Vancouver
Natural Resources
As a major centre for the global forestry industry, Vancouver is host to many international forestry conferences and events, and the natural home of the massive BC forestry business. Companies such as Canfor and West Fraser Timber Co., the second and third largest lumber (木材) producers in the world, are headquartered in Vancouver. Vancouver is also a major centre for the mining industry.
International Trade
International trade is a key part for Vancouver's economy. The city has Canada's largest port and is one of North America's major gateways for Pan-Pacific trade. The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports and second on the West Coast in total goods volume. Banking and Finance
The headquarters for HSBC Canada is located in the Financial District in downtown. Canada's third largest commercial entity (实体), Jim Pattison Group is also based in Vancouver.
International Relation
Vancouver is a major centre for diplomacy (外交) and foreign relations. Most countries of the world have consulate (领事馆) or general offices in the Central Business District. In fact, many major diplomatic conferences are hosted by the city - including the world famous G7 summit with President Clinton, APEC, and the World Trade Organization. Greenpeace has its world headquarters in the city. Therefore, Vancouver was among the first North American cities to declare itself a Nuclear Weapons Free Zone.
Tourism
Tourism is a leading industry to Vancouver. The Whistler-Blackcomb Resort is among the most popular skiing resorts in North America, and was the site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Vancouver's beaches, parks, waterfronts, and mountain backdrops and its multi-cultural character attract more and more tourists.
Films
Vancouver was also called "Hollywood North", for hosting the production of about ten percent of Hollywood's movies. Many U.S. television and film series are shot exclusively in Vancouver. This has partly been because of the favourable Canadian dollar exchange rate.
56. Which of the following description about Vancouver is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports.
B. Vancouver is a film production centre and called "Hollywood North".
C. International forestry conferences and events were held in Vancouver.

B
If you intend using humor in your talk to make people smile, you must know how to identify shared experiences and problems. Your humor must be relevant to the audience and should help to show them that you are one of them or that you understand their situation and are in sympathy with their point of view. Depending on whom you are addressing, the problems will be different. If you are talking to a group of managers, you may refer to the disorganized methods of their secretaries; alternatively if you are addressing secretaries, you may want to comment on their disorganized bosses.
Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses' convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and. is being shown around by St. Peter. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny weather, and so on. Everyone is very peaceful, polite and friendly until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rushes to the head of the line, grabs his food and stomps (重踏) over to a table by himself. "Who is that?" the new arrival asked St. Peter. "Oh, that's God." came the reply, "but sometimes he thinks he's a doctor."
If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and it'll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the uneatable canteen food or the chairman's notorious (臭名昭著的) bad taste in ties. With other audiences you mustn't attempt to cut in with humor as they will resent an outsider making remarks about their canteen or their chairman. You will be on safer ground if you stick to scapegoats (替身) like the Post Office or the telephone' system.
If you feel awkward being humorous, you must practice so that it becomes more natural. Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff (即兴) remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner. Often it's the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark.
Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on a familiar quote "If at first you don't succeed, give up" or a play on words or a situation. Search for exaggeration and understatements (轻描淡写). Look at your talk and pick out a few words or sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor.
.
A. take advantage of different kinds of audience
B. make fun of the disorganized people
C. address different problems to different people
D. show sympathy for your listeners
.
A. impolite to new arrivals B. entitled (有资格) to some privileges
C. very conscious of their godlike role D. very busy even during lunch hours
A. have benefited many people B. are the focus of public attention
C. are an inappropriate subject for humor D. have often been the laughing stock
A. Effective ways to use humor B. An appropriate topic matters in humor
C. How to add humor to speech D. Casualness makes for natural humor C
Why do some people when they drink alcohol? This effect is a common reaction to alcohol among East Asians. It affects about 36 percent of Japanese, Chinese and Koreans.
For many, even a small amount of alcohol can cause unpleasant effects. Most commonly, their face, neck and sometimes their whole body turn red. People might also feel uncomfortable and sick to their stomach. They might experience a burning sensation (感觉), increased heart rate, shortness of breath and headaches.
