Jimmys sister Betty答案：ABScientists have searched for many years for a method to tell whethera volcano(火山)explosion will be small or large. Now，four scientists saythey have discovered something in lava(熔岩)that will help dothis. They did the research on Mount Unzen on the southern Japanese island ofKyushu.Mount Unzen exploded in November，1990. Since then，moreexplosions have killed 43 people and destroyed the homes of more than 2，000 others.The volcano is still active today.The scientists say the lava of the volcano contains high level of anelement(成份)，which is a sign of the presence of the lava from deep in the earth，not from thesurface. They say it shows that the lava coming directly from inside the earthis connected with huge explosions instead of smaller ones.The scientists examined the lava from 18 explosions of Mount Unzenthat took place during many thousands of years. They also studied the lava fromother volcanoes in the area that are older than Mount Unzen. The lava studiedcame from both large and small explosions. The scientists found that largeexplosions contained more of the element than small ones. The scientists say ifthey had known this two years earlier，they could havewarned the people living in the area near Mount Unzen and saved many lives.( )55. From the passage we learn that Mount Unzen is the name of_.A.a huge volcano explosionB.a Japanese islandC.an active volcanoD.a kind of lava答案：C( )56.The four scientists discovered that the level of the elementcontained in the lava could tell _.A.the degree of a volcano explosionB.the place of a possible explosionC.the number of volcano explosionsD.the time of a possible explosion答案：A( )57.

We often believe were more skillful in getting ourpoint across than we actually are，according to Boza Keysar，a professor at theUniversity of Chicago. In his recent study，speakers tried toexpress their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listenersunderstood were wrong nearly half the time. Heres some good adviceto reduce misunderstanding：(1)Dont trust what you see from the listener. Listeners often nod，look at youor say“uhhuh”to be polite or move the conversation along. But its easy toconsider these as signs of understanding.(2)Train the editor(编辑)in your head. If you say，“Beth discusses herproblems with her husband，”its not clear whether shes talking to herhusband or about him. Try instead，“Beth talks to her husband about her problems.”or“Beth talksto others about the problems with her husband.”(3)Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request bysaying“I want to be sure I said that right.”Questions like“How doesthat sound?”or“Does that make sense?”may also work.(4)Listen well. When on the receiving end，askquestions to be sure youre on the same page. After all，it isnt just thespeakers job to make his speech understood.( )58.Why does the writer give us the advice?A.Were not skillful enough to make clear sentenceB.Misunderstanding is damaging our normal liveC.Misunderstanding occurs now and theD.Its impolite to say NO to other答案：C( )59 The writer suggests that when talking to others,the speakershould _.A.know that listeners will show him that they understand his wordsB.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of understandingC.notice listeners signs of understandingD.look directly into his listeners eyes答案：B( )60. By Train the editor in your head,the speakers are advised_.A.to get themselves trained by a good editorB.to discuss problems with their husbands or wivesC.to express themselves in long but simple sentencesD.to make sure each sentence has only one meaning答案：D( )61 In the last paragraph,the words youre on the same page meanthat _.A.youre following the speakers closelyB.youre reading the same page as the speaker doesC.you should know which page the speaker refers toD.your story is written on the same page as the speakers答案：ADWhile acting may run in the family,it wasnt Angelina Jolies onlychoice when thinking about her future. Although Jolie has studied her craft(技艺)sincechildhood,at one point the 26-year-old,who stars this month in Tomb Raider withher father,actor John Voight,wanted to be a funeral(殡葬)director.“I thoughtthat the crossing over could be a beautiful thing and a time of comfort whenpeople could reach out to each other.”Tradition(传统)is always attractive and interesting to Jolie,who moved with hermother,Marcheline Bertand,and brother after her parents separated when she wastwo.“I never had one home.
