They shook and pulled, 26 the control string and the long tail 27 them in tow(牽引), facing upward and against the wind. As the

11、 kites 28 and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be 29 !” They soared beautifully even as they fought the restriction(約束) of the string. 30 , one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose. “ Free at last,” it seemed to say. “Free to fly with the wind.”Ye

It dropped ungracefully to the ground and 33 in the wild mass of weeds, string against a dead bush. “Free at last” - free to lie powerless in the dirt, to be blown 34 along the ground, and to lodge lifeless against the first obstr

Control is a 36 counterpart to the winds of opposition. Some of us tug at the rules so hard that we 37 soar to reach the heights we might have obtained

We keep part of the commandment and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground.Let us 38 rise to the great heights, 39 that some of the controls that we may be unhappy about are actually the steadying force that helps us 40 and achieve.21 Acreations Buniforms Copinions Dremarks22 Asing

18、ck greenhouse gas outpouring. In the decades to come, Asia-home to more than half the worlds 63 billion people-will change from one climate extreme to another, with tired farmers battling droughts, floods, disease, food shortages and rising sea levels.“Its not a pretty picture,” said Steve Sawyer, c

19、limate policy adviser with Greenpeace in Amsterdam. Global warming and changes of weather patterns are already occurring and there is more than enough carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to drive climate change for decades to come.Already, changes are being felt in Asia but w

20、orse is likely to come, Sawyer and top climate bodies say, and could lead to mass migration and widespread human disasters. According to predictions, icebergs will melt faster, some Pacific and Indian Ocean islands will have to evacuate or build sea defenses, storms will become more intense and inse

21、ct-and water-borne diseases will move into new areas as the world warms.All this comes on top of rising populations and earnest demand for food, water and other resources. Experts say environmental worsening such as deforestation and pollution will likely enlarge the results of climate change.In wha

22、t could be a sign of the future, Japan was hit by a record of 10 typhoons and tropical storms this year, while two-thirds of Bangladesh, parts of Nepal and large areas of northeastern India were flooded, affecting 50 million people, destroying livelihoods and making tens of thousands ill.The year be

23、fore, a winter cold strike and a summer heat wave killed more than 2,000 people in India.41This passage is mainly about .Awhat kind of weather we like best Bthe weather predictions for Asia in the future and the reasons Chow to improve our environmentDthat the world will not be suitable for us to li

24、ve in42In the future the Asian farmers will have to face the following except .Afood shortages Bdroughts Cwars Dfloods43The underlined word “doomsday” may give us the feeling of .Ahappiness Bsadness Cpeace Dexcitement44Which of the following is NOT right according to the passage?AAsian climate will

25、change greatly.BSome islands may be flooded in the future.CMore than 50 million people have been killed in Asia the year before.Dpeople may meet with some new diseases borne from water. BIn a society such as the United States or Canada, which has many national, religious and cultural differences, pe

26、ople highly value individualism-the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize all possible basic knowledge. Instead, they work individually and f

27、ind answers by themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas and opinions.In most Asia societies, by contrast, the people have the same language, history and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of the orie

28、nt reflects societys belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan and Korea often work together and help one another on assignments.There are advantages and disadvantages of both systems of education. For example, one advantage of the system in Japan is that

29、 students there learn much more about math, physics, biology and chemistry than American students by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. The system is difficult, but it prepares students for a society that values discipline and

30、 self-control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information that they have memorized.The advantage of the educational system in North America, on the other hand, is t

31、hat students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from school, they havent memorized as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries have.45The writers purpose of writi

32、ng this passage is .Ato share his idea with others in a new wayBto introduce two different systems of education through contrastCto criticize the society that values memorization Dto prepare students for society46Which is NOT true according to the passage?AThe system of education in the West is more

33、 creative than that in the EastBJapanese students learn much more about science than American students.CCanadian students are more individual than Korean students.DStudents in North America are not so friendly as those in Asia.47From the facts, we can infer that .AAsian students are more likely to d

35、best title for the passage?AAdvantages and Disadvantages of Educational System.BThe Value of Individualism.CEducational System-an Obvious Difference between the East and the West.DMemorization-an Important Learning Method.CAn Australian man has beaten 75 other contestants from around the world to wi

36、n a race up the stairs of the worlds tallest building, Taipei 101.Paul Crake,30, ran up 91 floors containing 2,046 steps in 10 minutes, 29 seconds. Mr. Crake, who has won a similar race up the Empire State Building five times, won $5,920 in prize money. The womens race was won by Austrian Andrea May

37、r, who finished in 12 minutes,38 seconds and also won a $5,920 prize.Austrian Rudolf Reitheiger, who beat Mr. Crake in this years Empire State Building Race, came second in the mens competition.Mr. Crake and Ms. Mayr missed out on the offer of $30,000 for completing the grueling race in under 10 or

38、12 minutes respectively.A further 1,001 people took part in a so-called “self-challenging” race up the skyscraper.Taipei 101 is 508 meters tall and was finished in 2003, although Chinese developers have said Shanghais World Financial Center will be taller when completed in 2007.“Tower-running” races

40、Switzerland, which has 11,674 steps.At event for the longdistance stairway runners also takes place in Radebeul, Germany, where competitors run up 397 stairs 100 times to equal the height of Mt everest.49According to the passage, we can infer that there were contestants in all to take part in the ra

43、than 508 meters tallDwill have 11,674 steps in total52Why didnt Ms Mayr get the $30,000 prize?ABecause she didnt complete the whole raceBBecause she got the second place in the raceCBecause she didnt complete the race in under 12 minutes.DBecause she took part in the race for the first time53Whats m

44、ain idea of this passage? ARaces up the stairs of the tallest buildings and structures across the world BPaul Crake won a race up the stair of the worlds building Taipei 101CThe tallest building of the world will be built in ShanghaiDRunners raced up the longest stairs in the world.DThere are severa

45、l explanations for why the circle is divided into 360 parts. Probably the best explanation is connected with the Babylonians.Many, many centuries ago, large distances were measured in the Babylonians mile. The Babylonians mile equaled about seven of our miles. Because of its length, the time needed

46、to travel the Babylonians mile became a measure of time. One day was said to be twelve Babylonians time-miles.About one thousand years before Christ, the Babylonians began keeping records of star movements. They needed a way to record how much time passed between the moment they first saw a star and

47、 then observed it again. They used Babylonians time-miles as their measure of timeIn order to have small units of time, the Babylonians divided each time-mile into thirty parts. The Babylonians believed that each trip around the sky was a circle. One complete trip around the sky, they reasoned, took

48、 one day.You already know that one day was the same as twelve Babylonians time-miles. Since each time-mile was divided into thirty parts, the circular trip around the sky was 1230, or 360 parts long. That is how there came to be 360 degrees in a circle.54The purpose of this passage is to explain .Ah

49、ow the Babylonians measured the time of star movements.Bwhy the circle is divided into 360 parts Cthe Babylonian mile and the Babylonian time-mileDthe Babylonians ideas about the sky55For what was the Babylonians time divided into thirty parts?ATo make a day into 360 partsBTo make a circle into 360

50、partsCTo measure more exact distancesDTo measure more exact time56We conclude that one Babylonian time-mile equals Atwo hours Babout seven miles Cone day Dtwelve degreesEAre you single and dreaming of an exciting voyage vacation, but unsure of the next step?
