Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.TEXT AWe have a crisis on our hands. You mean global warming? The world economy? No, the decline of reading. People are just not doing it anymore, especially the young. Who's responsible? Actually, it's more like, What is responsible? The Internet, of course, and everything that comes with it – Facebook, Twitter (微博). You can write your own list.There's been a warning about the imminent death of literate civilization for a long time. In the 20th century, first it was the movies, then radio, then television that seemed to spell doom for the written world. None did. Reading survived; in fact it not only survived, it has flourished. The world is more literate than ever before –there are more and more readers, and more and more books.The fact that we often get our reading material online today is not something we should worry over. The electronic and digital revolution of the last two decades has arguably shown the way forward for reading and for writing. Take the arrival of e-book readers as an example. Devices like Kindle make reading more convenient and are a lot more environmentally friendly than the traditional paper book.As technology makes new ways of writing possible, new ways of reading are possible. Interconnectivity allows for the possibility of a reading experience that was barely imaginable before. Where traditional books had to make do with photographs and illustrations, an e-book can provide readers with an unlimited number of links: to texts, pictures, and videos. In the future, the way people write novels, history, and philosophy will resemble nothing seen in the past.On the other hand, there is the danger of trivialization. One Twitter group is offering its followers single-sentence-long "digests" of the great novels. War and Peace in a sentence? You must be joking. We should fear the fragmentation of reading. There is the danger that the high-speed connectivity of the Internet will reduce our attention span - that we will be incapable of reading anything of length or which requires deep concentration.In such a fast-changing world, in which reality seems to be remade each day, we need the ability to focus and understand what is happening to us. This has always been the function of literature and we should be careful not to let it disappear. Our society needs to be able to imagine the possibility of someone utterly in tune with modern technology but able to make sense of a dynamic, confusing world.In the 15th century, Johannes Guttenberg's invention of the printing press in Europe had a huge impact on civilization. Once upon a time the physical book was a challenging thing. We should remember this before we assume that technology is out to destroy traditional culture.81. Which of the following paragraphs briefly reviews the historical challenges for reading?A. Paragraph One.B. Paragraph Two.C. Paragraph Three.D. Paragraph Four.82. The following are all cited as advantages of e-books EXCEPT _____.A. multimodal contentB. environmental friendlinessC. convenience for readersD. imaginative design83. Which of the following can best describe how the author feels toward single-sentence-long novels?A. IronicB. Worried.C. Sarcastic.D. Doubtful.84. According to the passage, people need knowledge of modern technology and _____ to survive in the fast-changing society.A. good judgmentB. high sensitivityC. good imaginationD. the ability to focus85. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Technology pushes the way forward for reading and writing.B. Interconnectivity is a feature of new reading experience.C. Technology is an opportunity and a challenge for traditional reading.D. Technology offers a greater variety of reading practice.TEXT BI know when the snow melts and the first robins (知更鸟) come to call, when the laughter of children returns to the parks and playgrounds, something wonderful is about to happen.Spring cleaning.I'll admit spring cleaning is a difficult notion for modern families to grasp. Today's busy families hardly have time to load the dishwasher, much less clean the doormat. Asking the family to spend the weekend collecting winter dog piles from the melting snow in the backyard is like announcing there will be no more Wi-Fi. It interrupts the natural order."Honey, what say we spend the weekend beating the rugs, sorting through the boxes in the basement and painting our bedroom a nice lemony yellow?" I say."Can we at least wait until the NBA matches are over?" my husband answers.But I tell my family, spring cleaning can't wait. The temperature has risen just enough to melt snow but not enough for Little League practice to start. Some flowers are peeking out of the thawing ground, but there is no lawn to seed, nor garden to tend. Newly wakened from our winter's hibernation (冬眠), yet still needing extra blankets at night, we open our windows to the first fresh air floating on the breeze and all of the natural world demanding "Awake and be clean!" Biologists offer a theory about this primal impulse to clean out every drawer and closet in the house at spring's first light, which has to do with melatonin, the sleepytime hormone (激素) our bodies produce when it's dark. When spring's light comes, the melatonin diminishes, and suddenly we are awakened to the dusty, virus-filled house we've been hibernating in for four months.I tell my family about the science and psychology of a good healthy cleaning at spring's arrival. I speak to them about life's greatest rewards waiting in the removal of soap scum from the bathtub, which hasn't been properly cleaned since the first snowfall."I'll do it," says the eldest child, a 21-year-old college student who lives at home."You will? Wow!" I exclaim.Maybe after all these years, he's finally grasped the concept. Maybe he's expressing his rightfulposition as eldest child and role model. Or maybe he's going to Florida