Ever wanted to hold them in your hands? They are always lost when they meet your hands. Well, this is not just a problem for you. It was a problem for Wilson Bebtley, too. In the 1870s, Wilson Bebtley was just a teenager. His family lived in a small town in Bentley. His family lived in a small town in northeast America. Winters there were long and hard. Bentley’s mother was once a school teacher. She taught him at home. Bentley didn’t go to school until he was 14. he was a quiet boy, and loved reading his mother’s books. But it was his mother’s microscope (显微镜) that interested him. When the other boys were playing with balls, little Bentley was studying things like drops of water, flowers and snowflakes. Bentley loved watching snowflakes .For the next two years, young Bentley spent many winter days in a cold room watching these ice crystals (晶体) under his microscope. The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw pictures of them. But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all. How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera. The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But, his father didn’t agree. He thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming. But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a year he tried to take pictures of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of an ice crystal with his camera. “It was the greatest moment of my life,”Bentley said later. For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos of ice crystals.Later he became known as “Snowflake” Bentley. 61. What would be the best title for this passage? A.

According to the research, computer users today are too busy to hit the “shift” buttons on their keyboards — e-mails are often written in lower case, that is to say, with no capital letters (大写字母) for names or the beginning o sentences. Spelling mistakes are generally accepted even in formal e-mails. And nouns are often used as verb (e.g. Please bookmark this site) . With the development of the Internet, e-mail and mobile phone messages, a new language has developed within just a few years — we call it Weblish. The latest Oxford English Dictionary has included many new words showing the changes in our communication culture. While some language experts care about the future of English and want to do something, John Simpon, chief editor of the dictionary says, “The standards may be different now but it has certainly encouraged writing and communication, which means a faster development of language change. There are a large number of words that either come from the Internet or have been given new meanings by the Internet.” 65. According to the research, people often write e-mails in lower case to ________ . A. save time B. show kindness C. make fun D. be different 66. The second paragraph mainly tells us _________ . A. the mistakes found in English e-mails B. the side effects of the use of e-mail C. the changes in English used in e-mails D. the reason why people use e-mails 67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Spelling mistakes are not allowed in today’s e-mails. B. The Internet develops new words as well as new meanings to some old words. C. Weblish is only used in e-mails. D. We cannot find Weblish in a dictionary at present. 68. According to the passage, John Simpson probably agrees that ________ . A. the use of e-mail stops the development of language B. mistakes in e-mails are very important to English C. everyone should learn to write e-mails in Weblish D. the Internet has brought great changes to English C The 2008 National Year of Reading is a year-long celebration of reading, in all its forms.
