Thousands of houses collapsed or were badly damaged.Tremors were felt in neighbouring Hubei Province, where one was killed and nearly 100 injured; and in Anhui Province, where dozens of homes were damaged.Tents were the focus of relief efforts in the hardest-hit Ruichang city as hundreds of thousands of wary(謹(jǐn)慎的) people continued to stay in the open. In the city, more than 420,000 people had left their homes because of some aftershocks every now and then; and most of them lived in tents put up in open spaces or on wide streets.Hundreds of patients were being treated in tents because hospital buildings suffered structural damage. The hospital is treating about 100 who were injured on Saturday. Ruichang People's Hospital, with makeshift tents and plastic shelters serving as wards(病房), was treating dozens of injured but was already much too crowded, local media reported.About 6,300 tents yesterday reached Ruichang and Jiujiang, which were near the epicenter (震中); and 1,500 more were on their way from Hubei, said Liu Yongfa, an official with the Ministry of Civil Affairs in charge of disaster. Zhang Xiao, a Ruichang citizen whose two-storey house was damaged, has to share a tent with his neighbours because of the limited number. “Children and the elderly get priority," said Zhang. As local government officials said more tents were needed. People there also received instant noodles, cakes, milk and bottled mineral water.56. What does the underlined word “tremors” in paragraph three mean? A. shaking movements caused by fearB. extreme fear C. shaking movements of the groundD. alarms57. How many people had lost their lives in the earthquake when the journalist was writing the report? A. 16.B. 100.C. 15.D. 400.58. Which of the following statements is true? A. Jiujiang suffered most in the earthquake. B. More tents were needed for the people suffering from the earthquake. C. There are deaths in all the areas where tremors were felt. D. Only 7,800 tents had reached Ruichang and Jiujiang.59. All the following are mentioned in the passage except _. A. the number of people injured in the earthquake B. the cause of the earthquake C. governments immediate reaction towards the disaster D. help from other areasBIt began when Peter Parker was attending a high-school demonstration of radiation technology. A spider crept into the beam of radiation and bit Peter's hand. This gave him superhuman spider-like abilities. Every boy may want to be a hero like him. But how much do you know about a real spider?Why can spiders walk up walls?Spider-Man can stick to almost any surface. Many spiders do this by producing a little bit of sticky silk onto their feet as they move across the surface, fixing their feet in place. Others have millions of specially shaped, microscopic hairs on their legs that slip into all tiny spaces of a ceiling or window. This also explains why you find spiders in the bath - they can't hold anything on the smooth surface to climb out.Stronger than steelAnyone who has ever walked into a spider's web knows that the silk is extremely strong. Dragline silk, which spiders use to crawl down from ceiling to floor, is the strongest of all. Weight for weight it is actually stronger than steel, holding over 280,000,000kg per square metre (400,000 pounds per square inch) without breaking.Unfortunately, it's very difficult to farm spiders for their silk because they tend to eat each other. So some scientists try to steal the spider's silk gene and put it into something more friendlylike a goat.Spider-GoatsIn an unlikely coupling, genetic engineers have now bred goats that have spider silk genes inside them. By doing this, they can harvest the silk proteins from the goat's milk (silky milk, anyone?). The silk gene was just one of 70,000 that make up the DNA blueprint for building a normal goat.In adult female goats, the silk gene is made active only while the animal is producing milk. Called 'bio-steel', the silk could be used in medical supplies, space equipment and bullet-proof vests.So there's a new superhero in town. Swinging from skyscraper to skyscraper, fighting crime! It's - Spider-Goat!60. The passage above is mainly about _. A. a very famous movie SpidermanB. some experiments made on spiders C. features of spidersD. a new creature - spider-goat61.

Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. A spider can walk on any surface with its silk and hairs. B. Scientists create the spider-goat by putting the spiders silk gene into a goats body. C. People cant farm spiders for their silk. D. Goats are more friendly than spiders.63. “Bio-steel” mentioned in the passage is _. A. the steel produced by animals B. the silk which can take the place of steel C. the steel which can be used in medical supplies D. the silk which is stronger than steelCSummertime: the smell of the barbecue, the roar of holiday crowds at events throughout the land, family, picnics and the beach. It's America's birthday party and everyone is invited.Although July 4th is celebrated as the day on which America broke away from Britains rule and the beginning of the American Revolution, the actual series of events show that the process took far longer than a single day. The original resolution (決議案) was introduced by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia on June 7, 1776, and called for the Continental Congress to declare the United States free from British rule. Three days later a committee headed by Thomas Jefferson was chosen to prepare a suitable writing for the occasion.The document that we know as the Declaration of Independence was adopted by Congress on July 4th although the resolution that led to the writing of the Declaration was actually approved two days earlier.All of this had occurred with some of the delegates(代表) to the Congress not even present; New York, for example, did not even vote on the resolution until July 9th.Even more interesting is the fact that not a single signature was appended(簽署) to the Declaration on July 4th. While most of the fifty-six names were in place by early August, one signer, Thomas McKean, did not actually sign the Declaration until 1781.Nevertheless, July 4th was the day singled out to mark the event of the United States founding itself as a nation.64. The first paragraph gives us the idea _. A. how American people celebrate their National Day B. how American people spend their summer holiday C. where American people celebrate someones birthday D. how and where American people spend their free time65. July 4 was set as Americas birthday because on that day _. A. the states in America declared independence B. the Declaration was approved C. all the delegates to the congress voted on the Declaration D. the congress adopted the Declaration66. The writer wrote the passage in order to _. A. make people remember the memorable day - July 4 B. explain how the Americas National Day came into being C. draw American peoples attention to the history of their country D. tell people July 4 is not the exact day when America became independent67. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. Americas Independence Day B. American Independent War C. Fight for IndependenceD. The Declaration of IndependenceDHe may be still young, but he may surprise you! If you ask around, many would say that the music world has a new leader - the real king Jay Chou. As a child, Jay Chou was never too good at his subjects, and when he didnt get into any college, a lot of people said that he wouldnt be very hopeful in life. His mom always worried about his future, but he never did. “I knew I still had music to depend on.

Today, he has already written for some of the most popular Asian singers, including Coco Lee, Jacky Wu, etc.It was only in 2000 that Jay put out his own album(專輯) “Jay”. Jays soft and smooth voice is especially gentle and calm, making this first album an immediate hit. Each song in the album has its own different style, and skillfully, Jay used voice to suit each songs character.Lyrics(歌詞) of Jays songs all have a special touch. In his song “Dad, I am Back”, the subject is a broken family. “I heard that after war, there is peace. Why do I always see my dad beating my mom? Since I was young, you told me to learn from you, use you as a model. So much pretense(借口). How do you expect me to be like you!”68. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Jay Chou? A.
