Drunken driving sometimes called American's socially accepted form of murder has become a national epidemic(流行病).Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years.A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0.10-blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses of wines or shots of whisky drunk within two hours.Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, that public opinion is no longer tolerant. Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend (逆转潮流) in the 1960s to reduce it to 18.After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21. Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop "responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink. Some states are punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks.A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was "obviously drunk" and later drove off the land, killing a nine-year-old boy. As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition (禁令) of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the "noble experiment".They forget that legal prohibition didn't stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption (腐败) and organized crime.As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution. 1.It can be inferred from the passage that drunken driving has become a major problem in the United States because___. A.most Americans like drinking B.heavy dinking is hard to avoid C.Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents D.many Americans are killed by traffic accidents 2.What can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey? A.Drivers should not be allowed to drink. B.Young drivers were usually bad. C.The legal drinking age should be raised. D.Some drivers didn't reach the legal drinking age. 3.The underlined word "lenient" in the first paragraph means___. A.cruel B.serious C.determined D.merciful[来源:Z§4.Which of the following best shows the writer's opinion of drunken driving? A.It may cause organized crime. B.The new laws can stop heavy drinking. C.There should be no bars to serve drinks. D.It is difficult to solve the problem.

Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually lasts only a few minutes or a few hours.This kind of loneliness is not serious.In fact, it is quite normal.For some people, though, loneliness can last for years.Now researchers say there are three different kinds of loneliness. The first kind of loneliness is temporary.This is the most common type.It usually disappears quickly and does not need any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a certain situation, for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place.Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. The third kind of loneliness is the most severe.Unlike the second type, chronic (长期的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause.People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and being close to others.Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition. Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person's social contacts, such as friends, family members, co-workers, etc.We depend on various people for different reasons.For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share interests and activities.However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more.They question then" own popularity. Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease.While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal and healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad and sometimes dangerous condition. 1.Which of the following can be the cause of situational loneliness? A.Sleeplessness. B.Changing work. C.Heart disease. D.Social contacts. 2.The underlined word "it" in the last sentence of the third paragraph refers to _____ . A.headaches B.situational loneliness C.sleeplessness D.temporary loneliness 3.How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage? A.Just ignore it. B.Talk to friends. C.Go to see a doctor. D.Ask your teachers for guidance. 4.What can we learn from the passage? A.People feel lonely in a certain situation. B.There are only three types of loneliness in our life. C.Loneliness doesn't affect people much. D.Scientists have found ways to help habitually lonely people.

Preparing for the Next Job Market The latest spike in the unemployment rate is being felt across the board ?in 98 percent of metropolitan areas, in high-wage and low-wage jobs, among young and old, women and men, but especially men. This landscape means that young Americans who are trying to plan their futures right now have some hard choices.Do they go to college and take on debt without hope of getting a job? And what about high school students? Do they have any chance of securing a job without a college degree? Perhaps the education system needs to react to this rapidly moving economic crisis. In our current economic collapse, the connection between education and employment could not be more different than it was during the Depression.Education must now hold center stage, not because of an enemy abroad but because of the global economy.The jobs of the future will demand levels of education, particularly skills in mathematics, technology and science, which exceed those now taught in high school. A healthy society should strive for full employment.In our times, that goal cannot be realized, or even approximated by creating jobs for the unskilled.The long-term prospect for economic recovery depends on the extent to which we improve our educational system.And this is where America is now at its weakest. C.We should limit access to four-year colleges. D.We ought to recruit more private school teachers and train them better. 3.What does the word "collapse" in the third paragraph mean? A.success B.failure C. development D.booming 4.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A.Young Americans planning their futures have difficult choices. B.Education must hold center stage due to the global economy. C.The best university system benefits a majority. D.A health society should struggle for full employment.

The surprising experiment I am about to describe proves that air is all around you and that it proves down upon you.Air pressure is a wonderful force.When you swim underwater, you can feel water push down your body.The air all around you does the same.However, your body is so used to it that you do not notice this.The pressure is caused by a layer of air called the atmosphere.This layer surrounds the Earth, extending to about five kilometers above the Earth's surface. The following experiment is an easy one that you can do at home.But make sure that you are supervised, because you will need to use matches. What you need ·A hard-boiled egg without the shell ·A bottle with a neck slightly smaller than the egg ·A piece of paper ·A match Method 1)Check that the paper will sit firmly on the neck of the bottle. 2)Tear the paper into strips and put the strips into the bottle. 3)Light the paper by dropping a burning match into the bottle. 4)Quickly sit the egg on the neck of the bottle. Result Astonishingly, the egg will be sucked into the bottle.Your friends will be amazed when you show them the experiment.But be careful when you handle matches. Why it happened As the paper burns, it needs oxygen and uses up the oxygen (air)in the bottle.The egg acts as a seal in the neck of the bottle, so no more air can get inside.This reduces the air pressure inside the bottle.The air pressure must equalize, so more air from outside must enter the bottle.The outside air presses against the egg and then the egg is pushed into the bottle! That proves that air is all around and that it is pressing down on it. 1.Why is there the need to take care when you are doing the experiment? A.The bottle could break. B.You need to light the paper with a match. C.The egg needs to be shelled. D.The egg has to be perfectly placed on the neck of the bottle. 2.In the experiment, the burning inside the bottle can__. A.equalize the air pressure inside and outside B.make a seal in the neck of the bottle C.finish up the oxygen inside the bottle D.produce more oxygen inside the bottle 3.How did the egg put into the bottle? A.The oxygen inside the bottle sucked the egg in. B.It became salt without the shell. C.The neck of the bottle was wide enough. D.The outside air pressure forced it into the bottle. 4.The experiment is carried out to prove ____. A.water pushes on your body when you swim underwater B.the earth is surrounded by a layer of air called the atmosphere C.the pressure of air around us has a powerful force D.the air pressure is not equalized around us

Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing.The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves.The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become.In fact, public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent (天赋) .Anybody who can talk can speak in public.Here are some of the lessons I have learned: Try to make your idea clear and brief.If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough.If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense.After all, what you can impress your audience in your speech is one or two of your main ideas.One or two.Not ten or twenty. No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well-how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close.A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember.When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first.When you know where you're headed, you can choose any route to get there. Finally, you'd better limit the time of your speech as properly as you can to hold the audience's curiosity.Take a vaudeville act (杂耍) for example.The standard length of one is usually 12 minutes.Just imagine how you are feeling if you have been watching all the performers singing and dancing their hearts out for more than the standard time!
