　　its excellent

　　service. It now employs 200

　　staff

　　and

　　has

　　300 million

　　yuan(US $2.4million)in annual sales.

　　The woman said their business has been successful because they provide what

　　customrs really want.

　　These entrepreneurs are making use of a revalized

　　and

　　healthy demand

　　Net Libray is a library that lends out digitalbooks. It treats a digital

　　like a

　　paperback copy. It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of

　　the total income.

　　From the consumer’s point of view，this means that if more than，Say, five people want the latest Danielle Steel romance novel，other people who request

　　that book will get a message saying the title can’t be found.

　　It’s a model many publishers seem to have embraced. More than 350 gave the

　　company rights to hand out their digital works，and McGraw-Hill Corporation and

　　Houghton Mifflin Corporation have put money in the company. The California public

　　libraries and about 1，800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library service.

　　Some librarians criticize the New Library model. Stanford

　　University librarian

　　Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital woks,

　　which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet.

　　Kelle and some

　　other

　　librarians argue

　　for

　　the

　　e-book

　　vision

　　set forth by E-Brary. E-Brary is starting a service that lets us users read books for free.

　　But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to print out material or copy and paste it into a different file or tries to download copy onto a computer.

　　Christopher Warnock，chief executive of E-Brarw, believes most consumers won’t want to buy entire books，only the parts that interest them.

　　“There’s not really a lot of good in owning an electronic file and having to store it

　　and manage it.It doesn't make sense.”he said.

　　B.They share the money with the Net Library.

　　C.They get money by cutting the cost of the books.

　　61.The underlined word“embraced”in the 3rd paragraph means .

　　A.taken something willingly

　　B.held something tightly

　　C.disliked something badly

　　D.tried out something hard

　　62.From the 2nd paragraph we can see consumers .

　　A.don’t care if they are charged money

　　B.enjoy the service of the Net Library

　　C.don’t like other people borrowing books

　　D.complain about the limited number of the new books

　　63.What does the last paragraph mean?

　　A.Net Library is not a good way for the consumers.

　　B.There is no need for consumers to have a whole book.

　　C.EBrary is not a good library for the consumers.

　　D.It’s reasonable to charge the consumers money for copying some pages.

　　Thousands of years ago people guessed the time of day by watching the sun.

　　Later，they found it was easier to tell the exact time by looking at the shadows.Thus， the sundial(日晷) was invented.

　　The sundial proved a useful timepiece

　　in sunny weather. However，another typc of

　　timepiece was necessary

　　for cloudy weather and nigh time.A sand glass was another

　　common measurer of time.Two glass bottles were connected by a very

　　small opening.

　　The top bottle was filled with sand，which dropped slowly into the botton one in a

　　certain period of time.Hour glasses were widely used then.Three—minute sand glasses

　　are still used in many homes to time the boiling of eggs.

　　The real ancestor of modern clocks was the water clock.In China ,an early

　　water clock was made up of several bowls. Water trickled(滴) from one bowl to another to keep the clock

　　going. Visitors to the

　　Beijing Palace Museum can still see the old

　　water clocks showing the time there.

　　In the Middle Ages a wateless clock was invented which

　　worked by means of

　　weights. To keep

　　the

　　weight

　　falling

　　at

　　the

　　same

　　speed，a

　　system

　　of wheels

　　was

　　invented. The pendulum(钟摆) was

　　soon

　　developed

　　to control

　　the

　　speed of the

　　wheels. Thus the modern form of clock came into being.

　　64.Which of the following is the correct picturr of a sand glass?

　　C.

　　D.

　　D.to have eggs boiled

　　66.If you visit Beijing Palace Museum, you

　　.

　　A.will see the old water clocks broken

　　B.will find the time shown by the old water clocks is wrong

　　C.can find the old water clocks still telling the time there

　　D.will find the old water clocks have gone

　　67.In the Middle Ages the weight falling speed of a clock was kept by .

　　A.several bowls

　　When several different people look at the same person, it is not unusual for each of them to see different things; when you alone observe one behavior or one person at two different times, you may see different things. The following are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions:

　　Each person’s perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning, education, and personal experience.

　　Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what we’ve observed. It is not necessarily true that person’s perception is based on observations of a particular person. Your observations may be totally controlled by some. Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person; or you may focus primarily on the situation or role relationship. Most people do not use the same yardstick to measure their parents, their friends, and strangers.

　　Sometimes we see only what we want to see what may be obverse to others because of our own needs, desires, or temporary emotional states. This is a process known as selective perception. Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory information is particularly obvious, but it can be done. We can ignore the stimulus—“He’s basically a good boy, so what I saw was not shoplifting.”

　　We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information—“All kids get into mischief(顽皮). Taking a book from the bookstore isn’t such a big deal.” We call change the meaning of the contradictory information—“It wasn’t shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later.”...

　　68.While observing a particular person,

　　.

　　A.one is likely to take all aspects into consideration

　　B.one pays more attention to his or her advantages

　　C.children often differ from gownups in perception

　　D.one tends to choose certain cues to look for

　　69.Observation of the same person by two people at the same time may differ because

　　.

