After a survey by a group of international experts, the beaches at Sharm el-Sheikh are to reopen, but only after strict new safety measures are in place. There will be continuous patrols by boats close to shore.
Watch towers are being established along the beaches, manned by professional divers, equipped with binoculars to scan for any sign of sharks. Swimmers will have to remain within designated areas, and rules against feeding sharks or any other sea life are being reinforced.
The international shark experts concluded that recent attacks were carried out by more than one shark, so waiting until the culprit was caught seems not to have been an option before opening the beaches, especially as the peak Christmas season approaches. But tourists may be understandably nervous and at least some cancellations are reported.
26. What probably happened before the re-opening of the beach？_________
A. It must have been destroyed by a rainstorm.
B. It must have been visited by a dangerous shark.
C. Some people must have come here for suicidal.
D. There must have been a serious pollution.
27. Which of the following is NOT correct？_________
A. International experts surveyed the beach before its reopening.
B. Patrol boats are used to keep the beach under close watch.
C. People are not allowed to come to the beach.
D. Tourists do not come to the beach any longer.

29. What can people do after the reopening of the beach？_________

30. Which of the following is correct？_________

They may not be the richest, but Africans remain the world's staunchest optimists. An annual survey by Gallup International, a research outfit, shows that, when asked whether this year will be better than last, Africa once again comes out on top. Out of 52,000 people interviewed all over the world, under half believe that things are looking up. But in Africa the proportion is close to 60% almost twice as much as in Europe.
Africans have some reasons to be cheerful. The continent's economy has been doing fairly well with South Africa, the economic powerhouse, growing steadily over the past few years. Some of Africa's long-running conflicts, such as the war between the north and south in Sudan and the civil war in Congo, have ended. Africa even has its first elected female head of state, in Liberia.
Yet there is no shortage of downers too. Most of Africa remains dirt poor. Crises in places like Cote d'Ivoire, Sierra Leone and Zimbabwe are far from solved. And the democratic credentials of Ethiopia and Uganda, once the darlings of western donors, have taken a bad knock. AIDS killed over gm Africans in 2005, and will kill more this year.
So is it all just a case of irrational exuberance？ Meril James of Gallup argues that there is, in fact, usually very little relation between the survey's optimism rankings and reality. Africans, this year led by Nigerians, are consistently the most upbeat, whether their lot gets better or not. On the other hand, Greece—hardly the worst place on earth—tops the gloom and doom chart, followed closely by Portugal and France.
Ms James speculates that religion may have a lot to do with it. Nine out of ten Africans are religious, the highest proportion in the world. But cynics argue that most Africans believe that 2006 will be golden because things have been so bad that it is hard to imagine how they could possibly get worse. This may help explain why places that have suffered recent misfortunes, such as Kosovo and Afghanistan, rank among the top five optimists. Moussaka for thought for those depressed Greeks.
The statistics are employed in the first paragraph so as to indicate sort of ______.
A．disparity
B．numbness
C．conformity
D．stagnation

I have closely watched my generation, known as The Millennials, for 29 years now. Joel Stein wrote an extensive piece on Millennials and he remains rather optimistic about our potential.
I hesitate to share his optimism because of a paradox (矛盾的现象) we seem to exhibit, namely, that there are more avenues for us to entertain ourselves than ever before, yet we are more bored than ever before.
Entertainment has never been more varied. We have more cable channels, television shows, and movies than ever before. Internet providers allow instant viewing of almost any movie or television program ever created. Social drinking and partying are also widely available for Millennials. Every generation develops these habits at a certain age, but Millennials seem to be extending this phase of life as they postpone marriage.
Some of this is undoubtedly due to The Great Recession. Millennials are having a difficult time finding jobs; only 47 percent of 16-to-24-year-olds are employed, the smallest share since government started recording data in 1948.
But do Millennials respond to these economic troubles by doing whatever it takes to make ends meet？ Hardly. In fact, of the four generations Pew Research has data for, the Millennial generation does not cite work ethic (勤奋工作) as distinctive of itself. Millennials want to save the world, but they sit and wait for that world-changing opportunity to be handed to them. Instead of working 2-3 jobs, launching a business, or doing what it takes to succeed, they retreat. Millennials may be the first generation to have a lower standard of living than their parents, but with this response to adversity (逆境), perhaps deservingly so.
Much ink has been spilled in management books discussing how to get the most out of these youths in the workplace. Largely, they come to the same conclusion: Millennials are entitled, over-confident, and expect too much too quickly. We should not be surprised. Today’s young adults were raised by parents who made sure to boost their self-esteem at every turn, telling them they could achieve whatever they set their minds to, and handing out prizes for the sixth place.
61. What does the author of the passage think of Millennials？
A. They show little interest in entertainment.
B. They are not confident about their ability.
C. They enjoy an easy life due to high technology.
D. They may not have bright prospects for success.
62. How do Millennials feel about their life？
A. They can hardly do anything about it.
B. There is little in it to get excited about.
C. It is not as good as their parents’.
D. It is full of opportunities for success.
63. In what way are Millennials different from previous generations according to Pew Research？
A. They spend less time socializing.
B. They are indifferent to others.
C. They do not value hard work.
D. They are more independent.
64. What should Millennials do according to the author？
A. Remain optimistic in face of adversity.
B. Start a business as early as possible.
C. Make full use of new opportunities.
D. Take action to change their situation.
65. Why are Millennials over-confident about themselves？
A. They have been spoiled by their parents.
B. They can always get whatever they expect.
C. They are misguided by management books.
D. They think they are young and energetic.
