Jess really felt very happy. When he arrived at his seat in the classroom that morning, he found an invitation on his desk. It was from several of his classmates asking him to join them on a camping trip. This was the first time he was asked to join in an out-of- school activity. Why were they asking him now? Nobody seemed to like him. In fact, he had been so lonely that he drowned his feeling with food. As a result, he had put on a lot of weight, and this gave the kids something more to make fun of him.

 Cindy, who was standing near Jess when he read the invitation, went out quickly to tell the others that the trick had worked. Everyone was pleased that Jess thought that was true. But there was no camping trip. The whole thing was made up.

At first, Cindy thought it was fun. But later, when Jess told her that he was going to buy a sleeping bag with his saving, Cindy had a second thought.

All around us buildings shook. We decided to leave the town ... We stopped once we had left the buildings behind us... The carts were moving on opposite directions, though the ground was perfectly flat, and they wouldn't stay in place even with their wheels blocked by stones.

In addition, it seemed as though the sea was being sucked backwards, as if it were being pushed back by the shaking of the land. Certainly the shoreline moved outwards, and many sea animals were left on dry sand.

Behind us were frightening dark clouds that opened up to show fire--like lightening, but bigger... Not long after that the cloud reached down to the ground and covered the sea. Now came the dust, though still thin. I looked back.. A dense cloud appeared behind us, following us like a flood pouring across the land. Then a darkness came that was not like a moonless or cloudy night, but more like being in a closed and unlighted room. You could hear women and children crying, men shouting. Some were calling for parents, others for children;they could only recognize them by their voices.

Darkness and ashes came again, a great weight of them. We stood up and shook the ash off again and again, otherwise we would have been covered with it and crushed(压垮)by the weight.

At last the cloud became thinner and thinner until it was no more than smoke or fog. Soon there was real daylight. The sight that met our still terrified eyes was a changed world, buried in ash like snow.

“King Kong” is a movie about an adventure on an island called Skull, where an oversize gorilla named Kong falls in love with a blonde beauty.

It has been 72 years since the story was first brought to the screen. But the latest movie version is a box office hit in the US. Every 10- year- old boy knows Kong, and his image is used to sell everything from insurance to snacks.

So what is it that makes the story attractive to generations of Americans?

Set in the Great Depression of the 1930s, the film follows New York actress Ann Darrow, who is forced to act as a leading lady in a movie. She was taken to the Skull Island, where she was caught by the aboriginals, who want to sacrifice her to King Kong, a gorilla. But instead of eating Ann, King Kong saves her. He is captured and dragged back to New York. There he bursts free and climbs the Empire State Building in search of Ann.

Why did King Kong appear in 1933 and why is he back now?

In 1933 a worldwide economic depression threw the future into doubt. “The monster represents American workers' feelings at being caged by forces beyond their control,” says Gerald Molyneaux, the biographer of Charlie Chaplin.

Now, once again, Americans worry about their future in an age of terror, threatened by the presence of al-Qaida (基地组织).

But some people, on the other hand, see the movie just as what it is.

“I am confident the story is not any type of social or political symbol,” says artist Dave Dorman, creator of the cover illustrations for the new King Kong comic books. “Sometimes an ape is just an ape.”

68. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the movie?

A. The first movie called “King Kong” appeared 72 years ago.

B. The latest “King Kong” movie is very popular in the US.

C. The movie is not well received by American girls.

D. The image of King Kong can be seen on many products.

69. Ann Darrow is kidnapped because _______.

A. she is attractive                        

B. she has been followed

C. moviemakers want to sacrifice her to King Kong   

D. she is needed in a movie

70. King Kong climbs the Empire State Building _______.

A. to look for Ann                       

B. just for fun

C. to enjoy the sight of New York           

D. to capture the movie makers

71. What is Dave Dorman's opinion about King Kong’s popularity?

A. King Kong reflects American’s feelings.    

B. The movie is only a made - up story

C. Americans doubt their future in an age of terror.

D. He doesn't believe the story at all.

 How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian(营养专家)Barhara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.

“Go for nutrient-dense foods,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice—the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient-dense ones are so superior,” she emphasizes.

Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life—it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.

According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.

“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat—they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match, the spark, for the fuel,” she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions(比例). And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”

72. From Paragraph 1, we know that working women .      

A. think cooking is especially complicated

B. do not share the same views with registered dietitians

C. are busy and not interested in cooking    

D. are likely to eat healthfully

73. Orange juice is different from orange drink in that       .

A. it contains only a small percentage of real juice

B. it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real oranges

C. it is largely orange colored sugar water 

D. it produces nothing but calories

74. In Paragraph 4, “a fruitless search” means      .

A. an effort with no results      

B. a search for a diet without fruits

C. a research on fruitless diet     

D. a diet serving as medicine

75. By “if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless”, the author means      .

A. carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to support a human life

B. vitamins and minerals are virtually of no value

C. carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and minerals

D. without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no use