　　A.their yardsticks are not the same

　　B.either of them may be slow to catch information

　　C.the time for observations is not long enough

　　D.each of them uses different language to express his or her impressions

　　70.The underlined word “ignore” in Paragraph 4 means to

　　.

　　A.understand something

　　B.try to do something

　　C.pay no attention to something

　　D.know something better

　　71.The worst thing in selective perception is that

　　.

　　A.perceived information runs against your desire

　　B.facts can be totally ignored and distorted

　　C.importance of contradictory information can be overrated

　　D.the same information may not be dealt with in the same way

　　WASHINGTONLaura Straub is a very worried woman.

　　Her job is to find families for French teenagers who expect to live with American families in the summer.

　　It’s not easy, even desperate.

　　“We have many children left to place: 40 out of 75,” said Straub, who works for a Paris based foreign exchange programme called LEC.

　　When exchange programmes started 50 years ago, more families were willing to help others. For one thing, more mothers stayed home.

　　But now, increasing numbers of women work outside the home. Exchange student programmes have struggled in recent years to sign up host families for the 30,000 teenagers who come from abroad every year to have some courses for one year in the United States. as well as the thousands more who take part in summer programmes.

　　School systems in many parts of the US,unhappy about accepting nontaxpaying students, have also strictly limited the number of exchange students they accept. At the same time, the idea of hosting foreign students is becoming less exotic (异国情调的).

　　In searching for host families, who usually receive no pay, exchange programmes are increasingly broadening their requests to include everyone from young couples to the retired.

　　“We are open to many different types of families.” said Vickie Weiner, eastern regional director for ASSE, a 25-year-old programme that sends about 30,000 teenagers

　　on one-year exchange programmes worldwide.

　　For elderly people,exchange students “keep up young——they really do,” said Jean Foster,who is hosting 16-year-old Nina Porst from Denmark.

　　72.Foreign teenagers come to American families wilh the purpose of .

　　A.finding thier parents in America

　　B.finding good jobs in America

　　C.learning the culture of America

　　D.enjoying the life of America

　　73.In the past, Straub’s job was easy, because American families .

　　A.needed more money to live

　　B.had fewer children to support

　　C.had spare rooms to rent

　　D.were not as busy as now

　　74.To deal with the problem in recent years, Straub and her workmates have to .

　　A.ask different kinds of families for help

　　B.limit the number of the exchange students

　　C.borrow much money to pay for the costs

　　D.force some families to accept students

　　75.From the last paragraph we can conclude that .

　　A.exchange students are welcome in America

　　B.exchange students must pay much money to the host families

　　C.American students don’t want to join the exchange programmes

　　D.old Americans can benefit from hosting exchange students

　　you given up?

　　W:Well,no...I came back late yesterday and found Simon asleep

　　in the chair. He'd been writing reports all day long and he was too tired to go out again, so we gave the lesson a miss.

　　M:You’ve missed quite a lot of lessons lately, haven’t you? Are you losing heart?

　　W:Yes, I’m afraid so. Neither Simon nor I have a gift for

　　languages. People just laugh at us when we attempt to speak German. How did you and Lily pick it up so quickly and easily?You’ve hardly been in Germany a month.

　　M:It was neither quick nor easy. We’d both studied the language before we came,and we only needed to review it a bit.

　　W:Anyway, all our friends here speak English fluently so we don’t really need to learn German.

　　M:I don’t know. I really haven’t thought what we’d do. I would just like to get away from the city for a while.

　　W:Would you like me to pack a picnic or would you like to buy something there?

　　M:A picnic sounds good to me.

　　W:OK. If you’ll give me about an hour, we could have fried chicken,some salad,cookies and something to drink. What do you think about that?

　　W:While I’m doing this,how about you planning our trip?

　　M:All right, that sounds like a good idea.

　　M:What are you doing,Jane?

　　W:I am planning for a party.

　　M:A party? What party? Your birthday party?

　　W:Of course not. My birthday is in December, don’t you remember? It’s the company’s party. The general manager

　　wants to invite some famous scientists and bankers and

　　professors from some universities to the party, since these people are very important to the development of the company.

　　M:Have you finished your plan?

　　W:Finished? You must be joking. I have just started. I still need to get a lot more information and I have to write many invitation letters.

　　M:Is there anything that I can do for you? I’d be glad to help.

　　W:Would you? That would be very nice. Let me tell you what to do first.

　　Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I’m pleased to meet all of you here because you are my special guests. Welcome to the museum of our company. My name is Brown, well, George Brown. I am the general manager of the company. As you all know, we mainly make computers in our company, as well as some other electronic products. But we are also quite interested in education. That’s why we have founded this museum, where, we hope, children can learn how computers have been developed, how they are made and how they are used in industry, agriculture, scientific

　　research, and many other areas. Children can operate the computers, they can push buttons and listen to stories about

　　computers, and they can enjoy video shows. I know you are all

　　teachers, and you know what school children really need. So I

　　hope you can give me suggestions after you have been shown around. I want my museum to be the best of its kind when it opens to all school children. This is Mr Tom Silver, my assistant. He will

　　be your guide now. I’ll be with you again in one hour and a half. Enjoy yourselves.

　　See you!
