as they cannot do their jobs without it, and others simply feel they need it as they cannot imagine life without it.
To think that something that did not even exist 50 years ago has come to play a crucial role in our lives like
this in just about 15 years makes one wonder-just what will the future bring?
In 2004, a survey was conducted in the US asking a group of technology experts their opinions on the
Internet in the next ten years. 57% of them agreed that virtual classes will be more widely adopted in schools,
allowing students to learn with those at the same level and with interests in the same subjects. It"s quite possible
that, by the year 2030,every child in every school will do all their school- work on their own laptop with all
their textbooks available (现成可使用的) on the Internet. No more heavy books to carry around and no more
pens and paper!
At work, we already use email to deal with people both inside and outside our offices and video
conferencing (电话会议) is occur- ring more frequently. This means that meetings can be held between offices
in different countries without the trouble caused by business travel. Business travel will stop to exist in the
future, and so will offices as people all start to work from home.
It has also become a trend for people to use pocket computers such as Blackberries. With this helpful
equipment, people can send and receive emails, surf the Web, and read multimedia files from absolutely
anywhere even if we are on a beach holiday.
The Internet will have a revolutionary (突破性的) effect on entertainment in the future. Already we can buy
and download music and movies from the Internet but it is still possible for us to buy a CD or go to the DVD
stores to rent the latest movies. However, it"s quite possible that in the future, CD shops and DVD rental stores will close and cinemas will no longer exist. Entertainment will be- come completely virtual although hopefully
people will still want to get outside to play sports and entertain themselves in more healthy ways.
With the Internet we need only relax in the rocking chair. The Internet, however, has problems to be solved.
B. play an interesting part in
C. act a cruel character in
D. have an important effect on
B. virtual classes can make students" dream of getting rid of their schoolbags come true
C. people can be kept informed anytime and anywhere with the help of convenient equipment
D. people won"t have to make business travel any more thanks to the video conference
B. Bad effects the Internet can have on us.
C. More excitements the Internet will bring us.
D. The likely ways to solve the problems.
B. Goodbye, textbooks and offices!
C. What will future life be like with the Internet?
D. How can human beings deal with the Internet?

children, co-workers and bosses, a new global study shows.
The online study of 28,153 people in more than 51 countries by global marketing and information firm
Nielsen found that as the world struggles with a recession (衰退) and financial (经济) mar kets keep falling,
many people are reminding themselves that money can"t buy happiness.
The Nielsen Happiness Study found that globally, women are happier than men in 48 of the 51 countries
surveyed in August 2009,and only in Brazil, South Africa and Vietnam were men found to be happier than
women." Because they are happier with noneco nomic factors, women"s happiness is more recession-proof
which might explain why women around the world are happier in general than men are," Nielsen Vice Ptesident
of Consumer Research Bruce Paul said in a statement.
Japanese women reported the greatest difference and are 15 percent happier than Japanese men. Women
are also more optimistic about the future, scoring higher than men on predictions (预言 ) of their happiness
in the next six months.
Women were also more pleased with their marriage life, the study found. Japanese and New Zealand
women reported the grea test. difference in satisfaction with their marriage life.
Men are generally happier with their physical health than women, and this is especially pronounced in
South Africa. Egypt bucks the trend (趋势), with women rating their happiness with their health much higher
than men.
Globally, men rated their happiness with their mental health higher than women. It was the same in Belgium, South Korea, Mexico, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Egypt, and Israel.
There are three main factors of happiness globally, according to the study: personal financial situation,
mental health and job/ca- reer. Being satisfied with your partner is also important for happi ness.

C. the future, mental health and money

C. follows
D. continues
B. Women in Vietnam are not as happy as men.
C. Women score higher than men on predictions of their future.
D. Women"s happiness is less likely affected by financial crisis.

nightly routine. Let them go to sleep feeling loved and good about themselves, even if you have been fighting.
I have a seventeen-year-old son who hugs every- day.
Every night before he goes to bed we do a devotional together and pray. I will continue this with him as
long as he is under my roof. I have showered him with love his whole life, as well as my family, and he is
one of the most loving kids I have ever seen. Every human being needs physical touch, especially young
children and teenagers. We need 7 hugs a day to be healthy. Each hug we receive rtuses our hemoglobin (血
红素). And as one of the other parents had commented, so many teenagers that do not get any physical touch
at all from their parents will seek to get it in inappro priate ways. We only have them for just a little while, they
will soon be gone and we won"t be able to show them our love then! Shower them every single day! You will
never regret it and they will always feel loved!
My nephew, who is like a son to me, started to become embar rassed at around age 13 for me to hug him
in public. I would only get to see him on the weekends and the first time he pulled away we were at a baseball
game and there were people everywhere. I just grabbed and hugged even harder when he tried to pull away
and said" I don"t care if you like it or not! I love you so much and I will hug you every time I see you! "He
turned very red but smiled.
Dr. Dobson says that our teenagers need our love and care e- yen more as they grow older because of all
of the self-doubt that the media puts on them to be perfect. Make them feel loved every day! If you don"t do
it, who will? It may be uncomfortable at first but I promise it will just become second nature if you do it every
day!
B. Work
C. Bath
D. Habit
B. hug more than seven times every day
C. never hug because he is a shy boy
D. never hug because he is independent
B. help you keep in a good condition
C. make your study better at school
D. help you make more friends
B. He was shy but accepts the hugs happily.
C. He laughs at the author"s performance in public.
D. He finds more reasons to refuse the author"s demand.

