A
“Happy New Year!”Everyone will greet each other with these words as they meet over the next couple of weeks.But it
wasn’t always January l that marked the New Year.
At least 4,000 years ago the ancient Egyptians and Bahylo-nians(古巴比伦人)marked the changing of the year.In
Egypt, the year started when the Nile River(尼罗河)flooded,enriching
farmers’fields with silt(淤泥).This happened at the end of September.
The Babylonians held a festival in spring,on March 23,to kick off the next farming cycle.The Babylonian celebration
lasted for l l days.
The date January l was picked by the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar as the change of the year when he established his
own calendar in 4 6 BC.The month of January was named after the Roman god,Janus(雅努斯).He is pictured with two
heads.0ne head looks forward and the other back.They represent a break between the old and new.That new calendar was
in time with the sun and it has been used until the present Day.
Around the world,different cultures have their own traditions for welcoming the.New Year.The Japanese hang straw
rope across the front of their houses to keep out evil spirits and bring happiness and good luck.They also have a good laugh as
the year begins to get things started on a lucky note.
In India people like to wear pink, red ,purple and white flowers. Women favor yellow,the colour of spring.Hindus also
leave shrines next to their beds so they see beautiful objects when they wake up.
Canadians enjoy the traditional polar bear swim.People of all ages put on their swimsuits and jump into frozen lakes.
71. Which ancient country has a great effect on the New Year we are celebrating now?
A.Egypt. B.Rome. C.Babylon.D.India.
72. What’s the main idea of the last three paragraphs?
A. People in different countries celebrate the New Year in different times of the year.
B. In different countries people celebrate the New Year in different ways.
C. Which country has the best tradition for welcoming the New Year?
D. In different countries people play different games to celebrate the New Year.
73.What can we infer from this passage?

C. Canadians like swimming in the lake to celebrate the New Year though it is very cold.
D. Human beings have been celebrating the New Year for no more than 4.000 years.
B
The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721, the printer James Franklin,
Benjamin's older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper.
He filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all sorts of political subjects.
Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin's Courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed form will
remain alive for long. Newspaper companies are losing advertisers, readers, market value, and, in some cases, their sense of
purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. The chief editor of the Times said recently, "At
places where they gather, editors ask one another, 'How are you?', as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law
case. "An article about the newspaper appeared on the website of the Guardian, under the headline "NOT DEAD YET."
Perhaps not, but the rise of the Internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world,
has brought about a real sense of death. Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three
years. The New York Times Company has seen its stock(股票) drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss
coming in the past year. A manager at Deutsche Bank suggested that stock-holders sell off their Times stoc k. The Washington
Post Company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education: its testing and test-preparation
service now brings in at least half the company's income. 74. What can we learn about the New England Courant?
A. It is mainly about the stock market.
B. It marks the beginning of the American newspaper.
C. It remains a successful newspaper in America.
D. It carries articles by political leaders.
75. What can we infer about the newspaper editors?
A. They often accept readers' suggestions
B. They care a lot about each other's health.
C. They stop doing business with advertisers.
D. They face great difficulties in their business.
76 Which of the following found a new way for its development?
A. The Washington Post B. The Guardian
C. The New York Times D. New England Courant
77. How does the author seem to feel about the future of newspapers?
A. Satisfied B. Hopeful C. Worried D. Surprised
C
Crossroads International
How does Crossroads work?

them.We collect those goods and give them in the welfare(福利) places in Hong Kong,mainland China ,elsewhere in Asia,Eastern
Europe and Africa.So Crossroads is just that:a Crossroads between need and resource.
Who do we help?
The welfare agencies(机构)we help do not run on large budgets(预算).They ate grass.Roots group who have seen a need
and tried to meet it.They can’t get the job done without back-up,though,so our job is to help them do their work.Our
warehouse(仓库)is full of goods,from computers to high chairs,clothing to books,stationery (文具)to medical provision(供

* Offices * Other Charities
One resource that we are always in need of is people.While we receive large quentities of goods and there is never a short
supply of requests for them,we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare them for shipping!
What can I do?
We are always in need of people.We have a lot of different jobs.If you are volunteering regularly,we can offer work in some
of the following categories(类别),some of the time.You are welcome to number your top three choices and we Will do our best
to match them.
