A passenger plane carrying 90 people, including a Kyrgyz high school sports team, crashed shortly after takeoff on Sunday near the Kyrgyz capital, killing 68, government officials said.
The Boeing 737 was headed to Iran when it crashed near Bishkek’s ManasInternationalAirport, said government spokeswoman Roza Daudova. Twenty-two people, including two crew members, survived the accident. Earlier, Daudova had said there were at least 71 dead and 25 survivors, but she later gave lower numbers. Eighteen survivors were sent to hospital, and four others were sent home with no serious injuries, according to Daudova. Daudova also said the people on board included 24 Kyrgyz citizens, 52 Iranians, three Kazakhs, two Canadians, one citizen of Turkey and one Chinese.
An airport official said the crew reported a technical (技术的) problem about 10 minutes after the plane took off and that the plane was returning to the airport when it crashed.
Several government officials said the plane belonged to Itek Air, a Kyrgyz company,
but was operated by Iran Aseman Airlines. But Mamytov, the presidential adviser, said the plane was both owned and operated by Itek Air.
Itek Air has been banned from operating in the sky of the European Union because of failure to meet safety standards (标准), according to a list published by the EU July 24, 2008.
Kyrgyzstan is a poor, mountainous country west of China. The US air base in the ex-Soviet republic of Kyrgyzstan supports operations in nearby Afghanistan.

Last year, on report card day, my son and a bunch of his 13-year-old friends piled into the back seat of my car, ready for the last-day-of-school party at McDonald’s. “Jack got a laptop for getting straight A’s, and Laurie got a cellphone,〞 one boy said. “Oh, yeah, and Sarah got an iPod Nano, and she’s only in third grade,〞said another. “And how about Brian? He got $ 10 for each A.〞
I suddenly became concerned. These payoffs might get parents through grammar school, but what about high school and beyond? What would be left after the electric guitar, the cell phone, and the portable DVD player?
I saw the road ahead: As the homework load increased, my income would decrease. I saw my comfortable lifestyle vanish before my eyes-no more of those $ 5 bags of already-peeled organic carrots. No more organic anything!
I started to feel surprised and nervous. Would every goal attained by my two children fetch a reward? A high grade point average? A good class ranking? Would sports achievements be included in this reward system: soccer goals, touchdowns, runs-batted-in? What about orchestra? Would first chair pay more than second? I’d be penniless by eighth-grade graduation.
“We never paid anything for good grades,〞 said my neighbor across the street, whose son was recently accepted at MIT. “He just did it on his own. Maybe once in a while we went out for pizza, but that’s about it.〞
Don’t you just hate that? We’re all running around looking for the MP3 player with the most updates, and she’s spending a few dollars on pizza. She gets motivation; we get negotiation.
51．The sentence “As the homework load increased, my income would decrease.〞 in the third paragraph probably means _____________.
A．taking care of the children would influence my work
B．I would spend more money on my children’s homework
C．reducing children’s homework load would cost me a lot
D．more rewards would be needed as the children grew up
52．We can tell from the passage that the author’s son was in ___________.
A．primary school B．junior middle school
C．high school D．university
53．It can be inferred from the passage that ____________.
A．if you pay the children for good grades, they would take it for granted B．if you buy children pizza for good grades, they would work harder
C．children would not ask for rewards when they enter high school
D．children would not ask for rewards when they enter university
54．The example of the author’s neighbor shows that ____________.
A．pizza is the best way to motivate children
B．reward is not the only way to motivate children
C．the author’s neighbor was very poor
D．the author’s neighbor’s son didn’t like reward
55．What is the author’s att itude toward paying children reward for good grades？A．Favorable B．Ambiguous C．Disagreeable D．Unknowable

People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sun day in June.
Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation.
In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to
honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter.
In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national commemorative day, in 1972.
These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery.

56．According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is not true ?
A．It is a day to show love to mothers

English is becoming more and more important nowadays. Different people may have different ways to learn it well.In my opinion, the following four factors are necessary in mastering this language.
First of all, we must have a great interest in English and a strong desire to learn it well. As we know, interest s the best teacher.
Secondly, it’s necessary to spend enough time on it, which is rather important in practicing using a foreign language.
Thirdly, we are sure to meet with difficulties when learning to master English; on this occasion, we should have perseverance ,patience and study effectively to ensure us not to give up halfway.
Lastly, we can learn from those successful learners to adopt a suitable learning method and make a performable plan.。
