Ads, if forwarded by popular bloggers, will enjoy widespread Internet coverage. Therefore, it appears that running a popular micro blog and forwarding several ads per day is a financial rewarding career choice nowadays. However, in order to be successful, you need to ensure that your micro blog has a large number of followers. Launching a micro blogging sensation can be tough for rookies( 新手 )· In Zhao s opinion, it s not necessary to come up with a totally original micro blog. “ You can publish a popular post you have found in other online communities on your micro blog. But to become a sensation, you have to be the first one to publish the post,” said Zhao. Therefore, a micro blogger needs to be aware enough to sense a post s potential to become an online sensation. He or she also needs to be daring enough to publish potentially controversial posts or launch activities which could be risky. Running a popular micro blog is an exhausting job, both physically and mentally. Publishing ads also requires energy and commitment. In order to hunt for the most up-to-date, hot topics online, Zhao has to spend almost all of his spare time surfing the Internet. He often stays up late. 56. The best title of the passage is _. A. Micro Blogger Strikes Gold B. The powerful Micro Blog C. Zhao Cheng- a Post-90s D. How to Run a Popular Micro Blog 57. We can know from the passage that_. A. Zhao tries to forward as many ads as possible in his blog B. Zhao s parents once thought little of his micro-blog C. Zhao has given up to further his study in a university D. Zhao thinks it easy to launch a micro blogging sensation 58. According to the passage, enterprises like marketing on micro blogs because_. A. the price of advertising on micro blogs is much lower B. ads on micro blogs can be spread more widely C. young customers only pay attention to ads online D. it s much easier to advertise on micro blogs 59. Zhao Cheng often stays up late in order to_. A. forward ads on his micro blogs B. escape from his parents supervision C. collect proper topics for his micro blogs D. make up the time spend on micro blogs B August 17, 2011 Lauren, As the big weekend approaches I am more and more worried that I might break up during my toast so as a pre-emptive strike(先发制人 ) please accept this letter and gifts. My feeling about you and your marriage are personal and while I hope to share the feelings with those at the dinner, it s more important to me that you realize how much I love you and how proud I am of the amazing woman you have become. My memory for specifics is terrible but my memory for how precious you were as a child is clear. I loved cradling you in my arms in the morning when you awoke for a bottle, carrying your sleepy body over my shoulder when you were too tired to walk, tossing you high in the air in the pool, and reading kids books with you on my lap. From the first days you were quiet, beautiful, and kind. You were thoughtful, sensitive, caring and loving. You were and still are an angel. When I thin k of you as an adult, I think of your big heart. It s your heart that has led you to be a bright point of light causing millions of meals to be served to hungry kids. It is your heart that has led you to your vegetarian lifestyle. It is your heart that helps you care for us. For these reasons I have selected three hearts as a gift to you. One heart is a locket ( 吊坠 ) with a picture of you and me together. It s a reminder that of the men in your life I loved you first and will always love you, forever. The second heart is made of jade that has the Chinese character “ Fu” . Jade represents luck and “ Fu” means happiness. Third heart is just pretty and represents your beauty. Finally, the wedding will be amazing. I can t wait to see you in your beautiful dress. My hope is that the event will bring lasting memories. My hope is that your life is filled with joy. P . S. I can t wait to love your kids the way I love you. 60. The writer of the letter is Lauren s _. A. boyfriend B. father C. brother D. colleague 61. “ the big weekend” in the first paragraph refers to_.

Looking for a new weight loss plan? Try living on the top of a mountain. Mountain air contains less oxygen than air at lower altitudes, so breathing it causes the heart to beat faster and the body to burn more energy. Studies have found that athletes training at high altitudes tend to lose weight. Doctor Florian Lippl in Germany wondered how the mountain air would affect obese individuals if they weren t doing any more physical activity than usual. Lippl and his colleagues invited 20 obese men to an environmental research station about 300 meters below the summit of Zugspitze, a mountain around 2,970 meters near the Austrian border. This was no hiking expedition. They were allowed to eat as much as they liked. The men also gave blood so that researchers could test for hormones( 荷尔蒙 ) linked to appetite and obesity. At the end of the week, the men, whose weight starting out was 105 kilograms, had lost about 1.5kg on average. The men s blood pressure also dropped, which the researchers owed to weight lost. Exactly what caused the weight loss is uncertain. Loss of appetite is common at higher altitudes, and indeed the men ate significantly less than usual-about 700 calories fewer per day. Appetite loss at high altitudes could certainly be key, notes Damian Bailey, a physiologist, who himself recently lost 11 kg during a 3-month expedition to the Andes in Chile. Unfortunately, for the average person theres no treatment that can resemble living at high altitudes, says Lippl. He says, half-jokingly, “ If obese people plan their holidays, they might not go to the sea, but maybe to the mountains ” 64. The underlined word “ obese” in the first paragraph probably means “ _” . A. unhealthy B. swollen C. very fat D. weighty 65. Hormones were tested in the research because they could affect _. A. ones body weight B. ones blood pressure C. ones way of living D. ones heart-beating rate 66. What was found about the 20 obese men in the process of the research? A. What they eat was controlled. B. They took in fewer calories than usual. C. They lost appetite because of lack of physical activities. D. They were provided with a healthier diet than before. 67. Why does Damian Bailey agree with the idea of appetite loss at high altitudes? A. He experimented with the new weight loss plan in the Andes. B. He found no other reasons for his loss of weight in the Andes. C. He researched the related subject in the Andes. D. He lost much weight in the high-altitude Andes. D. Brown didn t give up. Instead, he kept looking. And he kept finding more of these strange and speedy stars, called hypervelocity stars. Hyper means “ above” and velocity has to do with speed. He and his team just found six more of these “ above speed” stars bringing the total to 16. And, he says, hes found even more, and is just waiting for the scientific community to confirm them. When he found the first hypervelocity star, Brown had a hard time believing his own results. He measured the star s speed to be about 1.6 million miles per hour. Thats fast enough to escape the galaxy and fly away into deep space. To make matters worse, the star wasn t flying around the galaxy, like most stars. Instead, it was flying out, like a pop fly that just keeps going up, up, up, out of the ballpark(活动领域 ) and out of sight. Not only was the star going faster than anyone had ever seen a star move, it was going in the wrong direction. “ I think we can say a lot more in five years than what we can say now, ” he says. “ The future of hypervelocity stars is boundless. ” 68. The stars have been described as strange because_. A. they are on the edge of the Milky Way B. they move around the galaxy we live in C. they travel too fast in the wrong direction D. they escape from the Milky Way into deep space 69. From what Brown says in the last paragraph, we can infer_. A. there is no end to learning about hypervelocity stars B. it is no use for people to learn about hypervelocity stars C. there is no possibility to research on hypervelocity stars D. it takes a few years before scientists kn
