WASHINGTON:Like many young girls, Sarah first learned to knit(编织) when she was 10,but she wasn't especially active until last year when she started a knitting club in Washington DC to make popular items such as shawls( 围巾), baby blankets and sweaters.
The student at American University has joined the likes of famous people Julia Roberts, Carmeron Diaz,and even Russell Crowe,as a new generation of knitters a young, clever,creative and looking for ways to relax.
Their hobby is no longer considered a "grandmas--only'thing,and they're picking up the craft and expertly picking up lost threads in the process.
A knitting club is a place to share food, drink, and stories as well as knitting techniques.
New Yorker Tara Kates,27,a clinical research associate in New Jersey said she enjoys knitting because "it occupies my mind in a way that still allows me to listen and pay attention to other things around."
Why the new interest in the century--old craft?
The main reasons are it's fun,traditional,and provides some relief from the stress of school,work, and boyfriends, according to Richard Caron, president of the Craft Yarn Council.
But Caron says there are funny reports of men knitting more and visiting knitting shops weekly instead of monthly.
Young men have recently been seen knitting at a Washington concert and a local bookstore.
And, the Internet has in fact, become a knitting circle for shared wisdom, providing knitters with patterns,supplies,and message boards for posting more advanced techniques.
56. After Sarah started a knitting club,she
A. began to learn how to knit B. spent more time knitting
C. became a teacher in the club D. made her living by knitting
57. Many young women take up knitting for the purpose of
A. meeting their boy friends B. saving money on their clothing
C. staying away from school D. making their life colorful

B. it is not allowed for men to knit.
C. knitters can exchange theirs skills by computer.

B
A number of words, like the tails of kites, somehow get tied to the word "dead"-words such as "dead ringer (非常相象的人或物 )”, “dead wood”, “deadbeat”, “dead end”, etc.
Dying is an unpleasant experience. Why even think about it - it is something that should happen to nobody. Yet, the word "dead" has given American English some of its liveliest expressions.
One of the first seems to have arisen in England more than 600 years ago. There was a saying among people that something was as “dead as a doornail (门钉)”.
It is difficult to explain why a doornail is deader than anything else. One can only guess. Perhaps the continual pounding on a doornail would surely put an end to it. One guess is no worse than another.
Nevertheless, the expression, “dead as a doornail”, crossed the ocean and settled down among the American people, who use the word “dead” in endless ways.
For example, Americans say a man that will not start is dead as a doornail. And if it does get moving it may take you down a "dead end" street. Finally, you will find yourself "dead tired", because your engine is making so much noise that you may end in a "dead heat" ——or "dead tie"——with the police who are after you. They may not perhaps, be friendly. They look you over carefully, with suspicion, for they think you are a dead" dead ringer" for some escaped criminal who looks like your twin brother.
This is a most unhappy situation. Only a "deadhead" would reject this good advice ---- turn the car in and get a new one, even if you are "dead broke".
You can always borrow the money from friends, unless you are known to be a "dead beat" -- a man who never pays back. You can prove they are "dead wrong" by paying back the money you borrowed!
60. The sentence "One guess is no worse than another." In the fourth paragraph means .
A. one guess is better than another B. you carl guess in any way
C. one guess is as good as another D. one guess is as bad as another
61. The police will look you over carefully, when .
A. they think you are very like some escaped criminal
B. your engine is making 1oo much noise
C. they find you are just the man they want D. your twin brother is a criminal
62. It can be inferred that .
A. you can borrow the money from friends unless you pay them back
B. you can't borrow the money from friends unless you pay them back
C. you can borrow the money from friends unless you are a man who pays back
D. you can't borrow the money from friends unless you are a man who never pays back
63. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The word "dead" has given American English some of its liveliest expressions.
B. It is difficult to explain why people use the word "dead".
C. The word "dead" is mostly used in the U. S.
D. Don’t be a "deadbeat", otherwise you can’t borrow money from friends.
C
I met Phyllis at camp last summer, right after my graduation. While in the sixth grade,I took a test to get into Creston Art School. When I hadn't done well, I was very disappointed. I felt even more terrible when Phyllis told me she was to learn in Creston.
"I know about Creston. In fact, I took the entrance exam a few months ago. "I said, sounding cool. "You did, Pamela? What happened? "
I didn't want her to know the truth. So 1 said. "They wrote me a special letter, saylng they would like me to come but that I live too far away. They just don't lhink it's right for me to travel so much."
Why did I have to tell her that story? I decided to tell her the truth. But not now. I'd find the time--some other time. However, I didn't seem to find the right time to tell her.
Then suddenly, it was the day before the end of camp. Phyllis and I sat in 1he woods drawing the lake.
"Your drawing is better than mine. How lucky you are to study in Creston." I said.
Then Phyllis spoke, "Pamela, you can try for Creston again in the spring. Don't feel bad about not getting in."
So she knew! But actually she never said, "You are a big liar(说谎的人). You never got into Creston."
Last weekend I went to visit Phyllis. Her friend Joyee came over to meet me. "Where do you go to school?" she asked me.
And without even feeling bad, I said,"I go to Mayfair, I wanted to go to Creston, but I didn't get in. So I'm taking the test again this year. Maybe next time I'll make it."
"I hope so." said Joyee.
'I do, too." Phyllis said, smiling at me.

U.S. adult prisons and jails held a record 1. 82 million inmates (囚犯) last year,meaning one out of every 149 residents was behind bars, the Justice Departmenl reported Sunday.
The department's Bureau of Justice Statistics said in its semiannual(每半年的) report that the prison and jail population at Dec. 31, 1998, rose 4.6 percent, or 80,400 inmates,from 1.74 million inmates in 1997.
"The population has been growing steadily", said Allen Beck of the statistics bureau.
"I don't think there's been a decline(下降) in more than 25 years", Beck said, referring to 1972 when there was a slight decline in the nation's prison population.
Beck also said there is a real decline in serious crime nationally.
Jails are different from prisons because they are locally operated and typically hold persons awaiting trial and those with sentences of one year or less.
In 1997, for which the most recent ethnic(种族的) breakdown is available, the federa(联邦) and state prison population was 49 percent black, 48 percent white, 2 percent American Indian or Alaska Native and 1 percent Asian or Pacific Islander.
The female prison population grew by 6.5 percent over the previous year, compare with the 4.7 percent increase in the number of men behind bars.
There were 14 times more men than women in prison in 1998.
The report said state prisons were operating at a 13 to 22 percent over—capacity while federal prisons were 27 percent over--capacity.

How to protect child Web fans (网迷) from unsuitable material on--line while en couraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the US.

Tell your child not to give on--line strangers personal information, especially detail like address and phone number.
And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on--line over the phone send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go alone.
