24、n chat room conversation, or trading e-mail with Web pals, you have became one of the millions who write in a special short form of English. And youve got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF( = sense of humor failure)to describe Internet new comers who understand you. Across the globe, ever

25、y night teenagers and their elders are “talking“ online many of them all talking at the same time. Its fast try talking to six people at once. Its brief three or four words per exchange. It takes wit (诙谐 ), and quick fingers. Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI( = pardon me for jumping in)

26、. Interested in whom youre talking to? A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pals age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal. If something makes you laugh, say youre OTF ( = on the floor), or LOL ( = laughing out loud, or combine the two into ROTFL( = rolling o

27、n the floor laughing). And when its time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG(got to go)or TYYL( =talk to you later). People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing stron

28、g feeling, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift“ key and use capitals. Punctuation (标点 ) is going, too. 56 In order to talk to several people at the same time on the Internet,_. （ A） you have to speak fast and fluently （ B） you should speak with wit and humor （ C） one should pay much attent

29、ion to the use of exact words （ D） you have to express your ideas in a brief way 57 If you get 17/F/NY as an answer to your A/S/L, it means_. （ A） you are talking to a girl who is 17 and lives in New York （ B） the people who is talking to you is a 1.7 foot tall New York girl （ C） you are talking to

And winter is colder than summer. But the earth goes through temperature cycles over much longer periods than those that w

32、e experience. Between 65,000 and 35,000 years ago, the planet was much colder than it is now. During that time the temperature also changed a lot, with periods of warming and cooling. Ice melted during the warm periods, which made sea levels rise. Water froze again during the cold periods. A new stu

33、dy from Switzerland, sheds light on (使某事清楚明白地显示 ) where ice sheets (冰川 ) melted during the ice age. It now seems that the ice melted at both ends of the earth, rather than just in either northern or southern regions (区域 ). This surprised the researchers from the University of Bern (伯恩大学 ). Scientist

34、s have long assumed (假设 ) that most of the ice that melted was in the Northern hemisphere (半球 ) during the 30,000 year long ice age. That belief was held because the North Pole is surrounded by land, while the South Pole is surrounded by the Antarctic Ocean. It is easier for ice sheets to grow on la

35、nd. If surrounded by sea the ice can easily just slip into the ocean instead of building up. The researchers used a computer model to look at ways the ice could melt and how it might affect sea levels. They compared these results to evidence (证据 ) of how temperatures and currents actually changed du

36、ring that time. The model showed that if it was only in the Northern hemisphere that ice melted, there would have been a bigger impact (影响 ) on ocean currents (流 ) and sea temperatures than what actually happened. Studies suggest that melting just in the Southern hemisphere would have been impossibl

37、e, too. The only reasonable conclusion, the scientists could make, was that ice melted equally in the North and the South. It is still a mystery (神秘的事物 ) as to what caused the temperature changes that caused the ice to melt. 59 The North Pole is surrounded by land, while the South Pole is surrounded

38、 by the Antarctic Ocean. So scientists thought that_. （ A） most of the ice melted in the Northern hemisphere （ B） most of the ice melted in the Southern hemisphere （ C） The North Pole is colder than the South Pole （ D） The South Pole is colder than the North Pole 60 We can infer from the passage_. （

39、 A） the ice can easily just slip into the ocean （ B） volcanoes caused the ice to melt （ C） melting just in the Northern hemisphere would have been impossible （ D） researchers often use the computer models to help their research work 61 The scientists are not sure_. （ A） how long the ice age lasted （

40、 B） where ice sheets (冰川 ) melted during the ice age （ C） what caused the temperature changes （ D） what the earth is made up of 62 The passage is mainly about_. （ A） a computer model （ B） studies which show ice melted equally in the North and the South during the ice age （ C） most of the ice melted

41、in the Northern hemisphere (半球 ) during the 30,000 year long ice age （ D） a survey result 63 New Yorks streets were covered by people dressed in elephant costumes (服装 )and others waving anti war posters with pictures of U. S. President George W. Bush on them last week. But this was no carnival (狂欢节

42、) it was the Republican Partys National Convention (共和党全国大会 ), which attracted thousands of protestors (抗议者 ). It was the largest protest ever at a U. S. political convention, with at least 120,000 people marching through Manhattan on August 29. They demanded that the U. S. leave Iraq and a new pres

43、ident be chosen. The Republicans say the opposition Democrat Party (民主党 ) encouraged the people on to the streets. They believe it is a Democratic move to help win presidential election, to be held on November 2. The election is described as “the decisive battle between donkey and elephant“. The two

44、 animals are the symbols of the two major political parties in the U.S. The elephant represents (象征 ) the Republicans, whose candidate (候选人 ) , President George W. Bush, is trying to defeat the donkey to win his second term. The donkey represents the Democrats, whose candidate, John Kerry, is trying

45、 to kick the elephant out of the White House. Republicans think the elephant is powerful and clever, but the Democrats argue it is stupid and conservative (守旧的 ). In return, the Republicans regard the donkey as stubborn (倔强的 ) and silly but the Democrats say it is humble, plain, smart and courageous

46、. The Republicans have been sending e-mails to Bush supporters and journalists with the header, “An Elephant Never Forgets“, said party spokeswoman Heather Layman. Elephants are known for their long memories. The e-mails suggest that Bush will keep his promises, while Kerry will not stick to his wor

47、ds. It is interesting that both symbols were created by a single person, Thomas Nest, a famous political cartoonist of the late 19th century. During the election in 1874, Nest drew a cartoon, in which a donkey in a lions skin frightened an elephant marked “Republican“. 63 In the passage, the donkey

48、stands for _. （ A） the White House （ B） the Republicans （ C） the Democrats （ D） John Kerry 64 What does “kick the elephant out of the White House“ mean? （ A） Drive the animal ont of the White House. （ B） Drive President Bush out of power. （ C） Keep the elephant out of the White House. （ D） Insist on

49、 Bushs being elected. 65 In the eyes of the Republicans, the donkey is considered as_. （ A） clever （ B） foolish （ C） polite （ D） brave 66 Which of the following in NOT true? （ A） The same artist created the two symbols. （ B） The e-mails suggest Kerry will not carry out his promises. （ C） An Elephant Never Forgets means that an elephant has a bad memory. （ D） John Kerry is
