The World Health Organization (WHO)says one of every 10 medicines sold in
developing countries is either fake(假的)or of poor quality. Poor countries spend about $300 billion a year on medications. WHO officials said that meant the fake drug industry was worth of an estimated(预计的)$30 billion.Fake drugs are to blame for tens of thousands of children dying. These deaths could be easily prevented, officials said.
Trying to understand the problem, experts looked at 100 studies, all of which were completed between 2007 and 2016. The studies examined use of more than 48, 000 drugs. The experts found that 10. 5 percent of the drugs were not what they appeared to be. Drugs for treating malaria and bacterial infections (感染)were responsible for nearly 65 percent of the fake medicines .The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine estimates that 116, 000 people die each year from fake anti-malaria medication in African countries south of the Sahara Desert
A statement from WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was released with the report. He asked people to imagine a mother who uses her money for medicine instead of food and then sees her child die because the medicine is of poor quality. "This is unacceptable, "he said
In 2013, WHO officials launched a worldwide system for following fake and compromised drugs. It has received reports about nearly 1,500 problematic medicines, including drugs for the heart, diabetes, fertility mental health and cancer. WHO also noted problems with fake vaccines(疫苗)for diseases such as yellow fever.
WHO believes the examples of fake medicine it found are only “a small part”of the real problem because many fake drugs are not reported.

It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed
reading Barack Obama's Dreams from My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was, in his words, "a brilliantly (精彩的)written book". However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his back ground at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.
And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't. In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”,Dreams from My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I'm not one to lie too often(I’d hate to be caught out), I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell's 1984. I think it's
really brilliant.
The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven't read him, but haven't lied about it either)and Herman Melville.
Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to "impress" someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth!
But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. K. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story( I'll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said
they had never done so).
64. How did the author find his friend a book liar?
A. By judging his manner of speaking
B. By looking into his background
C. By mentioning a famous name.
D. By discussing the book itself.
65. Which of the following is a "guilty secret" according to the World Book Day report?
A. Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.
B. 42% of people pretended to have read 1984
C. The author admitted having read 9 books
D. Dreams from My Father is hardly read
66. By lying about reading, a person hopes to .
A. control the conversation
B. appear knowledgeable
C. learn about the book
D. make more friends
67. What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers?
A. Favorable
B. Uncaring
C. Doubtful
D. Friendly.
D
Passenger Pigeons(旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the I8th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours
It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point. there were
more than 3 billion passenger pigeons--a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller. a flock believed to be I mile wide and 320 miles(about 515 kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.
Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, People believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands, Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw are nets over them, taking a hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants
By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans need for wood, which scattered(驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again
In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.
24. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons .
A were the biggest bird in the world
B lived mainly in the south of America
C did great harm to the natural environment
D were the largest bird population in the US
25. The underlined word“undoing ”probably refers to the pigeons’ .
A. escape
B. ruin.
C. liberation
D. evolution
26. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons
A. T o seek pleasure. B T o save other birds
C To make money.
D T o protect crops
27. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?
A. It was ignored by the public

We all have to make decisions all the time, and we have an abundance of choices, ranging from tiny issues to vital ones. 36 That means the skill of good decision-making counts a lot. If you would like to improve your skill of decision making, here are four suggestions for you.
Don’t expect to have it all.
37 And there will be paths not taken, careers not chosen, to name a few. You
can imagine some “what if”situations if you must, but do not let them take up too much space in your brain.
38 __________________
It’s often good to think through your decisions. But don’t overdo it. Research can reach a point where returns begin to reduce, which makes it confusing more than clarifying. Many good decisions can be made based as much on intuition (直觉) as on careful assessment of endless data.
Don’t delay making decisions.
Yes, there is a time to put off making a decision. Perhaps you need more information. 39 . Or it’s likely that you wait for a less stressful time. Just don’t wait so long that the decision is made by your own indecisiveness.
Don’t be hard on yourself.
You decide to go on a voyage. You choose an expensive liner. Everything should work out just right. Only you didn’t expect a bug that ran around on the ship, making you and your family sick for five days. 40 But please remember it is unavoidable sometimes.
A. You can’t order every delicious dish on the menu.
B. Unfortunately, people often find it hard to make decisions.
C. Don’t count on emotion to make decisions.
D. You may regret making such a stupid decision.
E. Maybe you wish to consult with your advisor.
F. Don’t spend too much time thinking.
