Hundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration rights in the US filled streets all

over America in early 2006.Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens-not criminals.Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally.Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures-including rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries.

Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise.Some want to keep the doors open.They need the labor.About 400,000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005,according to the Canadian Government statistics.However,all this growth means that cities need to adapt.Newcomers don't always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled.So industries are using mentoring(辅导) programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs.

With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating(减少),the Spanish Government has decided to get tough.There will be no more mass amnesties(特赦)for illegals,and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back,the government has announced.About 23,000 migrants(移民)landed on the islands in 2006,and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers。This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help.

France's new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high skilled migration.It takes effect in 2007.The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage.Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications.The selected foreign employees will be granted“skills and talents”visas,valid for three years.But some people show the concern that it'll cause brain drain in developing countries.

Many immigrants in the US took to the streets in early 2006,demanding that

A.John McCain be removed.

B.they be sent back home.

C.they be treated as citizens.

D.their culture be protected.

What's your idea of a good time? What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and
fifty thousand other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants?

It may sound strange but that is what many hundreds of thousands of young people in the UK do every summer. Why? Because summer is the time for outdoor music festivals. Held on a farm, the Glastonbury Festival is the most well-known and popular in the UK. It began in 1970 and was attended by one thousand five hundred people each paying an admission price of £1—the ticket included free milk from the farm.

Since then the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength--in 2004 one hundred and fifty thousand fans attended, paying £112 for tickets to the three-day event. Tickets for the event sold out within three hours. Acts included veteran (老的、著名的) superstars, such as Paul McCartney and James Brown, as well as new talents, like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone.

Although many summer festivals are run on a profit-making basis, Glastonbury is a charity event, donating millions of pounds to local and international charities(慈善事业).

Glastonbury is not unique in using live music to raise money for global poverty. In July of this year, the Live 8 concerts were held simultaneously (同时) in London, Pads, Rome and Bedim Superstars, such as Madonna, Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder performed in order to highlight international poverty and debt.

What does the author mean by "the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength"?

A.The festival has achieved continuing and growing success.

B.It has taken great efforts to hold the festival.

C.The festival has brought in a large amount of money.

D.There have been thousands of fans attending the festival.

Prehistoric men and women enjoyed a more varied diet than people do now, since they ate
species of plant and several hundreds thousands types of living things. But only a tiny percentage of these were ever domesticated. Modern shops have hastened a trend towards specialization which began in the earliest days of agriculture. The food of the rich countries has become cheaper relative to wages. It is speedily distributed in supermarkets. But the choice annually becomes less and less great. Even individual foods themselves become more standardized. We live in the world of carrot specially blunted in order to avoid making a hole in the bag, and the tomato grown to meet a demand for a standard weight of weighting tomatoes to a kilo. Siri von Reis asks: "Only the three major cereals (谷物类食物) and perhaps ten other widely cultivated species stand between famine and survival for the world's human population and a handful of drug plants has served Western civilization for several thousand years. A rather obvious question arises: Are we missing something?" After all, there are 800 000 species of plant on earth.

1.In prehistoric times people().

Text 3

Top National Health Service (NHS) nurses will be able to earn $ 40,000 a year without leaving frontline patient care in a modification to salary structures. New "super nurse" grades will be created to enable the best staff to increase their salaries without having to move into management desk jobs. Currently the most senior NHS nurses can earn a maximum $ 28,000 a year unless they are willing to withdraw from the frontline and become administrators. Hundreds of experienced and highly-qualified nurses are lost to patient care every year because of this oddity.

While only a few thousand of Britain's 332,000 NHS nurses will qualify for the $ 40,000- plus salary, fast-track promotion schemes and a simpler grading system will increase-the pay of many more. The government announced that a new simplified career structure would see -just four grades replacing the existing six. Nurses will begin their careers as healthcare assistants before moving up to registered practitioner grade, followed by senior registered practitioner and ultimate ly,consultant practitioner and a $ 40,000 salary.

" Nurses are rising to the challenge of modernisation," said a government official. " These proposals will help them improve their professional role further and provide a better service to patients. We do not think that in order to be paid more, nurses should have to move into management. Nurses working at the sharp end of patient care should have a career structure which no longer penalises them for wanting to stay there. "

The Nursing Strategy will include proposals to allow more flexible training courses and improve oppommities for qualified nurses who have left the profession to return in part-time roles.The Royal College of Nursing welcomed the reforms. The top salary level falls into line with figures it had presented to ministers.

56. Hundreds of experienced nurses are lost to patient care every year because they _________

[ A] dislike the nursing job

[ B ] are dissatisfied with their pay

[ C] are replaced by " super nurses"

[ D]lack further training for the profession

听力原文:The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2nd, 1666.

听力原文: The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2nd, 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.

The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.

By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.

People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat. The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.

(33)

A.In a bakery.

B.In a hotel.

C.In a wooden house.

D.In old St Paul's church.

听力原文: Isn't it amazing how small the world has become in recent years? Of course, the
physical size hasn't changed, but the world seems much smaller than it did a few hundred years ago. That's because of our improved ability to visit faraway places, contact one another, and instantly learn what goes on in other places.

A thousand years ago, people rarely left their town or village. Trips to nearby areas were made on foot or horseback, and there were fears of wild animals, bandits, and bad weather. Trips abroad were almost impossible for all but the richest and most powerful people. Communications were also limited, as it took weeks or even months to send letters long distances.

About 150 years ago, train travel made trips hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away possible. Also, with the invention of the telegraph, messages could be sent long distances at a low price. Many barriers of distance and communication were starting to fall.

In the 20th century, inventions such as the automobile, airplane, telephone, and television changed people's lives greatly. People could travel across a city in a few minutes or across the world in a few hours. Televisions allowed people to witness important events while they took place. Computers and the Internet let people send letters instantly, access huge amounts of information, and make new friends around the world.

As local communities continue to link together to form. the global community, there will surely be many new tools and methods that make the world seem even smaller.

Which of the following statements is NOT true about life 150 years ago?

A.Travelling long distances were easier than before.

B.Messages could be sent quickly.

C.Crossing the ocean could be done safely.

D.The fear of wild animals became a big barrier of communication.
