B
Our first welcome to the UK wasn't from the staff of Heathrow Airport or the coach driver who entered into our lives to take us to our new city and new home for the next three weeks. It was, in
fact, the noisy and energetic seagulls(海鸥) full of songs that flew down to us. When left from the planes' exits passage, we still could hear their loud and clear songs through the glasses. It was amazing that they lifted our spirits and cheered us up after our stupidly long and awful journey.
These seagulls welcomed my Chinese people into their home with open wings and if they could speak instead of merely squawk(鸟叫),I'm sure we would've struck up some bright and harmonious relationship. They liked to hover(盘旋) overhead around with childlike greetings they sang or just simply walk fearlessly close to our feet. Some of us saved bread our host family prepared in the lunchboxes for these friends. And lovely, we would like to share what we have for the rest of eternity(永恒).
But Julie, the mother of my host family, who then I stayed with, does not think so. Strangely as well, she could not give any reasons. The closed and squawk-proof double-glazing explains. Perhaps she prefers to sleep with her windows open but she always fails to do that, because those birds seemed to like staying up till next morning,wholly screaming for her on and on. And they decide to keep doing so every single night. Furthermore, every time she has to wash the marble floor of the gardens, Julie would look up around and swear to the droppings(鸟粪) shortly followed by a smile on her face towards me and said:“They are friendly to you.”
But stop thinking that she hates the creatures and never plans to have a change.Because there is another side to her evident feelings towards the birds. We will do some shopping at weekends and every time there Julie doesn't forget to put a big bag of wild birdseed(鸟食) into her carriage which costs quite more than milks or juices for one week. I can see what it goes for since she refills the wild bird feeder(喂食器)before a big hurry to drive to work every morning and when working she knows what is happening back at home — seagulls are enjoying the seed and leaving for next morning.
I'm leaving soon and not likely, I guess, though I hope not, to get back to see my friends here in England in the future. I said I would miss all friends living here including the seagulls. And when Julie was refilling the feeder again, she said:“They' re nice but they are not my friends.”
61. According to the first paragraph, we can know that .
A. they felt disappointed at not being welcomed by any local people as they landed
B. those birds were more energetic and friendly than the local people
C. they didn't like to be welcomed by the seagulls since they were noisy and stupid
D. they felt surprised to find seagulls there shortly after they landed
62. What does“squawk-proof double-glazing” underlined in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. a window used to keep noise out B. a cage used for keeping birds
C. birdseed used to feed the seagulls D. a shotgun used for catching birds
63. Julie said the seagulls were nice but not her friends for the following reasons EXCEPT that .
A. the seagulls disturbed her every night
B. the seagulls dirtied her garden
C. the birdseeds were not cheap
D. the seagulls were friendly to her guests
64. What's the best title for this passage
A. Birds in London B. Feed What You Want to Kill
C. Bite the Hand that Feed You D. Birds Can Welcome
65. The passage is most possibly taken from .
A. a report about birds B. a book about London
C. a magazine about travelling D. a brochure about host family
C
A federal judge in California has dismissed a lawsuit against the Coca-Cola company which argued that Diet Coke misled people to believe the drink would help them lose weight.
The case was brought by Shana Becerra who said that she had bought and drank Diet Coke because she believed it would contribute to weight loss and healthy weight management. She alleged(断言) that Diet Coke had the opposite effect, citing studies that she claimed showed sweeteners with no nutritional value like those used in Diet Coke caused weight gain and increased risk of certain diseases.
Although Coca-Cola’ s arguments against the suit were not adequate, Judge William Alsup said the prosecutor(检察官) failed to show that consumers were likely to be deceived by the advertising.
Alsup dismissed the case because Becerra had not met the requirement that“members of the public are likely to be deceived”. “In supermarkets, Diet Coke is displayed next to regular soft drinks and is not sold in the health-food section.Reasonable consumers would understand that Diet Coke merely deletes the calories usually present in regular Coke, and that the caloric reduction will lead to weight loss only as part of an overall sensible diet and exercise regimen (养生法) dependent on individual metabolism(新陈代谢),” Alsup said in the decision.
