Bond had walked for only a few minutes when it suddenlyoccurred to him that he was being followed. There was no evidence for it except a slight headache and a little knowing the people near him but believed in his sixth sense and he at once stopped in front of the shop window he was passing and looked occasionally back along 46th street. Nothing but a lot of miscellaneous people moving slowly on the sidewalks, mostly on the same side as himself, the side that was back from the sun. There was no sudden movement into a doorway, nobody wiping his face with a handkerchief to avoid recognition, nobody bending down to tie a shoelace.
He went on and turned into the Avenue of the Americans, stopping in the-first doorway, the entrance to a woman's un-derwear store where a man in a blue hat with his back to him was examining the black face paints on a particularly realistic dummy (模型)
And then something grasped his arm and a voice came, "All right, Limey. Take it easy unless you want lead for lunch. "and he felt something press into his back just above the kidney. There was a tap as his fist was caught in the other man's left hand, and at the same time as the contact telegraphed to Bond's mind that there could have been no gun,
there came the well remembered laughter and the lazy voice saying, "No good, James. The angles have got you. '
Bond straightened himself slowly and for a moment he could only gaze into the smiling face of Felix Leiter with bland disbelief, his built-up tension (紧张) slowly relaxing.
"So you were doing a front tail, you bastard? ' he finally said.
1. What did the man mean by saying "Take it easy unless you want lead for lunch"?
A. Put up your hands.
B. Don't move or I'll shoot you.
C. If you want to have lunch, you must listen to me.
D. You go first slowly and we'll have lunch together.
答案: B 指导:从上下文知,Bond当时以为是枪顶着他旳后背,故推知本句决非本义.lead指子弹.

On Christmas morning, I went to the Cockhedge Mall. People there were all busy buying their last minute requirements. I needed to buy a birthday card for my son-in-law whose birthday is the 29th of December. Picking up a few more things as well as my cared I went to join the line for the express checkout which was for people who only had a few items in a basket and not a trolley load. This line was next to
the Customer Service desk.
Seemingly waiting quite a long time, I was jogged out of my thoughts by a voice behind me making comments on the things I bought.
It was so funny when I realized that she was describing the contents of my basket. The owner of the voice was a very pretty young lady. I said to her that I was going to buy a box of Christmas cookies but the only ones left were not to my liking. The lady told me that just opposite Cockhedge in Superdrug they had lots of cookies. I said, “I’m not going to bother now. I had enough of shops and I’m going home.”
The assistant from the Customer Service came across at this time saying “If there is anyone in the line with a few items in their basket, none of which needed to be weighed, I will check out their groceries at the desk.” Because I had the sprouts which needed to be weighted, the young lady accepted the offer and walked away waving goodbye.
Eventually my turn came at the checkout. I was walking away when I met my new friend once again who handed me a beautiful box of Christmas cookies. With a big hug she said “Hope you have a lovely Christmas.” She had been into Superdrug to buy me the cookies while I was still queuing in Cockhedge.
What a generosity to a stranger! I was so surprised you could have knocked me down with a feather. My Good Samaritan would never know what a joyful Christmas day I had with my family. Telling them this story, as we ate around the table, kept everyone spellbound.

Four Wonders of the Web
Google Works Miracles
GOOGLE(www. google. com)is a daily miracle to millions of people. If the Internet had only this very fast search engine,it would have Justified its existence many times over. It is the most popular search engine on the web with a 54%market share,ahead of Yahoo! You type almost anything,however unclear,into the space provided and in a second it has come up with hundreds of references. If knowledge is power,then Google commands the gateway
Yahoo Becomes Giant
YAHOO(www. yahoo. com)was the first wonder of the web:and in many respects, it still is. It started in January 1994 when two California graduate students,Jerry Yang and David Filo,started compiling(编译)a database of links,mainly for their personal use. But well before the end of the year, it had become recognizable as Yahoo we know today. In the past seven years,Yahoo had grown rapidly, partly through a long string of buys. Yahoo now includes almost everything you could want:emails,instant messages,chats,clubs,photo albums,and a lot more

Today’s children are the “result” of the modern society. Our parents have jobs that keep them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesn’t allow them to keep an eye on their children.
On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle”. As a child, you don’t know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If you don’t have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children.
Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They are given too much freedom by their families. This is their parent’s mistake. They ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.
For example it is a bad thing for a 17 – year – old child to go out in the evening on weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in
the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldn’t be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.
Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. Parents shouldn’t allow their children to spend money on whatever they want.
I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. The latter is more to be blamed!
53.The writer implies that parents’ busy lifestyle .
A.makes their children become independent
B.may lead to a tense parent – child relationship
C.is harmful to their children’s health
D.is likely to create a troubled generation
54.What does the underlined word “lenient” (in Para 2) mean?
A.Not responsible. B.Not strict. C.Unkind. D.Unfair.
55.It seems that the writer agrees that students .
A.should stay at home on weekends
B.can wear trendy clothes at school
C.had better wear school uniform at school
D.can be allowed to go out in the evenings
56.According to the writer, which of the following takes the primary responsibility for children’s problems?
A.The social environment. B.The educational system.
C.Each family. D.The school.

Far from the land of Antarctica (南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.
For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer. Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point. The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88°C and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05°C. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.
The scientists’ next research job was clear: Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.
Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein, or AFGP.
57. What is the text mainly about?
A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic.
B. A special fish living in freezing waters.
C. The ice shelf around Antarctica.
D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.
58. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
A. The seawater has a temperature of -1.88°C.
B. it loves to live in the ice-salt mixture
C. A special protein keeps it from freezing.
D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05°C.
59. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. A type of ice-salt mixture. B. A newly found protein.
C. Fish blood. D. Sugar molecule.
60. What does “glyco-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean?
A. sugar B. ice C. blood D. molecule
