A senior United Nations Children's fund (UNICEF) official on May.29 praised China

for its remarkable achievements in children's welfare(福利).

A.H.M. Farook, UNICEF's operations area officer for China and Mongolia said that

"China can be very satisfied to tell the whole world what can be done with limited resources to help its children to grow healthily and happily."

China's child population makes up one fifth of the world's total.

"The reason behind the tremendous(巨大的) achievement is China's long tradition of caring for children both at home and in society," he said.

“What's more is that Chinese people have always given special attention to children who are in special need."

The UN official made the remarks when addressing a group of 50 children and staff from the Beijing Children's Welfare Home at the Shangri la Hotel, Beijing.

The hotel invited the orphans to share snacks(小吃), sing, dance and play games at a park inside the hotel for a "Share the Sunshine" party, as a prelude(前奏) to celebrations to mark the Children's Day.

The Beijing children's Welfare Home, set up soon after New China was founded in 1949,has at present more than 400 children.

A leading official of the welfare institution said that the children live a happy life and that the agency (机构) spends 400500 yuan a month for an average orphan. An average Chinese workers earned 440 yuan a month during the first quarter this year.

Gu Xiaojin, deputy secretary general of the China Youth Development Foundation (C

YDF),said people from all walks of like have contributed to the welfare of the Chinese children.

She said that CYDF set up the Project Hope in 1989,which walls on people across the country to donate money to help poor children to continue their schooling.

By the end of last year, she said, CYDF had collected nearly 700 million yuan in donations, which has helped the establishment(建立) of 2,074 Hope primary schools and enabled more than 1.25 million dropouts to return to school classrooms.

Three "Hope Stars" also attended the party. They were model teenagers chosen among students who are economically supported by the Project Hope to further their nine" year compulsory(义务) studies in the poverty stricken regions. They will be torchbearers(火炬接力者) for the Chinese Team for the up coming Atlanta Olympic Games this year.

We cannot feel speed. But our senses let us know that we are moving. We see things moving past us and feel that we are being shaken.

We can feel acceleration, an increase in speed, but we notice it for only a short time. For instance, we feel it during the takeoff run of an airliner.

We feel the plane's acceleration because our bodies do not gain speed as fast as the plane does. It seems that something is pushing us back against the seat. Actually our bodies are trying to stay in the same place, while the plane is carrying us forward.

Soon the plane reaches a steady speed. Then, because there is no longer any change in speed, the feeling of forward motion stops.

64. We can tell that we are moving by _______.

A. watching things move past B. feeling the speed

C. feeling ourselves being shaken D. both A and C

65. During the takeoff of a plane, we feel that we are being ______.

A. thrown forward B. pushed back against the seat

C. lifted out of the seat D. pushed down into the seat

66. We feel the plane's acceleration because our bodies gain speed _______.

A. just as fast as the plane B. faster than the plane

C. more slowly than the plane D. before the plane

67. This feeling stops when _______.

A. the plane stops climbing B. the plane lands

C. there is no longer a change in speed D. we begin to feel speed

D

There're five people at our table, including myself. I've already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we've been at sea, although we rarely meet except at mealtimes.

First of all, there's Dr Stone. He's a man of about sixty five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now travelling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the Army and visited many countries. He's told us a great deal about the city to which we are going.

Then there's “Grandmother". I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks remarkably young, not more than fifty. She's on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.

Then there's a man I don't care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.

The other person who sits at our table is Mrs Hunt. I've found out hardly anything about her. She's extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult the doctor about children's various illness. She's on her way to join her husband in India.

68.“At sea”means ______.

A. at the seaside B. in the seawater C. in the ship D. fell off the ship

69. Mr.Stone knows many cities because he _______.

A. is a doctor B. was a doctor

C. used to serve in the Army D. is travelling round the world

70. The writer calls the second person “Grandmother” because_______.

A. she looks old B. she had three daughters

C. he respects her D. he has forgotten her name

71. ______ lives in India.

A. The doctor B. Grandmother C. Mrs Hunt D. Mr Hunt

E

A language never stands still. It is always changing and developing. These changes are rapid in primitive societies, but slow in advanced ones, because the invention of printing and the spread of education have fixed a traditional usage. The only important change that English has undergone since the first of the 16th century is a large increase

in its vocabulary. It is interesting to trace the different ways in which new words are invented. Let us take just two English words and see how they were made, sandwich and television.

Sandwich, which is now no longer an entirely English word, but also international, comes from the Earl of Sandwich (died in 1792) who invented the particular form of quick meal so that he could go on gambling all through the night without stopping for dinner. Many names of things are in fact taken from the name of the first inventors, for example, the electrical terms Watt and Volt.

Television is one of many new scientific words which are invented from old Greek and Latin words. “Tele” is Greek, meaning “far”, while “vision” comes from the Latin verb, meaning “to see”.

72.“Stand” in the first sentence means_____.

A. be in a certain condition B. not sit

C. remain without change D. rise to the feet

73. What do you think Volt was? He was ______.

A. a player B. a physicist C. a writer D. a nurse

74. The invention of sandwich has something to do with ______.

A. work B. study C. gambling D. journey

75. English has undergone an important change in its vocabulary for almost ____centuries.

A. five B. four C. three D. six
