　　Despite the cold morning wind in Montreal last weekend, Ahmad Al-Bahely was busy handing out candies．He was overjoyed at hearing that Saddam Hussein had been sentenced to death．

　　“That’s how we celebrate in Iraq, ” said the 15-year-old high school student．Al-Bahely’s family was forced to leave Iraq in 1991 after the first Gulf War．They fled life under Saddam Hussein for a new beginning in Canada．“We are proud that this terrible man will get what he deserves．”

　　An Iraqi court has sentenced Saddam, 69, to death after a 13-month trial．He was found responsible for the killings of 148 people in a village, north of Baghdad in 1982．The murders were carried out in revenge for an attempt on Saddam’s life．

　　Thousands of Iraqis oppressed during Saddam’s 24-year rule took, to the streets to celebrate．Meanwhile, groups near Saddam’s hometown of Tikrit gathered to support the former president．“We’ll avenge you, Saddam, ” the crowd shouted．

　　But many simply remained calm．“Whether Saddam lives or dies is not important to me?, ” said Imad Mohammed, a computer engineer．“I’m not even sure whether my family and I will live or die．”

　　Iraqis were not the only ones to have different views on the court’s decision．The international community was also divided over the sentence．

　　US President George W．Bush called the trial a milestone in the Iraqi people’s efforts to replace a tyrant with the rule of law．But many European countries said Saddam should not be put to death．The Catholic Church called the sentence “eye for an eye” revenge．

　　“This is not the way to present the new Iraq to the world．It should be different from the way of Saddam, who was behind hundreds of thousands of deaths, ” said an Italian organization opposed to the death penalty．

　　Islamic leaders warned that hanging Saddam could lead to revenge by Saddam’s supporters, deepening the rift(不和)in the war-torn country．According to new research by a leading US university, over 650,000 Iraqis have been killed since the 2003 Iraq War began．

　　“They blame Saddam for killing people．But who will judge the leaders for the killings that happen every day now?” said 30-year-old Bahjat．He refused to give his full name out of fear．

　　“The sentence is just an important settlement with the past, but the big challenge for Iraq’s people is the future．Big compromises are required for lasting freedom and secured peace, ” said Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt．

　　It is unbelievable how popular English is in Venezuela (委內瑞拉). Now we have a kind of language mixture between English and Spanish.

　　In the Venezuelans' daily conversations, they often use English words with Spanish verb endings. For example, if they send a fax, they use the word faxear, or if they have to click on the screen of their computer, they say clickear.

　　Also, they use simple English words in some Spanish sentences. You might hear someone say,“Voy a comprar unos jeans in el mall”which means“I'm going to buy some jeans in the mall,”or“Okey, vamos”which means“OK, let's go.”

　　In addition, you see English names everywhere for restaurants--Crystal Ranch, stores--Area Company, gymnasiums--Sport Center, Althletic Center, malls--The Country, and night clubs--Studio Fifty Four. In Caracas(加拉加斯), there is very fashionable neighborhood named Las Merce des, where each street has an American name like New York or Fifth Avenue. Therefore, when you go shopping, you can see signs in English in the windows of stores, such as On Sale.

　　In some Latin American countries, the increasing influence of English is a question often argued about. But in Venzuela, however, this is not the case.

閱讀理解

　　Forget Miami, Los Angeles and New York．The next big Latin music explosion is on its way in secondary markets across the United States, and the numbers are there to back it up．Among all genres(種類),Latin music was the only one registering growth in 2005．From tiny Vero Beach in northern Florida to Des Moines, Iowa, in the heart of the Midwest, from Charlotte, N．C．to Salt Lake City, Latin music sales are skyrocketing．

　　Wilson says there are two major reasons for the increase．One is simply the Hispanic(說西班牙語國家的)population's increase in specific areas, which encourages stores to carry Latin product for the first time．Second, and perhaps more important, is the fact that major companies－whether dealing in music or not－are addressing the Latin consumer at a corporate(公司的)level, creating Latin departments and hiring Latin ad agencies．One of Handleman's suburban Detroit stores, for example, has expanded its Latin section four times in the last two years．Cities like Milwaukee and Des Moines are now stocking Latin product．

