| LOS ANGELES-Once in a blue moon there is one on New Year's Eve.Revelers (狂欢者) ringing in 2010 will be treated to a socalled blue moon.According to popular definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month.But don't expect it to be blue-the name has nothing to do with the color of our closest space neighbor. A full moon occurred on Dec.2,2009.It will appear again on Thursday in time for the New Year's countdown. "If you're in Times Square, you'll see the full moon right above you.It's going to be that brilliant, " said Jack Horkheimer, director of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium and host of a weekly astronomy TV show. The New Year's Eve blue moon will be visible in the United States, Canada, Europe, South America and Africa.For partygoers in Australia and Asia, the full moon does not show up until New Year's Day, making January a blue moon month for them. However, the eastern hemisphere can celebrate with a partial lunar eclipse (月偏蚀) on New Year's Eve when part of the moon enters the Earth's shadow.The eclipse will not be visible in the Americas. A full moon occurs every 29.5 days, and most years have 12 ones.On average, an extra full moon in a month-a blue moon-occurs every 2.5 years.The last time there was a blue moon was in May 2007. New Year's Eve blue moons are rarer, occurring every 19 years.The last time was in 1990. Blue moons have no astronomical significance, said Greg Laughlin, an astronomer at the University of California, Santa Cruz."' Blue moon' is just a name in the same sense as 'a hunter's moon' or 'a harvest moon', " Laughlin said in an email. The popular definition of blue moon came about after a writer for, Sky & Telescope magazine in 1946 misinterpreted (误解) the Maine Farmer's Almanac (历书) and labeled a blue moon as the second full moon in a month.In fact, the almanac defined a blue moon as the third full moon in a season with four full moons, not the usual three.Though Sky & Telescope corrected the mistake decades later, the definition caught_on. 1. According to the popular definition, "a blue moon" means________. A. the second full moon in a month B. a moon which looks blue C. a partial lunar eclipse D. the second full moon in a year 2. In Japan, people can see a blue moon in________. A. December,2009 B. January,2010 C. May,2010 D. July,2011 3. The next New Year's Eve blue moon is most likely to appear in________. A. 2013 B. 2018 C. 2026 D. 2028 4. The underlined phrase "caught on" means________. A. understood B. got rare C. became popular D. was out of date 5. Which of the following is the best title? A. Blue moons have no astronomical value B. Rare New Year's Eve "blue moon" to ring in 2010 C. Rare New Year's Day "blue moon" to celebrate New Year D. A blue moon comes again |

| A mother from Colorado who doctors said had died while giving birth to her son, has said it is a Christmas miracle that both she and the boy are alive. Tracey Hermanstorfer's heart stopped beating and her son Coltyn appeared lifeless after the Caesarean (剖腹产术) section on Christmas Eve.However a few minutes after he was born, both began breathing again.Dr Stephanie Martin told Good Morning America she could not explain how the pair survived.Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike told the American television show that their baby was now healthy and that they were doing "good" following the drama at Colorado Springs Memorial Hospital. The couple, who already had two children, had to go into the hospital seven weeks earlier than planned.Her husband,37, said his wife was tired after receiving an epidural (硬膜外麻醉) during the labour (分娩) but after closing her eyes, she "wasn't waking up". She stopped breathing and she is believed to have suffered a heart attack before her heart stopped beating entirely. Dr Martin said she was called in and that the outlook was grim since in most situations like this, " despite the best efforts of the team", the mother was often unable to be revived.In that case doctors then tried to focus on delivering the baby but when he was born he was "completely lifeless". Mr Hermanstorfer told the Associated Press news agency, "I had everything in the world taken from me, and in an hour and a half I had everything given to me." Dr Martin said she did not have a "great explanation" for why Mrs Hermanstorfer's heartbeat returned."Somewhere between four and five minutes she had been without heart rate and had stopped breathing a minute or two prior to her heart stopping, " she said.The doctors were then able to bring the baby back to life, and the mother was alive after that. Despite tests, she said doctors were still not sure about what had happened.However Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike have said they believed it was down to a miracle.She said:"I got a second chance in life." 1. The story happened on________. A. December,24 B. December,25 C. December,31 D. January,1 2. What might have happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer just before her heart stopped beating? A. She became unconscious. B. She took a nap. C. She had a bad headache. D. She suffered a heart attack. 3. Which of the following is the correct order of what happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer? a. suffering a heart attackb. stopping heart beating entirely c. stopping breathingd. coming back to life e. receiving an epiduralf. producing a baby A. acfdbe B. fcadbe C. eacbfd D. eabcfd 4.

| People of older generations often complain about the selfishness and lack of respect they find among the younger generations.It is undeniable that some young people do need to be educated on mutual respect and concern for others, especially senior members of society.But we older people should have some understanding about the young, too. Today's society is rather different from what it was when we were young.The social, financial and psychological pressure today's young people have to face is much higher than what we did back in the 1950s through the 1990s. They are in the early stage of their career.They have to find proper jobs to support themselves and work diligently to rise.They have to live in smaller houses, because they are unable to afford the soaring housing prices.Considering these facts, we may find it understandable why young people sometimes appear aloof and disrespectful. I don't mean that we should put up with it without reminding them of the need to mend_their_ways. What I mean is that we should be more patient, understanding and tolerant toward them. For instance, when we get up on a bus or a subway train, we should not complain about not being offered a seat.A young person does not offer a senior citizen his/her seat probably because he/she has to travel a long way to work or because the carriage is too crowded for one to move at all. In fact, young people do offer their seats to the seniors.I seldom take a bus or a subway train, but more than a quarter of the times I have done so, I was offered a seat.That is fair enough, given that I do not look so senile. But on occasions, I have seen old people not showing any sign of gratitude when offered a seat. China has become an aging society since the end of the last century.According to a recent survey, people older than 60 accounted for 11.4 percent of the nation's population.And the percentage is expected to rise, given the onechild family planning policy our country has practiced for more than three decades. In other words, the younger generations will have to shoulder a heavier burden in looking after the parents and grandparents.Theoretically, there will come a day when one couple may have to support four parents and eight grandparents.What a burden it would be! All this demands that we show more concern and understanding to our younger generations. 1. What can be the best title for the text? A. Should the young show respect for the old? B. Young people deserve more understanding C. Who should be blamed, the young or the old? D. A debate between the young and the old 2. The author's attitude towards young people not giving up seats to the old is________. A. unreasonable B. unacceptable C. understandable D. unusual 3. According to the passage, the underlined phrase "mend their ways" is closest in meaning to "______". A. give way to the old B. stop behaving badly C. respect the old D. take on more responsibilities 4. Which of the following will the author agree with? A. It is the old rather than the young who are to blame for their misunderstanding. B. It is time that the society lightened the burden on the shoulder of the young. C. It is time to change China's onechild family planning policy. D. The old and the young need mutual understanding. 5. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By reasoning. B. By comparing. C. By listing examples. D. By following the natural time order. |