for a break in a couple of weeks and he's being nice to me who is the financial-aid officer.No matter. Seeing my adult son willingly cleaning that dirty bathtub gives me hope for the future of his 12-year-old brother who, instead of working, is found to be sleeping in the seat of the window he is supposed to be cleaning."Awake and be clean!" I say.86. According to the passage, "...spring cleaning is a difficult notion for modern families to grasp" means that spring cleaning _____.A. is no longer an easy practice to understand.B. is no longer part of modern family life.C. requires more family members to be involved.D. calls for more complicated skills and knowledge.87. Which of the following is LEAST likely to be included in family spring cleaning?A. Beating the rugs.B. Cleaning the window.C. Restoring Wi-Fi services.D. Cleaning the backyard.88. Why does the author say “spring cleaning can't wait”?A. Because there will be more activities when it gets warmer.B. Because the air is fresher and the breeze is lighter.C. Because the whole family is full of energy at spring time.D. Because the snow is melting and the ground is thawing.89. Which of the following interpretations of the biologists' theory about melatonin is INCORRECT?A. The production of melatonin in our bodies varies at different times.B. Melatonin is more likely to cause sleepiness in our bodies.C. The reduction of melatonin will cause wakefulness in our bodies.D. The amount of melatonin remains constant in our bodies.90. Which of the following can best sum up the author's overall reaction to her adult son's positive response to spring cleaning?A. Surprised and skeptical.B. Elated and hesitant.C. Relieved and optimistic.D. Optimistic and hesitant.TEXT CThese days lots of young Japanese do omiai, literally, "meet and look." Many of them do so willingly. In today's prosperous and increasingly conservative Japan, the traditional omiai kekkon, or arranged marriage, is thriving.But there is a difference. In the original omiai, the young Japanese couldn't reject the partner chosen by his parents and their middleman. After World War II, many Japanese abandoned the arranged marriage as part of their rush to adopt the more democratic ways of their American conquerors. The Western ren'ai kekkon, or love marriage, became popular; Japanese began picking their own mates by dating and falling in love.But the Western way was often found wanting in an important respect: it didn't necessarily produce a partner of the right economic, social, and educational qualifications. "Today's young people are quite calculating," says Chieko Akiyama, a social commentator.What seems to be happening now is a repetition of a familiar process in the country's history, the"Japanization" of an adopted foreign practice. The Western ideal of marrying for love is accommodated in a new omiai in which both parties are free to reject the match. "Omiai is evolving into a sort of stylized introduction," Mrs. Akiyama says.Many young Japanese now date in their early twenties, but with no thought of marriage. When they reach the age - in the middle twenties for women, the late twenties for men - they increasingly turn to omiai. Some studies suggest that as many as 40 % of marriages each year are omiai kekkon. It's hard to be sure, say those who study the matter, because many Japanese couples, when polled, describe their marriage as a love match even if it was arranged.These days, doing omiai often means going to a computer matching service rather than to a nakodo. The nakodo of tradition was an old woman who knew all the kids in the neighbourhood and went around trying to pair them off by speaking to their parents; a successful match would bring her a wedding invitation and a gift of money. But Japanese today find it's less awkward to reject a proposed partner if the nakodo is a computer.Japan has about five hundred computer matching services. Some big companies, including Mitsubishi, run one for their employees. At a typical commercial service, an applicant pays $80 to $125 to have his or her personal data stored in the computer for two years and $200 or so more if a marriage results. The stored information includes some obvious items, like education and hobbies, and some not-so-obvious ones, like whether a person is the oldest child. (First sons, and to some extent first daughters, face an obligation of caring for elderly parents.)91. According to the passage, today's young Japanese prefer _____.A. a traditional arranged marriage.B. a new type of arranged marriage.C. a Western love marriage.D. a more Westernized love marriage.92. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?A. A Western love marriage tends to miss some Japanese values.B. Less attention is paid to the partner's qualification in arranged marriages.C. Young Japanese would often calculate their partner's wealth.D. A new arranged marriage is a repetition of the older type.93. According to the passage, the figure 40% (Paragraph Five) is uncertain because _____.A. there has been a big increase in the number of arranged marriages.B. Western love marriage still remains popular among young Japanese.C. young Japanese start dating very early in their life in a Western tradition.D. the tendency for arranged marriages could be stronger than is indicated.94. One of the big differences between a traditional nakodo and its contemporary version lies in the way _____.A. wedding gifts are presented.B. a proposed partner is refused.C. formalities are arranged.D. the middleman/woman is chosen.95. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To tell the differences between an old and modern nakodo.B. To provide some examples for the traditional nakodo.C. To offer more details of the computerized nakodo.D. To sum up the main ideas and provide a conclusion.TEXT DCordia Harrington was tired of standing up all day and smelling like French fries at night.

