         Every year when the Italian artist Michelangelo's (1475-1564, 意大利文艺复兴时期著名雕刻家、画家、
    建筑师) birthday comes around, computer users all over the world are filled with fear (害怕) and use their
    computers with care. Some may even choose not to turn on their computers on March 3. All this fear and care
    are just because a deadly computer virus is ready to cause damages (破坏) on that day.
         What's a computer virus then? Why do people get so afraid of it?
         A computer virus is, in fact, a little program that is put into other programs and that does something bad.
    It is called a virus because, like any real-life viruses such as AIDs virus, it reproduces itself. And when these
    programs are run, the virus is brought to life. It hides itself in your computer system waiting for the right
    moment to make damages. And at the same time it keeps producing itself by copying itself onto other programs.
         The Michelangelo virus waits until the artist's birthday comes around, and then it will wake up to do very
    bad things like destroying you files (毁坏文档). So next time when you turn on your computer, look out for
    computer viruses!

    1. The Italian artist Michelangelo _____.
    [     ]
    A. was born six centuries ago
    B. was born on March 3, 1475
    C. died six centuries ago
    D. died on March 3, 1564
    2. Why are computer users full of fear on March 3? Because _____.
    [     ]
    A. it is the birthday of a famous Italian artist
    B. a kind of computer virus will come on that day
    C. a deadly computer virus called "the Michelangelo virus" will wake up and then damages that day
    D. something will easily go wrong with computers
    3. In fact, a computer virus is _____.
    [     ]
    A. a program which can be put into computers with some damages to them
    B. a kind of real-life virus
    C. a kind of virus like AIDS virus
    D. also a kind of program which is placed into other programs and which makes damages
    4. In fact, a computer virus is ready to cause damages _____.
    [     ]
    A. any day
    B. only on March 3
    C. on Fridays
    D. only on some famous artists' birthdays

         "Just five more minutes." "I'm tired!" "I can't get up." If you have ever had trouble getting up in the
    morning, you are not alone. Many kids in the United States do not get enough sleep.
         Your body needs sleep-and lots of it! "Evidence (证据) shows that elementary-age children need at
    least nine hours of sleep per night," said sleep expert Dr. Carl Hunt.
         Kids who do not sleep enough cannot do their best, experts say. A tired kid may be moody and act
    badly. Being tired can also cause kids to forget things, have trouble learning, and have trouble playing
    sports.
         Not sleeping enough can also affect kids' safety. Experts say children who are tired are more likely
    to suffer injuries.
         Lots of kids lose sleep because they are busy. Many take part in after-school activities. Then they
    go home, eat dinner, and do homework. Afterward, many kids watch TV, play video games, and surf
    the Internet. That leaves less time for sleep.
         Sometimes you may not be able to go to bed early. But, if you get a choice whether to stay up late,
    think twice. A good night's sleep can help you feel your best!
    1. What is the best title for this story?
    [     ]
    A. Kids Need More Sleep
    B. Turn off the TV
    C. Children Dream
    D. Kids Have Busy Lives
    2. According to the story, what is the main reason many kids do not get enough sleep?
    [     ]
    A. They are afraid of the dark.
    B. They are busy all day.
    C. They get up early to do their homework.
    D. They stay up late reading.
    3. How could a good night's sleep help you feel your best?
    [     ]
    A. You may be less moody.
    B. You may have an easier time learning.
    C. You may be less likely to get injured.
    D. All of the above.

         You Mi, a lovely and confident 17-year-old student, is the first Chinese high school student to appear on
    the cover of the popular young adults' fashion magazine Seventeen.
         "You is IN," said Wang Lihua, Editor-in-Chief of Seventeen. "She is active and mature (成熟的) because
    of her knowledge on everything from academic studies, to books on art, to movies. We found she's the very
    style we're looking for to represent young people's attitudes."   
         You also impressed Wang with her fluent English when they first met last year. As the hostess of an
    English broadcasting programme at the High School Affiliated to Renmin University, You is always praised
    for speaking English almost like a native speaker. "I've built up my English by watching thousands of English
    DVDs since I was 10," she explained.    
         But for You, watching isn't enough. Last year, while in Senior 1, she met a talented boy who showed self-
    made DV movies at the English Corner in her school.  
         "I thought it was so cool and I knew that I should start making my own films," she said. So she wrote a
    campus (校园) story, persuaded schoolmates to star in it and then began shooting a 30-minute DV movie, all
    in English. "I played one of the leading roles, actually I was everything in my film. I worked on it every single
    day during the SARS holidays," she recalled. The movie finally became a big hit on campus, earning You a
    strong reputation (名气) as a DV movie director.    
         But this is not the only field she wants to master. Despite being a science student, You likes art, literature
    and fashion design very much.    
         "There are people who can be artists, there are people who edit books, and there are people who become
    film producers. But I just hope to mix all the things up!" she said. "There is an old saying I believe: Chance
    favours only the prepared mind."

         Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures. The increasingly popular "design
    museums" that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the
    design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even
    place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.
         People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial
    technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales-it is the honoring of excellently invented products.
    The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the
    first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.
         One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits.
    Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled (困惑).
    This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look
    as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand,
    would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.
         In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried
    to satisfy the public's growing interest in the field with new ideas. London's Design Museum, for example,
    shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian
    fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors
    may also sense the humorous (幽默的) part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting
    and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.
    1. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they _____.
    [     ]
    A. show more technologically advanced products
    B. help increase the sales of products
    C. show why the products have sold well
    D. attract more people than store windows do
    2. The author believes that most design museum visitors _____.
    [     ]
    A. do not admire mass-produced products
    B. are puzzled with technological exhibits
    C. dislike exhibits in art museums
    D. know the exhibits very well
    3. The choices open to design museums _____.
    [     ]
    A. are not as strict as those to art museums
    B. are not aimed to interest the public
    C. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors
    D. often contain precious exhibits
    4. The best title for this passage is _____.
    [     ]
    A. The forms of design museums
    B. The exhibits of design museums
    C. The nature of design museums
    D. The choices open to design museums
