Google, the Internet search-engine company, has announced it will give more than twenty-five million dollars in money and investments to help the poor. The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.
Aleem Walji works for Google.org -- the part of the company that gives money to good causes. He said the company’s first project will help identify where infectious (传染性的) diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, Google.org will work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats.
Google.org’s second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. Walji says microfinance (小额信贷) is generally small, short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says Google.org wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth.
Google.org willalso give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars.
The creators of Google have promised to give Google.org about one percent of company profits and one percent of its total stock value every year. Aleem Walji says this amount may increase in the future.

10(5.0) 5.0 Job letters and resumes must attract the attention of busy readers, who may spend only 60 seconds deciding whether to consider you further. This article gives you the tools to write a successful letter and resume. “Successful,” of course, means a letter and resume that will get you an interview. After that, your interpersonal skills will help you land the job. The letter and resume only aim to get you to the next step--the personal interview. Most job letters and resumes still get sent through the mail. However, a growing number of applicants(申请人) use the Interact to apply for jobs. For example, on-line services can place resumes into a bank used by hundreds, perhaps thousands, of companies. The resumes will be scanned with the use of software, which searches for key words that reflect abilities needed for specific jobs and then sends selected resumes to companies. Whether you use on-line techniques like e-mail and resume services or stick with the traditional approach(方式) the same basic writing principles apply. Your letter, no longer than one page, should be specific about the job you seek and your main selling points. The resume--one page or two at most--should simply, specifically, and neatly highlight(强调) your background. 1、(1分) A successful letter and resume will help you _________.

11(5.0) 5.0 Man finds living together with his own species(物种) difficult enough and living together with other species almost impossible. Our usual solution is to kill off anything that get in our way. Even on those rare occasions when we do enter into a relationship with another species, it is heavily biased(带有倾向) in our favor. The other species benefits only when it suits our own interests. Our attempts to communicate with another species are concerned mainly with giving orders in our own language and having them obeyed. Probably our best attempt has been the whistle language that is used in the shepherd-sheepdog relationship. This is a system that is natural to neither species, but one that both can understand. Its only fault lies in fact that the bias is still there--the dog cannot whistle for the man. But now comes news of a piece of research that promises, for the first time, to open up two-way communication between man and another species. At the University of Nevada in the westernUnited States, animated(活跃的)conversations are being held with a young female chimpanzee (黑猩猩)called Washoe. Allen and Beatrice Gardener have succeeded in doing this because they have used an entirely new approach, an approach based on the natural abilities of the chimpanzee. Past attempts to communicate with chimpanzees have failed because the researchers tried to make their animals use a vocal language. 1、(1分) According to the writer, when man finds it impossible to live together with other species, he usually _________. A) tries to communicate with them B) tries to teach them a language C) sets up a relationship with them D) wipes them out
2、(1分) According to the writer; we communicate with animals in an attempt to ________. A) set up a relationship with them B) make them do what we want C) get along well with them D) teach them a language

4、(1分) Allen and Beatrice Gardener managed to communicate with the chimpanzee by ________. A) training the chimpanzee to learn human language in an entirely new method B) creating a language both man and the chimpanzee were able to use C) using animal. s vocal language which the chimpanzee was able to understand D) learning the chimpanzee.s language with an entirely new approach
5、(1.0分) It can be inferred from the passage that _________. A) in the future the chimpanzee can learn language like human beings B) in the past researchers taught a chimpanzee words of our natural language C) man and animals can get along well if they can communicate with each other D) the chimpanzee can communicate well with our human beings
12(5.0) 5.0 As we know, if we want to keep our healthy and have a strong body, our eating habits are very important in our daily life. There .are times when most of us would rather eat sweets and ice cream than meat and rice. Actually, sweets and ice cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite. Meanwhile, it is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it shows that our bodies need food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. When we are worried, we may not want to eat, either. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a sign that he wasn.t telling the truth. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty inswallowing anything dry. He loses his appetite and does not want to eat anything if he is worrying something. 1、(1分) We have to develop good eating habits because ________. A) we want to be healthy and strong B) we want to enjoy our food C) we want to eat more D) we want to save time
3、(1分) What kind of businesses will benefit from Google.org’s second project? A) large enterprises B) cross-national companies C) foreign-funded corporations D) small and medium-sized businesses