TextoLa vida moderna no exige actividad física. Cogemos el coche para ir a trabajar, nos sentamos frente a la televisión durante horas y nos pasamos el día en la oficina. Sin embargo, la actividad física no sólo reduce el riesgo de sufrir enfermedades, sino que también produce beneficios mentales y sociales. Deberíamos dedicar una hora diaria a hacer deportes. Éstos/Estos no tienen por qué ser de gran intensidad. Lo más importante es ser constante en la práctica. También se recomienda elegir actividades fáciles y divertidas. No hace falta ir al gimnasio durante horas si no te gusta. Basta con dar un paseo diario por el parque. No intentamos ser deportistas famosos, simplemente necesitamos estar en forma, y así llevaremos una vida más saludable en todos los aspectos. (127 palabras)(第一遍结束后,录音中有指示:“开始听写”)现在考生有一分钟时间用于检查。

The world is more literate than ever before – there are more and more readers, and more and more books.The fact that we often get our reading material online today is not something we should worry over. The electronic and digital revolution of the last two decades has arguably shown the way forward for reading and for writing. Take the arrival of e-book readers as an example. Devices like Kindle make reading more convenient and are a lot more environmentally friendly than the traditional paper book.As technology makes new ways of writing possible, new ways of reading are possible. Interconnectivity allows for the possibility of a reading experience that was barely imaginable before. Where traditional books had to make do with photographs and illustrations, an e-book can provide readers with an unlimited number of links: to texts, pictures, and videos. In the future, the way people write novels, history, and philosophy will resemble nothing seen in the past.On the other hand, there is the danger of trivialization. One Twitter group is offering its followers single-sentence-long "digests" of the great novels. War and Peace in a sentence? You must be joking. We should fear the fragmentation of reading. There is the danger that the high-speed connectivity of the Internet will reduce our attention span - that we will be incapable of reading anything of length or which requires deep concentration.In such a fast-changing world, in which reality seems to be remade each day, we need the ability to focus and understand what is happening to us. This has always been the function of literature and we should be careful not to let it disappear. Our society needs to be able to imagine the possibility of someone utterly in tune with modern technology but able to make sense of a dynamic, confusing world.In the 15th century, Johannes Guttenberg's invention of the printing press in Europe had a huge impact on civilization. Once upon a time the physical book was a challenging thing. We should remember this before we assume that technology is out to destroy traditional culture.81. Which of the following paragraphs briefly reviews the historical challenges for reading?A. Paragraph One.B. Paragraph Two.C. Paragraph Three.D. Paragraph Four.82.

