She is a cute, quiet girl. As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with her. But recently she has become somewhat mysterious, not so open as before. She has a diary that she keeps under lock and key. Her mother cannot help worrying about her: what if she falls in love, which is too early for a girl of her age. After all she is reaching the “dangerous stage”. These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother’s mind.
One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmate and would return late. This was the first time her mother agreed, and she couldn’t help worrying because her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited till nine and her uneasiness got the upper hand over her. She decided to go out to meet her daughter. Just at that moment the noise of a car pulling up drew her to the window and – there was her daughter, waving goodbye to a boy. Her heart missed a beat. When the girl came in , the mother was watching TV, pretending nothing had happened. “Mum, I’m back.” “Yeah.” “Sorry to be late. Still sitting up?” “Yes, Oh, that… Who’s that boy?” The daughter was stunned (发愣) for a moment. “Ah. It’s my monitor. He gave a lift on his way home. Mum, I’m going to bed.” “All right. Go to sleep early.”
Next morning when the mother went to the daughter’s room to do some tidying, she found her diary left at her pillow. After a few minutes’ hesitation she eventually opened it to the entry of the night before. It reads: Mum, it’s love that made you ask, but it would show your understanding of me if you hadn’t.
Holding the diary, the mother fell in thought.

As a result of pollution, Lake Eric, on the borders of the U.S.A. and Canada, is now without many living things.
Pollution in water is not simply a matter of “poisons” killing large numbers of fish overnight. Very often the effects of pollution are not noticed for many months or years because the first organisms（生物体）to be affected are either plants or plankton(浮游生物). These organisms are the food of fish, birds, and other creatures. When this food disappears, the fish and the birds die too. In this way a whole food chain can be wiped out, and it is not until dead fish and water birds are seen at the river’s edge or on the sea shore that people realize what is happening.
Where do the substances which pollute the water come from? There are two main sources, swage(污水) and industrial waste. As more detergent(洗涤剂) is used in the homes, so more of it is finally put into our rivers, lakes and seas. Detergents harm water birds, breaking down the natural substances which keep their feathers waterproof. Sewage itself, if not properly treated, makes the water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and the sea from receiving the oxygen they need. Industrial waste is even more harmful since there are many highly poisonous materials in it, such as copper and lead.
So, if we want to stop this pollution, the answer is simple. Sewage and industrial waste must be made clean before flowing into the water reservoirs. It may already be too late to save some rivers and lakes, but others can still be saved if the correct action is taken at once.
45. Pollution in water is noticed________.
A. when the first organisms are affected
B. when a great many fish and birds die
C when poisons are poured into water
D. as soon as the balance of nature is destroyed
46. The living things die because there is no ______ in the lake or river.
A. oxygen B. poison C. water D. fish
47. What is the meaning of “waterproof”, the underlined word in the third paragraph?
A. full of water B. covered with water
C. not allowing water to go through D. cleaned by water
48. The way to stop water pollution is _____.
A. to put oxygen into the river
B. to realize the serious situation clearly
C. to make special room in the sea for our waste
D. to make the waste materials harmless
49. Which of the following statements is right?
A. There are many poisonous materials in industrial waste.
B. Sewage is good to fish.
C. Pollution in water does no harm to fish.
D. Birds don’t eat organisms.
C
BANGKOK, Thailand(CNN)- Thailand’s tsunami(海啸) death could reach 8,000, with more than half of those foreign tourists holidaying in the nation’s southern resorts when the disaster struck.
There are more than3,000 visitors from Sweden among the missing in Thailand, and the Scandinavian nation is ready to deal with what could be the worst natural disaster in its history.
Swedes greeted the New Year with a national day of mourning(哀悼) Saturday, flying flags at half-staff and lighting candles for the missing.
Thailand’s Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra said Saturday many of those who were still listed as missing were likely to be dead.
“Many corpses(尸体) will be floating in the sea,” Thaksin said, according to wire reports. “Of the 6,500 missing, it is likely that they could mostly be dead as many days have passed.”
Thailand’s official death count is 4,812.
As the search for bodies continues, Thaksin said his government would investigate why the tsunami warnings largely failed to reach officials and tourist resorts.
“We will have to investigate the whole incident. When it happened, why we were not warned,” Thaksin said in his weekly radio address.
Official at the country’s meteorological department (气象局) did make some warnings before the waves rushed into tourist resorts and fishing villages, but they only got through to a handful of officials, the Associated Press reports.
It is thought around 20,000 Swedes have traveled to Thailand this holiday season, to escape the cold winter of northern Europe.
While only 59 Swedes have so far been confirmed dead, authorities are fearing this tragedy may well become the worst natural disaster in the nation’s history. With a population of only 9 million, Swede’s expected loss of life almost matches that of Indonesia, and only Sri Lanka lost more.
50. Swedes would fly flags at half-stall to ____.
A. memorize the victims(遇难者) in the tsunami
B. emphasize the importance of safety
C. greet the relatives of the victims
D. pray the safety of his citizens in Thailand
51. The tourists from ___ have the largest number of deaths in Thailand except the natives.
A. Sri Lanka B. Indonesia C. Sweden D. China
52.Judging by Thaksin’s words we learn ___ .
A. the 6,500 missing have been proved dead
B. Thailand has the correct number of deaths
C. He was angry at why few people were warned of the tsunami
D. The search for the missing has stopped
53. What’s the main purpose to write this passage?
A. To report Thailand’s tsunami.
B. To scold the Thailand government.
C. To warn visitors not to go to Thailand.
D. To remind the Swedes of the tragedy.
54. Why Swedes like traveling to Thailand in winter?
A. The views there are excellent.
B. They like the weather there.
C. They love the food there.
D. There are beautiful beaches.

One possible version:
Attention,
please! I’m going to give you a
summary of today’s discussion about whether we should go online in our spare
time．
Most students think we
can go online as much as possible in our spare time because we are free then．Through the Internet, we can gain plenty
of the newest knowledge and the latest news at home and abroad．What’s more, network offers us a
convenient way to communicate with each other．The Internet makes our lives outside class colorful and various．
On the other hand, a
few students partly agree to this idea．Going online is part of our daily life but they suggest a time
limit．They’ve found that more
students are playing computer games instead of studying their lessons．There’re also a few students who are often
absent from school for days to go online．
I think we should make
proper use of the Internet．
That’s all． Thank you．
