After 10 years in the spotlight, country-music star Carrie Underwood is still enjoying herself, still growing and still staying true to (1)????????she is. But these personal accomplishments are not easy, even when you're living a dream come true.

Growing up in small-town Oklahoma, Underwood currently (2)????????(live) a life that is many miles removed from her childhood, literally and figuratively(象征性地）.She grew up comfortably on a cattle farm, but her interest in performing was clear from the beginning as she sang in church and talent shows. Proving to be a more than competent singer, she was offered a record deal at 14, though it fell through.

Underwood's proper music career began with her audition on the TV singing competition American Idol at age 21 in 2005. After impressing the judges, Underwood competed in Hollywood. Show producer Simon Cowell made a prediction, "Not only (3)????????you win this show, you will sell more records than any other previous Idol winner. "Indeed, Underwood did win that year's competition and has managed to outsell even Idol winner Kelly Clarkson.

After winning American Idol, Underwood debuted(首發(fā))the album Some Hearts, (4)????????was a great success, now seven times platinum(白金).She has released four other albums, (5)????????(recently) Hits: Decade #1, (6)???????(imply) she's far from finished, though she's not interested in stepping on familiar ground. "1 don't want to make the same album over and over again ... Then I've gotta decide which version am I gonna be tonight.---country Carrie or Pon Carrie? I'd rather just make country music that anybody can get into ?

(7)????????????????????????they listen to."

(8)????????Underwood continues to grow her fan base (Australia and the U.K. have become significant followers), she knows her situation is rare. "... If I hadn't made my place in country ?music via American Idol, I probably could have tried to make (9)????????for the rest of my life and never made any progress," she says. Country singer Brad Paisley has also heard her (10)???????(express) that she feels she is a star for no reason, that others are annoyed about her smooth success. "I told her she was one of the greatest gifts we have been given in Nashville," says Paisley.

In 1976, the (1)????????of a US Navy boat near Hawaii witnessed something truly amazing.

Since this discovery, only thirty-six more mega-mouth sharks have been (5)???????. This is one of the newest species of fish to be discovered, and many things about it are still a mystery.

When we think of sharks, usually we think of predators like great whites. Great whites, at 3.7 meters in length, are the most feared animals in the sea, (6)????????on small whales, seals, other sharks and sometimes even people. They demonstrate incredible power and speed when hunting. However, not all sharks are dangerous.

(7)???????, there are actually more than 360 species of shark, from the whale shark which can reach 14 meters in length, to a much smaller shark which (8)????????only 21 centimeters from head to tail.

Despite their difference, all sharks do have some things in common. For example, sharks do not have bones, but have flexible cartilage (軟骨) instead which makes them very good swimmers. (9)???????, unlike most fish, many species of shark batch their eggs inside their bodies, giving birth to (10)????????baby sharks. While scientists have learnt a lot in recent years, there are still many things about both sharks and the deep blue sea which we do not understand. Who knows? There may be many other species of marine life even stranger than the mega-mouth, still unknown and waiting to be discovered.

(A)

The glass window shook and Matthew placed a hand roughly through the opening to lift the latch(插銷(xiāo)) slowly. He then climbed into the room, landing on his feet with a soft step. A sudden rush of cold air swept into the room after him. Matthew trembled and he quickly tightened his clothes. Glancing down, he saw the deep cut on the back of his hand. Sighing over his rotten luck, he tore off a piece of cloth from his coat sleeve and bandaged it. With his heart beating fast, he inched his way forward, hardly able to see anything in front of him.

“Mmmm…, ”came the muffled sound. Was it just his imagination? Ignoring the thought, he began to move slowly forward again. Then, without any warning, the next thing he knew was that he had kicked something soft. Matthew took out his torch. Switching it on, he found a pair of round eyes staring at him. They belonged to a little girl! Cloth in mouth, she had been bound so tightly that movement was strictly out of the question. As was about to turn away, her tear-streaked face stopped him. Feeling sorry for the girl Matthew used his pocket knife to cut her loose.

?The girl started to cry as she believed Matthew to be the rescuer who was there to end her ordeal (折磨). She leaned on Matthew tightly. This confused him further. What was he to do? After a few seconds, Matthew spoke in a gentle voice.

?“What happened, little girl?”

From her mumbled reply, Matthew could only make out that the girl had been there for two days without food and water. It seemed that her captors had totally neglected her. Almost immediately, Matthew carried the little girl back to the window from which he had entered. As he climbed out with the girl, Matthew smiled and whispered under his breath, “I can't believe what I've just done. Neither will the police.”

   Although websites such as Facebook and MySpace experienced rapid growth during the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, some users remain unaware of the fact that the information they post online can come back to haunt them. First, employers can monitor employees who maintain a blog, photo diary, or website. Employers can look for controversial(引起爭(zhēng)議的) employee opinions, sensitive information disclosures, or wildly inappropriate conduct. For example, a North Carolina newspaper fired one of its features writers after she created a blog on which she wrote about the strange things of her job and coworkers without signing her real name.

