However, Windsor (the family name of the British Royal Family) and Middleton have been seen to represent a more modern, forward-looking nation.Nigel Baker, the British ambassador to Bolivia, believes that the royal wedding is “about modern Britain”. “The estimated 2 billion spectators across the world will see that Britain is one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse nations in the world, home to 270 nationalities speaking 300 different languages, founded on tolerance and respect for difference,” wrote Baker on his blog.According to Baker, the wedding could help viewers to see “why Britain is one of the most dynamic and creative countries in the world”: The television on which most people watched the event was invented by John Logie Baird, a Briton, and the World Wide Web that broadcast the event to millions more was invented by another Briton, Tim Berners-Lee.The guests who attended the wedding ceremony gave more than a few clues as to the nature of modern Britain. David and Victoria Beckham represent Britains obsession (着迷)with football and celebrity.Leaders from different religious backgrounds supported Bakers comments on the multicultural nature of modern British society.Before the wedding, David Elliott, arts director of the British Council China, agreed that the wedding would be a showcase for modern Britain: “I think, and hope, that it (modern British influence) would be values like openness, multiculturalism, creativity, sense of humor and the traditional British sense of fair play,” he said.Furthermore, events such as the Olympics in London in 2012 may also increase peoples sense of Britishness.According to a poll published in Daily Telegraph, more than a third of people in the UK admitted they felt “very British” when watching the Olympics.51. What is the point of the article?A. To introduce Prince Williams wedding arrangements in detail.B. To comment on the significance of the royal wedding.C. To question the relevance of the royal family in modern British society.D. To explain why the royal wedding is linked with the 2012 Olympics.52. What can be concluded from the article?A. Some say that the royal wedding is a reflection on modern Britain.B Some think the royal wedding shows Britains multiculturalism and sense of fair play.C. About 2 billion people across the world will see the wedding ceremony online.D. Britons are obsessed with football due to the influence of David Beckham.53. Why is the inventor of the World Wide Web mentioned?A. To inform readers about some well-known British inventors.B. To point to the importance of the World Wide Web for the wedding.C. In support of the idea that Britain is a nation of creative and original people.D. To encourage people to watch the wedding on the Internet.54. According to the article, both the 2012 Olympics and the royal wedding .A. have increased the British sense of national identityB. have promoted traditional British valuesC. represent a more modern BritainD. have encouraged the interest of Britons in FootballBThere is a boy called Bill in my gym class who has unbearably yellow teeth that almost make everyone feel unpleasant. Recently another boy told Bill that he should “go Ajax” his teeth. Bill was crushed. If the other boy had been thinking, he would have realized that there is a better way to handle such a situation. He could have dealt with it with tact. He could have showed this hurtful truth in a more careful, sensitive waythats “tact”. If a person isnt sensitive to anothers feelings, there is no way he or she can be tactful. Yesterday, my 5-year-old brother proudly announced that he had cleaned the screen on our television set. Unfortunately, he used furniture polish, which produced an oily film on the television screen. My mother smiled arid thanked him for his effortsand then showed how to clean the screen properly. Her sensitivity enables my brother to keep his self-respect. Yet, sensitivity alone does not make tact. “Tactfulness” also requires “truthfulness”. Doctors, for example must be truthful. If a patient has just been disabled in an accident, a tactful doctor will tell the truthbut express it with sensitivity. The doctor may try to give the patient hope by telling them curing techniques under study or about advanced equipment now available. Doctors must use tact with patients relatives as well. Instead of bluntly saying, “Your husband is disabled,” a doctor might say, “Im sorry, but your husband has lost feeling in his legs and. . .”Tact should not be confused with trickery. Trickery occurs when a nurse is about to give a patient an injection（注射） and says, “This wont hurt a bit. ” Instead of trickery, the nurse might guarantee the patient that the discomfort of the injection is a small thing compared to the benefits of it. It would also be thoughtful for the nurse to tell the patients about some of these benefits. Tact is a wonderful skill to have, and tactful people are usually admired and respected. Without tact our society would become an intolerable place to live in. 55. The underlined word “crushed” in the first paragraph probably means . A. surprised B. cheated C. regretful D. painful56. According to the author, his mothers praise for the brother is .A. sensitive and tactful B. sensitive but not tactful enoughC. truthful but not tactful enough D. sensitive but trickish57. