Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual name because she wants to be different.
People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or that have special sound. They chose the “new name” for themselves instead of the name their parents gave them when they were born.
Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country.
In many countries, a woman changes her family name to her husband”s after she gets married. But today, many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband”s. Sometimes, women use their own name in some situations（情况）and their husband”s in other situations. And some use both their own name and their husband”s.

The students in America usually begin high school at the age of 13 or 14. Some leave at the age of 16. But most finish the 4-year high school study. They do not get their first full-time work or begin college studies until they are 17 or 18 years old.
The high school day is about 7 hours long. Part of the day is made into classes of about 50 minutes long. The students have lunch in the middle of the day. American students study English, history, math, science, art and languages. Some also learn job skills. They can learn how to use a computer or how to mend a car. Other students may learn by working in an office, a hospital or other places one day a week.
Jean Wilton Anderson is 16 years old. She lives with her parents and 2 younger brothers in Bethesda, Maryland, near Washington D.C. Jean studies at Whitman High School. There are about 1500 students at the school. Most of them will go up to colleges.
Jean wakes up early every morning. She begins school at about 7:30. This is her third year of high school. Every day she takes classes to learn English, world history, physics and trigonometry. （三角）She also has a class about different religions（宗教）. And she plays the violin in music classes.

Then she starts her homework. She also spends a lot of time talking on the telephone with her friends. Students in America have their way of talking. They use the word “like” all the time.

Perhaps the most famous rare（珍稀）animal is the panda. Twenty years ago it was nearly extinct（灭绝的）. Now, its numbers are growing again. It is even a symbol for wildlife conservation（保存，保护）. But many other species have not been as lucky as the panda. Some are already extinct. Today, many more are in serious danger. This is because man hunts them and destroys their habitat. Is it too late to save wildlife?
A serious habitat problem arises（出现）because of pollution or opening new lands. Habitants take many years to grow again. When the wild animals lose their homes, the natural balance is also changed. If one animal, bird, or insect disappears, all the others suffer, too.
This is what is happening in the forests of South America. Africa and Asia. Habitats and animals are disappearing in Europe, too. Since 1947 in Britain, for example, 50% of the woods, low wet land, and 95% of meadows have disappeared. And what has taken the place of these green, natural places? Houses, farms, cities, streets, roads, and factories. Because of this (and pollution too) several British species are dying.
Then, what is the solution? There is only one way to save wild animals and wild habitats---conservation. This means man should protect animals in danger by establishing law, opening more national parks, building fewer new roads, planting more forests, and cutting pollution. If not, many wild animals will soon have just one habitat---the zoo!
（ ）59. Why are many more animals in danger? Because _________.
A. the natural balance has changed
B. they are not as lucky as the panda
C. they are losing their homes
D. the places where they live are being destroyed
（ ）60. Another word which can be used in place of “habitat” is ________.
A. a natural home of animals or plants B. custom
C. conservation D. trees
（ ）61. It is implied（暗指的）that ________.
A. if the animals” habitats are destroyed, they will grow up soon
B. the zoo is the best habitat for the world”s animals
C. the more new roads are built, the fewer habitats animals will have
D. pandas are the lest lucky among the animals in the world
八. 任务型阅读（8分）
Children are by nature curious and energetic, and without proper guidance（指导）. It is easy for them to do things that are obviously dangerous. Experimenting with smoking is one of the most common of these dangers.
Tobacco（烟草）use among children has long been a problem in many countries around the world, including China. But even though people began growing concerned about it years ago, the problem remains unsolved. Presently, about 30 percent of children in China have at least experimented with smoking. One middle school student frankly admitted to us why he smoked.
“We smoke mostly because we are curious about it. Besides, our parents also smoke. They set an example for us. Sometimes, we are forced to smoke by bullies. You know, they will beat those who don”t obey them.”
| The first paragraph tells us that one of the most common dangers is | 62. __________________________ |
| Make a list of reasons why children smoke | They are curious about it. 63. __________________________ 64. __________________________ |
| Think of some other things that are bad for children”s health besides smoking. | 65. __________________________ |

Have you ever done something stupid that made you feel so embarrassed that you wished you could just disappear? Well, that”s exactly how I felt, one cold Saturday morning last autumn.
I had gone to town to do some shopping, and as I was walking through the park on my way home to the stop, it suddenly began to rain. I ran into a nearby phone box as quickly as I could since I didn”t have an umbrella. It was raining heavily, but it was one of those short autumn showers that don”t last long, so I decided to stay in the phone box until it stopped.
A few moments later. I saw a young man walk up to the phone box, wearing a yellow raincoat and holding a tool box. I didn”t want to go out into the rain. so I picked up the phone and pretended I was talking to someone. I thought the man would go away, but he didn”t. He just waited patiently in the rain, watching me wave my hands about and act as if I was deep in conversation.
Luckily, the rain began to stop after about ten minutes. “OK, Mum,” I said loudly into the phone. “I”ll see you later. Bye!” I put the phone down. Picked up my shopping bag and stepped out of the phone box. “I”m sorry I took so long, ” I said to the man.
“Oh, I don”t want to use the phone, ” he replied with a smile. “I”ve just come to repair it. It”s out of order, you see. ” I felt myself go bright red in the face and I hurried away with my head down, feeling a complete fool. That was certainly one of the most embarrassing moments of my life!
