People are talking about the “new economy.” It’s very different from the “old economy”.

In the old economy, people travel to walk. They buy things in stores. They use the post office, the fax and the telephone to send information. They see people face-to-face at their jobs or in stores. People get information from newspapers, radio, television, books and libraries.

In the new economy, people do business through the “net,” which is a connection of millions of computers everywhere in the world. In the new economy, workers often work at home. They can get information online. They can communicate with employers and co-workers by e-mail. Businesses have “virtual stores”. They are websites on which customers can see the products. Businesses can sell to customers anywhere in the world.

In the new economy, people live a fast paced, convenient and colorful life. The whole world develops more quickly than before. But the new economy is a double-edge sword. Its disadvantage is also obvious. For example, the Internet has led to a huge increase in credit card cheating. Some illegal websites offer some cheap or banned goods or services. Online shoppers who enter their credit card information may never receive the goods they want to buy and their card information could even be for sale in an illegal website. So people in the new economy should be smarter and knowledgeable.

The cause of the differences between the new economy and the old economy is ____.

A. the change of people’s idea    B. the business people do

C. the use of the Internet        D. the change of people’s life

In the old economy, people can do the following things EXCEPT____.

A. getting information from books   

B. communicating with friends by telephone

C. meeting people face to face

D. shopping online

“But the new economy is a double-edge sword ” in the last passage means_____.

A. The new economy is as sharp as a sword

B. The new economy has advantages and disadvantages

C. The new economy is better than the old economy

D. Both the new economy and the old economy have disadvantages

Which of the following is NOT true?

A. People can get all kinds of information on the Internet.

B. Telephone, radio, television, newspapers and so on will disappear in the new economy.

C. People in the new economy should have high quality.

D. Life in the new economy is more comfortable than the one in the old economy.

Today is my first day at Merchiston Castle School,and I was really nervous about it, because I have never visited the school before and didn’t take any summer course. Despite my anxiety,I soon relaxed once I arrived; the staff were so nice that I felt my spoken English was better than it actually was! As soon as I walked into the dayroom of my boarding house,I was absolutely(完全地) amazed by the friendly atmosphere; everyone was so friendly that a boy as shy as I had no difficulty in setting in,and I made many new friends on my very first day,although I was struggling to remember all the names.

Also I realized there were other international students in the house from all over the world,such as South Korea,Japan and Russia.Although their English was not so fluent,it didn’t take long for us to understand each other at all.In some ways,it was even better to practice Enlgish by speaking to the international students,because we were both learning.

As a boarder,the quality of food is something I consider very important,and Merchiston has not let me down.The school kitchens are run by a professional catering company,and the quality of food is excellent,also they take the issue of a healthy diet really seriously.I remember once I was asked to take more salad for my meal by a member of the kitchen staff for I did not have enough vegetables.This brings to another point of being a boarder:you need to learn how to look after yourself and be responsible for yourself.One of the huge advantages of being a boarder is that we can have breakfast in the school,which means we don’t have to pull ourselves out of the bed as early as the daypupils!

There’s a man in the habit of hitting me on the head with an umbrella. At first I couldn’t stand it, now I’m used to it.

I don’t know his name. I know he’s average in appearance, wears a gray suit, and has a common face. I met him five years ago one hot morning when I was sitting on a tree-shaded bench in Palermo Park, reading the paper. Suddenly I felt something touch my head. It was the very same man who now, as I’m writing, keeps hitting me, mechanically (機(jī)械地) and impassively, with an umbrella.

On that occasion I turned around filled with anger. He just kept on hitting me. I asked him if he was crazy, he didn’t even seem to hear me. Then I threatened to call a policeman. Calmly, cool as a cucumber, he stuck with his task. After a few moments of hesitation, and seeing that he was not about to change his attitude, I stood up and hit him on the nose. The man fell down, but he immediately got back on his feet, obviously with great effort, and without a word again began hitting me on the head with the umbrella. His nose was bleeding and, at that moment, I felt sorry for him. I felt regret for having hit him so hard. After all, the man wasn’t exactly hitting me; he was merely tapping me lightly with his umbrella, not causing any pain at all. Of course, those taps were extremely bothersome. As we all know, when a fly lands on your forehead, you don’t feel any pain; what you feel is annoyance. Well then, that umbrella was one huge fly that kept landing on my head time after time.