The cause is a genetic difference that they are born with called an ALDH2 deficiency (缺乏). It prevents their bodies from treating alcohol the way other people do. But the effects might be more serious than just a red face. Researchers warn of a link between this condition and an increased risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) from drinking alcohol.
The more alcohol people with this deficiency drink, the greater their risk is. In Japan and South Korea, for example, many people have the deficiency but still drink heavily. Researchers have found that these drinkers develop a form of esophageal cancer six to ten times more often than those without the deficiency.
Esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. It can be treated when found early, but once it grows the chances of survival drop sharply. The researchers estimate that at least five hundred forty million people have the deficiency, about eight percent of the world's population.
Philip Brooks is a researcher at the National Institute in the United States. He says it is important to educate people about the link between the alcohol flushing effect and esophageal cancer. He says doctors should ask East Asian patients about their experiences with facial flushing after drinking alcohol. Those with a history of it should be advised to limit their alcohol use. They should also be warned that cigarette smoking works with the alcohol in a way that further increases the risk of esophageal cancer.
A. walk unsteadily B. turn red in the face
C. appear unpleasant D. talk more than usual
A. the cause of the effects of alcohol B. Asians and alcohol
C. the advantages of drinking alcohol D. unpleasant effects caused by alcohol
.
A. it can't be treated at all B. it is not easy to be discovered early
C. it is hard to cure once it has developed D. people are addicted to alcohol
66.
A. only some East Asians have the ALDH2 deficiency
B. about 36 percent of Japanese, Chinese and Koreans are heavy drinkers
C. unpleasant effects occur only when people with this deficiency drink a lot
D. the ALDH2 deficiency may be passed on from generation to generation
D
"I moved him," the old man said. "I moved him then." He felt faint again now but he held on the great fish all the strength that he could. 1 moved him, he thought. Maybe this time I can get him over. Pull, hands, he thought. Hold up, legs. Last for me, head. Last for me. You never went. This - 7 -
time I'll pull him over.
But when he put all of his effort on, starting it well out before the fish came alongside and pulling with all his strength, the fish pulled part way over and then righted himself and swam away. "Fish," the old man said. "Fish, you are going to have to die anyway. Do you have to kill me too?"
That way nothing is accomplished, he thought. His mouth was too dry to speak but he could not reach for the water now. I must get him alongside this time, he thought. I am not good for many more turns. Yes, you are, he told himself. You're good for ever.
On the next turn, he nearly had him. But again the fish righted himself and swam slowly away.
You are killing me, fish, the old man thought. But you have a right to. Never have I seen a greater, or more beautiful, or a calmer or more noble thing than you, brother. Come on and kill me. I do not care who kills who.
Now you are getting confused in the head, he thought. You must keep your head clear. Keep your head clear and know how to suffer like a man. Or a fish, he thought.
"Clear up, head," he said in a voice he could hardly hear. "Clear up."
Twice more it was the same on the turns.
I do not know, the old man thought. He had been on the point of feeling himself go each time. I do not know. But I will try it once more.
He tried it once more and he felt himself going when he turned the fish. The fish righted himself and swam off again slowly with the great tail heaving in the air.
I'll try it again, the old man promised, although his hands were mushy now and he could only see well in flashes.
He tried it again and it was the same. So he thought, and he felt himself going before he started; I will try it once again.
The old man dropped the line and put his foot on it and lifted the harpoon (鱼叉) as high as he could and drove it down with all his strength, and more strength he had just summoned (召集), into the fish's side just behind the great chest fin that rose high in the air to the altitude of the man's chest. He felt the iron go in and he leaned on it and drove it further and then pushed all his weight after it.
Then the fish came alive, with his death in him, and rose high out of the water showing all his great length and width and all his power and his beauty. He seemed to hang in the air above the old man in the skiff. Then he fell into the water with a crash that sent spray (喷) over the old man and over all of the skiff.
