ANew research shows that Earth will have more than nine thousand million people by two thousand fifty. The world population is at present about six point four thousand million.The research is from the Population Reference Bureau, a private group based in Washington. It says most growth will take place in developing countries in Africa and western Asia.India is expected to pass China as the world’s most populated nation. By the middle of the century, the report says, India will have over one and one-half thousand million citizens, an increase of fifty percent.China has one point three thousand million people at present. The Population Reference Bureau says the population should increase about ten percent by two thousand fifty.Most developed nations will see a drop in their populations. The only big exception is expected to be the United States. The report says the United States will remain the third biggest nation. The population is close to three hundred million now. It is expected to reach four hundred twenty million. The report says this will be because of immigration（移民）and low death rates among babies.Between now and two thousand fifty, Niger is expected to be the fastest growing country. The biggest decrease(下降) is expected in Bulgaria.The study is based on information from governments and the United Nations. Researcher Carl Haub wrote the report. He examined infant(婴儿) death rates, life expectancy, birth rates and the age structure of nations. The study also considered family planning use and, for the first time, rates of AIDS.Mister Haub says most growth will take place in countries with young populations and traditionally large families. He points to Nigeria and Japan as two nations that are moving in opposite directions in terms of population.31. The best title for the text is likely to be _____.A.

On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.The origin of Father's Day is not clear, but no matter when the first true Father's Day appeared, the strongest supporter of the holiday was Mrs. Bruce John Dodd of Spokane, Washington. She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon(布道) in 1909.Sonora wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, who was a Civil War soldier, was left alone when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart had to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a farm in eastern Washington state.After Sonora became an adult she realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. It was her father that made all the sacrifices (牺牲) and was a courageous, selfless, and loving man. In 1909, Mrs. Dodd gave her own minister and others in Spokane some advice about having a church service devoted to fathers, thus Father’s Day came into being. People celebrated the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. Children made special sweets, or visited their fathers if they lived apart. In early times, wearing flowers was a traditional way of celebrating Father’s Day. People wore red roses to honor a father still living, and wore white flowers to honor a dead dad.When children can't visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card. Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental(多愁善感的). Most greeting cards have strange shapes, so fathers laugh when they open them36. Who first raised the idea of Father’s DayA. SonoraB. SmartC. Smart’s wifeD. Sonora’s minister.37. How many brothers and sisters did Sonora have altogetherA. threeB. fourC. fiveD. six38. Smart was a _______ father while Sonora was a _______ daughter.A. selfless, considerateB. selfless, beautifulC. clever, diligentD. perfect, sentimental39. What was the traditional way of celebrating Father’s Day in early timesA. Visiting fathersB. Taking fathers out to dinnerC. Sending fathers greeting cardsD. Wearing flowers40. Most people send their fathers greeting cards of strange shapes to _______ them.A. relaxB. pleaseC. frightenD. surpriseCMost people say “yes” much more readily than “no”.A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was a couple of quiet days relaxing at home. Or a roommate spends the entire weekends playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for “reference”. But, you’ve just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard.Many peop le say “yes” to these kinds of requests. They tend not to consider t heir own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards .Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice, in fact, according to psychologists(心理学家) .“Everyone wants to be liked,” says Gabriele Steinki, a German psychologist. “Saying ‘no’ risks losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even a job.”The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this is regrettable . An yone should have the right to say “no”.In fact, rejecting a request can even help to strengthen a relationship because it expresses a true feeling.But, for people Used to agreeing to every request, changing can be a long and uncomfortable learning process.（过程）Most people believe that “If I say ‘no’, I'll lose the affection of the person. But the affection is important to me.” This wa y of thin king can be replaced by this: “If he only likes me because I always do what suits him , then the price of his affection is too high in the long term.”Steinki says the key is talking to the other person to find a mutual (相互的) solution. “One needs to present the situation from one’s own point of view, and to suggest how the situation can be dealt with to the advantage of both parties. The other person must have the feeling that his interests are being considered.”When the refusal is not accepted, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly again until the person gets the message .41. Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no” because ________.A. they don’t care about their own interests and feelings.B. they don’t know they will regret after wards.C. they have already been used to saying “yes.”D. they care more about others’ affection.42. In the opinion of experts, _________ .A. people need a lot of practice to say “no”.B. people should say “yes” to keep the peace.C. saying “no” means losing a job.D. people have the right to be liked.to the writer, what should you do if you want to refuse the other person’s requestA. Just say you can’t help him.B. Say sorry to him.C. Refuse him clearly.D. Talk to the other person to find a mutual way. to the writer, what should you do if your refusal is not acceptedA. Say yes to him.B. Repeat your reason for his acceptance.C. Just go away.D. Say no to him.45. What is the best title of the passageA. You Need Courage To Say “No”.B. “Yes” More Than “No”.C Anyone Has The Right To Say “No”. D. It’s Hard To Say “No”.DA good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he is a small child, and some children －like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents－seem to learn two languages almost as easily as one. In school it is not easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.Our mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we see but of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends. In the same way there is much work to be done before we can keep a picture forever （永远）in our mind.Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.46. We usually begin to learn our own language by _______ it.A. speakingB. hearingC. sayingD. teaching47. If you have a good ________, you’ll have less difficulty in learning something.A. teacherB. cameraC. memoryD. family48. The children who live abroad with their parents can learn two languages more easily because _________.A. they are very cleverB. they have good teachersC. they have more chances to use these languagesD. they have a better life49. _______ can take photos of what can be seen, felt, heard, smelt and tasted.A. A cameraB. MemoryC. A diaryD. A man’s mind50. Memory is ________ that we keep in our mind and carry about.A. the best diaryB. the best cameraC. a great helpD. a beautiful pictureEJason Queally is one the fastest menin the world on bicycle. But do youreally call the thing in the picture abicycle Well, yes. Jason’s human-powered (人力的) machine, with its two wheels, is, of course, a bicycle.Every year, a very important human-powered bicycle race is held in Nevada, USA. The speed of a bike is measured (测定) for only 200 metres, but players take more than a kilometer to get their bikes going fast. Jason Queally’s fastest speed for the 200-metre race was kilometres an hour.As this year’s race, Jason failed to reach the finishing line. He was speeding along at about seventy kilometers an hour when he began to lose control (控制) of his bike. When he tried to slow down, it began to smoke. Soon the inside of his bike was filled with smoke. He couldn’t see, and he couldn’t breathe. At seventy kilometers an hour, a crash (撞击) could be very serious. Jason was frightened, but he managed to stop the bike safely. He would repair his bicycle and try again another time to be the world’s fastest man on a bike. Better luck next time, Jason.Maybe you’re surprised that these bikes go so quickly, but is it useful It could be. Cars are becoming more and more popular, and they are very safe, comfortable and easy to drive, but they also pollute the air in our cities. Scientists and engineers are learning from fast racing bikes how to make human-powered vehicles (车辆) that might be useful for daily travel.51.