if circumstances change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christ- mas greetings for a year or
two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years
later, they pick up the friendship where it left out and are de- lighted.
In the United States, you can feel free to visit people"s homes, share their holidays, enjoy their lives without
fear that you are tak ing on a lastinS obligation (负担). Do not hesitate to accept hospi tality (热情款待) because you can"t give it in return. No one will expect you to do so for they know you are far from home. Americans
will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospi tality easily.
Once you arrive there, the welcome will be full, warm and re al. Most visitors find themselves readily
invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain (招待) at home,
offering what is felt as only home-cooked food, not " doing something for your guest". It is felt that restaurant
entertaining shows more respect and welcome. Or for other different reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties, or family custom, out- siders are not invited into homes.
In the United States, both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a person to
one"s home than to go to a public place, except in purely business relationships. So, if your host or hostess___,
do not feel that you are being shown inferior (差的,低级的 ) treatment.
Don"t feel neglected (被轻视的) if you do not find flowers a- waiting you in your hotel room, either.
Flowers are very expensive there, hotel delivery is uncertain, arrival times are delayed, changed, or canceled
(取消)-so flowers are not customarily sent as a welcoming touch. Please do not feel unwanted! Outward
signsvary in different lands, the inward welcome is what matters, and this will be real.

was once treated as a joke more fit for cartoons than real life. But now it is being consid ered quite seriously
by many nations, especially since scientists have warned that the human race will outgrow its fresh water
supply faster than it runs out of food.
Glaciers (冰川) are a possible source of fresh water that has been overlooked until recently.
Three-quarters of the Earth"s fresh water supply is still tied up in glacial ice, a reservoir of untapped fresh
water so huge that it could carry on all the rivers of the world for 1,000 years.
Floating on the oceans every year are 7,659 trillion metric tons ofice covered in 10,000 icebergs that break
away from the polar ice caps, more than ninety percent of them from Antarctica.
Huge glaciers that widen over the shallow continental shelf give birth to icebergs throughout the year.
Icebergs are not like sea ice, which is formed when the sea itself freezes, rather, they are formed entirely on
land, breaking off when glaciers spread over the sea. As they flow away from the polar region, icebergs
sometimes move mysteriously in a direction opposite to the wind, pulled by subsurface currents. Because they
melt more slowly than smaller pieces office, icebergs have been known to drift as far north as 35 degrees
south of the equator in the Atlantic Ocean. To hold them and guide them to parts of the world where they are
needed would not be too difficult.
The difficulty appears in other technical matters, such as the prevention of rapid melting in warmer
climates and the guiding of fresh water to shore in great volume. But even if the icebergs lost half of their
volume in drawing, the water they could provide would be far cheaper than that produced by removing salt
from water.
B. The huge glaciers bring too many floods recently.
C. The warning from scientists and the serious situation.
D. There are too many icebergs waiting for being dealt with.
B. succeeding in passing
C. taking seriously
D. failing to notice
B. Climate changes and practical actions.
C. The slow moving speed of the icebergs.
D. The time of waiting the icebergs" melting.
B. Get Fresh Water From Icebergs
C. Solve the Problem of Water Shortage
D. Look for a Better Way to Get Water

space walk the year before last, you"d think China would be happy. _____. That, at least, is the opinion of a
new book written by a group of Chinese authors.
China Is Not Happy was published in March,2009.It is a fol low-up to the 1996 work China Can Say No,
a bestseller that complained about the influence of the West and the US in particular, on China. Thirteen years
later, the authors of China Is Not. Happy list their dissatisfaction with how China is being treated in the world
today.
They argue that China needs to use its growing power and eco nomic resources to build its own position
of preeminence (卓越). "From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this
world." the book says.
The authors single out the US for special scorn (轻蔑)."The economic problem has shown the Chinese
people that America does have problems, that what we"ve been saying is right," said one of the authors.
The book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores. Yet much of the response to the book has
been negative. Several re- views in the Chinese media have criticized the book"s radical (激进的) opinions. The
book is a way to" fish money from the pockets of the angry youth and angry elderly," wrote one critic in the
China Youth Daily. Meanwhile, a well-known sociologist, Li Yinhe, has said that China needs patriotism (爱国
主义),but there is a limit.
In her blog she wrote,"If we are to bully (欺负) other countries, take the world"s resources and try to lead
it, we"re going over the top."
