When she was six，she wanted to take ballet lessons. I’m embarrassed to admit how much this frightened me. I wasn't just afraid for her body, but for her feelings。

I worried about the teasing（取笑）she might get from the rest of the dance class。

But I didn’t know how to tell Kelsey all of this，and she wouldn't let up，so I enrolled her in a ballet school。

Kelsey danced with abandon, completely unaffected by what she couldn't do。

The joy o! dancing was enough。

Every person who saw Kelsey dance came away with something special. She danced for four years。

When she quit, it was only to announce that she wanted to take horseback riding lessons instead。

In fifth grade, Kelsey excitedly brought home a registration form for school basketball。

Now this was going to be a major challenge for her。

She could run only slowly，she' s short, and she still had the use of only
one hand. Warning Bells were off inside my head again, but I had learned to ignore them. The excitement in her eyes cancelled (取消）out all the drawbacks(缺陷），and we signed her up。

After the first practice the coach said that he was afraid to let her play in a game. When he explained how she might get hurt，I could see scenes lawsuits(官司）dancing in his head. But every child who plays sports takes risks, I reasoned with him。

After a few discussions and a little more encouragement, he decided to let her play.

The United States government has started a website to help children think critically about the advertising that is aimed at them. The new site is called Admongo. It claims to provide visitors with an “aducation" through games and other entertainment。

A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo。

”Call me Haiz” he says upon arrival in a ro cket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it. Dabce plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising.
The Admongo website is aimed at children eight to
twelve years old。

Its inventors say that is the age kids
develop their critical thinking abilities. Kids that age
are also a big market for advertisers.
The idea behind Admongo is to teach children
three things: To identify the advertiser. To know
what the advertiser is really saying. And to know
what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do。

Children learn these things through a video game. They create their own game character. They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes. Then they begin a trip through ad—land. They take a walk through the neighborhood。

They seek out the advertising and capture treasures. There are ads on buses and billboards. The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level.
The Admongo game takes players inside a home，to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found。

It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing.
One such area is food marketing. The Federal Trade Commission says it is an especially big business. The F.T.C。

estimates that food, drink and fast—food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2009。

The F。

T。

C。

says children are important for three reasons. They buy products. They influence parents and caregivers to buy。

And they are the future adult buyers of the products。

A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value。

First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would
like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children。

55．The purpose of launching the website is .
A．to try to influence the biggest market of buyers
B．to advertise the online video game for children
C．to help children know well about advertising
D．to advertise the products of its company
56．What can players do in the website game？
A．They can choose hair styles for their character.
B．They can play video games in the trip.
C．They can eat in a fast—food restaurant。

D．They can travel to a supermarket。

57．Children is important for advertising because they 。

A．are easily influenced by ad B．are the most potential buyers
C．are the most important for the society D．are easily affected by low-quality products
58．Which is the best possible title of the passage?
A．An advertising website aiming at children.
B．An “ad—ucation” website for children.
C．A popular online video game.
D．The Admongo's guide.

American writer Dan Brown has another
mystery(悬疑小说) in the bookstores and people are buying the new novel in record n umbers. "The Lost Symbol” is the eagerly anticipated follow-up to “The Da Vinci Code”, Dan Brown’s No。

I international phenomenon with 81 million copies in print worldwide and the UK’s biggest selling paperback novel of all time, and it will once again feature Dan Brown’s unforgettable hero，Robert Langdon.
What “The Da Vinci Code”did not do，however, was sell one million copies the day of its release(发行）。

That honor goes to Dan Brown’s third book，"The Lost Symbol,” released on September fifteenth。

By the end of its first week on the market it had sold two million copies。

The record-breaking sales made ”The Lost Symbol” the fastest-selling adult novel in history. The bookentered The New York Times Best Sellers list at the number one position on September 25.“The lost Symbol” takes place in Washington, D. C.，over a period of just twelve hours，and from the first page，Dan's readers will feel the thrill of discovery as they follow Robert Landgon through a masterful and unexpected new landscape。

Dan Brown’s prodigious talent for storytelling，filled with history，codes and intrigue，is on full display in this new book。

Robert Langdon，the Havravrd University professor from Brown’s first two books is an expert on symbols。

In this mystery, he is presented with a symbol tattooed(纹刺) on a hand。

The symbol itself might not be so unusual. But the hand has been recently disconnected form its body.
So begins the novel that takes Langdon hunting and hurrying around Washington, D。

C。

, through museums，monuments and government buildings. The professor has a vicious enemy to defeat, central intelligence agents to outsmart and a friend to save.
“This novel has been a strange and wonderful journey”, say Dan Brown himself。

“Weaving five years of research into the story’s 12-hour timeframe was an exciting challenge. Robert Langdon’s life clearly moves a lot faster than mine。

One of the teacher’s rewards is that he is using his mind on valuable subjects。

All over the world people are spending their lives either on doing jobs where the mind must be inactiveb all day, or else on highly rewarded activities which are boring. One can get accustomed to operating an adding machine for five and a half days a week，or to writing advertisements to persuade the public that one brand of cigarettes is better than another。

