More and more birds are flying to settle at Qinghai Lake, one of the highest inland lakes in China, thanks to the protection efforts of local governments. Covering an area of over 4,000 square kilometers, Qinghai Lake is also the country’s biggest salt-water lake.
Located in Northwest China’s Qinghai Province, the lake is famous for the two islands at its northwest point--Cormorant Island and Egg Island.
The two islands have plenty of floating grass and various schools of fish, offering rich food sources for birds. The islands have become a paradise for different kinds of groups of birds and have been called ‘Bird Islands’.
Each March and April, when ice and snow covering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau starts to melt, over 20 kinds of birds fly to the Bird Islands to lay eggs.
During the months, flocks of birds cover the whole sky over the islands and birds eggs can be found everywhere. Visitors can hear the singing of birds from miles away. These have become a world famous symbol of the lake.
To protect this paradise for birds and support calls for ecological protection, China set up the Qinghai Lake Natural Protection Zone at the end of 1997. Meanwhile, the State has pointed out the Bird Islands and Spring Bay of the Qinghai Lake as central protection zones.
Inspection officials and management employees often patrol the lake, improving local residents’ knowledge of related laws and spreading knowledge about animal protection to visitors. They are making great efforts to call on people to love and protect the birds.
At the same time, they have built special fences around the island area, to prevent wolves, foxes and other carnivorous animals, as well as illegal hunters from breaking up the birds’ nest-building, egg-laying and breeding. As a result, more and more birds are coming to the islands for sheltering and breeding.
【小題1】Why are more and more birds coming to the biggest salt-water lake in the Great Northwest?

A．Because it is getting warmer and warmer.
B．Because it is being reformed
C．Because environments there are getting more and more agreeable for them to live in.
D．Because the people there are becoming richer and richer
【小題2】The birds feed on _______according to the passage.
A．floating fish and various grasses
B．grass moving on the water surface and different kinds of fish
C．salt water and plenty of grains
D．corn from the local farmers
【小題3】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The ice and snow covering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau doesn’t change into water, unless more than 20 kinds of birds come to the Bird Islands
B．Flocks of birds fly up to the whole sky over islands to lay eggs
C．Visitors can listen to the singing of birds from miles away, but they couldn’t see any of the birds
D．“The ice on the Plateau begins to change into water” means spring is coming
【小題4】The officials go around the lake mainly to _________
A．let the farmers there know the animal protection law
B．tell the farmers there some knowledge about animal protection.
C．call on people to love and protect the birds
D．a(chǎn)ll of the above

MONTAGNE: In the summer of 2011, the world first heard of a small island in Norway under the most terrible of circumstances. Utoya Island was a youth camp run by Norway's Labor Party. One day in July, a heavily armed, right-wing extremist stepped onto the island and began shooting at random. Sixty-nine people died, over 100 were wounded; almost all, young people. This month, artist Jonas Dahlberg was appointed to create a memorial. He described to us the experience he imagines for those who come to the island.
DAHLBERG: You start your walk through a forest of evergreens on a wooden pathway. After a while, this pathway starts to go down into the landscape.
MONTAGNE: Down into the landscape, and into a short tunnel. When you come out, you are unable to go any farther. You can't get to the tip of the island because it has been cut off. So all you can do is look across a narrow channel of water at what is now a wall of polished stone, carved with the names of the dead.
DAHLBERG: It becomes almost like a gravestone. You cannot reach it. It's close enough to be able to read, but it's forever lost for your possibility to reach.
MONTAGNE: It's being called a memory wound. Exactly what do you mean by that?
DAHLBERG: During my first site visit, the experience of seeing those gunshots—and you can see it was like being in an open wound. And it took me to a stage of deep sadness where it was hard to breathe. So I didn't want to illustrate loss; I wanted to make actual loss. It's just a cut through the island.
MONTAGNE: On the day of the massacre, just hours before launching his shooting on the island, the killer set off a bomb in downtown Oslo, leaving eight people dead. As those events were unfolding, artist Jonas Dahlberg had been out with his brother, and stopped in at a seaside village.
DAHLBERG: In the harbor, it was silent, and this is the higher end of summer. So, it's normally a very lively place. And it was total silence there; and it was a very, very strange feeling in the whole small village. And it's totally impossible to grasp what is going on. And then it just kept on. It's still almost impossible to understand it. It's also one of the reasons why it's so important with memorials for these kind of things. It's to maybe help a little bit to understand what was happening. So it's not just about remembering. It's also about trying to just understand.
MONTAGNE: Artist Jonas Dahlberg designed the memorial for the 69 who died at a youth camp on Utoya Island. The attack was the deadliest in Norway since World War II. That memorial will open in 2015. And to see a virtual version of what it will look like, go to our website, at npr.org. This is Renee Montagne at NPR news.
【小題1】Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Utoya Island was the only bloody shooting spot planned by the killer.
B．Utoya Island used to be a youth camp site and now has been reduced to total silence.
C．Dahlberg and his brother witnessed the shooting on Utoya Island.
D．Visitors to Utoya Island can touch the names of the victims carved on the polished stone.
【小題2】By the underlined phrase “a memory wound”, Dahlberg means all the following EXCEPT that ________.
A．the artist plans to slice through the end of an island to make actual loss
B．memorials are supposed to be not only about remembering but helping people to understand what was happening
C．this memorial shows the gunshots vividly to the visitors for them to understand what was happening
D．the space between is meant to symbolize how those who were killed are gone but are not forgotten
【小題3】 Which of the following pictures shows the design of the memorial?
A．B．
C．D．

