第四部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，共40分）

A high-level official at China Central Television and 11 others have been detained(拘留) by Beijing Police over Monday night’s fatal fire that caused extensive damage to a building designed to house part of the broadcaster’s new headquarters, the municipal public security said yesterday.

Xu Wei, who was in charge of site construction, was taken to a police station in Beijing’s central business district after the fire burned the 30-story building, according to a bureau spokesman, who said they doubt Xu was to blame for starting the fire by using banned fireworks. China’s top prosecutors（检察官） revealed yesterday that a section of the local prosecutors office that deals with dereliction of duty （玩忽职守）is involved in the investigation.

Xu, born in 1959, is a native of Beijing and began working for CCTV in 1983. Three other CCTV workers and eight employees of a Hunan Province fireworks company that was hired to provide the fireworks display were also detained, the spokesman said.

Monday marked the Lantern Festival, the end of the Lunar New Year celebration and the last day fireworks were allowed in downtown Beijing for the annual holiday period. Some CCTV workers said they received a message inviting them to a grand fireworks display at 8 a.m. outside the nearly completed building. When flames rose from the structure, which houses some CCTV facilities as well as the unopened Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the eight fireworks operators fled, authorities said. Police caught the group in Langfang on the Beijing-Hebei Province border the next day.

A Beijing government spokesman said the fireworks were extremely dangerous and required government approval before they could be set off. He said CCTV had not received approval and that its workers ignored police warning about lighting the display. A source close to CCTV who refused to be named said CCTV spent 1 million yuan on the festive explosives this year. One firefighter died from breathing toxic fumes and six firemen and a construction worker were sent for hospital treatment. 56. Which of the following is TRUE according the passage? A. The CCTV main building was burned down. B. A deadly fire burned a new CCTV building. C. Altogether 12 people have been put in prison. D. The burned building cost one million yuan.

57. What do we know about the burned CCTV building? A. It was yet to complete.

B. It stands in Beijing’s central business district. C. There are 30 stories told about it.

D. It includes a hotel that was then in business. 58. From the passage we know that______.

A. fireworks are completely forbidden in Beijing

B. the fire was caused by misused electrical appliances C. men of CCTV had ignored the danger of fireworks D. CCTV had a great loss that is worth 1 million yuan 59. The best title for the passage is ______. A. Fireworks Cause Fatal City Fire

B. Head of CCTV to Blame for Building Fire C. Misuses of Electricity Results in CCTV Fire

D. Dereliction of Duty Leads to CCTV Building Fire B

Money, jewels and important documents are not the only valuables placed in banks these days. Some mothers store their breast milk in banks.

There’re ten breast banks set up across the United States, where mothers can donate their extra milk for other women’s babies. Experts say breast milk is the best food for babies. The World Health Organization says it is the only food babies should get during the first six months of life, in most cases. Breast milk is especially important for babies born too early. Sometimes these premature babies must stay in the hospital for many weeks.

James Cameron is a doctor who treats newborns at Lutheran Children’s Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He says breast milk is almost like medicine. Doctor James Cameron said, “The fact is that there are so many different proteins and specialized sugars in the breast milk that the mom’s able to make that help provide immunity(免疫力). It’s very important for the health of the newborn.”

There are several reasons some mothers may not be able to breastfeed. Some are not able to produce enough milk. Others might be taking medicines or have medical problems that prevent the process.

Lucy Baur lives near Fort Wayne. She fed her milk to both her children and always had more milk than they needed. She wanted to donate to the Indiana Mothers Milk Bank in Indianapolis. But freezing and shipping milk can be costly. Then, a donor station opened near her home.

Milk donations in the United States work like this: Donors must be willing to provide almost three liters of breast milk. They freeze the milk and take it to the station. There, employees warm the milk and mix it with other mothers’ milk. Then, the milk is heated to kill bacteria. After that, the technicians test samples of all the milk to make sure it is safe and healthful. The milk is re-frozen and sent to the main milk bank. The milk bank transports the milk to hospitals to feed premature or sick babies. Donors are tested for diseases before any milk is accepted. They are not

permitted to smoke tobacco, use illegal drugs or drink too much alcohol. 60. The purpose of setting up breast milk banks is to_____. A. store extra fresh milk for school children B. provide milk to children who go hungry C. help mothers donate milk to other babies D. offer free breast milk to premature babies

61. The breast milk is important for newborns because_____. A. it protects them from any possible disease B. it contains rich nutrients that they need C. it is the only food that babies can eat D. it benefits them as the best medicine

62. The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to____. A. milk bank employees B. milk bank doctors C. milk bank nurses D. breast milk donors

63. Which of the following shows the process of milk donations in the USA? a. The mixed breast milk is heated to kill bacteria.

b. Breast milk is donated by mothers, frozen by them and sent to the stations. c. The breast milk samples are tested for safety reason.

d. Different donors’ breast milk is warmed and mixed together by the station. e. The milk is frozen again and sent to the main milk bank. A. bdace B. bcdea C. badec D. cbaed C

The World Health Organization has moved swine flu to the “post-pandemic phase（后流行阶段）” after many countries-including the UK-scaled down their swine flu emergency measures. But now a new bug from India-called New Delhi Metallo-I has caused fears over its potential to spread worldwide because of its resistance to almost all antibiotics（抗生素）.

