If television is that much more attractive to children than books，why should we fight_about it? Let them watch it as they want.56．Why did the author bring a TV into his son’s room?A．To make his son keep quiet.B．To spend the night by watching TV programme.C．In order not to let his son feel lonely.D．To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.57．The baby’s reaction to the TV programme is________.A．unexpected B．encouraging C．exciting D．calm58．From this passage we know that the author is________.A．a doctor B．a reporter C．an editor D．a teacher59. According to the passage，which is true of the school children?A．They prefer reading to watching TV.B．They like watching TV after school.C．They would rather watch TV than read books.D．They like their teachers who teach them reading.60．What does the underlined phrase “fight about” mean according to the passage?A．Talk about. B．Think about.C．Quarrel about. D．Care about.BSpending as little as $5 a day on someone else could significantly boost_happiness，the team at the University of British Columbia found.Their experiments on more than 630 Americans showed they were measurably happier when they spent money on others—even if they thought spending the money on themselves would make them happier.“We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn，”said Elizabeth Dunn，a psychologist at the University of British Columbia.They asked their 600 volunteers first to rate their general happiness，report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills，gifts for themselves，gifts for others and donations to charity.“No matter how much income each person made，those who spent money on others reported greater happiness，while those who spent more on themselves did not，” Dunn said in a statement.Dunn’s team also surveyed 16 employees at a company in Boston before and after they received an annual profit －sharing bonus of between $3,000 and $8,000.“Employees who devoted more of their bonus to pro－social spending experienced greater happiness after receiving the bonus，and the manner in which they spent that bonus was a more important predictor of their happiness than the size of the bonus itself，” they wrote in their report，published in the journal Science.They gave their volunteers $5 or $20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it.Those who spent the money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it.“These findings suggest that very minor changes in spending allocations—as little as $5—may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day，” Dunn said.61．What is the general idea of the passage?A．The more you earn，the greater happiness you will get.B．Spending more money on yourself will make you happier.C．Money can buy happiness，but only if you spend it on someone else.D．You can spend only $5 a day on someone else to get happiness.62．The underlined word “boost” in the first paragraph probably means________.A．help to find B．help to bringC．help to increase D．help to get63．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Those who spend more money on others can get much more bonus.B．People usually think spending money on themselves will make them happier.C．Very small changes in spending your money may be enough to gain happiness.D．Researchers think that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn.64．Dunn is________.A．an employee in a companyB．a psychologist at a universityC．a reporter in a journalD．a volunteer in the experiment65．It can be inferred from the 6th paragraph that________.A．the volunteers not given $5 or $20 spent their own money on themselvesB．those who spent the money on someone or something else felt happier about itC．the volunteers were given $5 or $20 as a reward for the experimentD．half of the volunteers could spend the money as they likedSending a messageChen Qi had a different way of wishing people happy New Year in 2008.Instead of writing paper cards to his friends，he sent them e-cards.“It’s very convenient.Just click on the cards that you like and input your friends’e-mail addresses，”the school-boy from Chongqing said.The development of telecommunication devices and the Internet has created new ways for people to greet each other during the holidays.E－cards and text messages have become fashionable in China’s cities.“The new way helps me save my pocket money.It is also environmentally friendly because it saves paper，” Chen said.Chen is right.Statistics show that Chinese people send or give nearly 100 million paper cards every year during the New Year holiday and Spring Festival.To make all these cards，it requires 27,500 to 33,000 10－year－old trees each year,100,000 kilowatt－hours of electricity，and produces 300,000 tons of waste water.“China is a nation with a huge population.Even if everyone sends only one card a year，all the cards can add up to cause a serious waste of natural resources，”said Zhang Jianguo，a civil servant.He embraces the new greetings，despite his thumbs being tired from having to send all his greetings by text.