Haler will carry on the "Green Olympics" legacy and introduce more "green" products to the glob al market.
Mr. ZHANG Ruimin, Chairman! and CEO of Haier, said: "Haier's objective is to become a global brand; the fact that Haier already started its. globalization process gave us the strength to sponsor the Olympic Games. The Olympic Games provided us with a great platform to showcase the quality of our products to the world. The Games have boosted our globalization process by linking Haier to the Olympic Rings and Spirit."
Haier raised-its profile (形象) globally through a series of activities during the Olympics. Haier will fulfill its "One Gold Medal, One Olympic Hope School" program where 51 schools will be built throughout rural China to help more than 30,000
disadvantaged children finish school. Over 82,000 Chinese and international visitors experienced the future of home appliance technology inside the Haler "Making the World a Home" experience center.

It was reported today that in China, 50 % of people who write blogs do so as
a personal diary and 83 % use their blogs for sending messages to friends. It was
also found that there is a strong East-West difference. In places like the US, blogs
that offer information on news attract more readers but in China, blogs are more
likely to be about sharing personal feelings.
It seems that bloggers can be divided into three types: IT bloggers, bloggers
who record their ordinary feelings and media bloggers.
When blogging first started, the IT people had the technological advantage
and they took the chance to put their thoughts on the web. Some of these IT people
read their blogs.
The next wave of bloggers did not have any training as writers or in IT and
wrote about normal daily life. Media bloggers, however, are trained writers, such
as journalists and editors. When the many media bloggers showed up, the everyday
blogs lost most of their readers. Media bloggers have the advantage of knowing how
to communicate well through the written word.
However, the normal bloggers are still out there and increasing in number.
It seems that blogging is the new way to express your feelings. People feel like
the world is listening to, or rather reading, their problems, even if they are not.
64. What type of text is this?
A. A biog.
B. A diary.
C. A news report.
D. A school textbook.
65. What is the text's subject?
A. How many people in China biog.
B. How did blogging get started.
C. Different types of blogs and bloggers.
D. What media bloggers do.
66. How does the writer feel about the subject?
A. He/She feels strongly that blogging is a good thing.
B. He/She feels that there are lots of problems with blogging.
C. We can't tell since he/she is not a blogger.
D. We can't tell since he/she is just reporting facts.
67. What is the writer's tone?
A. Humorous and light - hearted.
B. Serious and factual.
C. Conversational.
D. Informal.

Parsley (西芹) is an ancient green, rich in vitamins and nutrients. But many times on dinner table, its job is just to decorate the plates. Then after dinner it is thrown away as the taste is a little strong for many people.
Curly parsley is often planted just for its appearance. Many gardeners grow it as a border for flowerbeds. Flat-leaf parsley is easier to work with for cooking. This kind is often called Italian or French parsley. Hamburg parsley has flat leaves that can be used for decorations. But Hamburg parsley has a large root which is used as a vegetable -- for example, to add flavor to soups. Some people like soups with Hamburg parsley, for they are more delicious.
Parsley can often be found in food such as a traditional Lebanese salad. And it is often served with lamb, fish and beef dishes. Parsley is an herb (草本植物) if you use just the greens. Some gardeners suggest that you should plant new seeds every year to get the best tasting parsley. You can get parsley to grow faster by pouring warm water over the seeds. Leave the seeds in the water overnight, and you can grow them in boxes indoors or plant them outside. Parsley grows best when temperatures are about 21℃, in sunny places: The seeds need rich, wet soil. Water them regularly during the first month. After that, parsley does not need very much water.
For harvest, you can cut most of it from the ground. To dry parsley, tie it together and hang it in a warm, dark, airy place.
68. Parsley is often thrown away after being used for a decoration because ______.
A. it becomes dirty
B. it loses its nutrients
C. many people don't like its taste
D. it will do harm to people's health
69. Which parsley is not only considered as an herb but also a vegetable?
A. Curly parsley.
B. Italian parsley.
C. French parsley.
D. Hamburg parsley.
70. The fourth paragraph is mainly about ______.
A. how to keep parsley
B. how to grow parsley better
C. how to make parsley grow faster
D. how often to wash parsley
71. The underlined word "flavor" in the second paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A. color

C. taste
D. interest

The Pathfinder
When we found him, he was a sorry sight. His clothes were torn, his hands bleeding. Before we reached him, we saw him fall. He lay a moment. Then he pulled himself to his feet, walked unsteadily a few yards through the woods and fell again.
After we got him out, we went back to find the gun that he had thrown down. His tracks showed that for two days he had circled in the forest, within 200 yards of the road. His senses were so dulled by fear and tiredness that he did not hear the cars going by or see the lights at night.
We found him just in time.
This man, like others before him, had simply been frightened when he knew he was lost. What had been a near disaster might have turned out as only a pleasant walk, had he made a few preparations before he stepped from the highway, or off a known path.
Whatever sense of direction that a man may have, it's still largely a question of observation. A skilled woodsman always keeps an eye on his surroundings. He notes that the shape of a mountain, the direction water flows through a swamp, and the way a tree leans across a path. With these in mind, he may be turned around many times, but he is seldom lost.
There are exceptions, of course, and once in a while a man does come across some strange problem that puts him into the "lost" situation. A rainstorm or sudden blizzard (暴风雪) may catch him without a compass in his pocket. Darkness may find him in a rough area, where travel is dangerous without a light.
When this happens, the normal first reaction is the fear of being laughed at as a result of his poor knowledge in the woods. He may also be concerned about the inconvenience that he will cause his friends when he doesn't show up. This false pride may lead him to keep on the move in a false effort to find his way against all difficulties.
The person who thinks ahead is seldom in great danger. He'11 be safe if he observes carefully, thinks ahead, and remains calm.
72. The author suggested that if the man had not been found, he would have ______.
A. been shot by a gun
B. become confused
C. been attacked by wild animals
D. been in great danger
73. According to the passage, if a person gets lost in the forest, at the very beginning, he would ______.
A. worry about being laughed at
B. push himself to find his way out
C. feel it is convenient to ask for help from his friends
D. be concerned about being frightened by wild animals
74. When a person tries to find his way in the woods, is the most important.
A. intelligence
B. observation
C. direction
D. chance
75. The author tells the story of the lost man as an example of people who ______.
A. go into the woods by themselves
B. don't know how to signal for help properly
C. are frightened when they think they are lost
D. notice everything when stepping from the highway

My favorite sport is football. I was a member of
our school football team. We practice for three times
every week and often watch football match on TV
together. Play football not only makes us grow up
tall and strong but also give us a sense of fair play and
team spirit. We must keep in mind that we play
for the team instead ourselves. Also, the sport
teaches us the important of obedience (服从). Each
player must obey captain, who is the leader of
the team. And they must not break the rules too
often if we want to win the game.
