Sometimes the real world can be a confusing place. It is not always fair or kind. And in the real world there are not always happy endings, That is why, every once in a while, we like to escape into the world of fantasy-place where things always go our way and there is always a happy ending.
We want to believe in fantastic creatures in imaginary lands. We want to believe magic powers, good friends, and the power of good to overcome evil. We all fantasize， bout being able to fly and lift buildings off the ground. And how good a magic sword would feel in our hand as we go off to kill a dragon，or win the hand of a beautiful princess.
The amazing adventures of Superman, Peter Pan, and Harry Potter have charmed many people, children and adults alike. The main reason is that these smiles offer us chances to get away from this real, frustrating world and allow us to find some magical solutions to our problems. For example, Superman always arrives in the nick of time to prevent a disaster from happening, Peter Pan can fly at will to tease the bad guy Captain Hook, and Harry Potter has his magic power to take revenge on his uncle, aunt and cousin, who always ill-treat him.

It is hard to track the blue whale, the ocean’s largest creature which has almost been killed off by commercial whaling and is now listed as an endangered species. Attaching radio equipment to it is difficult and visual sightings are too unreliable to give real insight into its behavior.
So biologists were delighted early this year when with the help of the Navy they were able to track a particular blue whale for 43 days monitoring its sounds. This was possible because of the Navy’s formerly top-secret system of underwater listening equipment spanning the oceans. Tracking whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian scientists after the cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built over the decades to track the ships of potential enemies.
Earth scientists announced at a news conference recently that they used the system for closely monitoring a deep-sea volcanic eruption for the first time and that they plan similar studies. Other scientists have proposed to use the network for tracking ocean currents and measuring changes in ocean and global temperatures. The speed of sound in water is roughly one mile a second-slower than through land but faster than through air. What is most important, different layers of ocean water can act as channels for sounds focusing them in the same way a stethoscope does when it carries faint noises from a patient’s chest to a doctor’s ear. This focusing is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean especially low frequency ones can often travel thousands of miles.
62. The passage is chiefly about _____.
A. an effort to protect an endangered marine species
B. the civilian use of a military detection system.
C. the exposure of a U. S. Navy top-secret weapon.
D. a new way to look into the behavior of blue whales.
63. The underwater listening system was originally designed _____.
A. to mark and locate enemy ships
B. to monitor deep-sea volcanic eruptions
C. to study the movement of ocean currents
D. to replace the global radio communications network
64. The deep-sea listening system makes use of _____.
A. the complex technology of focusing sounds under water
B. the capacity of sound to travel at a high speed
C. the special quality of layers of ocean water in sending out sound
D. low-frequency sounds traveling across different layers of water
65. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A. new radio equipment should be developed for tracking the endangered blue whales.
B. blue whales are no longer endangered with the use of the new listening system
C. opinions differ as to whether civilian scientists should be allowed to use military technology
D. military technology has great potential in civilian use
66. Which of the following is true about the U. S. Navy underwater listening network?
A. It is now partly used by civilian scientists.
B. It has been replaced by a more advanced system.
C. It became useless to the military after the cold war.
D. It is necessary in protecting endangered species.

Nominations for the Academy Awards will be announced on Feb.12, and the safest prediction is that everyone will find something to complain about. But of course the Oscars are not “fair”. They have always been more about remarkable scenes and excessive advertisements than about the reasonable recognition of talent.
In the 73-year history of the Academy Awards, women have been nominated for best director exactly twice. Yet the motion picture academy would never consider crewing a category for “best directress”.
Even in fields where there are more women, they tend to fare poorly against men. Of the 146 writers nominated for an Academy Award in the last decade, for example, only 16 have been women. No one favors separate awards for male and female screenwriters.
And if the idea is to recognize professionals who tend to be ignored in Hollywood, then there ought to be a separate award for black actors. You think women have it hard in Hollywood? Only one black actor has ever won the top award and only 13 have ever been nominated, compared with 300 white actors.
The Academy Awards indulge in sexual difference because the Oscars are, first and foremost, about glitz. Actress are more in the public eye than almost anyone else in Hollywood. No offence to the male actors in their black or white evening dresses, but on Oscar night, it’s the women who bring the attraction. Audiences want to see this year’s dresses and hairstyles. Studios want female stars to help them sell tickets.
67. How many men have been nominated for best screenwriter in the history of Academy Awards?
A. 16 B. 146 C. 162 D. 130
68. The author mentioned two important things in this passage, they are _____.
A. Hollywood and Academy awards
B. Hollywood and sexual separation
C. actors and actresses
D. racial discrimination and sexual difference
69. In “No offence to the male actors”(Para 5). What does the word “offence” probably mean?
A. disrespect B. crime C. anger D. disagreement
70. As for the situation of African-Americans. Which of the following is true?
A. Only one black actor has ever been nominated for the Academy Awards.
B. Only one black artist has ever won the best director title.
C. Only 16 black actors have ever been nominated for best actor.
D. African-Americans experience more unfair treatment.
71. Which of the following statement is true in this passage?
A. The Academy Awards has a 73-year history.
B. Two women won the best director title in the history of the Academy Awards.
C. Many professionals support separate awards for male and female screenwriters.
D. On Oscar night, studios want super stars to help them sell tickets.

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldn't help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, "So, how have you been?" And the boy who could not have been more than seven or eight years old replied, "Frankly, I've been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in my mind because it strengthened my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn't find out we were "depressed" until we were in high school. The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don't seem childlike any more. Children speak like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Human development is based not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of access（進人）to social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new situation. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally，we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示）machine has been fixed in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information, indiscriminately（不加區(qū)分地），to all viewers Mike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation（誘惑），many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more vivid moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practiced. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
72. Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world
A. through touch with society
B. gradually and under guidance
C. naturally and by biological instinct（本能）
D. through exposure to social information
73. In the author's opinion, the phenomenon that today's children seem adultlike is caused by ___.
A. the widespread influence of television
B. the poor arrangement of teaching content
C. the fast step of human intellectual development
D. the constantly rising standard of living
74. Why is the author in favor of communication through print for children?
A. It enables children to gain more social information.
B. It develops children's interest in reading and writing.
C. It helps children to memorize and practice more.
D. It can control what children are to learn.
75. What does the author think of the change in today's children?
A. He feels amused by the children's adultlike behavior
B. He thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note.
C. He considers it a positive development.
D. He seems to be upset about it.
