TOKYO,Japan—An
earthquake measuring 8.0 hit the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido early
Friday.The quake was the strongest anywhere in the world this year.Several million
people live on the island.Japan's national broadcasting agency,NHK,reported 236
people had been hurt,but no deaths had been reported.Tsunami waves measuring
about 3 feet (1 meter) began hitting the eastern coast of Japan's northernmost
island,and officials warned all residents in the region to seek higher ground.A
fire broke out at oil refinery on the island after the earthquake,and
television stations reported a train derailment and a landslide near a highway
tunnel.The U.S. Geological Survey measured the quake at 8.0 but authorities in
Japan initially gave it a magnitude of 7.8.The USGS said the temblor was
located 33 kilometers (20 miles) under the Earth's crust,about 796 miles north/northwest
of Tokyo,and began at 4:50 a.m.local time (1950 GMT).The second quake occurred at 6:08 a.m.(2108 GMT).
On average,there is one magnitude-8,or
greater,quake a year in the world.The amount of energy released (释放) in a magnitude-8 earthquake is equivalent to that
contained in 1.01 billion tons of TNT,according to the USGS.A tsunami watch has
been issued for the U.S.state of Hawaii.&Based on all available data,a
tsunami may have been generated by this earthquake that could be destructive on
coastal areas even far from the epicenter,&said the announcement from the
National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program.Only six days ago a 5.5-magnitude quake
shook Japan.The September 20 earthquake was centered nearly 870 kilometers (540
miles) south-southeast of Tokyo, near Japan's Bonin Islands,a remote volcanic
island group in the Pacific Ocean.Earlier this month,Japan marked the 80th
anniversary of a magnitude 8.3 quake that devastated Tokyo and neighboring
Yokohama,killing at least 140,000 people.In January 1995,a magnitude 7.2
temblor in Kobe killed more than 6,000 people.

NEW YORK—About
600 million children,or one in four worldwide,will be Jiving in areas with
extremely limited water resources by 2040,according to a report released by the

in areas with low access to safe water.&
&In a changing climate,we must change
the way we work to reach those who are most Vulnerable,&UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake said.&One of the most effective ways we can do that
is safeguarding their access to safe water,making n a key issue in the fight to
eradicate extreme poverty.&

ARLANDA, Sweden （Reuters Life!）—Many people hate the idea of having to sleep on a plane. But Swedish
entrepreneur Oscar Dios thinks they can be persuaded otherwise and he has
created a new kind of hostel to prove it.
Dios says it is the
world’s first jumbo （unusually large） jet hostel, an actual
jet-plane at Sweden’s main airport outside Stockholm
which has been changed into a 25- room guesthouse that sleeps as many as 72
“I learned about this plane that was standing deserted at
Arlanda airport and I’ve
been trying the concept of hostels in many different houses and buildings,” he told Reuters. “I thought, ‘Why not a plane?’”
Jumbo Hostels opened
for business on Thursday, giving customers the chance to check in and sleep in
a room that can best be described as comfortable.”
“The most challenging part with this project is trying to
build something inside a metal hull（壳） – it’s just really, really tight.”
The jet, which was
originally produced for Singapore Airlines, was taken out of service in 2002.
It is held on a concrete foundation with the landing gear secured in steel
One feature of the
hostel is its price – a
room starts at 350 Swedish crowns （about $ 41）, which is a lot less than hotel rooms outside of major airports.
Another feature is
that customers can get married on the wing of the plane and stay in the plane’s more luxurious honeymoon suite （套房）.
Instead of walking
down the aisle in the church, lovebirds can take what Jumbo Hostels calls the “wing walk,”
where they can be joined in great happiness at the wing tip. The hostel has
someone ready to perform the ceremony.
But in some respects
this hostel remains a plane – most customers have to share the jet’s nine
bathrooms and the staff only wear air host and hostess outfits. The only room
that has its own bathroom is the honeymoon suite.
5． Which of the following is not true?
A. The jet plane was
out of use for over eight years
B. The hostel
provides ten bathrooms for customers
C. The rooms in the
hotel are comfortable
D. The hostel lies
at Arlanda airport in Stockholm
6． One of the features of the plane
hostel is that &&&&&&&&.
A. air hostesses can
offer good service
B. a wedding
ceremony can be held on the wing&&&&
C. customers can
sleep in comfortable rooms&&&&&&
D. the staff can
have a “wing walk”
7． Why does Oscar Dios make jet plane
A. Because he is
fond of plane very much.
B. Because he is
very curious
C. Because he wants
to earn more money.
D. Because he likes
trying the concept of hotel in many different things.
8． The writer mainly wants to &&&&&&&&&.
A. call on people to
make use of the deserted things
B. describe a
wonderful place for weddings
C. introduce a new
kind of hostel&&&&
D. prove people can
sleep on a plane&&

