Two truck drivers didn’t know each other when they arrived at the scene of a bad traffic accident on Kentucky’s mountain highway last June. Yet they worked together like long-time partners and saved two drivers from near certain death. For their bravery, Terry and Floyd have been named Goodyear North America Highway Heroes for 2003. The award was announced on Thursday at the Mid-America Trucking Show. Terry and Floyd were rewarded $20,000 with a free trip to Nashville.
On June 22, Terry and Floyd, driving trucks separately, came across an accident involving a jeep and a car on mountain parkway. The quick-thinking men broke the back window of the upside-down jeep, freed the driver from his seat belt, and dragged him to safety. But the driver of the car was made unable to move with a lot of weight on him inside the car, and the fire from the jeep was spreading dangerously close.
“The paint was melting(融化) on the car; it was so hot,” recalled Floyd.
Terry and Boyd fastened a nylon strap(带子) between Floyd’s truck and the car in an effort to pull it away from the burning jeep. The first two failed. On the third try, the strap held and Floyd pulled the car to safety. Soon afterward, the fire reached the jeep’s gas tank, creating a fireball that took in the area where the car had been located.
When rescue people arrived, Floyd, an experienced technician(技师), used the “Jaws-of-Life” to free the car driver.

In a traditional Chinese family, women are expected to do the housekeeping and leave the “other business” to men. However, the appearance of the full-time “househusband” is changing traditional family.
A survey in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen shows that 22 percent, 73 percent, 34 percent and 32 percent of white-collar male workers, aged between 28 and 33, would be prepared to do the housekeeping if the conditions were right.
Yang Wenhui, 32 years old, worked at the office of a company prefer to quit(离开) the job. “My job was dull and steady. I was not promoted(提拔). My wife, in contrast, really likes her job. So, after our baby was born, I chose to stay at home and take care of the family while my wife works full-time outside the home,” said Yang.
Sociologists have found the full-time househusband emerges in three main situations.
Firstly, if the wife is ambitious(有雄心的), well-paid and has good job prospects, while her husband is paid poorly and has no job prospects, it makes economic sense for the woman to become the main income earner for the household. Secondly, if the wife is tired of household chores and eager to work outside the home, her husband may forfeit his job. Thirdly, if the husband can do his work at home, he may take this choice as it allows him more time to take care of the family.
Influenced by traditional ideas, some families with full-time househusbands prefer others not to know about their arrangement, concerned people would laugh at a husband with “no prospects” or wife who is “too strong”.
Zhou Wei said he has become usual to being a full-time househusband although his relatives doubted this when they gathered during the holidays. “A happy life is the most important thing, not other peoples’ opinions,” added Zhou.
40. The reason for Yang Wenhui quitting his job is that ________.
A. it is too difficult for him to do it B. it is too boring for him to do it
C. he is too old to go on doing it D. his wife wanted him to quit it
41. In which situation is a man unlikely to become a full-time househusband?
A. He can earn enough money to keep family and has a good job prospects.
B. He can earn much less than his wife and will never get promoted.
C. His wife hates housework and is busy with her work outside.
D. His job can be done at home and he would like stay at home.
42. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. A full-time househusband is a man without prospects in life.
B. A full-time househusband is much weaker than his wife.
C. A full-time househusband is willing to share his experience with his relatives.
D. A full-time househusband can also enjoy happiness from housework.
43. The underlined word “forfeit” probably means ________.
A. appreciate B. quit C. continue D. escape
C

