16.Oprah Winfrey's own story is an inspiration because she overcame almost every obstacle that a person might face. She is an icon( 圣像) to people all over the world because of her commitment (獻身) to help those who have faced similar obstacles. We therefore salute a friend and a role model.
It is said over and over,but it is always true that young people are the future. Oprah,53,shared our views that the gains of our democracy would be nullified(廢止) if we did not properly educate our children and youth. She obviously recognized the potential in our youth. The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls-located near Johannesburg and educating girls in Grades 7through 12-is therefore a wonderfully appropriate gift to the people of South Africa,one that will endure(持續(xù)) over many lifetimes.
When I went to the opening of her school,I looked at the shining faces of these young women and thought every one of them has the potential to be an Oprah Winfrey. The school is important because it will change the courses of these girls'lives and it will brighten the future of all women in South Africa.
Oprah understands that in Africa,women and girls have often been doubly disadvantaged. They have had the curse of low expectations and unequal opportunities. She is a model for a all of them-and for all of us-of what one person can do to make a difference in the loves of others.That is why we consider her to be one of our heroes.

A. she sets a good example to people in trouble
B. she is always ready to accept different people
C. she wrote inspiring stories about herself
D. she has faced many obstacles in her life
57. Oprah Winfrey's purpose in opening a school near Johannesburg is toC.
A. keep democracy in South Africa  
B. help educate black people in Africa
C. help change girls'life in South Africa 
D. fight for black people's freedom
58. The underlined word"curse"in the last paragraph meansD.

6.Tomorrow's World Book Day has inspired a slew of literary events throughout the capital.Xing Yi and Liu Zhihua report.
As World Book Day,April 23,approaches,various reading events are being held by government agencies,libraries and bookstores throughout the capital.
At the launch of the 5th Beijing Reading Season in Great Canal Park in Tongzhou district on Saturday night,81-year-old Yin Zhiguang,head of Beijing Elocution Troupe,led the audience in reciting a poem.
Activities focusing on different readerships will highlight World Book Day in bookstores throughout Beijing,such as picture book sharing for children in Xidan Book Building,conversations with musicians and authors for young people in Sanlian Bookstore,talks with diplomats for people interested in international affairs in Wangfujing Xinhua bookstore,and a 12-hour late-night reading marathon for night owls at One-Way Space bookstore.
Recently,we conducted a survey about how many extra-curricular books students read per year.On average,each student read 5.34books,which is definitely not adequate compared with their counterparts from the Western countries.It is upsetting to see the outcome.When asked what students in our school do in their spare time,they claim that they tend to watch TV and surf the Internet,for they can have great fun.Some students even complain that they are forced to attend some extra make-up classes so that they have no time to play,not to mention reading books.
School authority is planning to launch a campaign to encourage students to read more extra-curricular books.

With World Book Day drawing,various activities are held in Beijing to highlight the importance of book reading.But a recent survey shows students prefer to watch TV or surf the Internet rather than read books.
The survey sets me thinking why fewer students choose to read books in their spare time.There are some reasons accounting for this phenomenon.First of all,most students are burdened with too much homework.Still others haven't formed a habit of reading.They would rather spend their spare time on TV or the Internet for fun.
However,reading has many benefits.Through reading we can learn more about the world.Besides,it can help us think better.Last but not least,reading can make our life more colourful.
I think teachers are supposed to limit the amount of our homework so that we can have more time to read.For another,it's a good idea to form reading clubs and learn from each other..

4.A.Be optimistic
B.Stay close to friends
C.Act as if you are happy
D.Make somebody happy
E.Exercise regularly
F.Be grateful
Happiness is a choice.To be happy at all times,you need to make happiness a habit and not just an act.I believe that the following points will show you how to stay happy no matter what happens.
61.F
Gratitude is a sign of appreciation and you ought to show appreciation for life.Always wake up every morning in acknowledgement that you have a list of things you should be thankful for,for example,I woke up this morning,I have food on my table,I have clothes to wear,I have a good paying job,the skies are beautiful and the atmosphere is great.By the time,I am sure that you will feel better already.
62.E
Unhappiness can result from stressing our bodies and minds.Scientists believe that 20 minutes of exercise can make you happy regardless of how sad you may be.Exercise raises your heart rate.As your heart begins to pound,certain hormones(荷爾蒙)are released which create a sense of total well being and you begin to feel well again,the mind stress is gone and everything is under control.Another thing you can do is to take a walk; this works for me all the time.When you take a walk,you are able to think over matters that are bothering you and come up with solutions to them.
63.D
"The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer somebody else up."Said Mark Twain.When you sow happiness,you gain happiness.Mother Teresa knew this secret so well; she devoted her life to helping others even if it simply meant putting a smile on someone's face.Here are two of her famous quotes:"A life not lived for others is not a life; let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier."
64.A
Change is inevitable(不可避免的)and no situation is permanent.Whenever you are feeling sad or depressed,always remember that it's temporary and that tomorrow will be better,tough times don't last but tough people do.Develop a positive attitude,and you will stay happy.
65.C
Smile always,even when you are feeling blue.When the body acts,emotions follow.A smile costs nothing but it creates much,it enriches those who receive it without making those who give poor.Learn to smile and act at all times,it won't only make you happy,it will also win you happy friends.