What is the main idea of the passage?A. Technology pushes the way forward for reading and writing.B. Interconnectivity is a feature of new reading experience.C. Technology is an opportunity and a challenge for traditional reading.D. Technology offers a greater variety of reading practice.TEXT BI know when the snow melts and the first robins (知更鸟) come to call, when the laughter of children returns to the parks and playgrounds, something wonderful is about to happen.Spring cleaning.I'll admit spring cleaning is a difficult notion for modern families to grasp. Today's busy families hardly have time to load the dishwasher, much less clean the doormat. Asking the family to spend the weekend collecting winter dog piles from the melting snow in the backyard is like announcing there will be no more Wi-Fi. It interrupts the natural order."Honey, what say we spend the weekend beating the rugs, sorting through the boxes in the basement and painting our bedroom a nice lemony yellow?" I say."Can we at least wait until the NBA matches are over?" my husband answers.But I tell my family, spring cleaning can't wait. The temperature has risen just enough to melt snow but not enough for Little League practice to start. Some flowers are peeking out of the thawing ground, but there is no lawn to seed, nor garden to tend. Newly wakened from our winter's hibernation (冬眠), yet still needing extra blankets at night, we open our windows to the first fresh air floating on the breeze and all of the natural world demanding "Awake and be clean!"Biologists offer a theory about this primal impulse to clean out every drawer and closet in the house at spring's first light, which has to do with melatonin, the sleepytime hormone (激素) our bodies produce when it's dark. When spring's light comes, the melatonin diminishes, and suddenly we are awakened to the dusty, virus-filled house we've been hibernating in for four months.I tell my family about the science and psychology of a good healthy cleaning at spring's arrival. I speak to them about life's greatest rewards waiting in the removal of soap scum from the bathtub, which hasn't been properly cleaned since the first snowfall."I'll do it," says the eldest child, a 21-year-old college student who lives at home. "You will? Wow!" I exclaim.Maybe after all these years, he's finally grasped the concept. Maybe he's expressing his rightful position as eldest child and role model. Or maybe he's going to Floridafor a break in a couple of weeks and he's being nice to me who is the financial-aid officer.No matter. Seeing my adult son willingly cleaning that dirty bathtub gives me hope for the future of his 12-year-old brother who, instead of working, is found to be sleeping in the seat of the window he is supposed to be cleaning."Awake and be clean!" I say.86. According to the passage, "...spring cleaning is a difficult notion for modern families to grasp" means that spring cleaning _____.A. is no longer an easy practice to understand.B. is no longer part of modern family life.C. requires more family members to be involved.D. calls for more complicated skills and knowledge.87. Which of the following is LEAST likely to be included in family spring cleaning?A. Beating the rugs.B. Cleaning the window.C. Restoring Wi-Fi services.D. Cleaning the backyard.88. Why does the author say “spring cleaning can't wait”?A. Because there will be more activities when it gets warmer.B. Because the air is fresher and the breeze is lighter.C. Because the whole family is full of energy at spring time.D. Because the snow is melting and the ground is thawing.89. Which of the following interpretations of the biologists' theory about melatonin is INCORRECT?A. The production of melatonin in our bodies varies at different times.B. Melatonin is more likely to cause sleepiness in our bodies.C. The reduction of melatonin will cause wakefulness in our bodies.D. The amount of melatonin remains constant in our bodies.90. Which of the following can best sum up the author's overall reaction to her adult son's positive response to spring cleaning?A. Surprised and skeptical.B. Elated and hesitant.C. Relieved and optimistic.D. Optimistic and hesitant.TEXT CThese days lots of young Japanese do omiai, literally, "meet and look." Many of them do so willingly. In today's prosperous and increasingly conservative Japan, the traditional omiai kekkon, or arranged marriage, is thriving.But there is a difference. In the original omiai, the young Japanese couldn't reject the partner chosen by his parents and their middleman. After World War II, many Japanese abandoned the arranged marriage as part of their rush to adopt the more democratic ways of their American conquerors. The Western ren'ai kekkon, or love marriage, became popular; Japanese began picking their own mates by dating and falling in love.But the Western way was often found wanting in an important respect: it didn't necessarily produce a partner of the right economic, social, and educational qualifications. "Today's young people are quite calculating," says Chieko