Alsup said the studies cited by Becerra suggest a connection between Diet Coke-type drinks and weight gain, but they do not suggest causation. He added that one of the studies even says that weight gain is“due to the behavior of consumers, rather than the effects of non-nutritive sweeteners.” Alsup also rejected the idea that Diet Coke advertising would suggest advertising will feature healthy and attractive consumers enjoying the subject products and will not star the unhealthy and unfit.”
The decision on Tuesday, said that the prosecutor has until March 22 to file a motion to amend the complaint. A spokesperson for the Coca-Cola company said they were content with the fact that the court dismissed prosecutor baseless complaint.
66. What was the lawsuit against
A. The advertisements exaggerated the health effects of Diet Coke.
B. The Coca-Cola company misled people to believe the safety of its products.
C. One of Coca-Cola’ s drinks made people think it would make them thinner.
D. The judge discriminated the consumers in favor of the Coco-Cola company.
67. What are the side effects of sweeteners
A. They stimulate people's spirits and make them energetic.
B. They add a nice touch to the soft drinks and make them popular.
C. They provide nutritious refreshment for fat consumers.
D. They increase people's weight and the potential possibility of getting sick.
68. Why did Judge William Alsup dismiss the charge
A. Because the prosecutor couldn't provide solid evidence to support her lawsuit.
B. Because the Coca-Cola company didn’ t do anything wrong.
C. Because he was reasonable enough to know the effects of soft drinks.
D. Because the consumer made no sense in this lawsuit.
69. According to Alsup, how can people lose weight with Diet Coke
A. They should reduce the calories they take in.
B. They should replace the regular Coca with Diet Coke.
C. They should reduce their drinking of Diet Coke.
D. They should pay attention to their diet and do exercise.
70. What was the Coca-Cola company's attitude towards the Judge's decision
A. Pleased. B. Regretful. C. Angry. D. Shameful.

Me: Hello Dad! I' ve an exam today.
He: All the best son! I'm getting a strong feeling. You' ll rock it today. May god bless you!
Me : Thank you dad. Bye! And I hang up the call.
My friend standing beside me chuckles, “Do you do this before every exam ” I answer, “Yes, I feel good and encouraged, and so do they.” It hardly takes a minute to call up your parents, but it gives a lot of confidence and makes their day too.
Not calling up parents is indeed a common mistake college students make. For me the most common mistake is treating it like school. When I went to university,most of the people around me came straight from school. They had the thought like children who were being forced to do something. They skipped classes, sat at the back talking during lectures and even didn't do the reading! They were still in“school”mode, thinking that the point was to get through it with the least effort.
For my part, I was there after working in a beer factory for three years. I knew that I had gone to university because I wanted to learn. I wasn't there because my teachers at school made me go, or my parents made me go, or because my friends were all going. I had chosen to go. I think that this put me in a different mind. I read all the set texts and I went to all the lectures and seminars. Don't get
me wrong. I had fun too, but I was there to learn and I learnt a lot. I enjoyed it and it was rewarding to learn about the authors, their works, the critic's opinions etc.
The kids around me thought that reading six novels for a module and going to a lecture for each novel was too much work. They would read one novel, go to the lecture for that one and write their essay on that one book. They thought that they were really clever to work out an easier way of doing it. But they were tricking themselves out of an education!
There are other mistakes that may cause future regrets for the college students.A large number of them focus too hard on getting good grades, showing no interest in out-of-class side projects. Some complain that they are too busy because of school.As a matter of fact, they do not seriously treat all the free resources that universities have to offer.
71. The writer begins the passage with a dialogue in order to .
A. show off his writing skills B. expect his friend to admire him
C. lead in the topic naturally D. show he likes making phone calls
72. What do most university students usually do in the opinion of the writer
A. They attend every class for free chatting.
B. They highly praise independent learning.
C. They avoid reading books all the time.
D. They show little interest in active learning.
73. Why did the writer want to go to college
A. Because his parents forced him to.
B. Because he was dying for knowledge.
C. Because his teachers asked him to.
D. Because he learned from his friend.
74. What do the underlined sentences in Paragraph 5 mean
A. They lost their learning chances without noticing it.
B. They made up excuses for their laziness in learning.
C. They often pretended to be working hard at everything.
D. They told lies about what they were doing in college.
75. According to the passage, college students are supposed to .
A. stop being hard on themselves academically
B. make the most of the university they go to
C. have some relaxation after taking classes
D. feel thankful for what they are doing now
