5.It's nothing new that you can find many files or services you can download or use from the Internet.The question is:Is downloading legal or not?In most cases the answer is negative,ecause sharing and downloading are illegal.Of course,you can find files for legal downloading,but you have to pay for them.
It seems innocent if you click on the download mark,but it isn't.It should be compared with stealing in a store.Would you steal a magazine,an MP3player or a car?Downloading from the Internet is a theft,and sharing files,once you have stolen them,only makes it wore.For example,if everybody only downloaded,movies wouldn't make money and the studios wouldn't invest millions of dollars to make new ones.
Many people may think it better,easier and cheaper to do downloading.I think,that is the main reason why Internet users prefer sharing something to buying them.In the modern world we love convenience and what could be more convenient than getting music,films and games without having to leave your house?You don't need to pay for what you get,there is no registration,and you don't have to wait until shops open or the CD/DVD you want is posted to you.However,you could be in big trouble if you are caught.You could go to prison as a result of acting unlawfully,but so far only a tiny amount of people have been charged for downloading illegally.The majority of people who download illegally,and use the files for their personal use,will not get in trouble.And that's why it's important for people to understand what the long-term consequences are if they don't want to pay for their music,films and TV.Will film and music companies still spend millions of pounds every year if they have no chance of making a profit?The answer is plainly"no".
Finally I would like to say that the Internet offers a lot of services for money,but people will always try to get them for free.To sumarize my thoughts I'd like to highlight that illegal downloading is both unfair towards producers and dangerous for those who practise this kind of activity.You have to decide whether to buy or download.

32.Many people download files free from the Internet becauseD.
A.They follow others'examples to do such things.
B.They don't think they may be charged by the producer.
C.They think everything on the Net can be shared by others.
D.They think it is legal,convenient and easy.
33.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?B
A.Downloading helps movies become more popular.
B.Downloading free files is as illegal as stealing.
C.Sharing files on the Internet is dangerous.
D.Sharing files on the Internet can make a profit.
34.What does the underlined word"highlight"in paragraph 4 mean?A
A.Stress             B.Explain           C.Admit          D.Deny
35.What is the author's purpose of writing this text?C
A.He advises readers to download legal files.
B.He asks readers to limit the amount of free downloading.
C.He wants to make it clear that downloading for free is against the law.
D.He tells readers how to avoid being charged for downloading.

6.When Frida Kahlo's paintings were on show in London,a poet described her paintings as"a ribbon (絲帶) around a bomb".Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time.Sadly,she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.
Born in 1907in a village near Mexico City,Kahlo suffered from polio (小兒麻痹癥) at the age of seven.Her spine (脊柱) became bent as she grew older.Then,in 1925,her back was broken in several places in a schoolbus accident.Throughout the rest of her life,the artist had many operations,but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back.However,the accident had an unexpected side effect.While lying in her bed recovering,Kahlo taught herself to paint.
In 1929,she got married to Diego Rivera,another famous Mexican artist.Rivera's strong influences on Kahlo's style can be seen in her early works,but her later works from the 1940s,known today as her best works,show less influence from her husband.
Unfortunately,her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s,even in her home country.Her first onewoman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954,Kahlo's works remained largely unnoticed by the world,but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.

28.What does the underlined phrase"a much bigger name"in Paragraph 1most nearly mean?D
A.a(chǎn) far better artist
B.a(chǎn) far more gifted artist
C.a(chǎn) much stronger person
D.a(chǎn) much more famous person
29.The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused byC.
A.polio   B.her bent spine      C.back injuries  D.the operations she had
30.What is the author's attitude toward Kahlo?B
A.Devotion.B.Sympathy.C.Worry.D.Encouragement.

7.If English means endless new words,difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation,you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?
According to a new study by a British university,learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes(處理) information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles(肌肉).
The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr.Andrea Mechelli,from University College London,took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of"early bilinguals(雙語使用者)"who had learnt a second language before the age of five,as well as a number of later learners.Scans(掃描) showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals who learnt a second language at an early age.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language,the smaller the difference."Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,"said the scientists.
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales,has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills."Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(靈活的),"he said."You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."
The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading,wiring,and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they stared to learn,the better."Studying a language means you get entrance to another world,"explained the scientists.

33.What can we know from Dr.Andrea Mechelli's study in paragraph 3?C
A.A bilingual will be more successful than a person who speaks only one language.
B.The grey matter density in the brain has no difference between early bilinguals and later learners.
C.The structure of a bilingual's brain is being changed during his or her learning.
D.It is never too late to learn a second language.
34.In the last two paragraphs,the author wants to tell us thatB.
A.learning a second language is the same as studying maths.
B.early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjects.
C.Italian is the best choice for you as a second language.
D.you'd better choose the ages between 2 and 3 4 to learn a second language.
35.The main idea of this passage isD.
A.science on learning mother languages
B.man's ability of learning a second language
C.language learning and math study
D.the benefit of learning a second language.
