Everyone who has eaten instant noodles (方便面) before knows how it looks like. It is very easy to cook it instantly by putting the noodles into the boiling water and add in those MSG（味精） packets（小包）, together with your other food like eggs or vegetables. However, have you ever wondered whether this is the correct way of cooking it? When you first took out the noodles from the packaging, you will notice that the noodles are joined together nicely as a piece. In order to make the noodles joined together nicely side by side it needs some form of wax coating (石蜡涂层) in order to show an attractive instant noodles in front of us. Many people who enjoy eating instant noodles frequently do not really think too much of it as it seems very normal to everyone to have it nicely shown in front of us. However, researches have shown that the layer (层) of wax coating on the noodles is quite harmful to our body and we should not eat it too frequently. It is advisable to have a break of 2-3 days before we start to eat another packet of instant noodles as our body need about 3 days to clear that layer of wax coating away from our body system. Do you know the danger of having too much wax coating stored in our stomach? It will lead to CANCER if it is stored in our body system for a long period of time.
There are 2 key points to take note while preparing instant noodles:　
1) Wash the instant noodles with warm water first, stir（搅和） it and pour away the water containing the wax coating.

A city bus driver was praised as a hero after he jumped off his bus and snatched a 3-year-old girl from traffic. The bus security cameras showed the girl getting off the bus with a cheery “Bye!” and walking straight into traffic on a busy street. Chris Leslie, 38, is pictured running out the door after her. One view from the bus cameras showed a car making a rapid stop directly in front of Leslie and the girl last week.
“As I grabbed her, I looked as I pulled her back and luckily the car in the next lane had stopped,” he said. “It was probably the first time in my life I was in the right place at the right time.” The girl’s mother was busy in the bus with another child in a stroller (折叠式婴儿车) and the toddler didn’t hear a command to wait. Leslie said the mother and the daughter were still hugging at the bus stop when he pulled away.
Leslie’s wife, Cara, said she knew something had happened when her husband returned home from work that night. She said he immediately grabbed their 2-year-old daughter, Hannah, and gave her a long hug. “He was really scared by it all,” she said. “It’s pretty special,” said general manager of City Utilities, John Twitty. “He put his own life on the line.”
Leslie, an eight-year CU veteran, earned the Driver of the Year award last year. His boss, transit manager Carol Cruise, said the utility’s rules won’t allow him to win it two years in a row (连续两年). “But there’s no reason he couldn’t win it the year after that.”

A. people should take good care of their babies in the bus
B. a lucky driver won the Driver of the Year award
C. children should obey their parents in the public
D. a bus driver jumped off a bus to save a girl

A. the girl’s mother B. the bus driver
C. the child in the stroller D. the 3-year-old girl

A. husband and wife B. father and daughter
C. boss and worker D. driver and passenger
63. When the girl got off the bus with a cheery “Bye!” her mother ____.
A. was busy repairing the stroller in the bus
B. was chatting with another passenger
C. was taking care of another child[来源:Z.X.X.K]

It is commonly believed that most people go to work to make money. However, it has been said that today people earn money to go to work. The difference between making money and going to work suggested by this is important.
Would you give up your job if you had a lot of money ? In a 2010 poll(民意测验) conducted by the Gallup Organization, quite a few people conducted among said they would do so, but researchers find that work is one of life’s main satisfactions for many people.
Take Liu Yan, 23, a former teacher, for example, before she quit her job in 2010, she taught at a high school. Although the salary was of the ordinary, she liked her job and worked so successfully that in only one year’s time after her graduation from college. She not only won a prize for excellence in teaching, but also enjoyed wide popularity among her students. In her second teaching year, however, she met a millionaire and got married; and went to live in Hong Kong with her husband. There she led a very comfortable and easy life, spending most of her days doing shopping and going traveling. After one year of endless vacation, though, she began to miss her work and asked for return to her teaching position. “I’m so tired of this kind of life,” she explained in her letter to the school she had previously worked for, “that I miss more than ever the days with my students.”
So what do you think of it? Which is more important: work or money?
One more question, if there are two jobs, the one offers good salary with little challenge, just like work in the government department; the other, a lot of challenge but low salary, what’s your choice?
68. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Work is more important than money.
B. Money is more important than work.
C. With the development of society, more people work not only for money.
D. It is difficult to say whether money or work is more important.
69. The example of Liu Yan suggests_________.
A. work is one of life’s main satisfactions
B. one would give up his job if he or she had a lot of money
C. money is more important than work
D. one can’t go without money
70.What does the underlined word “quit” mean?
A. began B. found C.appreciateD. gave up

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? __71__ . Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. _ _72. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
_73 __ . A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. _74 _ . A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀) than any other bridge in the area---until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
_75 __ . It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
A. On the other hand, black is depressing.
B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up --- we are born with our preference.
C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.
D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colours do influence our moods---there is no doubt about it

答案
Dear John,
The Middle-Autumn Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals, which is often held in September or October. During the festival, family members get united and have mooncakes together. There are various kinds of mooncakes, such as bean paste, egg-yolk or meat. The shape of a mooncake is round as it symbolizes a big moon. Moreover, in the evening of the Middle-Autumn Festival, people get together in a vacant place, eating delicious mooncakes while appreciating the beautiful moon hanging in the dark sky. On that day，the moon kooks brighter and rounder. We call this moon the full moon.