Yet no one would do either of these things for its own sake。

Only the money makes them tolerable.
But if you really understand an important and interesting subject，like the structure of the human body or the history of the two world wars, it is a real happiness to explain them to others, to welcome every new book on them，and to learn as you teach.
With this another reward of teaching is very closely linked。

That is the happiness of making something. When the pupils come to you, their minds are only half formed，full of black spaces and vague notions and oversimplification。

You do not merely insert a lot of facts, if you teach them properly. It is not like injecting 500 cc. of serum(血浆)，or giving a year’s dose(剂量）of vitamins. You take the living mind, and mould it. It resists sometimes。

It may lie passive and apparently refuse to accept anything you print on it。

Sometimes it takes the mould too easily, and then seems to melt（熔化）again and become featureless。

But often it comes into firmer shape as you work，and gives you the incomparable happiness of helping to create a human being。

To teach a boy the difference between truth and lie in print, to start him thinking about the meaning of poetry or patriotism（爱国），to hear him hammering back at you with the facts and arguments you have helped him to find，gives the sort of satisfaction that an artist has when he makes a picture out of blank canvas（画布）and chemical colorings，or a doctor when he hears a sick pulse pick up and carry the energies of new life under his hands.
63．What makes people tolerate boring jobs is 。

A．the money B．the job itself
C．the significance of the job D．the fact that it can develop the mind
64．According to the author, it is a real happiness 。

A．to earn a lot of money
B．to use on e’s mind on valuable subjects
C．to spend one’s life on operating an adding machine
D．to do highly rewarded jobs while the mind is inactive 65．Teaching a pupil properly means .
A．inserting a lot of facts in the mind
B．taking and molding the living mind
C．being just like injecting 500 cc.of serum
D．being the same as giving a year's does of vitamins
66．The author refers to an artist and a doctor 。

A．because both the artist and the doctor were once students
B．to show the fact that students can become good doctors and artists C．because an artist can make a picture and a doctor can hear sick pulse D．to show how a teacher feels when he succeeds in creating a human being

A few weeks ago, an asteroid（小行星）almost 30 feet across and flying along at 38，000 miles per hour flew 28，000 miles above Singapore。

Why，you might reasonably ask，should we care about a near miss from such a tiny rock? Well, I can give you one very good reason: asteroids don’t always miss。

If even a relatively little object was to strike a city, millions of people could be wiped out.
Thanks to telescopes that can see ever smaller objects at ever greater distances, we can now predict dangerous asteroid impacts decades ahead of time. We can even use current space technology and fairly simple spacecraft to alter an asteroid’s orbit（轨道）enough to avoid a collision. We simply need to get this detection-and—deflection（转向）program up and running.
President Obama has already announced a goal of landing astronauts on an asteroid by 2025 as a pioneer to a human mission to Mars。

Asteroids are deep—space bodies, orbiting the Sun, not the Earth, and traveling to one would mean sending humans into solar orbit for the very first time。

Facing those challenges of radiation, navigation and life support on a months—long trip millions of miles from home would be a perfect learning journey before a Mars(火星）trip。

Near-Earth objects like asteroids and comets — mineral—rich bodies bathed in a continuous flood of sunlight —may also be the ultimate resource depots for the human being。

To be fair, no one has ever seen the sort of impact that would destroy a city。

The most instructive incident took place in 1908 in the remote Tunguska region of Siberia，when a 120-foot—diameter asteroid exploded early one morning。

It probably killed nothing except reindeer （驯鹿）but it flattened 800 square miles of forest。

Statistically，that kind of event occurs every 200 to 300 years。

Luckily, larger asteroids are even fewer and farther between - but think
of the asteroid seven to eight miles across that annihilated the dinosaurs （恐龙)(and 75 percent of all species）65 million years ago. Certainly, when it comes to the far more numerous Tunguska-sized objects，to date we think we’ve discovered less than a half of 1 percent of the million or so that cross Earth's orbit every year。

We need to pinpoint(定位) many more of these objects and predict whether they will hit us before it’s too late. With a readily achievable detection and deflection system we can avoid the dinosaurs' fate。

67．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A．To introduce the readers a planetary defense program.
B．To prove the necessity of a planetary defense program。

C．To show the danger the earth is facing from outer—space。

D．To throw light on the development of space technology. 68．The author believes the detection—and—deflection program can .
A．send human to Mars
B．enable human to survive in deep sea
C．help human access resource in space
D．predict potential disasters on the earth
69．The example of Tunguska region is used to show 。

A．a tiny asteroid strike may be destructive
B．the danger from space is few and far between
C．the detection-and-deflection system is of no use
D．the difficulty of predicting the strike of a tiny asteroid
70．We can conclude from the passage that .
A．it's certain that the earth will be destroyed someday
B．it's vital to set up the detection-and-deflection system
C．it’s unnecessary to care about the tiny object from the space. D．it’s possible to put the planetary defense system in use in 2025.
