Let us take a 36 , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a(an) 37 were accepted.Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction(分散注意力) of TV, they might 38 together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our 39 -everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of 40 illness -are caused at least in part by 41 to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to 42 our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better. On evenings when such talk is 43 , families could discover more active pastimes(娱乐). Freed from TV and forced to find their own activities, they might take a 44 together to watch the sunset 45 they might take a walk together. 46 free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading. There is more entertainment in 47 than in a TV program. 48 report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence, 49 at the college level. 50 is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour. A different form of reading might also be done 51 it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the 52 ends, the TV networks might be forced to 53 with better shows in order to get us back from our newly- discovered activities.At first glance, this idea seems radical(激进的). 54 will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can 55 childhoods without television.

Researchers have studied each of her messages to the Commonwealth countries since 1952 to find out the change in her pronunciation from the noble Upper Received to the Standard Received.Jonathan Harrington, a professor at Germanys University of Munich, wanted to discover whether accent changes recorded over the past half century would take place within one person. “As far as I know, there just is nobody else for whom there is this sort of broadcast records,” he said.He said the noble way of pronouncing vowels(元音) had gradually lost ground as the noble upper-class accent over the past years. “Her accent sounds slightly less noble than it did 50 years ago. But these are very, very small and slow changes that we dont notice from year to year.”“We may be able to relate it to changes in the social classes,” he told The Daily Telegraph, a British newspaper. “In 1952 she would have been heard saying thet men in the bleck het. Now it would be that man in the black hat. Similarly, she would have spoken of the citay anddutay, rather than citee and dutee, and hame rather than home. In the 1950s she would have been lorst, but by the 1970s lost.”The Queens broadcast is a personal message to the Commonwealth countries. Each Christmas, the 10-minute broadcast is put on TV at 3 pm in Britain as many families are recovering from their traditional turkey lunch(传统火鸡午餐).The results were published(发表) in the Journal of Phonetics.56.The Queens broadcasts were chosen for the study mainly because .A. she has been Queen for many yearsB. she has a less upper-class accent nowC. her speeches have been recorded for 50 years D. her speeches are familiar to many people57.Which of the following is an example of a less noble accent in English?A. “Dutay”.B. “Hame”.C. “Citee”.D. “Lorst”.58.We may infer from the text that the Journal of Phonetics is a magazine on .A. Christmas customsB. speech soundsC.TV broadcasting D. personal messages59.What is the text mainly about?A. The changes in a persons accent.B. The Queens Christmas speeches on TV.C. The relationship between accents and social classes.D. The recent development of the English language.BA sixth of undergraduates in Beijing this year have registered at driving school. The students, mostly from majors such as business management or international trade, will finish their driving courses within 20 days or so.Training costs have dropped to 2, 600 yuan for students, according to the Haidian Driving School in Beijing. The price is not really low, but students will accept it, seeing it as an investment (投资)in their future. Familiarity with the operation of computers and fluent English are the basic skills graduating students need to find a job. But a drivers permit has become another factor.“In the job market, owning a drivers permit sometimes strengthens a graduating students competitiveness for a good position, ”says Zhou Yang, an undergraduate at the China University of Political Science and Law.Cars will become a necessary part of many peoples lives in the coming years, and it is difficult to get a permit out of campus because of the pressures on working peoples time. “Having a fulltime job after graduation offers limited time to learn to drive. We senior students have plenty of spare time, plenty of opportunity to learn. ”Zhou says.Xu Jian, an official at the driving school, said undergraduates were very able and serious, and could grasp in an hour what ordinary people took four hours to learn. In this driving school, middle-aged people, young women and college students are the main customers.To get a drivers permit, a beginner is now required to have at least 86 hourspractice before the final road test.60The undergraduates are learning to drive because _.A. they like to drive carsB. they need this skill to find a good jobC. they will not have any time to learn to drive after they have found a full-time jobD. most of them will be able to buy cars in the future61Which of the following is likely to be Xu Jians opinion of students learning to drive?A. It is better to learn it at college than at work.B. Young people have an advantage in learning to drive.C. It is a waste of money and time to learn to drive.D. They will spend three times more time to learn to drive than usual.62Which of the following can be the best headline for the passage?A. Students Learn to Drive.B. Students Pay Less to Learn to Drive Now.C. It is Better to Learn to Drive at Colleges.D. Welcome to the Driving