         Jason Crole studies in an American high school. As a native of London, the 16-year-old didn't know much
    about America's colonial (殖民地的) past before this summer.
         But now Crole can talk a lot about the settlers (移民者), slavery (奴隶制) and the events that led up to the
    American Revolution (美国独立战争). He learned about these subjects at a summer program at the College of
    William and Mary, Virginia.
         It is a 70-year-old program that gathers high school students from across the US to study early American
    history.
         "It's been great and a lot of hard work," said Crole. "This is not a subject really  taught in England, so I'm
    learning a lot of new things."
         The program meet from 8 am to 3 pm five days a week. It goes for three weeks. Students go to lectures
    and read essays about the time period they are studying. They study history from the founding of Jamestown
    through the American Revolution and the Civil War (美国内战).
         As well as leaming about history in the classroom, students also take field trips to historical sites. They visit
    Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and other sites around Virginia. They learn what life was like during that
    time.
         "We hope the students can really leam something about our early history," said Carolyn Sparks Whittenburg,
    director of the program. " We offer the program to kids who love history. A total of 111 students were in the
    program this summer, but we hope for more next year."
    1. The summer program helps high school students to study _______.
    A. the settlers
    B. the Civil War
    C. the American Revolution
    D. American history
    2. The summer program lasts for _______.
    A. seven hours
    B. five days
    C. three weeks
    D. one month
    3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A. There were hundreds of students in the program this summer.
    B. Some students are not quite clear about America's colonial past.
    C. Students can take part in the summer program in their high schools.
    D. The subject is taught outside the classroom rather than inside.

         Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Wars and
    traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional (精神上的) hurts. Often they appear
    again in dreams.
         Now American researchers think they are close to developing a drug which will help people forget bad
    memories. The drug is desiSned to he taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might
    reduce or possibly erase (清除) the effect of painful memories.
         In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body producing
    chemicals that fix memories in the hrain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects
    of memories may be reduced, not thal the memories are erased.
         The research has caused a Ueat deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.
         Supporters say it could lead to drugs that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They
    say that there are many people who suffer from terrihle memones.
         "Some memories can ruin (毁坏) people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have
    them in a dream. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry
    at Harvard Medical School. "This could reduce a lot of that suffering."
         But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories
    give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."
         All of us can think of bad experiences in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are.
    I'm not sure we want to erase those memories," said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.
    1. Now American researchers are trying to develop a drug to _______.
    A. change people's bad memories into good ones
    B. make people forget what happened in the past
    C. help soldiers get away from troubling memones
    D. treat people who suffer from terrible memones
    2. The drug that have been tested on people can _______.
    A. cause the brain to lose memories
    B. reduce the effect of bad memories
    C. help people improve their memories
    D. totally erase the painful memories
    3. Rebecca Dresser thinks that _______.
    A. some memories can ruin people's lives
    B. the drug can prevent people from sufferings
    C. bad memories make us different from others
    D. taking the drug will do harm to people's health

         How many people have I met who have told me about the book they have been planning to write but
    have never yet found the time? Far too many.
         This is life, all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal (排演) and, unhappily. we do miss so many of its
    best moments.
         We take johs to stay alive and provide homes for our families always making ourselves believe that this
    style of life is merely a temporary (暂时的) state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then,
    at 60 or 65, we are suddenly presented with a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize
    that all those years waiting for real life to come along were in fact real life.
         In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English: "Have a nice day." They speak slowly and
    seriously in their shops, hotels and sandwich bars. I think it is a wonderful phrase, reminding us, in effect, to
    enjoy the moment.
         How often do we say to ourselves, "I'll take up horse-riding (or golf, or sailing) when I get a higher
    position," only to do none of those things when I do get the higher position.
         When I first became a reporter I knew a man who gave up a very well paid respectahle job at The Daily
    Telegraph to go and work for a small weekly newspaper. At the time I was astonished by what appeared to
    me to be his completely abnormal (反常的) mental state. How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in
    central London for a small local area? I wanted to know.
         Now I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under
    continual pressure. He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern
    Region trains.
    1. The underlined phrase "turn his back on" most prohably means "________".
    A. give up
    B. keep on
    C. try out
    D. look for
    2. The man preferred working for a small newspaper partly because ________.
    A. something had gone wrong with his mind
    B. he wanted to have more time to enjoy life
    C. he would have more chances to make money
    D. he liked travelling on Southern Region trains
    3. What is probably the best title for the passage?
    A. Find a Good Job
    B. Wait for Real Life
    C. Value This Very Day
    D. Get a Higher Position

         Who was Leonardo da Vinci? You may answer without thinking: "He is the painter of Mona Lisa."
    What else do you know about him? Da Vinci was more than just a great artist in history. He's also famous
    as a scientist and an inventor.
         Recently, the Grand Rapids Public Museum in the US had an exhibition to introduce this great talent.
    In one of the shows, named "Leonardo da Vinci's Machines in Motion", visitors could see and touch 30
    full-size machines built according to his sketches-including a crane (起重机) and a robot!
         Leonardo da Vinci was bom to a rich family in Florence, Italy, in 1452. From childhood, Leonardo was
    given a good education and he showed talent at painting. By the age of 26, Da Vinci had already become a
    famous painter.
         However, he showed that he had multiple talents in 1482 when he began to work for the Duke of Milan
    as a chief engineer. In the duke's military factories, Da Vinci developed an interest in war weapons.
         He designed many important machines, including helicopters and parachutes. He also drew and wrote
    about an armored car, which could carry eight men inside and allow them to fire weapons through holes
    in its walls. Da Vinci's idea led to the mod- ern tank. Though Da Vinci never built many of the inventions
    he designed, some of the things he imagined in the late 1400s are in use today.
         As a scientist, Da Vinci was fascinated with the human body. He spent a whole year cutting up dead
    bodies in hospitals to learn about human anatomy (解剖). He made more than 200 drawings of bodies.
         Amazingly, Da Vinci wrote backward, so the easiest way to read his notes was to hold them up to a
    mirror!

    2. When was Leonardo da Vinci born?