Akiyama,a social commentator.What seems to be happening now is a repetition of a familiar process in the country's history, the "Japanization" of an adopted foreign practice. The Western ideal of marrying for love is accommodated in a new omiai in which both parties are free to reject the match. "Omiai is evolving into a sort of stylized introduction," Mrs. Akiyama says.Many young Japanese now date in their early twenties, but with no thought of marriage. When they reach the age - in the middle twenties for women, the late twenties for men - they increasingly turn to omiai. Some studies suggest that as many as 40 % of marriages each year are omiai kekkon. It's hard to be sure, say those who study the matter, because many Japanese couples, when polled, describe their marriage as a love match even if it was arranged.These days, doing omiai often means going to a computer matching service rather than to a nakodo. The nakodo of tradition was an old woman who knew all the kids in the neighbourhood and went around trying to pair them off by speaking to their parents;a successful match would bring her a wedding invitation and a gift of money. But Japanese today find it's less awkward to reject a proposed partner if the nakodo is a computer.Japan has about five hundred computer matching services. Some big companies, including Mitsubishi, run one for their employees. At a typical commercial service, an applicant pays $80 to $125 to have his or her personal data stored in the computer for two years and $200 or so more if a marriage results. The stored information includes some obvious items, like education and hobbies, and some not-so-obvious ones, like whether a person is the oldest child. (First sons, and to some extent first daughters, face an obligation of caring for elderly parents.)91. According to the passage, today's young Japanese prefer _____.A. a traditional arranged marriage.B. a new type of arranged marriage.C. a Western love marriage.D. a more Westernized love marriage.92. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?A. A Western love marriage tends to miss some Japanese values.B. Less attention is paid to the partner's qualification in arranged marriages.C. Young Japanese would often calculate their partner's wealth.D. A new arranged marriage is a repetition of the older type.93. According to the passage, the figure 40% (Paragraph Five) is uncertain because _____.A. there has been a big increase in the number of arranged marriages.B. Western love marriage still remains popular among young Japanese.C. young Japanese start dating very early in their life in a Western tradition.D. the tendency for arranged marriages could be stronger than is indicated.94. One of the big differences between a traditional nakodo and its contemporary version lies in the way _____.A. wedding gifts are presented.B. a proposed partner is refused.C. formalities are arranged.D. the middleman/woman is chosen.95. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?。

Afte r all, the British weather wasn’tvery good, even in summer, so a lot of people left the country for a vacation.In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became wealthier on averag e. As a result, theystarted to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain an d Greece. Once they arrived at their destination, they met with other groups of young people and had one long party.British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate change me ans that the UKnow has a hotter climate, so people do not need to go oversea s to find good weather. Also,going abroad is more expensive.

It’s not uncommon to find your trade table broken, the in -flight entertainment system not working and your seat cushion worn. All of this can make you think how old is this plane anyway.The reality for many US air travelers is that most of their journeys take place on planes thathave been in service for a decade or more. The average age of the fleet of the seven large USApassenger airlines is about 14 years old accor ding to the airline monitor. It found American andDelta Northwest have the ol dest fleets at about 16 years on average.At the end of 2008, a small percentage of the merged Delta Northwest planes dated back to thelate 1960s.“US. fleets are among the oldest in the world,” said Richard Albelafia, an elev ation analyst,“I’m not really sure that people should read that much into that.” Albelafia sa id,“ Forthe safe ty’s stand point, a lot of the old planes will build tougher and wit h proper maintenance. There’s no reason why a plane can stay safe for 25 t o 30 years. It’s alsoimportant to remember that the plane may be 20 years o ld, but its engines and other majorsystems could be recently manufactured an d upgraded.” said Albelafia,“There’s less pressure on the airlines to upgrade the interior unless the safet y issue or redesign that will save money.Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.Higher education isn’t for everyone and people have a variety of parts to cho ose from oncethey graduate from high school.

