Should we try to contact and make friends with other beings in the universe? Certainly not，says British physicist Stephen Hawking．

“If aliens（creatures from other planets）ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out very well for the Native Americans,’’ said the 68-year-old disabled scientist in a new Discovery documentary (纪实性电视节目) on April 25．

The program pictures an imagined universe where other life forms in huge spaceships hunt for resources after using up all those on their home planets．

“Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads(游牧民)，looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach，”warned Hawking．

On the probability of other life forms existing, he says, “To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly reasonable.”

Hawking’s concerns have frightened some people and been met with disagreement from other researchers．Paul Davies, author of the book Renewing Our Search for Alien Intelligence，thinks Hawking’s reasoning is wrong.

He argues that since Earth is about 4.5 billion years old，if intel1igent life is likely , communities of other beings may have been there for a very long time．

“If resources are the factor, then at least one group of aliens would surely have visited Earth as a destination mil1ions of years ago．

Even if other life forms do come to Earth in the near future, Davies believes comparisons with are wide of the mark(离谱的).

68. What is the article mainly about?

A. Other life forms coming to our planet．

B. Scientific evidence of other life forms．

C. Earth as the only place where human beings can survive．

D. Hawking’s belief that other life forms may exist in the universe．

69. Which of the following ideas is opposed to Hawking’s view?

A. Other life forms exist in the universe．

B. 0ther life forms may be more intelligent than human beings．

C. We should try to contact other 1ife forms from other planets．

D. Other life forms may exist in more than one part of the universe．

70. Paul Davies didn’t agree with Stephen Hawking ,believing that ________．

A. the universe is running out of resources

B. humans are the best creatures in the universe.

C. it is a good idea to avoid meeting with other life forms

D. Davies doesn’t think it proper to compare aliens with Columbus

71. Hawking referred to Christopher Columbus as an example to ____．

A. inspire interest in the universe

B. draw attention to other planets in the universe

C. warn people to watch out for other life forms

D. urge further exploration of the universe~

When I opened my closet door this morning, I saw a sign that says, “Good morning, beautiful business.” It’s a reminder to me of just how beautiful business can be when we put all our creativity, energy, and care into producing one product or service in exchange for another. Economic exchange can be one of the most meaningful and beautiful interactions among human beings.

Over the past years since I started the White Dog Café, my business has not only provided me with a way of making a living and a way of serving others but also been my teacher. In reading Small Is Beautiful I realized that so much of what my business has taught me can be found in the great lessons of E.F. Schumacher: it is of great benefit to keep your business focusing on the needs of workers rather than only on what they produce; you’d better use a management style that balances freedom and order; you should build sustainable local economies and respect the land and nature. The effects of industrialization that worried Schumacher decades ago have gotten even worse: namely, wealth inequality and the growing degradation (退化) of our environment.

Today much of what I care about ---nature, animals, communities, family farms, family businesses, native cultures, the character of our towns and cities, even　 our children’s future---is being threatened by corporate globalization. To protect all that I care deeply about, I need to step out of my own company, out of the White Dog Café. I started my journey with the simple idea that a sustainable global economy must be compromised of sustainable local economies. Rather than a global economy controlled by large international corporations, our movement advocates a global economy with a network of local economies made up of small independent businesses that create community wealth while working in harmony with natural system.

I opened the White Dog Café in 1983 on the first floor of my house in a neighborhood of Philadelphia. It is the house I have lived in since I was a child. Today much of the food I serve at the White Dog Café comes from the same land where my ancestors once farmed. When I opened the café years ago, it was a simple coffee and cake take-away shop serving students who lived nearby. Over the years we have expanded our menu and grown to occupy five buildings. We now employ more 100 people, can seat more than two hundred customers, and earn over $5 million a year! I owe our success to making decisions not for the purpose of maximizing profits but instead maximizing the relationships with our customers and staff, with our community, with our suppliers and with our natural environment.

Now I still live above the shop. I still have the old-fashioned way of doing business---the way it was in the old days with the family farm, the family inn, and the corner store. Living and working in the same community has given me a stronger sense of place and a different business outlook. When I make a business decision, it comes naturally for my decision to be made in the common interest of all involved because every day I see the people affected by my decision---my neighbours, my customers, and my employees as well as the natural world. There is a short distance between the business decision-maker and those affected by the decision. I believe that when we are surrounded by those affected by our decisions, we are more likely to make a decision from the heart as opposed to the head.

Business schools teach “grow or die”. But I make a conscious decision to continue to be a small business because I know that when we grow in physical size, we give up something very important ---authentic relationships with the people around us and those we do business with. I have come to realize that we can measure our success by measuring how much we improve our knowledge, deepen our relationships, achieve happiness, and have more fun.

They say that "seeing is believing", but when it comes to TV commercials, this is not always the case.

The world's leading mobile phone maker, Nokia, released its latest model Lumia 920 on Sept. 5. The smart phone was supposed to possess an advanced camera, which let customers shoot better pictures at night and record stabilized videos. To show how well these features work, the Finnish company released an ad showing a man and a woman riding bicycles side by side, with the man taking a video of the woman on the phone. However, several hours later, technology website The Verge uncovered that the video was neither shot with the new product, nor shot from someone riding a bicycle. Instead, someone in a lorry next to the woman took the video using a professional video camera.

The next day Nokia apologized, "In an effort to demonstrate the benefits of visual image stabilization, we produced a video that simulates（看起来像）what we will be able to deliver." Indeed, what we have seen in ads is more or less a simulation——a practice called "advertising photography".

McDonald's video in June explained the "art". It showed how its burgers get dolled up（装扮）before going on camera. Like models preparing for a magazine cover shoot, burgers also get designed in a photography studio. They are prepared for hours and put together with absolute precision so they look their best before photo shoots. Each ingredient, such as onions and sauce, is carefully put into place to make the burger look much juicier, bigger and tastier. Computer software Photoshop is also used to add visual effects.

So don't feel ____________________when you get a burger that never looks like what you see in ads.

1. What do the underlined words "the case" in Paragraph l refer to? （within 5 words）

2. For what purpose did Nokia create the video? （within 8 words）

3.Why did Nokia apologize based on the text? （within 10 words）

4.Why does the author give the example of McDonald's video in Paragraph 4? （within 10 words）

5.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words.（within 2 words）
