The company says it is the only test in
4、 the UK to be approved by the government. Genera was formed five years ago and until October last year had only five employees. It now employs 14.

Several thousand peo
8、ple were left without power in Kent County. One woman suffered minor head and neck injuries. “It felt as if the whole house was being slid across like a fun-fair ride,“ said the woman. The British Geological Survey said the 4.3-magnitude quake struck at 8.19 a. m. and was centered under the English
9、Channel, about 8.5 miles south of Dover and near the entrance to the Channel Tunnel. Witnesses said cracks appeared in walls and chimneys collapsed across the county. Residents said the tremor had lasted for about 10 to 15 seconds. “I was lying in bed and it felt as if someone had just got up from b
10、ed next to me,“ said Hedrick van Eck, 27, of Canterbury about 60 miles southeast of London. “I then heard the sound of cracking, and it was getting heavier and heavier. It felt as if someone was at the end of my bed hopping up and down. “ There are thousands of moderate quakes on this scale around t
11、he world each year, but they are rare in Britain. The April 28 quake was the strongest in Britain since 2002 when a 4.8-magnitude quake struck the central England city of Birmingham. The country“s strongest earthquake took place in the North Sea in 1931, measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale. British G
12、eological Survey scientist Roger Musson said the quake took place on 28 April in an area that had seen several of the biggest earthquakes ever to strike Britain, including one in 1580 that caused damage in London and was felt in France. Musson predicted that it was only a matter of time before anoth
13、er earthquake struck this part of England. However, people should not be scared too much by this prediction, Musson aid, as the modern earthquake warning system of Britain should be able to detect a forthcoming quake and announce it several hours before it takes place. This would allow time for peop

It“s about being genuinely interested and having regular conversations about what they“re learning,“ says J. Gary Knowles, a professor at the Ontario Institute for
18、Studies in Education, part of the University of Toronto. Rozon has a slew of suggestions for how to get more involved. “Get to know the teacher. Discuss ways to tailor the assignments to your child“s learning style. Spend time in the classroom. Ask for outlines of unit studies so you can find supple
19、mentary materials at the library or through videos. Read your child“s textbooks. If you work a few pages ahead, you“ll be able to help them with problems they encounter.“ “Reading is another must,“ says Rozon. “Even after your children can read themselves, hearing somebody else read aloud is importa
20、nt. We nearly always have a book on the bed; we read for at least a half hour before bedtime. “ The more engaged a parent is, the more the child benefit, adds Bruce Arai. “The evidence is clear. Parental involvement is one of the most important factors in school success.“ Arai cites the National Lon
21、gitudinal Survey of Children and Youth sponsored by Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC), which is measuring all aspects of child development. “The hours children spend in class are but one element of their education.“ states HRDC, which says parental support, along with teacher support and a p
22、ositive attitude towards school, all contribute to academic success. “I see every moment of every day as a learning experience.“ says Goforth. “The most satisfying part of it is seeing the love of learning continued. I“m not squelching my children“s desire to learn by insisting they learn. They lear
23、n because they want to.“ Adds Jeanne Lambert, mother of Carey Graham: “Make the time, take the time, guide, lead, and encourage. If nothing else, your children learn you care, and that“s the most important lesson you can give them.“（分数：21.00）(1).According to the passage, parents should help their ch

27、biggest losers are mostly in the former Soviet bloc (集团) and sub-Saharan Africa? History is a partial guide. East Asia has a long trading tradition, lately reinvigorated (给以新的活力) by the Chinese adoption of market economics. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, was sheltered from free-market forces f
28、or more than 70 years. In Africa, some countries are disadvantaged because of inadequate infrastructure (基础结构). Many countries have little to trade but commodities, the prices of which have fallen in recent years. In some regions, certain countries have suffered by adopting misguided policies, often
29、 under pressure from International Monetary Fund. First among these is Russia, which in the early 1990s tried to embrace capitalism before first building the institutions that make capitalism work, such as an independent bank system, a system of business law, and all adequate method for collecting t
30、axes. Encouraged by the IMF the World Bank and the US Department of the Treasury, President Boris Yeltsin“s regime privatized the state owned industrial sector, creating a class of oligarchs (寡头政治集团成员), who knowing how unstable conditions were at home, sent their money abroad instead of investing it
31、 at home. In contrast, China, the biggest winner from globalization, did not follow the IMF formula. Of the former states of the Soviet bloc, only a few, notably Poland and Hungary, managed to grow, which they did by ignoring IMF advice and adopting expansionary plans, including spending more than t
32、hey collected in taxes. Botswana and Uganda are also success stories, despite their disadvantages, their countries achieved vigorous growth by creating stable civil societies, liberalizing trade and implementing reforms that ran counter to IMF prescriptions.（分数：21.00）(1).Japan has a long trading tra

35、numerous studies have been conducted to determine whether smoking is a health hazard. The trend of the evidence has been consistent and indicates that there is a serious health risk. Research teams have conducted studies that show beyond all reasonable doubt that tobacco smoking is associated with a
36、 shortened life expectancy. Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be an important factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and cancer of the throat and is believed to be related to cancer of some other organs of the body. Male cigarette smokers have a higher
37、 death rate from heart disease than non-smoking males. Female smokers are thought to be less affected because they do not breathe in the smoke so deeply. Apart from statistics, it might be helpful to look at what tobacco does to the human body. Smoke is a mixture of gases, vaporized chemicals, minut
38、e particles of ash and other solids. There is also nicotine, which is powerful poison, and black tar. As smoke is breathed in, all those components will be from deposits on the membranes of the lungs. One point of concentration is where the air tube and bronchus divides. Most lung cancer begins at t
39、his point. Filters and low tar tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extent safer, but they can only slightly reduce, not eliminate the hazards.（分数：21.00）(1).It is easy to determine whether smoking is hazardous.（分数：3.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(2).Smoking reduces one“s life expectancy.（分数
