Mother TeresaThe Nobel Peace Prize 1979Mother Teresa was born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in Skopje*,Macedonia, on August 27, 1910. Her family was of Albaniandescent. At the age of twelve, she felt strongly the call ofGod. She knew she had to be a missionary to spread the love ofChrist. At the age of eighteen she left her parental home inSkopje and joined the Sisters of Loreto, an Irish community ofnuns with missions in India. After a few months' training in Dublin she was sent to India, where on May 24, 1931, she took her initial vows as a nun. From 1931 to 1948 Mother Teresa taught at St. Mary's High School in Calcutta, but the suffering and poverty she glimpsed outside the convent walls made such a deep impression on her that in 1948 she received permission from her superiors to leave the convent school and devote herself to working among the poorest of the poor in the slums of Calcutta. Although she had no funds, she depended on Divine Providence, and started an open-air school for slum children. Soon she was joined by voluntary helpers, and financial support was also forthcoming. This made it possible for her to extend the scope of her work.On October 7, 1950, Mother Teresa received permission from the Holy See to start her own order, "The Missionaries of Charity", whose primary task was to love and care for those persons nobody was prepared to look after. In 1965 the Society became an International Religious Family by a decree of Pope Paul VI.Today the order comprises Active and Contemplative branches of Sisters and Brothers in many countries. In 1963 both the Contemplative branch of the Sisters and the Active branch of the Brothers was founded. In 1979 the Contemplative branch of the Brothers was added, and in 1984 the Priest branch was established.The Society of Missionaries has spread all over the world, including the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries. They provide effective help to the poorest of the poor in a number of countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America,and they undertake relief work in the wake of natural catastrophes such as floods, epidemics, and famine, and for refugees. The order also has houses in North America, Europe and Australia, where they take care of the shut-ins, alcoholics, homeless, and AIDS sufferers.The Missionaries of Charity throughout the world are aided and assisted by Co-Workers who became an official International Association on March 29, 1969. By the 1990s there were over one million Co-Workers in more than 40 countries. Along with the Co-Workers, the lay Missionaries of Charity try to follow Mother Teresa's spirit and charism in their families.Mother Teresa's work has been recognized and acclaimed throughout the world and she has received a number of awards and distinctions, including the Pope John XXIII Peace Prize (1971) and the Nehru Prize for her promotion of international peace and understanding (1972). She also received the Balzan Prize (1979) and the Templeton and Magsaysay awards.。

It usually has a negative connotation (blacklist, black humor, 'black death'). Black denotes strength and authority; it is considered to be a very formal, elegant, and prestigious color (black tie, black Mercedes). In heraldry, black is the symbol of grief.Black gives the feeling of perspective and depth, but a black background diminishes readability. A black suit or dress can make you look thinner. When designing for a gallery of art or photography, you can use a black or gray background to make the other colors stand out. Black contrasts well with bright colors. Combinedwith red or orange – other very powerful colors – black gives a very aggressive color scheme.。

高英3版第3课Blackmail-课文全文

BlackmailArthur Hailey○1The chief house officer, Ogilvie, who had declared he would appear at the Croydons suite an hour after his cryptic telephone call actually took twice that time. As a result the nerves of both the Duke and Duchess were excessively frayed when the muted buzzer of the outer door eventually sounded.○2The Duchess went to the door herself. Earlier she had dispatched her maid on an invented errand and, cruelly, instructed the moon-faced male secretary –who was terrified of dogs –to exercise the Bedlington terriers. Her own tension was not lessened by the knowledge that both might return at any moment.○3A wave of cigar smoke accompanied Ogilvie in. When he had followed her to the living room, the Duchess looked pointedly at the half-burned cigar in the fat man’s mouth. “My husband and I find strong smoke offensive. Would you kindly put that out."○4The house detective's piggy eyes surveyed her sardonically from his gross jowled face. His gaze moved on to sweep the spacious, well-appointed room, encompassingthe Duke who faced them uncertainly, his back to a window.○5"Pretty neat set-up you folks got.” Taking his time, Ogilvie removed the offending cigar, knocked off the ash and flipped the butt toward an ornamental fireplace on his right. He missed, and the butt fell upon the carpet where he ignored it.