The DREAM Act is a/an 41 aid program for the young illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. before they were 16. Those who apply for this program can get 42 and temporary residing (居住) status, which can be changed, once 43 , to a green card after six years. These immigrants can then use their newly acquired status to seek green cards for their 44 . In this way, it can also provide citizenship for the illegal foreigners who brought their children to the US.
“I don’t live in fear of being driven out of this 45 ,” says Juan, a high school junior born in Mexico. “I live a normal life here 46 that now everyone is getting their driver’s license, and I can’t.”
Juan came to the U.S. with his mother and older brother at eight. He is hoping for the DREAM Act to be 47 . While he admits that there is no obvious prejudice in high school, Juan 48 faces unfair racial treatment.
“It 49 me when people joke around and ask me for my green card,” Juan explains. “I 50 , but deep down I know they are offending me for 51 I have no control over. I was born in Mexico, but my 52 is here.”
His brother now attends a community (社区) college and plans to enter a university. Juan hopes to take a 53 path. “For long, I have no 54 that I can go to university” Juan says. “I know it’s going to be hard, but as long as I stay in this country, I have a/an 55 .”

Bill Lacovara, an insurance adjuster from Ventnor, New Jersey, said he got the bag while on a fishing trip last week.
The letters were 4 to the clergyman, who died in 2004. Someone cleaning his house may have 5 the bag, which Lacovara found about 100 miles (160km) from Cooper’s house.
They include one from a teenage girl asking God to 6 her for her wrongdoing, one from a prisoner who said he was 7 and someone had set a trap for him, and 8 from a man who wanted God’s help winning the lottery, according to media reports.
Lavovara said he could have 9 them on eBay for up to $15,000(7,889 pounds) according to his prediction of the compete price and would have given the money to charity. But he has changed his mind because he said the move caused 10 to some religious people.
“They said they were 11 in me, and I didn’t want to do something that’s going to create 12 results.” he told Reuters.
Some 13 him to burn the letters, throw them back in the ocean or give them to a church, Lacovara said.

Soon you will be leaving the company of those who think they have all the answers –your professors, instructors and counselors-and going out into what we like to call the real world. In time you will meet up with other people who think they have all the answers. These people are called bosses. My advice is: humor them.
A little later you’ll meet additional people who think they have all the answers.
These are called spouses (配偶) . My advice is: humor them, too.
And of all goes well, in a few years you will meet still another group of people who think they have all the answers. These are called children. Humor them.
Life will go on, your children will grow up, go to school and someday they could be taking part in a graduation ceremony just like this one. And who knows, the speakers responsible for handing out good advice might be you. Halfway through your speech, the graduate sitting next to your daughter will lean over and ask, “Who is that woman up there who thinks she has all the answers?”
Well, thanks to the reasonable advice you are hearing today and that I hope you will all pass on, she will be able to say, “That is my mother. Humor her.”
小题1:According to the text, at a graduation ceremony you’ll most probably hear ________ given by the speaker.

A brake on global warming—for now
One of the oceans’ most important climate functions is absorbing heat and carbon dioxide(CO2), one of the gases that causes global warming. Acting as something absorbing heat, the oceans have absorbed huge amounts of heat and CO2 in the last forty years.
Fujita explains, “the oceans are saving us from faster climate change—they are putting a brake on the climate system.”
“That’s the good news,” he adds. “The bad news is that the oceans only slow the atmospheric warming. Once the oceans come to balance with a greenhouse-gas warmed earth, the extreme heat will remain in the atmosphere and things will get much hotter.” But where and how the oceans release this slowly increased heat is uncertain. And as the ocean stores heat, fragile(脆弱的) underwater ecosystems are struggling.
The most recent scientific report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) also notes with concern that the ocean is acidifying(酸化) because of increased absorption of atmospheric CO2. and thus causing a threat to shell-forming species. Sharp increase in CO2 levels will cause further acidification of the ocean.
Currents distributing heat
Another important role the oceans play is that of distributor(散布者). Oceans deliver heat and life-sustaining nutrition around the globe. Just as blood tube bring oxygen and nutrition to cells in the human body, the ocean’s currents carry oxygen, nutrients and heat throughout the Earth. The ocean distributes 25 to 50 per cent of energy the planet receives from the sun. For example, the Gulf Stream carries heat across the Atlantic. This warm current gives northwestern European a milder climate that it would normally have so far north. A change to the ocean’s circulation patterns could throw Europe into a colder period, even as the rest of the world is experiencing warmer temperatures.
小题1: We can infer from the passage that _______.
A.the oceans cause global warming | B.the oceans stop global warming |
C.the oceans release nutrients and heat | D.the ocean ecosystems face more dangers |
- produce oxygen andnutrients around
- absorb 25-50% ofthe energy from the sun
- distribute theatmosphere hotter
小题3: Which of the following are the results of the ocean absorbing heat and CO2?
a. It causes further acidification.
b. It makes the atmosphere hotter.
c. It balances the oceans with a green-house gas.
d. It affects shell-forming species.
e. It makes the oceans act as a heat sponge.
f. It controls the Earth’s climate.
A.a-c-f | B.a-d-f | C.b-d-e | D.b-c-e |
A.Asia would suffer a hotter climate. |
B.Europe would become hotter |
C.the rest of the world would become warmer. |
D.the climate of Europe would become colder. |
Each of us has our own __26__of what cheese is, and we want to __27__it because we believe it makes us __28__.
Once there lived four little characters. Two were __29__named Sniff and Scurry and two were little people named Hem and Haw.
Every morning, the mice and the little people __30_their running wear and went to Cheese Station C __31__they found their cheese. It was such a large store(仓库) of cheese that Hem and Haw __32__moved their homes to be closer to it.
One morning, Sniff and Scurry arrived at Cheese Station C and discovered there was __33__cheese. They weren’t surprised. __34__they had noticed the supply 35 cheese had been getting smaller every day; they were prepared for the result. They set out quickly to __36__new cheese.
Later that same day, Hem and Haw arrived. “What? No cheese! Who moved my cheese?” Hem yelled(叫喊). They went home that night __37__and discouraged.
The next day Hem and Haw __38__to Cheese Station C. But the situation hadn’t changed. Haw asked, “Do Sniff and Scurry know something we don’t know?” Hem __39__him and said, “What would they know? They are simple 40 and we are human beings. They cannot be __41__than we are.”
Haw suggested, “Maybe we should 42 talking about the situation and just to look for some new cheese.”
Haw decided to 43 Cheese Station C while Hem was more comfortable staying in the cheese less Station C.
Meanwhile, Sniff and Scurry went farther 44 they found Cheese Station N. They found what they had been looking for. It was the biggest 45 of cheese the mice had ever seen.
