There was another school closer to homebut Linda was black and this school was for white children only.Then her father made a decision that ended in a court case which changed US society forever. It celebrated its 50th anniversary last Monday.The decision was simple: Linda was to study in the nearby all-white school. After the school refused her, Mr. Brown filed a lawsuit against the local board of education.The case, now known as “Brown versus the Board of Education”, made it all the Way to the US Supreme Court. On May 17, 1954, the court declared that “Separate educational facilities are unequal.” This historic ruling ended racial segregation(隔離) by allowing black children to go to the same schools as white children.The court said that the US Constitution guaranteed “equal protection of the laws”, and this meant equal treatment for backs and whims. This overturned a 19th century ruling that permitted “separate but equal” racial segregation.Thanks to the Brown ruling, from the late 1950s segregation was ended on a much wider scale. Buses, beaches, jobs, housing, votingblack people had equal rights to white people in most areas of society. The ruling also helped improved rights for women and the disabled.Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton said: “Brown was the most important court decision in US history.” In other countries, these problems may have been solved through violence, she added.To mark the 50th anniversary of the Brown decision, a museum was opened at Linda Browns old school. Visitors get to walk through the “Tunnel of Courage”, in which they are surrounded by photos of shouting crowds and barking dogs. This gives them a taste of the hardships that Brown faced at the whites-only school.56. Mr. Brown decided to sent her daughter to the whites-only school because _.A. he hated the board of educationB. it is unfair for their black kidsC. the school is close to his homeD. he wanted to change US society57. The first step to create the equal society in the US was to _.A. revise the Constitution of the USAB. get rid of the racial Constitution completelyC. allow black people to have the right of votingD. allow back children to attend the schools for whites58. According to the passage, during the court case Mr. Brown _.A. was run a after by barking dogs of whitesB. was beaten by the shouting crowds of whitesC. decided to build a museum to remember the hardshipD. experienced many hardships facing the whites59. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. Brown rulingB. A freedom fighterC. A good endingD. A non-violence struggleBTo help a 7-year-old very come bedwetting, Dr. Howard Bennett reaches for red water balloons and a superhero named Bladderman. Bedwetting is a problem for many children age 6 or older.Alarms and medicines are available, but understanding how their bodies work for many kids is the key to staying dry. Bennett published a book thats aimed directly at children, not just their parents to help understand bedwetting so that children understand accidents arent their faultits not a matter of willpower but of biologyand to outline research-backed steps they can take to help stay dry.Bedwetting is hard on youngsters self-esteem(自尊). They may decline sleepovers or feel anxious about camp, such as doing their own laundry, to hide the problem. Bennett even had a 9-yar-old patient whose younger brother discovered his bedwetting and used it blackmail.Children usually get nighttime bladder control between ages 3 and 5. the brain and bladder must learn to work together: First, the bladder signals the brain that its filling. The brain then either signals back for the bladder to relax and hold more overnight, or signals the child to awaken. Boys are twice as likely as girls to experience delays in nighttime bladder control.For children who dont want to wait it out, there are ways to help. Most common are alarms that make a sound when they sense wetness. The alarms, which cost from $ 60 to $ 200, can help train children to wake up. “But the education is important,” stresses Dr. Patrick McKenna. Good training in how the bladder works and how to control it can meet the devices effect.60. The passage mainly tries to tell readers that _.A. bedwetting is a common thing for childrenB. boys are easier to have bedwettingC. childrens bedwetting can be overcomeD. bedwetting is a matter of biology61.

Where is this advertisement most probably found?A. In a newspaper B. On a web page C. In a magazine. D. On a TV program.DIf there is one thing Im sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-and the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. Its already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we doas we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.Its quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from the Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, Im pretty sure how it will happen in future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read-say, sports and international news.I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media. They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresee that television would kill of newspapers, but that hasnt happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, its never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. And they will rely on each other.67. In the writers opinion, in the future _.A. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make newsB. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longerC. newspapers will cover less scientific research.D. more and more people will read newspapers68. What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?A. Sports and international news. B. A menu of all the news.C. The most important news. D. What you are interested in.69. From the text, we can infer _.A. newspapers will win the competition among the different mediaB. newspapers will stay with us together with other mediaC. television will take the place of newspaperD. the writer believe some media will die out70. The underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means _.A. depend onB. live onC. fight withD. kill第卷(共35分). 任務(wù)型閱讀(共10小題;每小題1分,滿分10分)閱讀短文,在文章后的表格每空中填一個恰當(dāng)?shù)脑~,每空一詞。Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry. Date speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in present technology. This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones.“Mobile data is not a dream; its not an option but a requirement,” said Len Lauer, head of a US communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterdays news; a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.Face-to-face video callsDont worry about getting lost, 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.Many European countries have already launched the service. In May 2000 the US Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.International telecom companies cant wait to sell 3G in China, the worlds largest mobile telecommunications market. But they will have to be patient. At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services. This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.“We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service,” said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile. “We expect that the 3G licenses will be issued late next year.”Third-generation mobile phones (3G mobile phones)(71)_a.