B ut the video pictures taken aweek ago were not very clear. The camera which filmed the men was about 200 meters awayfrom a parked lorry which the ro bbers later used as a get-away vehicle. The men were alsofilmed wearing ho ods as they ran towards the lorry after the robbery. The pictures are timed at 9:05 a.m. last Saturday, just half an hour before the robbery occurred. Witne sses have confirmed that at some time during this half hour, they saw the tw o men without hoods leavethe lorry separately. Despite the quality of the vid eo, the police believe the robbers are distinct enough to be identified. The fi rst suspect who got out of the driver side of the lorry wasabout 5 foot 6 inch es tall and fat. He was wearing a grey jacket with a hood and dark trousers. The passenger was slimmer and slightly taller, about 5 foot 8 inches and was wearing light bluejeans and a white jacket with a hooded jogging top. Accord ing to the police, the lorry stored inthe parking lot of the city mall last month had been repainted from white to silver and fadedwith false registration plate s.ECTION C NEWS BROADCASTNews Item 1 (For Questions 21 and 22)American astronauts would not return to the moon as planed if US congress passes presidentObama’s proposed budget. Obama’s budget which aims to c ut funding in certain areas whileincreasing money used to create jobs would cancel NASA’s constellation programme. Theprogramme has sought to send a stronauts back to the moon by 2020. NASA’s programme also intended to stu dy the idea of establishing a moon colony. The programme was set to followt he US space agency’s shuttle missions which are due to end in September. O n its website, theWhite House Budget Office says the programme to send astr onauts to the moon is behindschedule, over budget and overall less importa nt than other space investments.“Using abroad range of criteria, an independent review panel determined t hat even if fully fundedNASA’s programme to repeat many of the achievemen ts of the Appolo era,50 years later wasthe least attractive approach to space exploration as co mpared to potential alternatives.”the site says.News Item 2 (For Questions 23 and 24)A Russian cargo ship with about 30 crew members aboard was in danger of sinking offRussia’s eastern coast while storming weather interfered with resc ue efforts , sate-run Itar-Tass news agency said Friday.Ice had formed on the outside of the ship and the crew was chipping it off. T he crew sent outthe distressed signal but there was no explanation of the problem. Because of the severe weather aircraft can’t be used to rescue the crew. According to Itar-Tass the vessel is about19 miles from the oil rig wh ere rescue vessels are based, while a tugboat dispatched from landwere still about 4 times farther away.“The cargo ship had been on route to a fishing areawhen it experienced pr oblems.” The news agency reported, “The ship hauls fish from boats toports.”News Item 3 (For Questions 25 and 26)Dozens of recording stars began converging on a Hollywood studio Monday t o add their voicesto a song. They hoped to raise millions of dollars for Haitian earthquake relief. The words andmusic are updated version of we’re the wo rld, a song that raised at least $30 million for Africanhumanitarian programm e 25 years ago. Lionel Richie who co-worked the first song with MachaelJacks on is organizing the effort. The original producer Quincy Jones is using the s ame studiohe used in 1985. Reporters and security surrounded Hanson Studios, anticipating the arrival oflimousines delivering stars on Monday afternoon for what is expect to be a marathon recording session. Smoky Robinson who sang on the original said the at least 100 singers asked to takepart does not include any of the 45 stars from the previous version. Organizers have not s aidwhen the song might be ready for the world to hear.News Item 4 (For Questions 27 and 28)AT & T plans to spend 18 billion dollars in 2010 upgrading its wireless ne tworks to handle the increasing amount of new traffic. This is roughly 2 billion dollars more than the company hadinvested in the previous year. Specificall y AT & T will add 2000 new cell sites and upgrade existing cell sites wit h 3 times more fiber links than it had in 2009. This will increase capacity to c onnect the cell towers to AT & T’s main network. AT & T, which is theonly wireless operator in the US selling iPhone, had been a target of much criticism over thispast year as many iPhone subscribers, particularly in densel y populated urban areas havecomplained about dropped calls, slow Internet access and poor service. Some critics claimed thecompany has not been spen ding enough on network upgrades to keep up with growingdemand. AT &am p; T has acknowledged that it has faced some difficulties particularly in bigciti es, but the company is closing the gap.News Item 5 (For Questions 29 and 30)An Olympics security plan, five years in the making, is taking shape in Vanco uver this week.The Canadian police since handing up the 900 million dollars s ecurity operation the largest inCanada’s history. It would involve 15,000 pol ice, private security and military personnel. TheWinter Olympics would take pace Feb.12 to 28 in 2010 in Vancouver. Political protest may postbig threats to the g ames. The threat of a terrorist attack is really as low, but the memory ofthe 1972 Monich Olympics has not gone away. That year a terrorist group attacke d the athletes’village,eventually killing 11 Israeli athletes and coaches. It is no coincidence that in Vancouver security patrols are particularly evident ar ound the low-rise apartment buildings where theathletes would be housed.

