6、ccording to a life quality ranking that appeared in Britain“s Economist magazine last week. The ambitious attempt to compare happiness levels around the world is based on the principle that wealth is not the only measure of human satisfaction and well-being. The index of 111 countries uses data on i
7、ncomes, health, unemployment, climate, political stability, job security, gender equality as well as what the magazine calls “freedom, family and community life“. Despite the bad weather, troubled health service, traffic congestion (拥护), gender inequality, and the high cost of living, Ireland scored
8、 an impressive 8.33 points out of 10. That put it well ahead of second-place Switzerland, which managed 8.07. Zimbabwe, troubled by political insecurity and hunger, is rated the gloomiest (最差的), picking up only 3.89 points. “Although rising incomes and increased individual choices are highly valued,
9、“ the report said, “some of the factors associated with modernization such as the breakdown (崩溃) in traditional institutions and family values in part take away from a positive impact.“ “Ireland wins because it successfully combines the most desirable elements of the new with the preservation of cer
10、tain warm elements of the old, such as stable family and community life.“ The magazine admitted measuring quality of life is not a straightforward thing to do, and that its findings would have their critics. No. 2 on the list is Switzerland. The other nations in the top 10 are Norway, Luxembourg, Sw
11、eden, Australia, Iceland, Italy, Denmark and Spain. The UK is positioned at No. 29, a much lower position chiefly because of the social and family breakdown recorded in official statistics. The US, which has the second highest per capita GDP (人均国内生产总值) after Luxembourg, took the 13th place in the su

15、tional cosmetics (化妆品) empire and became one of the most influential women in US, has died on Saturday. Estee Lauder died at her home in Manhattan, New York City a company spokeswoman said. She was 97. 2 Born in Queens, New York in 1908, Lauder was the daughter of a Hungarian mother and a Czech fath
16、er. 3 Lauder began her business career by selling skincare products developed by her uncle John Schotz, a chemist, to beauty salons (美容院) and hotels. In 1930, she married Joseph Lauder who became her partner. The company, which became known as Estee Lauder, took off after World War . 4 In 1953, the
17、company introduced its first perfume (香水), Youth Dew, the first of a range of fragrances that has now grown to more than 70. They include: Aramis, a line of products for men, launched in 1964; and Clinique, a range of odourless (无嗅的) cosmetics, which followed in 1968. 5 By the time she retired in 19
18、95. Lauder was presiding over a multibillion-dollar enterprise, which now ranks number 349 in the Fortune 500 list of largest US companies. In 1998, she was the only woman to feature in Time magazine“s selection of the 20 most important business geniuses of the last century. There were two secrets t
19、o her success: her gift for selling things and her tireless energy and determination never to accept second best. 6 Even after her retirement at the age of 89, Lauder remained closely involved. Beauty, Lauder believed, was the most important thing in life. 7 She wrote in her 1985 autobiography, “Est

23、ccidents happened during a storm that hit the country on April 21. Hundreds more are missing or feared dead, The two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of Dhaka as strong winds and rain hit the South Asian country. The government has since banned all ferries and other boats from
24、travelling at night during the April-May stormy season. One of the ferries, MV Mitali, was carrying far more people than it was supposed to. About 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300, police said. The second ferry carried about 100 passengers. “The number of deaths is certain to ris
25、e,“ said an official in charge of the rescue work. “No one really knows how many people were on board the ferry or how many of them survived.“ Ferries in Bangladesh don“t always keep passenger lists, making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board. Besides the ferry accidents, a
26、t least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes, falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats. Storms are common this time of year in Bangladesh, as are boating accidents. Ferry disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people. Official
27、s blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures, too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions. Ferries are a common means of transport in Bangladesh. It is a country covered by about 230 rivers. Some 20,000 ferries use the nation“s waterways (水路) every year. An
28、d many of them are dangerously overcrowded (过度拥挤). Since 1977, more than 3,000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents.（分数：15.00）(1).How many people have been found dead in the two ferry disasters?（分数：3.00）A.More than 130.B.Over 3,000.C.About 400.D.At least 40.(2).The two ferry disasters occu

