Now, I use the Internet all the time. Internet has become so popular that 90 % of 12 to17-year-olds in the United States use the Internet, and about half of these kids use it every day. They visit chat rooms and send e-mails. They go to websites to get information for their homework.“Kids are now living in a virtual(虚拟的) world,” says Greenfield, an expert at the University of California, “As the Internet is becoming more and more important for our life, we should worry about one question: Is the Internet good or bad for kids? ”“Its to answer the question because the Internet involves(涉及) so many things,” says Justine, who is from Northwestern University. “They include online computer games, news, messages and even e-mails to your grandmother.” So, more and more people believe that the online world can be helpful in some ways but dangerous in others. “Although its not easy to tell whether its good or bad,” says Justine, “the Internet, at least, is very useful and can be used widely by everyone in the world.”56.

Two Experts from UniversitiesPassage 2 When might you need to give blood(血) for a personality test? The answer is that you need to do so when you ask for a job.Some people believe that your blood group hides no secrets. It shows the “real you”. And the owners of certain blood groups might be particularly good or bad at certain tasks(任务). This is the very reason of why you could be asked to offer your blood group before being given a job.The new idea was carried out first in Japan and now it has been brought over to other parts of the world. One important business company in Japan is quite special about this need: “For our office members, we must have 30 percent of group A and 15 percent of AB, 25 percent of O and 30 percent of B”.Do you happen to know your own blood group? It seems that if you belong to blood group O, you can get things done and sell the goods well. Blood group A are the thinkers, while blood group B are highly creative. And if you have problems, ask the ABs to solve them. So if you visited the Japanese company, you would find the O types out selling goods and A types keeping order in the office.61. According to the passage, _.A. four types of the blood were discovered by JapanB. people of good blood might do their work very wellC. know your own blood group and you could get a good jobD. more and more countries have believed the new idea about blood groups62. Creative persons, good salesmen, thinkers and problem solvers are the four kinds of persons needed by the Japanese company. The proportion mentioned in the passage is _ respectively.A. 30%, 15%, 25% and 30% B. 30%, 30%, 25% and 15% C. 30%, 25%, 30% and 15% D. 25%, 15%, 30% and 30%63.

This passage seems to lead you to believe _.A. your blood group could affect your work B. blood types can never change your lifeC. the idea about blood groups has little effect on workD. your blood group hides no secrets 65. This passage is mainly about _.A. the ways of giving blood for a personality test B. the effect of the blood group on personalityC. the secrets of blood groupsD. the new findings of Japanese companiesPassage 3 Kites may date back long time ago. They were made of bamboo and silk in China. Nobody knows exactly how and when a kite was first flown. But it is said that when a Chinese farmer tied a string to his hat to keep it from blowing away in a strong wind, the first kite was born. Children like playing with kites. Kites for work or play are made of wood, bamboo, paper, or silk. In 478 B.C.(公元前) a Chinese philosopher(哲学家)，Mo Zi, spent three years making a kite out of light wood and bamboo. The earliest record of kite flying was in about 200 B.C. when the Chinese general(将军) Han Hsin of Han Dynasty flew a kite over the walls of a city. He wanted to know how far his army would have to travel.In the 13th century, Marco Polo wrote about how the shipping businessmen flew huge kites in the wind before the ship set sail. They predicted the voyage(航海) in this way. If the kite went high and straight, it meant a quick and successful voyage, but if it did not fly well, it was a bad omen. In the late 1500s, the kite was introduced to Europe by the Indians. Kite flying was first mentioned in England in a book in 1589.66. The first kite was born when _. A. kites were used for sailing by Marco Polo B. Mo Zi used light wood and bamboo to make a kiteC. a Chinese farmer tied a string to his hat to keep it from blowing away D. a Chinese General called Han Hsin flew a kite to train his army67.

The voyage wouldnt be quite safe unless the kite flew well.Passage 4 The middle school graduates have to take a PE test in many places around China. The full marks are usually 30 points and it counts for much in the senior high school entrance exam(入学考试).In Nanjing，the test is held in April. Students have the test in their own schools. Each student is tested on three sports. They can choose long jump, basketball dribbling(运球) or volleyball. The pull-up is for boys and girls can choose the sit-up. Both boys and girls must skip(跳绳) in the test.Most students find the test easy and more than 90% of them can get full marks every year. Thats because they have been training for it during the whole three years. Students in Junior Three usually do lots of practice in PE classes. The training makes the test easier than it seems to be.Students in Nanjing dont need to run a lot for the test. But students in Beijing must do lots of running for the test. Running is one of the sports in the test. So in PE classes, they usually run a lot. Sometimes they must run 3,000 meters in one class.Most teachers and parents welcome the PE test. They say it helps students build up their health.71. Which three sports may a student be tested on in the PE test in Nanjing? A. Long jump, basketball dribbling, and volleyball. B.

He began to breathe when he was born, and he will not stop until he dies, still he does it without thinking about it.See how long you can hold your breath.In some places men dive(潜水) in the sea for pearls(珍珠). They pick up shells that hold the pearls, and the longer they stay under water, the more pearls they can find. For the reason they hold their breath as long as they possibly can. Yet even these, pearl divers cant go without breathing for a long time.Watch to see how many times a man draws his breath every minute. Some men breathe fifteen times a minute. An elephant breathes only eight times. Its said that a mouse breathes a hundred and twenty times each minute.No one needs to tell us that what we breathe every min