FLORENCE, Italy—Svetlana
Cojochru feels hurt. The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to
Italian kids and elderly, but in order to stay she’s had to prove her language
skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary
friend and answer a fictional job ad.
Italy is the latest Western European
country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民)
population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits, or in some
cases, citizenship.
Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard
financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs, such measures
will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration(融合). Others say it’s only natural that newcomers learn
the language of their host nation, seeing it as a condition to ensure they can
contribute to society.
Other European countries laid down a
similar requirement for immigrants, and some terms are even tougher. The
governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and
promote understanding across cultures.
Italy, which has a much weaker tradition of immigration, has witnessed a sharp
increase in immigration in recent years. In 1990, immigrants numbered some 1.14
million out of Italy’s then 56.7 million people, or about 2 percent. At the
start of this year, foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a
total population of 60.6 million, or 7.5 percent, with immigrants’ children
accounting for an ever larger percentage of births in Italy.
Cojochru, the Moldovan caregiver, hoped
obtaining permanent residence(居住权) would help her bring
her two children to I they live with her sister in Moldova, where salaries are among the lowest in Europe. She was skeptical that the language
requirement would encourage integration.
Italians always ＂see me as a foreigner,＂ an
outsider, even though she’s stayed in the country for years and can speak the
local language fluently, she said.
28. Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?
A. To continue to stay in Italy.&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&& B.
To teach her children Italian.
C. To find a better job in Italy.&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&& D.
To better mix with the Italians.
29. Some people worry that the new language requirement may ________.
A. reduce Italy’s population quickly&&&
&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&& B.
cause conflicts among people
C. lead to financial
difficulties&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&& D.
put pressure on schools
30. What do we know about Cojochru?
A. She lives with her sister now in Italy.
B. She enjoys learning the Italian
C. She speaks Italian well enough for her
D. She wishes to go back to her home

the first city in the United States to enforce a limited ban on super-sized
soda drinks blamed by Mayor Michael Bloomberg for fueling a national obesity

sad that the board wants to limit our choices. We are smart enough to make our
own decisions about what to eat and drink.& she said in a statement.&&&&&&&

basketball stadium for the Brooklyn Nets announced it will immediately adopt
the rules, well ahead of the March 12 deadline. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
&&& The measure generated a stormy debate,

majority of people opposed the ban.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
&24. Why does New York enforce the limited ban on
super-sized soda drinks?&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

drinks are of harm to health. &

drinks cause the nation overweight.

drinking soda drinks.

The head of China's largest online seller Alibaba does not think China and the United States will have a trade war despite comments from the Trump administration.
Jack Ma is the chairman of the Alibaba Group. At the World Economic Forum
meeting in Davos, Switzerland, he said, &China and (the) U.S. will never have a trade war. Give Trump some time. He's open-minded, he's
listening.&
Chinese billionaire said he would do all he could
to prevent trade relations between the countries from getting worse.
Last week, Ma met with Trump at the Trump Tower in New York City. The Chinese
billionaire is said to have discussed a plan to permit one million small U.S. businesses to sell goods on Alibaba's online shopping platform.
During the campaign and after winning the presidential election, Trump strongly
criticized the Chinese government's support for its businesses. He blamed
unfair trade policies for taking away U.S. jobs. And he said that China unfairly controls the exchange value of its currency, the yuan.
Trump also has threatened to place import taxes on goods from China and other countries in response to their trade policies.
to the South China Morning Post, Ma said, &American international
companies made millions and millions of dollars from globalization.& He
added that the U.S. should not blame the loss of jobs and companies on
globalization.
However, a new study by an American business group says many U.S. businesses feel unwelcome in China. The companies say the cost of doing business in China is increasing. They add that rules and regulations are unclear or not enforced in a
consistent way.
The American Chamber of Commerce in China led the study, which looked at
responses from 462 companies.
William Zarit is chairman of the chamber. He says trade policies in China make it difficult for American companies. He says, &we feel that over the last
few years that we've been taken advantage of to some extent, with our open
market and the lack of open areas in the Chinese market.&
Another major concern for U.S. companies in China is fake products. Fake
products are copies of the originals that cost businesses with the legal right
to sell them millions of dollars each year.
Ma defended Alibaba's efforts to fight fake products on its shopping platform.
He said his company is doing all it can to fight the problem.
against fake products is a war against human greediness,& Ma said.

