In the 1930s, a lot of people in the USA were out of work. Among these people was a man named Alfred Butts. He always had an interest in word games and so, to fill his time, he planned a game which he called ‘Lexico’. However, he was not completely satisfied with the game, so he made a number of changes to it and, in time, changed its name from ‘Lexico’ to ‘Alph’ and then to ‘Criss Cross’. He wanted to make some money from his new game but he didn't have any real commercial success. In 1939, Butts happened to meet a man called Jim Brunot who showed an interest in the new game. The two men worked together on developing the game and in 1948 it was offered for sale in the United States under its new name — ‘Scrabble’. At first, it didn't sell very well. In the first year it sold just 2,250 sets and by 1951 it had only reached 8,500 sets a year. Then, in 1952 the manager of Macy's department store in New York, Jack Strauss, happened to play ‘Scrabble’ while he was on holiday. He thought it was a wonderful game and, when he went back to work after his holiday, he insisted that Macy's should stock（储备）the game and make an effort to call the public's attention to it. As a result, ‘scrabble’ became a big success in the United States and it soon spread to Australia and then to other English-speaking countries. 1.The text is mainly about . A. ‘Lexico’ B. three men C. a word game D. Alfred Butts 2.Alfred Butts invented the game ‘Lexico’ . A. to make himself famous B. to make spelling simpler C. when he was out of work and looking for a job D. when he was playing word games to pass the time 3. Who made ‘Scrabble’ popular? A. Alfred Butts. B. Jack Strauss. C. Alfred Butts and Jim Brunot. D. Jack Strauss and Jim Brunot. 4.When did Alfred Butts first put his game on the market? A. In 1939. B. In 1948. C. Before 1939. D. Between 1939 and 1948.

Photographs are everywhere. They decorate the walls of homes and are used in stores for sales of different goods. The news is filled with pictures of fires, floods, and special events. Photos record the beauties of nature. They can also bring things close that are far away. Through photos, people can see wild animals, cities in foreign lands, and even the stars in outer space. Photos also tell stories. Reporting the news through photos is called photojournalism. At times photojournalists tell their stories through a single picture. At other times, they use a group of pictures to tell a story. Each picture is like a chapter in a book, which can do more than record the facts. It can also be a strong force for social change. Jacob Riis was among the first photojournalists. He took pictures of parts of New York City where the poor lived. Riis believed that poverty caused crime, and he used photos to help him prove his point. A few years later, the photos of small children working in factories by Lewis Hine shocked the public. Hine’s pictures helped bring about laws to protect such children. Hundreds of pictures may have to be taken in order to get one or two really good photos. It takes science to have the photo come out clearly and art to make a photo that has a good design and expresses feeling. Photojournalists make an actual record of what they see. A photo, however, can be both a work of art and an actual record. It can record an important event as a beautiful or exciting picture. As historical and artistic documents(文献), photos can become more important over time. Today photojournalists still have their pictures appear in newspapers and magazines. They also publish them in books and on the Internet. 1.The underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refers to . A. beauties B. photos C. goods D. events 2.The photos of the small children by Hine show us that photos . A. are also works of art B. are popular ways of reporting news C. often shock the public D. can serve as a force for social change 3.What can we learn from the passage? A. News with pictures is encouraging. B. Photos help people improve their life. C. News photos mean history in a sense. D. People prefer reading news with pictures. 4.The text is mainly about . A. telling the story through picture B. decorating the walls of homes C. publishing historical papers D. expressing feeling through pictures

The Americans believe that anybody can become President of the United States. In a recent Hollywood comedy(喜剧), that is exactly what happens. Dave Kovic, played by Kevin Kline, is a kind-hearted man who runs a business that finds people jobs. He leads a typical(典型的) American way of life, except for one thing－he looks exactly like the President, Bill Mitchell. In fact, the only thing that makes him different from the nation’s leader is that he is very nice! The president has started using look-alikes during some public appearances. Dave is offered a chance to “serve his country” by becoming one. However, things go wrong. The President becomes very ill and Dave ends up acting as the President forever. Director Ivan Reitman, who made the popular and successful comedies like Twins, Ghostbusters and Legal Eagles, could have gone for easy laughs by making fun of the American government. Instead, Dave is an attractive comedy about an ordinary man in extraordinary situations. Kevin Kline gives a double performance as Dave and the President, and Sigourney Weaver is at her best as his First Lady. The love story that develops between her role and Dave is a real classic(经典). The film is 100% American. However, if you’ve ever felt that anybody could do a better job running the country than the people in power, then you’ll enjoy Dave! 1.What is the purpose of the text? A. To tell the reader about the American government. B. To discus the Americans’ ideas about the President. C. To make a comparison between Dave and other films. D. To introduce a new film to the reader. 2.Who plays the role of the President in the film? A. Sigourney Weaver. B. Kevin Kline. C. Bill Mitchell. D. Ivan Reitman. 3.The underlined word “one” in the 3rd paragraph refers to _____. A. the President B. the director C. an actor D. a look-alike 4.Which of the following is best supported by the text? A. The author makes fun of the President. B. The author thinks highly of the film. C. The author is a fan of Hollywood comedies. D. The author wishes to become the American President.

At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents (文件) because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper. It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. "I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down," says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization. Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers. Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. " I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling (回收利用) " said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste. 1. The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to ________. A. the rapid development of small businesses B. the opening up of new markets C. the printing of high quality copies D. the increased use of the Internet 2.Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is ________. A. to encourage printing more quality documents B. to develop new printers using recycled paper C. to find new materials for making paper D. to plant more fast-growing trees 3.Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because _______. A. people are concerned about the environment B. printers in many offices are working overtime C. small companies need more hard copies D. they see a growing market for printers

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives.It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. 1. First,employers should take the responsibility for their employees. 2. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees,it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs. 3. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement.This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years.This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor. In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly.This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions.Furthermore,some institution should be created for senior citizens,which can help provide a comfortable life for them. 4. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly,particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young. One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent. 5.Therefore,it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations. A. Every coin has two sides B. To sum up,all these options have advantages and disadvantages. C. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem. D. It’s unfair to let the government to share all the responsibilities. E. To make this possible,a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. F. Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. G. Unfortunately,as the present situation in our country shows,this is not a truly practical answer.
