Part 3 Reading and Writing
VIII. Reading comprehension
A .True or false.
Nowadays, one of the most popular kinds
of communication on the Internet is through
personal Web sites called
blogs. Blog
is a shortened name for Web log. Anyone can crate
his or her own blog and update information to
their blogs
evry day. A blog may
contain stories or pictures, link to other Web
sites and get some
comments
（评价）
from
visitors.
Blogs offer a way to present
news or personal information. Blogs have become a
place for public expression on many
subjects. It is
estimated
（估计）
that there are
more than sixty million blogs around the world.
People who have blogs are
called
bloggers.
In
the
united
States,
many
people
have
blogs.
So
do
many
other
Americans,
including
teenagers
and
college students. Surely, some bloggers
are experts in their fields and forever have
invaluable contents to offer us. Most
of those bloggers are discussing new
ideas, hot topics from their life experiences.
Nevertheless, even famous bloggers
would run out of contents without
constant(
持续的
)learning. This
is one reason why many bloggers end up with
nothing
to write. However, they forget
this and think they have unlimited contents just
waiting to burst from their brain. Gradually,
they fail to own the fresh thoughts.
In
fact,
it
applies
everywhere:
Think
you’re
successful
in
your
sport?
Stop
practicing.
See
what
happens.
Your
English has been
improved to the gre
atest possible
level, but don’t want to learn something new?
You’ll soon be behind
others. In
today’s society, a degree tells little about what
you know. It does tell about what you can learn.
For instance, t
he
IT world
is constantly changing. Anything learnt today will
probably be useless in a few short years. The
point is to learn
to learn. Blogging
works exactly the same way. Never stop learning,
or your blog will close forever one day.
71. Everyone can design his
or her own blog and add information to their blogs
every day.
72. Blogs aren’t allowed to
connect to the other Web sites through the
Internet.
73. There are more
than six million blogs on many subjects around the
world.
74. Bloggers like to share their
fresh ideas, hot topics and express their personal
opinions.
75. Without constant learning
famous bloggers could still get the contents from
their brain.
76. In today’s society a
degree shows much about what you know.
77. People won’t get tired of your
blogging if you’re continuously improving
you
r writing.

Out of all of American’s symbols, none
has proved more famous than the Statue of Liberty.
This giant figure, torch
in hand and
standing on a stone base, has acted as the
American Dream for a century.
It’s
worth remembering that the
statue is a
reminder that the USA is a land of immigrants(
移民
)
：
indeed
it was New York Harbor where the first European
immigrants arrived and ended their
journey into the unknown and the hopeful beginning
of a new life.
The statue, which holds
a torch to light the world, was the creation of
the French sculptor Bartholdi, who
crafted(
精
心制作
)
it
a
hundred
years
after
the
American
Revolution.
Bartholdi
built
Liberty
in
Paris
between
1874
and
1884,
starting
with
a
model
and making
it
larger
four
times
to
its
present
size.
The
arm
carrying
the
torch
was
exhibited
in
Madison Square Park for seven years,
but the whole statue wasn’t officially accepted to
stand for the American people
until
1884. Then it was taken apart and shipped to New
York. Another two years passed before it could be
properly open
to the public. Money had
to be collected to fund(
资助
)
the construction of the base, and for some reason
it’s very hard to
collect this sum of
money. Nevertheless because of the great of a rich
man, Joseph Pulitzer, a keen supporter of the
statue,
raised all the money in the
end, and the statue of Liberty was formally
displayed by President Cleveland on October 28,
1886. The statue was closed for a few
years in the mid-1980s for repairs and, in 1986,
fifteen million people gathered on
Manhattan for the statue’s
centennial celebrations.
Today you can
climb steps up to the crown. Don’t be surprised if
there’s an hour
-long wait to enjoy the
journey.
Even if there is, Liberty
Park’s views of the lowe
r Manhattan
skyline are worth seeing because they are
definitely unique.
78. The
Statue of Liberty is located in __________
A. Washington
B.
Paris
C. New York
D.
Boston