“I have some very funny texts which I just can’t help sharing with others，” he said.However，some people don’t feel the same way.Wu Yu，a school teacher in Sichuan，is bored of the similar e－greetings she receives during the holidays.“Funny as the messages are，they convey much less personal emotions than hand written characters，” shesaid.“Most of them are made by the telecommunication companies to increase their profits in sending messages.”Other people think personalized texts can be touching.Wan Jun，a software engineer in Beijing，is proud of working out how to send his friends a text message with a ditty (小调) in it.“Whether it is with paper cards or e－greetings，the point is to let your friends know you are thinking about them，” he said.66．What is the text mainly about?A．Why e－cards are popular in China.B．How to make personalized texts.C．The trend of e－greetings in China.D．Advantages and disadvantages of paper cards.67．All of the following contributes to the popularity of e－greetings in China’s cities except________.A．the fast pace of modern lifeB．the easier access to the InternetC．telecommunication companies’effortsD．the development of telecommunication devices68．Compared with paper cards，e－cards________.A．are more expensiveB．are more personalizedC．waste more natural resourcesD．are more environmentally friendly69．Wu Yu doesn’t like the similar e－greetings she receives during the holidays mainly because________.A．they are not funny at allB．they express little personal emotionsC．they are not creativeD．they are not as beautiful as paper cards70．The underlined word “embrace”in Paragraph 5 means______.A．hug B．accept C．include D．doubtMoney，jewels and important documents are not the only valuables placed in banks these days.Some mothers store their breast milk in banks.There’re ten breast milk banks set up across the United States，where mothers can donate (捐赠) their extra milk for other women’s babies.Experts say breast milk is the best food for babies.The World Health Organization says it is the only food babies should get during the first six months of life，in most cases.Breast milk is especially important for babies born too early.Sometimes these premature_babies must stay in the hospital for many weeks.James Cameron is a doctor who treats newborns at Lutheran Children’s Hospital in Fort Wayne，Indiana.He says breast milk is almost like medicine.Doctor James Cameron：“The fact is that there are so many different proteins and specialized sugars in the breast milk that the mom’s able to make that help provide immunity (免疫力)．It’s very important for the health of the newborn.”There are several reasons some mothers may not be able to breastfeed.Some are not able to produce enough milk.Others might be taking medicines or have medical problems that prevent the process.Lucy Baur，lives near Fort Wayne.She breastfed both her children and always had more milk than they needed.She wanted to donate to the Indiana Mothers Milk Bank in Indianapolis.But freezing and shipping milk can be costly.Then，a donor station opened near her home.Milk donations in the United States work like this.Donors (捐赠人) must be willing to provide almost three liters (升) of breast milk.They freeze the milk and take it to the station.There，employees warm the milk and mix it with other mothers’milk.Then，the milk is heated to kill bacteria.After that，the technicians test samples of all the milk to make sure it is safe and healthful.The milk is re－frozen and sent to the main milk bank.The milk bank transports the milk to hospitals to feed premature or sick babies.Donors are tested for diseases before any milk is accepted.They are not permitted to smoke tobacco，use illegal drugs or drink too much alcohol.71．The purpose of setting up breast milk banks is to________.A．store extra fresh milk for school childrenB．provide milk to children who go hungryC．help mothers donate milk to other babiesD．offer free breast milk to premature babies72．The underlined phrase “premature babies” refer to________.A．babies who are born in poor healthB．babies needing special care after birthC．babies whose mother can’t produce enough milkD．babies that are born before the usual time of birth73．The breast milk is important for newborns because________.A．it prevents babies developing diseaseB．it contains rich nutrients babies needC．it is the only food suitable for babiesD．it benefits babies as the best medicine74．Which of the following shows the process of milk donations in the US?a．The breast milk is heated to kill bacteria.b．A mother donates three liters of her breast milk.c．The breast milk samples are tested to ensure its safety.d．The donors’breast milk is heated and mixed together.e．The milk is frozen again and sent to the main milk bank.A．b，d，a，c，e B．b，c，d，e，aC．b，a，d，e，c D．c，b，a，e，d75．Which of the following women is allowed to donate her extra milk?A．A heavy smoker.
