The Internet has opened up a whole new on-line world for us to meet,chat and go where we’ve never been before.
But just as in face-to-face communication,there are some basic rules of behaviour that should be followed when on-line.The basic rule is simple:treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.
For anything you’re about to send:ask yourself,“Would I say this to the person’s face?”If the answer is no,rewrite and reread.Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.
If someone in the chat room is rude to you,your instinct（本能） is to fire back in the same manner.But try not to do so.You should either ignore the person,or use your chat software to block their messages.If it was caused by a disagreement with another member,try to fix the situation by politely discussing it.Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.
Everyone was new to the network once.Offer advice when asked by newcomers,as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate.When someone makes a mistake,whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer,be kind about it.If it’s a small mistake,you may not need to say anything.Even if you feel strongly about it,think twice before saying anything.Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else.
If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake,point it out politely.At the same time,if you find you are wrong,be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age,sex,and marital status.Unless you know the person very well,and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information,don’t ask such questions.

Music is an international language.The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.
Popular music in America is what every student likes.Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class,after class,and at lunch.Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the streets.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work.They also listen to the news about sports,the weather,politics,and activities of the American people.Most of the radio broadcast is music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money.They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in every state.Once the popular singer is heard throughout the country,young people buy his or her

tapes.Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer.Wherever the singer goes,all the young people want to meet him or her.Now the singer has become a national star.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans.One is called folk music.It tells stories about the common life of Americans.Another is called western or country music.This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching.Today,any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

When you stretch out in the sun you can do one of three things.
You can use no sun tan oil.You can use an ordinary sun tan oil.Or you can use Bergasol.
If you don’t use any sun tan oil at all when you’re in sun that is stronger than you’re used to,you will burn surprisingly quickly.If you use an ordinary sun tan oil you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree.How much you will do depends on the “sun protection-factor(系数) (SPF)number” on the bottle.
Some of these oils block out so many of the sun’s rays you can stay in the sun all day without burning—but you won’t go very brown,either.
Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary sun tan oil.But Bergasol oil also has a tan accelerator(加速剂) which comes from the oil of the Bergamot fruit.
It speeds up the rate at which the sun activates（激活）the skin cells that produce melanin. And it is melanin which gives the skin its brown colour.
So when you use Bergasol sun tan oil you go brown faster,and as the days pass the difference will become more and more obvious.
Unfortunately this special formulation isn’t cheap to prepare.So Bergasol is rather more expensive
2
than ordinary sun tan oil.
However the price looks more attractive as you do. Protection
Many people imagine that “cover-up” means you don’t get a tan.Nothing to show for your holiday.What a shame!
Not so.With “cover-up”,you can get brown if you want to.The point of cover-up is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun—the ones which,according to the experts,make your skin look older.
That’s what Solex Cover-up is all about—protection for your skin.It has a Sun Protection Factor of 8,which makes it suitable for anyone.
Find out how it works for you by consulting（咨询）the Solex Sun Chart.
n as slowly as you like.As gently as you like.And with much less
chance of peeling(脱皮).
Your tan will look better.Your skin will stay young longer.Solex Cover-up. SOLEX
Gentle tan...full protection.
64.The word “tan” which is used several times in the passage is closest in meaning to . A.brown B.protection C.light D.health 65.Both Bergasol and Solex serve to . A.treat various kinds of skin disease B.help people enjoy more sunshine
C.help people get sun tan without being burnt D.paint the skin with a brown color 66.What’s special about Bergasol?
A.Its price is more acceptable than that of any ordinary sun tan oil. B.It has a tan accelerator that makes the skin go brown faster.
D.It protects the skin from the harmful rays of the sun.
67.Which of the following decides how well your skin may be protected? A.The price. B.Melanin. D.SPF number. D
In 1997,Dolly the sheep was the first mammal to be cloned from a single cell.Since then scientists have been working to explore more possibilities in the cloning world.Recently Chinese scientists have also successfully cloned mammals such as an ox.
Cloning is making a genetic copy of something else.This might be copying just one cell,or it could be a whole animal.The biggest star of the cloning world is a sheep named Dolly.She is a copy of her mother.This means that she is the twin sister of her mother who was six years older and she did not have a father!
Our bodies are made up of cells,which hold information contained in DNA.Organisms(生物体) get their DNA from the mum and half from their dad.
We all grow from a single cell,which contains these two parts of DNA.It is called the egg cell.It divides millions of times to give rise to the millions of cells,which form our body.
Each cell has a copy of all the genetic information needed by the body.This means that each cell of our body has enough information to create other human beings like us.All we need is an egg cell.
3
In the process of cloning,the scientists take out the DNA from an animal cell and put it into an egg cell taken from another animal.Before implanting it,the DNA of the recipient(受体) cell is removed.
This is how Dolly’s life began—from a single cell taken from her mother.The DNA in her mother’s cell was taken out and put into the egg cell of another sheep.Five months later,Dolly was born. 68.What is the best title for the passage?
A.A Sheep Named Dolly B.DNA C.How do We Grow Up? D.What is Cloning? 69Which one is necessary to cloning?
A.An egg cell. B.Man’s DNA. C.Two cells from an animal. D.A sheep. 70.What does the underlined word “It” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.Two parts of the DNA. B.Our body. C.The egg cell. D.Dolly,the sheep. 71.Which is the correct order?
a.remove the DNA from the recipient animal b.take out the DNA from an animal cell
c.implant the egg cell into the recipient animal d.put the DNA into an egg cell taken from another animal

