The study found that cigarette smoking among American teenagers dropped during t he past years. The drop continues a general decrease in teenager smoking rates that started in 1996.American health officials praised the decrease as good news in the nations battle against smoking. They note that smoking remains the leading cause of preventable death and disease. Smoking rates among American teenagers increased in the first half of the 1990s. However, teenage smoking rates have been decreasing in recent years. The University of Michigans Institute for Social Research supervised the latest study. The Department of Health and Human Services reported the findings. The study involved more than forty-four-thousand students in more than four-hundred schools across the United States. They were asked about past and daily use of tobacco, alcohol and illegal drugs. The youngest students questioned were thirteen years old. The study also involved fifteen-year-old students and seventeen-year-olds. The most notable change in the study was a continuation of the decrease in cigarette use among thirteen and fifteen-year-olds. For example, about twelve percent of thirteen-year-old students questioned reported smoking at least one cigarette during the past month. Six years ago, the rate was twenty-one percent. Among fifteen-year-olds, the rate dropped from thirty percent in 1996 to twenty-one percent last year. Tommy Thompson is the secretary of Health and Human Services. He praised the findings. He said more teenagers are making correct choices that will help them avoid health problems caused by tobacco. The study found that use of alcoholic drinks and illegal drugs among American teenagers remained the same or dropped during the past year. However, the use of one illegal drug known as Ecstasy continued to increase. Yet the rate of increase was not as great as in recent years. American health officials said they will continue to give teenagers scientific information about the serious health risks of Ecstasy and other illegal drugs. The goal is to further reduce the use of these drugs. 61.

America has done a lot to help the teenagers keep off the drugsB. the use of illegal drugs among teenagers has dropped greatlyC. the study was carried out by the Department of Health and Human ServicesD. the teenager smoking rate dropped by 21 percent in recent yearsCTo be a good teacher, you need some of the talents of a good actor: you must be able to hold attention and interest of your students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.A good teacher doesnt sit still before his class; he stands all the time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express his feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his playthey ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience. He cant learn his part by heart, because their brains couldnt keep discipline: they couldnt keep strictly to what another has written. 66. If you want to be a good teacher, you should .A. act out what you have learnt strictlyB. be a good actor on the stageC. sit all the time while teaching D. suit the need of different students67. The underlined word talents in the first paragraph means .A. methodsB. giftsC. wishesD. interests68. In what way is a teachers work different from that of an actors?A. The teacher must learn everything by heart.B. He has to deal with unexpected situations.C. He has to use more facial expressions.D. He has to control his voice better than an actor.69. The main difference between students and audience in the theatre is that students .A. move around the classB. keep silent all the timeC. take an active part in classD. like body language70. If Tom Hanks, the famous actor, would like to be a good teacher, he may need training in .A. how to use body languageB. how to repeat his linesC. how to be more quick mindedD. how to be attractiveDThe United States is already one year into a depression. That was the news this week from the National Bureau of Economic Research. The downturn is the longest since a depression that began in 1981 and lasted sixteen months.Economists generally wait for production to shrink for six months in a row before they declare a recession. But the bureau, a private group, uses a wider set of information to measure the economy. The news only confirmed what many people already knew: that the worlds largest economy is weak and may not recover soon.Worsening conditions have led to a big drop in spending, especially on costly products like new cars. Even Japanese automaker Toyota saw its sales fall thirty-four percent in the United States in November from a year ago.The heads of Chrysler, Ford and General Motors returned to Congress this week to again ask for federal aid. Congressional leaders denounced(指责) them two weeks ago after they came in private jets with no clear plans for saving their industry. This time, the chiefs drove to Washington in fuel-saving hybrid vehicles. And their companies presented detailed restructuring plans. The request for aid has risen from twenty-five billion dollars two weeks ago to thirty-four billion in loans and credit lines.G.M. wants almost half of that, and says it needs four billion dollars this month. It warned that without support it cannot continue to operate.Ford is in a better position. But the sharing of suppliers means it could be affected if G.M. or Chrysler fails. Ford is asking for a nine billion dollar credit line in case it needs it.Chrysler is the smallest and most troubled of Americas Big Three. It says it needs a seven billion dollar loan by the end of the month.Two days of congressional hearings began Thurs