So far 37 cases have been reported across the UK, mainly among patients who have had surgery or other treatments in foreign countries.

But many medical experts believe the bug won’t be as severe as swine flu. Dr. Bashir Malik, a doctor said, “What has happened is down to medical tourism. People go to places like India and end up with the bug and bring it back into UK. Often when people fall ill they get antibiotics when they don’t really need them, or they stop taking them after a few days and don’t follow the course. This enables bacteria to get more resilient（适应性强的） and become more difficult to treat. It’s good that the arrival of the new bug is being talked about, and it will make the public more aware. “However, I don’t think it’s going to be on the same scale as the swine flu pandemic.” At its peak August, 2009, more than 2,500 people a week were falling ill with suspected cases of swine flu across the UK. NHS South of Tyne and Wear spent ￡600,000 on trying to deal with it, which killed more than 450 lives across Britain. There have been no reported cases of the new superbug-which causes fever

among other symptoms-in this district, and bosses at South Tyneside District Hospital are confident that they can keep it under control.

There are fears that 65,000 would be killed by swine flu, but now the decision by the WHO show the virus is only circulating at relatively low levels, in most cases on average with seasonal flu activity.

Dr. Margaret Chan said, “The world is no longer in phase six of the pandemic alert. We are now moving into the post-pandemic period. The new H1N1 virus has largely run its course.”

64. Why did the new bug from India cause fear? A. Because it is another kind of swine flu. B. Because it can cause an immediate death. C. Because it will soon spread around the world. D. Because very few antibiotics can cure it. 65. What makes bacteria more difficult to treat?

A. People get antibiotics a few days after falling ill. B. People don’t get antibiotics when they get ill.

C. People get antibiotics unnecessarily when they get ill. D. People don’t follow doctors’ advice on medicine taking.

66. Why does the writer compare the new bug from India with the swine flu? A. To take away the great fear from the public. B. To warn that many will be killed by the former. C. To indicate that both have come to their end. D. To warn WHO of a new high-level disease.

67. The writer of this passage believe that New Delhi Metallo-I______. A. will be even more serious than swine flu. B. will not be so terrible as it is expected. C. will be the biggest killer as a superbug.

D. will not do harm so long as no tours are made. D

BEIJING, July 28 (Xinhua)-Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has called for measures to boost（促进） pig farming as short supply has led to continued pork price hikes, causing concerns among consumers and the government over a possible spillover effect on inflation（通货膨胀）.

Wen urged local government to leave no stone unturned in raising the enthusiasm of pig breeders when addressing an executive conference of the State Council on Wednesday.

The country’s pig production fell dramatically in recent months on pig breeders’ dampened enthusiasm due to rising feedstuff costs and low price in the past few years, and also the massive pig culling（淘汰） after the outbreak blue-ear disease in some regions.

The short supply of live pigs kept driving the pork price higher. The wholesale

price of pork in June represented a 74.6-percent surge from the same month last year.

Wen said it’s of great importance to increase pig production, which would help stabilize the pork price and satisfy the meat demand of the public.

He called on local governments to deliver the subsides（补助金） for breeding female pig to farmers arranged by the central budget “as soon as possible”.

In order to strengthen disease control, Wen said immunization（免疫接种） against major pig epidemics shall be provided to farmers free of charge, and that subsidies shall be offered to farmers if their pigs have to be killed for disease control. The premier said local administrative chiefs shall hold responsibility for pork supply in their areas, and that all unreasonable restrictions on pig farming shall be abolished.

Local governments shall also increase or pay allowances for lower-income families and college students to ensure their living standards are not adversely affected by the higher pork prices, Wen said.

68. At the conference Premier Wen Jiabao called on to______. A. raise more pigs to stop pork price rise. B. supply more pork to ease inflation. C. show more concern for the consumers. D. take measures to build more pig farms.

69. The underlined word “hikes” in the first paragraph means_____. A. drops B. rises C. changes D. delays

70. Which of the following groups is the reason for the pig production fall? A. High feedstuff costs, high pork prices, massive pig killing

B. Pig disease breakouts, high pork prices, lower pig-raising enthusiasm C. High feedstuff costs, low pork prices, massive pig killing D. High feedstuff costs, low pork prices, pig disease breakouts

71. Before the problem is actually solved, Wen Jiabao hoped that the local

government should _______.

A. help to keep the living standards of some particular groups of people B. do away with all the unreasonable restrictions on pig farming C. lower the pork price by importing more pork from abroad

D. provide pig breeders with free immunization against big pig disease.

Countless drips of water lead to a vast sea；every single tree is an element of a large forest，as well，we common, people as individuals，consist of the society. In order to achieve a goal，everyone ought to make his own contributions.

We are often advised，by people around，to choose those specific popular majors in university in the future，for they think we will be able to enjoy a happier and easier life after graduation if we are doctors，engineers or government officials. However，as far as I am concerned，as long as an individual is contributing his or her part to the society，he or she should be respected，no matter how low the class of his job is. As the above picture shows， if every one of us successfully assumed our responsibility，our earth will become a lovely home for human being.
