GAOMI,  Shandong, Oct．11（ Xinhua）—Chinese writer Mo Yan said last Thursday that he was "very surprised" at winning the Nobel Literature Prize．
Speaking to reporters at a hotel in his hometown Gaomi city in east China's Shandong Province, Mo said, "（I was）very surprised upon winning the prize because I felt I was not very senior in terms of qualification（among Chinese writers）．There are many good writers and my ranking was not so high．"
"I am very happy," he said．"I was having dinner when I received the news．I was surprised．”
"Thank you for coming all the way to Gaomi．This should be a season of red sorghum, but no such crop is planted any more．I believe none of you have seen the crop," he said．
"The Nobel Literature Prize is a very important literature prize, but not the top award．It represents the opinions of the jury（評(píng)審團(tuán) ）．I am satisfied with my major works and I still keep writing by hand．My works are Chinese literature, which is part of world literature．They show the life of Chinese people as well as the country's unique culture and folk customs．Meanwhile, my novels described human beings in the broad sense．I wrote in the perspective of a human being．These works stand beyond regions and ethnic groups," he said．
"The folk arts and folk culture accompanied my growth and I was influenced by the cultural elements I witnessed through my childhood．When I picked up the pen for literature creation, the folk cultural elements inevitably entered my novels and affected and even determined the artistic styles of my works," he added．
Mo's win brought joy to other writers and readers throughout the country as he is the first Chinese national to win the Nobel Literature Prize in its century--long history．
Born into a farmer's family in a village in Gaomi, Mo has been known since the late 1980s for his novels such as Big Breasts and Wide Hips and Red Sorghum, which was later adapted into a film by director Zhang Yimou．

Somali pirates(海盜) robbed three Thai fishing ships with 77 sailors on board nearly l，200 miles off the Somali coast，the farthest-off-shore attack to date，an officer said Tuesday.
Pirates have gone farther south and east in answer to increased patrols(巡邏)by warships off the Somali shore. The robbing of the three ships on Sunday was about 600 miles outside the normal operation area for the international force，said a spokesman．
The spokesman said the attack so far out at sea was a clear sign that the international patrols against pirates were having a “marked effect on pirate activity in the area”．
“Once they start attacking that far out，you’re not even really talking about the Somali basin or areas of water that have any connection with Somalia,” said an officer，Ro ger Middleton．“Once you’re that far out，it's just the Indian Ocean，and it means you’re looking at trade going from the Gulf to Asia，from Asia to South Africa.”
"This is the farthest robbing to date．They are now operating near the Maldives and India,”said another officer．
The three ships--the MV Prantalay ll，12，and l 4—had 77 members on board in total．All of them are Thai, the spokesman said．Before the Sunday robbing，pirates held l l ships and 228 sailors．
Pirates have increased attacks over the past year in hopes of catching more dollar payments. Because of increased patrols and defenses on board ships，the success rate(率)has gone down，though the number of successful attacks has stayed the same year over year.
小題1:Which is the best title of the passage?
A．Somali Pirates Robbing Three Thai Fishing Ships.
B．Somali Pirates

C．More patrols are quite necessary even in Asia.

The Cambodian government says more than 378 people died and hundreds more were injured in a stampede (踩踏) during the celebrations of the annual Water Festival late Monday in Phnom Penh.
Less than 24 hours after the tragedy(悲劇), Cambodia's most serious loss of life in decades(十年), the government founded an organization to investigate(調(diào)查) how so many died on what was meant to be one of the nation's most joyous occasions.
Most of the victims(犧牲品) were young people in their teens and twenties. They were some of the estimated(估計(jì)) two million who had flooded to Phnom Penh for the Water Festival, which marks the end of the rainy season.
Most suffocated on the bridge, which thousands of people were using to leave Diamond Island, an entertainment(娛樂(lè)) area in the middle of the river. Others drowned(溺水) after jumping from the bridge into the water.
Buot Panha, 19, said shortly after 9:30 on Monday evening he ended up trapped(圍困) with his friends in the middle of the bridge, fighting to breathe while terrified people struggled all around him.
Being tall saved his life, since he could stretch(伸出) his neck to take in oxygen(氧氣). Shorter people were unable to do that, he says, which may be why two-thirds of the victims were women.
He tried to help a woman who was trapped with two children near him. She was screaming for people to help. Being tall, Buot Panha grabbed(抓住) one child and pushed him above the crowd to help him breathe.
But then some of the young men were told to jump off the bridge into the river to make room. So he handed back the child, squirmed his way to the edge, and jumped.
Some like Buot Panha were fortunate, jumping into the river below and swimming for the shore. But many simply could not move, and died where they lay.
Buot Panha says his first Water Festival will be his last. He vows(發(fā)誓) never to come back.
小題1:The passage is mainly about ________.
A．Water Festival celebrationsB．a(chǎn) stampede in Cambodia
C．a(chǎn) teenager, Buot PanhaD．a(chǎn) woman and her children
小題2:What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A．It is the biggest tragedy in decades in Cambodia.
B．It is the most serious loss of life in decades in Cambodia.
C．The government ordered an investigation.
D．Water Festival is Cambodia’s most joyous occasion.
小題3:The underlined word “suffocated” (in Paragraph 4) probably means ________.
A．breathed inB．felt uncomfortable
C．died from too little oxygenD．left in a hurry
小題4:Most of the deaths were caused as a result of _________.
A．being unable to breatheB．being drowned
C．violenceD．the rainy season
小題5:Which of the following is TRUE about Buot Panha according to the passage?
A．His being tall saved him in the river.
B．He struggled through the crowd to save one child.
C．It was his first time to attend the Water Festival alone.
D．He will never come back to Phnom Penh for the Water Festival.

