We all know what it is like to be unable to turn your head because of a cold in the muscles (肌肉) of your neck, or because an unexpected twist（扭曲）has made your neck ache. The slightest move makes you jump with pain. Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck.
That is why we use the phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling. We have all met such people.
One is the man who always seems to be clapping his hands—often at the wrong time—during a performance in the theater. He keeps you from hearing the actors.
Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and the play begins. They come hurrying down to your row of seats. You are comfortably settled down, with your hat and heavy coat in your lap. You must stand up to let them pass. You are proud of yourself-control after they have settled into their seats…Well, what now…God, one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the men’s room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass. Now, that is “a pain in the neck”.
Another, well—known to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies. His mouth is full of popcorn (爆米花); he is chewing（嚼）loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still. Up and down, back and forth, they go—for another bag of popcorn, or something to drink.
Then, there is the man sitting next to you at lunch, smoking. He wants you to enjoy it too, and blows smoke across your food into your mouth.
We must not forget the man who comes into a bus or subway and sits down next to you, just as close as you will let him. You are reading the newspaper and he gets closer so that he can read the paper with you. He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.
We also call such a person a “rubber neck”, always getting close to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your visitors. They enjoy learning about your personal business. People have a strong dislike for “rubber necks”. They hate being watched secretly.
1．Where can you find this passage?
A. In a medicine dictionary. B. in a kids’ story book.
C. In a social science book. D. In a science textbook.
2．According to the passage, how do you feel when late comers walk back and forth in front of you in a cinema?
A.disturbed. B.bored. C.ignored. D. relaxed.
3．A “rubber neck” often __________________ .
A. says bad words behind people. B. quarrels face to face with neighbors.
C. bargains with salespeople over the price D. asks about other people’s business
4．Which of the following persons CANNOT be described as a “pain in the neck”?
A. Someone who often claps at the wrong time during a performance.
B. Someone who feels ache in his neck due to a cold in the muscles.
C. Someone who sits next to you smoking, which you never enjoy.
D. Someone who keeps eating or talking all through the movies.
5．What is the main purpose of the author?
A. To tell people what might be bad manners in public.
B. To criticize (批評(píng)) the people who might be a “pain in the neck”
C. To show anger to those who are described as a “pain in the neck”.
D. To tell people how to stop the pain in the neck.

C
Two farmers in northeast China Heilongjiang Province have been sentenced to nine and five years in jail because of eating a tiger, the local court said on Tuesday.
Zhang Licheng and Gong Weisheng, both farmers in Dongning County, were put into prison for the crime of illegally hunting and killing endangered wild animal species, according to the People’s Court of Dongning County.
The Siberian tiger, mistakenly trapped but intentionally（故意的）eaten by the farmers, was an endangered animal which is under the first-class state protection in the country. The farmers, living in a village very close to forests, used to trap wild animals like roe deer and hares when the dying tiger unfortunately caught in their trap in February 2003.
Knowing that tiger trade was illegal, Zhang and Gong, however, thought eating a dead tiger’s meat was not breaking the law. They decided to cover it up and therefore did not report to the relevant authorities, the court said.
Six days later they secrectly carried home the tiger that had died of hunger as they had expected.The two farmers burnt the tiger’s skin, ate its meat and hid away the bones, according to the court. The crime was uncovered and reported to the police about a year later and the transgressors（違反者）were arrested on Jan.16, 2004.
64.When the two farmers found the tiger trapped, they ______________.
A.wanted to kill it for its skin
B.were pleased to have the chance to eat its meat
C.hoped to sell it at good price
D.reported the case to some departments of the government

A.roe deer are being well protected
B.the Siberian tigers do no harm to people
C.China values the protection of endangered animals
D.farmers in Dongning County won’t like endangered wild animal species any longer
66.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Tigers Are Endangering
B.Two Unlucky Farmers
C.Tigers Are Well Protected in China
D.Two Farmers Jailed for Eating Tiger
67.The right statement of the following about the tiger is ____________.

Computerised trading agents may help humans build better markets
THANKS to declining markets, investment banks are getting rid of many of their highly-paid traders. When markets recover, the banks might be tempted to replace them with rather cheaper talent. One alternative has been around for a while but has yet to catch on: autonomous trading agents-computers programmed to act like the human version without such annoying costs as holidays, lunch breaks or bonuses. Program trading has, of course, been done before; some blamed the 1987 stock market crash on computers instructed with simple decision-making rules. But robots can be smarter than that.
Dave Cliff, a researcher at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories in Bristol, England, has been creating trading robots for seven years. In computer simulations he lets them evolve "genetically", and so allows them to adapt and fit models of real-world financial markets. His experiments have suggested that a redesign of some markets could lead to greater efficiency. Last year, a research group at IBM showed that Mr Cliff's artificial traders could consistently beat the human variety, in various kinds of market. Nearly all take the shape of an auction(拍賣). One well-known type is the English auction, familiar to customers of the salesrooms(拍賣場(chǎng))of Christie's and Sotheby's, where sellers keep mum on their offer price, and buyers increase their bids by stages until only one remains.
At the other extreme is the Dutch auction, familiar to 17th-century tulip-traders in the Netherlands as well as to bidders for American Treasury bonds. Here, buyers remain silent, and a seller reduces his price until it is accepted. Most markets for shares, commodities, foreign exchange and derivatives are a mixture of these two types: buyers and sellers can announce their bid or offer prices at any time, and deals are constantly being closed, a so-called "continuous double auction".
Mr Cliff's novel idea was to apply his evolutionary computer programs to marketplaces themselves. Why not, he thought, try and see what types of auction would let traders converge(趨同) most quickly towards a balance price? The results were surprising. In his models, auctions that let buyers and sellers bid at any time like most of today's financial exchanges were less efficient than ones that required relatively more bids from either buyers or sellers. These "evolved auctions" also withstood big market shocks, such as crashes and panics, better than today's real-world versions. Mr Cliff's most recent results, which will be presented in Sydney, Australia, on December 10th, show that the best type of auction for any market depends crucially on even slight differences in the number of buyers and sellers.
Bank of America has been investigating these new auctions, along with robotic traders, for possible use in electronic exchanges. The hope is that today's financial auctions and online marketplaces might work better by becoming more like their English and Dutch ancestors.
1.What is the passage mainly about?
A. A review of two kinds of auctions. B. An introduction of trading robots.
C. A survey of the trading market. D. About trading alternatives.
2.Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. Mr Cliff’s robot traders have now been used in real-world markets.
B. Robot traders can evolve like creatures.
C. There is room for improvement in efficiency in trading markets.
D. The English auction is the most popular trading form.
3.What can we infer from the text?
A. Existing auctions cannot withstand market shocks
B. The Dutch auction is better than the continuous double auction
C. It’s hard for traders to reach a balanced price
D. The best type of auction takes place when the number of the buyers is equal to that of sellers
4.What’s the author’s attitude toward robot traders?
A. Prejudiced B. Objective C. Critical D. Optimistic

I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him .But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that ,they played for time,… and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality.
