A blood test showed Gao had 243.04 milligrams of alcohol for 100 milliliters of blood, well over the 80 mil¬ligram limit within a 100 milliliters of blood. On Tuesday afternoon the man known to million for his harsh (严厉的) comments to participants on China's Got Talent had to face the judge himself at Beijing Dongcheng District People's Court under China's newly amended(修改的) Road Traffic Safety Law. “I've nothing to defend myself only regret,” he told the courtroom filled with people. “I always thought alcohol could bring me freedom, but it never occurred to me that drunk driving will rid others of their free¬dom. I’ll be responsible for all the loss it has caused. This incident showed my irresponsibility for life. I'm willing to be a volunteer for my life promoting the non-drunk driving.” A day earlier at an administrative(行政的) punishment hearing, wearing an orange detention suit, he was banned from driving for five years and fined 1, 000 yuan for having an expired(过期的) license. On May 10 he was pictured at Beijing’s traffic police headquarters where he turned down requests for interviews, but wrote on a piece of paper, “sorry, never drive when drunk.” Now he has become the first celebrity(名人) to be punished under the tough new rules that came into effect on May 1. Guo Shudong, the first driver sentenced since the new law was introduced, was jailed for four months for being twice over the legal limit on May 9. Gao, famous for campus song “My Deskmate” in the 1990s, was replaced by music producer and composer Antonio Chen during the recording of China's Got Talent on May 10. 56.According to the passage，anyone whose blood test indicates milligrams of alcohol for 100 milliliters of blood is not considered to have broken the newly amended Road Traffic Safety Law.

Amended Road Traffic Safety Law Came into Effect B The Chinese word" Shanzhai" means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes(假货) after" Shanzhai cell phones " produced by small workshops in southern China, became popular in the mainland market over the past few years. Besides" Shanzhai" electronic products, there are "Shanzhai" movies, "Shanzhai" stars and even a "Shanzhai" Spring Festival Gala, a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year's Eve. "Shanzhai" has become a culture of its own, symbolizing anything that imitates something famous. The phenomenon has caused a public debate over whether it is healthy or sick being a copycat. In southwestern China's Chongqing Municipality, a "Shanzhai"-version"Bird’s Nest" woven by farmers with bamboo attracts wide attention and the "Shanzhai"-version "Water Cube" is popular with tourists too. Both are copies of the famous Olympics buildings in Beijing. Xie Xizhang, a literature critic, said that taking the "Shanzhai" Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the "Shanzhai" version appears naturally to attract people. "In spite of its poor techniques and operation, “Shanzhai" culture meets the psychological demands of common people and could be a comfort to their minds," Xie said. Tian Huiqun, a professor at Beijing Normal University, said that "Shanzhai" culture never copies classic things, only trendy products. In that sense, it's like a computer virus, multiplying without meaning. Though controversial, "Shanzhai" culture is becoming a widely accepted phenomenon. "To the mainstream culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge as well as a motivation," said Xie. Tian said different kinds of cultures developing together is an ideal situation and it is for the public to choose. 61. The Chinese word "Shanzhai" may have its origin in . A. fake cell phones B. electronic products C. Spring Festival Gala D. Olympics buildings 62. The underlined word" imitates" is closest in meaning to . A. steals B. copies C. advertises D. cheats 63.According to the passage，"Shanzhai" culture refers to . A .the action that a person imitates famous people B. anything that imitates something famous C. those similar names to famous brands D. products with poor techniques and quality 64. We can infer that the mainstream culture . A. will be held back by "Shanzhai" culture B. will sooner or later be replaced by "Shanzhai" culture C. may develop faster because of the challenging of "Shanzhai" culture D. thinks nothing of the challenge of" Shanzhai" culture 65. The passage mainly tells us that________. A. "Shanzhai" culture will definitely fade out B. "Shanzhai" culture-the mountain village culture C. "Shanzhai" culture-the mainstream culture D. "Shanzhai" culture takes on life of its own C Sandstorms hit northwestern China's Gansu Province and North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region on the first day this year. According to Sun Landong, a meteorologist with the Lanzhou Meteorology Observatory, visibility was less than 100 meters in Minqin, a Gansu county near Inner Mongolia, because of sand. When visibility drops to less than 1 kilometer, it is called a sandstorm. The sandstorm