The Sauna World Championships (世界桑拿錦標(biāo)賽) ended in tragedy at the weekend when one of the two finalists collapsed and died. Vladimir Ladyzhenskiy, a Russian amateur wrestler in his 60s, suffered severe burns in the bizarre(怪誕的) annual event in the southern Finnish town of Heinola. He was pronounced dead late on Saturday after he collapsed alongside reigning (衛(wèi)冕) champion Timo Kaukonen of Finland roughly six minutes into the final round. The “sport” calls on participants to sit in a 230-degree (110 Celsius) room as water was tossed onto a searing stove, officials and witnesses said. Medical workers pulled both men out of the sauna in front of nearly 1,000 horrified spectators.
Both were shaking and bleeding from what appeared to be severe burns, said Hakon Eikesdal, a photographer with the Norwegian daily Dagbladet. Kaukonen, about 40, was in hospital in stable condition Sunday, contest spokesman Ossi Arvela said. The event, which had over 130 participants from 15 countries, had been held since 1999. It will never be held again, Arvela said. A pint of water is added to the stove every 30 seconds and the last person to remain at the sauna is the winner. There was no prize other than “some small things” Arvela said. He declined to provide details. Arvela said Kaukonen — the defending world champion — had refused to leave the sauna despite getting sick. Sauna bathing is a popular past-time in Finland, which has an estimated 1.6 million saunas for a population of 5 million.
Temperatures are normally kept around 158 to 176 degrees (70~80 degrees Celsius). “I know this is very hard to understand to people outside Finland who are not familiar with the sauna habit,” Arvela said. “It is not so unusual to have 110 degrees in a sauna. A lot of competitors before have sat in higher temperatures than that.” Arvela said all rules in Saturday’s competition were followed and the temperatures and times were similar to those in previous years.
小題1:Which of the following is True of Paragraph 1?
A．Only the Russian amateur wrestler suffered severe burns in the Sauna World Championships.
B．Timo Kaukonen won a world sauna championship though he was badly burned.
C．In the Sauna World Championships Vladimir Ladyzhenskiy was badly burned and then died.
D．Both of the finalists were pulled out of the sauna, then they were horrified to death.
小題2:The underlined word “searing” means “__________”.
A．burningB．comfortableC．warmD．extinct
小題3:What can we conclude from the situation after the tragedy?
A．There was no prize other than “some small things”, which the world champion would refuse to accept.
B．Ossi Arvela suggested there were great risks in the sauna contest and it never be held in the future.
C．The contest would be continued in which the temperatures were kept around 158 to 176 degrees.
D．It was unusual to have 110 degrees in a sauna and it was hard to understand to some people outside.
小題4:We can infer from the news that ___________.
A．sauna is so popular that there are often competitions on weekdays in Finland.
B．the temperatures in usual saunas are too high for most people to stand in Finland.
C．the sauna contest is much too horrible even for the spectators in Finland.
D．there is a sauna for more than three people on average in Finland.

TOKYO - Japan is considering plans to calm tensions（緊張）with China by acknowledging(承認(rèn)) Chinese claims to the disputed islands in the East China Sea, while maintaining its own position, Kyodo News cited sources as saying on Tuesday.

Japan has refused to rescind its recent purchase（購(gòu)買(mǎi)） in mid-September of three of the five Diaoyu islands from a so-called private Japanese owner, which the government says was meant to maintain（繼續(xù)）the uninhabited islands in a stable manner, despite China's strong protest.

Do you know what your child is going to do when the school bell rings at the end of the day? More than 14 million students leave school every afternoon and have nowhere to go, since they do not have access to affordable after-school opportunities. According to the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center (NYVPRC), nine out of ten Americans think all youths should have access to after-school programs, but two-thirds of parents say they have trouble finding programs locally. The bad news is that situation may be getting worse.
After-school hours are the peak time for juvenile crimes and risky behaviors, including alcohol and drug use. The NYVPRC states that children who do not spend any time in after-school activities are 49 percent more likely to use drugs and 37 percent more likely to become a teen parent. Kids are also at the highest risk of becoming a victim of violence after school, particularly between the hours of 2p.m. and 6p.m.. The highest amount of juvenile crime occurs between 3p.m. and 4p.m. , when most children are dismissed from school.
The NYVPRC defines after-school programs as safe and structured activities that offer children opportunities to learn new skills. The skills students learn can range from technology and math to reading and art. Some programs also offer opportunities for internship(實(shí)習(xí)), community services , or mentoring. These programs have been shown to improve academic achievements, as well as relieve the stresses on working families. A report by the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of justice shows that students in after –school programs have fewer behavioral problems and more self-confidence , and can handle conflicts better than students who are not involved with these programs. In addition, according to the Harvard Family Research Project, after-school programs help students from low-income families overcome the inequities (不公平) they face in the school system.
小題1:What is the theme of the passage?
A．Prevention of juvenile crimes.
B．Risks kids face after school.
C．A research report on the stresses of students.
D．The benefits of after-school programs.
小題2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

