Questions下列各are based on the following passage. The most promising effort in years to

restore fairness and hope tb the immigration system begins Wednesday, when the Obama administration will start accepting applications from yoking, undocumented immigrants who want to be shielded from deportation(驱逐出境) so they can be free to work and go to school. The program to halt deportations is limited, hedged by detailed rules and not to be confused with broad immigration reform, which is out of reach at a time when resentment against the undocumented runs high in Washington and in the states. But any progress away from indiscriminate immigration enforcement, and toward opening pathways to a fuller involvement in society, is worth noting and celebrating. Under the program, applicants must have been brought to the United States before turning 16, be under 31, have clean records and have lived here for at least the last five years. Those who are accepted will not be legalized, even if they are given permission to work. They will instead be granted two-year deferrals(延期) of deportation, which are renewable. By one estimate, 1.7 million of the countrys 11 million undocumented immigrants may qualify. Announced by President Obama in June, the program is not the legalization or path to citizenship that millions are longing for and deserve. Its simply a decision by the Department of Homeland Security, at President Obamas instruction, to get its enforcement priorities right focusing on removing criminals and others who threaten community safety, not the law-abiding, hard-working young people who pose no threat and cannot be blamed for their unauthorized status. There are two major worries as the program unfolds. One is whether Citizenship and Immigration Services, the agency that will run the program, can handle the administrative load. Alejandro Mayorkas, the director, says his agency is investing in staffing and training, helped along by the $ 465 fee charged to each applicant. The agency depends entirely on fees. The other fear is that applicants will fall prey to fraud. Immigration law is extremely complicated, which dishonest consultants, known as "notarios", take full advantage of. Applicants who are rejected have no right to appeal and will still risk deportation, especially those whose paperwork was falsified(伪造的). The citizenship agency needs to do all it can to educate applicants and prevent frauds. Then there will be the attacks from those who cannot stomach anything less than the ejection of every last immigrant who lacks legal status. This harshness is exemplified by Senator Jeff Sessions, Republican of Alabama, who denounced the program on Wednesday. "I cannot overstate the tragedy of this," he said, doing just that. His inability to distinguish "criminal aliens" from the young strivers the United States needs is the reason the country has been forced into administrative half-measures, rather than real legislative reform. According to the passage, the Obama administration will

A.protect undocumented immigrants from deportation

B.offer young immigrants free education and job training

C.undergo broad immigration reform. across the states

D.make progress toward fair immigration enforcement

The Bush administration is giving public school districts broad new latitude to expand the

number of single-sex classes, and even schools, in what is widely considered the most significant policy change on the issue since a landmark federal law barring sex discrimination in education more than 30 years ago.

Two years in making, the new rules, announced Tuesday by the Education Department, will allow districts to create single-sex schools and classes as long as enrollment is voluntary. School districts that go that route must also make coeducational schools and classes of "substantially equal" quality available for members of the excluded sex.

The federal action is likely to accelerate efforts by public school systems to experiment with single-sex education, particularly among charter schools. Across the nation, the number of public schools exclusively for boys or girls has risen from 3 in 1995 to 241 today, said Leonard Sax, executive director of the National Association for Single Sex Public Education. That is a tiny fraction of the approximately 93,000 public schools across the country.

"You're going to see a proliferation of these," said Paul Vallas, chief of schools in Philadelphia, where there are four single-sex schools and plans to open two more. "There's a lot of support for this type of school model in Philadelphia."

Until now, Mr. Vallas said, there had been a threat of legal challenge that had delayed, for example, a boys' charter school from opening in Philadelphia this September. New York City has nine single-sex public schools, most of which opened in the past four years.

While the move was sought by some conservatives and urban educators, and had backing from both sides of the political aisle, a number of civil rights and women's rights groups condemned the change.

"It really is a serious green light from the Department of Education to re-instituting official discrimination in schools around the country," said Marcia Greenberger, a co-president of the National Women's Law Center.

Under Title IX, the 1972 law that banned sex discrimination in educational institutions that receive federal funds, single-sex classes and extracurricular activities are largely limited to physical education classes that include contact sports and to sex education.