You are at the beach swimming with some friends. Everyone is having a good time． Suddenly you see some of your friends dragging a man out of the water. His heart is still beating, but he is not breathing. What should you do？What must you do in order to save his life？
In such a case，artificial respiration(人工呼吸) is necessary. An effective way of saving a person is the mouth-to-mouth method. Knowing how to perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation(复苏) quickly and properly can be critical as it can help you save a life.
First，lay the victim on his back. Check inside the mouth for any other objects. Second, by putting one hand on the forehead of the victim and one hand under the neck, push the head back so that the chin sticks up. Remember, if you notice a neck injury, use the jaw-thrust method-press up on the angle(角度) of the jaw(颚) just below the ears. This will move the tongue out of the back of the throat. Now, pinch (捏) the two holes at the end of the nose closed and then place your mouth over the victim’s mouth. Then, blow your air into his mouth. His chest should rise. Remember, remove your mouth to let the victim breathe out. Repeat this process twelve to fourteen times per minute.
48. An important step in artificial respiration is _______.
A. acting quickly and properly B. knowing how to swim

D. move the tongue ahead to let the air into his chest
51. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Deal with Swimming Dangers B. What to Do on the Beach

It could not have been easy to see the tiny swimmer, but a group of scientists claim to have discovered the world’s tiniest fish. The little creature was found recently in an Indonesian swamp(沼泽).
For now, the fish is known as Paedocypris progenetica. It has a transparent, or see-through, body. Its head doesn’t have a skeleton, leaving its brain vulnerable (脆弱的) to its surroundings. The fish, which is female(雌性的), can grow to be only 7.9 millimeters or (0.31 inches) long, about the size of a large mosquito.
Maurice Kottelat, a fish expert from Sweden, led the team of researchers that made the discovery. Kottelat and his team reported their discovery in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, a British scientific journal.
“You don’t wake up in the morning and think today we will find the smallest fish in the world,” said Kottelat in an interview. He and his team were most excited by the possibility of having discovered the world’s smallest vertebrate. “What’s important is finding a complete backbone in a body so small,” said Kottelat. All fish, reptiles(爬行动物), birds, and mammals (including humans) are vertebrates.
It wasn’t long after Kottelat’s announcement that another researcher challenged the claim with a discovery of his own. Fish expert Ted Pietsch, a researcher at the University of Washington, says that he has discovered a fish that is smaller than Kottelat’s discovery.
According to Pietsch, the male Photocorynus spiniceps is a tiny ocean fish measuring only about a quarter inch. That would actually make Pietsch’s fish the world’s smallest vertebrate. Kottelat’s would come in at a close second. When Pietsch got in touch with Kottelat to mention the fish, four of which he keeps in his office—Kottelat did not argue. He kindly gave the title of “world’s smallest vertebrate” over to Pietsch’s unique fish.
“So our little fish is only the smallest freshwater vertebrate,” Kottelat wrote. “Now I wait until the next smallest fish is discovered.”
52. Pietsch’s fish is shorter than Kottlelat’s by about _______.
A. 0.01 inches B. 0.06 inches C. 0.1 inches D. 0.31 inches
53. The underlined word “vertebrate” probably means “_______”.
A. a creature in an ocean B. a fish in fresh water
C. an animal that can swim D. an animal with a backbone
54. Which statement is TRUE according to the text?
A. Kottlelat’s fish still keeps the record of the smallest fresh water vertebrate so far.
B. Pietsch’s record of discovery of the world’s smallest fish was soon broken by others.
C. Kettlelat didn’t admit that pietsch’s fish was even smaller than his.
D. All fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and humans share the same ancestor.
55. Which question doesn’t seem to be answered so far according to the text?
A. Is fish a vertebrate animal?
B. What’s the world’s smallest fish indeed?
C. Is fish a good swimmer?
D. What size is Pietsch’s fish discovered recently?

My neighbor, a young man, named Zhang Ping hasn’t found a job yet up to now. Once, he was advised to learn computer and English, but he thought it was difficult to learn the computer and to remember the English words. As to science and technology in his mind, it was too difficult to understand. He only enjoys watching TV, playing cards, smoking and so on, which is hard for him to give up all these. Not long ago, he was seeking a position on the job market when he saw that people of talent are greatly needed, such as computer engineers, English interpreters and technicians, he regretted the time he wasted.
