26、him, following several Palestinian suicide bomb attacks on Israel. “He should be punished for the killings,” an Israeli official said, “He has done nothing to stop the terrorist groups.”But the decision has angered many other countries. China said that Arafat is the true leader, elected by the Pales

27、tinian people, and removing him would harm the peace in the Middle East. Other governments share this idea.Arafat himself said: “They can kill me, but never get me out of my country.” He has spent most of his life in danger as the most important aim of Israel. But, just like a cat with nine lives, A

28、rafat escaped every time.For years he has made a practice of sleeping in a different bed each night, thinking a moving person is harder to hit. In 1985, Israel sent fighter planes to kill Arafat. The wild bombing destroyed his office in Tunis but Arafat himself was unhurt. In 1992, the aircraft in w

29、hich he was flying over North Africa broke in two during a crash landing. The pilot was killed but he managed to remain alive.What is so unbelievable is that he always remains calm in great danger. Israeli tanks and planes attacked his office building in Ram Allah in December 2001. When they saw the

30、 attackers coming, Arafats bodyguards took no notice of his orders to stay still and carried him to safety underground. Seconds later, several bombs were dropped nearby. Though safe, his bodyguards were so frightened that they were wet in sweat.But, Arafat, with Israeli tanks only 200 meters away, s

31、howed no fear at all. He stayed in the damaged office, talking by phone with foreign leaders in hope of preventing further attacks from Israel. All these experiences have made him a beloved leader to his people and an enemy to some others.But has he used up the last of his nine lives? Only time will

35、ting.C. Satisfactory.D. Doubtful.BIn the United States, friendships can be close, constant, intense, generous, and real, yet fade away in a short time if things change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greeting for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a whilethen no m

36、ore. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship where it's left off and are delighted.In the States, you can feel free to visit people's homes and share their holidays without fear that you are taking on a lasting obligation. Do not hesitate to

37、 accept hospitality because you cannot give it in return. No one will expect you to do so for they know you are far from home. Americans will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospitality easily.Once you arrive there, the welcome will be full and warm and real. Most visitors fin

38、d themselves easily invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain at home, offering what is felt as "merely" home cooked food, not "doing something" for your guest. It is felt that restaurant entertaining shows more respect and welcom

39、e. Or for various other reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties, or family custom, outsiders are not invited into homes.In the United States, both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a person to one's home than to go to a public place, except in pur

40、e business relationships. So, if your host or hostess brings you home, do not feel that you are being shown inferior treatment.60. In the United States, friendships might _ if things become different.A. disappear little by little B. last forever  C. be heartbreakingD. end suddenly

44、 D. Because a dinner at the restaurant is more expensive.   C"Yes, but what did we use to do before there was television?" How often we hear statements like this! Television hasn't been with us all that long, but we are already beginning to forget what the world was like

45、 without it. Before we admitted the "one-eyed monster" into our homes, we never found it difficult to occupy our spare time. We used to enjoy civilised pleasures. For instance, we used to have hobbies, entertain our friends and be entertained by them, go outside for our amusements. We even

46、 used to read books and listen to music occasionally. Now all our free time is regulated by the "goggle box". We rush home for our meals to be in time for this or that programme. A sandwich and a glass of beer will doanything, providing it doesn't interfere with the programme. The mons

47、ter demands and obtains absolute silence and attention. If any member of the family dares to open his mouth during a programme, he is quickly silenced.Whole generations are growing up addicted to the television. Food is left uneaten, homework undone and sleep is lost. The television is a universal t

48、hing that makes people calm. It is now standard practice for mother to keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-room and turning on the set. It doesn't matter what the children will watchso long as they are quiet.Television encourages passive enjoyment. We become content with second

49、-hand experiences. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. Little by little, television cuts us off from the real world. We get so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day in semi-darkness. Television may be a splendid medium of communication, but it prevents us from communicating

50、with each other. We only become aware how totally irrelevant television is to real living when we spend a holiday by the sea or in the mountains. In quiet, natural surrounding, we quickly discover how little we miss the King television.64. Through the passage, the writer aims to tell us _.A. how tel

55、ridges Help Animals Cross the Road -Reported by Sheila CarrickWhy did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear(灰熊)and mountain lion can cross the road. "Millions of animals

56、die each year on US roads," the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact，only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the US today. The main reason? Road kill. "Ecopassages" may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under

57、 roads. "These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents," said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed that t