To open schools exclusively for boys or girls, a district has until now had to show a "compelling reason", for example, that it was acting to remedy past discrimination.

But a new attitude began to take 'hold with the passage of the No Child Left Behind Law in 2002 when women senators from both parties came out in support of same-sex education and asked the Education Department to draft guidelines to permit their growth.

The new rules, first proposed by the Education Department in 2004, are designed to bring Title IX into conformity with a section of the No Child Left Behind Law that called on the department to promote single-sex schools.

What is the requirement for the districts to create single-sex schools？

A．There should be coeducational schools.

B．There should be quality classes available to both sexes.

C．There should be voluntary enrollers in such schools.

D．There should be equal approach to both single-sex classes and coeducational classes.

Deep inside a mountain near Sweatwater in East Tennessee is a body of water known as the L

ost Sea. It is listed by the "Guinness Book of World Records" as the world's largest underground lake. The lost Sea is part of an extensive and historical cave system called Craighead Caverns.

The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian Nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called "the Council Room", many Indian artifacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons and jewelry.

For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.

Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.

According to the passage, the lost Sea is unique because it is ______.

A．part of a historical cave system

B．the biggest underground lake in the world

C．listed in the "Guinness Book of World Records"

D．the largest body of water in Tennessee

听力原文： Some luxury brands have always aimed exclusively at either men or women, but most are happy to promote their stores to serve both sexes. (33)Yet just as some educators believe that single-sex classrooms are better for learning, some luxury brands are finding that single-sex stores sell better. The trend of opening stores for men only took off two years ago. Now more brands are catching on.

Men can be very loyal customers, supporting their favorite brands more than women do, but they also tend to adopt a hunting attitude toward shopping. Men like to hunt, while women gather. (34)Men will set out on a shopping expedition with a clear, specific goal in mind, and once they've found what they want, they quickly leave the crowd. Women are content to spend hours searching, often with no clear goal. But give a man a retail environment where he feels at home--or even more comfortable than he does at home--and you'll keep him there longer, and almost certainly sell him more. Even luxury brands already strongly associated with menswear are paying more attention to their retail space, trying to create a private club environment.

The men-only concept store is likely to expand as luxury firms pursue male spending power in emerging markets, particularly in Asia. "Though things are slowly changing, traditionally the man has had the spending power in China," says Barker. (35)"And now that the rich Chinese customer isn't under pressure to hide his wealth, men are really treating themselves and visibly enjoying the fruits of their success."

(30)

A．Single-sex stores appeal to customers better.

B．Single-sex stores can't perform. well.

C．It is hard to arrange a single-sex store.

D．Kids will prefer to single-sex stores later.

听力原文：Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness.

听力原文： Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In between be does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he fears silence mere than anything else. Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person, and is number of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure. He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure.

The aim of conversation is, for the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito. But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.

Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears, though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an evening, during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time, they just prove themselves to be successful conservationalists.

(30)

A．To exchange ideas.

B．To prove their value.

C．To achieve success in life.

D．To overcome their fear of silence.

Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in still ness. In the i

nterval he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and there are few things of which he stands in more fear than of the absence of noise. Even his conversation is in great measure a desperate attempt to pre vent a dreadful silence. If he is introduced to a fellow mortal, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure, a worth less person, and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox. He knows that ninety-nine per cent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he longs to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure. The object of conversation is not, for the most part; to communicate ideas: it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz: there is even a buzz that is as exasperating as the continuous ping of a mosquito. But at a dinner-party one would rather be a mosquito than a mute. Most buzzing, fortunately, is agreeable to the ear, and some of it is agreeable even to the mind. He would be a foolish man, however, who waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbours. Those who despise the weather as a conversational opening seem to me to be ignorant of the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears. They have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had bad food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing at immense length, they just plume on themselves their success as conversationists. I have heard a young man holding up the monologue of a prince among modern wits for half an hour in order to tell us absolutely nothing about himself with opulent long-windedness. None of us except the young man himself liked it, but he looked as happy as if he had a crown on his head.

According to the author, conversation is by and large a grim effort to ______.

A．prevent men thinking they are failures

B．eradicate man's fear of silence

C．avoid silence

D．make a man feel he has value in other's eyes