I live in Japan,where electronic items are a way of life,so it is no surprise that many students carry these little electronic dictionaries.Think of it.That huge,heavy paper dictionary that you used to see in your library looked like a building block in size and weight,yet someone has found a way to change all of that into a plastic box smaller than a video cassette tape.
E－dictionaries may be light and compact(简洁的),more so than any paper dictionary.They may even contain more words and expressions.It depends on which one you buy.To me,these are pretty much the limits to their advantages.
I think e－reasons.
E－dictionaries are much more expensive.In Japan,they cost as little as 10 000 yen(US$100) or as much as 40 000 yen,depending on how many functions you want (or think you want) and depending on how fashionable you are.My trusty Random House paper dictionary is copyrighted at 1995,cost me a mere US$12.95 plus tax.
E－dictionaries are more fragile(易碎的).Drop your paper dictionary.Go ahead.Hold it above your pieces.
E－dictionaries need batteries.Batteries are temperature sensitive.Batteries cost money,too.
E－dictionaries have keypads.Typing in the spelling of a word is harder and more
Let me add a statement about one that really troubles me.Sound.Little devices beep(嘟嘟声) when you press the buttons,but it is very disturbing to some people in a classroom situation or library.
Finally,let’s consider making corrections or additions.No dictionary is perfect,paper version or electronic.However,when you find something you’d
anything about it.You can pencil in some notes with the paper type.Similarly,if you learn a word that isn’t in the dictionary,a few notes of a pencil make it easy to increase its memory capacity.But not possible with a keypad model.And,for those students whose habit is to mark certain words with a highlight pen for ease of future reference,again,the paper dictionary wins out. 72.What’s the main idea of the text?
A.The advantages and disadvantages of e－dictionaries from the author’s point of view.
B.Electronic items are a way of life in Japan. C.It’s fashionable to carry little e－dictionaries. D.The bad effect of using e’dictionaries on students and teachers.

73.How many disadvantages of e－dictionaries does the author address in the text? A.4. B.6. C.8. D.10.
74.What does the author hate most of all the disadvantages?
A.Not possible to make additions. B.Wasting more time looking up words.
C.Too expensive to buy e－dictionaries and batteries. D.Making sound when pressing the buttons.
A.Containing more words and expressions. B.More light and compact to carry. C.Making corrections or additions for future reference. D.Costing less money.
