Every year, almost 2 million Americans are injured while they're  21  work every day, 240 are killed on the job. The   22   job is cutting down trees. Being a policeman is safer than many jobs, including driving a truck, collecting garbage and   23  airplanes. One of the safest jobs is being a librarian.

    The government inspects(檢查) most factories and offices.  24  have to   25    fines(罰款) if their factories or offices are unsafe. In California, employers often go to prison if one of their workers is  26   because a factory didn't  27  safety measures. But President Bush cut down the number of government inspectors(檢查員)  28  15 percent.   29  , many people say working is less safe now.

    For women workers, the greatest danger so far is murder. Forty--two percent of all  30  who died at work were killed. Many of them work  31  clerks in stores   32  they are alone at night. Experts say they can protect themselves by putting the cash desk in full   33   .

     The numbers of deaths and accidents at work don't take into  34  people who become sick from   35    that they are exposed to （暴露）at work. Doctors don't know   36  some chemicals cause illness.There are no government rules for many new chemicals.

     Inspectors say employers  37  their backs on safety problems because they don't want to pay the bill for fixing them. They also say some workers don't want to complain about dangers because they may  38  their jobs.

     The government should force business to improve safety. There's no   39  for workers dying or  40  in an accident that could have been prevented.

Wind is the movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure. In fact, wind exists because the sun unequally heats the surface of the Earth. As hot air rises, cooler air moves in to fill the gap. As long as the sun shines, the wind will blow. And as long as the wind blows, people will manage it to power their lives.

Ancient sailors used sails to capture the wind and explore the world. Farmers once used windmills to grind their grains and pump water. Today, more and more people are using wind turbines to make electricity from the breeze. Over the past decade, wind turbine use has increased at more than 25 percent a year. Still, it only provides a small part of the world's energy.

Most wind energy comes from turbines that can be as tall as a 20-story building and have three 200-foot-long (60-meter-long) blades. These devices look like giant airplane propellers(螺槳)on a stick. The wind spins the blades, which turn a shaft connected to a generator.

The biggest wind turbines generate enough electricity to supply about 600 U.S. homes. Wind farms have tens and sometimes hundreds of these turbines lined up together in particularly windy spots, like along a ridge. Smaller turbines set up in a backyard can produce enough electricity for a single home or small business.

Wind is a clean source of renewable energy that produces no air or water pollution. And since the wind is free, operational costs are nearly zero once a turbine is erected. Mass production and technology advances are making turbines cheaper, and many governments decrease tax to encourage wind-energy development.

Some people think wind turbines are ugly and complain about the noise the machines make. The slowly rotating blades(螺旋風(fēng)片) can also kill birds and bats, but not nearly as many as cars, power lines, and high-rise buildings do. The wind is also changeable: If it's not blowing, there's no electricity generated.

Nevertheless, the wind energy industry is increasing sharply. Globally, generation more than quadrupled(四倍) between 2000 and 2006. At the end of last year, global capacity was more than 70,000 megawatts. In the energy-hungry United States, a single megawatt is enough electricity to power about 250 homes. Germany has the most installed wind energy capacity, followed by Spain, the United States, India, and Denmark. Development is also fast growing in France and China.

Industry experts predict that if this pace of growth continues, by 2050 the answer to one third of the world's electricity needs will be found blowing in the wind

63. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

A. The rotating blades can kill as many birds as high-rise buildings do

B. Single families are not encouraged to build turbines.

C. The USA produces more wind power than any other country in the world.

D. The noise the turbines make may discourage people from building them.

64. The underlined word “generator” in the third paragraph probably means_______.

A. 電動機(jī)                        B. 發(fā)電機(jī)                          C. 機(jī)翼                               D. 飛機(jī)引擎

65. If the USA wants to build wind turbines in an area with 30,000 homes, how many

should they build at least?

A. 50.                                    B. 150.                                 C. 250.                                 D. 200.

66. All the following are the advantages of wind energy EXCEPT that_________.

         A. it is environmentally friendly                                   B. it is free to build and operate

         C. the government supports it                                              D. the energy is clean and renewable

Many parents find that their children act very mean to their friends．They wonder what they can do about this behavior without squashing their spirit．Here is what parenting experts explain and suggest：

Pre-schoolers have no idea how others feel．They are in the process of understanding their own feelings and have not yet developed “emotional intelligence”．Children of this age also do things just because it can make them feel powerful when they are able to make others respond．

Here are some things you can do to reduce the mean talk：When the child’s in a good mood, look her in the eyes and lovingly tell her how you feel when she speaks in a mean way to another child．Have a look of disappointment on your face and role-play with her to show her the behavior you would like to see．Then, every time you see her demonstrating the “nice” interaction with others, stop what you’re doing, give her eye contact and make a big deal out of it．Young children need to know what good behavior looks like with regular encouragement．When you catch her being mean to a child, get down on your knees next to her, and, with your arm around her, face the child that is receiving her meanness, and apologize to the child for both of you, then walk away．As soon as the other child is away, let your daughter know how disappointed you are in her behavior and quickly let it go．

Parents should set up a consequence when this negative behavior occurs．You can give these other ideas a try first．If you’re not seeing any results after a few times, then go ahead and set up the consequence (such as not being able to play with that child)．Avoid using “time out” because it doesn’t work．It gives the child too much power and too much attention．The most effective consequences are those that are directly tied to the behavior．If she is being mean to children, then the play session ends．And most importantly, set up this consequence in advance when the negative behavior is NOT occurring．

If you should catch her being a “bully” to another child, and she has somehow hurt him or her, immediately put all your attention on the victim, not her．Don’t scold or punish your daughter．Softly, gently, and immediately, nurture the hurt child and get your daughter to assist you in the nurturing．When things have calmed down, let her know face to face how disappointed you are in her behavior, not her as a child．

68．When a child talks mean to his friend, the best way to correct it is to ________．

A．tell him directly that it is a wrong doing             B．demonstrate what a good behavior is

C．make him apologize to his friend                         D．a(chǎn)sk his friend not to play with him any more

69．The underlined phrase “make a big deal out of it” in paragraph 3 probably means ________．

A．show some disappointment                                  B．say a few words of praise

C．exchange gifts with the child                                D．present a surprised look

70．When dealing with a child’s mean action, you shouldn’t _______．

A．punish her in the presence of her friend            B．put on a disappointed look on your face

C．tell her that you are unhappy to see that          D．nurture the hurt child immediately

71．The passage is mainly about how to _______．

A．bring up children                                                       B．solve pre-school children’s problems

C．help children make friends                                     D．guide children when bad behaviors occur
