There are few things in this life more difficult to experience than the loss of one’s child. Jim Wallis, in WHO SPEAKS FOR GOD, tells a story that happened during the war in Sarajevo. A reporter who was covering the violence in the middle of the city saw a little girl shot by a gunman.
The reporter rushed to the aid of a man who was now holding the child. He helped them both into his car and sped off to a hospital.
“Hurry, my friend,” the man urged, “my child is still alive.” A moment or two later he pleaded, “Hurry, my friend, my child is still breathing.” A little later he said, “Hurry, my friend, my child is still warm.”
When they got to the hospital, the young girl was gone. “This is a terrible task for me,” the distraught man said to the reporter. “I must go and tell her father that his child is dead.”
He looked at the man in surprise and said, “I thought she was your child.”
The man replied, “No, but aren"t they all our children?”
I think that is one of the great questions of our age that deserves an answer.
Aren’t they all our children? Those on our side of the border as well as those on the other side? Those of our nation no more or less than those of another?
Aren’t they all our children? The well-educated and the under-educated? The well-fed and the under-fed? Those who are secure and those who are at risk?
Aren’t they all our children? if we say yes, can we ever again pit them against each other? “If we have no peace,” said Mother Teresa, “it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
There may be no greater question for our generation. And how we answer that question will determine the shape of our world for years to come.
51. What was the reporter doing when the shooting took place?
A. Telling a story. B. Having a meeting.
C. Reporting an event. D. Helping the wounded.
52. From the text we know the girl died .
A. in the hospital B. with nobody in front
C. soon after the shooting D. far away from her home
53. How many people experienced the sad story?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
54. Which can best express the point of a yes to the question “Aren’t they all our children?”
A. Health. B. Love. C. Wealth. D. Peace.

A blow-fly was looking for an ideal place like rotting meat to lay her eggs so that when her little babies were born, they could feed on the meat.
As she turned a corner in the grassland, she smelt something that smells like rotten meat in the air! With a great joy she landed on it and laid her eggs. She was happy that her children would have enough food to eat.
But the fly did not know she had made a great mistake. What she had sat upon was not meat but a flower, which smells badly. It is called a carrion flower. So, when the blow-fly’s eggs hatched and the little maggots(蛆)came out, they had nothing to eat. They died of starvation.
The carrion flower is one of the many flowers which send out dirty smells to attract flies. The Rafflesia stinks like rotting meat, while the tropical Lords and Ladies flower gives out a smell like rotting fish.
They do it for a special reason. These plants cannot move from their place. But it is important for the male cell of one plant to get in touch with the female cell of another plant. Once that is done, the seed of the plant will bloom and give birth to another plant.
The plant uses its stink to attract flies. As soon as the blow-fly sits on the follower, it is captured by the flower with strong hair. When the hair falls, the fly is free to fly- but it takes some pollen(花粉) with it. And goes and sits on another plant. The male cell of one plant meets the female cell of the other. The seed gets new life.
64. Why did the fly land on something smelly?
A. She was too careless before her bearing. B. She liked the particular smell very much
C. She hoped to find some food for her babies. D. She couldn’t find a better place for delivery.
65. The little maggots finally died because_________.
A. they were born too weak B. they lacked food available
C. carrion flower were poisonous D. their mother didn’t take care of them
66. Flowers like carrion flower and Rafflesia naturally smell terrible so that_________.
A. they need insects to spread their pollen B. they succeed in producing more seeds
C. their seeds can be carried to other places D. they can manage to absorb more nutrients
67. What is the best title of the text?
A. Dirty Tricks B. Smelly Plants C. A strange Flower D. Secrets of Nature.
B
A new study has claimed that men really are more intelligent than women . The study concluded that men’s IQs are almost four points higher than women’s.
British-born researcher John Philippe Rushton says the finding could explain why so few women make it to the top in the workplace.
The Oxford University reached his conclusion after Scrutinizing the results of university ability tests taken by 100,000 students aged 17 and 18 of both sexes.
A focus on the factors such as the ability to quickly grasp a complex concept , verbal reasoning skills(语言推理能力) and creativity—some of the key factors of intelligence ---showed the male teenagers had IQs that were an average of 3.63 points higher. The average person has an IQ around 100 . The findings , which held true for all classes and levels of education , overturn 100-year opinion that men and women average the same in general mental ability. They also conflict(冲突) with evidence that girls do better in school exams than boys.
But Professor Rushton argues that the faster maturing(成熟) of girls leads to them outshining boys in the classroom .
46. The report is mainly about________.
A. a study that shows men are clever than women B. the “glass ceiling “phenomenon
C. Professor Ruston’s theory on IQ D. the difference between male and female
47. The underlined word “Scrutinizing” in the fourth paragraph probably means__________.
A. making up B. carrying out C. examining carefully D. looking at
48. The tests were taken by _________.
A. boy students aged 17 and 18. B. 100,000 boy and girl students aged 17 and 18
C. girl students aged 17 and 18 D. 100,000 girl students
49. We can infer that the average woman has an IQ of _________.
A. a little less than 100 B. 100 C. more than 100 D. 96.37
50. Which of the following opinions does Professor Rushton NOT accept?
A. Men’s IQs are almost four points higher than women’s
B. Few women make it to the top in the workplace.
C. Men and women average the same in general mental ability .
D. The faster maturing of girls leads to them outshining boys in the classroom.
There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently.

We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.
