Have you ever imagined your future? I try to do this all the time. Most of us will follow in
our   36   footsteps, by this I mean our adult lives will   37   resemble the lives we live as
children, set by our parents' examples. Have you ever   38   and thought about this? What an
awful job it must be to   39   a child properly! But, what happens to the children that live
   40   drugs, alcohol and violence in their childhood? Where can they find good examples for
themselves?
   I know of one place that is trying to   41   all children. It is the McDowell County DA.R.E. Program in McDowell County North Carolina, Our teachers carry on their shoulders the great   42   of teaching kids to just say NO to drugs and alcohol and violence. I am
personally acquainted with   43   of these things, not because I have ever   44   them myself,
but because of my dad. He drank,   45   drugs, smoked pot   When I was 7 my mom took me and my sister and   46   . I wonder if my dad ever thought about the   47   and what
this bad decision would lead to when he first started experimenting with drugs and pot at 13. He
has been in jail, he can't get a decent job, and he lost his   48   . These bad choices also caused
him to hurt his children in horrible ways.   ;
I am   49   that I have at least one parent to help me make wise decisions, and to teach me
right from wrong. I am also   50   that the D.A.R.E. program is taught in our schools. One of
the most   51   things I learned from DARE. is that a person that has a parent with an
addiction problem is more than twice as likely to become addicted themselves, as compared to a
person that has no family history of drug   52   . I have learned many things through this
   53   , especially about the consequences of our trying drugs. You could get arrested, hurt
yourself or someone else, 54   your life by becoming an addict, or even die. All of these
things are terrible, but I can't think of anything   55   as a parent than hurting our children and
the people that love us. DRUGS DESTROY LIVES! I give the DA.R.E. Program two thumbs up, for all the good things being accomplished.

Many children, especially in Africa, still do not get enough food. But experts say progress is being made in reducing world hunger. Now, however, the experts are worried about quite a Afferent problem. As many nations are gaining wealth, more and more children are getting obese (肥胖的), that is, they are getting too much weight. They are eating too much and not Setting enough exercise.

Researchers collected information from the U.S., Russia, China, Brazil and South Africa. The researchers examined a number of children between six and eight years old who were obese, Generally, people are considered obese if they weigh at least 20 percent more than they should or their height and weight. In the United States, 24 percent of the girls aged 6 to 8 are obese. So are 21 percent of the boys in this age group. The researchers found 25 percent of the Russian boys were obese between the ages of 6 and 8 compared to 18 percent of the girls. In South Africa, bout 24 percent of the boys were obese, compared with 21 percent of the girls. In China, 14 percent of boys and 12 percent of gills were obese; And in Brazil 13 percent of boys and 11 percent of girls were obese.

The reasons why children are getting too much weight are as follows: Some children spend too much time sitting watching TV. Some are not active because of the pressure to study and many are eating richer, higher fat food instead of grains and vegetables. The study also shows that some children are more likely to become obese if they didn’t have enough food as babies. Children can grow up to become overweight. Obesity can cause heart problem and other disorders. And these problems are of great effect on more children as well as grown-ups.

Since opening in February 2010, the new high speed railway linking the two central Chinese cities of Xi'an and Zhengzhou has not only cut travel time much shorter, it's also made taking the train a more pleasant experience than it used to be.

The new route cuts through an area of central China estimated to be home to around 100 million people. Huashan Station is one of the stops along the way The spacious^® $3) new building employs cutting edge technology and design to make the experience of traveling a joy, rather than a pain. Passengers here seem more than content at this new style of travel.

One of the passengers said, "I used to always take the plane, but after the high-speed railway opened, I now usually go by train. I’ve traveled on high-speed trains in other countries, but I think the facilities of Chinese trains are better and faster than those abroad."

Stepping onboard one of China's new high speed trains, you could be forgiven for thinking you had just entered an aircraft. The inside of the train is new, clean, spacious and very thoughtfully designed.

