Most of the guests in Brington’s Grand Hotel were asleep. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher , however, was still at work in the Napoleon Suite at 3 a. m., preparing her keynote address to the annual Party conference of Britain’s Conservative Party. “I just turned to do one final paper,” she said later. “And then it went off.” A deadly bomb, planted by the Irish Republican Army , ripped through the upper loors of the Victorian era hotel. Thatcher was not injured, but the toll of the attack was steep: 4 people killed and 31 injured.
It was the latest act of savagery(野蛮行为) in the 12 years since the IRA first took its campaign of terror across the Irish Sea into Britain. It was also a chilling escalation(升级)of the organization's crusade(运动): never before has the outlawed army tried to murder a British prime minister. After the attack the IRA issued a statement leaving no doubt that it was ready to raise the stakes in its battle over Ulster’s future: “Thatcher will now realize that British cannot occupy our country, torture(折磨) our prisoners and shoot our people in their own streets and get away with it.” The statement, signed with the IRA’s trademark pseudonym(假名), P. O’Neill, ended on an ominous note: “ Today we were unlucky , but remember , we have only to be lucky once. You will have to be lucky always. Give Ireland peace and there will no war.”

B．if “we” are only lucky once, Thatcher will be killed
C．“we” are unlucky only once
D．both “we” and Thatcher will have to be lucky
63．The best title for this passage might be ____.

A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news form local crime t international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features(特写) as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely , never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through , reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediately can the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.
64．A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its ____.
A．wide coverage B．uniform style

A．apply reading techniques skillfully B．jump from one newspaper to another
C．appreciate the variety of a newspaper D．usually read a newspaper selectively

If you’re not satisfied watching the tube at home, in the pub, or even on the street, cell phone producers are about to offer consumers another choice.
Soon you’ll be holding your favorite show in the palm of your hand. Mobile phones that pick up television signals are about to hit the market and experts predict handset makers will sell about 130,000of the devices by the end of the year.
Those figures are expected to shoot up soon after , according to a study released by the research group Informa, and it is predicted about 125 million mobile phone users will be watching television on their handsets by 2010.
At a time when people can text , email, and record still and moving imagines on their phones , it appears to be the logical next step. Samsung is the first company to roll out this new technology, but it’s not yet available commercially, and Nokia has said it will introduce its invention of the TV phone in the first part of 2006.
“The degree to which these networks will become either competitive or matching will eventually determine the fate of market,” analyst David McQueen said in the report.
The devices will be equipped with special chips(芯片) that will handle the TV signals. Phones also have chips to process mobile phone calls, music and streaming video links.

This hotel in the trees is famous in the world. People who know very little about Kenya, know of Treetops. When king George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops, and when she came down from there, “she succeeded to become the queen of the country”. This hotel in the middle of the forest, shows the pleasure of Africa. When you visit it, you will be sent into the heart of the forest by hotel buses, and then a guide , with a gun to protect you against big game, will go with you to the Treetops. Before and after dinner, for the whole night if you wish, you can sit on the corridor(走廊), watching animals come to the water pool. The earliest hotel Treetops was built round a large tree on the opposite side of the water, but that was destroyed by fire and the new hotel Treetops , which is built round several trees, is much bigger.
The dinning room at Treetops is small, and as the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests, a clever “Railway service” has been invented. Guests take their food as it passes slowly in front of them, along a line in the center of the table.
There are many animals around the Treetops. When you visit them, you can see:
---A long bodied , long ring tailed very active cat-like animal is a special one coming out at night. He hunts and eats anything he can overpower and is very destructive. He lives in the trees at Treetops. He comes for his food every evening. Do not get too near to him, as his teeth and claws can do you harm. These animals can be trained and become lovely pets.

One possible version:
Train Travel and Air Travel
Air travel has two advantages over train travel. First , it can save much time. We can fly from Beijing to Guangzhou just in two hours, but by train, we have to spend 58 hours or more. Second, air travel is more comfortable, because the plane flies so smoothly that we can rest well during the trip, while the train is crowded sometimes and passengers have to sit a long time, which makes them tired. But train travel also has its advantages. For example, traveling by train cost only 250 yuan while traveling by air will cost us 900 yuan. Besides this, outside the train’s windows, we can enjoy the views of many big cities, such as Jinan, Zhengzhou, Wuhan and Changsha. So I think different people like different ways of traveling.
