Are you a social butterfly, or do you prefer being at the edge of a group of friends? Either way, your genes and evolution may play a major  1  , US researchers reported on Monday.

A child's birthday party doesn't have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months.

  "Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement. But it really doesn't have to be that way," said Anaclerio. Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Garlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year-old, founded a home party-planning business called "A Party in a Basket." Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.

  Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created(制作)10 ready-to-use, home party packages. Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.

  "Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10."Anaclerio said, "and they're very interactive(互動)and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject. For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations."

  The standard $200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.

72. The main purpose of writing this text is ____.

  A. to share information about party planning

  B. to introduce the joys of a birthday party

  C. to announce a business plan

  D. to sell a service

73. The most important idea behind the kind of party planning described here is that ____.

  A. it brings parents and children closer together

  B. guests play a part in the preparation of a party

  C. parents are spared the trouble of sending invitations

  D. it provides a subject of conversation

74. What does the underlined word "hassle"(Paragraph 1) probably mean?

  A. a party designed by specialists

  B. a plan requiring careful thought

  C. a situation causing difficulty or trouble

  D. a demand made by guests

75. Which of the following is most likely to be a party planner?

    Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport.” Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.

   The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led along way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins (血管). They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate (刺激) a desire to own a gun. Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild land habitat (棲息地). Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.

     Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.

     Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human-character, then perhaps we should encourage war.

72. According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting because___________.

       A. they have little knowledge of it               B. it helps to build human character

       C. it is too costly to stop killing wildlife   D. they want to keep wildlife under control

73. The underlined word "agony" in the last paragraph probably means______________.

      A. form               B. Condition        C. pain         D. sadness

74. According to the text, the films children watch at school actually__________.

      A. teach them how to deal with guns safely        B. praise hunting as character-building

     C. describe hunting as an exercise            D. encourage them to have guns of their own                                                                                                                                          75. It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to_____________.

       A. blame the majority of people        B. worry about the existence of wildlife

       C. be in favour of war               D. be in support of character-building

Since many of you are planning to study at a college or university in this country, you may be curious to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so on. These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.

First, let’s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it’s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn’t enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.

If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you’ll also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do.

59. The main purpose of this text is       .

A. to help the students to learn about university life

B. to persuade the students to attend lectures

C. to encourage the students to take part in discussions

D. to advise the students to choose proper majors

60. We can learn from the passage that university professors       .

A. spend about 5 hours on lectures each week

B. must join the students in the discussion sections

C. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures

D. require the students to read beyond the textbooks

61. A discussion section does NOT include       .

A. working under the guidance of university professors

B. talking over what the students have read about the courses

C. discussing the problems related to the students’ homework

D. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture

62. According to the author, science majors       .

A. have to work harder than non science majors

B. spend less time on their studies than non science majors

C. consider experiments more important than discussions

D. read and write less than non science majors

Shanghai:       Car rentals(出租) are becoming more and more popular as an inexpensive way of taking to the roads. Business people, foreigners and families alike are making good use of the growing industry.

The first car rental firm opened in Shanghai in 1992 and now 12 car rental players are in the game, with more than 11,500 cars in their books.
