　　Hey! It's going to be Mother's day again. Have you planned something good for your Mama? If not, try even one of these tips.

　　Make Your Mama Proud

　　What special talents do you have? Maybe this is the right time to show it to her. She would be very proud and surprised if she'd realized that you have something that she doesn't expect.

　　What's Her Favorite?

　　Most teens don't know what their mama's favorite. You do? Then, what are you waiting for ? Buy her some of her favorite stuff and put a little twist on it. Make it more special.

　　The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up she'll be surprised to see it. And, maybe, a little tear may fall down from her cheeks.

　　The Memories

　　Our mothers have special memories in mind. Those are the times that they gave birth to their healthy baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Maybe you can tell her about the time she got mad at you because you did something that you thought is right but since that day forward you realized your mistakes. Or, you can tell her how happy you are when she was there during your painful days in your life.

　　Be Her

　　What does she look like if she is so exhausted and angry and tired? What does she do for your family? This is the right time to show her the things that she usually does at home. Try to imitate her voice when she is angry. Make your face as if you are her when she is mad.

　　Treat a Queen

　　Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off by being a servant to her.

　　Make-Over Beauty

　　Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, especially in the family, she doesn't look great any more. Admit it! Most mothers are not into trends anymore because their focusing on us.

　　Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look GLAMOROUS!

　　Have Some of Your Time

　　It's the cheapest but a meaningful way. Most of us are busy from our work, friends, boy/girl friends, school. We stay home late and after several hours, we go out again.

　　Have you ever had a meaningful time with your mother where you don't think or talk about problems and arguments? Have you ever told her how much you thank her from the life she gave to you, the time she took care of you, and for every suffering she'd felt for you? Have you ever told her that you love her?

　　Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow nor today. Those three words can make her heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her “I love you!” and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?

　　In a surprising discovery about where higher life can survive, scientists have found a shrimp —— like creature and a jellyfish swimming beneath an Antarctic ice sheet.

　　About 180 meters below the ice where no light can get through, scientists had thought nothing much more than a few microbes (微生物) could exist.

　　That’s why a NASA team was surprised when they lowered a video camera to get the first long look at the underbelly of an ice sheet in Antarctica. A curious shrimp – like creature came swimming by and then parked itself on the camera’s cable. Scientists also pulled up a tentacle (觸須) they believe came from a jellyfish.

　　“We were operating on the presumption that nothing’s there.” Said NASA ice scientist Robert Bindschadler. “It was a shrimp you’d enjoy having on your plate.”

　　“We were just gaga (狂熱的) over it,” he said of the 7.5cm long, orange creature starring in their two – minute video. Technically, it’s not a shrimp. It’s a Lyssianasid amphipod, which is distantly related to the shrimp.

　　The video is likely to inspire experts to rethink what they know about life in harsh environments. And it has scientists thinking that if shrimp – like creatures can live below 180 meters of Antarctic ice in freezing dark water, what about other cold places? What about Europa, a frozen moon of Jupiter?

　　Cynan Ellis – Evans, a scientist of the British Antarctic Survey called the finding fascinating. He said it was possible the creatures swam in from far away and don’t live there permanently.

　　But Kim, who is a co-author of the study, doubts it. “The site in West Antarctica is at least 19 km from open seas. Bindschadler drilled a 20 cm – wide hole and was looking at a tiny amount of water. That means it’s unlikely that two creatures swam from great distances and were captured randomly in that small of an area,” she said.

　　Yet scientist were puzzled at what the food source would be for these creatures. While some microbes can make their own food out of chemicals in the ocean, complex life like the shrimp can’t, Kim said.

　　“So how do they survive? That’s the key question.” Kim Sai.

　　“It’s pretty amazing when you find a huge puzzle like that on a planet where we thought we know everything.” Kim said.

　　59. What does the underlined word “harsh” probably mean?

　　A. cold B. loud C. cruel D. ugly

　　60. According to Kim, the shrimp – like creature .

　　A. swam great distances to Antarctic B. has always lived in the region

　　C. gradually evolved from shrimps D. has nothing in common with shrimps

　　61. The finding is significant in that .

　　A. it marks NASA’S first Antarctic biological study

　　B. it proves there is marine life in the Antarctic

　　C. it could inspire further study of life in harsh environments

　　D. it shows that Lyssianasid amphipod is closely related to shrimps

　　62. Which of the following statements about the discovery is FALSE?

　　A. Complex life usually lives on other forms of life.

　　B. Scientists saw two creatures in the two – minute video.

　　C. It is possible for creatures to live 180 meters below the ice though there is no light.

　　D. Scientists captured the shrimp – like creature in a camera by drilling a hole through the ice.

　　Beijing — Premier Wen Jiabao has urged the leadership of all countries to deepen their political will in dealing with climate change woes (災(zāi)難) as uncertainties mount (增長) in the months before the United Nation’s conference in Cancun, Mexico, at the end of this year.

