families known to them—a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well—respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.
The opponents(反对者)of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.

A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs B. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs C. poor children with certificates are favored in job markets D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success
65. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author? A. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation． B. There would be more opportunities and excellence．
C. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools．
D. Children’s job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation． 66. The opponents of the examination system will agree that A. jobs should not be assigned by systematic selection B. computers should be selected to take over many jobs C. special classes are necessary to keep the school standards D. schools with academic subjects should be done away with 67. The passage mainly focuses on ________.

If you’re into computer games, E3 is where you can find the most up-to-date equipment．For both gamers and companies, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), held in Los Angeles, US, for three days from May 10, was a carnival (狂欢节).

Functional beverages are a foreign concept referred to as ―drinks for specific uses‖. They include sports drinks, which have vitamins and minerals to help replace the salt and minerals lost in sweat; and nutrient drinks, which have caffeine and something to make people excited. Functional beverages have been known in Asia and Europe for some time, but are relative newcomers to the U.S. market. Previously, market participants believe that drinks were all about refreshment.
Functional beverages originated the concept that beverages could be sold as a ―lifestyle‖ product．In fact，one of the main forces at work among the Americans is the lack of time．This sense of speed causes consumers to look for quick and easy solutions: functional beverages have benefited from this attitude，as have functional foods.
It is easier to grab a bottle of juice than eat an apple，easier to down a cereal (谷类食物) bar than get out a bowl and spoon to cat conventional food, and so on. Young consumers are especially drawn to the idea of consuming a functional beverage that provides energy as well as a cool image. Other consumers who want to do something good for themselves find functional drinks better than more conventional beverages that do not have the added ―good for you‖ poisoning.
But some experts suggest consumers should be careful in choosing a brand. For example, some are best after intense exercise and some are not good for people with high blood pressure or heart disease.
Experts have said that today’s functional beverages are more about health and fashion than thirst and that the industry needs regulating.
73. Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word ―beverage‖. ______________________________________________________________ 74. Why do young consumers like functional beverages? (回答词数不超过9个) _____________________________________________________________ 75. What is the text mainly about? (回答词数不超过7个)

Homework is a great way for kids to develop independent, lifelong learning skills, so here are some general homework tips for parents:
● Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework.
Avoid having your child do homework with the television on or in places with other distractions，such as people coming and going.
● Make sure the materials your child needs, such as paper, pencils and a dictionary, are available. Ask your child if special materials will be needed for some projects and get them in advance. ● Help your child with time management．
Establish a set time each day for doing homework. Don’t let your child leave homework until just before bedtime. Think about using a weekend morning or afternoon for working on big projects, especially if the project involves getting together with classmates． ● Be positive about homework.
Tell your child how important school is. The attitude you express about homework will be the attitude your child acquires.
● When your child asks for help, provide guidance, not answers.
Giving answers means your child will not learn the material. Too much help teaches your child that when the going gets rough, someone will do the work for him or her.
Cooperate with the teacher. It shows your child that the school and home are a team. Follow the directions given by the teacher. ● Reward progress in homework.
If your child has been successful in homework completion and is working hard, celebrate that success with a special event (e.g. pizza, a walk, a trip to the park) to reinforce the positive effort．
