5、Some young soldiers who had recently joined the army were being trained in modern ways of fighting,and one of the things they were shown was how an unarmed man could trick an armed enemy and take his weapon away from him．First one of their two instructors took a knife away from the other,using only his bare hands;and then he took a rifle away from him in the same way．After the lesson,and before they went on to train the young soldiers to do these things themselves,the two instructors asked them a number of questions to see how well they had understood what they had been shown．One of the questions was this:“Well,you now know what an unarmed man can do against a man with a rifle．Imagine that you are guarding a bridge at night,and that you have a rifle．Suddenly you see an unarmed enemy soldier coming towards you．What will you do?”
The young soldier who had to answer this question thought carefully for a few seconds before he answered,and then said,“Well,after what I have just seen,I think that the first thing I would do would be to get rid of my rifle as quickly as I could,so that the unarmed enemy couldn't take it from me and kill me with it!”
The ending of the passage is__.

6、To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains．But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain．Its first use was as a shade against the sun．
Nobody knows who first invented it,but the umbrella was used in very ancient times．Probably the first to use it were the Chinese,way back in the eleventh century
B.
C.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade．And there was a strange thing connected with its use:it became a symbol of honor and authority．In the Far East in ancient times,the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.
In Europe,the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade．And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece．But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.
During the Middle Ages,the use of the umbrella practically disappeared．Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century．And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority．By 1680,The umbrella appeared in France,and later on in England.
By the eighteenth century,the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe．Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time,though they have become much lighter in weight．It wasn't until the twentieth century that women's umbrellas began to be made,in a whole variety of colors.
According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?

7、Key James,Secretary of Health and Human Resources in the Virginia State government,loves to turn the tables on those who don't think it's possible to be middle-class,conservative,educated and still be truly black．Once,during an abortion debate,a woman in the audience angrily told James she was so middle-class she didn't have a clue about real African American life．"If you understood what these women go through,"the woman said,"you would realize that abortion is their only choice."
James then asked the woman to consider a poor black mother on welfare．She already has four children and an alcoholic husband who has all but abandoned the family．Now she discovers another child is on the way．"How would you counsel that woman?"asked James.
"Have an abortion,"the woman responded．"That child would have a very poor quality of life."
"I have a vested interest in your answer,"James said．"The woman I described was my mother．I was the fifth of six children born into poverty．And,in case you're interested,the quality of my life is just fine!"
James'mother__.

8、The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them．To the surprise of his passenger,the ear did not slow down．Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put on his brakes at the last moment．The car stopped just in time.
"Sorry,I didn't notice the light．I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining."
This strange story is quite true．About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way;women are luckier--only about one in two hundred suffers from color blindness.
In some cases,a man may not be able to see deep red．He may think that red,orange and yellow are all the same as green.
People often like one color more than others．Blue is the color of the sky and sea．Green makes us think of fields and trees．Red is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger．Black is the color of night．In the dark we cannot see what is around us so we are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color.
One is considered as a color blind man if__.

9、Like every language,American English is full of special expressions,phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is“to face the music”．
When someone says,“well,I guess I’ll have to face the music,”it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant,like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that,and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed,but it has to be faced At sometime or another,every one of us has had to face the music,especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice,“I want to talk to you．”and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase“to face the music”is familiar to every American,young and old,It is at least 100 years old
．And where did this expression come from?The first explanation comes from the American novelist,James Fenimore Looper．He said,in 1851,that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on,they often said,“Well,it’s time to face the music．”And that was exactly what they did—facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps?hostile,especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not,there would be no play．So the expression“to face the music”come to mean“having to go through something,no matter how unpleasant the experience might be,because you knew you had no choice．”
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader,the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked
．Was their equipment clean,shinny enough to pass the inspection?Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do?
Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As,for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible,he is dishonored
．The band does not play．Only the drums tap a sad,slow beat．The soldier is forced to leave,facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse．
Which of the following is a situation of facing the music?

10、Laura was married for 6 months．Her husband was using drugs．She didn't want her son or her unborn baby to live that way,but she was afraid to ask her husband to leave．She left him a note instead．After reading the note,Laura's husband waited for her to come home and then beat her and her son.
Laura had little education and she never had a good paying job．She was ashamed to ask for help from the police,courts or women's shelters．Sometimes her husband was very nice to her．She decided to try harder so her children could have a home and a father．Laura joined a church and told a priest about her problem.

Laura got a lot of help from groups that help women who have been beaten．Now she is in college,has her own apartment and works on special projects at a women's shelter．"We got out,and it changed life for me and my child．You can do it．You can break the cycle,"Laura said.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

11、Online distance learning is an instructional system which connects learners with educational resources．Students work on their own at home,at work,or at school and communicate with faculty and other students by means of e-mail,electronic meetings,videoconferencing,chat rooms,instant messaging and other forms of computer-based communication．There are both advantages and disadvantages to online distance learning.
There are many benefits to using online distance learning environments．Online education is available all the time,anywhere and to all people．However,there are weaknesses for some learners．The online learner only has the written text and no other face-to-face hints．This may confuse the learner and cause misunderstanding．While distance learning allows for an openness,it is also difficult because it is done by e-mail messages and writing,and therefore may take more time than face-to-face learning．Sometimes the messages can be overwhelming for many online students.
Universities,colleges and schools use online distance learning environments．These are important for students who may be unable to attend classes for various reasons like illnesses or busy everyday schedules．Some learners just want to further their studies at home．They enjoy the convenience of home learning as they take regular programs or enrichment classes.
Online courses keep learners very occupied at all hours of the day．There are a great many messages and other online resources to read and respond to．Most learners have regular jobs or attend regular school classes on ground as well．However,the benefits are clear．Online distance learning is becoming very popular．Some online classes have become a profitable business as they replace regular traditional means of learning.
Which of the following is TRUE of the passage about online distance learning?