WASHINGTON—There are more than 222million TVs in
American homes. And it would make Frank Vespe very happy this week if every
last one was turned off.
Vespe is the head of the TV-Turnoff Network. the Washington
organization behind TV Turnoff Week. For TV Turnoff week, American children are
encouraged to go one week without watching TV. This year, it runs from April
23~29.“Our real message here is to see what life is like without TV and then
make watching TV a conscious（自觉的) decision,”said Vespe.
Vespe said that most of the children who go without television for a
week go back to watching, but not so much.“They watch more selectively. They do
more things as a family. It helps them put TV in its place.”One girl who is
turning off her TV is Sarah Foote, 9.of Virginia. Sarah admits that it won’t be
too hard to give up TV. She’s allowed to watch only educational television, and
he favorite show from last year isn’t on any more.
Of course, there are plenty of things about TV: programs can be
entertaining, even educational.
Even so, some experts aren’t sure TV Turnoff Week is the answer.
Susan Neuman, a university educator who studies children and reading
,says the real problem is that parents do not keep track of what their children
are watching. They don’t set limits on TV watching. Also, in some families, TV
might be the only thing to do.
What message does Sarah have for other children?
“It’s a very good idea. I spent a whole week without TV. It also
teaches you to enjoy time doing different things and not being sucked into
something on TV, because you don’t want TV taking up all of your time.”Sarah
30. From the first two paragraphs we know
that&&&&&&& .
A. American TV companies will be turned off

sets.&&&&&&&&& &&&&&&&&&&& B.

LONDON—Manchester is Britain’s fattest city, a survey for “Men’s Health”
has found, beating Glasgow for the first time since the magazine started
examining the issue three years ago.
Editor Pete Muir said the survey had looked at a variety of factors(因素) from gym membership to heart disease rates to find
the fattest city. “Manchester has more fast food restaurants than anywhere else
in the UK,” he told Reuters. “People are taking the easy choice —eating and
then just sitting in front of the TV.”
Manchester’s problem is part of a wider
trend(趋势). On Thursday, the Office of National
Statistics (ONS) blamed(责备) a lack of exercise and poor diet for a
fifth of adult Britons being obese(过度肥胖的).
“Obesity is a major risky factor related to heart disease, diabetes and
premature death(糖尿病和早亡),” said an ONS survey. “None of the 108
young men in the survey reported eating five portions of fruit or vegetables on
average each day.”
In Manchester, the head of the city’s
public health programs said he did not believe that they were necessarily the
fattest city, but that they did have problems and were aiming to address them.
Social deprivation(贫困) was a major factor. “One of the myths is
that the stressed-out(压力大的) rich businessman is the one who is
overweight,” David Regan told Reuters. “In fact, it is the poor areas that have
the most problems. We aim not to be the fattest but the fittest city but we
have a long way to go.”
Second in the survey is Stoke-on-Trent,
followed by Liverpool, Swansea and Leicester. Glasgow is sixth.
32. Manchester took the place of ____________ and became Britain’s
fattest city.
A. Liverpool&&& B.
London&&& C. Stoke-on-Trent&&& D. Glasgow
33. Obesity may lead to the following EXCEPT _______________.
A. heart disease& B.

A. the reporter from
Reuters&&&&&&&&

PITTSBURGH – For most people, snakes seem unpleasant or even threatening. But
Howie Choset sees in their delicate movements a way to save lives.
&&&&&&&The
37-year-old Carnegie Mellon University professor has spent years developing
snake-like robots he hopes will eventually slide through fallen buildings in
search of victims trapped after natural disasters or other emergencies.
&&&&&&&Dan

