where am i?” she asked. “you just destroyed the schools skeleton, mum,” explained jessica. “i brought it home to help me with my health project. i meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as i mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and dad.” jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “theyre both crazy,” she thought.56. according to jessicas mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means _a. a family honorb. a family treasurec. a family storyd. a family secret57. what can we learn about some australians ancestors form paragraph 2?a. they were involved in some crimes in australia.b. they were the earliest people living in australia.c. they were brought to australia as prisoners.d. they were not regarded as criminals in their days.58. jessicas mother fell down into a faint because she was _.a. knockedb. frightenedc. injuredd. surprised59. jessicas parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because _.a. they were crazyb. they realized their misunderstandingc. they were over excitedd. they both thought they had won the quarrelbmapping your worlddifferent forms of maps are appearing. they allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting, from the official to the unusual. meanwhile, hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. here are two of our favorites:green mapsgreen maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. users add information with a set of icons (圖標(biāo)), making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. at present there are over five hundred map projects being developed in 54 countries. green maps advertised idea is “think global, map local”. it is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place, running from community gardens to good places of birdwatching.green maps is not specifically intended for travelers. not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the green maps website.maps mashupsmany people use online maps developed by google, but not many know about the mashups of them. working in a similar way to green maps, maps mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. the mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. it ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the world. heritage site are, to the most bizarre (古怪的)，such as where americas drunkest cities are. with the mashups added to the basic google maps, a multi-layered (多層的) map can be created.60. according to the passage, which of the following is a characteristic of green maps?a. aiming at environmental protection.b. collecting icons worldwide for local maps.c. offering advice to independent travelers.d. introducing local attractions with icons.61. which of the following icons is most probably not used in green maps? 62. “map mashups” is named with the word “mashups” because .a. it gathers various kinds of informationb. it is produced by users all over the worldc. it shares icons with green mapsd. it is a branch of google maps63. what do green maps and map mashups have in common?a. they are created by local people.b. users can edit maps on the internet.c. they are environmentally friendly.d. users need to communicate with producers.cdiana jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart. “i have two kids in college, and i want to say come home, but at the same time i want to provide them with a good education,” says jacobs.the jacobs family did work out a solution: they asked and received more aid from the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan (貸款) program. they will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school. with unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the jacobs. more students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans. college administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around. at the same time, tuition（學(xué)費）continues to rise. a report from the national center for public policy and higher education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007, while average family income rose just 147%. student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade, “if we go on this way for another 25years, we wont have an affordable system of higher education,” says patrick m. callan, president of the center. “the middle class families have been financing it through debt. they will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt.” financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. the good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted. 64. how did the jacobs manage to solve their problem?a. they got help from the school and the federal government. b. they borrowed $20,000 from the school. c. they encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs.d. they asked their kids to come home.65. financial aid administrators believe that _. a. americas unemployment will fall b. the government will receive more letters of complaint c. college tuition fees will double soon d. more families will face the same problem as the jacobses66. what can we learn about the middle class families from the text? a. they blamed the government for the tuition increase.b. their income remained steady in the last decade. c. they will try their best to send kids to college.d. their debts will be paid off within 25 years.67. according to the last paragraph, the government will . a. provide most students with scholarshipsb. dismiss some financial aid administratorsc. go on providing financial support for college studentsd. stop the companies from making student loansdhave you winterized your horse yet? even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). its too bad that humans cant hibernate. in fact, as a species, we almost did. apparently, at times in the past, peasants in france liked a semi-state of human hibernation. so writes graham robb, a british scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the french peasants. as soon as the weather turned cold people all over france shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end. in line with this, jeff warren, a producer at cbc radios the current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial(人造的) lighting and the electric bulb. when historians began studying texts of the middle ages, they noticed something referred to as “first sleep”, which was not clarified, though. now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. the business of eight hours uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention. in the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. the late night period was known as “the watch”. it was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours. according to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia(失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. i
