Public caught up in argument over safety of genetically modified or simply GM products, report Zhang Lei and Zhong Nan in Beijing.
More than 300 people gathered to enjoy a bowl of porridge made from genetically modified food on Saturday, an attempt to quell public fears about the safety of the product.
The first China Golden Rice Tasting Event was held at Huazhong Agricultural University in Wuhan, Hubei province, sparking another round in the nationwide debate about the safety of GM crops, often called "Frankenfood" by opponents.
Similar events have been held in more than 28 cities since May, the university said.
Both the pro and anti camps have posted conflicting comments on the Internet, with each providing evidence to back up their beliefs, but the exchanges are becoming increasingly bitter.
Jiang Tao, a senior engineer at the Center for Agricultural Resources Research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who is in favor of GM foods, was annoyed about what he called "amateurs" spreading rumors.
"Just look at the people who are opposed to GM foods; can you find anyone from a related field in the scientific community?" he asked. Jiang also accused the anti-GM lobby of repeatedly using outdated or inaccurate data to support an "incorrect" stance.
Chen Yunfa, an independent researcher into the Yangtze River Delta economy, recently wrote a commentary on the Internet news portal Eastday in which he criticized the actions of the 61 scientists, saying they had gone "beyond their proper duty". He suggested that large multinational corporations might be behind the letter and similar incidents, prompted by a desire to freeze China's patent hybrid rice technology out of the market.
To support his contentions, Chen said that GM rice, first produced by scientists in the US, still hasn't gained official approval from the US government. However, the US authorities have actually granted licenses to six varieties of GM rice. The commercial planting of two varieties - anti-herbicide (BAR) transgenic rice LL RICE 06 and LL RICE 62 - produced by the French pharmaceutical company Sanofi-Aventis, was approved in 1999 and a license for cultivation for edible use was granted in 2000.
The public outcry for GM labeling and boycotting has hindered the advancement of the technology. Concern about GM foods has been fueled by studies like the one published by French professor Gilles-Eric Séralini in September 2012. Séralini claimed that his research involving rats proved that the GM corn fed to them caused tumor growth. Furthermore, there is growing concern that the pesticides(殺蟲劑) used on GMOs(轉(zhuǎn)基因作物)are contributing to the decline of the world’s honey bee population, leading to honey bee deaths by infecting the brains of the insects with toxins. Therefore, some experts recommend the labeling of non-GM foods so that consumers can make that decision without a regulatory burden being placed on GMOs.
However, we should be cautious about anything that may risk humans’ life. Only time will tell.
【小題1】Why did more than 300 people enjoy porridge made from genetically modified food?

A．To show evidence that GM products are dangerous.
B．To support that the first China Golden Rice Tasting is safe.
C．To rid public of fears and worries about the safety of GM foods.
D．To draw public’s attention to nationwide planting of GM products.
【小題2】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Those who are for GM products and those who are against keep arguing fiercely by holding conferences.
B．People are failing to show evidence to support their pros and cons, although they hold a firm belief of their own.
C．Some people think those against GM foods have a good knowledge of GM technology and are spreading rumors.
D．GM food may be just a way for some multinational corporations to drive China’s patent hybrid rice out of the market.
【小題3】What can we infer from the second paragraph from bottom?
A．The public advocated that GM products should be labeled clearly.
B．Séralini claimed that his research proved the GM corn caused rats to grow faster.
C．Many honey bees have died because they were fed with GM corn.
D．There should be some restrictions on GM products’ selling.
【小題4】What is the writer’s attitude towards GM products?
A．Supportive.B．Suspicious.C．Indifferent.D．Critical.


【小題1】C
【小題2】D
【小題3】A
【小題4】B

解析試題分析：本篇是一則新聞報(bào)道，報(bào)到公眾卷入轉(zhuǎn)基因食品是否安全的爭(zhēng)論中。
【小題1】C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“an attempt to quell public fears about the safety of the product”可知“300多人集中品嘗轉(zhuǎn)基因稀飯，其目的是：試圖消除公眾對(duì)轉(zhuǎn)基因產(chǎn)品是否安全的恐懼”，故選項(xiàng)C正確。
【小題2】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第四段“He suggested that large multinational corporations might be behind
the letter and similar incidents, prompted by a desire to freeze China's patent hybrid rice technology out of the
market.”可以知道“大多數(shù)跨國(guó)公司想利用轉(zhuǎn)基因產(chǎn)品把中國(guó)的具有專利權(quán)的雜交水稻擠出市場(chǎng)”，故D
項(xiàng)正確。
【小題3】A主旨大意題。根據(jù)本段的最后一句話“Therefore, some experts recommend the labeling of non-GM foods so that consumers can make that decision without a regulatory burden being placed on GMOs.”可以得到答案A 正確。
【小題4】B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一句話“However, we should be cautious about anything that may risk humans’ life. Only time will tell.(然而，我們對(duì)待任何可能的危及人類的生活事情應(yīng)該持謹(jǐn)慎的態(tài)度。<轉(zhuǎn)基因產(chǎn)品是否安全>只有等待時(shí)間來(lái)檢驗(yàn)即只有天知道)”說(shuō)明作者對(duì)“轉(zhuǎn)基因產(chǎn)品”的安全問(wèn)題持懷疑的態(tài)度。

