In Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called “satellite kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.

Asians are immigrating (移民) to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.

The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. Because of these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to Southeast Asia to work while their children study in the West. Therefore, these children become “satellite kids,” and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid.”

Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kid” problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kid” means to grow up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means to grow up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere. What these “satellite kids” will probably say to their parents is that it’s better to have parents around than to have a university education.

50. Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because __________.

A. they hope their children may easily find a job there

B. the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own country

C. all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own country

D. the kids want to improve their English and make foreign friends

51. “Satellite kids” refer to Asian kids __________.

A. without parents

B. living abroad alone

C. with university education

D. speaking no English

52. What is the main idea of the passage

A. Parents want better education for their kids.

B. Parents feel lonely and miss their families.

C. Canadians and Americans begin to solve the “satellite kids” problem.

D. Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from family.

My mind seems always to return to the day when I met Carl. The city bus stopped at a corner to pick up the daily commuters (someone who travels regularly to and from work), a group in which I was included. Boarding the bus, I looked for a place to sit. At last, I found a place to sit near the back.

The occupant of the seat next to the one I was going for was an older man in a grey suit, well-worn dress shoes, and a black hat like I always pictured reporters wearing, but without the little press card. Seated myself, I began to read the book I had been carrying, which was Jack Kerouac’s On the Road. The man in the seat next to me introduced himself by asking if I had read any other book like the one I was holding. When I told him I had, he seemed to become interested, and so did I. He introduced himself as Carl and asked if I liked jazz, and I told him that I didn’t really listen to it, and that I liked rock and roll. Waiting for Carl to tell me that I should listen to real music, I was shocked when he just smiled and nodded. He said, “You remind me o f myself when I was your age. I remember how my parents hated jazz, how they couldn’t see how I could listen to that awful noise. I bet your parents say the same thing, don’t they” Now it was my turn to smile, amused with how right he was.

As the bus ferried us from one side of the city to the other, Carl and I talked about a lot of different things. The more we talked, the more amazed I became at how much the two of us really had in common, despite the age difference. I haven’t seen him since we parted, but the thought of our connection that day rarely leaves my mind.

Carl really made me think about how much we can learn from each other if we just break through the blocks between us we’ve got. I mean, I would have never thought before that day that I could have anything in common with someone so much older than I, just because of age. But Carl taught me that no matter what, we are all just people, and that we should make an extra effort to try and get to know our neighbors and people we see every day, regardless of age, race, religion, sex, or anything else. If we all take the time to attempt to understand each other, I think that the world would be a much better place that we could share together , as humans.

A. did not mind whether there was a seat or not

A. liked jazz music

B. jazz music used to be popular only among young people

C. the author called on people to communicate more

D. Carl made the author realize how much people could learn from each other

Are you one of those who always fear whenever a dog is approaching If you are, you have got phobia (a very strong feeling of being afraid of something). Of all human fears, phobias may be the most uncontrollable. They are most often caused by a particular situation or object. In general, phobias can mainly be divided into three varieties. To begin with, agoraphobia is a fear of staying in strange surroundings, for example, an unfamiliar place, or an open area. Social phobia refers to the anxiety people show when they have to stay or perform on social events, for instance, speaking in front of the class. Lastly, there are a wide range of specific phobias. People suffering from this kind of phobia are terrified of specific objects or creatures, such as spiders, perhaps to your surprise, clowns. Besides, there are about six hundred and fifty phobias having been listed by psychologists (心理学家) as yet.

Faced with their phobias, many people choose to do nothing but just escape the situations or objects they fear. Psychologists, however, warn that if not treated properly, this kind of anxiety will get worse, so that it may disturb the sleep pattern, cause physical symptoms, and finally affect their daily activities. As for treatment, clinical research has discovered that medicine for anxiety is not successful in curing phobias. However, the anxiety disorders can be efficiently treated through cognitive behavioral therapy (认知行为疗法), through which patients are led to inspect the connections between their own fear and the situation or object, and then actively choose the acceptable treatments. Also, other treatments proved effective in reducing phobias are meditation (quiet thought that can help people relax), listening to calming music, and so on.

59. Which do psychologists NOT use for effective treatment of phobias

A. To take medicine for anxiety.

B. To listen to comforting light music.

C. To lose oneself in a peaceful environment.

D. To understand the very source of one’s own anxiety.

60. Which of the following statements about phobias is correct

A. Actors can help people to cure their phobias.

B. Phobias can be divided into six hundred and fifty types.

C. Those suffering from phobias may not sleep well or work normally.

D. Cognitive behavioral therapy demands little participation from patients.

八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每题2分）

If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.

Takes the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare (车费) of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the drive to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver will not show the least sign of anxiety.

The dinning rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside eaters. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining room to have their meals. The only thing they need to do is to show their good faith is to wave their room cards to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old room card to take a couple of friends to eat dinner free of charge.

The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the payment. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.

With so many loopholes (漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “small advantages”. But the strange thing is: all the taxi passengers will always come back to pay their fare after they have dealt with their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms; and workers always give an honest answer of

the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good trust in everything they do, living in

such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.
