the British or Swedish. Sharing a lift is torture（折磨）for both the British and the Swedish.No European countries really agree with any other about how to make good coffee. All of them are different.There are exceptions to all these rules. Deal with them in the spirit of my 8-year-old daughter. “If you dont understand each others language, you just laugh a lot, and eat, and point at things.”69. If you work or live in Belgium, you _.A. will have to change your living places oftenB. will seldom see people playing sportsC. will not get used to its cold weatherD. will be invited to go for a drink frequently70. What does “Sharing a lift is torture for both the British and the Swedish” mean?A. The British and the Swedish care about their safety most.B. The British and the Swedish like to appear gentle and smart.C. The British and the Swedish hate to look at each other face to face.D. The British and the Swedish enjoy a richer life than others.71. In the last paragraph, the author wants to express his idea that _.A. his daughter knows well how to understand foreigners in unfamiliar situationsB. Europeans actually share the same culture even if they have different languagesC. being a European, you will have no living trouble at all in the European UnionD. there are differences between European countries, but dont take it too seriousDThe latest United Nations report on the AIDS spread paints a sad picture. It concludes that the regions of the world most affected by AIDS will experience rapid increases in deaths among young adults. This will have serious social and economic results.The spread of AIDS and the virus that causes it, HIV, is particularly destructive in Africa. It is estimated that in sub-Saharan Africa, over twenty-four million adults and children are now living with HIV. In sixteen sub-Saharan countries, according to the UN, at least ten percent of the people between the age of fifteen and forty-nine are HIV positive（阳性）. In South Africa and Zimbabwe, half the people between those ages may die of AIDS. In Botswana, about one in three adults is infected, and some two-thirds of the countrys fifteen-year-old boys may die before they grow up.As a result, agriculture, business, education, and health care are already suffering serious loses. The United States is spending millions of dollars to do it. Funding is being used for prevention campaigns and to make AIDS treatment more affordable. Money is also being used to reduce mother-to-child transmission rates; support home and community based care, and provide care for children orphaned by AIDS. The Peace Corps will soon make an all out effort to bring AIDS education to the countries most at risk. It is important that the governments and citizens of those nations most affected by AIDS do their part to fight against it. Some, like Senegal and Uganda, have already begun programs for disease prevention. These countries are experiencing falling or stable HIV rates and less suffering. But for other nations, much remains to be done.72. The report shows that _ _.A. more places are affected by AIDS B. more deaths are caused by AIDSC. more young adults are dying of AIDS D. the spread of AIDS can never be controlled73. Which of the following statements is true?A. The spread of AIDS is getting worse and more dangerous in Africa.B. In sub-Saharan Africa, 90% of the population are not affected by AIDS.C. In South Africa and Zimbabwe, 50% of the population may die of AIDS.D. In Botswana, one-third of the grown-ups are infected by AIDS74. The money used to fight against AIDS doesnt include that for _.A. prevention and treatment B. reduction of mother-to-child transmissionC. home and community based careD. orphans infected by AIDS75. The phrase at risk in the passage probably means _.A. likely to be affected by AIDSB. dangerousC. poor in medical care D. poor in education76. _ have（has）done better in prevention and treatment for AIDS.A. Sixteen sub-Saharan countries B. South Africa and ZimbabweC. Botswana D. Senegal and UgandaELearning English can sometimes seem like a difficult thing to do-the grammar can be very confusing and spoken English seems to be changing all the time. But, it is not as hard as it seems and the most important thing for any learner to achieve is confidence with the language. If students are nervous about using English or worried about making mistakes, they wont feel like practicing, and without practice they cannot make progress. General English courses aim to give students that confidence. Whether students are complete beginners or advanced learners, schools want them to be confident about using English by the time they finish their course. To do this, schools have developed General English courses which combine a range of different teaching methods.In class, teachers encourage students to work together so that they can practice new words and grammar. They always try and make this classwork interesting and fun. Many schools are equipped with language laboratories and libraries where students can work on their own with audio tapes, video and computers. And outside the classroom, the learning continues, where students are meeting together socially, visiting local attractions, or at home with a host family.Most schools offer General English courses which are either part timeusually 15 hours per week or full time, which can be as much as 40 hours. This type of course is available all year round. Students can normally start a General English courses every Monday, and can study for as long as they like. Other types of General English courses may last a minimum umber of days or weeks. Some of the most popular General English courses are available during the summer holiday period. These are usually part time, and schools organize social activities for students in their free time. Some schools offer special activities like sports.General English courses also give students the chance to discover new parts of Britain. With so many schools offering this type of course, students can go almost anywhere, and while they are studying, they wil
