18、eed to encourage a better understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims, to promote respect for Muslim cultures and to show how culture creates the pathways that connect us all together. The program launched with a visit by the Festivals patron(赞助人 ), the Prince of Wales, to the exhibition “Palace a

19、nd Mosque” in Sheffield and since then there have been more than 100 events that have ranged from a Somali community day in Cardiff at the National Museum of Wales to a late-night Dance with Radio Tarifa (from Spain) and Dimi Mint Abba (form Mauritania) in the Royal Albert Hall and from a home-grown

21、gh arts collaborations(协作 ) and build on the extensive network of local, national and international partners that Festival has created.

A a website B a newspaper C a book D a magazine 答案： 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 A Researchers have found more evidence tha

25、t suggests a relationship between race and rates of lung cancer among smokers. A new study shows that black people and Native Hawaiians are more likely to develop lung cancer from smoking. It compared their risk to whites, Japanese, Americans and Latinos. The study, however, found almost no racial o

26、r ethnic differences among the heaviest smokers. These were people who smoked more than thirty cigarettes each day. Other comparisons have shown that blacks are more likely than whites to get lung cancer from smoking. But the scientists say few studies have compared the risks among Native Hawaiians,

27、 Asians and Latinos. Researchers at the University of Southern California and the University of Hawaii did the new study. The New England Journal of Medicine published the findings. The eight-year study involved more than 180,000 people. They provided details about their tobacco use and their diet a

28、s well as other information. They included current and former smokers and people who never smoked. Almost 2,000 people in the study developed lung cancer. Researchers say genetics might help explain the racial and ethnic differences. There could be differences in how peoples bodies react to smoke. B

29、ut environmental influences, including the way people smoke, could also make a difference. African-Americans and Latinos in the study reported smoking the fewest cigarettes per day. Whites were the heaviest smokers. But the scientists note that blacks have been reported to breathe cigarette smoke mo

30、re deeply than white smokers. This could fill their lungs with more of the chemicals in tobacco that cause cancer. Many researchers disagree not only about the effect of race on the risk of disease, but even about the meaning of race. Yet scientists know that some diseases affect different groups di

31、fferently. And some drug companies have begun to develop racially targeted medicines. Last June, the United State Food and Drug Administration approved a drug designed to treat heart failure in black patients. The name is BiDil. The agency called it “a step toward the promise of personalized medicin

32、e”. 【小题 1】 Which of the following orders is right from higher to lower risk of having lung cancer A Whites-Native Hawaiians. B African-Americans-Latinos C Asians-Native Hawaiians D African-Americans-Hawaiians 【小题 2】 From the passage, researchers agree that it is _ that may probably determine blackpe

33、oples risk of lung cancer. A the bigger amount of smoking than the white B the living style or habit of the blacks to form C the depth of cigarette smoke into their lungs D the physical strength to react to cigarette smoke 【小题 3】 The subjects that the smoking researchers investigate are made up of _

34、. A heavy smokers in America B the black and white people C the Asians and Hawaiians D smokers and non-smokers 【小题 4】 The production of BiDil is referred to in the last paragraph in order to _. A explain different races react to some diseases differently B tell the readers that racial differences ex

35、ist in smokers C show a big step people have taken in the medicine area D support the idea that it is easy for blacks to have cancers 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 A Uncle Tom gave little Vicki Black a birthday gift one week before her birthday. He told her not to open it until her birthday.

36、 She knew her mother wouldnt tolerate any disrespect to the kind man who helped them out after Vickis father passed away. Besides, Vicki didnt want Uncle Tom to get angry. But little Vicky didnt want to just hold it and guess what was in it. After all, she looked forward to his coming to show her in

37、teresting things, like how to turn an old sock into a doll. All the day, Vicki couldnt stop thinking about the gift. While her teacher was giving a lecture Vicki sat still in her seat, drawing paper dolls inside the box. When school was done, she raced home. Walking into the room, again, she shook t

38、he present, but she heard nothing. Holding her breath, she opened the box and looked inside. Seconds later, she cried. When Mrs. Black saw the box, she said angrily, “Didnt I tell you to leave it alone ” Vicki sobbed and said, “Mommy, you dont understand.” “Dont cry to me. You have missed everything

39、 now, just because you couldnt wait,” Mrs. Black accused. “What will Uncle Tom think now ” “Uncle Tom gave me nothing,” Vicki cried and handed the empty box to her mother. “He played a trick on me.” Mrs. Black said doubtfully, “Uncle Tom is not like that. You must have dropped it.” Vicki kept crying

40、. Only a rapid knock on the door made the house quiet. It was Uncle Tom. He looked at the empty box. “You have already done it I told you to wait for your birthday.” “You didnt give me a gift.” Fresh tears filled her eyes. “I try to give you something. I know your birthday is a special day. I tell m

41、yself to give you something valuable to last your whole life. I think hard and get the idea to give you an important lesson. If you open it on birthday, I see you learn. Then I will make a big party to celebrate. Maybe next year you listen and then you will understand the gift better. Vickis cheeks

42、flushed. 【小题 1】 We can learn from the text that Vicki_. A often received gifts from her father B expected Uncle Tom to give her a doll C was sad because of her fathers death D liked and respected Uncle Tom 【小题 2】 What do the underlined words “done it” refer to A Guessed the result B Opened the box C

44、1】 D 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 D We like to consider ourselves the superior race, and we are. Its true that we are getting to know more and more, and we actually live in “the information age”. Our human vanity(虚荣心 ) makes us believe that we really have to know everything! Surprisingly, we do not have

45、 this ability. The question “what is happening in the Bermuda Triangle” is the very proof. Where is the Bermuda Triangle located The mysterious triangle is believed to be situated between Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico, where too many unusual events have happened. On December the 5th 1945, five U.

46、S. military planes took off from Florida on a clear day only to disappear over Bermuda. Furthermore, some other disappearances took place; in 1947, an American C54 plane simply disappeared at 100 miles from Bermuda; at 80 miles, a Star Tiger plane disappeared in 1948. Even Columbus had trouble in Be

47、rmuda. Some of his journals were about the strange happenings there: “the waters are changing their colors” and “compasses are going wild”. Maybe its why it is called the Devils triangle or the Atlantic cemetery. Many hypotheses were stated in order to explain the strange events. In spite of these a

48、ttempts, the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle remains unsolved. Some people get to say that maybe aliens are involved in it. Other imaginative scientists relate the happenings in Bermuda to Einsteins theory, saying that the missing ships and planes are translated to another dimension of space and time and taken into another world. Maybe we will just have to wait to go to Heaven and ask the One who made it. The answer will surely be a satisfying one! 【小题
