“In our time,” Marx once wrote, “change is upon the world and cannot be stopped as we wish. The thing now is to understand it.” Marx devoted his life to understanding that change.
Born in Trier in 1818, he came from a rich, middle—class family. Many of his relatives had believed in Judaism(犹太教),but his father had changed to believe in Protestantism(新教) in order to become a lawyer. After studying at the universities of Bonn and Berlin, Marx became interested in politics in his early twenties and in 1848 wrote The Communist Manifesto, together with his life-long friend Friedrich Engels.
Revolution broke out throughout Europe in 1848 and Marx was forced to leave Germany when it failed in 1849. He moved to London, where he spent the rest of his life, working in the British Museum.
His stay in the house in Dean Street in Soho was a time of great hardship for Marx and his family. He was surviving almost on the money provided by Engels and on the very little money he earned as the foreign reporter for a newspaper in New York.
Three of his six children died during the time in Soho and, Marx even had to borrow money in order to bury one of them. Only when Marx’s wife Jenny got 120 pounds after her mother died was the family able to move out of Soho and into a slightly better house in Kentish Town.
Marx died on March 14th ,1883, and is buried in Highgate Cemetery in north London.

In order to know a foreign language thoroughly (完全地), four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Second, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation (犹豫). Third, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.
There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory (记忆) is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must learn through use. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever(无论何时) we can.
65. The most important things to learn a foreign language are ________.
A. understanding and speaking B. hearing, speaking, reading and writing
C. writing and understanding D. memorizing and listening
66. Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because ______.
A. he doesn't understand the language when he hears it spoken
B. he doesn't have a good memory
C. he always remembers lists of words and their meanings
D. he often hesitates to practise speaking it
67. Which of the following is the most important in learning a foreign language?
A. A good memory. B. Speaking. C. Practice. D. Writing.

D. both B and C

Most American children eat potatoes every day, but they don't know which part of potato is most nourishing(有营养的).Take a sharp knife and cut a very thin slice(薄片) from it and hold it to the light, you will see that the potato has skin, an outside rim(边缘) and the inner part. The outside rim which is right under the skin is most nutritious(有营养).But this part is often thrown away with the skin. Even the skin itself is better for food than the inside. When eating a cooked potato, if you choose the inside and leave the outside, you are wasting the best part of it. If you can’t eat the whole potato, it is better to eat the outside rim and leave the inner part.

Professor Martin’s report says that children who attend a number of different schools，because their parents have to move around the country，probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs，says Professor Martin，that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected. The professor says，“It’s true，my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. But our findings are based on research and not on any personal feelings. ” Captain Thomas James，an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two，said，“I’ve never heard of such rubbish. Taking me for example. no harm is done to the education of my children，who change schools regularly—if they keep to the same system，as in our Army schools. In my experience—and I’ve known quite a few of them—Army children are as well adjusted as any others，if not more so. What the professor doesn’t appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situation children will adapt much better than grown-ups.”When this reached Professor Martin，he said that at no time had his team suggested that all children were backward or mentally affected in some way，but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency.“Our findings show that while the very bright children can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies，the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning situation.” Professor’s Martin’s report suggests that

From the passage，we can conclude that Captain James’ children_____.

Many boys love reading about the legends of old pirates (海盗) and dreaming of their own wild adventures. But modern pirates are not a thing of the past. Last month Somali pirates did their boldest hijacking (劫持) to date. They seized the Saudi supertanker (超大型油轮) Sirius Star carrying crude oil worth about $100 million. They demanded $15 million to free the ship and its crew.
The pirates have kept hitting the headlines this year: 92 attacks have been attempted, with 36 successful hijackings and 268 crew members taken hostage (人质). The Chinese fishing ship Tianyu 8, with 17 Chinese and 8 foreigners on board, has been in their hands since November 14.
Of course piracy (海盗行为) is nothing new. Even since there has been water and ships there have been pirates. The earliest documented history of pirates dates back to the 13th century in the Mediterranean Sea. Even the famous Roman emperor Julius Caesar was once kidnapped by pirates.
Piracy reached its peak in the mid-1700s. It was during this time in the Caribbean and off the coast of Africa that men like “Blackbeard the Pirate” made this profession attractive. But with the creation of stronger national Navies piracy became less popular around the world.
In the mid-20th century, most pirates were petty (小规模的) thieves. They used hooks to sneak (偷偷摸摸) on board ships at anchor, and grabbed all that they could find. These pirates were more likely to flee than fight if faced by the crew.
However, nowadays piracy has become a multi-million-dollar business at tracting many in poor countries. Pirates are treated like heroes among local fishermen.
They use satellite phones and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Once they spot their target, they swarm the ship with fast boats and shoot it by firing AK-47s or even rocket-propelled grenades (火箭榴弹炮). Then they hold the ship and its crews for money.
“The world should take forceful actions together to fight piracy,” said leaders at the Asian and Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Peru.
“However, putting in anti-piracy army can only be half of the solution. We have to protect the fair chance of Somali fishermen to get a good living and keep them from the lure of easy money,” said Peter Lehr, a lecturer in terrorism studies. When did piracy reach its peak?
| A．In the 13th century. | B．In the mid-1700s. |
| C．In the mid-20th century. | D．November 14, 2008. |
What does the underlined sentence probably mean?
| A．Pirates were very bold at first. | B．Pirates were very popular then. |
| C．Pirates were very attractive then. | D．Pirates were not so bold at that time. |
According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
| A．The pirates have committed 92 crimes successfully this year. |
| B．Piracy became more and more popular as the national Navies became powerful. |
| C．Nowadays, pirates are learning to use modern weapons to commit crimes at sea. |
| D．On November 18, a Chinese ship was attacked by a suspected pirate ship. |