&& BEIJING Oct 16 (Friday) (Xinhua)---The Chinese government will enact (将……制成法律)more support policies
to life the country’s 70 million poor people above the poverty line by 2020,
President Xi Jinping pledged（保证）on Friday ahead of the
23rd International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
Addressing the Global Poverty Reduction and Development Forum in Beijing, Xi said China will work to fight the hard battle against poverty. In his speech,
Xi drew on his personal experience in the 1960s working as a farmer in a small
village in northwestern Shaanxi Province, where he was struck by the poor
living conditions in rural China. But over the past several decades, China has made remarkable progress in poverty relief.
China&has lifted
more than 600 million people out of poverty in the past 30 years, accounting
for about 70 percent of those brought out of poverty worldwide. It was the
first developing country to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) target
of reducing the population living in poverty by half ahead of the 2015 deadline.
“Despite the achievements, China remains the world’s biggest developing
country, and narrowing the urban-rural gap remains a big challenge for us,” Xi
As of the end of 2014, China still had 70.17 million people in the
countryside living below the country’s poverty line of 2,300 yuan (376 U. S.
dollars) in annual income by 2010 price standards. The president said poverty&alleviation&will be a major part of China’s post-2015 agenda. While striving to reduce poverty at home, China has also actively supported the cause in other developing countries. Over the past 60
years, China has provided 166 countries and international organizations with
nearly 400 billion yuan in assistance.
China has also announced seven times it would exempt(免除),
without any conditions, the matured inter-governmental interest free loans
owned by heavily-indebted poor countries and least developed countries. At a
United Nations summit last month the goal of eliminating poverty in 15 years
was laid out and China pledged an initial 2 billion U.S. dollars to establish
an assistance fund to help developing nations fight poverty.
In a video message for Friday’s Forum, UN Secretary-General Ban
Ki-moon praised China’s remarkable achievements in poverty alleviation, saying
the UN welcomes those significant and generous proposals from President Xi and
looks forward to further progress with an indispensable partnership with China.
Saturday also marks China’s second National Poverty Relief Day.
28. Which of
the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. President Xi once worked as a farmer in a small village.
B. China has made great contributions to poverty relief in the
past decades
C. China has announced to exempt loans owned by heavily-indebted
poor countries and developed countries
D. The UN thinks highly of China’s extraordinary achievements in
poverty relief
underlined word “alleviation” in the Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to
A. relief&&&&&& &&&&&&B.
line&&&&&&&&& &C.

to the text, National Poverty Relief Day falls on ________.
A. Oct. 16&&&&& &&&&&B.

NEW YORK— Picking a Christmas tree takes most people a few minutes, or a
couple of hours if they head for the woods. Dave Murbach needs 11 months.
Almost every day of every year, Murbach’s thoughts turn to vision of a
perfectly shaped evergreen tree that will take everyone's breath away.
& Murbach is the man responsible for finding the towering tree that makes
more attractive Manhattan’s Rockefeller Center each Christmas season.
& “I'm always looking for a tree,” the center's chief gardener says. “I
look for it even when I go to the beach in the summer. It’s like a homework
assignment hanging over your head.”
& And if he gets it wrong, there's nothing hiding it.
& “Every day it's up, 400,000 people go by, and 2.5 million people watch
the lighting celebration on television,”he says.
This year’s tree, a 74-foot Nomy spruce (云杉) from Richfield, Ohio, flown to New York on the world's largest
cargo plane, was lighted on December 2.
The arrival of the tree leads in the Christmas season in New York — a tradition
dating back to 1931, when the workers building Rockefeller Center put up a small tree with ornaments.&
& The search for the next year's tree starts soon after the old tree is
chopped up for wood chips and horse-jumping logs.
Murbach has three standards: The tree must be at least 65 feet high, at least
35 feet across and leaves dense enough not to see through.
That's not as simple as it sounds. Though forests are full of evergreens, few
get enough sunlight or space to fill out. And branches in snow regions often
break under the weight, making trees unbalanced.
Back at the office, he sorts through hundreds of letters from people offering
their trees, many addressed simply to “Mr. Christmas Tree Man.”
there was occasional anxiety attack and sleepless night, Murbach knows the
effect the tree has on people: “It's for bringing people together, attempting
to bring together people you love. That's what I hope it sets off.” But Murbach
says he's always too worn out to celebrate Christmas.
Which is the correct order of the events in the passage?
a. Murbach’s thoughts turn to a perfectly shaped tree.
b. 2.5 million people watch the Christmas tree.
c. The tree is flown to New York.
d. It was lighted on December 2.
e. The tree is chopped up.
f. Murbach searches for the tree.
A. a, b, c, d, e, f &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B.
c, d, b, f, e, a&&&& C. c, d, e, b, a, f &&&&&&&&&&& D.
a, f, c, d, b, e
Why does Murbach take his job seriously?
A. Because he wants everyone to be happy with his
choice.&&&&
B. Because he hopes to make everybody unable to breathe.
C. Because he enjoys showing
off.&&&&&&&&& &&
D. Because he wishes to attract people's attention to himself.
According to Murbach' s standard of trees, the best tree must _____.
& A. be evergreen &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B.
have lots of space between their branches
C. be tall enough not to see through &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& D.
be equally balanced

