| A picture, a calendar or even a balloon may be the best way for millions of people living in China's vast country areas to learn about AIDS, one of the biggest threats to public health in the world today. China has decided to use user-friendly methods including exhibitions, VCDs and TV programmes to spread knowledge of the disease across the nation to try to keep it in check. Educating people nationwide about AIDS is the top priority (优先权) to prevent the disease from getting out of hand. The farmers will be given knowledge in the easiest way that they can understand. A recent survey from the commission (调查团) of more than 7,000 people in China showed that nearly 20 percent of them had never heard of AIDS before. Just over 71 percent said they knew AIDS was highly infectious (传染), but most of them had no clear idea of how the disease could be spread. Just over 62 percent said they knew they could do things in advance to prevent them catching AIDS but they didn't know what these measures were. The month-long survey, carried out last December, talked to people in seven countries and cities across China including both developed coastal areas and less-developed inland areas. The interviewees changed from 15 to 49 years old, and country residents were about 63% of the total surveyed. Chinese residents, especially those in the country, have very little knowledge about what AIDS is all about, not to mention prevention and treatment. By the end of last year, there were 22,517 known HIV\AIDS cases in China. However, more than 6,000,000 people in China have been infected. Since 1985, China has discovered 880 patients with AIDS-466 of them have died. Sharing needles, prostitution (卖淫) and contaminated blood transfusions are major ways for HIV to spread. A lack of education has been the biggest difficulty against nationwide efforts to prevent AIDS, especially in the countryside. |
| 1. The author's purpose in writing the passage is to _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. show his concern about the health of people B. make people know about AIDS C. call on people to fight against AIDS D. tell us people are short of the knowledge of AIDS |
| 2. The greatest difficulty against the nationwide effort to prevent AIDS lies in _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. misunderstanding of people B. the shortage of money C. its infection D. lack of education |
| 3. It is judged that there are _____ people hit by AIDS in China at present. |
|
[ ] |
| A. 22,000 B. over 6,000,000 C. 880 D. over 7,000 |

| Dear Sir, I have to travel every day from SoUk Road to the Airport. Two buses travel along this route: the number 49 and the number 16. However, by the time the number 16 bus reaches SoUk Road, it is always full, so it is of no use for me. This leaves the number 49 which sometimes has empty seats on it. The timetable states that there are buses from SoUk Road to the Airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day? The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop? The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was first to get off the bus when it reached the Airport. I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them. Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says "Maximum speed: 50 m.p.h." The distance from SoUk Road to the Airport is 10 miles. Saturday morning a 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 m.p.h. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 m.p.h. It is obvious that our bus companies have no respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this? |
| 1. The writer prefers to take Bus No.49 because it _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. stops at every stop B. has more seats on it C. travels faster D. is not always full |
| 2. According to the timetable, a 49 bus should travel through its route _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. every ten minutes B. in less than ten minutes C. in more than twelve minutes D. in half an hour |
| 3. The writer is not satisfied with the bus company because _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. buses are too crowded B. bus drivers often go straight past without stopping C. too few buses are traveling along this route D. bus services are poor |

| I'm sure I'm not the only person (my age 15) who hates going to the dentist. Channel 4's late-night documentary (纪录片) Open wide last Tuesday was excellent for people like me. However, none of my school friends watched it because they didn't know it was on. Why can't television companies let us know about such important programmes in advance? This pragrammes was important because it showed how methods for helping people with toothache have developed over the centuries. If you think visiting the dentist today is an uncomfortable experience, just be grateful you didn't live 200 years ago! Then, the programmes told us, the only cure for toothache was removing the tooth. There weren't any dentists, so the person who cut your hair also pulled out your bad teeth, and there was nothing to stop you feeling the pain. The programme has also completely changed my attitude to looking after my teeth. My parents were always saying to me things like, 'Don't eat too many sweets.' And, 'Brush your teeth after meals.' But I never paid much attention. Now I've seen what damage sugar can do, especially if I don't use a toothbrush regularly. I'm going to change my habits. Many people would benefit from a repeat of this programme. Sophie Ashley, Oxford |

| 3. What did Open wide say about toothache? |
|
[ ] |
| A. In the past, nobody could make it stop. B. Dentists used to help people who had it. C. Hairdressers have it more than other people. D. Ways of curing it have changed. |
| 4. What does Sophie think about her parents now? |
|
[ ] |

Also on Christmas Eve, Santa comes from the North Pole in a sleigh to deliver gifts; in Hawaii, it is said he arrives by boat; in Australia, the jolly man arrives on water skis; and In Ghana, he comes out of the jungle. C. Eid Al Adha, the Festival of the Sacrifice Eid Al Adha is celebrated by Muslims on the 10th day of the month of the lunar calendar (In 2008, it fell on December 8) to commemorate the willingness of the prophet Ibrahim (or Abraham) to sacrifice his son for God. Today, Muslims sacrifice an animal-usually a goat or a sheep-as a reminder of Ibrahim's obedience to God. The meat is shared with family, friends Muslims or non-Muslims, as well as the poor members of the community. D. Hanukkah Jewish people celebrate Hanukkah, a holiday honoring the Maccabees victory over King Antiochus, who forbade Jews to practice their religion. For eight nights, Hanukkah is celebrated with prayer, the lighting of the menorah, and food. A menorah has nine candles, a candle for every night, plus a helper candle. Children play games, sing songs, and exchange gifts. Potato pancakes, known as latkes (土豆饼) in Yiddish, are traditionally associated with Hanukkah and are served with applesauce and sour cream. E. Kwanzaa On December 26, Kwanzaa is celebrated. It is a holiday to commemorate African heritage. Kwanzaa lasts a week during which participants gather with family and friends to exchange gifts and to light a series of black, red, and green candles, which symbolize the seven basic values of African American family life that are unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. F. Three Kings Day At the end of the Twelve Days of Christmas comes a day called the Epiphany, or Three Kings Day. This holiday is celebrated as the day the three wise men first saw baby Jesus and brought him gifts. On this day in Spain, many children get their Christmas presents. In Puerto Rico, before children go to sleep on January 5, they leave a box with hay under their beds so the kings will leave good presents. In France, a delicious King cake is baked. Bakers will hide a coin, jewel or little toy inside it. |
