A ★★★
Nowadays, people in China are increasingly interested in celebrating foreign festivals, especially those western festivals.
A survey conducted recently by sina. com. showed that among the 18,222 people surveyed 63.90% said celebrating Christmas is just another way of recreation, nothing serious while 17.85% surveyed considered the festival as a fashion act, showing they were not “out”. These two parts clearly indicate the general opinion of the young. 10.45% people involved said the celebration of a religious western festival with so much enthusiasm is absolutely ridiculous pursuit of foreign goodness. Only 7.80% of people define Christmas as a kind of festival colonization(殖民).
The arising of celebrating foreign festivals clearly has something to do with the advancement of China’s economy. In my point view, Christmas and other festivals celebrated in China have
difference from the origin. They have lost their religious background and turned into a big occasion to have fun and enjoy life. Shop owners’ pockets are filled, the public’s hunger for happiness is filled, and that is enough. Foreign festivals in China are more like carnivals giving people pleasure and enjoyment.
The crisis of traditional Chinese festivals that are losing their attraction may be linked to the culture tradition and background of the festivals. Most Chinese festival culture is related more or less to real life. “The country is based on its people while the people are relied on their food”.
But the western culture shows much of romance. Some festivals have their religious background while others have much to do with culture and people. At this point, food seems to be too plain. Flowers and chocolates are more welcomed.
Foreign festivals in China are celebrated for fun. They give people opportunities to relax and celebrate, to show appreciation and gratefulness. The acceptance of foreignn festivals generally depends on the openness of the public, the familiarity with the western culture, and most importantly, on people’s economic status.
41．From the survey we know that among the people surveyed ______. A．most think celebrating foreign festivals is ridiculous
B．many fear that traditional Chinese festivals will disappear soon
C．some think that celebrating foreign festivals is a sign of foreign goodness chasing D．half think celebrating foreign festivals makes people not go out of fashion 42．The writer thinks that foreign festivals celebrated in China ______. A．have lost their religious background B．are the same as those celebrated in the West C．can give more fun than traditional Chinese festivals D．may reduce the hunger of public people
43．What is the main difference between foreign festivals and traditional Chinese ones? A．Foreign festivals can make Chinese shop owners’ pockets full quickly. B．The food at foreign festivals is too simple. C．Chinese festivals always have something to do with culture. D．Foreign festivals are romantic while traditional Chinese ones are connected with reality. 44．Which of the following may NOT be the reason why so many people accept foreign festivals? A．People can relax themselves. B．People can show their thanks to others.
C．Foreign festivals have longer histories than Chinese ones. D．People have known more about the western culture.
B ★★★★
Nanotechnology is a fashionable word these days. The name “nano”(纳米) comes from the size of molecules, which are measured in nanometers—or one billionth of a meter. Through operating the atoms and molecules, scientists can change the nature of common materials and even create new materials that have new properties.
But scientists are concerned about its possible risks to our daily lives.
Clothing merchants claim their nanocloth keeps our bodies warmer in winter, saving us from needing thick coats. Vitamin companies boast their nanopills are easier to absorb. Home decoration companies suggest you use their nanopaint, which has no smell, is waterproof, and free from poisonous substances.
Nanomaterials are making our lives better, its creators say. The US National Science Foundation predicts nanotechnology research will grow into a US $－trillion industry over the next 10 years. But relatively little is known about the potential health and environmental effects of the tiny particles. Just atoms wide, they are small enough to penetrate cells easily in lungs, brains and other organs. US bestseller “Prey”， written by Michael Crichton, paints a doomsday in which a group of tiny nanomachines escapes the lab and threatens to take control of humanity.
Studies have shown that some nanoparticles can be poisonous to animal cells. There are fears that exposure can cause breathing problems, since nanoparticles could be taken in through the nose, causing unknown problems to brain cells. Scientists also fear that nanoparticles placed on the skin could damage DNA. “No one knows, and that’s the problem，” said Pat Mooney, director of the
[
ETC Group. “People are rubbing them on the skin as sunscreens and as cosmetics.”
Mooney’s group is calling for products such as sunscreen, that are directly absorbed into the body to be_taken_off_the_shelf until they’re proved safe. 45．What do you think is nanotechnology is?
A. It is a fashionable technology that operates the atoms and molecules. B. It is a fashionable technology that can be used to create DNA.
C. It is a fashionable technology that is created by a scientist named Nano. D. It is a fashionable technology that combines chemistry with physics. 46．What benefits can nanotechnology bring to us except________.
A. It can allow us to be free from thick coats by wearing clothes made of nanocloth. B. It can allow us to create more new materials to meet the need of our modern society. C. It can help us to take control of the doomsday.
D. It can help us to decorate our homes more environmentally friendly. 47．Studies have made it clear that________. A. exposure to nanoparticles can damage DNA
B. rubbing nano cosmetics on the skin can help control skin diseases C. all nanoparticles can’t be poisonous to animal cells
D. the nanoparticles have bad effects on health and environment
48．What the underlined part “be taken off the shelf” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Mooney’s group recommends that consumers to buy nano products such as sunscreen on the shelf.
B. Mooney’s group suggests that nano products such as sunscreen win a great success on the shelf. C. Mooney’s group suggests nano products such as sunscreen be sold on shelf instead of on the street.
D. Mooney’s group suggests nano products such as sunscreen be proved safe before they are sold.
