However careful one may be, he cannot possibly listen carefully to everything

1.
The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. “we
worry more about their safety in the holidays,” explains one mother from North
London. If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and
potentially dangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room!
Well, that’s an extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about

how much freedom they can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.
Weekends are not the only time to worry! Newspapers are full of stories about too
many school kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to
travel alone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of
teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net. All the
Media stories help increase parents fears, but is the UK really so dangerous?
Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier. In the 1960s young
people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents.
“At least our parents can keep tabs on us,” says 16yearold Julia.“So many people
have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are. I use my
mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late.” Mobiles are not just
expensive toys; they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they make
parents feel better. Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been
attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.
Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home
safely. Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat
rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their
personal details to a stranger. Young people today have more opportunities to meet
new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did. Now schools,
television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to
be responsible for their own safety.
(1).

children _______.
(A).

(C).
(D).
答案：D
wander around on bus in the city
chat to strangers in Internet chat rooms

(2).
For the sake of the safety, many parents send their kids to school _______.
(A).
by car
(B).
by bus
(C).
by train
(D).
by public transport
答案：A

The threat of a global outbreak (疾病大爆发) of bird flu makes it urgent for
the international community to cooperate effectively. Wealthy countries will have to
provide hundreds of millions of dollars for the testing and production of medicines
necessary for treating patients suffering from bird flu. Developing countries,
particularly in Southeast Asia, where the bird flu virus (病毒) has spread since
1997, must work out special programs so that farmers will not hide signs of possible
outbreaks. In addition, the way such farm birds as chickens and ducks are
traditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed; there
should be more distance between the birds and their keepers. Countries should deal
with the disease with joint effort. If one country is inadequately prepared, it will
be a threat to every other country.
The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous. Firstly, an
outbreak may kill large numbers of people. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates
that an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4
million people. If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed 50
million, the number would be much higher. Secondly, such an outbreak may cause great
financial damage. The latest outbreak of bird flu, which began in December 2003, has
cost Southeast Asia more than ＄10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent. If
a new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year, ＄800 billion would be
lost.
Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003, the
virus remains mainly a disease of animals. However, the more animals that die of the
disease, the more chances it has of spreading to people. Large numbers of dead or
dying birds mean that more people will be exposed to the virus, which could in
theory combine with a human flu virus and change into a virus with new

characteristics. If the international community works together efficiently, man can
surely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.

答案：B

(2).

Many of today’s most trusted sales techniques were invented over a century ago
by a young merchant named Eaton in Toronto. When he was young, Eaton worked briefly
with his brothers in smalltown stores. In 1869, he set up his own shop in downtown

/club/5346389
Toronto. He had many competitors, but he was also ambitious and had a plan for
success. He offered a unique style of trade, but as was expected, all the other
shopkeepers laughed at him, believing he would eventually fail. However, Eaton was
not a man to be easily defeated; he came up with a brand new notion of
business—“Goods satisfactory, or money refunded.” He sold all his goods at fixed
prices and only for cash.
With a sharp sense of what the public wanted, he went out of whe way to meet their
needs. His business grew rapidly. He set up new branches and started mail order
service that allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.
Eaton’s List—advertisements of his day—was the first of its kind. It was
distributed and read all over the country. It was the only way to access goodquality
goods at reasonable prices for people living far away from big cities. It became
part of their life. They even called it The Wishing Book. The secret of the list’s
success was that Eaton gained the respect of his customers; they trusted him for
good prices and quality goods. Probably because he remembered his miserable early
days in Ireland, Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees: better working
conditions, shorter weekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off
in the summer. In all this, he was a leader.
best description of Eaton is that .
was the richest merchant in was a successful technical inventor
introduced new sales changed people’s ideas about businessmen

1.
There is a clear distinction between one who is supposed to know and another,
usually a younger person who is supposed not to know. However, teaching is not
necessarily the area of a special group of people, nor should it be looked upon as a
technical skill. Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing
information into a blank mind. If you have a certain skill, you should be able to
share it with others. You do not have to get a certificate to convey what you know
to them or to help them in their attempt to teach themselves. All of us, from the
very youngest children to the oldest members of our society, should come to realize
our own talent and abilities as teachers. We can share what we know, however little
it might be, with others who have need of that knowledge or skill.
答案：一般认为，有知识的人与没有知识的人——他们通常是较年轻的人——之间的区别非常明
显。然而，教学不一定是某个特殊群体的领域，也不应该被看作是一项专业技能。教学不止是将
信息硬塞进空白的头脑，而更应是指导和帮助。只要你有某种特定的技能，你就应当能与他人分
享。你没必要持有证书才能把你的知识传授给他人，或为他们的自学提供帮助。我们社会中的每
一个成员，从蹒跚学步的孩童到耄耋之年的老者，都应当意识到自己作为教师的才能。尽管我们
可能知之甚少，但仍应能与那些需要我们的人来分享我们的知识和技能。
