Paul Zindel’s death on March 27,2003 ended the brilliant life of a famous writer.
Not only did Paul Zindel win a Pulitzer Prize as well as an Obie Prize for his 1970 play The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds, but be was one of the earliest writers in the field of contemporary(当代的) literature for young adults(成人). The Pigman, published in 1968, is still one of the most well-known and widely-taught novels in the genre. The American Library Association has named it one of the 100 Best of the Best Books for Young Adults published between 1967 and 1992, and Zindel’s autobiography(自传), The Pigman and Me, was among the 100 Best of the Best Books published for teenagers during the last part of the twentieth century. Six of Zindel’s books, in fact, have been voted the Best Books for Young Adults, and most of his recent horror books-such as The Doom Stone and Rats-have been chosen as Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers. Clearly, he was a writer who knew how to interest contemporary children. Recognizing that, the American Library Association in 2002 honored Paul Zindel with the Margaret A. Edwards Prize for his lifetime achievements, and later that same year he was presented with the ALAN Prize for his contributions to Young Adult Literature. With his passing, young readers, teachers, and librarians have lost a great friend.

Three months after the government stopped issuing(发放)or renewing permits for Internet cafes(网吧) because of security(安全)concerns, some cafe owners are having financial(经济的)concerns of their own.
The permits were stopped suddenly three months ago by the government until new safeguards could be put in place to prevent misuse of the information superhighway, but for cafe owners it’s a business breakdown with no fix in sight.
“I handed in a request to open up an Internet café and received the conditions,” said the businessman Obeidallah. “I rented a place in the Sharafiah district at SR45,000 and prepared the place with equipment that cost me more than SR100,000. When I went to the local government after finishing everything, I was surprised to find that they’d stopped issuing permits for Internet cafes.”
Having an Internet cafe without Internet is much like having a coffee shop without coffee. “I’m avoiding closing the place, but it’s been more than three months with the situation ongoing as it is.” Obeidallah said. “Who will bear the losses caused by the permit issue ”
The decision took many cafe owners by surprise. “I asked to open an Internet café, and I was handed a list of all the things that were needed to follow through, such as a sign for the place, filling out forms,” said Hassan Al-Harbi.
“I did all that was asked and rented a place. And after the Haj vacation I went to the local government and they surprised me, saying that there are new rules that forbid the issuing of any more Internet cafe permits and that one can’t even renew his permit. I’ve lost more than SR80,000,” Al-harbi added.
As for the government, officials say a method to deal with it is on the way. But security concerns come before profit(盈利).
60.The government stopped issuing or renewing permits for Internet cafes .
A.to prevent misuse of new safeguards in Internet cafes
B.to make cafe owners earn less profit from their business
C.to stop the use of the information superhighway on Internet
D.to make sure of the proper use of the information superhighway
61.The government’s decision led to the fact that many cafe owners .
A.suffered heavy financial losses B.asked to open up Internet cafes
C.continued to operate Internet cafes D.asked the government for payment
62.The underlined phrase in the last paragraph “on the way” means .
A.to be studied B.to be put into practice
C.to be changed D.to be improved
63.The cafe owners found the government’s decision .
A.surprising and unacceptable B.understandable and acceptable
C.reasonable but surprising D.surprising but acceptable

Walk through the Amazon rainforest(雨林) today and you will find it is steamy ,warm ,damp and thick .But if you had been around 15,000 years ago, during the last ice age ,would it have been the same For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests like the Amazon might have reacted(反应)to the cold ,dry climates of the ice ages ,but until now ,no one has reached a satisfying answer.
Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming . Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tonnes of CO2 each year; equal to the total amount of CO2 giving off in the UK each year. But how will the Amazon react to future climate change If it gets drier ,will it still survive and continue to draw down CO2 Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.
Unfortunately ,getting into the Amazon rainforest and collecting information are very difficult .To study past climate ,scientists need to look at fossilized pollen ,kept in lake muds .Going back to the last ice age means drilling deep down into lake sediments (沉淀物),which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery .There are very few roads and paths ,or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes .Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest ,but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled(未取样).So far ,only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon rainforest reacts to climate change.
64.The underlined phrase “mopping up” in the second paragraph means .
A.cleaning up B.taking in C.wiping out D.giving out
65.How will the Amazon rainforest react to future climate change
A.It’ll get drier and continue to remove CO2 .
B.It’ll remain steamy ,warm ,damp and thick .
C.It’ll get warmer and then colder and drier.
D.There is no exact answer up to present.
66.What’s the main idea of the last paragraph
A.It’s important to drill deep down into lake sediments to collect information.
B.It’s impossible to prove how climate changes in the Amazon rainforest.
C.It’s hard to collect information for studies of the past climate in the Amazon rainforest.
D.It’s necessary to have specialized equipment and machinery to study the past climate.
67.The best title for this passage may probably be .
A.Studies of the Amazon B.Climates of the Amazon
C.Secrets of the Rainforests D.Changes of the Rainforests