School.CNo budget for your vacation? Try home exchanges - swapping houses with strangers. Agree to use each others cars, and you can save dollars on car rentals (租赁费), too.Home exchanges are not new. At least one group, Intervac, has been facilitating such an arrangement since 1953. But trading online is gaining popularity these days, with several sites in operation, including Home Exchanges. Founded in 1992, with some 28,000 listings, this company bills itself as the worlds largest home exchange club, reporting that membership has increased 30% this year. The annual fee is usually less than US$100. Members can access thousands of listings for apartments, villas, suburban homes and farms around the world. Initial contact is made via e-mail, with subsequent communication usually by phone. Before a match is made, potential swappers tend to discuss a lot. However, the concept may sound risky to some people. What about theft? Damage? These are reasonable causes for concern, but equally unlikely. As one swapper puts it, “Nobody is going to fly across the ocean or drive 600 miles to come steal your TV. Besides, at the same time theyre staying in your home, you are staying in their home.” Exchange sites recommend that swappers discuss such matters ahead of time. They may fill out an agreement spelling out who shoulders which responsibilities if a problem arises. It does not matter if the agreement would hold up in court, but it does give the exchangers a little satisfaction. Generally, the biggest complaint among home exchangers has to do with different standards of cleanliness. Swappers are supposed to make sure their home is in order before they depart, but one persons idea of “clean” may be more forgiving than anothers. Some owners say if they come back to a less-than-sparkling kitchen, it may be inconvenient but would not sour them on future exchanges.63What is the second paragraph mainly about? ks5uAHow to exchange homes.BThe biggest home exchange agency Intervac.CThe fact that home exchanges are not new.DA contrast between Intervac and Home Exchanges.64How do home exchangers normally begin their communication?ABy phone.BVia a matchmaker. C By e-mail. DVia a face-to-face meeting.65What is recommended in the passage to deal with the concerns about theft and damage?AOne can file a lawsuit in court.BBoth parties can trade online. COne can damage the home of the other party in return.DBoth parties can sign an agreement beforehand. ks5uDDoctors in Britain are warning of an obesity time bomb, when children who are already overweight grow up. So, what should we do? Exercise more? Eat less? Or both? The government feels it has to take responsibility for this expanding problem.The cheerful Mr. Pickwick, the hero of the novel by Charles Dickens, is seen in illustrations as someone who is plump and happy. In 18th century paintings, beauty is equated (使等同) with rounded bodies and soft curves. But nowadays being overweight is seen as indicating neither a cheerful character nor beauty but an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.So what do you do? Diet? Not according to Englands chief medical officer, Sir Liam Donaldson. He says that physical activity is the key for reducing the risks of obesity, cancer and heart disease. And the Health Secretary John Reid even said that being inactive is as serious a risk factor in heart disease as smoking.So, having bought some cross trainers, how much exercise should you do? According to Sir Liam Donaldson, at least 30 minutes of moderate activity five days a week. Is going to the gym the answer? Luckily for those who think that running machines are boring, the Health Development Agency believes that physical activity that fits into peoples lives may be more effective. They suggest taking the stairs rather than the lift, walking up escalators, playing active games with your children, dancing or gardening. And according to a sports psychologist, Professor Biddle, gyms are not making the nation fit, and may even cause harm.Theres new scientific evidence that too much exercise may actually be bad for you. Scientists at the University of Ulster have found that unsuitable exercise releases dangerous free radicals that can adversely (oppositely) affect normal function in unfit people. The only people who should push their bodies to that level of exercise on a regular basis are trained athletes.So, should we forget about gyms and follow some experts advice to reduce sedentary (久坐不动的) activities and increase exercise in our daily life? After all, getting off the bus a stop early and walking the rest of the way cant do any harm! One final thought. How come past generations lacked gym facilities but were leaner and fitter than people today? ks5u66. Mr.Pickwick and the paintings of the 18m century are used as examples to show that_.A. beauty should be overweightB. a fat man is usually a cheerful character C. fatness was considered something good at one timeD. fatness leads to an increased risk of disease67. According to Sir Liam Donaldson, we should_.A. go on a diet B. do regular physical activityC. give up smoking D. go to the gym68. The underlined phrase cross trainers probably refers to _.A. people who help you do exercise B. places where you can do exerciseC. a kind of shoes D. a form of vehicles69. At present being overweight indicates _.A. an increased risk of diseases B. a happier lifeC. a cheerful character D. a beauty70. What is the passage mainly about?A. how to keep fit and avoid fatness.B. increased risks for overweight people.C. the dangers of exercise in the gym.D. the benefit of a balanced diet.EWith only a click of the mouse, rumors can be forwarded between microblogs very quickly. As an example, recently, perceptive netizens discovered that some photos displayed on microblogs depicting Beijing