31、分数：15.00)Saving MoneyWhere you save your money often depends on what you are saving for. If you are saving to buy a dictionary or to go to a concert, then probably keep your money somewhere in your room. If you are saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip, where would you save
32、 your money? One place to save money is the bank. Putting your money in a savings account will help your money earn more money. If you put your money in a piggy bank (猪形储蓄罐), one year later you“ll still have the same amount of money you put in. If you put your money in a savings account, one year la
33、ter, you“ll have more money than you put in. Why? When you keep your money in a bank, your money earns interest. Interest is the amount of money a bank pays you to use your money. The bank uses your money (and the money of other people, too) to loan money to people and businesses. The bank will send
34、 you a statement several times a year. A bank statement tells you how much money there is in your account. It also tells you how much interest you have earned. If you leave your money in the bank, you can watch it grow! Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD. If you
35、have some money that you don“t need to use for a long time, this is a good way to make your money grow. You can buy a CD at a bank. You agree not to use the money for a certain period of time. That period might be from six months to five years. You can“t touch your money during that time. If you do,
36、 you must pay a penalty, or fee. Since the bank is using your money for that time period, it will pay you interest. You will earn more interest with a CD than in a savings account. Can you guess why? It“s because you promise to leave your money in the bank for a certain period of time. Banks pay dif
37、ferent rates of interest. So, you may want to compare rates in newspaper ads before buying a CD.（分数：15.00）(1).Which way will help your money earn more money?（分数：3.00）A.Putting your money in your room.B.Putting your money in a piggy bank.C.Putting your money in your pocket.D.Putting your money in a s
38、avings account.(2).Interest is the amount of money which（分数：3.00）A.a bank lends to people.B.a bank loans to businesses.C.a bank pays you.D.a bank uses.(3).A bank statement tells you（分数：3.00）A.the amount of money you have in the bank.B.the current rates of interest.C.the current rates of exchange.D.t
39、he best way to save your money.(4).If you draw your money before it is due,（分数：3.00）A.you have to pay interest to the bank.B.you have to close your account.C.you have to open a new account.D.you have to pay a penalty or fee.(5).The word “touch“ in paragraph 7 could be best replaced by（分数：3.00）A.“dep

He“s sure that they need to turn left. But she says it“s not for another two blocks. Who has the better sense of direction? Men or women.
41、 They both do, a new study says, but in different ways. Men and women, Canadian researchers have found, have different methods of finding their way. Men look quickly at landmarks (地标) and head off in what they think is the right direction. Women, however, try to picture the whole route in detail and
42、 then follow the path in their head. “Women tend to be more detailed,“ said Edward Cornell, who led the study, “while men tend to be a little bit faster and . a little bit more intuitive (直觉感知的).“ In fact, said Cornell, “sense of direction“ isn“t one skill but two. The first is the “survey method“.
43、This is when you see an area from above, such as a printed map. You can see, for example, where the hospital is, where the church is and that the supermarket is on its right. The second skill is the “route method“ This is when you use a series of directions. You start from the hospital, then turn le
44、ft, turn right, go uphilland then you see the supermarket. Men are more likely to use the survey method while women are more likely to use one route and follow directions. Both work, and neither is better. Some scientists insist that these different skills have a long history. They argue it is becau
45、se of the difference in traditional roles. In ancient times, young men often went far away with the older men to fish or hunt. The trip took hours or days and covered unfamiliar places. The only way to know where you were was to use the survey method to remember landmarksthe mountains, the lakes and
46、 so on. The women, on the other hand, took young girls out to find fruits and plants. These activities were much closer to home but required learning well-used paths. So, women“s sense of space was based on learning certain routes.（分数：15.00）(1).When finding his way, Dad tends to rely on（分数：3.00）A.hi
47、s intuitive knowledge.B.his book knowledge.C.Mum“s assistance.D.the police“s assistance.(2).Women are more likely to use（分数：3.00）A.the survey method.B.the traditional method.C.the route method.D.the right method.(3).Which works better, the route method or the survey method?（分数：3.00）A.The survey meth

Colorful corals (珊瑚) and even more colorful fishes and birds? You bet. There are thousands of islands in the Caribbean Sea. They are famous for their warm, tropical climate and great natural beauty.