in Minqin blew up dust in neighboring towns, such as Baiyin, Wuwei, Jinchang and Lanzhou, the capital city of Gansu Province. Dust-laden winds also swept into Beijing. Brought by northwesterly blowing at more than 20 meters per second, dust first reached the capital's suburbs at 7 a. m., downtown areas at 9 a. m. The winds, which died down during the night, brought the temperature down to as low as 8 0C below zero and many flights put off their planned time from the city's airport. It is quite rare for sandstorms, which are frequent between March and June, to happen in winter, when the earth is frozen. The sandstorms in Gansu and Inner Mongolia do not necessarily mean there will be more of them in the spring than last year, when they were serious, but Beijing is taking it very seriously. It is reported that Beijing will spend 6 billion yuan (US 725 million) in preventing sandstorms in the capital and has already set up a spe¬cial team to make sure what causes them. 66. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Sandstorms took place in Gansu. B. Sandstorms happened on the first day of the new year. C. Sandstorms are very serious，compared to last year. D. Experts are trying their best to determine the cause of the sandstorm formed this year 67.Suppose the dust was 300 kilometers away from Beijing，it would reach Beijing about, hours later if it travels at a speed of 20 meters per second? A. 4.2 B. 1.5 C. 2.0 D. 2.5 68. Why did sandstorms begin in the winter this year? A. Because there was little snow this season. B. Because a lot of trees have been cut down. C. Because people took few measures to control them. D. It is not mentioned in the passage. 69. Which of the following doesn't belong to the bad effect the sandstorms have done in Bei¬jing? A. The temperature fell. B. Flights put off their time to take off. C. The air is dirty. D. People had three days off 70. The author wrote the passage to . A. tell us the environments are becoming worse and worse B. explain what measures people have taken to control sandstorms C. make people realize the need to protect the environment D. call on us to do what we can to save the earth. D English is fast becoming the language of science around the world， but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage of native English speakers is declining (降低) while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important. However，British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主导) by the middle of this century to rank，after Chinese，about equally with Arabic，Hindi，and Urdu. "The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise，but it isn't rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world，simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken，" he says. In a recent article in the journal Science，Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali，Tamil，and Malay，spoken in south and southeast Asia. David Crystal，the author of The Cambridge Encycloρedia of the English Lαηguage， says about 1. 5 billion of the world's six billion people speak it as a second tongue compared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance. "All the evidence suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster，but nobody quite knows what's going to happen because no language has been in this position before. " he said. 71.In David Graddol' s opinion，English will . A. remain widespread and important B. be more important than any other language C. lose its dominant position D. die away in the near future 72. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that . A. snowballs will roll down faster than language balls B. the English language snowball is rolling down faster than any time in the past C. English language will soon drop in dominance D. more and more language users will choose English 73. How many experts express their ideas about the future of English in the passage? A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5 74.According to David Graddol，which of the folowing will possibly be one of the languages that will be most widely spoken? A. Malay. B. Arabic. C. Urdu. D. German. 75. What should be the best title for the passage? A. English Remaining the Dominant Position B. The Future of English? Who Knows? C. Opinions from Different Experts D.

Besides, with the price of robots going down, they have begun to enter families, helping people do some housework and even care for patients or read books for babies. All of these suggest that robots are playing a big part in our life. By using robots, people can save time to do what they like. Meanwhile, they reduce the rate of death and injury in dangerous work. But can people be out of work because of the existence of robots? Certainly not! However clever robots are, they are made by humans and whatever they do, they just follow the instructions given to them by humans. Therefore, robots will never completely replace humans. Let’s enjoy the convenience brought by robots. (责任编辑：admin) |