A father with Parkinson's disease was arrested as he watched the Olympic cycling road race because he failed to smile or look as if he was enjoying himself.
Mark Worsfold, a martial arts trainer and former soldier, claims that he was thrown to the floor and handcuffed just as cyclists passed by. His worried wife Nicola only found out he was being held after she reported him missing when he did not turn up for their daughter's ninth birthday party. The 54­year­old man had his fingerprints, DNA and mugshot taken before being questioned about why he did not appear to be enjoying the event on July 28. Police said Mr. Worsfold, who was held for over five hours, was arrested because of his manner，his state of dress and his being too near to the course. A spokesman added that the arrest was necessary to avoid a breach(破壞) of the peace because he was standing near a group of protesters(抗議者)．
But Mr. Worsfold, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2010, said that one of the symptoms of the disease is muscle rigidity, which can cause his face to become expressionless. “I was sitting minding my own business”， he told a local newspaper. “Before I knew anything the police grabbed me off this seven­foot wall, threw me to the floor and handcuffed me, so all I saw of the cycle race was between the feet of people from the pavement. It could have been done better. I was arrested for not smiling. I have Parkinson's disease.”
Mr. Worsfold has since asked for a letter of not being guilty from police. The officers who made the arrest have apologized to him.
【小題1】Which word can be used to replace the underlined word “mugshot” in the second paragraph?

A．Clothes. B．Photos. C．Measures. D．Tools. 
【小題2】Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Worsfold's wife was immediately informed of his being arrested by the police. 
B．Worsfold was arrested because he was extremely dangerous. 
C．Worsfold enjoyed the cycle race though he saw it between the feet of people from the pavement. 
D．Worsfold was arrested because of his clothes as well as his facial expression. 
【小題3】What can we infer from the passage?
A．The officers must have been punished for Worsfold's arrest. 
B．Worsfold has an expressionless face and probably looks strong. 
C．The officers apologized to Worsfold after one day's arrest. 
D．Worsfold was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease four years ago.

NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.
In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it.
Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.
"Some memories can ruin people's lives . They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特質(zhì)). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.
"All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.
【小題1】The passage is mainly about              .

A．a(chǎn) new medical invention
B．a(chǎn) new research on the pill
C．a(chǎn) way of erasing painful memories
D．a(chǎn)n argument about the research on the pill
【小題2】The drug tested on people can           .
A．cause the brain to fix memories
B．stop people remembering bad experiences
C．prevent body producing certain chemicals
D．Wipe out the emotional effects of memories
【小題3】We can infer from the passage that           .
A．people doubt the effects of the pills
B．the pill will stop people's bad experiences
C．taking the pill will do harm to people's health
D．the pill has probably been produced in America
【小題4】Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?
A．Some memories can ruin people's lives.
B．People want to get rid of bad memories.
C．Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.
D．The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.

In the past ten years, America’s National Basketball Association (NBA) has grown increasingly dependent on the rest of the world to supply players.
When Michael Jordan and Larry Bird won gold in Barcelona in 1992, the Americans were praised for teaching the world how to play basketball. This season, however, 20 percent of NBA rosters（花名冊） will be filled by non-Americans. NBA commissioner David Stem happily embraces the trend. On a visit to Paris in October, Stern outlined his vision for the future, which is likely to see Europe hosting NBA games by 2010.
The NBA is now planning to take China by storm.
“Our experience in China has been that it is going to be explosive in its growth,” said Stern. The strategy（戰(zhàn)略，策略） in China is television. “We’ve made 14 deals in China with local and national networks on cable and satellite.” The success of Chinese centre Yao Ming has paved the way for the NBA marketing blitz in China. The NBA, which is broadcasted in more than 200 countries in 42 languages, will put that to the test in October 2004 when the Houston Rockets play two pre-season games against the Sacramento Kings in Beijing and Shanghai. The NBA knows that it needs a global market to compensate for tough times on home soil.
“It doesn’t matter where the players come from, all the NBA teams now know that they have to scout（尋找，覓得） internationally,” said Terry Lyons, the NBA’s vice-president of international public relations. “It has increased the level of competition here.” As Frenchman Tony Parker and Argentine Emanuel Ginobili showed in winning championship rings with the San Antonio Spurs last season, many people can earn the respect of their American peers. Others, such as the Houston Rockets’ Chinese centre Yao Ming — number one draft pick in 2002 — and the Detroit Pistons’ 18-year-old Serb Darko Milicic — number two overall in this year’s draft — are icons（偶像）in-waiting. It is the ultimate（最后的，根本的） revolution — the rest of the world teaching the US how to play basketball.
【小題1】According to the report,                 .

A．Michael Jordan is still playing a very important role in NBA
B．the part played by the foreign players in NBA will be great
C．Yao Ming is to play two pre-season games in NBA
D．European countries will host the 2004 NBA games
【小題2】The underlined phrase “take China by storm” has the meaning of      _______ ___.
A．NBA intends to make China its “marketing center”
B．NBA is planning to set up some training centers in China
C．there’ll be a big storm when NBA comes to China to play against the Sacramento Kings
D．the NBA’s live basket games will be broadcasted on all the TVs in China
【小題3】What seems to be the biggest change that is happening to NBA?
A. NBA is expecting more foreign players to join the league.
B. China’s rapid development in sports affects NBA.
C. Yao Ming has taken the place of Michael Jordan.
D. The NBA will stop teaching the world how to play basketball.
【小題4】When the writer talked of “home soil”, he was referring to        _        _.
A．farms in the States
B．native Americans
C．the NBA training center
D．the USA
【小題5】Which of the following can be used as the best title for the passage?
A．The Non-American Basketball Players
B．NBA Is Coming to China
C．The Foreign Ties That Bind the NBA
D．NBA Is Making Big Progress
