having an influence on our life. Surf the Internet and you"ll find blogs everywhere. A blog, shortened from "weblog", is a public Internet journal written by one person or a group of people. It is a website in which
a person or a group can place news, personal thoughts, text, photos, video or audio files, or links upon
which visitors can comment. A blog lets you post on the Internet without having to know web design or
be technical. You are given an environment to make dated entries on the topic of your choice which are
"published", so other people can read them.
Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called "blogging".
Blogging has revolutionized Internet publishing in the last several years because it gives everyone with
Internet access the opportunity to become an online writer. Objects, such as "text and photos" in a blog
can be called "blog posts", "posts", or "entries". The person who posts these entries is called a "blogger".
Now, somewhere around the world, a blog is created almost every 6 seconds. Because it"s great
potential, Bill Gates views it as important as e-mail, BBS, and MSN. He"s trying to make blogs the

understand your need for sleep. And the aircraft"s bathroom is a total mess, These situations can make
even a short flight unbearable . Hopefully you don"t cause these unpleasant experiences for others. 1 .
Always recline(向后倾斜) your seat slowly. There"s nothing worse than suddenly being hit in the knees
by the seat in front of you. In addition, don"t keep your seat reclined for the entire flight. Always keep it
upright during mealtimes. And remember to put it in the upright position before going to the restroom (or
anytime you leave your seat. )

seatmate(s) . Share the armrest , especially on a long flight . Also, be careful not to kick or push on the

the college entrance exams in June. But for American high school seniors the experience couldn"t be more different. The end of senior year is a celebration of their time in high school and involves parties, games
and fun.
Senioritis is a commonly used expression. It means seniors have a disease which makes them unable
to do work. This starts in April when seniors find out where they have been accepted to university.
Unwilling to do school work, seniors have plenty of other activities to focus on. Many schools have
a "Senior Show", in which only seniors are allowed to perform. Some seniors sing or dance but many of
them perform skits (滑稽短剧), where they make fun of their favorite teachers or their friends. For
example, a group of boys may dress up and imitate a group of their girl friends. It is all very light-hearted.
The "Senior Show" is usually a part of Senior Week, which is a week specifically dedicated (专用的)
to seniors. During this week, seniors usually get academic or athletic awards they have won over their
high school careers. The seniors also vote for one of their male and female classmates who they believe is
the best-looking or funniest or most involved, etc. These are then published in the yearbook.
The yearbook is an important part of high school for seniors. It is usually dedicated to them and has all
their pictures and a quote from them in it. Then seniors go around and get it signed by their friends so they can always remember their time together.
Of course during all of this time, seniors are preparing for the Senior Prom, which is an important
moment in American culture. It is the most important dance in a young American"s life.
The end of senior year is a truly special and wonderful time for American students. It"s something they
will remember for the rest of their lives.

could get a better job, then I would enjoy life." But why not enjoy life right now?
Firstly, take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings. 2 "There is a great
big world of wonder and beauty around us!" And as Brodersen explains, "Look for the beauty of the
sunrise and of a friend"s smile that brightens your day. Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not
normally see. Doing so helps to cheer you up."
Secondly, taking time to experience some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease
your stress. Take me for example. 3 One universal simple pleasure is finding things that make you laugh. Make time to laugh every day.
Thirdly, don"t take your family and friends for granted. Rich, rewarding relationships add greatly to the
enjoyment of life. When you think of someone, why not call, e-mail or write them? 4 As Wayne Lawton explains, "Invest time in relationships. Remove the attitude, what"s in it for me? Happiness is found in
putting other"s interests, desires and

dead-end street." 5

rates they charge are tied to the number of readers. But the number of people who buy newspapers has
been falling for years. And this traditional business model had not worked very well on the Internet,
especially in a bad economy.
Many newspaper companies have large debts from buying other papers. Some papers have recently
closed or declared bankruptcy or reduced their operations.
Newspapers are looking for new ways to reinvent themselves and new ways to earn money. That
includes giving new consideration to an old idea-charging for at least some of the material that most
papers now publish online for free.
Internet access to newspapers means that more people may read the news, which is good for society. But good reporting costs money. The question is how much people are willing to pay for news that they
have got used to receiving for free.
The look of American newspapers changed after USA Today arrived in 1982. Most of the stories
were short. There was heavy use of color and images. People who compared it to television did not
necessarily mean that as praise. But the new design succeeded and influenced many other papers.
Now newspapers are looking to redesign themselves for an increasingly online world. Millions of
people would rather read papers like USA Today and The New York Times for free on the Web than
pay for a printed version. Publishers who chose that business plan might regret it now, but they might
not have had much choice. Survival means changing as conditions change. Like any other business,
newspapers have to balance their needs with the need of their customers.
B. selling newspapers
C. publishing stories
D. reporting news
B. There were many images.
C. There was heavy use of color.
D. It was published before 1982.
B. the Internet and television have taken the place of newspapers
C. some newspapers have become non-profit organizations
D. more and more people read news on the Web
B. changing the look of newspapers
C. publishing news on the Internet
D. Providing readers with printed versions for free
B. Great changes have taken place in the American media.
C. American newspapers will have a bright future.
D. American newspapers are facing great difficulties.
the 2014 Winter Games to the Russian town of Sochi. Yet this choice if full of geopolitical meaning.
President Vladimir Putin flew to Guatemala to address IOC delegates before they voted, and surprised them by speaking in French and - for the first time ever in public - English. Later he declared that Sochi"s
victory was "not only a recognition of Russia"s achievements in sports but also an assessment of our
country".
Sochi, located between the Caucasus and the Black Sea, has poor roads, one old resort and
out-of-date facilities. In the next five years it will be transformed by a burst of constructions
unprecedented (前所未有的) in the history of Russia. Winning the Olympic bid has given Russian
politicians a focus, a $ 12 billion project they can use to showcase their power and that of their country.
Several have already announced bid investments in Sochi.
Olympic planners will have to assure that the Sochi project dose not collapse under the weight of
corruption(腐败), which Russian officials are famous for. With many eyes watching, they will also have
to green landscape around Sochi, where some of Europe"s last wild bears roar in primitive mountain
forests, with more care for the environment than Russia has traditionally shown.
Sochi also sits on the edge of a region that has been boiling with ethnic (民族的) and political tensions
since the collapse of the Soviet Union. In past centuries it was ruled by both Georgia and Abkhazia, which is now a breakaway region of Georgia. Russia backs the rebel regime in Abkhazia, but as the Olympics
approach, it may feel it needs to be careful.
The president of Georgia, Mikhail Saakashvili, might have bitterly protested (反对) the Olympic
Committee"s decision to award the Winter Games to a country that actively supports rebels within
Georgia. Instead he was wise enough to realize that this event could push Russia toward compromise
(妥协) solutions in Abkhazia and perhaps even in Ossetia, Nagorno Karabakh and Chechnya.
B. French
C. English
D. Spanish

B. to break away from Georgia

D. how to do away with the mountain forests around Sochi
B. the Olympic Games might be a chance to ease regional tensions
C. the IOC backs the rebels in Georgia
D. Georgia wants to break away from Russia
