On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away, across the field, is an old church built on a hill. It has just stopped raining. The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground.The reason the water is so clear, and everything is so quiet and still, is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead. There are no birds because all the fish and insects, which the birds need for food, have disappeared. Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark, and are sick and dying. Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter. A farmer is working in a field planting something, but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year, the crop will be between 25 to 40 per cent lower than a few years ago. The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon, it will fall down.All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks. And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway.56. What time of the year do you think it is?A. Spring B. Summer C. Autumn D. Winter57. Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake?A. The weather is terribly cold. B. The lake is quiet.C. The area is polluted. D. They have all been killed.58. The farmer has to plant a stronger kind of seed because _.A. the soil becomes less and less.B. few plant lives can stand the weather thereC. the water in the lake cant be used to irrigate the field.D. the soil there is becoming unfit for farming.59. The underlined word “destruction” in the last paragraph means “being _.”A. developed B. destroyed C. protected D. producedPassage BEnglish as a Foreign LanguageWho taught you to speak English? Your parents, while you were a young child? Your teachers at school? Perhaps even the BBC as a grownup. Whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language.There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language, and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue. There are said to be one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? Or should we worry about the dangers of “mono-culturalism”, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music?Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? On the contrary(相反), I would have thought - although I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. Ask the people of India (where many of them speak at least some English) and Pakistan (the same situation with India)If we all speak English, will we then all start eating McDonalds burgers? Surely not. If English becomes more dominant(占主导地位的), it will kill other languages? I doubt it. When I travel in Africa or Asia, I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but also one or more other related languages, as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well.When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland. “The English language is a beautiful language. Maybe its like a rose,” he said. “But who would ever want their garden just full of rose?”Well, I love roses, and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. But the way I see it, just by planting a few roses, you dont necessarily need to pull out everything else. If more and more people want to plant English roses, thats fine by me.60. By saying “Ask the people of India and Pakistan”(in Paragraph 4), the author is trying to show that_.A. speaking the same language doesnt necessarily bring peace.B. wars can destroy the relationship between two countriesC. English doesnt kill other languagesD. English is widely used in the world61. What does “garden” in the last two paragraphs stand for?A. Language B. Family C. The world D. The Earth62.The author would probably agree that_.A. its very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a gardenB. its good for people from other countries to learn EnglishC. more and more people like to plant roses in their gardensD. English is easier to learn than other languages63. This passage is mainly about_.A. why English has become a global languageB. how many people in the world speak EnglishC. how people in the world learn English as a foreign languageD. whether we need to worry about English being a world languagePassage CBDU /bduCHINA DAILY LAUNCHESB D UBUSINESS DAILY UPDATEWant to keep abreast (赶得上) of the dynamic pulse(有力的脉搏) of Chinas economy?Get a glance at the most important business activities taking place here every day through Business Daily Update, a service offered by China Daily information via the World Wide Web.Placed under 10 categories, over 25 news items appear each day with the top three events high lighted all in English Business Daily Update is just a few mouse clicks away.Subscribe to BDU for an annual fee of U.S.240.E-mail and fax services are also available upon request.For more information, please contact Business Daily Update.Tel: (010) 64941107,(010)64924488 ext. 2000;Fax: +86-10-64941125Email: bdu chinadaily. com. cn;Url: www.chinadaily.

When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship（奖学金）and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted（吸毒）parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. “What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,” she wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”.68. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a. Her mother died of AIDS.b. She worked at a petrol station.c. She got admitted into Harvard.d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A. b, a, e, c, d B. a, b, c, e, d C. e, d, b, a, c D. b, e, a, d, c69. The main idea of the passage is _.A. how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB. what a hard time Liz had in her childhoodC. why Liz loved her parents so muchD. how Liz struggled to change her life70. What actually made her go towards her goal?A. Envy and encouragement.B. Willpower and determination.C. Decisions and understanding. D. Love and respect for her parents.71. When she wrote “What drove me to live on.I had only experienced a small part of the society”, she meant that _.A. she had little experience of social lifeB. she could hardly understand the societyC. she would do something for her own lifeD. she needed to travel more around the worldPassage EMany Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents w
