Even people who spent ju

28、st a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently, the two-year study showed. And it wasnt that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feeli

29、ngs. Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely contrary to their expectations. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others. The fact that Internet use reduces t

30、ime available for family and friends may account for the drop in well-being, researchers assumed. Faceless, bodiless virtual communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure t

31、o the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives. But its important to remember this is not about the technology itself; its about how it is used. says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the studys sponsors. It really points to the need for considering social fact

32、ors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.56. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. When people feel unhappy, they tend to surf the internet more often.B. The more you log on the Internet, the worse you will feel.C. Internet use will do harm to your

33、 health as well as psychology.D. The results of the two-year study were quite natural to the researchers.57. What does the author say about television in the passage?A. It can also cause bad feelings.B. It is healthier than the internet.C. It provides viewers with chances to choose information.D. It

34、 doesnt allow users to communicate with others. 58. How many possible reasons has the author given for the problem?A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.59. Which of the following is true about technology according to Christine Riley? A. It has both advantages and disadvantages. B. Social factors should

35、 be taken into consideration when it is used. C. It can provide good services no matter how its used. D. It will do harm to human beings, so we mustnt apply it.BOn Thursday September 6, 2007, the world lost an amazing musician and person. The great tenor(男高音歌手)Luciano Pavarotti lost the battle with

36、cancer and died at 5 a.m. in Italy. This great loss cannot go unnoticed and shouldnt. Pavarotti was an incredible individual who did more than contribute some of the greatest tenor opera existing today; he tried and succeeded in making a difference in the world. Instead of looking at his death with

37、sorrow, we should look at his death as an inspiration. Reviewing at all of the contributions this man made with his life, we should try to contribute something great to the world we live in. Each person has a talent, and some, like Pavarotti, use their talents to create a better place for everyone.

38、Many times, some young people feel as though they are lost, asking the same questions and getting no answers: What is my purpose in life? What am I meant to do? Of course we should take time to respectfully think about Pavarotti, but we shouldnt dwell on sorrow because his death is something we cant

39、 change. What we all can do to honor this great man is to commit to making a difference and contributing something to the world.Even though not everyone is a musician, each person can learn something from Pavarottis life. The first lesson is that you do not have to become what you originally planned

40、 to be. Pavarotti was one of the greatest tenors of all time, but he did not start that way. Many people feel they are stuck on the path theyve chosen. This is not the case! Pavarotti taught elementary school for two years and was an insurance salesman while pursuing his interest. For six years, Pav

41、arotti sang for nothing more than just a hobby until he won an international prize. Just four years later he made his American debut (首次演出) in Miami and three years later was in New York. He made 379 performances and retired from stage opera in 2004, but continued to tour until his cancer diagnosis(

42、诊断) in 2006. 60. What does the author mean by saying “we should look at his death as an inspiration” in the first paragraph?A. We should be inspired by his death.B. We should be inspired to win the battle with cancer.C. We should be inspired to devote ourselves to becoming a musician.D. We should be

43、 inspired to learn from his experience and life.61. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “dwell on ”?A. live in a certain placeB. think a lot about somethingC. fix ones attention on somethingD. look at something carefully62. What will the writer probably talk about in the 4th par

44、agraph?A. To describe the excellence of his performances.B. To inform readers of his cancer diagnosis.C. To tell readers other lessons we can learn from Pavarotti.D. To introduce his successful life as a tenor.63. In which section of a newspaper does the passage appear? A. EntertainmentB. Cover News

45、C. MedicineD. LiteratureCYOU may complain that there are too many tests on the way to next years college entrance examination, but an increasing number of students want to take one more. That is the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT, an American test for students who intend to apply for college admis

46、sion.Chen Huanlu, 18 from Shandong Province took part in the SAT subject tests (SAT 2) in Hong Kong on June 2. She has also been scheduled to take the SAT reasoning test (SAT 1) in October.I hope to study environmental engineering at an American university, where I may have more opportunities to get

