Water goes around and around Earth in a never ending journey
called the water cycle（循环）. The sun heats up lakes, oceans, and
other wet places on Earth. When the water gets warm enough, it
changes into vapour. Plants also give off lots of water vapour.
Some of this water vapour cools off high in the sky and becomes
clouds. Then it falls back to Earth in a new place as rain or snow.
This cycle happens over and over again.
The ground can absorb water like a sponge (海绵). If you could see
this groundwater, it wouldn’t look like a lake or river. The
groundwater is mixed in with the rocks and sand that lie in
layers(层) below Earth’s surface.
Groundwater moves along slowly. How slowly? Maybe 1.5 kilometres in
one century. Some of this water has been underground for thousands
of years. And once groundwater is pumped out of the ground from a
deep well（井） by people, it may take hundreds of years for another
water to take its place.
35.In which order does water go around Earth?
&& a .Fall down as rain or
b. Heated up by the sun on lakes, oceans and other wet

clouds.&&&&

Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives．For
example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by
satellite．Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of
the Earth to show how clouds are moving．Satellites are also used to
connect our international phone calls．
Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use
satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through
satellites．Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help
them find their exact location．
We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of
the world to another．They are usually 35，880 kilometers above the
equator．Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to
stay in the same place．This is because it is moving
around the world at 11，000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same
speed that the earth rotates．A satellite must orbit the Earth with
its antennae(天线)facing the earth．Sometimes, it moves away from its
orbit，So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the
satellite back in the right position．This usually happens about
every five or six days．
Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are
sent into space to orbit the Earth．A satellite usually works for
about 10-12 years．Satellites which are broken are sometimes
repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be
repaired．Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to
orbit the Earth for a very long time．This is very serious because
some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each
1．Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to
the passage?
A．Sending information for weather forecast．

A．35,880 kilometers per
hour．&&&&
B．335,880 kilometers per hour．
C．11,000 kilometers per
&&D．110,000 kilometers per
3．Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed
as the Earth rotates?
A．In order to take photographs．
B．In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit．
C．In order to move away from its orbit．
D．In order to send television pictures．
4．What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd
paragraph refer to?
A．A satellite．&& B．A little
C．A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky．

Earth to be repaired．
C．A broken satellite is never left in space．
D．They often crash into each other．

Cancer researchers urged people on Wednesday to take more
vitamin D to lower risk of cancer, saying studies showed a clear
link. “Our suggestion is for people to increase their intake
(吸入，摄入), through diet or a vitamin supplement,” Dr. Cedric Garland
said in a telephone interview.
Garland's research team reviewed 63 studies, including several
large long-term ones, on the relationship between vitamin D and
certain types of cancer worldwide between 1966 and 2004. “There's
nothing that has this ability to prevent cancer,” he said, urging
governments and public health officials to do more to fortify (增强)
foods with vitamin D. Garland is part of a University of California
at San Diego Moores Cancer Center team that published its findings
this week online in the American Journal of Public Health. Vitamin
D is found in milk, as well as in some fortified orange juice,
yogurt and cheeses, usually at around 100 international units（IU）a
serving. “People might want to consider a vitamin supplement to
raise their intake to 1000 IUs per day” Garland said, adding that
it was well within the safety guidelines established by the
National Academy of Sciences.
The authors said that taking more vitamin D could be especially
important for people living in northern areas, which receive less
vitamin D from sunshine.
“African Americans, who don't produce as much of the vitamin
because of their skin colour, could also benefit significantly from
a higher intake,” the authors said.

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass
and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing.
Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished.
For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is
new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a
young cow or ox whose horns(角) had not yet developed. A century
later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience
in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning
it has today—a person who is new in a job.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have
a green thumb. The expression comes from early nineteen hundreds. A
person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes
plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next
door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after
your plants have died. w_w w. k#s5_u.c o*m
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the
development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants
produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of
hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.

Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling,
jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature
from outer space. It is an expression used about four hundred years
ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”. It
describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has
something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed
monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or,
that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay
rise and he does not.

People with disabilities make up a large part of the population.
It is estimated that over 35 million Americans have physical,
mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities are
“developmental", i.e., they occur before the individual's
twenty-second birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are
severe enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as
mobility, communication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities
are considered “adventitious", i.e., accidental or caused by
outside forces.
Prior to the 20th century, only a small percentage of people
with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these
disabilities was unavailable. Advancements in medicine and social
services have created a climate in which people with disabilities
can expect to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical
treatment. Unfortunately, these basics are often not available.
Civil liberties such as the right to vote, marry, get an education,
and gain employment have historically been denied on the basis of
disability.
In recent decades, the disability rights movement has been
organized to fight against these infringements（违反；侵犯）of civil
rights. Congress responded by passing major legislation recognizing
people with disabilities as a protected class under civil rights
Still today, people with disabilities must fight to live their
lives independently. It is estimated that more than half of
qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed, and a
majority of those who do work are underemployed. About two-thirds
live at or below the official poverty level.
Significant barriers, especially in transportation and public
awareness, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For
example, while no longer prohibited by law from marrying, a person
with no access to transportation is effectively excluded from
community and social activities which might lead to the development
of long-term relationships.
Only when public attitudes advance as far as laws have will
disabled people be fully able to take their rightful place in
1. A “developmental" disability ______.
A. develops very slowly over time
B. is caused by forces
C. occurs in youth and affects development
D. is getting more and more severe
2．Most disabled people used to die early because ______.
A. disabilities destroyed major bodily functions
B. they were not very well looked after
C. medical techniques were not available
D. they were too poor to get proper treatment
3. In the author's opinion, to enable the disabled people to
take their rightful place in society, ______.
A．more laws should be passed
B．public attitudes should be changed
C．government should provide more aids
D．more public facilities should be set up
4. Which of the following cannot be inferred（推断）from the passage
A．Many disabled people may remain single for their whole
B．The public tends to look down upon the disabled people.
C．The disabled people feel inferior to those surrounding
D． Discriminatory laws prevent the disabled from mixing with
5. The best title for this passage might be ______.
A．Handicaps（不利条件；障碍；）of People with Disabilities
B．The physical difficulties of the Disabled
C．The Causes for Disabilities
D．Medical Treatments for Disabilities