   The second unintended use of information from social networking websites is employers who check on prospective employees. A June 11, 2006 New York Times article reported that many companies use search engines and social networking websites such as MySpace, Xanga, and Facebook to conduct background checks on college campuses. Although the use of MySpace or Google to check a student’s background is somewhat unsettling to many undergraduates, the Times noted that the use of Facebook is especially shocking to students who believe that Facebook is limited to current students and recent alum(校友).

   Corporate employers are not the only people interested in college students’ lives. The third unintended use of social networking websites is college administrators who monitor the Internet — especially Facebook — for student bad behavior. For example, a college in Boston’s Back Bay expelled (除名) its student Government Association President for joining a Facebook group highly critical of a campus police sergeant. In addition, fifteen students at a state university in North Carolina faced charges in court for underage drinking because of photos that appeared on Facebook.

Although more users of websites such as Facebook are becoming aware of the potential dangers of online identities, many regular users still fail to take there basic security precautions(警惕). First, only make your information available to a specific list of individuals whom you approve. Second，regularly search for potentially harmful information about yourself that may have been posted by mistake or by a disgruntled(不滿(mǎn)的)former associate. Third, never post obviously offensive material will likely make its way to the wider world. By taking these simple steps, members of the digital world can realize the many benefits of e-community without experiencing some of the damaging unintended consequences.

1. The main purpose of the passage is to _____.

A．explain the growth of the digital world from the view of privacy

B．discuss the risks of the digital world and suggest ways to protect yourself

C．propose steps Facebook, MySpace and Google can take to protect user privacy

D．illustrate(說(shuō)明) potential unintended uses of private information

2. The writer implies that users should take all of the following actions to protect their online privacy EXCEPT _____.

A．know to whom you make your online information available

B．actively hunt for damaging information posted about you or under your name

C．speak with employers to inform them of any misinformation published about you

D．avoid uploading information that would be extremely damaging if it were discovered

3. Which of the following best describes the relationship between the last paragraph and the other paragraphs?

A．It offers detailed examples to support previous viewpoint

B．It summarizes the points of view in the previous paragraphs.

C．It provides suggestions to solve the previously mentioned problem

D．It offers evidence to make the previous points of view clearer.

4. ?According to the passage, which of the following does the author imply?

A．Information obtained unwillingly from the Internet is permitted in court.

B．It is impossible to protect yourself from unintended uses of information online.

C．Even if you restrict who can view your data, the government may still access it.

D．Done properly, posting offensive information about oneself brings no risk.

Does solving a math problem give you a headache? Do you feel nervous when you sit a math exam?

1. ?????????

   Scientists came to his conclusion with an in-depth experiment, which was published in the Public Library of Science One journal. They began by finding out how much participants fear math. Those involved were asked a series of questions such as how they feel when they receive a math textbook or when they walk into a math lesson.

   Based on their answers, participants were divided into groups. One group was made up of people who were particularly afraid of math and participants in the other group were more comfortable with the subject.

   Both groups were then given either math tasks or word tasks. When a math task was going to come next, a yellow circle would appear but when a word task was soon to come, a blue square would be shown.

   (2)______ It was like the pain they would feel, for example, if they burnt their hand on a hot stove. But they reacted less strongly when they knew that they would be faced with a word task.

   However, scientists saw no strong brain response from people in the second group.

   Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMA), math is associated with tension, apprehension and fear. “When you are really thinking about the math problems, your mind is racing and you are worrying about all the things that could go wrong,” explained Ian Lyons from University of Chicago, US, leader of the study. “(3)______”

   More interestingly, the brain activity disappeared when participants actually started dealing with the math tasks. “(4)______” Lyons said.

   Based on the study, scientists suggested that things could be done to help students worry less and move past their fear of math, which might mean they perform better in tests.

   Dear Sir or Madam,

   I’ve read about your poster about selecting the location of an exhibition of famous paintings, and I think that the museum is a nice place.

   First of all, compared with those libraries, the museum is an excellent place which inspires our eagerness for knowledge. It is certain that visitors will be more absorbed in the fantastic surroundings. By contrast, I don’t think those normal libraries in communities match well with the paintings with great fame and high prices.

   While some of my friends insist that libraries are more convenient, I maintain that since the transportation system in Shanghai is very advanced and the museum is located in the city center, it’s not a bit difficult for us to reach the show.

   All in all, I am firmly convinced that the museum is a better place for this grand painting exhibition, and it’ll be a great honor if I could study those wonderful paintings in the best museum in Shanghai. I hope you will accept my suggestion.

   ?

   Yours faithfully,

   Wang Min