Cultural Center Adds Classes for Young Adults
The Allendale Cultural Center has expanded its arts program to include classes for young adults. Director Leah Martin announced Monday that beginning in September, three new classes will be offered to the Allendale community. The course titles will be Yoga for Teenagers; Hip Hop Dance: Learning the Latest Moves; and Creative Journaling for Teens: Discovering the Writer Within. The latter course will not be held at the Allendale Cultural Center but instead will meet at the Allendale Public Library.
Staff member Tricia Cousins will teach the yoga and hip hop classes. Ms. Cousins is an accomplished choreographer (舞蹈教師) as well as an experienced dance educator. She has an MA in dance education from Teachers College, Columbia University, where she wrote a thesis on the pedagogical (教學(xué)法的) effectiveness of dance education. The journaling class will be taught by Betsy Milford. Ms. Milford is the head librarian at the Allendale Public Library as well as a columnist for the professional journal Library Focus.
The courses are part of the Allendale Cultural Center’s Project Teen, which was initiated by Leah Martin, Director of the Cultural Center. According to Martin, this project is a direct result of her efforts to make the center a more essential part of the Allendale community. Over the last several years, the number of people who have visited the cultural center for classes or events has steadily declined. Project Teen is primarily funded by a generous grant from The McGee Arts Foundation, an organization devoted to bringing arts programs to young adults. Martin oversees the Project Teen board, which consists of five board members. Two board members are students at Allendale’s Brookdale High School; the other three are adults with backgrounds in education and the arts.
The creative journaling class will be cosponsored by Brookdale High School, and students who complete the class will be given the opportunity to publish one of their journal entries in Pulse, Brookdale’s student literary magazine. Students who complete the hip hop class will be eligible to participate in the Allendale Review, an annual concert sponsored by the cultural center that features local actors, musicians, and dancers. All classes are scheduled to begin immediately following school dismissal, and transportation will be available from Brookdale High School to the Allendale Cultural Center and the Allendale Public Library. For more information about Project Teen, contact the cultural center’s programming office at 988-0099 or drop by the office after June 1 to pick up a fall course catalog. The office is located on the third floor of the Allendale Town Hall.

The world’s biggest Internet search engine, Google, has proven once again to be King of the Web. Users can download “Google Wi-Fi” software and then enjoy free Wi-Fi service available in some US cities since last Tuesday.
Wi-Fi is short for “Wireless Fidelity”(無(wú)線上網(wǎng)). It allows laptop computers and personal digital assistants to the Internet at high speed by radio signal.
A person with a Wi-Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the network’s access points. The place covered by one or several access points is called a hotspot. Google has already set up two “hotspots” in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi-Fi service.
The Wi-Fi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone service. Some scientists argue that Wi-Fi may replace mobile phone networks.
Wi-Fi is still limited to a few cities, where there are “hotspots”. But its capability(容量)of sending information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network, even that of 3G(Third Generation Telecommunication Technology). Some scientists have started to call Wi-Fi 4G.
In addition to a high speed Internet connection, Wi-Fi has other advantages compared to mobile phones. Wi-Fi is global. The same Wi-Fi system works in different countries around the world. Different from using cell phones, you don’t need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and most importantly, many Internet phones cost you nothing at all.

A couple of years ago, before a trip to China, Nicole Davis and her US women’s volleyball teammates were warned about the prominence (顯著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping in her native country.
“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I was just trying to put my luggage on the bus,” said Davis.
Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球),Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s. She was a key player on China’s 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.
When the US team arrived for the Olympics, Lang, 48, who is from Beijing, had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.
Then came the greatest moment to Lang：While the US team was playing in a packed gym, at least 8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.
“That really says it all,” Davis said. “They look at her as an icon(偶像). I’m sure it’s hard for them to see her coaching another country, but they love her so dearly that her success is their success.”
The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday, when China lost a match to the US.
“It’s a pity that China lost the match, but I’m still glad that Lang Ping’s team won, since she is the pride of China’s volleyball,” said Liu Chengli, a spectator. “We also cheered for Lang’s victory.”
Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet. “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team. It’s the same.” Lang said.
Davis said she and her teammates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players, said US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.
“It’s such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,” she said. “The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous. The whole event has been unbelievable.”

