The Smog(烟雾)
For over a month,Indonesia was in crisis.Forest fires raged out of control as the country suffered its worst drought for 50 years.Smoke from the fires mixed with sunlight and hot dry air to form a cloud of smog.This pollution quickly spread and within days it was hanging over neighbouring countries including Malaysia,Singapore and Thailand.
When the smoke combined with pollution from factories and cars,it soon became poisonous(有毒旳).Dangerous amounts of CO became trapped under the smog and pollution levels rose.People wheezed(喘息)and coughed as they left the house and their eyes watered immediately.
The smog made it impossible to see across streets and whole cities disappeared as grey soot(烟灰)covered everything.In some areas,water was hosed(用胶管浇)from high-rise city buildings to try and break up the smog
Finally, heavy rains, which came came in November. Put out the fires and clear the air . But the environmental costs and health problems will remain Many people from South—Eastern Asian cities already suffer from breathing huge amounts of Car exhaust fumes(汽车排放旳废气)and factory pollution Breathing problems could well increase and many non—sufferers may have difficulties for the first time.Wildlife has suffered too.In lowland forests,elephants,deer, and tigers have been driven out of their homes by smog.
But smog is not just an Asian problem. In fact .was world was first used in London in 1905 to describe the mixture of smoke and thick fog.Fog often hung over the capital.Sometimes the smog was SO thick and poisonous that people were killed by breathing problems or in accidents.
About 4,000 Londoners died within five days as a result of thick smog in 1952.

A Star Is Born
1 The VLT(Very Large Telescope)is the world’s largest telescope(望远镜)and is taking astronomers(72文学家)further back to the Big Bang than they ever thought possible.Located 2,600 metres up io the Chilean Andes,it has four huge mirrors,each about the size of a London bus.The VLT is SO powerful it Can spot a burning match 10.000 kilometres away.
2 This astonishing power will allow astronomers to see events in space from the birth of stars to the collision(碰撞)of galaxies(星系)on the edge of the cosmos(宇宙).The VLT is giving astronomers their best-ever view of the cosmos.The power of the VLT to see the smallest detail at the furthest distances makes its designers amazed.
3 Take the case of Eta Carinae,one of the most explosive stars in the universe.This star produces ultraviolet laser rays(紫外线)and it will destroy itself in a few million years’time.It is five times brighter than the sun and when it explodes it is going to be a sight worth waiting for 1
4 But it is at distances of millions,even billions,of light years that the VLT really shows its power.The VLT can detect light that set out on its journey before the earth even existed.This gives astronomers their first—ever detailed views of events that took place in the earliest days of the cosmos.
5 In other words.the VLT is a kind of a time machine.It takes astronomers back to a time when complete galaxies crashed into each other.The effects of these past collisions Can now be seen by scientists,and astronomers believe the telescope will reveal more about these exciting events in the years to come.One day, we might be able to say we have traveled back to the beginning of time,and we will have a much clearer picture of how our planet was born.

第4部分:阅读理解(第31-45题,每题3分,共4 5分)
下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题,每道题背面有4个选项。请根据文章旳内容从每题所给旳4个选项中选择1个最佳答案,涂在答题卡对应旳位置上。
第一篇 Pushbike Danger
Low speed bicycle crashes can badly injure——or even kill——children if they fall onto the ends of the handlebars(车把).So a team of engineers is redesigning it to make it safer
Kristy Arbogast,a bioengineer at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania, began the project with her colleagues.The cases they reviewed about serious abdominal(腹部旳) injuries in children in the past 30 years showed that more than a third were caused by bicycle accidents.”The task was to identify how the injuries occurred and come up with seine countermeasures,”she says
By interviewing the children and their parents,Arbogast and her team were able to
reconstruct many of the accidents and identified a common cause for serious injuries They discovered that most cases occur when children hit an obstacle at slow speed,causing them to topple f摇摆)over.To maintain their balance the children turn the handlebars through 90 degrees—but their momentum(冲力)forces them into the end of the handlebars.The bike then falls over and the other end of the handlebars hits the ground,pushing it in to their abdomen(腹部).
The solution the group came up with is a handgrip (握柄)fitted with a spring and damping(减速)system. The spring absorbs up to 50 per cent of the forces transmitted(传递)through the handlebars in all impact.The group hopes to commercialize the device,which should add only a few dollars to t}le cost of a bike.“But our task has been one of education because up until now.bicycle manufacturers were unaware of the problem,”says Arbogast.
31 The engineers are trying to improve the handlebars because
A they are not beautiful
B they may kill children
C they are likely to crash.
D they affect the speed of the bike
32 How many abdominal injuries in children were caused by bicycle accidents?
A Thirty.
B Ninety.
C 50 percent.
D More than a third.
33 The world “countermeasures” in paragraph 2 means
A “problems”
B “approaches”
C “solutions”.
D ‘‘actions”
34 Paragraph 3 mainly discusses
A why the children and their parents were interviewed
B how serious abdominal injuries occur.
C when the children turn the handlebars
D what stops bicycle accidents
35 The advantage of the new handgrip is that
A it can be made cheaply.
B it reduces the impact in bicycle accidents.
C it helps to slow down the speed of the bicycle.
D it sells well at bicycle shops.
第二篇 Saving Money

If you are saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip,where would you save your money?
One place to save money is the bank Putting your money in a savings account will help your money early more money If you put your money in a piggy bank(猪形储蓄罐),one year later you’11 still have the same amount of money you put in.If you put your money in a savings account,one year later, you’ll have more money than you put in Why?