　　Besides, it also results from economic development．It goes something like this：More often than not, a city or country with a seeming important Hispanic population will suddenly expand its construction or offer affordable housing to those working in larger, neighboring cities．This attracts lower-income workers, many of whom are Latin．Small shops and groceries begin to stock a small selection of music．When the Latin population numbers reach a critical mass, the local mass merchant, if there is one, begins stocking the product．Sooner or later, a local radio station follows; first AM, then FM．Sometimes it's a cable TV show or a small TV station．

　　Of course, there are other driving forces that should not be forgotten, for example, regional Mexican music．

(1)

The passage mainly tells readers ________．
[　　]
A．	that more and more Americans like Latin music
B．	what makes Latin music develop fast in American market
C．	why Latin music becomes Americans' favorite music
D．	that Latin music is bringing in more benefits for Americans

(2)

The underlined word "skyrocketing" in the first paragraph means
[　　]
A．	changing very quickly
B．	disappearing slowly
C．	recovering slowly
D．	increasing very quickly

(3)

According to the third paragraph, which shows the right relations among the following things? ①economic development ②more Latin workers ③shops' stock of Latin music ④local radio station ⑤small TV station ⑥the development of Latin music
[　　]
A．
B．
C．
D．

(4)

Suppose that passage doesn't finish, which of the following may be discussed next?
[　　]
A．	The variety of Latin music in America．
B．	The economic development in Hispanic area．
C．	The historic development of regional Mexican music．
D．	The driving forces of regional Mexican music．

閱讀理解

　　Not long ago, I spent the morning having coffee with Kanzi．He invited me．Kanzi is a bonobo, which is a close cousin of the chimpanzee．Researchers say Kanzi knows 384 words．But he probably knows more．He uses paper boards displaying colorful symbols that stand for the words．Kanzi can build thoughts and sentences by pointing at the boards．

　　Sue Rumbaugh joined Kanzi and me for coffee．She is a zoologist at the Great Ape Trust which is a research center in Des Moines, Iowa, where Kanzi lives．The Great Ape Trust is

　　home to seven bonobos．They have been raised from birth with both spoken language and symbols as part of each day·

　　Scientists are discovering that humans are not the only animals that can use language or tools, or have feelings．Crows(烏鴉)are good at using tools, for example．In an experiment crows proved good at using some materials to create a hook(鉤子)．They used the hook to fish a basket of food out of a container．Monkeys practice charity．A former study showed that monkeys would share food with monkeys who are familiar to them rather than keeping all the food for themselves．Elephants mourn their dead．If they find elephant bones, they would gently examine them with what looks like sadness．

　　Scientists have also found that the way animals hunt and live together may drive intelligence higher．Animals behave most cleverly when they are hunting for food together．Last year, Christilie Drea, an animal biologist, conducted an experiment in hyena(鬣狗)cooperation．She placed food on a platform．The animals could get the food only if they pulled on a strong thick string together．In less than two minutes, the hyenas figured out that cooperation was the key to success．

　　Research is showing that animals are surprisingly intelligent．Our pets may know more than we ever imagined．And that is raising questions about how we treat them．Can animals feel? Should they be kept in zoos? What do you think?

(1)

According to fhe first paragraph, Kanzi _________．
[　　]
A．	makes tea for the writer
B．	speaks human language

A．	Kanzi began to learn as soon as he was born
B．	The writer used to have coffee in the morning
C．	The Great Ape Trust is owned by Sue Rumbaugh．
D．	Pet animals are much cleverer than wild animals

(3)

What does the underlined word “mourn” mean?
[　　]
A．	To be careless of something．
B．	To be afraid of something．
C．	To show sadness．
D．	To show anxiety．

(4)

What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
[　　]
A．	Animals are good at searching for food and getting them．
B．	Animals can be as intelligent as humans in some ways．
C．	Humans can learn more from animals．
