最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。     Here are five letters from readers listed in 1-5. All the greetings and signatures are left out. Suppose
you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from
A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don"t need
to use.
     1. I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your
offering an opportunity to us beginners to practise using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain
these articles and translated them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.
     2. I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English
teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I"ve been giving you a bit of a plug at our
middle school. I told the students to "get a copy!" It"s good stuff! Fantastic!
      3. I"m one of Yao"s fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No.7 Crazy English
Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me?
Thank you very much indeed.
      4. First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who gave us a really
good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us
some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should
give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more
accurately. Thank you!
      5. I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the
position of the paper e.g., 总编 责任编辑 and so on. I hope you can help me to tell me the word in
English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, I
need study more information about this work, if you have time, please email me. Thank you.
     A. Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way
to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words
around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it"s good to look up the words and then mark them
down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try
using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.
     B. The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy
of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles
such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If
you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I"ll try to answer.
     C.The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write
him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in
sina. com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write Yao while he"s living and playing in
Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at:   Yao Ming   Compaq Centre 10  Houston, TX 77046
     D.Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you"re right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure
there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep
improving, so thank you.
     E. Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We
contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the
articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some
information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.
     F. Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We"re glad it"s helpful to your students. We always try to
include articles that reflect real life. It"s our hope that CR will not only improve student"s English but also
open up a different worldview.

阅读理解。     Honesty may well be the policy, but it often deserts us when no one is watching, psychologists report
today. Experiments with an honesty box to collect payments for hot drinks show that people are better at
paying up when under the gaze (注视) of a pair of eyes. The surprise was that the eyes were not real, but photographed.
     Researchers at Newcastle University set up the experiment in secret. They attached a poster to a
cupboard of mugs above an-honesty box alongside a kettle ,with tea, coffee and milk. Over 10 weeks,
they alternated each week between images of eyes and pictures of flowers.
Dr. Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study, said that even though the eyes were not real
they still seemed to make people behave more honestly. They effect may arise from behavioral
characteristics that developed as early humans formed social groups that increased their chances of
survival. Individuals had to co-operate for the good of the group, rather than act selfishly.
     "If nobody is watching us it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when we think we"re being
watched we should behave better, so people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards
us, "Dr. Bateson said.
     "We thought we"d get a slight effect with eyes, but it was quite striking how much difference they
made. Even at a subconscious (潜意识的) level, it seems people respond to eyes, and that might be
because eyes send a strong biological signal we have evolved (进化) to respond to."
     The finding, which researchers believe sheds light on our evolutionary past, could be turned to
practical use. The psychologists say images of eyes could promote ticket sales on public transport and
improve monitor systems to prevent antisocial behavior.1. This passage is mainly about _________.A. the policy of honesty            
B. an honesty box to collect money
C. evolution on honesty          
D. an experiment on honesty2. The reason for doing the experiment secretly is that the researchers ________.A. wanted to get a comparatively more exact result
B. had known they wanted to do something illegally
C. meant to get the co-operation of their colleagues
D. intended to sell the hot drinks at a higher price3. People behave honestly under watchful gaze of eyes because ________.A. they want to leave a good impression    
B. they fear to be laughed at by others
C. they"ve got the nature through evolution  
D. they take the photo for a real pair of eyes4. The underlined phrase" sheds light on" in the last paragraph means _____.A. causes somebody to become cheerful  
B. makes something easier to understand
C. comes upon something by accident      
D. brings something into the broad daylight

     Israel was happy, very happy. The news of a deal to bring home the kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit ,
a young man held prisoner by Hamas for five years,spread.
     But the happiness was hardened by the reality of the price Israelis had paid to set him free. The 1,027 Palestinian prisoners to be exchanged for the single Israeli corporal turned out to include men and women
convicted (宣判有罪) of some of the worst terrorist attacks in the country.
     "Ambivalent," says Aya Ilouz, of her feelings on the matter. Strolling in downtown Jerusalem with her
husband Liron and their 5-month-old daughter Yael, the couple is so in sync on the question of the day
that they finish each other"s thoughts.
     "Yes," says Liron, "we are very happy and excited to see Gilad meet his family. And on the other
hand-"
     "We are very concerned," says Aya.
     "About what happens next," Liron explains. "When the next terrorist blows himself up, someone will
have to answer."
     Just around the corner, on King George Street, Alan Bauer had been walking home with his son on
March 21, 2002, when a Palestinian man named Mohammad Hashaika exploded a suicide vest packed
with metal scraps. Eighty-four people were wounded that day. Of the three killed, one was a woman
pregnant with twins.
     Though the bomber of course died, Israeli courts convicted the two women who drove him to the site
of the bombing, easing his way past the Israeli checkpoint by buying flowers to carry in the Mother"s Day
crowd.
     "These women, as I speak, are being released," Bauer says.
     Specifics have a way of weakening the joy of Shalit"s release. Among the 477 prisoners released on
Tuesday, in the first phase of the exchange, are an organizer of the 2002 Passover bombing that killed 30
people; a woman who developed an online relationship with a lovesick Israeli youth she then had
murdered when he came to meet her; and the man who proudly displayed his bloody hands to the mob
(暴民) gathered outside the Ramallah building where two Israeli soldiers were beaten to death after
making a wrong turn onOct. 12, 2000.
     When the list became public, relatives of terrorism victims appealed, without success, to Israel"s
supreme court to prevent the prisoner exchange. The court hearing was interrupted repeatedly by upset
survivors, including Shvuel Schijveschuurder, who lost five of his family members in a 2001 attack at a
Jerusalem Sbarro. To protest the release of the woman who drove the suicide bomber to the pizza
restaurant, Schijveschuurder poured paint on a memorial to Yitzhak Rabin, the Prime Minister slain by an
Israeli extremist for signing the Oslo Accords.
     "When we say 1,027 prisoners will be released, it"s abstract, it doesn"t mean anything," says Eliad
Moreh Rosenberg, who was wounded in the 2002 terrorism bombing at the Hebrew University cafeteria. "But for victims of terror, it"s a reality."
     Israeli officials calculate that 60% of those released resume terrorism attacks. To help prevent that
resumption this time around, Israel insisted that most of the prisoners liberated be sent either to the Gaza
Strip - which is sealed off from Israel and under the control of Hamas, which says it continues to observe
a cease-fire - or into exile (流放) in Turkey, Qatar or Syria. About 100 arrived in the West Bank, where
the government led by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas works diligently to suppress
terrorism, cooperating with Israeli intelligence and military.
     With the future uncertain, on Tuesday, Jewish Israelis stopped and stared at televisions wherever they
came upon them. On the sidewalk at midmorning outside the 24-hour Hillel Market, 50 people were
gathered under a flat screen to catch the first images of Shalit, looking painfully thin . "It was moving. It
was very exciting," says Anat Rubin, 42. "I just saw photos of him getting out of the car. It gave me
chills." But she says she heard Hamas say that, learning from success, it was keen to kidnap more Israelis
in order to win freedom for the 6,000 Palestinians still in Israeli prisons. "I don"t want to see the photos of
them doing the V for victory," she says. "Like they won. They are really releasing murderers. I"m happy
and sad all together."

A. happy          
B. moved            
C. contradicted        
D. terrified
2.Why do the Israelis feel concerned about the exchange of prisoners?