67. Why did the old man keep talking to himself while fighting against the fish?
A. To rescue himself from great pressure.B. To remind himself of the hidden danger.
C. To prevent himself from feeling tired. D. To give himself constant encouragement.
68. Which of the following statements is true about the fisherman?
A. The fisherman seemed to be playing a cat-and-mouse game with the fish.
B. The fisherman showed respect for his rival in this fierce battle.
C. The fisherman has been fighting with the fish for long, which made him anxious.
D. The fisherman, experienced as he was in fishing, nearly got killed on several occasions.
69. What can be inferred from the sentence "Fish, you are going to have to die anyway"(Para. 3) ?
A. Quite a few fishermen were chasing and hunting the fish.
B. The fish had been seriously injured and couldn't live long.
C. The old man had much confidence in catching the fish.
D. As a matter of fact, the fish was too old to live any longer.
70. Which of the following words best describes the old man?
A. Ambitious. B. Aggressive. C. Strong-willed.D. Sympathetic.

The world would have been so much better if we all knew how to say and do the right thing at the right time. However, that is not the case, especially when it comes to instilling (逐步培养) proper behavior in kids. Behavior modification(BM) techniques were recently created to help in instilling proper behavior in children as well as adults.
Behavior modification refers to establishing various appropriate behaviors in individuals and discouraging those that are not desired. Behavior modification techniques are developed largely according to the principles of operant conditioning by B.F. Skinner, an American behaviorist. These techniques are used in behavior modification treatment that aims to correct and instill appropriate behavior in children.
The commonly used behavior modification techniques are positive reinforcement (强化), negative reinforcement and punishment. Positive reinforcement refers to reinforcing a proper behavior that most desire through the process of rewarding it. This can be done by praising the
individual as soon as he performs a desired behavior. Negative reinforcement behavioral strategies are based on the removal of a negative consequence or a behavior because the desired behavior was performed. For example, letting a child not help in washing dishes because he behaved well at a family gathering is a form of negative reinforcement. Punishment is something we all can relate to. Yes, it is just what it means. However, when put in words, punishment refers to subjecting (使服从于)an individual to a negative condition because of an inappropriate behavior.
The behavior modification techniques for children are mostly based on positive and negative reinforcement. However, parents should realize that these techniques can't be relied upon totally for child behavior modification. Though the behavior modification techniques lead to quick results, a parent should continuously try to cultivate (培养) in his child the ability to appreciate the reason why such a behavior is expected of him. This can be done through effective communication and greater focus on the parent-child relationship. As a parent, don't make the reward a monetary one. Try to make it look more like a privilege than a reward. A parent should also be consistent with his technique and apply it whenever there is a chance so that the child gets a clear idea of what is expected and what is not.
Although we talk so much about the role of a parent in bringing positive behavior modification in children, both parents and teachers have equally important roles to play. Teachers play their role through preventive classroom management, teaching skills for solving social problems like alternative thinking, and continuous monitoring of a child's behavior. It is true that there are various behavior modification techniques available for encouraging proper behavior in children. However, there is nothing that can take the place of proper parenting and an affectionate (慈爱) environment.

China has allowed all couples to have two children, abandoning its decades-long one-child policy. The change of policy is intended to balance population development and address the challenge of an aging population.
With reference to the new policy, some single-child parents can't wait to welcome new babies. However, many factors considered, some feel a dilemma associated with their decision to have one more child. For one thing, it seems beneficial as there are no other children in the family for the only child to associate with, and this may lead to the child feeling lonely at times, especially during vacations.
For another, a common argument against having just one child is that an only child may be more spoiled than one with brothers or sisters. Many people believe that a single child won't have to learn to negotiate with others, and respect the give-and-take involved in many relationships. Some think this may leave the child less able to interact well with people his or her own age than one who has been raised with brothers or sisters.
However, the pressure of giving time and energy to a second child can seem too great, particularly for those with busy careers, resulting in them selecting to have no more children. For some other parents, the financial burden of having a second child may be the prime consideration.
