Our world is getting smaller and smaller. Miss Yamada, whose plane could cover eight hundred kilometers an hour, flew around the world in less than fifty hours. The newest planes could go 600 miles（one mile equals 1.609 kilometers) every sixty minutes, and we are now developing planes that are even faster.
But it used to take a lot longer to go around the world. Magellan's men were the first to make the trip. It took them more than two years to do so by ship.
Magellan was from Portugal，but he sailed for the king of Spain. On September 20, 1519, he left Spain with five ships and 240 men. After passing the tip of South America, they reached the Pacific Ocean. on which they sailed more man one year. very often they could not see a piece of land for months and they suffered greatly from the lack of food and fresh water. Many of them died of hunger and diseases. They even had to live on sawdust（锯末）．Finally in April 1521，Magellan got to the Philippine Islands, where he was killed. His men fled and continued their voyage across the Indian Ocean. It was with the greatest difficulty that they passed the Cape of Good Hope. By the time they returned to Spain on December 21，1521，seven out of every eight men had died.
Magellan's voyage proved that men could sail around the world and that our earth is but a huge ball.

After a few years of starting stories but never finishing them, Flavia Bujor decided it was time for her to complete something. So, she decided to write a novel --- at the age of12. She was 14 when the book was published
“Writing was a passion for me since I was very young,” said Bujor, now 15.
Bujor, who lives in Paris, was in New York last week for the American release（发行）of her book, The Prophecy of the Stones. It's the story of a young girl who imagines another world where three heroines band together with the help of some magical stones to save their land.
The book has made it onto best-seller lists in Europe. More than 20 publishers elsewhere in the world have bought the rights to publish it.
Success comes as a surprise to Bujor, who wrote the book just to see if she could. She would write a chapter and then hand the work to her family and friends to see if they liked it and thought she could continue.
“For me it’s like a dream,” said Bujor, a soft-spoken, slender, tall young woman with long brown hair. I really didn't think it was possible to publish it.”
The Prophecy of the Stones caught the attention of a French publishing house when a family friend sent in some pages Bujor had mailed to him for his opinion.
Since then. the novel has sold 20.000 copies in France and Italy, and more than 30,000 in Germany. In the United States. the first print run is 65,000 copies.
Bujor doesn't want to be seen only as a young adult author. She's already at work on her second novel, which she says will be nothing like her first.
Different. but also determined to be a normal teenager. That means promotional tours only during school holidays. continuing her schooling. and going on with plans to attend university. Her book royalties will be used to pay for that.

60. The reason why Bujor takes her success as a surprise is most probably that _____．
A. she didn't expect too much of her novel
B. she thinks the book is overvalued
C. her book is only an interesting story
D. she didn't write the book with enough passion
61. How did a French publishing house get to know about her novel?
A. She had a family friend working in the publishing house.
B. A family friend recommended the novel to the publishing house.
C. She mailed some pages of the book to the publishing house for their opinion.
D. The passage doesn't mention this.
62.. What is the most important proof the writer of the passage provides for Bujor's success?
A. The age at which she began writing
B. The numbers of copies sold.
C. Her skills of writing.
D. Her passion for writing.
63. Which of the following is true of Buior's second book?
A. It will be a continued part to her first novel
B. It will tell a different story of the same type as the first one.
C. She is no longer writing it with passion.
D. She doesn't want her second book a twin of the first

C
Scientists have discovered an unusual tip for parents who want their kids to grow up to be musical geniuses（天才）一teach them Chinese Putonghua.
Experts at the University of California in San Diego have found that children who learn Chinese Putonghua as babies are far more likely to have perfect pitch. That's the ability to name or sing a musical note at will. They're better than those raised to speak English. Perfect pitch, though common among the great composers, is extremely rare in Europe and the US. Just one in 10,000 there is thought to have the skill.
Diana Deutsch, who led the research, believes the explanation lies in the different use of tones in the two languages. The meaning of English words does not change with tone; the same is not true for Chinese Putonghua.
Deutsch discovered the connection when she tested the first-year students from the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing. All of them spoke Chinese Putonghua. She also tested students at the Eastman School of Music in New York，who all spoke English.
Each of the students was asked to name 36 notes played at random（随机）from a keyboard. The researchers found that of the students who began music lessons between the ages of four and five, 14 per cent of Americans had perfect pitch. That was compared with 60 per cent of Chinese. When children began music lessons later in life, their chances of having perfect pitch dropped dramatically
"The findings support the idea that babies can acquire perfect pitch as part of learning a language, which can later generalize to musical tones," said Deutsch.
But while learning Chinese Putonghua appears to give children a better chance of developing perfect pitch，some parents might appreciate a simpler method.
A good alternative, Deutsth said, might be to let babies play with keyboards with different notes labeled or colored. As with language, learning perfect pitch is likely to be easier around the ages of 6 to 18 months.
The British composer Michael Berkeley said, “If you are using a language where pitch is so much more important, your whole perception（感觉）of pitch would be more accurate. The musicality of a language does make it easier to understand pitch.”
64. Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?
A. Chinese Putonghua, a language to be learned by musicians
B. Musical Chinese Putonghua
C. Chinese music and US music
D. Perception of pitch
65. What does the word "pitch" in the passage most probably mean?
A. A set of keys on the keyboard.
B. A group of high notes in music
C. A set of rules of music.
D. The ability to play or sing a note correctly.
66. The reason why Chinese children acquire better pitch is that _____.
A. they speak a language more related to music
B. their parents aim higher for their music talent
C. they began music lessons earlier
D. Chinese is a language more difficult to learn than English
67. Which of the following are effective ways to give children better chances of developing perfect pitch?
(a) Teach them Chinese Putonghua
（b) Have them play with keyboards with different notes labeled or colored.
（c) Let them learn English early.
( d ) Let them start music lessons early.
（e) Let them notice the different use of tones in English.
A.（a)，(b)，（d) B. (a)，（c)，(d) C.（b)，（d)，(e) D.（b)，（C)，(e)
