For Americans, a mosquito bite is an itchy(使人發(fā)癢的) bother, but for many in Africa, a tiny bite can be deadly. One million people die each year of malaria, a disease spread by infected mosquitoes. Most of these people live in Africa, and are under age 5.

Malaria can be prevented and treated. However, many African nations don’t have the funds to fight it. Nothing but Nets (NBN) hopes to change that. The United Nations Foundation created the campaign in 2006. The mission: Squash(壓制) malaria by covering sleeping areas with nets. Hanging bed nets treated with insecticide(殺蟲(chóng)劑) is the simplest way to stop mosquitoes from biting at night. The chemical lasts four to five years. For $10, anyone can send a net to Africa and help save a life.

So far, NBN has raised $19 million and delivered 700,000 nets to seven countries. Families are taught how to use the nets. Kids also get vaccines(疫苗) and vitamins. “Women line up for miles to get these interventions(干預(yù)措施) for their kids,” says NBN director Elizabeth McKee Gore. “They understand the importance.” So do kids in this country. “They get so excited thinking of ways to raise money,” says NBN spokesperson and basketball star Ruth Riley.

NBN’s biggest fund-raiser is Katherine Commale, 7. She’s been spreading the buzz(嗡嗡聲) about bed nets for the past two years. To show how they work, she and her brother made a picture. “We teach that bed nets can save lives,” she told TFK.

Katherine has raised $42,000 for NBN. “She just wants those who need a net to have one,” says her mom, Lynda. “It’s pretty simple to her.” To find out how you can help, visit nothingbutnets.net.

Their round bodies, round flat noses and large ears often remind us of bears every time we see koalas. Probably that’s why these animals are often referred to as koala bears. Koalas are natives of Australia. However, they aren’t found all over the continent. The habitat of koala bears spans (橫越) over eastern regions of Australia that include states like Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria and also in the state of South Australia.

   Koalas are found where are enough forests of eucalyptus(桉樹(shù)) trees. The association of koalas and eucalyptus trees is due to the fact that these animals feed on the leaves of eucalyptus trees. But that’s not all. In addition, the trees also serve as the homes of the koalas.

   Koalas grow around 27 to 36 inches tall and weigh 5 to 9 kilograms on average. Male kaolas are larger than the females. Life expectancy can stretch up to 17 years.

   Like many other animals, the habitat of koala bears is fast decreasing due to deforestation and quick urbanization(都市化). However,efforts by some scientists and animal lovers have successfully introduced these creatures back in certain parts of Australia.

NUNCHAKU (《雙截棍》) is one of Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou's most popular songs. In the upcoming Hollywood movie The Green Hornet (《青蜂俠》), Jay Chou will use nunchaku to fight crimes. He will play the role of Kato, which his idol Bruce Lee (李小龍) played in the 1960s' TV series.

In The Green Hornet, Kato is a martial arts master. He drives a special car called Black Beauty for his friend Britt Reid. They fight crimes with martial arts and weapons to make the society peaceful.

Jay Chou entered the movie business as the lead actor in Initial D (《頭文字D》) in 2005. He won Best Newcomer at the Golden Horse Awards. After that, Jay's performing talent has made him even more famous. In his self-directed movie A Secret That Can't Be Told (《不能說(shuō)的秘密》), Jay starred as a talented high school student who plays the piano. This movie has won him more die-hard fans.

However, Jay isn't satisfied. He once said: “I won't be Bruce Lee's Kato – I will bring my own understanding. It's a dream role, and I'm looking forward to the challenge.”

第二節(jié) 回答問(wèn)題(共3小題;每小題2分,滿分6分)閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)第58至第60小題的具體要求,簡(jiǎn)要回答問(wèn)題。

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.

    When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.

    If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(責(zé)備), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.

    Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

    So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering.

58. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, what will happen ? (不超過(guò)5個(gè)單詞)

第三節(jié)回答問(wèn)題(共3小題;每小題2分,滿分6分)

閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)第58至第60小題的具體要求,簡(jiǎn)要回答問(wèn)題,并將答案轉(zhuǎn)寫(xiě)到答題卡上。

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. But how do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities(品質(zhì)) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability(可靠).

Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.

At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults(過(guò)錯(cuò)) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.

Sometimes you will meet “fair weather friends”. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. So, I think another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on(信賴) a good friend. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.

There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. A good friend likes the same things I like. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.

When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a friend!

58. According to the author, what good characters should a good friend have? (回答詞數(shù)不超過(guò)9

Do you have a goal for life? What's it? Do you want to become a writer, singer or just become a rich person?

A recent survey shows that in modern society, most people pick up practical goals, such as “earning money to buy a house and a car”, “to improve one's life quality”, “finding a good job”.

Wang You worked in a small firm (商行) in Nanjing. The job was good and he didn't have to work for extra hours. However, he felt the work was not exciting at all and the life was boring. So he gave up his job and went to Beijing in February, 2007. When he arrived in Beijing, he set his new goal as finding a good job.

Nowadays more and more people want to live a better life. This fact shows that the society is making progress and people's life goals have become more practical. One researcher says, “Everybody has his/her own life goal, which will be surely different from people to people. If one is poor, one's life goal will be to earn more money; if one doesn't have a diploma, studying hard to get a diploma will become his life goal; and if one doesn't have love, his life goal will be to look for it. But if one has no life goal, he will idle away (虛度) his lifetime. {007}”

58. What will a poor man’s life goal be according to this passage? ( 回答詞數(shù)不超過(guò)4個(gè))
