Her dedication to my successfulness was very encouraging because she 41 the time to personally help me time and again.Dr. Caldwell is behind my dedication to the learning process. Not only did she help me, but also Dr. Caldwell has 42 me to become a teacher and dedicate my life to helping children who struggle through school. My most memorable 43 as a teacher was when I tutored a fourth-grade boy, Darnell, in math. He was unable to add, minus, multiply, or divide. He was far 44 his classmates and needed personal 45 to help him work at the same level.46 we first began our sessions, Darnell was very quiet and 47 in learning.

But the Danish study, one of the largest of its kind to examine the combined effect of drinking and exercise, found there were additional protective effects gained from doing both.The researchers collected information on the drinking and exercise habits of nearly 12,000 people aged 20 years or older between 1981 and 1983. Over the next 20 years, some 1,200 of the participants died from heart disease and about 5,900 died from other causes.Non drinkers had a 30 per cent to 31 per cent higher risk of heart disease compared to moderate drinkers, no matter what the amount of physical activity they undertook. Moderate consumption was defined as between 1 to 14 drinks per week. But teetotalers （绝对禁酒者） who exercised at least moderately were able to reduce their risk of heart disease, an important finding for people who refuse to drink because of religious beliefs or other health issues such as pregnancy, the researchers said.People who had the lowest risk of dying from any cause were physically active, moderate drinkers while those at highest risk were the physically inactive, heave drinkers, the study found.56What kind of people have the lowest risk of dying from any heart disease and other causes?AThose who are physically active and heavy drinkers.BThose who exercise and drink moderately.CPeople who neither drink nor exercise.DPeople who are physically inactive and moderate drinkers.57How many drinks does a moderate drinker drink?AMore than three drinks per day.BOne or two drinks per month.COne to fourteen drinks per week.DFourteen drinks every day.58What is implied in the passage?AAll teetotalers can reduce their risk of heart disease.BDrinking is forbidden in some religions.CSome 1,200 participants died from heart disease over 20 years.DHeavy drinkers have the highest risk of heart disease.BSubmit your photos and videos to You Witness News to have them considered for use on Reuters. com, Yahoo!, and the Reuters professional picture service, used by thousands of news organizations worldwide.When you send images to pics reuters. com, please provide the following so that we can review and post them:Your full name Your email address or phone numberA brief description of the event you shot with the place and date that it occurred. The next images shown across the worlds newspapers, television channels, and news sites could be yours. Share your take with the world.What makes a good news photograph?As youre thinking about taking news photographs, think about what makes up a good picture.Most importantly, it will be of interest to a wide audience. It may describe an event in the news: a train crash, a clash in the streets, crazily happy fans the moment the big game is won.Uniqueness is eye-catching. A picture that no one else took has much more news value than one taken alongside a rank of other photographers. A good news picture will tell a story without words. It will have context by showing the surrounding scene, or show the emotion on the faces of the people in the picture.Timeliness is critical. Whatever the content, a news picture can lose its value in a short space of time. News events move quickly, and the shot of a mini tornado you took last week may have been destined for the front page when you took it, but of no interest to a newspaper or a website a week later.Control is important. Please remember, absolutely no photo is worth bothering others, putting yourself or others in danger, or getting in trouble with the law.Were looking forward to seeing your pictures.59The following are the features of a good news photograph except that .Ait is uniqueBit is timelyCit respects others privacy and the lawDit can arouse specialists interest60Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AYou Witness News is a column of a website.BThe photos or videos you take are only shared by Yahoo! and Reuters. com.CAttach a brief description of yourself when submitting your photos and videos.DAny photo or video you take will be accepted by You Witness News.61The purpose of the passage is .Ato teach you how to take photos.Bto tell people what a good news photo is Cto remind people not to disturb others while taking photosDto encourage you to share the take.62Which of the following is a good news photograph?AA bird escapes from the cage.BA policeman is robbed in the street.CTwo dogs fight in the park.DAn old couple quarrel at home.CLONDON（Reuters）Achieving three A grades at A-level will no longer be enough to ensure a place at a top university, academics warned on Wednesday.From September sixth-formers will begin studying A-level exams which will include a higher grade of A for those getting marks of 90 percent or above in their papers.Those applying for Oxford or Cambridge will need new top grades to win a place, the 1994 Group of 19 leading universities said in a report.It said it expected the two elite universities to take a large majority of those awarded three or two A grades.Outside Oxbridge, students will need at least two A grades and standard A grade to be confident of getting a place at their chosen university.The extra grade is being added to meet complaints from universities that too many pupils gain maximum grades in A-levels, making it hard to select the most able.But the 1994 Group, which does not include Oxford or Cambridge, said there were concerns among its members that pupils from fee-paying independent schools would dominate the A grades.It said this could set back efforts by its member universities, who include Durham, St. Andrews and Warwick, to widen the social range of their intake.The report estimated that just 3,500 out of 660,000 students would be awarded three A*s when they take the first exams in the new A-level courses in 2010.That compares with the 26,200 students who gained three A grades in A-levels in 2006.The government said there was no evidence to show that state school pupils would be disadvantaged by the introduction of the new grade. “It is up to institutions to decide how they balance their assessments of applications with their desire to be fair and to offer places to applicants with the greatest potential, regardless of background,” said a spokesman for the Department for Children, Schools & Families.63What would be the best title for this passage?AIndependent schools dominate the A* gradesBStraight As no longer enough for top universitiesCPick up applicants with the greatest potentialDTop universities need top students64The underlined word “elite” in Paragraph 4 means “ ”.AbestBexpensiveCworstDcheapest65We can infer from the passage that .Aonly students with at least 3 A* can be admitted to OxbridgeBfee-paying independent schools provide a better education than state schoolsCthe new assessment system of A* will be carried out in 2010Dstudents involvement in social activities is a must to be admitted to the 1994 Group66Why does the new assessment system have to be invented?AFew students have gained three A grades in A-level exams.BOxbridge want to distinguish themselves from other universities.CTop universities are pushing for the reform of the assessment.DThe present A-level exams fail to pick out the most talented students.DDear Sirs,Your shipment of twelve thousand “Samart” watches was received by our company this morning. However, we wish to make a number of complaints concerning the serious delay in delivery and your failure to carry out our instructions.It was stressed from the beginning that the delivery date had to be less than six weeks. While we appreciate that delays in production are occasionally unavoidable, we must point out that the major reason why the order was placed with your company was that we were assured by you that your existing stocks ensure immediate shipment. Late delivery of the goods has caused us to disappoint several of our most valued customers, and is sure to have a negative effect on future orders.The second complaint concerns the difference in colour. Only half the watches in the delivery received are of the colours we ordered. Our Hong Kong agent assures us that she stressed to you the importance of following our instructions, since we consider there to be only a limited market in this country for watches of other colours. Any watches that are not of the specified colours will , of course, be returned to you.We are also somewhat concerned about the rather poor quality of the goods received, since it is obvious that the watches that finally arrived have been produced from inferior materials and have been made to a lower standard than those in the sample. We have also found that a number of the watches do not appear to be functioning. We should like to point out that we feel this matter to be entirely your responsibility.As a result of the above p
