1. Birth of Jesus This is how the birth of Jesus Christ took place. When Mary his mother was engaged to Joseph, before they were married, she became pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband was a righteous man. Because he didn’t want to humiliate her, he decided to call off their engagement quietly. As he was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child she carries was conceived by the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you will call him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” Now all of this took place so that what the Lord had spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled: Look! A virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, And they will call him, Emmanuel. (Emmanuel means “God with us.”) When Joseph woke up, he did just as an angel from God commanded and took Mary as his wife. But he didn’t have sexual relations with her until she gave birth to a son. Joseph called him Jesus. They had to travel to the city of Bethlehem to register for a census ordered by the Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus. Both Nazareth and Bethlehem are in the country now called Israel. It is about 65 miles (105 km) from Nazareth to Bethlehem, and the trip probably took them several days. When Joseph and Mary got to Bethlehem, there was no place for them to stay because the inn was already full. They ended up spending the night in a stable, a place where animals were kept. There was probably fresh hay on the floor that they used for beds. That night, Jesus was born. There was no crib, so they laid baby Jesus in a manger, a feeding trough for animals. The manger probably had fresh hay in it and made a nice bed for the baby. 1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?
A、Mary will save people from their sins.
B、Joseph was an irresponsible man.
C、Joseph and Mary ended up spending the night in a inn when they got to Berhlehem.
D、Joseph and Mary laid baby Jesus in a manger for there was no crib
What is the logical order of the following paragraph? The cloning of Dolly involved several steps. First, cells that had previously been taken from Dolly’s mother were starved for five days, which caused them to stop dividing. This interruption of the cells’ division cycle made it easier for them to reprogram themselves to start growing a new organism. After five days, the nuclei of these cells were removed and transferred into an unfertilized sheep egg, from which the natural nucleus had previously been removed. In the next step, the egg was grown in the laboratory for a period of time. Then the egg was implanted into a different sheep, where it grew normally. When the sheep finally gave birth, the lamb was an exact genetic copy, or clone, of the sheep that had provided the transferred nucleus, not of the sheep that had provided the egg.
A、Chronological order
B、Logical division of ideas
C、Cause and effect
D、Inductive method
E、Deductive method

The influence of advertising is felt in every phase of American life. (The advertiser made the cigarette synonymous with masculine virility and suave sophistication.) He gave birth to the multi-million dollar chewing gum industry by promising to double the public's pleasure and fun. Brand names for tooth-pastes, soaps, detergents, and deodorants have, through his efforts, become household expressions. Perhaps a public service was performed when advertisers were asked to convince the American public that it should eat horse mackerel. The advertising industry met this challenge by changing the horse mackerel's name to tuna fish.
Which of the following expresses the main idea?
A.Advertising molds public opinion.
B.The American public lacks taste.
C.The Federal Government should control advertisers.
D.Advertising increases the cost of living.

Tuesday morning, three days shy of her 57th birthday, she gave birth to twins-a boy and a girl-at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. The babies were delivered by Caesarean section. Born three weeks premature, they were taken to the neonatal nursery where both were re- ported to be doing well.
St. James is not married. She used an egg made available by a stranger and sperm reportedly donated by a former boyfriend to achieve the pregnancy. In response to media questions about why she had decided to have children at age 57 she responded, "It is never too late. You are never too old. It is just in your mind."
The doctors to whom she paid more than $ 25,000 for the treatments that resulted in her pregnancy apparently did not think she was too old. And her family, as well as a gaggle of reporters, deemed her upbeat answer (in addition to her healing work, St. James is a motivational speaker) a more-than-sufficient response. Her father, who is well into his '80s, said that he now has two big reasons to want to keep on living.
It is hard to even raise this question without seeming like a moral busybody. What right does anyone have to challenge the reproductive decisions of another person? But, that line of argument is simply wrong-headed. If decisions as important as when to have children are not open to ethical comment and discussion, then what is worthy of ethical analysis -- decisions about what color to paint the living room?
Let's think for a minute about what it means to have twins at 57. What it means is that when your twins are about to enter' high school, say at the age of 14, you are 71. Now I know that there are many grandparents who have successfully raised kids when the children's own parents could not. But it is one thing for two older people to deal with a difficult situation and make the best of it. It is quite different to deliberately create a situation where a single, 71-year-old parent who has been eligible for Medicare for seven years must deal with twins entering both puberty and high school.
The fact that St. James gave birth to twins aroused a big controversy because _________.
A.she is a celebrity.
B.she is unmarried.
C.she is 57 years old.
D.she has a famous sister.
