  Russian President Putin named Time magazine’s“Person of the Year”

  Russian President Vladimir Putin was named Time magazine’s“Person of the Year”on December 19th.2007 for strengthening stability(穩(wěn)定)that made Russia a world power again.

  The magazine recognized Putin’s“extraordinary feat(技藝)of leadership in taking a country that was in a mess and bringing it stability,”said Richard Stengel,Time’s managing editor.

  The magazine noted that“Person of the Year”is not an honor or an endorsement(認(rèn)可)but a recognition of leadership that shapes the world.

  Putin,who is 56 years old,is very popular in Russia,making a great effort to cause economy to come to life on revenue(收入)from oil and natural gas.

  Putin recently supported vice-PM Dmitry Medvedev’s presidential bid,and said he would accept Medvedev’s offer to serve as prime minister if Medvedev is elected on March 2.

  The Kremlin said Wednesday the Time recognition was seen there as an acknowledgement of Putin’s role in helping Russia pull out of its social and economic troubles in the 1990s.

  Others considered for“Person of the Year”included Nobel Prize-winner Al Gore and author J.K. Rowling.

  This year’s choice was a return to the magazine’s tradition of picking an individual rather than last year’s choice of“You”,which refers to anyone creating or using content on the World Wide Web.

  Putin is the fifth Russian(or Soviet)leader to be named Person of the Year:Gorbachev,Andropov,Khrushchev and Stalin,who was named twice.

55.How did Putin try to make Russia a world power again?

A.By performing arms race.

B.By making war.

C.By strengthening stability.

D.By getting foreign help.

56.Which of the following is Not True according to the passage?

A.Russia used to be in a mess.

B.Time always picks an individual to be the“Person of the Year”.

C.Oil and natural gas caused Russia’s economy to come to life.

D.Putin will leave office on March 2,2007.

57.What does the underlined word“acknowledgement”mean?

A.Praise.            B.Support.

C.Scold.             D.Recognition.

58.How many times have Russian leaders been named“Person of the Year”so far?

A.Five times.          B.Six times.

C.Seven times.          D.Eight times.

A gadget which makes water out of air could become the greatest househo1d invention since the microwave.

Using the same technology as a dehumidifier(除濕器),the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water because it can always get it from an unlimited source—the air.

The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in

developed countries, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage.

The machine works by drawing in wet air through a filter(過濾器)and over a cooling instrument which changes it into water droplets.It can produce up to 1 2 liters a day.The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over, as the amount of water which is contained in the air increases. In keeping with its eco-development, the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three lights.

Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said: “The demand for water is off the chart. So people are looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable.”

The machine, which is about 3 feet wide, is likely to cost £800 when it goes on sale here in the spring. Its maker, Canadian Firm Element Four, roughly calculates that a litre of water cost around 20p to produce.

Environmentalists state that half the world’s population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080. One in five is said to lack access to safe drinking.

The Water Mill is not effective in areas where the amount of water contained in the air is below about 30 percent, but in Britain that won’t be much of a problem.

63.What does the underlined word “it” refer do?

       A.Drinking water.       B.Invention. C.Microwave.      D.Water Mill.

64.What do we learn about the machine?

       A.It works in the same way as microwaves.

       B.It is very expensive for families to afford.

       C.It absorbs steam and turns it into water.

       D.It helps to make the water clean to drink.

65.What does the passage lead us to believe?

       A.The cost of water will go up.  B.Bottled water will disappear sooner.

       C.The machine is energy saving. D.The machine will be popular worldwide.

66.What’s the best title for the passage?

       A.A New Way to Solve Water Problem.    B.A Machine to Make Water out of Air.

       C.A Dehumidifier to Produce Water.      D.An Absolutely New Invention

第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

  When Paul was a boy growing up in Utah,he happened to live near a copper smelter(煉銅廠),and the chemicals that poured out had made a wasteland out of what used to he a beautiful forest. One day a young visitor looked at this wasteland and called it an awful area. Paul knocked him down. From then on,something happened inside him.

  Years later Paul was back in the area,and he went to the smelter office. He asked if they had any plans or if they would let him try to bring the trees back. The answer from that big industry was“No”.

  Paul then went to college to study the science of plants. Unfortunately,his teachers said there weren't any birds or squirrels to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that,he was told. Even if he was knowledgeable as he had expected,he wouldn’t get his idea accepted.

  Paul later got married and had some kids. But his dream would not die. And then one night he did what he could with what he had. As Samuel Johnson wrote,“It is common to overlook what is near by keeping the eye fixed on something remote. Attainable good is often ignored by minds busied in wide ranges.”Under the cover of darkness,he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.

  And every week,he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. For fifteen years he did this against the plain common sense. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later,as there was legal pressure to clean up the environment,the company actually hired Paul to do what he was already doing.

  Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass and bushes,and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned white,but he managed to keep that impossible vow he made to himself as a child.

51.When Paul was a boy,______________.

A.he had decided never to leave his hometown

B.the economy of Utah depended wholly on the copper smelter

C.no laws were made to protect the environment against pollution

D.he had determined to stop the copper smelter polluting the area

52.Why did Paul go to college to study the science of plants?

A.Because he wanted to find out the best way to save the area himself.

B.Because he was interested in planting trees since he was young.

C.Because he wanted to get more knowledgeable people to help him.

D.Because he thought his knowledge would make his advice more persuasive.

53.What does the underlined phrase“the plain common sense”probably refer to?

A.That it was impossible for trees to grow on the wasteland.

B.That his normal work and life would be greatly affected.

C.That no one would like to join him in the efforts.

D.That he had to keep everything he did secret.

54.The message of the passage is that _____________.

A.a(chǎn)ction speaks louder than words

B.perseverance(持之以恒)will work wonders

C.God helps those who help themselves

D.many hands make light work