○6The Duchess's lips tightened. She said sharply, imagine you did not come here to discuss décor ".○7The obese body shook in an appreciative chuckle . "No, ma'am, can't say I did. I like nice things, though." He lowered the level of his incongruous falsetto voice." Like that car of yours. The one you keep here in the hotel. Jaguar, ain't it?"○8"Aah!" It was not a spoken word, but an emission of breath from the Duke of Croydon. His wife shot him a swift, warning glance.○9"In what conceivable way does our car concern you?”○10As if the question from the Duchess had been a signal, the house detective's manner changed. He inquired abruptly, "Who else is in this place?"○11It was the Duke who answered, "No one. We sent them out."○12"There's things it pays to check." Moving with surprising speed, the fat man walked around the suite, opening doors and inspecting the space behind them. Obviously he knew the room arrangement well. After reopening and closing the outer door, he returned, apparently satisfied, to the living room.○13The Duchess had seated herself in a straight-backed Ogilvie remained standing. ○14"Now then," he said. "You two was in the hit-'n-run ."○15She met his eyes directly." What are you talking about?"○16"Don't play games, lady. This is for real." He took out a fresh cigar and bit off the end, "You saw the papers. There's been plenty on radio, too."○17Two high points of color appeared in the paleness of the Duchess of Croydon's cheeks. "What you are suggesting is the most disgusting, ridiculous..."○18"I told you –Cut it out!” The words spat forth with sudden savagery , all pretense of blandnessgone. Ignoring the Duke, Ogilvie waved the unlighted cigar under his adversary 's adversary 's nose. "You listen to me, your high-an'-mightiness. This city's burnin' mad – cops, mayor, everybody else. When they find who done that last night, who killed that kid an' its mother, then high-tailed it, they'll throw the book, and never mind who it hits, or whether they got fancy titles neither. Now I know what I know, and if I do what by rights I should, there'll be a squad of cops in here so fast you'll hardly see 'em. But I come to you first, in fairness, so's you could tell your side of it to me." The piggy eyes blinked, then hardened. " 'f you want it the other way, just sayso."○19The Duchess of Croydon – three centuries and a half of inbred arrogancebehind her –did not yield easily. Springing to her feet, her face wrathful, gray-green eyes blazing, she faced the grossness of the house detective squarely. Her tone would have withered anyone who knew her well. “You unspeakable blackguard! How dare you!”○20Even the self-assurance of Ogilvie flickered for an instant. But it was the Duke of Croydon who interjected, "It's no go, old girl. I'm afraid. It was a good try." Facing Ogilvie, he said, "What you accuse us of is true. I am to blame. I was driving the car and killed the little girl."○21"That's more like it," Ogilvie said. He lit the fresh cigar. "Now we're getting somewhere."○22Wearily, in a gesture of surrender, the Duchess of Croydon sank back into her chair. Clasping her hands to conceal their trembling, she asked. "What is it you know?"○23"Well now, I'll spell it out." The house detective took his time, leisurely putting a cloud of blue cigar smoke, his eyes sardonically on the Duchess as if challenging her objection. But beyond wrinkling her nose in distaste, she made no comment.○24Ogilvie pointed to the Duke. "Last night, early on, you went to Lindy's Place in Irish Bayou. You drove there in your fancy Jaguar, and you took a lady friend. Leastways, I guess you'd call her that if you're not too fussy."○25As Ogilvie glanced, grinning, at the Duchess, the Duke said sharply, "Get on with it!"○26"Well" – the smug fat face swung back – "the way I hear it, you won a hundred at the tables, then lost it at the bar. You were into a second hundred –with a real swinging party – when your wife here got there in a taxi. "○27"How do you know all this?"○28"I'll tell you, Duke – I've been in this town and this hotel a long time. I got friends all over. I o blige them; they do the same for me, like letting me know what gives, an’ where. There ain't much, out of the way, which people who stay in this hotel do, I don't get to hear about. Most of ’em never know I know, or know me. They think they got their little secret tucked away , and so they have – except like now."○29The Duke said coldly, "I see."○30"One thing I'd like to know. I got a curious nature, ma’ am. How'd you figure where he was?"○31The Duchess said, "You know so much... I suppose it doesn't matter. My husband has a habit of making notes while he is telephoning. Afterward he often forgets to destroy them. ”○32The house detective clucked his tongue reprovingly . "A little careless habit like that, Duke – look at the mess it gets you in. Well, here's what I figure about the rest. You an' your wife took off home, you drivin', though the way things turned out it might have been better if she'd have drove."