One major concern is the potential for online harassment and cyberbullying, which can have serious negative effects on individuals' mental health and well-being. In addition, social media can be a platform for the spread of misinformation and hate speech.To address these challenges, it is important for individuals and societies to take steps to ensure safety and responsibility in social media use. This could include measures such as greater regulation of social media companies to prevent the spread of harmful content, anti-harassment policies and procedures, and education and awareness campaigns aimed at promoting responsible social media use.In conclusion, while social media offers many benefits, there are also challenges and risks associated with its use. By taking steps to promote safety and responsibility, we can ensure that social media is a positive force for connection and engagement in our lives.。

(10 puntos)Para las personas que viven en el siglo XXI, es de mucha importancia hablar más de una lengua. En el caso de los que viven en los Estados Unidos, tal vez la segunda lengua deba ser el español. Este idioma es la lengua nacional de una veintena de países. Además, su uso en los Estados Unidos está aumentando.El español tuvo su origen en el latín, lengua que se extendió por casi toda Europa, sobre todo en Europa Occidental. Posteriormente, los conquistadores y colonizadores españoles que llegaron a América llevaron allí su lengua. Esto dio como resultado la sustitución de gran parte de las lenguas indígenas por el español. Sin embargo, aquellas lenguas, a su vez, co ntribuyeron al enriquecimiento del español con algunas palabras nuevas, como por ejemplo: patata, maíz, chocolate, tomate, etc. (129 palabras)听写到此结束。

Hasta ese momento todos los familiares, incluidos papá y mamá, habían creído en poder encontrar a la dulce tortuga con vida en algún sitio escondido del jardín, así que cuando Enrique puso la pobre tortuga congelada frente a los ojos de todos, Catalina dio un grito tan grande que se pudo oír en todos los rincones de la casa. La tortuga estaba envuelta en una bolsa plástica helada, con sus ojos ya cubiertos de hielo. Enrique la había sacado de lo más profundo de la nevera de la cocina. Nadie sabía cómo la tortuga de Catalina había llegado a este lugar.La mayoría de las sospechas se centraban en Diego, uno de sus primos, quien hacía unos días estuvo alojado en la casa. Era el hijo de una hermana de mamá. El pasado de este niño les llevó a todos a pensar que él había sido el asesino. Los niños no habían podido olvidar la tarde en que Diego enterró vivos a unos gatos recién nacidos, aunque más tarde los rescataron. Este hecho les dejó a todos muy sorprendidos.Frente a la tortuga congelada, Catalina empezó a llorar y Enrique trataba de consolar a su pequeña hermana prometiendo vengar la muerte del animalito. La niña no había parado de llorar hasta la noche cuando papá llegó de su trabajo y comunicó a todos la “verdadera causa”de la congelación de la tortuga. Papá cogió a Catalina en brazos, mientras tanto les explicó a los niños que desde hacía bastante tiempo, tanto él como mamá sabían que la dulce tortuga sufría de una enfermedad mortal y dolorosa. Consultaron con muchos especialistas y ninguno se atrevió a darles esperanzas de vida para la tortuga. Todo esto lo habían hecho de manera secreta y por eso los niños no llegaron a enterarse de sus constantes visitas a la clínica de animales. Sin ninguna esperanza, entre los padres decidieron congelar al animalito en la nevera,de este modo éste podría esperar hasta que la ciencia pudiera ofrecerle una cura eficaz a su enfermedad, y que sólo en aquel momento la descongelarían.Mientras papá hablaba, los niños escuchaban atentos y con la boca abierta. Terminada la historia, todos se tranquilizaron. Nadie podía entender por qué este hombre tenía tanta capacidad creativa para calmar las almas de sus hijos.Tras acostar a los dos niños en sus respectivas camas, los padres corrieron apresurados al teléfono para acusar a Diego ante sus padres. No era nada normal el comportamiento de ese niño, pues lo que había hecho a la pobre tortuga era un verdadero crimen.Con el paso del tiempo en aquella casa se hizo habitual rendirle honores a la tortuga congelada en medio de la carne y el pescado, cada vez que uno de los niños abría la puerta de la nevera para sacar algún postre.(498 palabras)Preguntas:1.¿Dónde creían los familiares que podrían encontrar a la tortuga y cómoestaría este animalito al ser encontrado?
