13、y want, and spend as much as they like. The policy changes are sure to put more money into Cuba“s dying economy, and many would-be travelers are already call for still more barriers to fall. Even Fidel Castro (菲德尔卡斯特罗), who had belittled the changes Monday, yielded Tuesday that they were “positive,

14、although minimal“. The United States still doesn“t let most Americans without ties to Cuba visit the island or send in money. But the change, announced Monday by the Obama administration, was among the most significant openings in the half-century of hostilities between the two countries. During the

15、 Bush administration, Americans with immediate family members on the island could visit once every three years and send up to $100 a month to their families. Now, there are no limits to travel or expense, and the definition of family is expanded to include relatives as distant as second cousins, as

19、three years.六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Of all Barry H. Landau“s anecdotes about his friendships with presidential dogs, perhaps the best is the one about the time the Clinton White House called to postpone his play-date with Buddy. Yes, Landau is both human and an adult, a 60-year-old author, pres

20、idential historian, former White House protocol officer and memorabilia collector. But so enamored is he of dogs, and so well connected to a succession of presidents, that he had an appointment for a South Lawn romp one day with Buddy, Bill Clinton“s Labrador retriever (拉布拉多犬). Logistics got in the

21、way, though, and hence Clinton secretary Betty Currie“s apologetic voice mail left at the Smithsonian Institution, where Landau was doing research: “I“m sorry, but we“ll have to reschedule Mr. Landau“s play-date with Buddy.“ Not surprisingly, this is a happy week for Landau, with the new Obama famil

22、y dog, Bo, joining a White House tradition that dates to George Washington. It“s one that Landau feels is invaluable to a presidency. “Having a dog just humanizes a president,“ he says. “It completes the picture. It“s something people can relate to.“ And Landau has related to the best of them. He“s

23、known about 25 White House dogs since the Eisenhower administration. Among the presidential-pooch memorabilia in his Manhattan apartment are matching orange inaugural dog coats worn by LBJ“s twin beagles (小猎犬), Him and Her, and a photo of Landau kissing Clipper, JFK“s German shepherd.（分数：12.00）(1).W

26、care for an animal.D.It is the tradition of White House as a president.七、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.00)The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them. To the surprise of his passenger, the car did not slow down. Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put

27、on his brakes at the last moment. The car stopped just in time. “Sorry, I didn“t notice the light. I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining.“ This strange story is quite true. About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way; women are luckieronly abou

28、t one in two hundred suffers from color blindness. In some cases, a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all the same as green. People often like one color more than others. Blue is the color of the sky and sea. Green makes us think of fields and trees. R

29、ed is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger. Black is the color of night.

33、opular because they are usually very exciting. In London there is a television programme called “Police Five “because it is on for five minutes once a week.
