　　A lady has a problem with her daughter
　　My nine-year-old daughter, Maria, is in Year Four. Every evening we get into homework battles (争执). Three afternoons a week, she has activities (net-ball, singing) after school and by the time we get home, homework is the last thing she feels like doing. The other two days, she gets home early and we argue (争论) about whether she should do her homework right after school, or if she should have some time to rest and play first. When Maria at last sits down to do her homework, she seems to want me there helping all the time. I do want to help her, but I'm sure that she is going to need to be able to do it on her own. And in fact, most of the time, I have other things I need to be doing. It seems that children these days have much more homework than we did, and some of it is really beyond (超越) their abilities (能力). As you can see, I'm really worried about homework and I really don’t know what I should do. Any ideas?

　　For several years, Americans have enjoyed tele-shopping watching TV and buying things by phone. Now tele-shopping is starting in Europe(欧洲). In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.
　　Tele-shopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example. The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made ＄100 million. In France there are two tele-shopping channels, and the French spend about ＄20 million a year to buy things through those channels.
　　In Germany, until last year tele-shopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed (允许) more tele-pshopping. Other channels can open for tele-business, including(包括) the largest American tele-shopping company and a 24－hour tele-shopping company. German businesses are hoping this new tele-shopping will help them sell more things.
　　Some people like tele-shopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call tele-shopping “junk (垃圾)on the air”. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (质量) of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
　　The need for high quality means that European tele-shopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.

41. Tele-shopping is _____in Europe.

　A. not popular B. growing 　C. not possible D. cheap

42. People like tele-shopping because it is _____.

　A. American B. cheaper 　C. easier D. more popular

43. Some Europeans don't like tele-shopping because they _____ .

　A. don't like to buy things 　B. don't watch TV

　C. believe the things sold on TV are expensive 　D. think the things sold on TV are bad quality

44. In Germany, tele-shopping may _____ .

　A. help businessmen get more money

　B. keep the shops open longer 　C. have fewer buyers 　D. bring better TV programs

45. The best title of this passage is _____ .

　A. American Tele-shopping 　B. Tele-shopping Companies

　C. Tele-shopping in Europe 　D. Tele-shopping — Junk on the Air

A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office a street urchin(顽童) was walking around a shining car.“Is this your car, Paul?”he asked.

Paul answered,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything. Boy. I wish…”He hesitated(犹豫).

Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.

“I wish,”the boy went on,“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again,“Would you like to take a ride in my car?”

“Oh, yes, I'd love that.”

After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said:“Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”

Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again,“Will you stop where those two steps are?”the boy asked.

He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残疾) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.

“There she is. Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it...then you can see for yourself all nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about.”

(5)The best name of the story is ______.

A. A Christmas Present B. A Street Urchin C. A Brother Like That D. An Unforgettable Holiday Ride

解析 (1)本题考查细节理解，依据本文第二段：Paul answered,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.故答案选B。(2)本题考查学生的推理判断能力，依据倒数第二段和第三段的内容，尤其是顽童对他弟弟所说的话：“And some day I'm going to give you one just like it...”故选A。(3)本题考查学生的深层理解。Paul的种种猜想会对正确选择产生干扰。依据是本文倒数第二段的最后一句话：“Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about.”故选D。(4)本题考查归纳文章中心。从顽童的言行之中可以看出他对残疾弟弟有深深的爱。如：“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything.”“He was carrying his little crippled brother.”故选B。(5)本题考查概括全文主旨的能力。本文叙述了两对兄弟的关爱之情。Paul的哥哥送给他一辆小汽车作为圣诞礼物，顽童虽然没有Paul哥哥那样的经济条件，但他有着一份对残疾弟弟的深深的爱。所以A Brother Like That为最佳题目。

The giraffe is the tallest modern land animal. It can be over 5.5 metres tall. Its neck alone may be 1.9metres long. Yet the giraffe has only seven bones in its neck, the same number as in the human.

A female giraffe gives birth to one baby at a time. The baby, called a calf, is about 1.9 metres tall at birth. By the age of eight it is full-grown. The giraffe eats mostly leaves.

A Japanese toy maker says that they’ve developed a gadget（小器具）that translates dog barks （吠）into human languages and plan to begin selling the gadgets—under the name of Bowlingual—in the US pet stores and present shops this summer.

People laughed when the Japanese toy maker Takara company made the world’s first dog-human translation machine last year .But about 300,000 of them have been sold since it was on sale in Japan last year .Far bigger sales will be expected once an English language translation machine for dogs comes to America in August .The United States is home to about 67 million dogs ,more than six times the number in Japan.

“We know that the Americans love their dogs so much ,so we don’t think they’ll mind spending $ 120 on this gadget”, the Takara marketing manager said before the journalists at a meeting in Atlanta. Bowlingual ,one of US Time magazine’s coolest inventions of 2002, has two parts .A microphone is tied to the dog’s collar（项圈）and sends out sound information to the gadget held by the owner .Then the translation is done in the gadget by a database （数据库）with every kind of barks .Those barks show six feelings—happiness, sadness ,disappointment ,anger ,

declaration and desire .Each of the feelings is then translated into words like “Let’s play.” “Look at me !” or “Spend more time with me.”

Takara says it has spent millions of dollars developing the gadget .One thing that seems certain is that the markets for animal translation machines will probably be a dog’s world since Takara has no plans to develop such a gadget for cats . “They are too unpredictable （反复无常） ,”the marketing manager said.

67．The first three paragraphs of the passage mainly tell us that Bowlingual .

A．was invented in Japan B．has developed quickly

C．will be sold in America D．sells well for its price

68．The underlined word “they” in the last sentence refers to .

A．markets B．dogs C．plans D．cats

69．When was this passage most probably written?

A．In the winter of 2002. B．In the spring of 2003.

C．In the summer of 2002. D．In the autumn of 2003.

70．From the passage ,we can see that Takara is the sale of its new gadget in the US.

A．proud of B．pleased with C．confident of D．worried about

67.C 68.D 69.B 70.C
