My Dream
My dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years beforegraduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashiondesign course. However, during that course I realised that I was not good enough in this area to compete with16
other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying foruniversity I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favouriteactivities. But, to be absolutely honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream -I knew that no one, apart from myself, could imagine me in the fashion industry at all!
Today, more than 45 years later, I always check out " It pays to Enrich Your Word Power" first when the Digest comes each month. I am impressed with that idea, word power. Reader's Digest knows the power that words have to move people to entertain, inform. and inspire. The Digest editors know that the big word isn't always the best word. Take just one example, a Quotable Quote from the February 1985 issue: " Time is a playful thing. It slips quickly and drinks the day like a bowl of milk. "
Seventeen words, only two of them more than one syllable, yet how much they convey! That's usually how it is with Reader's Digest. The small and simple can be profound.
As chairman of a foundation to restore the Statue of Liberty, I've been making a lot of speeches lately. I try to keep them fairly short. I use small but vivid words: words like "hope" , "guts", "faith" and "dreams". Those are words that move people and say so much about the spirit of America.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not against using big words, when it is right to do so, but I have also learned that a small word can work a small miracle—if it's the right word, in the right place, at the right time. It's a "secret" that I hope I will never forget.
The passage is mainly about______.
A．one of the many old memories
B．using simple words to express profound ideas
C．Reader's Digest and school speeches
D．how to make effective speeches
听力原文： My first semester of college was the worst I've been through. I had made plans during the summer to share an apartment with two of my close friends from high school. But before we moved in，problems started developing.
One of the two girls I was to share an apartment with was going to work instead of going to college。 However，a week before we were to move in，she found out that she didn't get the job. She is forced to live at home and look for work. The rest two of us lasted for a month and then agreed that we couldn't make it with the higher monthly rent payments. I started looking around.
I found another apartment and the rent wasn't bad. The place was noisy，but it was the best I could afford for the time. However，one day when I returned，I saw smoke coming from the back of the house. The cottage had caught fire，and my room was a burned mess。I was once more out of a place to stay.
I finally gave up looking around and moved home. I had to drive forty miles to school every day，so I almost spent as much on gas as I would have on lodging. I was very bored I almost lost the will to study. It had been really a bad semester!

A．To look for two of her close friends.
B．To stay at home and study.
C．To share an apartment with friends.
D．To move out and live alone.
I was driving along a high road on my way to my daughter’s school. Over my road was another road which was built like a bridge for cars coming to the other way. I was hungry so I put the bag of apples in the seat beside me and started to eat one.
Suddenly I saw the cars in front of me start to move from side to side. Then my car started to shake!I didn’t know what was happening. Perhaps something had gone wrong with my car .I drove a little more slowly and then I stopped the car and at the same moment the road fell onto the car in front of me.
I found myself in the dark.I couldn’t move. The bottom parts of both of my legs and my feet were hurting badly and I couldn’t move them. All around me was quiet. But above me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I memorized (记起) what had happened. I had been in an earthquake.
For about two hours nobody came.Luckily I could reach the bag of apples，so at least I had plenty to eat. Then I heard people climbing towards me. A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the broken road .I called out，“I’m here!” I heard a shout. Soon a stranger climbed to the side of the road near my car.“How are you doing?” he asked.
“Not too bad，” I said，“But my feet and legs feel as if they’re broken.”“We’ll have you out of there just as soon as we can.” They didn’t get me out until the next morning. I had been in my car for fourteen hours.

