• 2．Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater，employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups.It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater's 75-year history.This time，however，the cleanup was a little different.As one group of workers carried out the rubbish，another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building's end.
     The film classic  The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater.Though the movie is 30 years old，most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building.Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate.The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
     Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.He added that the theater's location was also a reason. "This used to be the center of town，" he said. "Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses."
     Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However，these plans were abandoned because of financial problems.Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm，which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.
     The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie.The theater will be missed.
  
  （1）In what way was yesterday's cleanup at the Plaza special？

  
  A．It made room for new equipment.
  B．It signaled the closedown of the theater.
  C．It was done with the help of the audience.
  D．It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.
  （2）Why was The Last Picture Show put on？

  
  A．It was an all-time classic.
  B．It was about the history of the town.
  C．The audience requested it.
  D．The theater owner found it suitable.
  （3）What will probably happen to the building？

  
  A．It will be repaired.
  B．It will be turned into a museum.
  C．It will be knocked down.
  D．It will be sold to the city government.
  （4）What can we infer about the audience？

• 3．Fear is an emotion（情感） like others such as happiness，anger，hurt and sadness.We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond.Being afraid of fast cars，for example，is something that might protect us from harm.Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.
     Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs.Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others，and at times，the media.Many normal fears during the early years，like men with beards，or large dogs，disappear with age.Those fears relating to personal failure and ridicule （嘲笑） last through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.
     Children's fears are often trivial，but that doesn't mean we should pay no attention to them.They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child.Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.
     Research shows that as a child grows up，the center of his fears changes a lot.Things like divorce，a teacher who "shouted at me"，people with guns，bullies，big boys，or "making fun of me" top the list of childhood fears.
     We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening，but it's essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment.Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears.Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears.This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to handle.With all emotions，fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is common and can be dealt with.
  
  （1）According to Paragraph 2，we can know that fears in young children

  .
  A．only center on frightening animals
  B．a(chǎn)re not born but learned
  C．can make sure of their safety
  D．need special help to deal with
  （2）The underlined word "trivial" in the third paragraph probably means "

  ".
  A．common
  B．serious
  C．harmful
  D．small
  （3）From the passage we can learn that

  .
  A．children with similar fears can communicate easily
  B．children should avoid the media to reduce their fears
  C．fears can be judged according to the environment
  D．some childhood fears may have a lasting influence
  （4）What's the best title for this passage？

  
  A．Children's Fears.
  B．How to Overcome Children's Fears.
  C．The Kind of Children's Fears.
  D．The Bad Effects of Fears.

• 4．Malaria，the world's most widespread parasitic （寄生蟲引起的） disease，kills as many as three million people every year，almost all of whom are under five，very poor，and African.In most years，more than five hundred million cases of illness result from the disease，although exact numbers are difficult to assess（評估） because many people don't （or can't） search for care.It is not unusual for a family earning less than two hundred dollars a year to spend a quarter of its income on malaria treatment，and what they often get no longer works.In countries like Tanzania，Mozambique，and the Gambia，no family，village，hospital，or workplace can remain unaffected for long.
     Malaria starts suddenly，with violent chills，which are soon followed by an intense （強烈的）fever and，often，headaches.As the parasites multiply（增加），they take over the entire body.Malaria parasites live by eating the red blood cells they infect （感染）.They can also go into blood vessels in the brain.If it doesn't kill you，malaria can happen again and again for years.The disease passed on to humans by female mosquitoes（蚊子） infected with one of four species of parasite.Together，the mosquito and the parasite are the most dangerous couple in the history of the earth.Malaria has five thousand genes，and its ability to change rapidly to protect itself from attack and resist（抵抗） new drugs has made it nearly impossible to control.Studies show that mosquitoes are passing on the virus more frequently，and there are more outbreaks in cities with large populations.Some of the disease's spread is due to global warming.
     For decades，the first-choice treatment for malaria parasites in Africa has been chloroquine，a chemical which is very cheap and easy to make.Unfortunately，in most parts of the world，malaria parasites have become resistant to it.Effective medicines that help prevent resistance are already available，but they have been in short supply and are very expensive.If these drugs should fail，nobody knows what would come next.
  
  （1）According to paragraph 1，many people don't search for care because

  .
  A．they are too poor
  B．it is unusual to seek care
  C．they can remain unaffected for long
  D．there are too many people suffering from the disease
  （2）People suffering from malaria

  .
  A．have to kill female mosquitoes
  B．have their red blood cells infected
  C．have ability to defend parasites
  D．have sudden fever，followed by chills
  （3）Which of the following may be the reason for the wide spread of the disease？

  
  A．Its resistance to global warming.
  B．Its ability to pass on the virus frequently.
  C．Its ability to protect itself from attack and resist new drugs.
  D．Its outbreaks in cities with large populations.
  （4）It can be inferred from the passage that

  .
  A．the effective drugs are not easily available to most people
  B．no drugs have been found to treat the disease
  C．malaria has developed its ability to resist parasites
  D．nobody knows what will be the drug to treat the disease
