Police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000 passively resisting protestors Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. “This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law,” he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read “No Nukes is Good Nukes,” “Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power,” and “Stop Private Profits from Public Peril.” They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.1.What were the demonstrators protesting about?[A] Private profits.[B]Nuclear Power Station.[C] The project of nuclear power construction.[D] Public peril.2.Who had gas-masks?[A] Everybody.[B]A part of the protestors.[C] Policemen.[D] Both B and C.3..Which of the following was NOT mentioned as a reason for the demonstration?[A] Public transportation.[B]Public peril.[C] Pollution.[D] Disposal of wastes.4..With whom were the jails and courts overloaded?[A] With prisoners.[B]With arrested demonstrators.[C] With criminals.[D] With protestors.5.What is the attitude of Governor Stanforth Thumper toward the power project and the demonstration?[A] stubborn.[B]insistent.[C] insolvable.[D] remissible.Vocabulary1.tear gas                  瓦斯2.passively resisting protestor      不抵抗的抗议者3.stage                  发起，举行，上演4.break up                       驱散，终止5.cordon                  警戒线，警戒6.nuke                  （美俚）核武器，核电站7.defy                  公然蔑视/反抗8.canister            罐，筒，榴霰弹筒9.islodge                  赶走10.charge                  冲锋，向前冲11.trespass            非法侵入，扰乱

People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions — and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.
Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.
"We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions," Jack said. "Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth."
According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of. expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. "The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions," Jack said. "Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less."
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.1. The discovery shows that Westerners
A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth
B. consider facial expressions universally reliable
C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways
D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 2. What were the people asked to do in the study?A. To make a face at each other.
B. To get their faces impressive.C. To classify some face pictures.
D. To observe the researchers' faces. 3. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. The participants in the study.B. The researchers of the study.C. The errors made during the study.
D. The data collected from the study. 4. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to
.A. do translation more successfullyB. study the mouth more frequentlyC. examine the eyes more attentivelyD. read facial expressions more correctly5. What can be the best title for the passage?

Sitting on the peaceful coast of Galapagos Islands. Ecuador, watching the sun move quietly into the sea, you shouldn't forget that Charles Darwin () arrived here in 1835. He stayed on the islands for five weeks, observing various animals. This finally inspired (启发) his famous work, On the Origin of Species. You can certainly follow Darwin's footsteps and enjoy a trip from four to seven days to the islands. The islands are certainly a paradise (天堂) for wildlife, as there are no natural killers on the islands and the number of boats and visitors is under government control. Though you cannot walk freely as Darwin did about 200 years ago, each day is as impressive as it could be. The most well-known animal of the Galapagos is the giant tortoise(巨型海龟), which can be seen moving slowly around the highlands of Sanra Cruz, the second largest island in the archipelago(群岛). Some of these creatures are so old that they might have been seen in their youth by Darwin himself. Despite strict control over activities and timing, your stay on the Galapagos will be remembered as a chain of incomparable pictures: diving with sea lions that swim and play
feeling small sharks touch y and, most magically, seeing a whale and her baby surface with a great breath of air. Travelling between the islands and observing the wildlife that so inspired Darwin, you will feel as though you are getting a special view of an untouched world. At night you will sleep on board the ship, leaving the wildlife in complete occupation of the islands, which are as undisturbed now as they have been since the beginning of time.1. What do we know about Darwin's visit to the islands?A. He studied different creatures on the islandsB. He completed his famous book on the islandsC. He was touched by the geography of the islandsD. He was attracted by well-known animals of the islands2.
Which of the following plays a role in making the islands "a paradise for wildlife"?A. Animals on the islands feed on grass.B. Local government forbids killing wildlife.C. People cannot visit the islands as they wish.D. Tourists are not allowed to touch the animals.3.
Your stay on the islands will be most impressive mainly because of_________.A. The beautiful sea viewsB. Darwin's inspiring tripC. a closer view of animalsD. various daring activities4.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. A Unique Attraction for Wildlife LoversB. Calapagos as a Paradise for AdventuresC. Charles Darwin as a Symbol of GalapagosD. A Successful Example of Wildlife Protection

Many people think a telephone is essential. But I think it is a pest and a time waster. Very often you find it impossible to escape from some idle or curious chatter-box, or from somebody who wants something for nothing. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when you are taking your bath. Are you strong minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself,“Ah, well, it will all be the same in a hundred years’ time” You are not. You think there may be some important news or messages for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you never rushed dripping from the bath, or chewing from the table, or dazed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isn’t it important to have a telephone in case of emergency—illness, an accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly populated country like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.I think perhaps I had better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different circumstances—if I were a tycoon(business VIP),for instance, or bed ridden I might find a telephone essential. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car essential.Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to sh one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. My own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them. For I have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.1.The passage is mainly discussing _______.A. that we should be strong enough to ignore a phone callB. that important message will reach you sooner or laterC. whether it’s necessary to answer all phone callsD. whether it is necessary to have a telephone2.Judging from the passage, who is strong-minded enough to ignore a phone call?A. The author.
B.A tycoon.C.A taxi-driver.
D. Hardly anyone.3.According to the passage, the author________.A. thinks the telephone should go out of our lifeB. likes to be different from other peopleC. thinks the telephone is annoyingD. speaks favourably of a telephone4.In the author’s opinion, which of the following is NOT true?A. Nearly everyone has been told a wrong number.B. It’s necessary for everyone to have a telephone.C. He himself can not decide whether to answer a call.D.A telephone directory may bring in unexpected calls.

Advertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. ‘It’s iniquitous,’ they say, ‘that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays…’The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the ‘small ads.’ which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine.  What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or ‘agony’ column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is! 1.What is main idea of this passage?A.  Advertisement.   B.  The benefits of advertisement.C.  Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.D.  The costs of advertisement.2.The attitude of the author toward advertisers isA.  appreciative.B.  trustworthy.C.  critical.D.  dissatisfactory.3.Why do the critics criticize advertisers?A.  Because advertisers often brag.B.  Because critics think advertisement is a “waste of money”.C.  Because customers are encouraged to buy more than necessary.D.  Because customers pay more.4.Which of the following is Not True?A.  Advertisement makes contribution to our pockets and we may know everything.B.  We can buy what we want.C.  Good quality products don’t need to be advertised.D.  Advertisement makes our life colorful.5.The passage is A.  Narration.B.  Description.C.  Criticism.D.  Argumentation.  Vocabularycome in for ( sth. )      是某事物的对象，吸引（某事物），获得flair            天资，天分iniquitous            极邪恶的，极不公正的drab            单调的，乏味的subsist            活下去，生存下去，维持下去hatch            孵化（指生孩子）match            匹配，婚姻dispatch            派遣，发送agony            极大痛苦，煎熬agony column      （报刊中关于个人疑难问题征询意见的）读者来信专栏