○33"My wife doesn't drive."○34Ogilvie nodded understandingly. "Explains that one. Anyway, I reckon you were lickered ( = liquored ) up, but good..."○35The Duchess interrupted. "Then you don't know! You don't know anything for sure! You can't possibly prove..."○36"Lady, I can prove all I need to."○37The Duke cautioned, "Better let him finish, old girl."○38"That's right," Ogilvie said. "Just sit an' listen. Last night I seen you come in –through the basement, so's not to use the lobby. Looked right shaken, too, the pair of you.Just come in myself, an' I got to wondering why. Like I said, I got a curious nature."○39The Duchess breathed, "Go on."○40"Late last night the word was out about the hit-'n-run. On a hunch I went over the garage and took a quiet look-see at your car. You maybe don't know – it's away in a corner, behind a pillar where the jockeys don't see it when they're comin' by."○41The Duke licked his lips. "I suppose that doesn't matter now."○42"You might have something there," Ogilvie conceded. "Anyway, what I found made me do some scouting -- across at police headquarters where they know me too." He paused to puff again at the cigar as his listeners waited silently. When the cigar tip was glowing he inspected it, then continued. "Over there they got three things to go on. They got a headlight trim ring which musta come off when the kid an’ the woman was hit. They got some headlight glass, and lookin’ at the kid's clothin', they reckon there'll be a brush trace. "○43"A what?"○44"You rub clothes against something hard, Duchess, specially if it's shiny like a car fender, say, an' it leaves a mark the same way as finger prints. The police lab kin pick it up like they do prints –dust it, an’ it shows."○45"That's interesting," the Duke said, as if speaking of something unconnected with himself. "I didn't know that."○46"Not many do. In this case, though, I reckon it don't make a lot o' difference. On your car you got a busted headlight, and the trim ring's gone. Ain't any doubt they'd match up, even without the brush trace an’ the blood. 0h yeah, I should a told you. There's plenty of blood, though it don't show too much on the black paint."○47"Oh, my God!" A hand to her face, the Duchess turned away.○48Her husband asked, "What do you propose to do?"○49The fat man rubbed his hands together, looking down at his thick, fleshy fingers. "Like I said, I come to hear your side of it."○50The Duke said despairingly, “What can I possibly say? You know what happened.” He made an attempt to square his shoulders which did not succeed. “You'd better call the police and get it over.”○51“Well now, there's no call for being hasty .” The incongruous falsetto voice took on a musing note. “What's done's been done. Rushing any place ain't gonna bring back the kid nor its mother neither. Besides, what they'd do to you across at the headquarters, Duke, you wouldn't like. No sir, you wouldn't like it at all.”○52The other two slowly raised their eyes.○53“I was hoping,” Ogilvie said, “that you folks could suggest something.”○54The Duke said uncertainly, “I don't understand.”○55“I understand,” the Duchess of Croydon said. “You want money, don't you? You came here to blackmail us.”○56If she expected her words to shock, they did not succeed. The house detective shrugged. “Whatever names you call things, ma'am, don't matter to me. All I come for was to help you people out of trouble. But I got to live too.”○57”You'd accept money to keep silent about what you know?”○58”I reckon I might.”○59”But from what you say,”the Duchess pointed out, her poise for the moment recovered, “it would do no good. The car would be discovered in any case.”○60”I guess you'd have to take that chance. But there's some reasons it might not be. Something I ain't told you yet.”○61“Tell us now, please.”○62Ogilvie said, “I ain't figured this out myself completely. But when you hit that kid you was going away from town, not to it.”○63”We'd made a mistake in the route,” the Duchess said. “Somehow we'd becometurned around. It's easily done in New Orleans, with the street winding as they do. Afterward, using side streets, we went back. “○64“I thought it might be that,” Ogilvie nodded understandingly. “But the police ain't figured it that way. They’re looking for somebody who was headed out. That's why, right now, they're workin' on the suburbs and the outside towns. They may get around to searchin' downtown, but it won't be yet. “○65“How long before they do?”○66“Maybe three, four days. They got a lot of other places to look first.”○67“How could that help us --- the delay‘?”○68“It might,” Ogilvie said. “Providin' nobody twigs the car – an' seein' where it is, you might be lucky there. An' if you can get it away.”○69“You mean out of the state?”○70“I mean out o’ the South.”○71“That wouldn't be easy?”○72“No, ma'am. Every state around – Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, all the rest'll be watching for a car damaged the way yours is.”