About the year 1990,a small dark-haired boy named Charles Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrances of theatres. He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn't get work and therefore wandered about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents.
But twenty years later this same Chaplin became the greatest, best known, and best loved comedian in the world. Nearly all visitors to cinema must have seen some of Chaplin's films.

Pausing (停留) in the doorway, he saw that the windows were closed and the curtains drawn with everything as it should be, and everything in its usual place, the bed still unmade, and the suitcase (小提箱) on the floor. But something, a faint trace of perfume (香水味) in the air, made him stop and look around carefully, as he tried to remember where he had smelt it before. He closed the door quietly, sure that nothing was wrong, that no one had followed him, though the perfume was still there, worrying at the back of his mind.

Judo (柔道) and Karate (空手道) are sports for self-de fence. They began in the eastern part of the world, but now many Americans enjoy them too. In fact, schools for teaching them have been opened all over the United States and Canada.
Players in both sports use only their hands, arms, legs and feet. However, the two sports are quite different. In Karate, players hit each other with the open hand and with the closed fist (拳头) They also use foot for kicking. In Judo, players are more likely to throw each other. Then they try to touch and pin (按住) each other down. They also move their arms and legs in large circles. Karate moves, on the other hand, are short and quick. Players stand away from each other. They only touch one another with quick punches (猛击) and kicks.
Can a Karate player beat a Judo player? It depends on the players. One sport is not better than the other. They are both very good forms of self-defense. Both aim toward control of the mind and body. A wise old man in Japan had a good answer to the question. He said, "We don't say the other martial arts of soldiers are bad. The mountain does not laugh at the river because it is lowly, not does the river speak ill of the mountain because it can't move about."

Why do people smoke? One reason is that people become addicted (有瘾) to cigarettes. The addictive substance (物质) in cigarettes is nicotine. When people smoke, the nicotine goes right into the blood stream and makes people feel relaxed. A smoker's body gets used to the nicotine and if he stops smoking, he feels nervous. Many smokers try to stop smoking, but because of the addiction to nicotine they feel so uncomfortable that they often find it too difficult to do so. Another reason is that people simply enjoy smoking. Having a cigarette for many people means taking a break. For .some people smoking becomes part of certain social rituals (礼节), for example, the cigarette after dinner. Many people enjoy smoking because it gives you .something to do with your hands. Reaching for a cigarette, lighting it, flicking (轻弹) the ashes are especially comfortable in situation where a person feels nervous.
Many people also like the taste of tar(焦油) in cigarettes. However, it is the tar that causes cancer (癌). While governments and health experts (专家) have tried to get people to give up smoking completely, cigarette manufacturers (制造商) have tried to keep selling them by producing cigarettes with less tar. Many people in Western countries have welcomed these cigarettes since they find it hard to stop smoking but want to reduce the danger to their health.

Each year, a half-million people die from smoking in China which in 1990 overtook the United States in the number of such deaths. And by the year 2025, 2 million Chinese will die each year from smoking and related diseases. Professor Weng cited (引用) a report from the World Health Organization (WHO, 世界卫生组织).
With Westerners increasingly dropping the habit, the smoking population in China is on a constant increase. "In 1964 the smoking population in America was 54 percent, which dropped to 26 percent by the year 1996. But China's smoking population is at least 30 times its number in the 1950s." Weng said.
Smoking has become a popular game, especially among young people and women.
Weng pointed out that women are more and more the targets of tobacco marketing campaigns. "As China witnesses (目睹) rapid change in women's roles, smoking among women is increasing, with most new smokers being educated women."
Weng said that in countries such as the United States, Britain － where female smoking was popular long ago － lung cancer caused by smoking has surpassed breast cancer (乳腺癌) , becoming the largest cancer-killer of women.
"At present only some 8 percent of Chinese women smoke, which has kept the total smoking population below 40 percent. If women in China insist on demanding the same rights as men, the figure will at least double the present one." Weng said.
6. In the first paragraph, "overtook" means "______" .
A. held B. caught up with C. added to D. overlooked
7. According to the report from the World Health Organization, by the year 2025, the death caused by smoking in China will be ______ times the present number.
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5

9. Among women in China, most new smokers ______.
A. live in mountain villages
B. have no children to feed
C. have good schooling
D. work too hard
10. Professor Weng thought that ______.
A. women should demand the right of smoking
B. it would be more dangerous for women to smoke
C. women in China should learn from the American women
D. no men cared about women's rights

An Announcement
It was a small town which lay by the coast. Most people there lived by catching fish. The hurricanes often struck the area from July to October. Some of the people died on the sea when their boats were blown over by the high winds. So they paid much attention to the weather forecasts(预报).They were afraid to meet with the hurricanes when they were catching fish on the sea.
