| As the first woman Chancellor (总理) in German's history, Angela Merkel topped Forbes magazine's list of "The World's 100 Most Powerful Women" in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. She has even been compared to Margaret Thatcher and many people called her "Iron Lady". Merkel was born in Hamburg, West Germany, on July 17, 1954. Six weeks after she was born, her family moved to Templin. As a small child, Merkel quickly learned to speak but took longer to walk. "I was a stupid person when it comes to moving," Merkel said. "A normal person could do something naturally, but I had to think about it in my mind and practice." As a teenager, she was a top student and graduated from high school with perfect marks. In 1973, Merkel went to the University of Leipzig, where she studied physics. At 32, she got her doctor's degree in Physics. She stepped into politics in 1989. In her first big political job as Minister for the Environment in 1994, her scientific background and strong will proved very useful. In 2005, she became Germany's Chancellor. She has been re-elected to a second term as German Chancellor on September27, 2009. Through her political career, Merkel's persistence (坚持) and patience helped her a lot. "She's bright and open-minded," said Hubert Markl. "She is the person who wants to know exactly what is going on, and how never giving up will influence our society and future." |

| My younger sister Joy was fighting her final battle against cancer. I wanted Joy to go into a nursing home (疗养院), but she didn't want to spend her final days there. I couldn't be with her all the time, and she had no other family. God, who would watch over her? Joy and I had come from a medical family. Mom died when my sister was four. Dad was a small-town general doctor in Glenview. His concern for his patients was wholehearted. Sometimes Joy and I had felt overlooked, expecting the attention he seemed to reserve (保留) for his patients. But no matter how busy he'd been all week, Dad would stand on the stairs every Sunday morning, polishing (擦亮) his shoes for church. I called Dr. Croghan, Joy's doctor, hoping she could persuade (劝说) Joy to move into the nursing home. "Your father also called," she said. The signal of her phone went off, and the doctor suddenly hung up before I could correct her. Three days later, Joy died at home. I called Dr. Croghan to thank her for all she'd done. Then I mentioned the phone call. "It had to be someone else who called you," I said. "He said he was Joy's father clearly," Dr. Croghan insisted. "He talked about her case and understood all the medical details." Who could it be? My dad died three years ago; it couldn't have been him. Maybe it was one of the neighbours or my father's former patients, many of whom were grateful to my father. Who could it be? I wonder. |

| Many American cities have nicknames (别名). Los Angeles,California is the second largest city in population after New York City. Los Angeles has several nicknames. It is called the City of Angels because Los Angeles means "the angels" in Spanish. Los Angeles often has warm, sunny weather. So another nickname is City of Flowers and Sunshine. New York is called the Big Apple. And Los Angeles is sometimes called the Big Orange because of the fruit that grows in that city's warm climate. The American television industries are based in Los Angeles. So it is not surprising that it is called the Entertainment Capital of the World. Many films are made in an area of Los Angeles called Hollywood. Millions of people visit the area. No trip to Los Angeles is complete without seeing the word "Hollywood" spelled out in huge letters. Many movie stars live in Los Angeles. The city is sometimes called Tinseltown. This nickname comes from the shiny, bright and often unreal nature of Hollywood and the movie industry. Another nickname for Los Angeles is La-La Land, using the first letters of Los and Angeles. This means a place that is fun and not serious, and maybe even out of touch with reality. Many people love Los Angeles for its warm, sunny weather, beautiful mountains and beaches, and movie stars. |

| Scientists recently found three kinds of animals living two smiles at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea (地中海). Their small bodies have many cells-each about the size of a large sand-but they are animals. The most exciting thing about these creatures, is that they don't seem to need oxygen to live. What biologists know about life so far is that only one-celled (单细胞) animals can live in spaces that have no oxygen, and those animals who have many cells can visit these places, but cannot live there. These newly- found creatures could change that idea. The animals live in a super-salty lake under the Mediterranean Sea. It may seem strange to think of a lake under the sea, but the water in the lake is so salty that it cannot mix with the seawater above it, and the water in the lake is even saltier than normal seawater. Ordinary seawater has oxygen in it-which allows animals like fish to live-but the water in the lake doesn't have oxygen. Finding animals down there is surprising. The scientists at first thought they were the bodies of dead animals floating (漂浮) into the lake from somewhere else. But later, they found "these dead bodies" appeared to be alive. Some of these animals had eggs, which suggests they were reproducing (繁殖); and their old skins suggest that they had lived there long enough to grow. But scientists still don't know how the animals live without oxygen. More studies are needed, and maybe biologists will need to rethink (重新考虑) what they know about animals. |
| 1. At the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, the scientists found _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. many one-celled animals B. three kinds of living animals C. some dead animals bodies D. animals that look like fish |
| 2. What is special about the super-salty lake? |
|
[ ] |
| A. The lake water doesn't mix up with the seawater above. B. Animals with many cells began to live in the lake. C. The water in the lake has much more oxygen. D. The water in the lake has different colours. |
| 3. What can we infer from the text? |
|
[ ] |
| A. The lake under the Mediterranean attracts many visitors. B. The animals in the super-salty lake catch scientists' attention. C. One-celled animals may lay eggs to reproduce. D. More animals can be found in the super-salty lake. |

| While in most present schools it is controversial (有争议的) whether students should wear uniforms. Most of elementary schools have taken uniform policy. Uniforms serve students benefits in several ways. First of all, uniforms act as social equalizers (均衡器). Children often feel less social stress when everyone in the school is dressed the same way. Students who can not be fashionable due to poverty are made to feel more comfortable among their classmates. Moreover, wearing uniforms influences students' team spirit. Students are made to feel as if they are a part of a team by wearing uniforms. In addition, school uniforms would help students in other ways. Students would not be late for school as often because of the indecision (拿不定主意) about what to wear in the morning. However, when the topic comes to high school situation, further details should be carefully examined. The uniform is not the right answer to different problems that the high school education is facing. Having grown up already, most students no longer feel that uniforms help them become a part of the school. Furthermore, uniforms may not save parents as much money as many people think. Many times students don't wear their school uniforms once they are out of school. Sneakers, jackets, boots and casual clothing will still be needed. What may first appear to be economical may not be accurate (正确的) in reality. It seems that the answer to the school uniform debate is not a simple "yes" or"no". There is no clear consensus (共识) as to the benefits of school uniforms. | |||||||||
