| JK Rowling, the Harry Potter authof, has signed a deal with Little, Brown and Company, to publish her first ever novel for adults, which is set to become one of the most anticipated (期望的) book in years. The deal means that Rowling's long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based publisher that launched (发行) the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at 1east in terms of new works by the author. Rowling is keeping her fans guessing about the characters and plot of her new book. She only said that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which was sold over 30 million copies in the UK alone. She thought that with the move from children's to adult fiction, a switch to a new publisher seemed like a natural and reasonable step. She said," Although I've enjoyed writing it every bit as much, this book will be very different from the Harry Potter series. The freedom to explore a new field is a gift that Harry's success has brought me." Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set in the city. suggested Rowling's book will be a crime novel. "Wouldn't it be funny if JK Rowling's first novel for adults turned out to be a crime story set in Edinburgh?" he said. Industry insiders guessed that the deal is worth more than ￡5 million and the new book is expected to come out later this year. A spokesman said," JK Rowling's audience is vast and her position is uniqLle. Hatry Potter books were a global success and her fans are very loyal. Children that were eight, nine, or ten when the books first came out in the 1990s are now in their 20s. Plenty of adults, loved the books regardless of whether they had children, so the potential market for her is huge." |

| A. tell us that some famous novelists offer to give Rowling some advice B. show that many readers are curious about Rowling's new book C. tell us that many readers prefer to read detective or crime novels D. prove that a crime story set in Edinburgh is sure to be successful |
| 4. We can leam from the text that . |

| The koala. one of Australia's most treasured creatures, is introuble. Affected by habitat (栖居地) loss and climate change, like many other uniquely Australian animals, koalas are being squeezed into smaller regions. But at present, it is a deadly disease, a somewhat silent killer that causes a further decline in the koala population, that is worrying many scientists about the fate of the koala. The killer is Chlamydia, which has caused symptoms in up to 50 percent of the wild koalas, with probably even more infected (感染) but not showing symptoms. It has been particularly severe in Queensland, where nearly all koalas are infected. The disease causes many symptoms including eye infections, which can lead to blindness, making it difficult for them to find their primary food. Treating Chlamydia in wild koalas is a challenge. There is no treatment available for it. Only a small percentage of the animals can be treated successfully and returned to the wild. Besides, there is no national plan in Australia to save the koala;it is up to each region to make management plans for its koala population. The good news is that researchers are working to test a vaccine (疫苗) that would help prevent further spread. If all goes well, plans can be carried out to distribute the vaccil1e more widely. But it's impossible to vaccinate all wild koalas. Another possibility would be to make vaccine distribution a routi11e part of treatment for the thousands of koalas brought into care centers every year after they are injured by cars or dogs. While it is a combination of problems that are affecting the wild koala population, many expects believe this vaccine would be an important step in helping koalas survive longer. It may buy enough time to give researchers a chance to solve some of the other problems facing Australia's koalas.  |
| 1. Which isn't considered the main cause of koa1a's population decline? |
| A. A deadly disease. B. Injuries from cars and dogs. C. Climate change. D. Habitat loss. |
| 2. The third paragraph mainly tells us . |
| A. the serious result Chlamydia has caused to the koala B. Chlamydia affected the koala only in particular regions C. the most serious symptom of Chlamydia is eye infections D. Chla1nydia can seriously affect koala's primary food |
| 3. The underlined word "it" in the fourth paragraph probably refers to . |
| A. the koala B. Chlamydia C. national plan D. eye infection |
| 4. We can learn from the text that the vaccine . |
| A. would cure the killer Chlamydia quite effectively B. would only be distributed in koala care centers C. has already been put into practical use in Australia D. cannot be distributed to all the infected koalas |
| 5. It can be inferred from the text that . |
| A. a national plan for saving koalas will be made soon in Australia B. koala population is declining only in a few regions C. researchers need enough time to so1ve the koala problems D. experts have lost the best chance to save the infected koalas |
| The Internationa1 Space Station allows astronauts to live in space for extended amounts of time, enabling them to explore the outside universe al1d conduct many experiments. However, nothing like that exists for our oceans, and thanks to the high water pressure, ocean researchers are able to explore what lies undersea for very short periods of time. They are therefore never able to fully explore the deep inside areas of our oceans. However, if French architect Jacques Rougerie has his way, that will change soon. Jacques has designed a ship that will allow researchers to spend a long period of time observing the sea life and conducting experiments. The huge l67ft. ship, named' SeaOrbiter', consists of two areas-one above the water where the scientists and crew will live, and a lower pressurized deck (甲板), where scientists will be able to spend as much time as they wish. Since it is powered by sea currents and wind, he expects it to drift (漂流) along the oceans slowly, taking about two years to circumvent the globe. Jacques will make their life as comfortable as possible in the ship. Besides being equipped with the latest sailing tools and communication equipment, the ship will also have a gym, a television and a DVD player! And these guys will not be eating freeze-dried food like astronauts. Instead, Jacques, an accomplished chef, plans on cooking them delicious meals every day. The biggest problem to this giant ship is the cost, which is expected to be over $500 million-per ship! However, Jacques, who strongly believes that the secrets of our oceans may be the key to solving global warming and a vital supply for food and medicine in the future, is confident he will be able to convince governments all over the world to help out, and expects to start construction on not one, but four or five of these amazing ships soon!  |
| 1. Why can't ocean researchers explore the deep oceans for a long time? |
| A. Because they can't stand the high water pressure. B. Because it's too cold in deep ocean. C. Because time for experiments is too limited. D. Because it's dangerous to observe the sea life. |
| 2. The underlined word "circumvent" probably means . |
| A. fly away B. get around C. travel through D. move into |
| 3. From the fourth paragraph we can learn that . |
| A. Jacques intends to design the ship mainly for sightseeing and traveling B. living a comfortable life helps to do the ocean research quickly C. it's much more expensive to eat freeze-dried food D. researchers on Jacques'ship will live more comfortably than astronauts |
| 4. In Jacques' opinion, which of the following is not the purpose of the undersea research? |
| A. To find supply for food in the future. B. To find supply for medicine in the future. C. To draw governments' attention to the construction of the ship. D. To solve the global warming. |
| 5. Which of the fol1owing would be the best title for the text? |
| A. Sea Orbite-the ship of the future B. A new way to explore the deep oceans C. A great architect-Jacques Rougerie D. Travel around the globe in Sea Orbiter |

