　　阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。An American woman has been held by authorities in China for the past six months accused of stealing state secrets. Mrs Phan-Gillis, a naturalised American born in Vietnam, was detained in March, during a trade visit to promote the Texan city of Houston. Sandy Phan-Gillis's husband Jeff Gillis says she is now being moved to a more secure facility.

　　China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said on Tuesday that Mrs. Phan-Gillis was "suspected of carrying out activities endangering national security, and is currently being investigated by relevant departments"."We hope that the outside world will respect China's handling of this case according to law," he added.

　　Mrs Phan-Gillis was president of the Houston Shenzhen Sister City Association and consulted for Chinese and US businesses. One of her colleages in the trip told the BBC "there was nothing out of the ordinary" about the trip but described the sequence of events as they left China as "bizarre". They had been travelling around China for about a week when the group went through immigration control at the border between Guangdong and Macau, in Zhuhai, on 19 March.

　　The group became separated, regrouping on the other side - without Mrs Phan-Gillis.After returning to Houston several days later, Mr Gillis told them that the US consulate had informed him his wife had been detained, accused of stealing state secrets.

　　Her family vigorously deny the accusations, which they say have never been properly explained. Since then, consular officials have been able to visit Mrs Phan-Gillis periodically, to check up on her health, which her husband says is poor, and to pass on messages.

　　The US embassy in Beijing would not comment on the story and referred the BBC to the US Department of State in Washington, which was closed at the time of enquiry.

　　1. What do we know about Mrs Phan-Gillis according to the passage?

　　A. A Vietnamese who goes to China on business.

　　B. She went on a trade visit with her husband.

　　C. A consultant for Chinese and US businesses of the Houston Shenzhen Sister City Association

　　C. Whether Mrs Phan-Gillis is guilty or not is still under investigation.

　　D. They are expecting other countries’ intervene.

　　3. What is the American government’s reaction to this event?

　　A. positive

　　B. negative

　　C. unclear

　　D. neutral

　　4. What can we infer from the passage?

　　A. The family of Mrs Phan-Gillis think she is innocent.

　　1,500 scholarship from the Gardeners Foundation． In the last two years, the foundation has awarded 13 such prizes to low-income kids, regardless of citizenship． And Tabia plans to give out hundreds more．

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。hen we’re in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?

　　In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.

　　These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯）when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.

　　It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.

　　A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent.”

　　Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.

　　21. The passage is mainly about ______.

　　A. privacy online

　　B. parents’ friend requests

　　C. the generation gap

　　D. social networks

　　22. From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.

　　A. parents have realized the importance of social networks

　　B. parents feel secure about their privacy online

　　C. social networks successfully fill the generation gap

　　D. social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate

　　23. Teenagers may refuse a parent’s friend request because ______.

　　A. their parents make negative comments on them

　　B. they hide something from their parents

　　C. they are unwilling to be watched by parents

　　D. their parents tend to fall behind in technology

　　24. The passage is written mainly for ______.