Dr Kimsma ,from the Netherlands, believes that euthanasia(安乐死)is not simply a
question of ending someone’s life. The important thing is how that person’s life ends. If someone chooses enthanasia, he doesn’t have to think about the worry, and the suffering only. He can also focus (集中在)on the things he really wants to do, such as taking a last trip, or making up a fight with someone in the family, or saying goodbye. The pressure on that person becomes lighter when he knows he won’t have to go on suffering long. Often, people who have chosen euthanasia have such peace of mind that they die naturally, “ If I ended the life of a patient because I had not given him good care ,I would feel ashamed and guilty,” he said.
Dr Kimsma admits that in the case of euthanasia there is a conflict(冲突) between his goals
as a doctor: saving life and helping those who are suffering. He believes that helping people is the morally right thing to do.” My patient can be sure that I will not let them suffer unnecessarily alone. That is just my goal and duty as a doctor.” He says he can only continue to perform euthanasia because it is something that happens very rarely.
Dr Ravenscroft, a medical professor in Australia, holds that euthanasia is wrong. He believes that when people have an incurable illness, they should be given care that lessens their pain and suffering and helps them to feel less afraid. He says that such care should improve the quality of a person’s life, even in the very last part of his life, without bringing death. Dr Ravenscroft suggests that a patient should be given a drug to help him sleep for the last few days of his life, if nothing else will help him.
Ravenscroft says, “ Life is a great mystery. We take part in all of life including dying, but we are not masters of it.”
Besides, if euthanasia is lawful, it may be easier to choose death instead of continuing to look for a better treatment. He fears that people can be persuaded to choose euthanasia when they do not really want to.
72. Which of the following is Not Dr Kimsma’s opinion
A. People may die peacefully in euthanasia because they feel less pressure.
B. Euthanasia allows people to focus on important personal things in the last part of their lives.
C. It is wrong to give up looking for a better treatment for an incurable disease.
D. It is wrong to let a patient suffer when the disease is beyond cure.
73. According to Dr Kimsma , when the two goals of a doctor conflict,_____
A. saving life of those who are sick should come first.
B. helping people who are suffering should come first.
C. it is up to his patient to make a decision.
D. the solution varies according to the situation.
74. Dr Ravenscroft is against euthanasia . One of his reasons is that _______.
A. nobody really wants to end his own life .
B. saving life is the only goal for a doctor .
C. care given to people having incurable diseases can make them live longer.
D. people can be given painkillers and drugs to make them suffer less.
75. By “ we are not masters of it” , Dr Ravenscroft means _______.
A. we have no right to end a person’s life . B. we can never tell what will happen to us.
C. life is as mysterious as death. D. life is always beyond our knowledge .

Saving Our City
It is very important to deal with the rubbish in cities. Rubbish must be treated properly, otherwise it may cause problems. For example, It may pollute the air and water. If people breathe the polluted air or drink the polluted water, they may get ill.
Our city has begun to pay attention to the problems. For example, rubbish is sorted. Some rubbish, such as newspapers and glass, is recycled. The rest, which is believed to be harmful, is sent to a certain place and buried. Waste water is treated before it is poured into rivers. What’s more, laws have been passed to protect the environment.
We've been trying, but there is still a long way to go. We should do our best to fight against pollution.
