A
There was a lake near a forest in Sweden. The water in the lake was very clear and everything is quiet and still. On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away, across the field, is an old church built on a hill. It has just stopped raining. The brook（小河）flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted（半融化）snow from last winter on the ground.
The reason why the water is so clear, and everything is so quiet and still, is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead. There are no birds because all the fish and insects, which the birds need for food, have disappeared. Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark（树皮）, sick and dying. Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter. A farmer is working in a field planting something, but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year, the crop will be between 25 to 40 percent lower than a few years ago. The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon, it will fall down.
All the death and destruction in this place are caused by the smoke out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks. And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway.
56. Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake
A．Because the area is polluted. B．Because the lake is quiet.
C．Because the weather is terribly cold. D．Because they have all been killed.
57. Why does the farmer have to plant a stronger kind of seed
A．Because few plant life can stand the weather there.
B．Because the soil becomes less and less.
C．Because the soil there is becoming unfit for farming.
D．Because the water in the lake can’t be used to irrigate the field.
58. The underlined word “destruction” in the passage means _______.
A．being destroyed B．being developed
C．being produced D．being protected
59. What do you think is the best title for the passage
A．A Beautiful Place of Interest. B．A Faraway Mountain Area.
C．A Polluted Place. D．A Quiet Place In Sweden.
B
Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the sea to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work. One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down at the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up. As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean. As he got closer, he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing ’’
The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfishes（海星）in the ocean.”
“I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfishes in the ocean ”
“The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in, they’ll die”
“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfishes all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, and said, “It made a difference for that one.” There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through the strength of our vision of the power （力量） to shape the future.
We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will be better.

Nothing is more pleasing and romantic as flowers in the bedroom. Now, a new study says that the sweet smells of flowers in the bedroom can also lead to sweet dreams.
Researchers in Germany have carried out the study and have found that sleeping with flowers in the bedroom may encourage sweet dreams, a major finding they claim could help nightmare sufferers to and extent.
They came to the conclusion after an analysis of the sleep patterns of 15 female volunteers for a period of nearly 30 nights, a leading British newspaper reported on Monday.
The researchers pumped scents of rotten eggs, roses or no scent under their noses for nearly ten seconds while the women were in the Rapid Eye Movement period of sleep when a dream occurs.
The subjects were then woken up and asked to record their dreams. The smells had an effect on the emotions of the dreams but did not become part of the dream in that the women exposed to roses did not dream about roses the study found.
There was a correlation between the negative smells and negative emotional scores the sleepers reported from their dream.
According to the researchers, it’ll be interesting to study nightmare sufferers and if positive smells can actually influence the mood of their dreams as a form of treatment in the future.
The study has been presented at the 2008 American Academy of Otoblaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation Annual Meeting in Chicago.
67. What is the right order of the events related to the experiment
a. The female volunteers get to sleep.
b. The researchers wake up the sleeping women.
c. A particular smell is pumped under dreamers’ noses
d. The dreamers are asked to describe their dreams.
A. a, c, b, d B. d, c, b, a C. a, c, d, b D, d, b, c, a
68. The underlined word “correlation” in paragraph 6 can be replaced by _______
A. combination B. coincidence C. connection D. cooperation
69. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. People are very sensitive to smells at night.
B. The subjects were tested on when they dreamed
C. Pleasant smells get sleepers to dream of roses.
D. The experiment is designed to treat sleeplessness.
70. What is the future perspective（前景）of the study
A. Sleeplessness can be cured in the near future.
B. Nightmare sufferers are likely to recover soon.
C. The finding can give hope to nightmare sufferers.

My daughter Chloe is starting out in college in the fall. With her newfound independence will come the newfound responsibilities of dealing with money.
71. Now I have a few lessons I’d like to share with Chloe, and with anyone else starting out in college.
72. OK, this is almost the only lesson you need. The biggest reason you get into money problems is that you spend money you don’t really have. Then you end up in the hole, and it’s hard to get out of the hole. You work too many hours to keep up with your spending. And you end up with a life that’s about nothing but trying to pay for all the spending on something you don’t really need. 73. _
Make a very simple budget (预算). It’s a terrible thing for people who’ve never done a budget, but it’s not hard. 74. _ If the bills add up to more than the income, remove some bills.
Pay bills right away. If you have the money, pay the bill as soon as it comes in. You can usually do this online, but if not, it’s just a matter of writing a check, putting it in an envelope, and writing out an address — two minutes. 75. _ If you let the bill paying get pushed back, it becomes a terrible thing.
That’s all you need to know. If you save when you’re in college, avoid debt, and pay bills on time, you’re golden.
A. Spend less than you earn.
B. List your income, then list your bills.
C. So spend less, work less, worry less, be happier.
D. Find ways to get things done you need to get done.
E. If you spend less than you earn, you won’t be in debt.
F. Like many young people, she hates thinking about money.
G. Do this two-minute action at once, so you don’t have to worry about it later.

It is three years now since I graduate from No. 1 High School. Last Sunday, the class that I was on held a get-together, which took us a long time prepare. It was indeed not easy to get in the touch with everybody and set a well time for all of us. We all enjoyed this precious day greatly, remember the time we spent together and the people they were familiar with. It was a pity which some of us were not present as they had gone to abroad for further studies, but they called back or sent greeting card from different places.
