In today's world, almost everyone knows that air pollution(污染)and water pollution are harmful to people's health. However, not all the persons know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and that is harmful to human health, too.

Besides, noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people's life difficult and unpleasant, or even make people ill or even drive them mad.

It is said that a continuous noise of over 85 decibels(分贝)can make people deaf. Now The governments in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels.

The differences between men and women's friendships

Betty and Harold have been married for years. But one thing still puzzles (困扰) old Harold. How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and they're still sitting on the sofa and talking?

What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that women have so much to share.

Betty shrugs. Talk? We're friends.

Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men. Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to a female friend.

"In general," writes Rubin in her new book, "women's friendships with each other lie on shared emotions and support, but men's relationships are marked by shared activities.”

“ Men keep their innermost(内心深处的) feelings to themselves. " Rubin writes, " Whereas(然而) a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage. However, a man by society doesn’t complain about his marriage trouble. it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa. "

1.What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that ________.

A.he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband

B.women have so much to share.

C.women show little interest in ballgames

D.he find his wife difficult to talk to

2.Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to _________.

A.a male friend

B.a female friend

C.her parents

D.her husband

3.What do women's friendships with each other lie on in general?

A.shared emotions

B.support

C.shared activities

D.shared emotions and support

4.According to the last paragraph, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?

A.Ending his marriage without good reason.

B.Spending too much time with his friends.

C.complaining about his marriage trouble.

D.going out to ballgames too often..

5.What is the article about? ________.

A.happy and successful marriages

B.friendships of men and women

C.emotional problems in marriage

D.interactions between men and women

I’m sure many of you have seen Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Multiplicity, or many of the other movies that describe cloning. Most of what you see in these movies is false. What you don’t know is that cloning could be dangerous, to the clone and to our society as a whole. I think human cloning is wrong mainly for four reasons.

What about identity? Humans are promised the right to their own personalities. What would happen if we ignore those rights by giving them someone else’s genetic identity? True, Cloning may prevent people from possessing their identities.

Also, these is a large power struggle here. Cloning means a degree of power and controls over another person’s physical identity and that ignores their rights and their only personalities. The person doing the cloning would have more power than any parent would have.

Cloning would also deal with killing embryos (胚胎). You might not have known, but Dolly, the sheep that was cloned in 1996, was one of over 200 sheep embryos and hers was the only embryo that survived. The rest died or were thrown away. Imagine if the failure rate was that high when we started to clone humans. cloning means running the risk of wasting too much effort

Cloning someone, at this present time, would be extremely dangerous to the birth mother and the clone. In studies done on cows, 4 out of 12 birth mothers died. There is a very high failure rate, which is shown in the cloning of Dolly. Even if you had a few good embryos, failures have been noticeable in animal tests.

So, should we work ahead in the world of cloning? I say no. the risks are greater than the benefits. It’s dangerous to the clone and to the birth mother. We would be killing human lives in the process. It would also be a violation(侵害) of the clone’s right to its own genetic identity and personality.

1.The author thinks human cloning is wrong mainly for ______ reasons.

A.4

B.3

C. 2

D.5

2.According to the article, what is the author’s opinion about identity?

A.Cloning itself gives parents great power over identity.

B.People’s identity is completely determined by their genes.

C.Government has the rights to confirm people’s identities.

D.Cloning may prevent people from possessing their identities.

3.According to Paragraph 4 ,which is right ?      ____.

A.human cloning is much more difficult than animal cloning

B.there are 200 sheep successfully cloned.

C.cloning means running the risk of wasting too much effort

D.numbers of baby animals are likely to be created by cloning

4.Why does the author mention some movies in the first paragraph?

A.To introduce the topic of the article.

B.To present his idea about the movies.

C.To state the conclusion first.

D.To make the article unusual.

5. What is the best title of the passage?

A.What Is Human Cloning

B.Human Cloning Is Wrong

C.How Does Human Cloning Happen

D.Discussion On Human Cloning

阅读下面短文,根据第81至第84小题的具体要求,简要回答问题,并将答案转写到答题卡上。

Too many people want others to be friends,but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last long. To have a friend,you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules:be honest;be generous;be understanding.

Honesty is where a good friend starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth,people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest,you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.

Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy,like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them,you help your friend know better.

Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be the first step in solving the problem. So a friend must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.

No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends,you must practice honesty,generosity,and understanding.

1.Why don’t some friendships last long?  (not more than 15 words)    (3’)

2.What does Generosity mean?   (not more than 1 words)     (2’)
