What a long winter vacation! I stay at home doing nothing except homework every day as a robot. One day, a idea occurred to me: “Why not to find a part-time job to learn something new?” The next morning, after visit many shops, I was lucky enough to find one in a small but pretty cake shop. When a tired—looking old man came in to buy some cakes, I immediate helped him sit down in a chair and brought him the cake. After he paid them, I said thanks to him. He looked too happy that he praised me with a satisfied smile. From this, I learned: “Be good to others or they’ll be good to you.”

China’s graduates will find it harder than ever to get jobs in the coming years, as China’s economy slows down and unemployment rises.

Experts say a chronic(长期的)over-supply of graduates and a shortage of “high end” jobs had already been causing difficulties, but the mass lay-offs and business closures (倒闭)in recent months have made the situation even worse.

Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao has told students that the problem of graduate employment is “at the top of the government’s agenda(议事日程) .”

Six and half million graduates in China will be looking for a job over the next year.

The government says it is going to try to create nine million jobs for them and for those from previous years who are still unemployed. That will not be easy though. Economic development in China is expected by some to fall below the figure of 8%.

There are three problems for the new graduates to deal with. Firstly, the economic slowdown here means there are fewer jobs available. Secondly, widespread redundancies(冗余) mean there are more experienced people than there might have been in previous years, trying to secure the same jobs as them. Thirdly, there are many graduates from previous years who are still jobless.

Cao Shanshan, studying exhibition planning and management at Shanghai Business School, said everyone thought it would be easy for her to get a job when she graduated, because Shanghai will host the World Expo in 2010. But even though she has had dozens of interviews at job fairs, she has not managed to land the kind of job she wanted. “I’ve ended up with an intern(实习)job,” she says, “which has nothing to do with my major.” She says she is earning about $230 a month, more than many of her classmates who have had to take jobs that give them half that, but far less than she had hoped for. “I might go back to school to study for a master’s degree because it’s so hard,” she says. “Hopefully, finding a job will be easier with a higher qualification.”

1.What does the passage mainly discuss?

   A. The government will create more jobs for the graduates.

   B. It is difficult for the graduates to find a job

   C. Cao Shanshan doesn’t find an ideal job.

   D. To find a good job easily, graduates must go back to school for master’s degrees .

2.The underlined word “That” in the text refers to ________________.

   A. Developing the economy      B. Reducing the number of graduates 

C. Looking for jobs             D. Creating nine million jobs for graduates

3.According to the text, the possible reasons for the problem of graduate employment are the following EXCEPT that __________________.

   A. too many graduates appear every year and there are not enough “high end” jobs

 B. a great number of workers have been out of employment and a lot of business has closed  

   C. the expectation to find a satisfying job from graduates is too high

   D. China’s economy slows down because of the global economic crisis.

What science fiction once told of other worlds far away, is now a fact. Astronomers prove the existence of another solar system like ours with some planets in the constellation Andromeda(仙女座) .

Geoffrey Marcy is a professor of astronomy and physics at San Francisco State University and says, “What we have found now, for the first time ever, is indeed a fully-grown system of planets around the star Upsilon Andromeda, in which there are three planets, one close in, one at a middle distance, and one farther out.” The star is slightly larger than our sun. The planets are huge, like our Jupiter (木星)

Marcy’s partner in this research, Debra Fischer, describes the solar system, “Here’s the inner planet that goes around every 46 days, the middle planet that goes around every 242 days, and then the outer planet that goes around every three and a half to four years.”

 Astronomically, it’s not far away, 44 light years. The sun of that solar system, Upsilon Andromeda, is so near and bright that it can be seen by using no equipment during summer and fall.

For twelve years astronomers searched the skies in the belief that if our sun has planets around it, surely others do, too. Geoffery Marcy says, “And then starting three and a half years ago, we began finding for the first time planets singly, one planet here around one star.”

“When I look up at the stars now at night, I can imagine easily that every one of them has planets around them,” says Debra Fischer.

     It was the tremble in the star that led Marcy to discover the planets. “The star rocks around due to the gravity of the planet much like a dog owner gets pulled around by a little dog.”

     Can they support life? We don’t know, because present technology is not advanced enough to determine what the planets are made of. That, Marcy says, is astronomy’s next challenge.

1.Which of the following can best show the relationship between Andromeda (A), Upsilon Andromeda system (U) and the three mentioned planets (P) ?

A                       B                     C                   D

2.What led to Marcy’s discovery of the planets?

A. That he found a dog owner was pulled by his dog.

B. The tremble of Upsilon Andromeda

C. That any planet has gravity

D. That he believes any star has its planets

3.We can infer from the text that scientists are _______________

  A. to find out whether the planets can support life

  B. to find means to communicate with the living beings on the planets

  C. to find means to travel to the planets

  D. soon to be able to find another planet for life to live on

Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee(裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities can’t be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, where it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

1.What is TRUE about children when they play games?

  A. They can stop playing any time they like.     B. They can test their personal abilities.

  C. They want to pick a better team             D. They don’t need rules.

2.One of the reasons that a child likes playing games is that ___________.

   A. he can be someone other than himself      B. he can become popular among friends

   C. he finds he is always lucky in games       D. he likes the place where he plays a game

3.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE about children who play games?

A. They have equal chances to win         B. Everyone obeys the rules.

C. They are afraid of their partners         D. The situation they think of is in their control

4.The writer believes that __________________________.

A. children should make better rules for their games

B. children should invite grown-ups to play with them

C. children’s games can benefit them a lot

D. children play games without reasons
