The original chocolate drink

11、was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still

12、exist today. The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine“ of 1845 - 1846, and thousands more wer

13、e forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the worlds largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But i

14、t is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s. According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wideawak

18、ered in South American countriesD.coffee drinks were first made by ArabsLast Fourth of July, Pete, a 14-year-old, was enjoying the lit-up skies and loud booms from the fireworks being set off in his neighborhood. Suddenly, the evening took a terrible turn. A bottle rocket shot into his eye, immediat

19、ely causing him terrible pain. His family rushed him to the emergency room for treatment. As a result of the injury, Pete developed glaucoma and cataracts. Today, Pete has permanent vision loss in his injured eye because of his bottle rocket injury. June is Fireworks Eye Safety Awareness Month, and

20、through its EyeSmart campaign the American Academy of Ophthalmology wants to remind consumers to leave fireworks to professionals. “There is nothing worse than a Fourth of July celebration ruined by someone being hit in the eye a bottle rocket,“ said Dr. John C. Hagan, clinical correspondent for the

21、 Academy and an ophthalmologist at Discover Vision Centers in Kansas City. “A safe celebration means letting trained professionals handle fireworks while you enjoy the show.“ According to the U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 9,000 fireworks-related injuries happen each year. Of th

22、ese, nearly half are head-related injuries, with nearly 30 percent of these injuries to the eye. One-fourth of fireworks eye injuries result in permanent vision loss or blindness. Children are the most common victims of firework abuse, with those fifteen years old or younger accounting for 50 percen

23、t of fireworks eye injuries in the United States. Dr. Hagan estimates that his practice sees more than 30 injuries each year from fireworks. Even fireworks that many people consider safe represent a threat to the eyes. For children under the age of five, apparently harmless sparklers account for one

24、-third of all fireworks injuries. Sparklers can burn at nearly 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit.（分数：10.00）(1).What happened to Pete last Fourth of July?（分数：2.00）A.He was burned in a house fire.B.He was caught in a rain.C.He was injured in a fight.D.He was hit in the eye.(2).The American Academy of Ophthalmo

27、n.B.They are considered safe by many people.C.They are a threat to the eyes.D.They can burn at very high degrees.A quality education is the ultimate liberator. It can free people from poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society. It can also fr

28、ee communities and countries, allowing them to leap forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible. For this reason, the international community has committed itself to getting all the worlds children into primary school by 2015, a commitment known as Education

29、for All. Can education for all be achieved by 2015? The answer is definitely “yes“, although it is a difficult task. If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum of five years of primary school, instead of just enrolling for classes, which used to be the measurin

30、g stick for education, then the challenge becomes even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates. The number rises to 88 if completion rates are used as the criterion. Still, the goal is achievable with

31、the right policies and the right support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems. They also need

32、significant increases in external financing and technical support. The 29 countries lagging farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented rates of progress. But this is attainable with creative solution, including use of information technologies, flexible and targeted foreign aid, an

33、d fewer people living in poverty. A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a countrys capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management. Where a country scores well on these criteria, foreign assistance can be highly effective.（分数：

34、10.00）(1).In the first paragraph, the author suggests that a quality education can_.（分数：2.00）A.free countries from foreign rulesB.speed up social progressC.give people freedomD.liberate people from any exploitation(2).Ideally, the goal of the program of Education for All is to_by 2015.（分数：2.00）A.get

35、 all the worlds children to complete primary schoolB.enroll all the worlds children into primary schoolC.give quality education to people of 88 countriesD.support those committed to transforming their education systems(3)._countries are now at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of

36、completion rates.（分数：2.00）A.32B.59C.29D.88(4).According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned as the right policy?（分数：2.00）A.Raising the efficiency of education systems.B.Improving the quality of education.C.Using information technologies.D.Building more primary schools.(5).As can

37、be gathered from the last paragraph, foreign aid_.（分数：2.00）A.may not be highly effectiveB.is provided only when some criteria are metC.alone makes development possibleD.is most effective for those countries lagging farthest behindThe scariest part of buying a used car is not being completely sure of

38、 what condition its in. A car thats been in a major accident is always a bigger risk, but sellers often try to hide this information. Andrew Bleakley, evaluator-inspector, runs a mobile vehicle inspection service in Montreal. For about $ 80 he will perform a full, unbiased inspection on a used vehic

39、le. In his 10 years as a professional inspector, Bleakley has seen a lot. He warns, “Watch out for dealer demonstration vehicles which are used, not new. They may have been in a collision.“ He adds that it is not uncommon in Ontario and Quebec especially for unscrupulous sellers to roll back the odo

40、meter or to even disengage it. Bleakley has special tools to check for this. Bleakley always recommends hiring an independent technician to inspect the condition of a used car before you buy it. The problem is finding someone qualified to do the inspection, which he says generally doesnt mean just a

41、ny mechanic. A thorough mechanical inspection includes checking the compression, all major systems, including the engine, electrical and charging systems, transmission and drive line, fluids, brakes, suspension, and steering. Essential, too, is all inspection of the cars body and finally a road test

42、. There are, however, a few things everyone can do before buying a used car: Do a visual check of the car. Look at the right rear door hinges. If they are very worn, or the door doesnt close well, the car may have been used as a taxi. Holes in the roof could mean the car was used for deliveries. Che

43、ck for oil leaks on the pavement. Note that leaks are not necessarily a significant problem it depends on the cause. Dont assume that new-looking brake and accelerator pedals mean the car hasnt been driven much. Resellers know people check these details and can buy new pads for around $ 6. Copy down

44、 the vehicle identification number(V1N), a 17-character combination of numbers and letters, from the vehicles dashboard. In Ontario, ask the dealer or seller for the Used Vehicle Information Package. This gives details of previous owners, any outstanding liens on the car, and the fair market value o

45、f the vehicle.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, in buying a second-hand vehicle it is most important to know（分数：2.00）A.how long it has been usedB.what color it isC.whether it has been in a collisionD.whether it leaks oil(2).All of the following are mentioned as tricks which dishonest second-ha

46、nd car dealers may play upon their customers EXCEPT_.（分数：2.00）A.to repaint the carB.to roll back the odometerC.to replace the old pedalD.to disengage the odometer(3).The underlined words “an independent technician“ in the second paragraph refer to（分数：2.00）A.a technician who checks a car free of char

47、geB.a technician who learned his trade all by himselfC.a technician who works for a particular car-dealerD.a technician who runs his own inspection service(4).According to Bleakley, before buying a used car all the inspection work can（分数：2.00）A.be done by a mechanic together with the dealerB.only be

48、 done by a qualified mechanicC.be done by the buyer himselfD.be done by a qualified mechanic together with the buyer(5).According to the passage, from which of the following can the buyer obtain reliable information of the previous owner?（分数：2.00）A.The vehicle identification number.B.The unbiased in

49、spector.C.The second-hand car dealer.D.The Used Vehicle Information Package.三、Cloze(总题数：1，分数：20.00)People in Beijing wear a lot of clothing during winter to defend off the cold.
