Italy
According to a recent study, there are now more dogs and cats in Italian homes than children. There are at least 14.5 million dogs cats in Italian homes compared with 8.7 million children under the age of 15．Italy has one of the lowest birth rates in Europe. A psychologist said that pets were loved by many young Italians who could not have or did not want to have children. In Italy, spending on pets has increased by 20 percent in the past five years.
US
The start of a new years is time when many Americans like to think about ways to make improvements for the future. But this year, instead of the usually New Year’s resolution(决心) to lose weight, quit smoking or exercise more, the US Department of Homeland Security is urging Americans to create a family emergency plan for any terror attack.
France & Iraq
The two French journalists who had been held hostage(扣为人质) in Iraq for 124 days were freed last week. Christian Chesnot, 37 and Georges Malbunot, 41, were kidnapped along with their Iraqi driver on Aug, 20 in Iraq. French Prime Minister, Jean-Pierre Raffarin, said that the French government had not paid ransom(赎金) for their release.

答案
小题1:C
小题2:C
小题3:B
小题4:A
解析
小题1:细节题，在US一节中提到美国人现在关注lose weight之类的问题，说明他们谈论的多的是健康问题。
小题2:细节归纳题，第一段谈论的是书籍的售卖情况，属于经济范畴；第二部分讲意大利人不愿意要小孩的问题，应该属于社会范畴；而第三段讲美国人关注健康问题，则是生活范畴，故此判断答案为C。
小题3:主旨大意题。第二部分讲意大利人不要小孩，以至于猫狗数目比孩子数目还多，B形象生动的概括了这个主题。
小题4:细节题，从were kidnapped along with their Iraqi driver on Aug, 20 in Iraq可以得到证明。

Everyone’s at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn’t done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction（网上拍卖）.
Buying for Beginners
Sign up on www. eBay. co. uk. Most items (e.g. tables, computers and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with “Buy It Now” and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away.
If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids (出价) for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish, you get an email telling you whether you have won the item.
How to Pay
Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a check or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card.
Selling Made Simple
If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends’ advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.
The big Things in Life
It’s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collectively sent by deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.
小题1:What is the passage mainly about?
| A．How to make payment online. | B．Ways of making delivery online. |
| C．Advantages of an online auction system. | D．How to use an online-auction system. |
| A．has chances to make higher bids | B．will get what he wants in ten days |
| C．should make payment immediately | D．may check its picture and description |
| A．through a local banking system | B．by sending the money to the seller |
| C．by paying the deliveryman directly | D．through an online payment system |

57. Joey and his friends always enjoy their weekend by attending late night activities. However, he hasn’t joined them for a long time because he has been working for a couple of weeks. This weekend he wants to have some fun and excitement with his friends, who are interested in western music.
58. Alice is a college student who studies music, and playing the piano is her favorite. Her parents approve of her attending concerts and pay for the tickets. As a result, she doesn’t care much about how much the ticket might cost.
59. Tracy is interested in a variety of music. Like most of the other university students, she has a part-time job. She would like to amuse herself by attending concerts. Since she does not earn much, she can only afford a ticket that costs no more than 100 yuan.

● Do the map reading if you"re being driven somewhere. It"ll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you" re traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you"ll have to move to the back seat.
● Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You"ll need a good map, a compass (指南针), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (应急现金). Tell someone where you"re going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.
● See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way.

Either way, it"s not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.