○73The Duchess considered. “Is there any possibility of having repairs made first? If the work were done discreetly we could pay well. “○74The house detective shook his head emphatically. “You try that, you might as well walk over to headquarters right now an' give up. Every repair shop in Louisiana's been told to holler 'cops' the minute a car needing fixin' like yours comes in. They'd do it, too. You people are hot.”○75The Duchess of Croydon kept firm, tight rein on her racing mind. It was essential, she knew, that her thinking remain calm and reasoned. In the last few minutes the conversation had become as seemingly casual as if the discussion were of some minor domestic matter and not survival itself. She intended to keep it that way. Once more,she was aware, the role of leadership had fallen to her, her husband now a tense but passive spectator of the exchange between the evil tat man and herself. No matter. What was inevitable must be accepted. The important thing was to consider all eventualities. A thought occurred to her.○76“The piece from our car which you say the police have. What is it called?”○77“A trim ring.”○78“Is it traceable?”○79Ogilvie nodded affirmatively. “They can figure what kind o' car it's from --- make, model, an' maybe the year, or close to it. Same thing with the glass. But with your car being foreign, it'll likely take a few days.”○80“But after that,” she persisted, “the police will know they're looking for a Jaguar?”○81“I reckon that 's so. “○82Today was Tuesday. From all that this man said, they had until Friday or Saturday at best. With calculated coolness the Duchess reasoned: the situation came down to one essential. Assuming the hotel man was bought off, their only chance -- a slim one -- lay in removing the car quickly, If it could be got north, to one of the big cities where the New Orleans tragedy and search would be unknown, repairs could be made quietly, the incriminating evidence removed. Then, even if suspicion settled on the Croydons later, nothing could be proved. But how to get the car away?○83Undoubtedly what this oafish detective said was true: As well as Louisiana, the other states through which the car would have to pass would be alert and watchful. Every highway patrol would be on the lookout for a damaged head-light with a missing trim ring. There would probably be road-blocks. It would be hard not to fall victim to some sharpeyed policeman.○84But it might be done. If the car could be driven at night and concealed by day. There were plenty of places to pull off the highway and be unobserved. It would be hazardous, but no more than waiting here for certain detection. There would be backroads. They could choose an unlikely route to avoid attention.○85But there would be other complications ... and now was the time to consider them. Traveling by secondary roads would be difficult unless knowing the terrain. The Croydons did not. Nor was either of them adept at using maps. And when they stopped for petrol, as they would have to, their speech and manner would betray them, making them conspicuous . And yet ... these were risks which had to be taken.○86Or had they?○87The Duchess faced Ogilvie. “How much do you want?”○88The abruptness took him by surprise. “Well ... I figure you people are pretty well fixed.”○89She said coldly, “I asked how much.”○90The piggy eyes blinked. Ten thousand dollars.”○91Though it was twice what she had expected, her expression did not change. “Assuming we paid this grotesque amount, what would we receive in return?”○92The fat man seemed puzzled. “Like I said, I keep quiet about what I know.”○93“And the alternative ?”○94He shrugged. “I go down the lobby. I pick up a phone. “○95“No,” The statement was unequivocal . “We will not pay, you.”○96As the Duke of Croydon shifted uneasily, the house detective's bulbous countenance reddened, “Now listen, lady…”○97Peremptorily she cut him oft. “I will not listen. Instead, you will listen to me.” Her eyes were riveted on his face, her handsome, high cheek boned features set in their most imperious mold. “We would achieve nothing by paying you, except possibly a few days' respite . You have made that abundantly clear.”○98“That's a chance you gotta...”○99“Silence!” Her voice was a whiplash. Eyes bored into him. Swallowing, sullenly , he complied .100What came next, the Duchess of Croydon knew, could be the most significant thing she had ever done. There must be no mistake, no vacillation or dallying because of her own smallness of mind. When you were playing for the highest stakes, you made the highest bid. She intended to gamble on the fat man's greed. She must do so in such a way as to place the outcome beyond any doubt.101She declared decisively, “We will not pay you ten thousand dollars. But we will pay you twenty-f ive thousand dollars.”102The house detective's eyes bulged.103“In return for that,” she continued evenly, “You will drive our car north.”104Ogilvie continued to stare.105“Twenty-five thousand dollars,”she repeated. “Ten thousand now. Fifteen thousand more when you meet us in Chicago.”106Still without speaking, the fat man licked his lips. His beadyeyes, as if unbelieving, were focused upon her own. The silence hung.107Then, as she watched intently, he gave the slightest of nods.108The silence remained. At length Ogilvie spoke. “This cigar bother in' you, Duchess?”109As she nodded, he put it out.(from Hotel, 1965)。