B．Students are not willing to attend after-school programs.
C．It’s difficult for parents to find after-school programs for their children.
D．Parents don’t care about where their children go after school.
小題3:We learn from the second paragraph that __________________ .
A．the teachers should watch over kids after school
B．children are dismissed from school too late
C．a(chǎn)fter-school hours are a risky time for children
D．children should go home immediately school is over

When doctors urge overweight kids to pick up more activities，reading probably isn’t what they have in mind.    Yet a new study by fatness researchers at Duke University finds that the simple act of reading—depending on the choice of material—can cause weight loss in teenage girls.
The study’s experimental group included 31 fat girls aged 9 to 13，who took part in the Healthy Lifestyles Program at Duke Children’s Hospital. The girls read a novel called Lake Rescue，whose protagonist (主人公) is an overweight teenager who struggles with low self­esteem，feelings of loneliness and teasing because of her size. A group of 33 girls read a different book called Charlotte in Paris，which did not have an overweight character，and another group of 17 girls read neither book.
At the end of the six­month experiment，all the girls who read books had lost weight，but the girls who read Lake Rescue lost more. They lowered their body mass index (BMI) by 0.71，compared with 0.33 in the Charlotte group，an average 0.05 increase among the nonreaders.
The idea behind the study，says Dr Sarah Armstrong，director of Healthy Lifestyles，was to find a way to encourage the girls without adopting the restrictive and often authoritative voice of so many other nutrition and diet programs. Lake Rescue was the perfect instrument，says Armstrong；it presents a likable character to whom the girls could relate and whom they could learn from. As the book progresses，its protagonist learns to make healthier lifestyle choices and finds an adviser to help keep her on track. Armstrong says，“She learns that she can become healthier，and the ‘I can do it’ feeling resonates (產(chǎn)生共鳴) with the teenage girls.”
小題1:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．There are different ways to help overweight kids lose weight.
B．Lifestyle is important for kids.
C．Lake Rescue is the perfect weight­losing instrument.
D．Reading can help kids lose weight.
小題2:How many girls took part in the experiment?
A．31.B．33.C．64.D．81.
小題3:What does the underlined word “She” in the last paragraph refer to?
A．Armstrong.B．The protagonist in Lake Rescue.
C．A character in Charlotte in Paris.D．A girl in the first group.
小題4:According to the passage we can know that ________.
A．overweight girls are living unhappily
B．reading is the best way to lose weight
C．different reading materials play different roles in losing weight
D．people will become fat if they don’t read
小題5:In which part of a newspaper can we read the above passage?

BEIJING, July 8 (Xinhuanet)--- A new hotel concept has been realized in a village in Northern Sweden, which aims to make the simple treehouse become a world-class destination for travellers. The Treehotel, located in a place called Harads, will consist of four rooms when it opens on July 17th: the Cabin, the Blue Cone, the Nest, and the Mirrorcube.
Two additional rooms are scheduled to open in October. The long term vision(想象) is even more expansive. “Our goal in five years is to have 24 rooms from 24 different architects,” says Treehotel co-founder Kent Lindvall.
The first six rooms were designed by five different architects. The Mirrorcube which stands four meters high and four meters wide, and the walls of which are made with a mirrored glass, has drawn widespread attention as it will be attached to a single tree. “It’s an interesting building. You can’t find anything else like this in the world today. It’s unique(獨(dú)特的),” says Lindvall. “Everything will reflect in it---the trees, the birds, the clouds and the sun in the forest. So it could hardly be seen in the forest. This is untouched forest and we want to keep it the same way.”
Lindvall says the Treehotel’s vision proves a powerful draw, with enquiries(詢(xún)問(wèn)) coming in from far and wide. “I think what’s exciting here is that we’re just 60 km below the Arctic Circle. It means there’s a good possibility to have the northern lights in the winter and of course to have the midnight sun in the summer.”
The motto of the Treehotel is “Feel Free in a Tree” and expense will cost up to about $555.50 for two guests in the Cube, which is designed to hold up to four guests.
小題1:The underlined word “expansive” probably means _____.
A．costing a lot of money
B．covering a large area
C．requiring knowledge and skills
D．increasing suddenly and rapidly
小題2:According to the passage, the Mirrorcube is a unique building because _____.
A．everything can reflect in it
B．it’s large with plenty of space
C．there is a large mirror wall in it
D．it has limited effect on local wildlife
小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．The Treehotel is ideally situated to enjoy the natural wonders.
B．The Treehotel is a great base to explore the many local places of interest.
C．Travellers can have a relaxed holiday at a reasonable price in the Treehotel.
D．The six rooms of the Treehotel was separately designed by 6 different architects.