The train journey is so smooth it's difficult to imagine that you are traveling at over 300km per hour. What makes the journey even more comfortable is the service. Si Wen is a stewardess working on the Xi-an - Zhengzhou line. She says customer satisfaction is one of the main goals of her job.

"The comfort of foreign tourists, senior citizens, children and the disabled is a top priority for us. Our employees are required to be on duty during the whole trip. If anyone needs help, we can offer a hand immediately Of course, if they don't, we won't bother American-Chinese movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and take home spring rolls from one of the many Chinese restaurants in town.

The Xi'an - Zhengzhou line has not come cheap costing over 5 billion dollars. But it has proved so popular, flights between the two cities have now stopped because they are no longer emit about

commercially competitive. This is great news for the environment because high speed trains three times less carbon dioxide than airplanes. Soon a network of similar trains will cross the length and breadth of China. By 2012 it is expected to be possible to travel from Beijing to most major Chinese cities in less than eight hours.
60. Which of die following is the most likely to be the title for the news story?
A.   Trams Oct Faster and More Comfortable
B.   Modem Trains Get Faster Than Ever
C.   High-speed trains Reach Over 300km Per Hour
D.   High-speed Trains Take the Place of Airplanes
61 The underlined words "cutting edge" in the second paragraph most probably mean
A. metal cutting   B. very sharp'
C. most advanced   D. well-developed
62.   Why have flights between Xi'an and Zhengzfaou stopped?
A.   Because airplanes emit mote carbon dioxide than trains.
B.   Because airplanes an less comfortable than high-speed trains.
C.   Because the airlines profit less from running the flights.
D.   Because it is more convenient to travel by train than by plane.
63.   According to the passage, a passenger can enjoy all the convenience the high-speed train provides EXCEPT '
A. comfortable chairs   B. a much lower price
C. excellent service   D. reduction of travel time
                                            C         

The so-called Americanization phenomenon seems to be more a consequence of the recent globalization in our world. If we find American products worldwide, it is also increasingly common to find Asian products in the United States.

Going to any country in Asia nowadays, we are going to see many of the American icons everywhere. A few years ago when I was in Ho-Chi-Min City, formerly Saigon, I was completely surprised at the number of billboards advertising products from multinational companies, many of them American. It is unforgettable for me — the vision of the eye-catching coca cola billboard

 on a Ho Chi-Min street。

Living in the United States now, I am discovering many Asian products in America, from

food to movies, in one day in San Francisco, or Seattle, or Houston, we can buy Sisheido cosmetics (化妆品) from Japan at the Galleria Mall, have sushi(寿司)                                          and sashimi（生鱼片） in

one of the many Japanese restaurants in the city, go to the cinema and enjoy the beautiful American-Chinese movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and take home spring rolls from one of the many Chinese restaurants in town.

I know that many people would like to hold back the globalization process in the world because they think they are losing their own culture, but it is very difficult to stop this process. We can only try to be critical and choose what is better for us to have or to buy.

However, many people think that young people are not free to choose when they are constantly exposed to attractive advertisements which are specially made to capture the youth market. Peaceful protests ( 抗议 )could be arranged just to help people to think about the situation, but the tendency in our world is to want globalization but not like where the different products come from.                             

64.   The article mainly talks about______ .

A. the impact of globalization              B. the Americanization phenomenon

C. the impact of Asia on the United States

D. the popularity of American products in Asian countries

65. Which of the following impressed the author of the passage most?

A. Sisheido cosmetics from Japan,

B. Chinese and Japanese foods in American cities.

C. The beautiful American-Chinese movie.

D. The attractive advertisement for an American product,

66. One of the consequences of the globalization is that people are worried about           .

A. the loss of their own culture                           B. the quality of Asian products

C. the spread 6f American culture                       D. the freedom to choose products

67.   What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. The recent globalization is a natural consequence of Americanization.

B. Fantastic advertisements may do harm rather than good to young people.

C. People care too much about cultural differences in the process of globalization.

D. All of us should make every effort to hold back the process of globalization,