【小題1】 What’s the passage mainly about?

A．Staying professional.
B．Cheering for the Iron Hammer.
C．A match between China and the US.
D．Lang Ping’s career as a coach.
【小題2】 Lang Ping avoided meeting the reporters and fans probably because she ________.
A．was afraid to be questioned about her strategy
B．didn’t want to be paid much attention to
C．disliked to be with her fans
D．didn’t want to disturb public order
【小題3】What does the underlined word “unfurled” exactly mean?
A．destroyed completelyB．tore into pieces
C．spread out to the windD．rolled up
【小題4】What does Lang Ping mean by saying “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team.”?
A．American Volleyball Team will beat any team.
B．Chinese Volleyball Team is the same as other teams.
C．She just tried to stay professional.
D．The results of each match will be the same.

Chinese media and Internet users on Monday condemned(譴責(zé)) a lack of morals in society after a toddler(學(xué)步的小孩)was struck twice by two different vans and left bleeding on the road as more than a dozen bystanders did nothing to help the seriously injured girl.
The incident, captured by a surveillance camera and aired by Southern Television Guangdong (TVS), showed the two-year-old girl was knocked down and run over by a white van on a narrow market street on the afternoon of Oct. 13, in Foshan City of Guangdong Province.
The driver fled the scene of the accident, leaving the girl to bleed on the sidewalk. Over the next six minutes, more than a dozen people walked by the girl, yet not one individual did anything to help her. The girl was then hit a second time by another van before an elderly trash collector came to her aid and brought the attention of the girl’s mother, according to the video and eyewitnesses.
Doctors said that the girl, who was put on life support after being hospitalized, remains in a deep coma. The girl’s parents, who are migrants living in the city, are now with her. Police said the drivers of both vehicles have been arrested. However, the indifference of the bystanders shown in the video has shocked the public, as Internet forums have boiled with anger, and people are questioning the morality of society.
High moral standards were once triumphed as national pride in China where individuals known for selflessly helping others were adored by the public. But in recent years, the perception of a decline of morals has become a hot topic as profit and materialism are recognized to be affecting society’s values.
On Sept. 2. an 88-year-old man in central China collapsed, his face striking the pavement. Yet, no one came to his aid, and he ended up choking to death on the blood from his nose. Some have linked the absence of good models to a previous case in which a man trying to help an elderly woman who fell was accused of harming her.
A strong chorus of opinion on the Internet says laws should exempt（免除）models from responsibility, yet laws themselves cannot solve society’s morality dilemma.
Cao Lin, a China Youth Daily commentator, said in a signed article published on Monday that the worry of responsibility should not be an excuse for not helping, and this case exposes the decline of humanity in Chinese society.
【小題1】What happened to the two-year-old girl?

A．Nobody helped her after she was struck by two different vans.
B．She died immediately after she was hit a second time.
C．An old trash collector saved her and attracted her mother’s attention.
D．Journalists from TVS captured her story by using a camera.
【小題2】From the passage, what would happen if someone helped others selflessly in the past?
A．The public would feel proud of him/ her and showed love and respect for him/ her.
B．He/she would be awarded by the government.
C．He/she would be condemned by the public.
D．He/she would have to worry about legal responsibility.
【小題3】In recent years, society’s values are believed to be affected by________.
A．people’s awareness
B．the indifference of bystanders
C．profit and materialism
D．the morals of society
【小題4】According to Cao Lin, what is the fundamental reason for not helping the girl?
A．The worry of responsibility.
B．Lack of laws that exempt role models from responsibility.
C．The fear of being accused of harming her.
D．The decline of humanity in society.
【小題5】Where is the article probably taken from?
A．A news report. B．A fashion magazine.
C．A science fiction.D．An education column.