He’d like to choose a girl to be his wife, and the girl must be like the one in the books written by Somerest Maugham.This ad was at once known by thousands of parents and young girls. Parents went to bookstores to look for the book written by Somerest Maugham. They bought those books for their daughters as presents. Girls tried to get those books to read. They wanted to know what kind of person the rich man wished for.Before long all the books written by Somerest Maugham were sold out and the writer was known all over the country.Who was the richest man? It was Somerest Maugham himself. The ad saved his books, and it also made him famous.36. What do you think of the writer Somerest Maugham?A. He was clever, but he didn’t tell the true thing.B. He couldn’t have a wife because he wasn’t a good writer.C. He couldn’t have a wife though he was rich and famous.D. He was well received by the girls.37. Why did Somerest Maugham give the ad in the newspaper?A. He wanted to make himself a great storywriter.B. He wanted to choose the best girl to be his wife.C. He wanted to be the best bookseller and be rich.D. He wanted to write more books.38. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Many parents bought Maugham’s books for their daughters.B. Girls had to read those books if they hoped to be the man’s wife.C. Maugham gave an ad in the newspapers for one of his friends.D. Thanks to the ad, Maugham’s books sold well.39. Which is the best title for this passage?A. A Writer Wanted a WifeB. A Good Idea to Be RichC. A Clever Idea to Make Himself FamousD. An Ad for a WifeB“Yes, I’ll be ready at nine in the morning. Goodbye, dear, and thanks again.”It had not been an easy telephone call for Mrs Robson to make. Her daughter had been very kind, of course, and had immediately agreed to pick her up and drive her to the station, but Mrs Robson hated to say that she needed help. Since her husband had died ten years before, she had prided herself on her independence. She had continued to live in their little house alone.On this evening, however, she was standing at her living-room window, staringout at the SOLD notice in the small front garden. Her feelings were mixed. Of course, she was sad at the thought of leaving the house, as it was full of so many memories. But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last years near the sea, back in the little seaside town where she had been born. With the money from the sale of the house, she had bought a little flat there. She turned from the living room window, and looked round at the room. One or two pieces of furniture remained, covered with sheets. All her pictures had been taken from the walls. There was a small tank, with two goldfish in it. When asked why, her husband used to say: “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.”Since he had passed away, she had always kept some goldfish, had always had “something alive in the room”.The next morning, as her train was pulling out of the station, Mrs Robson called to her daughter, “Kate, you won’t forget to collect the goldfish, will you? The children will love them. It’s …”“I know,” Kate interrupted gently. “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.” But in the little house, the two goldfish had stopped their circling. They were floating on the water, in the room with silent walls.40. According to the passage, we know that Mrs Robson _____.A. was a person who liked to be aloneB. was not able to help herselfC. did not like asking people for helpD. wanted to live without her husband41. On her last night in the house, Mrs Robson was _____.A. a bit sad but not totally unhappyB. very happy but completely unable to help herselfC. proud and sadD. in poor spirits42. Mrs Robson was going to _____.A. be in hospitalB. live with her daughterC. meet her husbandD. live where she was born43. The little house meant a lot to Mrs Robson because _____.A. it had a long historyB. an important part of her life was spent thereC. it was full of petsD. many friends visited itCNot only did the students ask for changes in the list of required subjects, but they also demanded the right to choose their courses according to their own taste and future needs. No more fixed programs, no guidance from educators and professors. All they wanted was to get their degree as fast as possible and go to work.Although the educators didn’t all agree, a majority recognized that times had indeed changed and that education should perhaps adapt itself to the realities of modern society. Colleges and universities revised their programs to include a large number of specialized courses in business, nursing, engineering, and other professional fields. In the 1960s they also added courses requested by the students because they considered them “relevant”(Women