KANDAHAR, Afghanistan–-- Afghans burned tires and chanted “Death to America” after U.S troops fired Monday(April 12, 2010) on a civilian bus near Kandahar, killing four people and wounding more than a dozen. Afghanistan’s president accused NATO of breaking its commitment to safeguard civilian lives. The attack angered Afghan officials and the public in Kandahar, the Taliban’s birthplace, and dealt a blow to U.S and NATO efforts to win popular support for a coming offensive to drive the insurgents(叛乱分子) from the biggest city in the south. NATO expressed regret for the loss of civilian lives and said it was investigating. Nearly 200 Afghans blocked highway where the shooting occurred, burning tires, firing weapons and chanting “Death to America” and other slogans. They also called for the ouster (forcing somebody out of a pasition) of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, a Kandahar native who has been appealing for the people here to support the U.S-led campaign against the Taliban. “The Americans are constantly killing our civilians and the government is not demanding an explanation,” protester Mohammad Razaq said. “We demand justice from the Karzai government and the punishment of those soldiers responsible.” Kandahar, a city of about a half million people, is nominally under government control, but the Taliban have stepped up infiltration(浸润), staging attacks and threatening local people. “These foreigners have their enemies, but killing Afghans is not the answer,” said Abdul Hadi, who sells homemade herbal medicine in a public market. He said international forces should publish a schedule of their patrols(巡逻) so Afghans can keep out of the way. “Better yet, I would like to see them leave Afghanistan,” he added. Haji Zahir, who runs a transport firm, said it was time for U.S. and other foreign forces to withdraw from the country. “They say they want to bring security. It is all lies, lies. They kill Afghans. That is not the way to bring security,” Zahir said. 46．According to the passage, we can safely conclude that____________. A．American soldiers are killing Talibans effectively B．Anger rises as US troops kill 4 Afghans on a bus C．NATO expressed great dissatisfaction with American troops D．Afghan President Hamid Karzai required NATO to withdraw 47．The underlined word in Paragraph 5 nominally most probably means____________. A．completely unknown to the people in the world B．partially well-known to the people across the globe C．bearing the name of a famous person around the world D．officially described as something, when this is not really true 48．As for NATO soldiers’ rude action, Abdul Hadi is ____________. A．absolutely angry and upset B．a little pleased but impatient C．very angry and dissatisfied D．impatient but bearable 49．We can infer from the passage that____________ A．NATO troops can completely control Afghanistan B．NATO troops can bring security to Afghanistan C．Afghans will accept NATO’s control sooner or later D．it’s impossible for NATO to conquer Afghanistan and its people 50．Which statement is true according to the passage? A．NATO fails to win popular support for a coming offensive. B．Kandahar is the most important city in Afghanistan. C．NATO has really brought security to Afghanistan. D．NATO troops will withdraw from Afghanistan in the near future.

In “Relax, We’ll Be Fine”, columnist David Brooks writes, “the fact is, despite all the problems, America’s future is extremly bright.” Mr. Brooks acknowledges that “According to recent survey, 60 percent of Americans think the country is heading in the wrong direction. The same percentage believe that the U.S. is in long-term decline. The political system is not functional. A financial crisis looks unavoidable. There are plenty of reasons to be sad.” But, he writes: “Demographers(人口学家) predict that over the next 40 years, the U.S. population will increase by an additional 100 million people, to 400 million over all. The population will be determined, hardworking and relatively young. In 2050, only a quarter will be over 60, compared with 31 percent in China and 41 percent in Japan.” As the rising generation leads an economic recovery, it will also participate in a communal (of community) one. We are living in a global age of social entrepreneurship(创业精神). In sum, the U.S. is on the edge of a demographic, economic and social recovery, built on its historic strengths. The U.S. has always been good at destructive change. And it’s always been good at decentralized community-building, too. Surely a country with this much going for it is not going to wait around passively and let a rotten political culture drag it down. 51．In his article Relax, We’ll Be Fine, David Brooks intends to____________. A．encourage Americans to be optimistic about their future B．give Americans courage to face their financial crisis C．persuade Americans to live happily and generously D．inspire Americans to lead an economic recovery 52．There are all the reasons for Americans to be unhappy except____________ A．the function-failed political system B．the increasing population C．the declining economy D．the wrong direction and financial crisis 53．Over the next 40 years, according to David Brooks, Americans will be____________ A．more optimistic and humorous B．more pessimistic and stronger C．more energetic and promising D．more considerate and aggressive 54．In the author’s opinion, America____________. A．has always benefited from wars B．has done well by its political system C．has contributed a lot to human progress D．has contributed to world’s economy 55．We can learn from the passage that____________ A．American political system and culture are backward B．Americans are not a nation to give in to difficulties C．Americans are very destructive and aggressive D．America has been in an economic and social recovery