　　Wen made the remarks on Friday when he met with nearly 20 politicians, climate change and environmental ministers worldwide, who are in Beijing this weekend to attend an international forum on green economy and climate change.

　　Based on the achievements made at the Copenhagen Summit last December, Wen urged the rich countries to further make clear their compulsory carbon reduction targets. “At the same time, we developing countries should make clear our voluntary goal of slowing down climate change,” Wen said.

　　Wen also urged the developed countries to transfer(轉(zhuǎn)讓)climate change friendly technologies to the developing countries, especially the poorest countries and island nations.

　　During the meeting, Wen said China will redouble its efforts in reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency during the coming years after it finishes its 2006-2010 goal of cutting energy consumption per unit of economic output by 20 percent.

　　While praising China for its green efforts, former Australian Prime Minister Robert J. Lee Hawke asked China to share its experiences and lessons on energy savings and pollution reduction to the rest of the world to deal with global environmental woes and climate change.

　　Wen responded: “China, together with the rest of the world, is willing to make its due contribution in coping with global warming and climate change.”

　　At a banquet for the foreign guests on Friday night, former vice-premier Zeng Peiyan said “Increasing uncertainties are ahead for the climate change negotiations. The world needs more dialogue and cooperation”.

　　“Climate change woes are our shared challenges but the root lies in the historical emissions by the developed countries,” said Zeng, as president of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, which organized the weekend climate change summit.

　　Zeng expected the forum to work as a platform for different countries to communicate their positions freely before the Bonn climate change negotiation in June and the Cancun conference at the end of this year.

　　63. Which title suits this passage best?

　　A. We must work on climate change.

　　B. We should share our ‘green’ technology.

　　C. We need to clarify our action targets.

　　D. We ought to cooperate to control the climate.

　　64. The underlined part in the last paragraph but one implies ________.

　　A. Air pollution just existed in the developed countries in the past.

　　B. In the past, the developed countries slowed down the development of the world.

　　C. Climate change woes were originally caused by the developed countries.

　　D. The rich countries should be more responsible since they polluted most.

　　65. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.

　　A. The Chinese government intends to be regarded as a developed country.

　　B. The whole world has got the same opinion about the measures to take.

　　C. The developed countries have not found any effective ways to cut their emissions.

　　D. There is still a long way to go before an agreement can be reached.

　　66. Why did Wen Jiabao urge the developed countries to clarify their carbon reduction targets?

　　A. Because the developed countries are not willing to deal with global environmental woes.

　　B. Because the developing countries have not set any goal of slowing down climate change.

　　C. Because there are mounting uncertainties ahead for the climate change negotiations.

　　D. Because agreements were already made at the Copenhagen Summit last December.

　　D

　　It is love that makes the world go round. And it is also love that has such power to overcome all difficulties. So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.

　　One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew with each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I remarked, in passing. The, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will to ward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’” “Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “He’ll understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.

　　From that day on, I became smile – conscious, and I practice the diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. When I got excited in traffic, taking the right – of – way (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, I’d smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a good – natured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! – he’d get a broad smile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometimes amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would completely turn aside ill – feeling and tension. I’m wondering now how many tragic add dents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!

　　67. The author got angry while shopping one day because .

　　A. of the clerk’s unfriendliness and lack of concern

　　B. of her misfortune

　　C. she failed to purchase what she intended

　　D. a dark – complexion young man laughed at her

　　A. was well – educated but unwilling to help others

　　B. was able to speak English

　　C. knew some English and was ready to help others

　　D. was familiar with the young man

　　69. In the author’s opinion, if all people remembered to smile when driving, .

　　A. many traffic accidents could be avoided

　　B. they would receive a good natural smile in return

　　C. they could get a broad smile of understanding

　　D. they wouldn’t feel any tension

　　70. The best title for this passage could be .

　　A. The Art of Smiling B. The Universal Language

　　C. The Power of Love D. The Magic Power of Friendship

　　In a memory – based competition between you and a chimp (猩猩); who do you think would win? If you put yourself on top, you might want to guess again.

　　In a test that challenged participants to remember numbers, a young chimp performed better than Japanese college students.

　　Here's how the test worked. At Kyoto University in Japan, human students and chimpanzee participants sat in front of a computer. Five numbers, ranging from 1 to 9, were combined with one another and then, they appeared at random places on the screen.

　　The numbers stayed on the screen for less than a second. In the first test, for example, participants saw the numbers for 650 milliseconds (about two- thirds of a second).

　　Then, each number disappeared and they saw a white square instead. Participants had to touch the squares in numerical order, based on the numbers that had been there a moment before.

　　In this test, the students touched the boxes in the correct order about 80 percent of the time. A young chimp named Ayumu performed equally well.

　　During a harder test, participants were only able to see the numbers for 210 milliseconds.

　　This time, students only succeeded in putting the boxes in the correct order about 40 percent of the time. But Ayumu still could select the boxes in the right order nearly 80 percent of the time.