Studies, Revolution, or Black History) or useful (glass blowing infant care, slow-running, or family life). The students were granted the right to choose their courses as they wished. Many traditional subjects had to be dropped, including history and foreign languages; the liberal education courses that were still useful were often neglected by the students, who didn’t feel like working hard to learn something that was not required for graduation.Whether the revised programs have helped college graduates to find employment quickly is not clear. But after fifteen or twenty years of experimentation, they have raised a lot of criticism. Some of it comes from the graduates themselves, who discover that their practical knowledge is neither deep nor flexible. As soon as they progress to higher positions, they find that they need management training andmore study in their own field. Besides, they feel disabled by their lack of general knowledge; for example, by their ignorance of the language and culture of the foreigners with whom they are doing business. Most of all they suffer from their inability to use English, their own language, easily and properly.44. What else did they demand, besides a change of program?A. The right to choose their coursesB. The right to choose their professorsC. The right to choose their degreeD. The right to choose their university and college45. The reaction of the colleges was that _____.A. all the educators disagree with themB. all the educators agree with themC. few educators agree with themD. few educators disagree with them46._____ criticized the new system of education.A. GraduatesB. EmployersC. EducatorsD. Both A and B47. According to the critics, the main problems are _____.A.the practical knowledge is impracticalB. the general knowledge is too muchC. they learned too much useless knowledgeD. they are not able to use their knowledge effectivelyDGetting a new PC is one thing. Keeping it running smoothly is quite another. While a personal computer should continue to perform well for years, users know that system unsteadiness does exist. Yet you can reduce it to the smallest amount by following the tips below.First, put in as little software as possible. You’ll have fewer software-related problems and a system that is easier to manage.Second, you should ensure that you have as much memory(RAM) in your PC as youneed. If you run Windows98, your computer should have at least 128 megabytes(MB) of RAM or more. You can also get by with 128MB of RAM if you use Windows NT or Windows2000, but these operating systems will run much more smoothly if you have 256MB of RAM or more.Third, make sure you buy good hardware. No-name products may be cheaper and sometimes just as good as named-brand products, but named-brand products usually became well known because of their steadiness. It’s wise to buy products from famous companies because Windows will more often support the hardware that you buy. If you are starting out with computers, it’s also a good idea to buy ready-made systems from major manufacturers. They are likely to have been tested thoroughly with your operating system, and you will generally experience fewer problems.Fourth, do prepare for disaster. No matter how well your system runs when you get it, the day will come when it will need to be replaced. Hopefully, you will replace it because technology has become out-dated, but you may need to replace it also because the hard drive crashes or you begin experiencing problems that no one can figure out. That’s why it’s important to copy your important information regularly. Whether you use a tape backup device or a CD-RW drive, it’s important to make a regular backup plan and stick to it.48. If you want to use Windows2000, but your computer only has 64 MB. What will youhave to do?A. Change its RAM for at least 256MB.B. Put in good software in your computerC. Enlarge its memory to at least 128MBD. Buy another new computer to match it49. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. your computer will save the important information when its hard drive crashesB. your computer might lose all the information it stores when it crashesC. you must not put in much softwareD. you’d better use 128MB of RAM if you run Windows NT50. The best title of this passage would be _____.A. The Tips You Must FollowB. How to Start Out with a ComputerC. How to Use Your PC BetterD. How to Keep Your PC Steady51. