An explosion on Thursday killed one and injured 21 in a busy street in Tongren, Southwest China’s Guizhou Province.
The bomb was hidden in a rubbish bin in the city’s commercial hub（商业中心），where lots of shops and restaurants are concentrated.
The ear-splitting blast was heard around 12∶50 p.m.，said a local newspaper, citing witnesses. The power of the blast shattered（使粉碎）nearby shop windows and ripped the stainless steel rubbish can to pieces.

Lateral（横向的）thinking, first described by Edward de None in 1967, is just a few years older than Edward’s son. You might imagine that Caspar was raised to be an adventurous thinker, but Edward de Bone was so famous, Caspar’s parents worried that any time he would say something bright at school, his teachers might snap. “Where do you get that idea from?”
“We had to be careful and not to overdo it,” Edward admits. Now Caspar is at Oxford—which once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic(诵读困难). In fact, when he was applying to Oxford, none of his school teachers thought he had a chance. “So then we did several thinking sessions,” his father says, “using my techniques and, when he went up for the exam, he did extremely well.” Soon after, Edward de Bone decided to write his latest book Teach Your Child How to Think, in which he transforms the thinking skills he developed for brainstorming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share.
Thinking is traditionally regarded as something done in a logical order, and everybody knows that children aren’t very logical. So isn’t it an uphill battle, trying to teach them to think? “ You know,” Edward de Bone says,” if you examine people’s thinking, it is quite unusual to find faults of logic. But the faults of perception(知觉)are huge! Often we think ineffectively because we take too limited a view.
Teach Your Child How to Think offers lessons in perception improvement, of clearly seeing the implications of something you are saying and of exploring the alternatives.
69. What is TRUE about Caspar?
A. He first described lateral thinking. B. He is often scolded by his teachers.
C. He is Edward’s son D. He is an adventurous thinker.
70. Caspar succeeded in applying to Oxford because______.
A. he used in the exam the techniques provided by his father
B. he read the book Teach Your Child How to Think before the exam
C. he was careful and often overworked
D. his school teachers thought he had a chance
71. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Edward_______.
A. was prompted to study lateral thinking because his son was lightly dyslexic
B. once taught businessmen how to think before he wrote for parents and children
C. was likely to improve children’s logic with his book
D. gave a description of lateral thinking several years after his son was born
72. Lateral thinking refers to the following EXCEPT_________.
A. seeing the implications of what you are saying B. exploring the alternatives for what you are saying
C. improving one’s logic in thinking D. improving one’s perception in thinking

As thousands of overseas students do battle with the English language in schools across the UK, many face a struggle with a culture for which they are totally unprepared. Misunderstandings can occur, which, if not sorted out, can ruin a student’s trip.
Much of this is a result of false thinking and expectations of British families and the way they live. Last summer in a college in Kent, Ali, a Middle East student in his forties wrote before his arrival to request a family willing to discuss the day’s news, no meat in his food and no alcohol. Then, after his second day in England, his host rang the college to say he wouldn’t eat the food she’d cooked for him. In fact, he had bought some food and asked her to cook it for him.
The college solved the problem by Ali taking lunch and evening meals at the college, where he could try out the food by eating a little at a time, and only take breakfast with his host. And it worked! “They later got on like a house on fire,” said Tony, one of his British classmates. “He had just not got on with the food.” EFL (English as a Foreign Language) communities can be tightly connected — when a Japanese student was shot dead in the United States some years ago after mistakenly entering the wrong house in fancy dress on the way to a Halloween party, and did not understand the word “freeze!”, the US became a no-go area. After the event the Japanese stopped all their courses and the US was declared “unsafe”.
So concerned has the UK EFL industry become to improve students’ understandings about the British culture that the British Council carried out research among foreign students to determine what they felt were the most important factors in their stay. They found that, although EFL courses were heavily praised, what concerned students was the quality of host families and welfare during their stay.
The result of their study helped to produce a Homestay Code of Practice. Since its launch earlier this year, some 20,000 certificates have been sent out to host families who have signed the Code. It has also been sent to 1,000 overseas travel agents. The aim is to make it serve as an international quality assurance scheme.
73．We learn from the text that the problems foreign students have during their stay in England are mostly caused by ____.
A．their poor English level B．the British way of cooking
C．their unfamiliarity with the British culture
D．their misunderstanding of British families’ attitudes towards them
74．Ali didn’t eat the food in the host family because __________.
A．he didn’t get on well with his host B．he couldn’t eat the meat served
C．he didn’t like the way it was cooked D．he couldn’t come back from school on time
75．When Tony said that “they later got on like a house on fire”, most probably he meant __________.
A．Ali never touched the food his host cooked B．Ali and his host later became close friends
C．Ali often quarreled with his host family D．Ali left the host family and moved to live elsewhere
76．The example of a Japanese student is given in the text to show that __________.
A．America is a dangerous country B．Americans are unfriendly to foreign students
C．Japanese students are inadequate in their English
D．misunderstandings can occur between foreign students and native speakers
D
So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning , they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that“ reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.
Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.
Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private ,for learning is an occupation of the mind ,and that process is not open to public scrutiny.
If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable ,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest（探索）for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. ”
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher fulfil them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.
77．The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that ________.
A. it is one of the most difficult school courses
B. students spend endless hours in reading
C. reading tasks are assigned with little guidance
D. too much time is spent in teaching about reading
78．The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.
A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the students
B. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading
C. teachers can devise the most efficient system for reading
D. teachers can make their teaching activities observable
79．The underlined word“ scrutiny” most probably means“________”.
A. inquiry B. observation C. control D. suspicion
80．According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when ________.
A. children become highly motivated
B. teacher and learner roles are interchangeable
C. teaching helps children in the search for knowledge
D. reading enriches children’s experience
81．The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
B. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible
C. reading ability is something acquired rather than taught
D. reading is more complicated that generally believe

