The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.

But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 　71 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes. For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” if the answer is no, rewrite and reread.　 　72　

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 　73 　 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

74 Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 　75 　 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

A. It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

B. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

C. Everyone was new to the network once.

D. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.

F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.

G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.

An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.

In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (發(fā)起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.

In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.

   The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.

Ultimately Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.

67. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?

A. To invite authors to guide readers.

B. To encourage people to read and share.

C. To involve people in community service.

D. To promote the friendship between cities.

68. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?

A. In large communities with little sense of unity.

B. In large cities where libraries are far from home.

C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.

D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.

69. The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean_________.     

A. exchanged ideas with each other

B. discussed the meaning of a word

C. gained life experience

D. used the same language

70. According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by_________.

A. the careful selection of a proper book

B. the growing popularity of the writers

C. the number of people who benefit from reading.

D. the number of books that each person reads.

Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient —no matter where he or she may be.

Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis(遠(yuǎn)程診斷) will be based on real physiological data(生理數(shù)據(jù)) from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly practical to send a patient’s important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.

Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural (countryside) care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need—especially after earthquakes. On the whole, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts’ opinions.

But there is one problem. Bandwidth(寬帶) is the limiting factor for sending complex medical pictures around the world — CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites may be able to deal with the short-term needs during disasters, such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third-generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.

Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, experts’ opinions and diagnosis are common.

63. The writer chiefly talks about _______.

　 A. the use of telemedicine　　　　　　 B. the on-lined doctors

C. medical care and treatment　　　　　 D. communication improvement

64. The basis of remote diagnosis will be _______.

A. personal data assistance

B. some words of a patient

　 C. real physiological information

D. medical pictures from the Internet

65. Which of the following statements is true according to the text？

　 A. Patients don’t need doctors in hospitals any more.

　 B. It is impossible to send a patient’s signs over the telephone.

C. Many teams use telemedicine dealing with disasters now.

D. Broadband communications will become cheaper in the future.

66. The “problem” in the fourth paragraph refers to the fact that _______.

　 A. bandwidth isn’t big enough to send complex medical pictures

　 B. the second-generation of Internet has not become popular yet

　 C. communication satellites can only deal with short-term needs

D. there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care

Three months ago, Mariza Castro left Honduras. Today, she is in the United States and she has a job. Castro works behind the counter at McDonald’s. Speed is an important part of her work life. Fast-food counter workers are expected to serve customers in less than a minute. At McDonald’s they say, “Work fast or you don’t last.”

Are McDonald’s workers lucky to have their jobs? Or are they being exploited? The answer depends on who you talk to.

McDonald’s does many good things. For example, no other company hires more young people than McDonald’s. More than half of its workers are under 20 years old. McDonald’s also has a good record of hiring minority workers. Thirteen percent of its workers are black. This is better than any other US company.

But the burger house has its critics as well. The pay bothered Edward Rodriguez. He had worked for nearly a year at a Los Angeles McDonald’s. During that time he got only one 10-cent raise. “I used to joke that working for McDonald’s is the closest thing to slave labour in the US today,” he says. Today, most McDonald’s pay about $ 5 an hour. They hire new workers constantly. The restaurant has no other choice because 70 percent of its workers quit or are fired every year.

    But McDonald’s also gets its share of praise. Its best workers move up quickly. Just talk to 17-year-old Amber Abdur-Razaaq of Harlem, New York City. “They call me ‘Young Crew Chief’ around my block,” he says, “Where else can I go at my age and be in charge of this many people?” He sees that job as the first step in his career.

However, most McDonald’s crew members never make it to manager because the job pressure is so intense, and the rewards so few. As one worker put it, “They expect a lot and they don’t pay you much.”

59. What does the sentence “Work fast or you don’t last.” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. You just work fast and at last you’ll get raised.

B. You’ll be fired if you don’t work fast at McDonald’s.

C. You have to work fast to avoid becoming the last one.

D. If you work fast, you can stay at McDonald’s for ever.

60.Edward Rodriguez said working at McDonald’s is like slave labour because he thought____.

A. he was not as free as slaves

B. he worked too long hours like slave

C. he was not paid enough for what he was doing

D. he was working so hard without getting anything

61. Which of the following statements is NOT in favor of McDonald’s?

A. It hires new workers constantly.

B. It offers more young people opportunities.

C. It promotes the best employees, young as they are.

D. It respects colored people more than other companies.

62. What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Lucky to Have a Job at McDonald’s

B. Work Fast or you Don’t Last

C. Young People’s Paradise---McDonald’s

D. McDonald’s---Heaven or Hell

My grandfather came from Hungary and was the only one in his family who settled down in the United States. The rest of his family remained in Europe. When World War I broke out, he seemed to have become another man, downhearted. Such obvious change was not born out of concern for his welfare, but out of fear: if his only son, my uncle, had to go to war, it would be cousin fighting against cousin.

One day in 1918, my Uncle Milton received his draft notice. My grandparents were very upset. But my mother, at the age of 10, felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off to war. Realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends, my uncle bought them all service pins, which meant that they had a loved one in the service. All the little girls were delighted.

The moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers, without any training but all in uniforms, boarded the train. The band played and the crowd cheered. Although no one noticed, I’m sure my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son. The train slowly pulled out, but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused. Everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station. There was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out. Someone shouted, “The war is over!” For a moment, nobody moved, but then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers. The men lined up in two lines, walked down the steps, and with the band playing, marched down the street, as returning heroes, to be welcomed home. My mother said it was a great day, but she was just a little disappointed that it didn’t last a tiny bit longer

56. What the grandfather was most worried about was ______ .

A. the spread of the world war                       B. the safety of his two cousins

　 My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.

　 I tried as hard as I could to remain 36　 , but I had an empty feeling in my stomach. I stared down at my sweat-covered, 37　 hands.

　 I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were 　38 people. They were not just my mum and dad, who 　39 say, "Good job!" even if I messed up the entire piece.

　 What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?

　 As it 　40 , I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight was 　41 for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.

　 Slowly I walked to the mulberry piano in the 42 of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played．I swallowed the golfball-sized lump（隆起的） in my throat and sat down. 43 , I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory keys.

　 As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more 　44 of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my year of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece 　45 that I could play it backwards if 　46 .

　 There was no　 48　 that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this promise to myself, I leaned　 49 and focused carefully on the music.　 50 1 came to the end of the page, a warning 　51 inside my head: DON' T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!
