Lyne Brown was once the headmaster of an elementary school. She said, "A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached.! was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts. There were so many keys, it never came to my mind what they meant. ",slowly, she learned they were house keys.

Lyne learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children. She found that Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.

The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet. The second is TV. They'll often play it at high volume. It's hard to get statistics (情况，材料) on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.

It was the worst tragedy in maritime history, six times more deadly than the Titanic.When

It was the worst tragedy in maritime history, six times more deadly than the Titanic.

When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes fired from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War Ⅱ, more than 10,000 people--mostly women, children and old people fleeing the final Red Army push into Nazi Germany--were packed aboard. An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families sliding into the sea as the ship tilted and began to go down. Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down. Some who succeeded fought off those in the water who had the strength to try to claw their way aboard. Most people froze immediately. "I'll never forget the screams," says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors. She recalls watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave—and into seeming nothingness, rarely mentioned for more than half a century.

Now Germany's Nobel Prize-winning author Guenter Grass has revived the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children--with his latest novel Crab Walk, published last month. The book, which will be out in English next year, doesn't dwell on the sinking; its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the catastrophe only to say later. "Nobody wanted to hear about it, not here in the West (of Germany) and not at all in the East. " The reason was obvious. As Grass put it in a recent interview with the weekly Die Woche: "Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for were and are so dominant, we didn't have the energy left to tell of our own sufferings. "

The long silence about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was probably unavoidable--and necessary. By unreservedly owning up to their country's monstrous crimes in the Second World War, Germans have managed to win acceptance abroad, marginalize the neo-Nazis at home and make peace with their neighbors. Today's unified Germany is more prosperous and stable than at any time in its long, troubled history. For that, a half century of willful forgetting about painful memories like the German Titanic was perhaps a reasonable price to pay. But even the most politically correct Germans believe that they've now earned the right to discuss the full historical record. Not to equate German suffering with that of its victims, but simply to acknowledge a terrible tragedy.

Why does the author say the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was the worst tragedy in maritime history？ ______

A．It was attacked by Russian torpedoes.

B．Most of its passengers were frozen to death.

C．Its victims were mostly women and children.

D．It caused the largest number of casualties.

Are you aware that you actually possess six senses？ The sixth is a muscular sense responsi

ble for directing your muscles intelligently to the extent necessary for each action you perform. For example, when you reach for an object, the sensory nerves linking the muscles to the brain stop your hand at the correct spot. This automatic perception of the position of your muscles in relation to the object is your muscular sense in action.

Muscles are stringly bundles of fibers varying from one five - thousand of an inch to about three inches. They have three unique characteristics, they can become shorter and thicker; they can stretch; and they can retract to their original positions. Under a high -powered microscope, muscle tissue is seen as long, slender cells with a grainy texture like wood.

More than half of a person' s body is composed of muscle fibers, most of which are involuntary, in other words, work without conscious direction. The voluntary muscles, those that we move consciously to perform. particular actions, number more than five hundred. Women have only 60 to 70 percent as much muscle as men for their body mass. That is why an average woman can' t lift as much, throw as far, or hit as hard as an average man.

According to the selection, the muscular sense is responsible for ______ .

A．the efficiency of our muscles

B．the normal breathing function

C．directing our muscles intelligently

D．the work of only our involuntary muscles

In many stories on TV and in science-fiction books, men travel to faraway stars. They have

quick, easy journeys. But so far, men have been able to reach only the earth's own moon.

Suppose a man wanted to reach a distant star. Even if he traveled his whole life, he would have to move faster than the speed of light. Nothing can move that fast except light itself.

Strange things happen to an object when it moves rapidly. The object weighs more. An object moving at 86 percent of the speed of light is twice as heavy as it is at rest. A stick appears shorter. A clock runs more slowly. A man would not age so fast as he would on the earth.

Light travels more than 186, 000 miles a second, or about 11 million miles a minute. In one year, light travels six trillion(万亿) miles. That great distance is called a light-year. It is used to measure distances in space.

The star closest to our sun is Alpha Centrauri (半人马座a星). It is more than four lightyears away. If one traveled at the speed of light, he could make a round trip to Alpha Centauri in nine years. But, even at that speed, he could not reach Alcaid (北斗星)in the handle of the Big Dipper. A one-way journey to Alcaid would take almost 200 years!

Why do we measure the distance in light-years instead of miles？

A．Units of light-years sound better.

B．Using light-years reduced the number of figures used.

C．We used to measure distance in light-years long ago.

D．We do not make mistakes when we use light-years.

Leisure plays an important part in British life. There are four main reasons for thi

Leisure plays an important part in British life. There are four main reasons for this.

First of all, people spend less time working now than they used to, mostly due to the introduction of new industrial technology. The normal British working week is Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., although some people regularly work a few hours' overtime each week. Secondly, all working people get a minimum of two weeks' paid holiday a year. In addition, there are six or more bank holidays a year when all banks and businesses are closed. In some cases the dates of these national holidays change from year to year and in different parts of Britain.

Another reason is that, thanks to modern medicine and higher living standards, people live longer now. This means that after retirement, people have quite a few years of leisure left. Nowadays a much higher proportion of the population is over sixty, but in this group there are more women than men.

Finally, fewer babies are born each year and the average family in Britain has two children. This is one result of changing social attitudes. For example, many more married women now go out to work. The money they earn influences their leisure time. Even married women who do not go out to work have more time for interesting hobbies because most British homes have washing machines, vacuum cleaners and other labor-saving gadgets.

The best title of this passage can be ____.

A. Time for relax

B. Time for refreshment

C. British working hour

D. British family

“A paid holiday” (in Para. 2) means working people ____.

A. have to pay for their holiday

B. have no pay when they are on holiday

C. get usual pay when they are on holiday

D. get less pay when they are on holiday

Among the old people, there are ____.

A. as many men as women

B. more women than men

C. more men than women

D. many more women than men

In Britain, married women have more leisure hours because they have ____.

A. work with a good pay

B. a lot of time

C. washing-machines and vacuum cleaners

D. fewer children and more labor-saving gadgets

Which of the following ideas is NOT suggested in the passage？

A. Some married women have more time of reading.

B. Some married women have interesting hobbies.

C. Some married women now go out to work.

D. Some married women still stay at home.
