All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals. Theres a catch, however. You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week. There are no books or television or radio for amusement. You cant leave until the week is up. And a camera will be recording your every move.Two people actually took the job. The idea came from Rob Thompson, a video artist. He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated. His goal was to raise peoples awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food. He decided to pay $5,000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week. To Robs surprise, quite a few people answered his advertisement. He had interviewed and selected Eric, a 24-year-old restaurant worker, and Para, a 24-year-old chemist. The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide. A camera would record their experiences, which would take place in an art museum. The week was long and difficult. They slept on a hard wooden floor. They couldnt stand up without hanging their heads. They ate vegetables and drank water from a garden hosepipe. Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain. There were no sinks, mirrors, or toothbrushes in the cage. Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage. Visitors who came here were warned, “Do not feed the humans.” Finally it was over, and Para and Eric appeared from their cage. They had survived the week, and they each had a $2,500 check in their hands. When Rob Thompson opened the cage, Eric came out, changed into clean clothes, and ate a chocolate bar right away. “Its great to be able to stand up,” he said. Para just changed her clothes and left. After a week of visitors and reporters watching her, she didnt want to talk to anyone.61. What kind of person is Rob Thompson? A. He is curious about peoples personal life. B. He is kind-hearted to animals. C. He hates people around. D. He likes to help poor people.62. The underlined word “catch” probably means_.

A. Easy Way to Earn $2,500 B. Do Not Feed the Humans C. Living Like a Chicken D. Getting Along Well AnywayBThis is a time of year when we think about giving and receiving presents.

The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think its an approach that isnt going to work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation(立法) can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”However, the efforts to regulate models weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.Still, folks including Ice say theres no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I dont believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “Its a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”69. One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is _.A. to change the working conditions of modelsB. to lower the chance of skinny models deathC. to provide guidance for women worshiping thinnessD. to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders70. In the opinion of the critics, the law wont succeed because.A. it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.B. it doesnt provide a proper approach that can work well.C. it doesnt create a healthy working environment for models.D. the fashion industry is much too influential.71. What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?A. Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.B. Establishing his fashion model agent.C. Being interviewed by a reporter.D. Seeing a model die from eating disorders.72. According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is.A. practical B. controversial C. acceptable D. ReasonableDKING LEARPart 3NARRATOR: As soon as Goneril has got all she can from her father, she begins treating him disrespectfully. When Lear wants to speak to her, Goneril tells her servant, Oswald, to say she is sick. She encourages her staff to be disrespectful towards Lear and begins plaining about the hundred soldiers Lear has brought with him. However, King Lear soon has a friend by his side. The Duke of Kent, who Lear ordered to leave Britain, cannot abandon his king. He therefore es to Lear disguised as a servant called Caius and asks for a job.(Enter Lear, several of Lears soldiers and Kent disguised as a servant.)LEAR: OK, Caius. Ill give you a trial.