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. System unsteadinessB. Personal computerC. To perform wellD. Getting a new PCEK. Smith says: “Apart from classroom lecture and textbooks, I read The World of English on my own and am glad to say that I am getting more help from the magazine than from the teacher, who tries to explain Chinese lessons partly in English and partly in offband (即席的) Chinese. When I get The World of English to teach me Chinese, I find the learning easier with Chinese texts paralleled(对照的), word for word, phrase for phrase, sentence for sentence, with the English original. The Chinese translation is of course intended to help Chinese learners of English. But I turn it around using the English original as a means to reach my own goal of studying the Chinese language well. I am pleased with my experience and introduce this method of studying Chinese to other foreign students at other Chinese universities in Beijing, especially the Beijing Languages Institute where foreign students of the Chinese language are massed. I think they should use The World of English as their textbook for the study of Chinese, if they haven’t already done so.”52. K. Smith is, probably, _____.A. a Frenchman who studies Chinese in ChinaB. An Egyptian studying the Chinese languageC. an American who knows ChineseD. a foreign student who knows English studies Chinese53. From the passage we know that K. Smith reads The World of English _____.A. only for pleasureB. only finding something strangeC. mainly to go over his ChineseD. by regarding it as necessary to his study of Chinese54. K. Smith finds The World of English _____.A. easier for the Chinese and foreign students to readB. a good and fit book for all kinds of studentsC. a great help to foreign students learning ChineseD. a good help to many Chinese students55. K. Smith _____.A. suggests all his schoolmates should follow himB. suggests that foreign students studying Chinese follow him and is sure of thisC. advises all his schoolmates to do like himD. thinks foreign students will, certainly, do as he does第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节:对话填空 (共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真浏览以下对话,并根据各题所给的首字母的提示,在答题卡右栏中标有标题的横线上,写出一个英语单词的残缺、正确的方式,使对话迟滞。

good day. But it wasn't a good day. We were anchored in what used to be the most productive fishing site in all of central Asia, but as I looked out over the bow, the prospects of a good catch looked bleak. Where there should have been gentle blue-green waves lapping against the side of the ship, there was nothing but hot dry sand – as far as I could see in all directions. The other ships of the fleet were also at rest in the sand, scattered in the dunes that stretched all the way to the horizon. Ten years ago the Aral was the fourth-largest inland sea in the world, comparable to the largest of North America's Great Lakes. Now it is disappearing because the water that used to feed it has been diverted in an ill-considered irrigation scheme to grow cotton in the desert.The new shoreline was almost forty kilometers across the sand from where the fishing fleet was now permanently docked. Meanwhile, in the nearby town of Muynak the people were still canning fish – brought not from the Aral Sea but shipped by rail through Siberia from the Pacific Ocean, more than a thousand miles away. 是丰收季节。

Unit3 Protecting ourselves课外浏览练习浏览以下短文,从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项中,选出最好选项。

Recently the World Health Organization announced that the disease of smallpox(天花)had almost been wiped out in most parts of the world, thanks to widespread vaccination(种牛痘).Most people are vaccinated at least once in their lives and if they wish to travel from one country to another they must be able to prove that they have had a recent vaccination.In this way the disease has been prevented from spreading and today one seldom hears of it at all.This is mainly because of the great discovery made by a village doctor, Edward Jenner, in about 1798 when he published his report of his new experiment called vaccination (from the word “vacca” meaning a cow).Jenner discovered that people who worked with cattle often suffered from a harmless disease which they caught from the cattle, but these people never seemed to get smallpox.So he experimented by putting the disease into a small opening on the arms of healthy people, and though their arms became painful for a day or two, they soon recovered and none of these people ever got smallpox.So the news of the wonderful discovery spread to other countries and people rushed to their doctors to be vaccinated.In many countries the simple way to deal with the arm was done on thousands of people, and the terrible smallpox began to disappear.1.Which of the following is an ineffectual way of preventing the spread of smallpox?A.People going abroad should promise not to spread the disease.B.Most people were vaccinated against the disease at least once.C.People travelling from one country to another must prove they are vaccinated.D.People must be vaccinated shortly before going to foreign countries.2.The doctor's new discovery was called “vaccination”for the reason that ____.A.he discovered smallpox near a farmB.he was working with cattle in the countrysideC.he experimented with a disease from the cattle D.people got the disease of smallpox from the cattle3.The news of the discovery ____.A.spread far and near in the western countriesB.made people rush to Dr Jenner for vaccination C.helped to get rid of the terrible disease of smallpox D.caught people's attention from all corners of the world答案:A C D科学睡眠健康成长——在国旗下的发言各位尊敬的老师、各位亲爱的同学:大家上午好!我是来自预备二班的***。
