As a youngster, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to tidy living rooms that seemed to whisper, “Not to be touched!”

　　I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never approve. The walls were old；some stones were missing, others loose and falling. Still, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.

　　“I, uh—I wanna climb the stone walls, ”I said. Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stone walls?” Immediately voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too disappointed；the response was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute, ”I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself. ”

　　“Go, ”he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back. ”For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls—and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures（冒险）. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred, ”he said, smiling, “You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are. ”

　　Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same：my message to children at the end of almost every visit. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you, ”the kids can count on hearing me say, “and people can like you exactly as you are.”

S. H. E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true? Cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die – hard （铁 的）S. H. E. fan.

After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S. H. E.’ s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.

The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers’ English names.

Last week S. H. E. announced they will perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.

At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.

“I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don’t understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show,” said Peng about the Shanghai performance.

It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have thrilled (make sb. excited) audiences. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.

When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. “We had never met before, and we didn’t talk at all at the beginning,” recalled Ella.

When asked about the secret of their success, she said, “Our average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girl next door, your singing sisters.”

“It’s really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols. Nothing but magical,” she said.

64．What makes Peng Weiye, a senior 2 girl, so excited?

A．She is the one who will be met by S. H. E.

B．S. H. E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.

C．Her parents bought her a ticket for S. H. E.’s Shanghai show.

D．S. H. E. will perform on the annual CCTV Spring Festival Evening.

65．How did the Taiwanese band get the name?

A．Their fans gave the name to them.

B．Their idols had a deep influence on them.

C．A singing contest gave their idea of the band name.

D．The first letter of each of the singers’ English names.

66．What do you know about Peng Weiye?

A．She stayed outside the Hongkou Stadium to listen to S. H. E.

B．She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.

C．She pays close attention to everything about S. H. E.

D．She appreciates that her parents understood her well.

67．Which is true about S. H. E.?

B．They have well prepared to perform with their idols.

C．They were close friends when they entered a singing contest.

D．Their secret to success is the pretty faces and expensive clothes.

You might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in the world’s temperature But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nation—the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.

During the 20th century, sea level rose 8—12 inches. As a result .Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the country’s drinking water.

Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official ,reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damagingstorms.

Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）,which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement ,the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years,” Laupepa told the BBC.

Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries .

Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable （易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives ,told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.

68．The text is mainly about .

A．rapid changes in earth’s temperature B．bad effects of global warming

C．moving of a country to a new place D．reasons for lowland flooding

69．According to scientists ,the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is .

A．greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nations

B．higher surface water temperatures of the sea

C．continuous global warming D．rising sea levels

70．Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not .

A．agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions B．sign an agreement with Tuvalu

C．allow Tuvaluans to move to the US D．believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real

71．The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is .

A．Australia B．New Zealand C．the Maldives D．the United States

As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.

Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”

The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”

72．Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ____________.

A．they are busy serving food to their children

B．they are busy keeping order at the dinner table

C．they have to pay more attention to younger children

D．they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family

73．By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children _________.

A．have to help their parents to serve dinner　　B．get the least attention from the family

C．are often kept away from the dinner table　 D．find it hard to keep up with other children

74．Lewis’ research provides an answer to the question _________.

A．why TV is important in family life

B．why parents should keep good order

C．why children in small families seem to be quieter

D．why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life

75．Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?

A．It is important to have the right food for children.

B．It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.

C．Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.

D．Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner
