| A handsome middleaged man walked quietly into the cafe and sat down. Before he ordered, he couldn't help but noticed a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were making fun of something about him and it wasn't until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon (丝带) on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about. The man pretended not to notice it, but the whisper and laughter began to get to him. He looked one of the rude young men straight into the eye, placed his hand beneath the ribbon and asked, "This?" With that the young men all began to laugh out loud. The man he spoke to said, "Hey, sorry, man, but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket!" The middleaged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table, and politely seated him. As uncomfortable as he was, the young guy had to, not really sure why. In a soft voice, the middleaged man said, "I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother's honor. " "Oh, sorry. She died of breast cancer?" "No, she didn't. She's alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as a baby, and were a soft resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I'm very grateful for my mother's breasts, and her health. " "Umm, "the young replied, "yeah. " "And I wear this ribbon to honor my wife," the man continued. "And she's okay, too?" the young guy asked. "Oh, yes. She's fine. Her breasts have been a great source of loving pleasure for both of us, and with them she nurtured and nourished our daughter 23 years ago. I'm grateful for my wife's breasts, and her health." "Uh, huh. And I guess you wear it to honor your daughter, also?" "No. It's too late to honor my daughter by wearing it now. . . " Shaken and ashamed, the young guy said, "Oh, I'm so sorry, mister." "So, in my daughter's memory, too, I proudly wear this little ribbon, which allows me the opportunity to enlighten others. And here. . .

| New York-Wednesday, October fifteenth, is the first Global Hand Washing Day. Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap. Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at socalled critical moments. These include after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food. Global Hand Washing Day is the idea of the PublicPrivate Partnership for Hand Washing with Soap. The goal, they say, is to create a culture of hand washing with soap. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing diseasecausing germs (病菌). They say the correct way to wash hands is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Then, rinse well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth. The Partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell, which increases the likelihood that people will wash again. It also says washing with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea (痢疾), which is the second leading cause of child deaths, killing more than one and a half million children a year, by almost half. |

| A. kills half of the kids in developing countries B. causes the greatest number of child deaths C. can be prevented by washing hands with soap D. makes soap stand out in hand washing |
| Many people wonder why the United States has been a hot spot for Chinese students for years, despite its extremely strict visa policy. On the other hand, China's rise as an economic powerhouse is resulting in a rapid expansion of its higher education system, making it the fastergrowing destination for American foreign exchange students. Recently, according to a study by the Institute of International Education, a research organization based in New York, the number of American students seeking higher education in China has never been greater, increasing by 90 percent from 2002 to 2004. Alan Goodman, president of the institute, believes that the_phenomenon lies in the pace of change in China, which is spending billions of dollars to expend and transform its higher educational facilities into worldclass institutions. "China is a job market, " said Professor Chou, professor of East Asian Studies at Princeton University. "Twenty years ago, only those interested in Chinese literature would study the Chinese language. Now all professors have opened up. " China now ranks 9th as a host destination for American students, advancing from the No. 12 spot it held a year earlier. The study revealed that Britain continues to be the leading destination, attracting 16. 8 percent of all American students who study abroad. On the other hand, in the 2004～2005 academic year, China sent more than 62,000 students to the United States, nearly 60 percent more than a decade earlier. According to the study, the Chinese now make up 11 percent of foreign students in the United States, the secondlargest group behind students from India. |

| 3. Ten years ago, China sent about________students to the United States. |
| A. 62,000 B. 55,000 C. 38,750 D. 6,820 |

| A. American students are looking for destinations. B. American students are interested in Chinese culture. C. Britain continues to be the leading destination. D. China grows as a study hot spot for US students. |
| In the age of reality television, success isn't the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung,21, a native of Hong Kong. Hung recently has made an agreement with USbased entertainment firms Koch Records and Fuse Music Network. They'll publish a record, titled The True Idol on April 6. The idol is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version of Ricky Martin's She Bangs on the television show American Idol 3, on January 27. The Fox TV singing contest searches for pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in midact. Hung's response?" I already did my best, so I have no regrets at all." That's good, because any common person would have found plenty to regret:the offkey singing, the blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high, the terrible dancing and the hips jerking (摇摆) to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad. However, it was this very bad act that sold well. Mare Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way:" Every one of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely offkey and completely unworried. That's what William did and immediately won the hearts of America." Whatever it is, for the moment it's big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and technomusic and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station. So, what does Hung think of this? "There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn't have much respect for me and some were kind of mean." Now he says he's not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour (魅力) or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn't been easy. |
| 1. What is the main idea of this passage? |
| A. Something an idol behaves quite foolishly. B. Hung's performance attracted the public eye. C. How an unsuccessful person became famous. D. Success sometimes does not require hard work. |
| 2. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 7 refer to? |
| A. William Hung. B. Hung's bad act. C. Hung's website. D. The public's opinion. |
| 3. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened to Hung? a. The entertainment firms made an agreement with Hung. b. The judges cut Hung off in midact in the singing contest. c. Hung became popular among Americans. d. Hung gave a terrible performance though he tried his best. e. Three websites put Hung's funny performance on the Internet. |
| A. d, b, e, c, a B. a, c, d, b, e C. a, d, b, c, e D. d, b, a, e, c |
| 4. Why was Hung able to win the hearts of America? |
| A. His success was based on his own hard work. B. He attracted people's attention in the contest. C. He was goodlooking though he didn't sing well. D. His character was completely different from other idols' |
