Japan s first case of mad cow disease was reported in September. The Agriculture Ministry said last month that a second cow was infected. Japan is the only country in Asia where mad cow disease is known to have spread. The disease is officially known as Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis, or BSE. It causes holes in the brain. Cows act strangely before they die. So it is called mad cow disease.Scientists believe cows get the disease by eating food made from infected animals. Since September, Japan has banned the use of feed(饲料)made from animal remains. Recently, the Agriculture Ministry planned to destroy about five thousand cows that may have been given the feed.Sales of Japanese beef products have fallen in the past three months. Since October, Japanese officials have tested all cows that are killed for their meat. Some scientists question the testing. They say the disease often cannot be identified(识别)in young animals.Scientists say its horrible to eat infected meat that may cause a similar brain disease in humans. It cannot be cured（治愈）.56. Whats the best title of the passage?A. How Mad Cow Disease Spread B. Mad Cow Disease Prevented In JapanC. Feed From Animal Remains Banned(禁止) in JapanD. Horrible: Mad Cow Disease57. How many cases of mad cow disease were reported in Japan according to this passage?A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 458. What does the word infected(para. 1 line 3)most probably mean?A. recognized and correctly named B. caused to have a diseaseC. known to the public D. killed for meatBSan Francisco is going to do what many other cities have already done provide free bicycles to the public. The mayor of San Francisco supports the bicycle program. He wants to improve the terrible traffic problems in the city.At first, 40 to 60 bikes will be available only to city workers. People will give their old bikes to the city to use in the program. If this program is successful, one day more than 1000 bicycles will be available. Everyone, not just city workers, will be able to use these bicycles.The bikes are painted bright yellow so people know they can take them. When people take a yellow bike, they can ride to work or to shopping areas, and then leave the bike for the next rider.Some people worry that the free bikes will be stolen. However, theft (偷盗 ) hasnt been a problem in other free bike cities.While most people think the bike program is a good idea, only a few say they will use it. I will still drive my car, says Joanna Greene. San Francisco has a lot of hills. My office is at the top of Potrero Hill. I dont think Im in good shape. Phil Chung agrees, There is too much traffic. Riding a bicycle can be dangerous. There are not very many bike lanes(车道). He continues, Plus, its too cold in the winter. And what if you ride a bike, and then there isnt one to ride home?Program leaders know there will be problems. But they think its worth trying. Its not the solutionfor everyone, says Sylvia Pass. But if just one hundred people use it every day, thats one hundred cars that arent on the streets, one hundred parking spaces that arent used. I think it s a great beginning. 59.

He is giving a talk, but his voice sounds a bit strange. That is because this professor has a disease which prevents him from speaking, so when he speaks he has to use a computer and a voice box. When he answers questions, it takes about two minutes. Not only does he have to type out the answer on a computer, but he also gets the computer to translate it into sounds. Why do people come to his lectures since he is difficult to understand? The answer is that he is one of the top three physics experts in his particular field.The case of Professor Stephen Hawking is one example of the many disabled people who have achieved success in their chosen field of work. He was born in 1942, took his doctors degree in physics, and did research at Cambridge University in England. By the age of 21 he had already begun to notice that it was difficult to move around without falling over. Although he had a disease of the brain which was getting worse, he decided to continue with his research and his writing. He had to find ways that would make it possible for him to speak, read and write, even though he could later only move the fingers of one hand. In 1988 his book A Brief History of Time became a bestseller.History is full of other examples of successful people with disabilities. Some famous musicians have had little or no sight. Beethoven, who lived from 1770 1827,lost his hearing, yet continued to write great music. Many people who use wheelchairs do well in sports. Not only do disabled people read, write, draw pictures, paint and cook, but they also study, go to university, take exams and have jobs. In their personal lives, they also get married, have children, go out and meet people, play music and so on.63.

Unlike traditional parks, theme parks often want to teach visitors something. At the World Park, one of the largest theme parks in China, visitors can look at buildings, castles and statues from over 30 countries. At the China Ethnic Culture Park, people can learn a-bout the customs, costumes and cultures of Chinas 55 minorities. What they have in common is that they combine fun with the opportunity to learn something.Many people come to theme parks looking for excitement and entertainment. But theme parks also try to make sure that visitors leave knowing more about their theme. A good example of a theme park that educates and entertains is Ocean Park in Hongkong. Visitors will find all the rides and attractions that can be found in most parks, but they will also find many opportunities to learn about life in the ocean. The park has a centre that helps protect marine animals and their habitats. Ocean Park is built on both sides of a mountain on the south side of Hongkong Island. The park is divided into two parts. Having enjoyed the rides at the Headland, visitors can go to the Lowland, where they can explore the past at the Discovery of the Ancient World and examine foot prints at the Dinosaur exhibition. Visitors can learn about sharks, butterflies or pandas.Disneyland in California was one of the first theme parks to become popular around the world. New Disney parks have opened in other places. The theme of the Disney parks is the world of Walt Disney and his characters; Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and others. Another big theme park in the U. S is Universal Studios in Florida. There, all the rides and activities are based on Universal Pictures movies. Entering one of the attractions at Universal Studios is like stepping into the world of your favourite movies.New theme parks are being built all over the world. More advanced and new technology allows us to experience almost anything without being in danger or risking injury.67. In which theme park are all the rides and activities based on popular movies?A.

They were called Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. The main reason they were sent was to explore the planets of the outer solar（太阳的） system. It took the Voyagers two years to get to Jupiter(木星). It took them ten more years to get to Neptune (). In between they sent back photos of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune(海王星). These pictures are beautiful. They show the gases on Jupiter. Scientists were surprised to find active volcanoes on a moon of Jupiter called Io.Each Voyager weighs about one ton. Both have enough fuel and electrical power to continue sending signals(信号) for about 20 more years. It takes almost 12 hours to send a radio message to Voyager l, and nearly another 12 hours to hear back.The Voyagers still have one last task. It is to find out where our solar system ends. Scientists call this point the helipause.
