Officially almost 60,000 Nepalese women are now working in the Middle East but the unofficial estimate is closer to 200,000. Many of them are under 30 years old and will be directly affected by the new ban.
The government&39;s been under growing pressure to do more to protect its workers. Women employed in the informal sector as part of a household are very vulnerable. Nepal&39;s Embassies in the region say they deal with numerous cases of alleged physical or sexual abuse, as well as complaints about unpaid wages and terrible conditions.
Many run safe houses to support women who flee their employer&39;s homes. It&39;s only 18 months since the government ended a 12-year ban on all women workers to the Gulf. That wasimposed after a young woman working in Kuwait committed suicide. Now they&39;re adopting this partial ban in the hope that older women might be less at risk. Nepal has a high unemployment rate and the government is trying to strike a balance between protection and allowing women to pursue opportunities.
Other countries face the same dilemma. Two months ago, Kenya banned its citizens from working in the Middle East because, it said, increasing numbers were being mistreated. Last year, Indonesia introduced a ban on women working as maids in the region. That followed numerous cases of abuse and the execution of an Indonesian maid who was accused of killing her former employer.
26. Who will be most probably be affected by the new ban?_________
A. Young Nepalese women working in the Middle East.
B. Nepalese women just back from the Middle East.
C. Nepalese women working at home.
D. Nepalese women who wants to work for rich families.
27. Why does the Nepalese government decide to adopt the ban?___________
A. Because they wanted women to work at home.
B. Because they wanted Nepalese women to have equal opportunities.
C. Because they wanted to protect the Nepalese women.
D. Because they had a bad relationship with the gulf countries.
28. How are the Nepalese women treated when working in the Middle East?_________
A. They are well treated.
B. They are offered many opportunities.
C. They have much freedom.
D. Many of them are mistreated and abused.
29. Which of the following is correct about the ban?_________
A. It is historical and has never been imposed before.
B. A year and a half ago, another ban existed.
C. It has lasted twelve years.
D. It solves the unemployment problem at home.
30. Which of the following is correct?_________
A. Middle East women work outside their countries.
B. Women working in the Middle East all come from Asia.
C. Women working in the Middle East need protection.
D. Embassies cannot do anything to protect women from their country.

Now comes July, and with it examinations; but these are soon finished and with them ends the school year.Boys and girls have nearly two months’ holiday before them as they leave school by train and car to return home to their fathers and mothers.
The summer holidays are the best part of the year for most children.The weather is usually good, so that one can spend most of one’s time playing in the garden or, if one lives in the country, out in the woods and fields.Even if one lives in a big town, one can usually go to a park to play.
The best place for a summer holiday, however, is the seaside.Some children are lucky enough to live near the sea, but for the others who do not, a week or two at one of the big seaside towns is something which they will talk about for the whole of the following year.
In England, it is not only the rich who can take their children to the seaside; if a factory worker or a bus driver, a street cleaner or a waiter wants to take his wife and children to Southend or Margate, Blackpool or Clacton, he is usually quite able to do so.
Now, what is it that children like so much about the seaside? I think it is the sand, sea and sun more than any other things.Of course, there are lots of new things to see, nice things to eat, and exciting things to do, but it is the feeling of sand under one’s feet, of salt water on one’s skin, and of the warm sun on one’s back that makes the seaside what it is.
1.Summer holidays start _________.
A.with July
B.as soon as the examinations are over
C.in mid-June
D.in August
2.After the examination, all pupils leave for home ________.
A.by train only

B.more that two months
C.one and a half months
D.a little less than two months

Many changes are taking place in "food style" in the United States. The United States is traditionally famous【36】its very solid and unchanging diet of meat and potatoes. Now we have many【37】alternatives to choose from various ethnic (民族特色的) food, health food, and fast food, in addition to the traditional home-cooked meal.
Ethnic restaurants and supermarkets are commonplace in the United States. Since the United States is a country of immigrants, there is a great variety. Any large American city is filled with restaurants【38】international cooking. Many cities even have ethnic sections: Chinatown, Little Italy, or Germantown. With this vast ethnic choice, we can【39】food from all over the world. This is pleasant for those who come here to travel or to work; they can usually find their【40】specialties.
Health food gained popularity when people began to think more seriously about their physical well-being. Health food is fresh, natural, unprocessed food. It does not【41】preservatives to make it last longer or chemicals to make it taste or look【42】Some health food enthusiasts are vegetarians: They eat no meat; they prefer to get their【43】proteins from other sources, such as beans and rice, cheese and eggs. More and more people are eating healthy food and trying to eat less fat and red meat.
America's【44】toward meals is changing, too. The traditional big breakfast and dinner at 6:00 p.m. are losing popularity. People are rediscovering the social importance of tood. Dinner with family or friends is again becoming a very【45】way of enjoying and sharing. Like so many people in other cultures, many Americans are taking time to relax and enjoy the finer tastes at dinner, even if they still rush through lunch at a hamburger stand.

Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas, such as airports, to help Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February,2005. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example.
Despite the different language, traveling across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas(签证) from the two countries. You also needed a calculator(计算器) because both countries had different money.
Today, with a Schengen Visa issued(签发)by any member countries, you Can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid (有效的) in the other countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.
All the countries in the continent are melting(融于) into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries.
What does the writer mean by saying" Now many European countries ,are expected to follow this ______. example" (Lines 2 - 3, Para. 1 )?
A.More signs will be set up for Chinese in other European countries.
B.Chinese is now an important language in Europe.
C.More Chinese people will go to travel across Europe.
D.More Europeans have a desire to know more about China.

The train clattered over points and passed through a station. Then it began suddenly to slow down, presumably in obedience to a signal. For some minutes it crawled along, then stopped, presently it began to move forward again. At that moment another train, also on a down line, swerved inwards towards them, for a moment with almost alarming effect. For a time the two trains ran parallel, now one gaining a little, now the other. Mrs. McGillicuddy looked from her window through the windows of the parallel carriages. Most of the blinds were down, but occasionally the occupants of the carriages were visible. The other train was not very full and there were many empty carriages. At the moment when the two trains gave the illusion of being stationary, a blind in one of the carriages flew up with a snap. Mrs. McGillicuddy looked into the lighted first-class carriage that was only a few feet away.
Then she drew her breath in with a gasp and half-rose to her feet.
Standing with his back to the window and to her was a man. His hands were round the throat of a woman who faced him, and he was slowly, remorselessly, strangling her. Her eyes were staring from their sockets, her face was purple. As Mrs. McGillicuddy watched, fascinated, the end came; the body went limp and crumpled in the man's hands.
At the same moment, Mrs. McGillicuddy's train slowed down again and the other began to gain speed. It passed forward and a moment or two later it had vanished from sight.
Almost automatically Mrs. McGillicuddy's hand went up to the communication cord then paused, irresolute. After all, what use would it be ringing the cord of the train in which she was traveling? The horror of what she had seen at such close quarters, and the unusual circumstances, made her feel paralysed. Some immediate action was necessary--but what?
The door of her compartment was drawn back and a ticket collector said, "Ticket, please."
When Mrs. McGillicuddy's train passed through a station, it ______.
A.gained speed suddenly
B.kept its usual speed
C.changed its speed
D.stopped immediately