| In the past decade, openness has become mainstream, and the vast majority of domestic adoptions (家庭领养) are open ones. Even so, potential adoptive parents and birthparents are often fearful when they first hear of the concept. Making Room in Our Hearls: Keeping Family Ties Through Open Addption answers the most common questions about the influence of open adoption, and how it affects the lives of everyone related. Duxbury, a family expert who specializes in adoption advice, is also an adoptive parent. Her book opens with her own family's story. Duxbury surveyed 150 families, but her book is not a collection of data. Instead, it allows these families to share their thoughts and wisdom, their joy and pain; the stories communicate the great happiness families feel at" working together for the sake of the child" and the steady view that the adoptive parents are the parents. They also touch on problems that can arise from opening closed adoptions. The most convincing advocates for open adoption here are the adopted teens themselves. Commenting on the question people always ask: "Are you confused about who is you real mother?", Josh, age 2l now. states, "Kids aren't stupid. I think I would be confused if my birthmother was not in my life. But my birthmother is not another parent. Your parents are your parents. My birthmother is really important to me. She is like a special aunt, but she is not my parent." "Openness gives children the gift of possibilities, for now and for the future," writes adoption expert Patricia Martinez Dorner in her closing thoughts. "It is not a ctre-all, but it creates the possibility for a stronger sense of permanence and identity." This book is important reading for everyone touched by adoption.  |
| 1. The first paragraph is written with the aim to . |
| A. advise people to open their adoptions B. bring in the topic of open adoption C. explain why open adoption has become mainstream D. advertise the book Make Room in Our Heart |
| 2. What kind of view may both Duxbury and Josh agree with? |
| A. The adoptive parents are the parents. B. Only stupid kids may regard their birthmother as parent. C. A collection of data of adoptive families is useless. D. All adoptive families should share their joy and pain. |
| 3. We can learn from the text that kids of"closed adoptions" . |
| A. will not be told the truth of adoption B. hate their birthparents very much C. usually have fewer family problems D. will become stupid with no birthparents |
| 4. The adopted children's attitude towards open adoptio11 is . |
| A. ridiculous B. disapproving C. positive D. uncertain |
