A
Interview With God
I dreamed I had an interview with God. “So you would like to interview me?” God asked. “If you have the time,” I said. “My time is eternity.” God smiled, “what questions do you have in mind for me?” “What surprises you most about humankind? ”God answered, “That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up ,and then long to be children again. That they lose their health to make money... and then lose their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future. That they live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived.” God’s hand took mine and we were silent for a while. And then I asked, “As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn? To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is to let themselves be loved. To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them. To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least. To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings. To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently. To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.” “Thank you for your time,” I said humbly. “Is there anything else you would like your children to know?” God smiled and said; “Just know that I am here always.”

As China faces up to a battle against bird flu,the government has announced a lot of measures that it believes will bring the disease under contro1.
H5Nl avian influenza,known commonly as bird f1u, has killed at least 16 people across Asia and was proved in China on January 27. No human cases have been found in the mainland,but till Friday, 13 areas of the country had reported the disease in poultry(家禽).
‘‘It remains a difficult task for China to prevent and control the disease but the government is sure to win the fight,”said Vice-Minister of Agriculture Liu Jiang.
He gave detai1s of measures designed to stop the d1sease spread1ng. Poultry within 3 km of infected(被感染的)farms is to be killed and those within 5 km vaccinated(进行预防接种). Meanwhile,there will be continuing checking and daily reports on the disease across the country, and increased production of bird flu vaccines.
Among the 11 Asian countries and areas affected by bird flu in anima1s, only Viet Nam and Thailand have reported human cases. The people infected were reported to have caught the disease from poultry.
While the World Health Organization(WFIO)has said there is “no evidence of human-to-human spread” of bird flu,it admitted that two sisters who died of bird f1u in Viet Nam might have caught it from their brother.
The big fear is that the disease could connect with a human influenza virus to create a deadly new disease that kills millions of people throughout the world.
Peter Cordingley,spokesman of the WHO,said that Asian countries affected by bird flu should introduce a more healthy way of raising and selling chickens,and many experts think highly of it.
Many Chinese farmers live close with their animals and sell 1ive chickens On the market. This greatly increases the possibility of humans being infected with bird flu.
“They have to completely change their lifestyle,’’he said.
64.According to the passage,which of the following is true?
A. There’re no human cases in China,while there’re many in other countries.
B. To control the disease is an easy job for the Chinese government.
C. Little exercise is the main cause of bird f1u.
D. “Human-to-human spread” of bird flu now is still uncertain.
65.There is a great feat among people that .
A. the chickens will soon die out .
B. the disease might cause millions of deaths .
C.WHO will find no evidence of human-to-human spread
D. the Ch1nese government is unab1e to bring the disease under control.
66. One of the most effective measures to control bird nu shou1d be .
A. to keep a healthy way of life
B. to check dai1y reports on the disease
C. to kill all the animals on the farm
D. never to go to the market
67. The possibil1ty of many Chinese farmers being infected with bird flu greatly increases mostly because .
A. they eat a lot of animals every day
B. they raise too many airmails on the farm
C. they go to the market too often
D. they live close with their animals
D
Reflecting is a special kind of thinking. In the first place, it's a both active and controlled. When ideas pass aimlessly through your head, that is not reflecting. When someone tells you a story and it suddenly brings to mind something that happened to you, that is not reflecting either. Reflecting means focusing your attention. It means weighing, considering, and choosing. Suppose you're going home, and when you get there, you turn the knob, the door opens and you step in. Getting into your home does not require reflection. But now suppose that when you turn the knob, the door does not open. To get into the house, some reflecting is in order. You have to think about what you are going to do. You have to imagine possibilities and consider choices.
The second way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that it's persistent. It requires continuous effort. Suppose you're still trying to get through your front door. You check your pocket for the key. You walk around the house looking for an open window. You go to a phone to call a family member who has a key. Such behavior is proof of persistent reflective thinking. And if someone asks you what you are doing, you may say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house. But suppose, instead, you go to a nearby record store and look through the new records. If someone asks you what you are doing and you say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house, that will not make sense. You are only reflecting as long as you stick to the problem or task.
