It is a sport that involves more than one person, and is a wonderful family activity that gathers members together for a day of fun at a favorite waterway.Anyone who has put on water skis can attest to its health benefits it is a sport that demands and develops strength, ability and endurance.

If a person has enough knowledge about computers and computer programming, he or she can change the program s source code. The source code is like a set of directions that show the program how to operate.People change the codes so that the program will operate in a way that will meet their needs. Sometimes changing the code will make the program run faster. Or it will take problems out of the program. These problems are called bugs and can cause a computer program to shut down.People who change the source code of a computer program share these programs with each other on the Internet. Programmers enjoy being able to improve computer programs on their own. They enjoy being able to ask other people on the Internet for help with their programs. Working together, people can improve computer programs for the good of the group.However, some computer software companies worry about open-source software. They think that if people are able to create and change their own software, they will not want to buy the companies products.Many people say that open-source software is bad because the programs do not include security measures. They say that any person who is smart enough can change the programs in bad ways.The people who support open-source software say that all computer programs should be free and ideas should be open to the public.The Open-Source Initiative is a group that supports software sharing. The group says it is hard to count the number of people who use open-source software because there are no sales of it. Linux is one of the most popular open-source operating systems. The Open-Source Initiative says Linux has between four million and twenty-seven million users.The group says everyone who sends e-mail or uses the Web is using open-source software. Internet mail transports, Web servers ,( FTP文件传送/输 协议) servers and our own VOA mail system all use open-source software. 60.

The British and American editions were No. 1 and No. 3 respectively on the sales chart of the Beijing Xidan Book Building last week. The book s poster is highlighted and news about the book can often be heard on the radio.Why is the book so attractive to children? With curious mood, the author got a copy of Harry Potter. Originally, I wanted to glance over it and made some criticisms, But, out of expectation, the author has been deeply attracted by the magic world. On the other hand, one cannot help asking: where is our own Harry Potter ?The Chinese nation has a history of 5,000 years, which cannot be regarded as short and its culture is not profound. With a vast market of youngsters, China did publish many books popular among children. However, why are the present works not as good as those imported?There come two major reasons: Firstly, quite a number of children s books are of strong sense of teaching, and lack interest and entertainment. Children often have a feeling of being educated. No wonder they don t like them. Secondly, children s reading materials involving idiom stories and Chinese talents stories, though always in different covers, are usually much the same or plagiarized. One knows the ending as early as in the beginning. In final analysis, the authors of the books seldom take children s requirements into consideration.As a matter of fact, each child has his own wonderful imagination. They long to understand the world and nature. Similarly they have their own choices. They dislike similar stories, even if the stories are excellent First-class reading for children should he very interesting, which contains knowledge and the essence of national culture, which are presented in childrens language.Market is a touchstone for products. The theory also holds true for cultural products. It is hoped that the authors of children s books can learn something from the good market of Harry Potter and write out more and better books loved by children.68.The disadvantages of our books are the following EXCEPT _.A. they have little send of interest and entertainment. B. many of our books are of the same.C. the authors didn t pay much attention to the children s tastes.D. our authors never know what our children need.69.The reason why the imported book is so popular is that_.A. it has no sense of teaching B. it opens a wonderful world for children to explore C. it is only written in children s language D. it is advertised more on TV or poster70.What s the feeling of the writer when he finishes reading Harry Potter ? A. He is so angry that he wants to criticize the book. B. He is also attracted by the book.C. He is shocked by the book, meanwhile he is worried about our books.D. He can t help looking for Harry Potter.71.What does the writer mean by writing where is our own Harry Potter ?A. We are short of books for children.B. We Chinese must produce books as popular as Harry Potter.C. Authors should write books in the same way as Harry Potter.D. Our authors are hoped to make the market of our books for children take off.EPeaceful Use of Space Resources Drives China s Space ProgramChina s successful launch of its second manned spacecraft Shenzhou-6 has drawn worldwide applause. It has he-come the third nation in the world capable of putting men into space.It is widely believed home abroad that the latest progress made by China will surely improve national cohesiveness(内聚性) and make the country s 1. 3 billion people more confident in their future in terms of social and economic progress.However, some people in and outside China describe China s manned space program as a prestige project which yields little economic benefit.They argue that billions of US dollars spent on the decade-old space program may be better used for poverty relief and education as millions of Chinese still have a poor living and many children cannot afford basic schooling. However, mankind does need to make use of space resources for sustainable human development.Space technology has become increasingly important for the exploration and peaceful use of space resources due to the shrinking reserve of natural resources on the Earth.Lunar reserve of isotope helium 3 is sufficient for human need for about 10,000 years, which is attractive to the mankind being troubled by high oil prices and limited oil reserve.China has benefited from the dividend of its investment in space sector.