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A B C D（The numbers stand for the paragraphs）CThe crisis(危机) at Japans Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear(核) energy center caused by the terrible earthquake has raised questions about the future of the nuclear energy industry. Arjun Makhijani is president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in the United States. He says the disaster(灾难)in Japan is historic. This week, the chairman of Americas nuclear agency said there is little chance that harmful radiation(辐射) from Japan could reach the United States. Gregory also said America has a strong program in place to deal with earthquake threats. No new nuclear power centers have been built in the United States since nineteen seventy-nine. That was when Americas worst nuclear accident happened at the Three Mile Island center in Pennsylvania. The accident began to turn public opinion against nuclear energy. At present, about twenty percent of electricity in the United States comes from nuclear energy.German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Germany would close seven nuclear power centers while energy policy is reconsidered. The European Union is planning to test all centers in its twenty-seven member nations. Developing nations are less willing to slow nuclear expansion. China said it will continue with plans to build about twenty-five new nuclear reactors（反应堆）. And India, under a cooperation agreement with the United States, plans to spend billions on new centers in the coming years. Nuclear reactors supply fourteen percent of global electricity. Nuclear energy is a clean resource, producing no carbon gases. But radioactive waste is a serious unresolved issue. So is the presence of nuclear power centers in earthquake areas like the one near Bushehr, Iran. 58. We can learn from the text that America . A. experienced a terrible nuclear accident 32 years agoB. has a strong program to deal with radiation dangerC. depends heavily on nuclear energy to produce electricityD. will check all the reactors before cooperating with India59. According to the text, which country will be most likely to have a similar disaster? A. German. B. Iran. C. India. D. China. 60. How does the author seem to feel about the future of nuclear energy?A. Satisfied. B. Pleased. C. Wordless. D. Surprised. 61. The best title of the text is . A. Various Opinions on Japans Nuclear Disaster B. Japans Disaster is Likely to Run out of Control C. America Feels Great Concern for Japans Nuclear CrisisD. Japans Disaster Throws Doubt on Nuclear Energy IndustryDIn a few years, you might be able to speak Chinese, Korean, Japanese, French, and English and all at the same time. This sounds incredible, but Alex Waibel, a computer science professor at USs Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and Germanys University of Karlsruhe, announced last week that it may soon be reality. He and his team have invented software and hardware that could make it far easier for people who speak different languages to understand each other.One application, called Lecture Translation, can easily translate a speech from one language into another. Current translation technologies typically limit speakers to certain topics or a limited vocabulary. Users also have to be trained how to use the programme.Another prototype(雏形机) can send translations of a speech to different listeners depending on what language they speak. “It is like having a simultaneous translator right next to you but without disturbing the person next to you,” Waibel said.Prefer to read? So-called Translation Glasses transcribe(转录) the translations on a tiny liquid-crystal(液晶) display(LCD) screen.Then theres the Muscle Translator. Electrodes capture the electrical signals from facial muscle movements made naturally when a person is mouthing words. The signals are then translated into speech. The electrodes could be replaced with wireless chips implanted in a persons face, according to researchers.During a demonstration held last Thursday in CMUs Pittsburgh campus, a Chinese student named Stan Jou had 11 tiny electrodes attached to the muscles of his cheeks, neck and throat. Then he mouthed without speaking aloud a few words in Mandarin(普通话) to the audience. A few seconds later, the phrase was displayed on a computer screen and spoken out by the computer in English and Spanish: “Let me introduce our new prototype.”This particular gadget(器械),when f