There is a new type of small advertisement becoming increasingly common in newspaper classified columns. It is sometimes placed among “situations vacant”, although it does not offer anyone a job, and sometimes it appears among “situations wanted”, although it is not placed by someone looking for a job either. What it does is to offer help in applying for a job.
“Contact us before writing application”, or “Make use of our long experience in preparing your curriculum vitae (简历), or job history”, is how it is usually expressed. The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service is, of course, a reflection on the current high levels of unemployment. It is also an indication of growing importance of the curriculum vitae (or job history), with the suggestion that it may now qualify as an art form in its own right.
There was a game when job seekers simply wrote letters of application. “Just put down your name, address, age and whether you have passed any exams”, was about the average level of advice offered to young people applying for their first jobs when I left school. The letter was really just for openers, it was explained. Everything else could and should be saved for the interview. And in those days of full employment the technique worked. The letter proved that you could write and were available for work. Your eager face and intelligent replies did the rest.
Later, as you moved up the ladder, something slightly more sophisticated (精密的,高级的) was called for. The advice then was to put something in the letter which would distinguish you from the rest. It might be the aggressive approach. “Your search is over. I am the person you are looking for,” was a widely used trick that occasionally succeeded. Or it might be some special feature specially designed for the job in view.
There is no doubt, however, that it is the increasing number of applicants with university education at all points in the process of engaging staff that has led to the greater importance of the curriculum vitae.
82．The new type of advertisement which is appearing in newspaper columns ________.
A．informs job hunters of the opportunities available
B．promises useful advice to those looking for employment
C．divides available jobs into various types
D．informs employers that people are available for work
83．Nowadays a demand for this specialized type of service has been created because _____.
A．there is lack of jobs available for artistic people B．there are so many top-level jobs available
C．there are so many people out of work D．the job history is considered to be a work of art
84．In the past it was expected that first-job hunters would _________.
A．write an informal letter giving their life history
B．pass some exams before applying for a job
C．have no qualifications other than being able to read and write
D．keep any detailed information until they obtained an interview
85．Later, as one went on to apply more important jobs, one was advised to include in the letter _________.
A．something that would attract attention to one’s application
B．a personal opinion about the organization one was typing to join
C．something that would upset the person reading it
D．a lie that one could easily get with telling

One Sunday morning, there were some people in Zhongshan Park. At a stand, a woman was buying an ice – cream when a young man behind her snatched her handbag away. She shouted: “Stop thief! He’s snatched my bag!” Hearing this, a few people began to run after him. There was an old man sitting quietly on a bench nearby. As the snatcher was running past him, the old man quickly picked up his umbrella and put it between the snatcher’s legs. The young man fell down on the ground. Soon two policemen came and caught him. The woman thanked the old man, and the people around praised the old man for his cleverness
