Shortly after Mary left the university (大学), she went to travel in Canada. When she returned to New York, she told a lot of interesting things to her best friend, Jack. Jack was very interested in Canada from then on and decided to have a visit there.
The next summer vacation, Jack and Mary had a plan to go to Canada together. But just before the day they left, Mary’s mother was badly ill. So she couldn’t go there. But she went to the airport to see her friend off.
When they got to the airport, Mary had to go to the washroom. After she came back, she couldn’t find Jack because there were so many people at the airport. She looked for him everywhere, but it was hard to find Jack.
Suddenly, Mary saw Jack and she felt very happy, then she shouted: “Hi, Jack. Hi, Jack. Here, Here!” At the same time, Jack waved his arms: “I’m here!”.
In three minutes, so many policemen came to the front of Jack and caught him: “please come with us to the police office.”
After the policemen found out the reason, they let him free. Why? Because the word “hijack”in the English has a different meaning. If you want to know, you can look it up in the dictionary (字典).

C. Toronto
D. New York

Many places in the world need more fresh water. Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh.
Why aren’t there many factories like the Symi factory (工厂)?
In some places, the sun is not hot enough. Or it does not shine every day. In these places, people can use other ways of heating (加热) sea water. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling(煮沸) sea water with high heat, people can quickly make a lot of fresh water.
But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. People are trying other ways.
One way is freezing (冷冻). The fresh part of salt water freezes first. To get fresh water, people take out the pieces of ice. Which way is the best? The one that gives the most water with the least money. It may be a different way for each place. Sy mi’s way seems very good for small, hot places. It does not make very much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and costs little.
That’s why people in many dry places talk about Symi!
51. From the passage we know that fresh water__________.
A. is needed in many countries
B. is very important for factories
C. is needed in every country
D. is very important for farms
52. The Symi factory __________.
A. is in every country
B. is a fresh-water factory
C. can make much fresh water at a time
D. doesn’t need sunshine every day
53. The writer is mainly talking about __________.
A. water-making factories in different countries
B. hot places and dry places
C. the ways of making fresh water from sea water
D. how to make good use of the sunlight
D
Hundreds of years ago, people carried news from place to place on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions (十亿) of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, by watching TV or reading newspapers.
Newspapers became an important part of everyday life about three hundred years ago. And they are always important. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to choose? Why do they choose some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?
Firstly, it is important to report (报道) news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may choose quite different stories to those on TV.
Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. So, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never choose stories about planes landing safely; instead they choose stories about plane accidents (事故).
Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more like to read stories about people, places and events (事件) in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.
54. According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?
A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.
B. They tell each other what they see with their eyes.
C. They listen to the radio every day.
D. They watch TV, read newspapers or search on the Internet.
55. The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that __________.
A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaper
B. people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaper
C. people can read news stories in other countries
D. people can read news stories about their own country
56. According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly read in newspapers?
A. You often play football with your friends after school.
B. Your teacher has got a cold.
C. A tiger in the city zoo runs out and people can’t catch it.
D. The bike in front of your house is lost.
57. Which of the following is TRUE in this passage?
A. News stories on the front page of every country are different.
B. People only read interesting and unusual news at their spare time.
C. News stories in newspapers must be different to those on TV.
D. Newspapers became an important part of everyday life years ago.

To most Chinese people, supper is the most important meal in a day. During the daytime, we have to go to work and don’t have too much time for breakfast and lunch.

Then, during the supper, you’d better eat some vegetables, meat and rice. They are good for your health and will give you enough energy. After supper, it’s good to take a walk for about half an hour. Also you can have some fruit.

Long long ago, there was a poor man. He had an orange tree. He took good care of it. In autumn there were many fine oranges on the tree. One of them was very, very big. It was as big as a football. Nobody saw so big an orange. The poor man was very happy. He took it to the king. The king was so happy that he gave the poor man a lot of money for it.
When a rich man heard of it, he said to himself, “It’s only an orange. Why did the king give the poor man so much money? I’ll take my gold cup to the king. He will give me more money.”The next day when the king received the gold cup, he said to the rich man, “What a beautiful cup! I’ll show you something wonderful. Please take this great orange away.”