With only a click of the mouse, rumors can be forwarded between microblogs very quickly. As an example, recently, perceptive netizens discovered that some photos displayed on microblogs depicting Beijing’s June rainstorm had actually been fabricated.
Sina.com is one of the major internet portals(門戶網(wǎng)站) in China with hundreds and thousands of users, and a majority of celebrities and renowned citizens have their microblog accounts on this portal. As recently as six months ago, the website decided to establish a specialized team to verify rumors and provide accurate information for its users. Tan Chao is in charge of the team.
“Before I took the job, I usually couldn’t identify what information was real and what was fake. But during the rumor verification process, we discovered that a lot of information was false, including fake photos, fake news stories and rumors that had been spread through microblogs.”
It‘s not just website portals which are taking on fact-checking responsibilities, but also a number of civic-minded netizens, who recently set up a Rumor Verification Federation on Sina.com’s microblog system to help netizens identify fake information online.
　　Dianzizheng is the team leader of the federation. He says they’ve publicized more than 150 pieces which refute rumors, which attracted more than 10 thousand visitors within two months.
　　“We live in an age of new media, so we can’t use the old methods to verify rumors. We can’t wait for the media to verify the facts with related administrative departments and then release a formal announcement. We can’t allow rumors to run rampant and then deal with it, we need to fight rumors while they’re spreading. I think that this is the best way to deal with rumors nowadays.”
　　Some experts say this demonstrates the advantages of the internet compared to other traditional media. The open platform allows information to be examined and clarified by netizens. But experts like Ding Wenguo, President of the Journalism and Communication College at the China University of Political Science and Law says this self-correction function of the internet is still quite limited.
　　“It’s still quite difficult to tell which information is true in such an open environment by just reading a number of different opinions on the same issue. This is something which we need to pay attention to. If society is deluged with too much false information, and it’s allowed to spread in such a fast manner, then people will be suspicious of all kinds of information including important information from authorities. It also exacerbates(惡化) problems relating to social communications and mutual-understanding, which in turn harms society as a whole.”
　　Experts suggest that the government should react more quickly in the internet age. Once a rumor begins to spread, administrative departments should make announcements as early as possible to dispel rumors before they lead to bad outcomes.
【小題1】Sina.com decided to found a specialized team to ____.

A．limit the number of microblogs
B．a(chǎn)dvance the development of microblogs
C．prevent the spread of rumors on the Internet
D．urge the government to react quickly to the rumors
【小題2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A．All the rumors have been spread through microblogs.
B．Sina.com is the most popular Internet portal in China.
C．The photos displayed on microblogs might be fake.
D．Traditional media tend to get rumors examined and clarified.
【小題3】The underlined word "fabricated" in the first paragraph can be replaced by "__". 
A．dug outB．made upC．got roundD．given away
【小題4】What is the best way to prove rumors on microblogs?
A．Examining and checking while they are spreading.
B．Substituting the Internet for traditionally media.
C．Shutting down the website immediately.
D．Making announcements after they are spread.
【小題5】The writer cited Ding Wenguo's words in Paragraph 8 to __. 
A．draw a conclusionB．support an argument
C．introduce a topicD．describe a scene

Wugging, or web-use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user. By using Everyclick.com, which is being added to a number of university computers across the UK, students can raise money every time they search, but it won’t cost them a penny.
Research shows that students are extremely passionate about supporting charity — 88% of full time students have used the Internet to give to charity. This figure is high considering this age group is often the least likely to have their own income. 19% of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than £5,000. With rising personal debt levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings, traditional methods of donating to charity are often not appealing or possible.
Beth Truman, a 21 year old recent university graduate, has used everyclick.com to donate to her chosen charity, the RSPCA, for two years and has seen the “wugging” grow in popularity with students. “When you’re at university you become more socially aware, but it’s sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself,” says Beth. “Wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis to give to charity, without costing them a single penny.”
Wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but don’t feel they have the means to do so. Students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without costing them anything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding.
Everyclick.com works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users can decide which of the UK’s 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks. Everyclick.com then makes monthly payments to every registered charity. Launched in June 2005, Everyclick.com is now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the UK.
【小題1】According to the passage, “wugging” is actually _______.

A．a(chǎn) student movement B．a(chǎn) charity-related action
C．a(chǎn) school organization D．a(chǎn) website
【小題2】In the case of charity, everyclick.com _______.
A．frees students of the financial worries
B．receives much money from students
C．offers valuable information to students
D．praises students for their money-raising
【小題3】What does Beth Truman think of the “wugging” movement?
A．It makes Everyclick.com popular in the UK.
B．It becomes easy to do charity because of it.
C．It results in students’ more social awareness.
D．It helps students to save money.
【小題4】From the passage, we can conclude that _______.
A．most full time students do charity on the Internet every day
B．Everyclick.com helps students pay for the college education
C．“wugging” is a win-win idea for both students and charities
D．Everyclick.com is the most successful search engine in the UK