The third way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that it's careful. It aims at making sense. This doesn't mean that reflecting cannot be imaginative. A great deal of reflection could go into writing a science-fiction story about people who can move through solid objects. The ability to walk through walls could make sense in a science-fiction story. But it wouldn't make much sense in trying to get through your locked front door. Such imagining would be a kind of thinking, but it would not be reflection.
68. According to the passage, reflecting is _______.
A. not a kind of thinking but an action
B. giving all your attention to figuring out something
C. bringing to mind something that happened to you
D. letting ideas pass quickly through your head
69. If you don't take your key with you from work, which of the following does not show reflecting?
A. You go through the open window. B. You telephone your family member.
C. You go to the nearby record store. D. You ask the policeman for help.
70. The underlined word "persistent" probably means _____.
A. existing B. continuing C. trying D. imagining
71. Which of the following is the difference between thinking and reflecting?
A. Reflecting takes more time than thinking.
B. Reflecting is more important than thinking.
C. Reflecting is a kind of more imaginative thinking.
D. Reflecting is a kind of deeper thinking.

Snow-melting Agent
A heavy snow can kill pests and this means a good harvest next year. This will bring as well as trouble to urbanites.
On Nov.16,2003,a cold air current brought a heavy snow to Beijing. To prevent traffic jams, related government departments mobilized people to clear off snow on streets.
One of the most effective ways to clear off snow on roads is to scatter snow-melting agent on the roads. The major component of the snow-melting agent is salt. The snow-melting agent can make snow stop from freezing, make it easier to clear off the road, and allow traffic to flow smoothly. But it also brings about some hidden dangers. In the spring of 2003,over 300 000 trees in Beijing urban districts died. After analyzing soil around these trees, experts discovered that the salt content of these soils was 392 times higher than normal. Where did the excessive salt come from? After investigating, forestry experts found that when clearing snow in the winter, people usually heap snow containing snow-melting agent at trees’ roots, and that when the snow melts, this agent penetrates the soil and increases its salt content. The snow-melting agent indirectly killed the trees.
Statistics show that during a heavy snow in 2002,over 1000 tons of snow-melting agent was scatterred on streets in Beijing. Snow water containing a large amount of snow-melting agent got into the soil through sewers.
In addition, salt in the snow-melting agent can expedite the corrosion of steel bars in concrete buildings and cause the concrete to crack and peel, shortening the life of roads.
Scientists and government officials are required to solve traffic problems caused by heavy snows as soon as possible and at the same time try to reduce the negative effects of the snow-melting agent. This is a difficult problem placed before them. Related authorities have framed some local criteria to regulate the production and use of snow-melting agents.
Now, more harmless snow-melting agents are being developed. Now that even snow-melting agents that meet today’s criteria must still be used carefully, we have to rely more on our manpower and machines to clear off snow.
This year, in addition to using snow-melting agents, Beijing will use a large number of snow vehicles to clear snow on roads. In more places, citizens are mobilized to clear snow with their hands. This may be a test of a city’s civilization level.
72.Salt is a snow-melting agent while _________ is a cleaning agent.
A. water B. soap C. a washing-machine D. a housewife
73.The third paragraph of the text is mainly about _________.
A. the side effect of snow-melting agent
B. a case of damage to trees caused by snow-melting agent
C. the results of using snow-melting agent
D. the uses of snow-melting agent
74.According to the text, the most practical way to clear off snow is to _________.
A. use snow-melting agent as much as possible
B. only use more harmless snow-melting agent
C. encourage people to clear snow with their hands
D. use more snow vehicles
75.This text most probably appears in_________.
A. a newspaper B. a magazine on latest findings
C .a book on salt D a magazine on environmental protection
