E took home the gold hit award at the 2006Hong Kong TVB8 Top Chart Awards (金曲榜) last week, with DontWanna Grow Up from their eighth album Once Upon A Time.Its the first time S.H.E has won the award. The three members, Selina, Hebe and Ella were all very excited about it. They not only performed the song at the award ceremony, but also offered exaggerated (夸张的) hugs (拥抱) when giving awards to other artists. Dont Wanna Grow Up is a song with light tunes and easy lyrics. Its music writer Zuo Anan used the tunes from Mozarts Symphony No 40 as the refrain (副歌). That gives the song a very classical feeling. The song has a similar theme to that of Peter Pan, the boy who doesnt grow up. I dont wanna grow up. When I grow up there wont be fairytales in the world. I dont wanna grow up. Id rather be ignorant and foolish. In the song, S.H.E expresses young peoples common fear of the adult world and the desire to stay young forever. The song has been quite popular among high school students since it came out. Xiao Xue, a Senior 1 student from Shanghai, said that she often hums (哼歌) the refrain part herself. I like the lyrics too, she said, I often wish that I could go back to my childhood, when I had enough time to play and didnt have to worry about all the exams. S.H.E said that the song also expresses their true feelings. Their rocking success in the past six years has led to the three young girls heavy workloads (工作量) and forced them to grow up very quickly. When we first started singing, we were quite carefree and we had our own musical dreams, said S.H.E. Dont Wanna Grow Up reminds us of those happy times and of our original dreams.56. What does the “top hit single” in the passage refer to?A. Top Chart Awards. B. Dont Wanna Grow UpC. Once Upon A Time. D. S.H.E57. Which of the following sentences is NOT TRUE?A. Taiwan girl band S.H.E. was not a little happy at the award.B. The example of a Senior student is used to support the popularity of the song.C. The reason why S.H.E won the award is that the song expresses young peoples common fear of the adult world and the wish to stay young forever.D. In Once Upon A Time S.H.E used the tunes from Mozarts Symphony as the refrain.B.Several interesting American museums tell about health subjects. One is the Doctor Samuel D. Harris National Museum of Dentistry. It is at the University of Maryland in Baltimore. That is where the first college in the world to train dentists began. The museum tells about the history of the medical treatment of teeth. Visitors can see some frightening devices that once were used to remove infected (受感染的) teeth. They also can see sets of teeth made of animal bone. They were made for a famous American - the first President, George Washington. Most people do not consider a visit to the dentist their idea of a good time. However, the director of the museum says he wanted to make the museum a fun place to visit. He says he also wants to teach visitors about the importance of taking care of their teeth. Another museum collects devices that help people hear. The Kenneth W. Berger Hearing Aid Museum is at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio. The museum has more than three-thousand hearing aids from around the world. They include old and strange devices. Some hearing aids were made to look like other objects. That is because in the past many people did not want anyone to know they were wearing a hearing aid. 58. It is common for people to think it uneasy to pay a visit to _. A. the University of Maryland B. the Museum of Dentistry C. the Hearing Aid Museum D. the dentist59. The text mainly tells about _. A. museums in the US B. interesting American museums C. American museums with health subjects D. the history of the medical treatment of teeth60. What do we learn about George Washington from the text? A. He once visited the National Museum of Dentistry. B. He considered the Museum of Dentistry a fun place to visit C. His artificial teeth were collected in the National Museum of Dentistry. D. His teeth seemed to be made of animal bone. 61. The underlined word “devices” in the first and last paragraph probably means _. A. museums B. strategies C. hearing aids D. tools C You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is blown up in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool 62. Stuntmen are those who _. A. often dress up as actors B. prefer to lead dangerous lives C. often perform seemingly dangerous actions D. often fight each other for their lives 63. Stuntmen earn their living by _. A. playing their dirty tricks B. selling their special skills C. jumping out of high windows D. jumping from fast moving trains 64. When a stuntman falls from a high building, _. A. he needs little protection B. he will be covered with a mattress C. his life is endangered D. his safety is generally all right 65. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? A. Strength. B. Exactness. C. Speed. D. Carefulness. 66. What can be inferred from the author s example of the Norwegian stuntman? A. Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. B The percentage of serious accidents is high. C. Parachutes must be of good quality. D. The cliff is too high.D A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl for his wife s birthday. The price didnt matter, since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that costs $5, 000, he paid for the pearl in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left. A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality as she wanted a pair of earrings made. Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl? said the man. The jeweler regretfully replied, I would say its exactly impossible to find one exactly like that pearl. The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newspapers, offering $25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people answered the advertisement but nobody had a pearl that was just right. Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse. I dont like to part with it. she said sa
