American doctors say that mothers who smoke cigarettes before their babies are born may slow the growth of their babies’ lungs. They say reduced lung growth could cause the babies to suffer breathing problems and lung disease later in life. Doctors in Boston, Massachusetts studied 1,100 children. The mothers of some of the children smoked, the other mothers did not. Doctors found that the lungs of the children whose mothers smoked was worse than those of the children whose mothers did not smoke, and that the children whose mother smoked developed 20% more cold and breathing diseases than other children later in life.
Another recent study found that children had a greater chance of developing lung cancer if their mothers smoked.

B
Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later.
I am one of those unfortunate people who have poor sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time but I still get lost on my way there. When I was young I was so shy that I never dared ask plete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that by some chance I would get to the spot I was heading for.
I am no longer too shy to ask people for direction, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit that they didn’t know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way, even if they do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long list of directions which you can not possibly hope to remember, and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the opposite direction to that in which you should be going.
If anyone ever asks me the way to somewhere, I always tell them I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid giving them wrong direction but even this can have embarrassing results.
Once I was on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him the way to the Sunlight Building. I gave my usual reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search for him out of the crowd behind me as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him waiting.
Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions of my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked.
60. What is the writer going to do when someone asks him for direction?
A. He will direct the right way to the person willingly.
B. He will reply to it by the means of being a stranger to the town.
C. He will give the very person long list of direction.
D. He is going to show the man an opposite direction.
61. Why did the writer consider himself to be an unlucky dog?
A. Because of his poor sense of direction.
B. Because he always fot the way home.
C. Because he did not have any friend.
D. Because he used to be shy and dared not ask others the way.
62. How did the visitor feel when he was showed into the very room?
A. He felt strange. B. He felt embarrassed.
C. He felt very sad. D. He felt astonished.
63. Who showed the right way to the interviewee aording to the passage?
A. Someone we don’t know.
B. The writer did it for himself.
C. The secretary did so.
D. A warm-hearted old lady did such a thing.

Those problem people feel they are so interested in playing online games that they could give up things such as school or family. They feel the need to spend more and more time online. And they bee upset if anyone tries to limit their online game playing.
How many problem game players are there? In mainland China, the possible number of problem online gamers is surprising. In 2004, the China Daily reported that China had 13.8 million online game players. Besides, it said that 80 percent of these were under 25 and had signs of being addicted to online games.

There are three branches of medicine. One is called “doctor medicine” or “scientific medicine”. Scientific doctors try to observe sickness, look for logical pattern, and then find out how the human body works. From these they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is suessful, in the ancient this approach probably did not cure many patients.
The second kind of medicine is called “natural cures” or “folk medicine”, in which less educated people try to cure sickness with various herbs. These folk healers also use observation and logic, but they are not so aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work, and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished(兴起) long before the development of scientific medicine and was more suessful in ancient times.
The third kind is called “health spas” or “faith healing”. Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times, a magician may make you a magic charm, or say a spell(咒语), to cure you. Some religious groups anize healing shrines(圣坛) for the sick. In these places people rest, get plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests(牧师) and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard, going to these places may be just the right thing to make you feel better.

The Kyoto Protocol is a plan created by the United Nations for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change．The plan aims to reduce the amount of industrial gases released into the environment. Some scientists say carbon dioxide and other industrial gases are to blame for climate change around the world. The scientists say such gases build up in the atmosphere and trap heat below. They say this results in increasing temperatures and rising sea levels.
The plan is called the Kyoto Protocol because it was negotiated(商议)in Kyoto，Japan in December，1997. The goal of the agreement is to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions(排出物) industrial gases released to below the 1evels of 1990.
Nations responsible for at least 55％of the world’s industrial carbon dioxide emissions had to approve the agreement before it could go into effect. The European Union and many other industrial nations quickly approved the Kyoto Protoco1．They receive credit for their own emissions if they invest in cleaned technologies in developing nations. Developing nations do not have to meet the emissions requirements of the agreement.
The United States produced 36％of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions in 1999. But the United States refused to approve the Kyoto Protocol. Before the Protocol was negotiated．The United States senate(参议院)voted that any treaty(条约)harmful to the economy of the United States could not be signed. President Bush has said that he supports the general idea of the treaty but will not send the treaty to the Senate for approval. Mr. Bush said that the agreement sets unfair differences between industrial and developing nations. He also said that the treaty could cause some Americans to lose their jobs.
After the United States rejected the Kyoto Protocol，approval by Russia was necessary for the agreement to e into effect．Russia approved the Protocol in November 2004 and the Kyoto Protocol went into effect on February 16th，2005. 157 countries have approved the agreement.

A. The US Senate has more power than President Bush
B. The Kyoto Protocol will really do some harm to the US economy
C. The worry of President Bush about signing the Kyoto Protocol is reasonable

参考例文:
After the college entrance exams, some panies that sell learning products are always trying to do anything they can to make full use of Number One Scholars in order to sell their products.
In fact, it's not easy for students to bee Number One Scholars. Most of them sueed not because of the products, but their proper way of learning and hard work. Every student has his own way of studying, so the Number One Scholars' experience may not be suitable for all the students. Most important of all, not all of these products are good enough to help us study.
I do hope that Number One Scholars can think of the poor students instead of themselves only