47、 cutting-edge (前沿的) knowledge in this area, said Chen, who is interested in environmental issues. However, not all SAT test takers want to apply for American universities. Some simply regard the SAT as a challenge. I wanted to see how I would do when faced up with plenty of stress and also to evalua

48、te my scholastic (学业的) level by an American standard. The SATs made my school life more diverse, said Senior 2 student Zhou Yuxiang from Sichuan Province.The 17-year-old boy, a top student in his school, was inspired by some of his friends. They have taken this test and been admitted to American uni

49、versities, including Harvard and Yale. Last winter vacation he took a 20-day SAT course at Chengdu New Oriental School.As I prepared for the test in the following months, I was forced to balance my everyday schedule better. Fortunately I was optimistic enough to have undergone (经历) the most difficul

50、t time, he said. In May and June, Zhou flew alone to Hong Kong to sit for the SAT1 and SAT2.The reading section is a bit tough, but the math is a piece of cake for us Chinese, he said. Zhou also discovered that the two tests have a lot in common. They are both the standards set for us to reach. What

51、 we should do more sensibly is to try harder to prepare for them. Survival of the fittest (适者生存) is true both in America and China. That is something I have learnt beyond the SAT itself, he said.64. Which statement is true about SAT according to the passage? A. Its a preparation for next years colle

52、ge entrance examination.B. The SAT test is only held in Hong Kong.C. It includes subject tests and reasoning tests. D. Its a piece of cake for the Chinese students.65. Why did Zhou Yuxiang in Sichuan take part in the SAT test? A. He wanted to enter Harvard or Yale. B. His friends encouraged him to d

53、o that. C. He wanted to challenge himself. D. He wanted to prove that survival of the fittest is true both in America and China.66. It can be inferred that _. A. A growing number of Chinese students have lost interest in Chinas college entrance examination. B. The only way for the Chinese students t

54、o be admitted to an American college is to pass SAT. C. Chen Huanlu , a student from Shandong, has got high marks in SAT. D. By taking the test, you can learn something more than knowledge.DIve cheated in school when I thought that I could get away with it. Im not proud of it and I dont usually feel

55、 very good about myself afterward, but sometimes its the only way possible to survive in a pressure cooker. My parents are really set on my getting good grades. They study my report card the same way they examine the newspapers stock market page. And they make me feel that Ive got to live up to thei

56、r expectations. But often its like each teacher acts as if his is the only subject we have. They think nothing of piling on our homework or giving surprise quizzes. Sometimes we have to take two or three tests in different subjects on the same day. Id like to see a lot of adults I know preparing for

57、 that. When the pressure becomes too high, some kids may resort to(诉诸于) cheating. If you have three or four subjects to study for, youre not going to be able to devote enough time to each subject in order to be well prepared for each class. Besides, it may be the only way left to live up to your par

58、ents expectations and compete with the top students in the class. Everybody knows that if you cheat, its important not to get caught. Few things can cause more of chaos. Once, my elder brother got caught cheating on a math final. My parents acted as though hed committed a federal crime. The assistan

59、t principal called them to school, but although the incident caused several conferences, I dont think that anybody ever really understood what my brother was going through. Were just supposed to perform outstandingly as well as always act honestly, but how many adults can actually live up to the sta

60、ndards they set for us? My father has gotten countless traffic tickets for parking in no parking zones or for not coming to a full stop at stop signs. And youre always hearing about people who dont file their income tax honestly. How about all the corruption in government? Successful adults often ac

61、cept dishonesty in order to achieve their business goals. Are kids the only ones who are supposed to be perfect? Most of my friends have cheated on tests in school at one time or another. The kids who never cheat are usually either afraid of getting caught or just dont know how to do it safely. Nobo

62、dy wants to cheat. But if its a choice of being honest or of getting a grade, most kids will try for the A. That may sound wrong, but we didnt make the rules, were just trying to get by.67.

69、rated（迁移）across continents in search of food, shelter, safety, and comfortable weather. People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation. Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each

70、year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They

71、are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else. There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Po

72、pulation Surveys (CPS): Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital（婚姻的） status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new a

In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nations 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. Thats why many American people say, “Big Citie