Convinced that I was dealing with a madman, I tried to escape. But the man followed me, wordlessly continuing to hit me. So I began to run (I should point out that not many people run as fast as I do). He took off after me, trying to land a blow. The man was out of breath so that I thought, if I continued to force him to run at that speed, he would drop dead right then and there.

When the man began to strike the author with an umbrella, the author ________.

A. became angry

B. called the police

C. turned around and escaped

D. turned around and fought back

The author would most probably agree that the man was ________.

A. deaf          B. blind           C. dead           D. mad

The author felt sorry for the man because ________.

A. the man formed a bad habit of beating others

B. he hit the man so hard that his nose bled

C. the man couldn’t catch up with him

D. there was a fly on the man’s head

It can be learned from the passage that the man ________.

A. shouted loudly while hitting the author

B. wanted to tell the author something

C. ran after the author breathlessly

D. acted as if he were a fly

    Anyway, everyone needed a fairly good  37  . Many students did poorly when rushed. One of the students thought that he must get a good grade, so he went on when the professor said “  38  down and hand in your exam sheets”.

Five minutes turned into ten, ten into twenty, twenty into forty…almost an hour   39    the test was over, our friend finally put down his pencil, gather up his work, and headed to the front to present his final. The whole time, the professor sat there, strangely waiting for the student to complete.

“What do you think you are doing?” It was clear that the professor had  40  only to give the student a  41   time.

“Turning in my exam,” replied the student confidently.

“I’m afraid I have some bad  42   for you,”the professor gloated(幸災(zāi)樂(lè)禍),“Your exam is an hour late. You’ve FAILED it. And I’ll see you next term when you  43   my course.”

The student smiled slyly(狡詐地) and asked the professor,“Do you know who I am?” “No,”cried out the professor   44  .

The student   45  the professor right in the eyes and said slowly, “I didn’t think so,” so he lifted up one of the   46   half way, put his test neatly into the center of the pile, let the pile fall  47  his test in the middle, turned around, and walked out of the huge lecture hall.

Researchers Look Behind the Tears to Study Crying

Many people found themselves unusually moved by the historic presidential inauguration(就職演說(shuō))last week in Washington Watching the huge crowds，we saw laughter，cheers，hugs-but also many tears

It made us wonder,why dopeople cry?Surely tears must be good for us—away to calm the mind and cleanse the body．Yet studies show that crying sometimes makes people feel worse．

Three researchers in Florida and the Netherlands recently looked more deeply into the subject． They examined detailed descriptions ofcrying experiences．Psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg at the University of South Florida says they wanted to study crying as it happens in everyday life，not in a laboratory．

The team analyzed information from the Intemational Study on Adult Crying．As part of that study，three thousand people in different countries，mostly college students，wrote about recent crying experiences．They noted causes，surroundings and any people involved in the event．They also reported how they felt after they cried．

Professor Roaenberg says the research showed that all crying experiences are not created equal. Crying does not always make a person feel better，he says．About ten percent of people reported feeling worse after they cried．

But a third felt better after crying．And a majority reported the experience as helpful．

The research showed that people who cry alone may not do as well as those with others around． People who reached out for emotional support at the time-and received it-reported better results from the crying experience．

But Professor Rottenberg says those who felt shame or embarrassment while crying were less likely to report that crying had been helpful．

Research has shown that women cry more of ten and more intensely than men．But it may not be to better effect，says the psychologist．The new findings，he says，did not show that a person’s sex was an advantage of beneficial crying．In other words，just because women cry more does not mean they are more likely to have a“good”cry．

The paper entitled”Is Crying Beneficial?”appeared in December in Current Directions in Psychological Scieflce And there is more to learn．Jonathan Rottenberg says the science ofcrying is still in its infancy．

57·Why did the author mention the presidential inauguration in Washington in the first paragraph?

A．Because he was impressed by the laughter,cheers，hugs and tears．

B．Because he wanted to introduce the topic about crying．

C．Because he wanted to show people’s dissatisfaction with the result．

D．Because it was the historic moment that many people cried

58．How did the researchers carry out the research?

A．They studied crying experiences not only in everyday life but also in labs．

B．They collected the crying experiences of the students at the colleges．

C They studied the crying experiences of grown-ups from various countries．

D．They noted their own crying experiencesand compared with others．

59．We can learn from the passage that_______．

A．it may be better to cry alone than with others around

B．some support from others may make crying helpful

C．women who cry more of ten may have better effects than men

D．the effects will be better if you feel shy while crying

60．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means_______．

A．in the early stage   B．in a secret state   C．in the first place    D in good condition