　　Some people have what's called a "photographic memory", which allows them to remember a surprising number of details after just a quick look at something. Ayumu's memory might work in a similar way, says lead researcher Tetsuro Matsuzawa.

　　The chimp's young age might have something to do with his impressive performance, too. In previous tests, the Japanese researchers found that young chimps performed better than their mothers.

　　The scientists are interested to see whether Ayumu loses his strong memory as he arrows older. They already know that young children sometimes have sharp memories when offered something photographical, but they lose this ability over time.

　　Topic A memory-based competition between human beings and chimps

　　(71) _______ To judge whose memory is better

　　The (72)

　　of the first test ◆A chimp and some Japanese students participated in the (73) _____ and sat before a computer.

　　There is an endless supply of stories about sleepwalkers (夢(mèng)游者). People have been said to climb on roofs, solve mathematical problems, write music, walk through windows, and do murder in their sleep.

　　In Revere, Massachusetts, a hundred policemen searched for a lost boy who left his home in his sleep and woke up five hours later on a strange sofa in a strange living room, with no idea how he had got there.

　　At the University of Lowa, a student was reported to have the habit of getting up in the middle of the night and walking three-quarters of a mile to the Lowa River. He would take a swim and then go back to his room to bed.

　　An American expert on sleep claims (聲稱) that he has never seen a sleepwalker. He is said to know more about sleep than any other living man, and during the last thirty-five years he has lost a lot of sleep watching people sleep. He says, “Of course, I know that there are sleepwalkers because I have read about them in the newspapers. But none of my sleepers ever walked, and if I were to advertise for sleepwalkers for an experiment, I doubt whether I would get many takers (應(yīng)征者).”

　　Sleepwalking, however, is a scientific reality. It is one of those strange things that sometimes look quite fantastic (怪誕的). Doctors say that sleepwalking is much more common than is generally supposed. Many sleepwalkers do not try to find help and their sleepwalking is never recorded.

　　61. Generally speaking, sleepwalkers are people who ________.

　　A. climb on roofs B. walk through windows

　　C. do fantastic things during their sleep D. walk in a half-awake state

　　62. It was reported that a boy ________.

　　A. was found on a strange sofa, telling how he had got there

　　B. slept in his own room but woke up in a strange room

　　C. lost his way five hours after he left home

　　D. was searched for by policemen when he lost his way

　　63. There was a college student who got into the habit of ________.

　　A. getting up in the middle of the night and walking down to the river

　　B. walking three-quarters of a mile every day

　　C. swimming in the Lowa River before going to bed

　　D. walking about before he went to bed

　　64. Why do people think sleepwalking is nothing but a fantastic thing which doesn’t have any explanation?

　　A. It is so common that it needn’t be recorded.

　　B. Scientists take no interest in it.

　　C. Most sleepwalkers do not seek help for their problem.

　　D. No records about it have been made.

　　B

　　In Britain today, is it possible to tell a person’s class just by looking at him? Physical details alone tell us about health, diet and the type of work a person does. A hundred years ago the working class often looked unhealthy, small and they were either too thin or too fat. The upper classes were often tall, sporting types who were used to a good diet and looked healthy. Today living and working conditions have improved, and such descriptions are no longer true. People are taller now than a hundred years ago. Everyone in Britain today is able to have free medicine, a good diet, acceptable working conditions and enough rest and leisure.

　　The clothes people choose to wear, however, do provide information about their backgrounds. Expensive clothes look expensive and show their wearer is rich. Clothes can provide other clues as well. The upper classes appear to be less interested in fashion and wear good quality clothes in non-bright colours, made of natural material like wool, leather and cotton. Lower working-class people often choose clothes in bright colours, made of man-made materials. A sociological explanation for this would be that colour and interest are missing from their lives, and therefore any opportunity to produce this is taken.

　　Clothes are available at a price within most people’s reach. New clothes make the wearer feel good and show some degree of wealth to the outside world. Today it is the younger people who spend most money on clothes. Fashion is no longer for the upper classes and the rich. Young people from all social classes spend a lot of money on clothes. Some new fashions are started by working-class people who want to look different and feel important. They want people to look at them.

　　65. In the past, a person’s appearance could not tell other people about his ________.

　　A. health B. diet C. occupation (職業(yè)) D. habits

　　66. The clothes people choose to wear tell us about their ________.

　　A. education B. richness C. backgrounds D. hobby

　　67. A working-class person may start a new fashion because ________.

　　A. she wants to draw the attention of other people

　　B. she wants to look different and healthy

　　C. she wants to show their wealth

　　D. she wants to show their taste

　　68. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

　　A. Expensive clothes look expensive and show the wearer is rich.

　　B. Working-class people prefer clothes in bright colours because they lack colour in their lives.

　　C. Today, it is still the upper class people who spend most money on clothes.

　　D. Today, fashion is no longer for the upper classes and the rich.