WELLINGTON,
New Zealand (AP) ---- About 140 pilot whales that stranded(使...搁浅) themselves
on a remote stretch of New Zealand beach have died, but conservation workers
and volunteers are hoping the remaining 60 or so will survive after they
managed to get them refloated, an official said Saturday.
&&& The geography of Farewell Spit on the South Island seems to
work against whales, which regularly become stranded there. The stranding of
198 whales on Friday was one of the largest in recent years and inspired 80
workers and volunteers to help out.
&&& By late Saturday, 140 of the whales had died, said
Department of Conservation area manager Andrew Lamason.
&&& He said the workers and volunteers worked throughout the day
to keep the surviving whales watered and covered before refloating them during
Saturday night’s high tide.
&&& “We’ve had a really good crew of volunteers, and people have
been wanting to come from all over the country,” Lamason said.
He said the surviving whales had moved to deeper water. But he cautioned that
although hopes for their survival were high, whales had been refloated in the
past only to return and get stranded again.
&&& Lamason said the scale(规模) of the
stranding has been tough on the helpers, both physically and mentally.
“It’s very sad, they’re very intelligent animals,” he said. “The common view is
that it’s part of nature.”
&&& The focus will now turn to the dead whales, and the enormous
task of dealing with the remains, Lamason said, adding that in the past helpers
have typically buried them in the sand, but that he’s not sure what the
approach will be this time.
&&& He said the department had been experimenting with moving
the the dead whales into the water, which has the advantage of providing food
for other sea creatures.
21. What is the exact number of whales stranded last Friday
&&& A. 198&&& &B.140.&&& &C.
80. &&&&D.60
22. Why did the volunteers have to wait until Saturday before they could
refloat the whales
&&& A. Because they were very busy on Friday.
&&& B. Because the whales were too intelligent.
C. Because
they had to wait for the sea water to rise.
&&& D. Because the whales were buried deep in the sand.
23. Which of the following words can be used to describe Lamason’s
attitude towards the
&&& result of refloating the whales
&&& A. Optimistic.&&& B. Doubtful.&& C.
Positive.&&& &D. Careless.
24. How will the volunteers deal with the dead whales this time
according to Lamason ?
&& A. They will bury them in the sand.

C. They will throw them into the ocean.

BEIJING—Family
planning officers will handle the illegal birth case of film director Zhang
Yimou by following legal procedures, a government spokesman said on Tuesday,
December 10, 2013.
When asked to comment on Zhang’s case at a
press conference, Yao Hongwen, spokesman for the National Health and Family
Planning Commission(NHFPC), said “Every citizen is equal before the law and
nobody is allowed to have privileges(特权)to give
birth to more children than allowed.”
comment came after media stories claimed that Zhang had remarried and fathered
a total of seven children: one with his former wife, three with his present
wife, Chen Ting, and another three from two lovers.
“The NHFPC’s attitude towards citizens’
birth violations(违法)is consistent and clear. Every Chinese
citizen should obey and safeguard the seriousness of laws and regulations.”
NHFPC spokesman Yao Hongwen said.
China’s family planning policy, introduced in the late 1970s to slow down the
country’s growing population, limits most urban couples to one child and most
rural couples to two. The policy was recently relaxed, allowing couples to have
children if one of them is an only child.
Those who break the policy face severe
fines. The amount of the fine is generally several times the yearly annual
income of the two spouses(配偶). Some media
calculations put the fine that Zhang may face at as much as 160 million
yuan(over $26 million).
Zhang’s birth case has caused criticism
online about famous people who have more children than the policy allows.
In an open letter on December 1, Zhang
admitted that the couple has two sons and daughter and they are willing to
accept investigation and punishment according to China’s laws and regulations.
He apologized to the public.
However, the letter denied that Zhang had
lovers and was father to as many as seven children from various mothers.
Zhang, one of the “fifth generation” of
Chinese filmmakers, made his first directorial work in 1987 with “Red Sorghum”
and has won a number of award worldwide. He was chief director of the opening
and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games.
25. The purpose of the news report is to_______.
A. claim that Zhang Yimou remarried and
fathered a total of seven
B. inform us that Zhang’s illegal birth
case will be dealt with by the government
C. convince us that Zhang is a famous
director and his case will be pardoned
D. confirm that Zhang’s illegal birth case
has resulted in lots of criticism online
26. According to Yao Hongwen, which of the following
statements is true?
A. Every Chinese citizen should obey and
safeguard laws and regulations.
B. Few people have the privileges to give
birth to more children than allowed.
C. China’s family planning policy has never
been relaxed since introduced.
D. Zhang will be fined as much as 160
million yuan for his violations.
27. Judging from the recent relaxed policy, a couple_______.
A. can have as many as three children if
they live in a rural area
B. will definitely be fined if they have
two children nowadays
C. can give birth to two children if one of
them is an only child
D. can only give birth to two children if
they live in an urban area