Night of the Living Ants
When an ant dies，other ants move the dead insect out of the nest．This behavior. is interesting to scientists，who wonder how ants know for sure-and so soon-that another ant is dead．
Dong-Hwan Choe，a scientist at the University of California，found that Argentine ants have a chemical on the outside of their bodies that signals to other ants，“I’m dead-take me away．”
But there's a twist to Choe's discovery．Choe says that the living ants-not just the dead ones -have this death chemical．In other words，while an ant crawls around，perhaps in a picnic or home，it's telling other ants that it's dead．
What keeps ants from hauling away the living dead？Choe found that Argentine ants have two additional chemicals on their bodies，and these tell nearby ants something like，“Wait-I'm not dead yet．” So Choe's research turned up two sets of chemical signals in ants：one says，“I'm dead，”the other set says，“I'm not dead yet．”
Other scientists have tried to figure out how ants know when another ant is dead．If an ant is knocked unconscious，other ants leave it alone until it wakes up．That means ants know that unmoving ants can still be alive．
Choe suspects that when an Argentine ant dies．the chemical that says“Wait-I'm not dead yet” quickly goes away．Once that chemical is gone，only the one that says“I'm dead”is left．“It's because the dead ant no longer smells like a living ant that it gets carried to the graveyard(墓地)，not because its body releases new，unique chemicals after death，”said Choe．When other ants detect the“dead”chemical without the“not dead yet”chemical，they haul away the body．This was Choe's hypothesis(假设)．
To test his hypothesis，Choe and his team put different chemicals on Argentine ant pupae(蛹)． When the scientists used the“I'm dead”chemical，other ants quickly hauled the treated pupae away． When the scientists used the“Wait-I'm not dead yet”chemical，other ants left the treated pupae alone． Choe believes this behavior. shows that the“not dead yet”chemical overrides(优胜于)the“dead”chemical when picked up by adult ants．And that when an ant dies，the“not dead yet”chemical fades away． Other nearby ants then detect the remaining“dead”chemical and remove the body from the nest．
The phrase“this death chemical”in paragraph 3 refers to
A．the chemical that contains poison．
B．the chemical that announces death．
C．the chemical that prevents death．
D．the chemical that causes death．

Please accept my greeting from New York.I am just beginning my graduate (研究院) studies here at this university. It is the third week of classes now. My roommate, Tom, is also a graduate student like me. He is studying biology (生物学). He is from Houston. We are now on good terms.
Our dormitory m going to buy one this afternoon. The view on the window is pleasant, and the weather is hot in the summer right now. It is about 38 degrees outside the room. But we have air conditioning in the room, so I feel OK.
How are you getting on？ Are you still working on your paper now？
Please say "Hello" to those who have taught me. I miss all of you very much.
Love

Oil prices have raised overall consumer prices and cut into household purchasing power. So far the higher costs haven't deterred(阻止) buying, even buying of cars and other energy-sensitive items. The major reason for the lack of reaction is that oil is less important to the economy than it once was. Oil, which produced 45% of world energy in 1971, accounted for only 35% in 2003, with increases in nuclear and natural gas use making up the difference.
GM, Ford, and Chrysler suffered as buyers shifted to more fuel-efficient vehicles from Toyota and Honda, but the shift was hot pronounced. Admittedly, light truck sales are holding up in part because manufacturers are offering large discounts to "move the metal", but the fact that buyers are responding to those incentives shows they aren't too scared of gas prices.
Americans continue to spend more than they earn, but gasoline prices will have an effect. Although the April chain store results suggest gasoline prices aren't hurting much yet, eventually Americans will be forced to realize that they have to slow down. We expect the economy to slow in the second half of the year as the impact of higher oil prices sinks in. How much the economy slows will depend on how high oil prices remain. We expect some drop in oil prices by yearend, but I have been saying that for so long even I am starting not to believe it.
The anger against the oil companies is clearly misplaced. Exxon and friends control only a small share of world oil reserves. Most are now in the hands of state-owned oil companies. The recent move by Bolivia to nationalize its industry is only the latest in a long line of similar actions. The history of these enterprises is one of severe underinvestment and mismanagement, which tends to reduce supply and keep prices high. The risk on oil prices is primarily on the high side of our forecast.
Although I think oil prices will drop back in the medium term, to address my serious worries, I'm buying my wife a bike for Mothers' Day.
The economy at the beginning of 2006 is not affected by the high oil price mainly because ______.
A．the warm winter requires less oil to run the heaters
B．the warm winter promotes consumption, across the country
C．people believe that the oil price will drop in near future
D．people don't think the high price will make much of a difference
