Every Chinese citizen should obey and safeguard the seriousness of laws and regulations.” NHFPC sp okesman Yao Hongwen said.China’s family planning policy, introduced in the late 1970s to slow down the country’s growing population, limits most urban couples to one child and most rural couples to two. The policy was recently relaxed, allowing couples to have t wo children if one of them is an only child.Those who break the policy face severe fines. The amount of the fine is generally several times the yearly annual income of the two spouses(配偶). Some media calculations put the fine that Zhang may face at as much as 160 million yuan(over $26 million).Zhang’s birth case has caused criticism online about famous people who have morechildren than the policy allows.In an open letter on December 1, Zhang admitted that the couple has two sons and daughter and they are willing to accept investigation and punishment according to China’s laws and regulations. He apologized to the public.However, the letter denied that Zhang had lovers and was father to as many as seven children from various mothers.Zhang, one of the “fifth generation” of Chinese filmmakers, made his first directorial work in 1987 with “Red Sorghum” and has won a number of award worldwide. He was chief director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games.25.

Music speaks louder than words and it is a “language” that the whole world can understand. A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind. Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal, music has a spiritual effect on a person. Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.I have listened to music all my life. When I was twelve years old, the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up. Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America. Their influence changed the way we dressed, looked, acted and spoke... even our culture. The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just three months after the assassination(暗杀) of President John Kennedy, which had put America into a great depression. And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself.Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer. This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it. And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world. Music has a great way of touching people. Music can make you laugh, cry or shout. It's also a great source of inspiration.Try this one day and notice what happens: make yourself a cup of tea, sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs. Close your eyes, and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images-matching the music that you are listening to.28. Music has magical power because it ________.A. is a kind of languageB. can be played much louder than wordsC. receives a personal radio signalD. can influence a person's spirit29. What can we learn about the Beatles from the passage?A. They were the biggest band in American history.B. They are not accepted by modern American people.C. They appeared at a special time in American politics.D. They represented the roots of American culture.30. Music influences people in the following ways except ___________.A. connecting the listener and the composer mentallyB. transporting people from one place to anotherC. allowing people to express their emotionsD. touching and inspiring people31. What does the writer suggest people do in the last paragraph?A. Relax and listen to their favorite music.B. Enjoy drinking in spare time.C. Create vivid pictures.D. Notice everything happening around.DThe Way We Do Things Round HereSome years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite" sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly". So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures. Some of these differences may be only on the surface—dress, food and hours of work—while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate, while getting on with business. Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时). If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.32. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought .A. the American bank didn't think much of himB. the American bank might hire another personC. it's difficult to get used to American cultureD. it's easy to misunderstand Americans33. The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means .A. encouragesB. helps to narrowC. increasesD. draws attention to34. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?A. Ask the native people for help.B. Understand and accept them.C. Do things in our own way.D. Do in-depth research.35. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are .A. ItaliansB. GreeksC. GermansD. the British第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
